Sometimes Ye Qiu feels that Ancelotti is a very stubborn and stubborn person in his bones.

Perhaps it's because the Italian has always given people the feeling of going with the flow, adapting and at the same time somewhat resigned, especially during his time at AC Milan, when almost the entire team transfer power was in the hands of the management, and he didn't have much say in it, let alone complain.

But after coming to Chelsea, Carlo Ancelotti insisted on his opinions and ideas on many things.

For example, the team's 442 tactics, almost since Ancelotti came to the Premier League, he has been adhering to the 442 tactics, and in his first season, Chelsea's diamond midfield has indeed achieved good results and results, but gradually, everyone began to realize the flaws of the diamond midfield.

In other words, the diamond midfield is no longer suitable for the current football tactics, you play a weak team, relying on the strength advantage to crush the opponent, that's okay, but once you meet a strong team, and continue to insist on the diamond midfield, it will be worth the loss.

Carlo Ancelotti has made some changes to the squad this season, he no longer plays in the diamond midfield, and even at first glance the 442 tactics seem to have changed, such as this game against Tottenham Hotspur, he arranged three midfielders in front of the backline, Frank Lampard, Mikel and Essien, and then in front of the combination of Arshavin and Anelka, with Drogba at the front.

At first glance, it seems to be a 4321 Christmas tree formation, but in fact, in the game, Anelka is still cruising on the two wings, Arshavin is ambushed behind the two strikers, and the three midfielders behind Mikel are still dragging behind to organize and play the ball, taking on responsibilities similar to those of Pirlo during the AC Milan period.

If you think about it in this way, then Essien is Gattuso and Lampard has to take on the role of Seedorf.

Of course, the technical characteristics of different players are different, but in general it is basically like that, only the details have changed.

At the back, Ashley? Cole, John Terry, Branislav Ivanovic and Pacos Ferreira form the defence, with Cesar in front of goal in what has been Chelsea's main backline duo this season.

Tottenham Hotspur also made some changes to their starting line-up for this game, and the changes were not small, as Cesc Fabregas and Marcelo were both injured and sidelined, making it necessary for Tottenham to make some changes.

Ye Qiu surprised many people in the choice of the starting lineup, the goalkeeper is Cech, there is no suspense, but the left-back chose the Serbian central defender Nastasic, who performed well after playing in the second half when he played Birmingham in the last round, which surprised many people.

Let's not say that Marcelo is only slightly injured, even if Marcelo really can't play, but there is also an Alba, why go to Nastasic? Could it be that Ye Qiu wants to play defense in this game?

With Cesc Fabregas's injury, Ye Qiu has obviously changed the previous midfield pattern, bringing David? Silva moved to the left wing-back position, standing in front of Nastasic, while Messi was moved to the middle of the field, Ribery was deployed in the right winger position, and then Yaya? Toure and David Beckham form a double midfield, with the Ivorian up front and Beckham behind to form a very irregular midfield position.

In Ye Qiu's explanation and analysis, this belongs to a variant of the 433 tactic, or it can also be regarded as the 4231 tactic, but the difference is that the left back of Tottenham Hotspur is relatively backward, the left side is basically not pressed, and Alves on the right side is pressed higher.

I believe that when most people get this starting lineup list of Tottenham Hotspur, the shock level will not lose to Ancelotti, because in such an important game, it is indeed a bit too much to arrange Nastasic, a young player, and Beckham, a veteran, to start at the same time.

"Maybe Ye Qiu will encounter his first Waterloo of the season at Stamford Bridge!"

I believe that there are many people who think this way, but it is surprising that at the beginning of the game, it was Tottenham Hotspur who scored first, and the way of scoring was very eye-catching.

Tottenham Hotspur started the game with a round of attacking from the right, which was not surprising, but it didn't work, Tottenham knocked back, Alves crossed to Beckham, and the Englishman appeared around Arshavin and Anelka, both players only symbolically defending.

Beckham's Full Moon Scimitar, a wide diagonal pass, diverted to the left, and fell to David? Silva's feet.

The Spaniard rushed forward quickly after winning the ball, obviously going towards Ferreira, while Essien immediately leaned to the wing, and Ferreira also turned his attention to David? Silva's body, after all, the Spaniard used to play left winger when he was in Valencia, and even pressed Vicente on the bench at one point.

The ball moves from the right to the left, David? Silva attracted the attention of Essien and Ferreira with his quick dribbling, while Messi in the middle left Mikel's defense at high speed, leaning to the left, diagonally inserting the gap between Ferreira and central defender Branislav Ivanovic, forcing Mikel to follow to the left.

When David? When Silva passed the ball to Messi's feet, the Argentine superstar, who cut from the middle to the wing, suddenly accelerated, used his individual ability, directly attacked the Chelsea backline, faced Ivanovic, forced a breakthrough, and rushed behind Ivanovic.

At the same time as Messi cut out, Cavani also pulled Terry to the front of the big penalty area, Terry had no choice but to choose to follow, otherwise, Messi made a cross, and Cavani in the middle of the front of the big penalty area was unguarded, because Mikel had gone to the left side.

So, when Messi was on the left side of the penalty area, forced a breakthrough through Ivanovic, and crossed the low flat ball, it happened to be behind Terry, and it seemed to be aimed at Ashley? Cole went, but just when the England left-back thought he could clear the ball with a big foot, Ribery cut into the box diagonally from the right rib at high speed and grabbed Ashley? Before Cole, out of the foot of a bucket.

The ball is in!!!!!!!

"Wow!!!" The stands of the entire White Hart Lane Stadium suddenly boiled!

"In less than two minutes of the opening period, Tottenham Hotspur knocked on the Chelsea goal first, 1:0!"

'It was too fast, Tottenham's goal came so fast that Chelsea simply didn't have time to organise the defence!'

Andy? Gray was surprised by Tottenham's second attack after the opening kick-off, but as he watched the slow-motion replays of the game, it dawned on him that Tottenham's attack was actually exploiting Chelsea's wide and midfield positioning.

No matter how strange Ye Qiu's arrangement in this game was and how he adjusted it, he actually went for this purpose.

By David? Silva's side pulled Essien to the maximum area close to the left touchline, leaving the middle of the midfield free, while Alves and Ribery's side clearly wanted to force down Chelsea's most attacking left side and force you Ashley? Cole didn't dare to go up.

By doing so, Chelsea's attack lacks width and much of its threat is lost.

At the same time, because Arshavin is not active enough defensively, Beckham will get more space at the back, and Yaya? Toure, Alves and Ribery were enough to overpower Frank Lampard and Ashley? Cole, and he has to have a numerical advantage, unless Carlo Ancelotti pulls either Anelka or Drogba back.

The numerical advantage allows Beckham to get plenty of space to play in the midfield position, and at the same time, his ability to accurately dispatch long passes allows Tottenham Hotspur to move left and right to the maximum extent, allowing Chelsea's tactics to toss back and forth, and this left-right movement itself is creating a loophole.

Messi plays in the middle, but cuts out, in fact, to take advantage of this hole, and then rely on his own strong personal ability to impact these holes, and then break down the opponent's defense, just like this time, he is from the middle to the left, and then to force the impact of Ivanovic, using his personal ability to eat the opponent, dismantle the defense, and then pass to Ribery to form an assist.

'Very smart, very targeted, straight to the heart of Chelsea!' Andy? Gray figured this out, and had to speak highly of Ye Qiu's bold change of formation in this game, maybe without Fabregas's absence, he might not be willing to gamble like this, but Fabregas's absence, coupled with Marcelo's injury, made Ye Qiu make this decision.

The right side suppresses your strongest left side, but my left side gives way, and you have the ability to let Ferreira or Essien attack!

'The situation is very bad for Chelsea, it's up to Carlo Ancelotti to adjust!'

With Andy? Gray's words, the live camera switched to Chelsea's head coach Ancelotti, the Italian stood on the sidelines and kept directing the team, and not far from him, in front of the home team's coach's box, Ye Qiu was clasping his hands in front of his chest, looking like he was winning.

"The weather in London today is very cold, Ancelotti is dressed very seriously, black suit, white shirt and black tie, some media joked before the game, saying that Ancelotti is reloading this time, while Ye Qiu is a casual suit with a knitted sweater, with a scarf wrapped around his neck, which has won the affirmation of reporters, thinking that it is more casual and relaxed."

Andy? Gray was also joking with the two head coaches, "Now it seems that as expected by many close Chelsea media, the scene of Ancelotti strangling Ye Qiu with a scarf did not appear, but the relaxed and casual Ye Qiu broke through the goal of Ancelotti, who was like a big enemy, while talking and laughing!" ”

"In fact, as early as the pre-game press conference, when Ye Qiu heard that Ancelotti was going to make changes, he once joked that unless Chelsea made huge changes, otherwise, the subtle changes have no meaning, just like rearranging seats on the Titanic that is about to hit the iceberg, is it meaningful?"

'Now it seems that the core problem of Chelsea has not changed much, and the wings are still weak!

With Tottenham Hotspur knocking on Chelsea's goal first, the Blues have suffered setbacks in the past four games, and the team's morale has dropped much from the beginning of the season, and what is worse is that many of Chelsea's players are now in significantly poor form, such as Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka, Arshavin and Frank Lampard, who have only scored once in the last four games, which is a comparison to the beginning of the season.

The players are not in good shape, the manager is not fresh in the line-up, and the overall squad is similar to last season, so in this situation, even if Carlo Ancelotti can play a flower with the Chelsea line-up, what can you change?

So, with the goal, Tottenham Hotspur began to dominate the game and firmly controlled the initiative of the game, while Chelsea had to choose to shrink the defense and play counter-attack.

Tottenham Hotspur's game strategy is indeed as good as Andy's? As Gray put it, using the wings to tug at Chelsea's squad and force their players to move back and forth.

In the 37th minute, Tottenham Hotspur, who had been attacking for half an hour, had another chance, Alves pulled to the right sideline to receive a long pass from Beckham, and met Ashley? Cole's block, passed back to Yaya? Toure.

The Ivorian rushed forward with the ball and gave it to Messi, and after the Argentine took the ball with his back, he picked up a pass to the left, David? After Silva shook off Ferreira one-on-one from the left side and picked up a pass behind Ivanovic, Cavani did not waste such an opportunity, grabbed the penalty from close range, 2:0!

The succession of goals, almost the same routine, just by different players, was a serious blow to the morale and morale of the Chelsea players, as they found that Tottenham Hotspur seemed to be pinching their seven inches and dead holes, constantly attacking, forcing them to retreat.

At half-time, Chelsea did not make any substitutions, Ancelotti now has not many substitutions available, and he does not dare to play as an attacking player, so he can only choose to maintain the status quo and make local adjustments.

But in the case of the overall situation being suppressed or even ****, the adjustment of local details can no longer change anything.

In the second half, Tottenham Hotspur attacked twice in succession, in the 64th and 79th minutes respectively, with Lionel Messi and Edinson Cavani scoring for Tottenham Hotspur to help Tottenham Hotspur beat Chelsea 4-0 at home.

And if you look carefully at the whole process of these goals, you can almost not scrutinize those details, just look at the routine, almost all four goals are the same routine, that is, to suppress the left side of Chelsea with the strongest attacking right side, and then suddenly a shift, the ball from the right side to the left side.

And then it's either David? Silva cut inside on the side, or Messi's outside the middle, in short, the unlucky one is Ferreira, the Portuguese was **** by these two players for almost the whole game, and then used the right side of Chelsea to pull out a central defender, and then passed the ball into the small penalty area to help his teammates who were inserted behind him to score.

It is this simple but not simple attacking routine, which is repeated again and again throughout the game, and Ancelotti has nothing to do about it.

'It's a game Chelsea can't afford to lose, but Tottenham Hotspur has a very easy win!'

Andy? Gray has a very different feeling about this game, especially in the past few years, he has indeed experienced everything about Chelsea, from the sudden peak of Ye Qiu's coaching at the beginning of the century, to the rapid decline later, and to the embarrassing situation this season, he has seen it in his eyes.

'Chelsea's problems have been clear since last season, they did well last season, but everybody knows they need to make changes, they need to make adjustments, but there are a lot of problems, for example, Carlo Ancelotti seems to be stubborn, but few people imagine what high level of signings Abramovich has brought to Chelsea over the years?

"Arshavin, Ramirez, these two players are okay, but are there any more?"

"In the case of unfavorable recruitment, Chelsea have directly sold a number of players in the team, such as Ballack, Belletti, Joe Cole, and basically free transfers, of course, we know very well that this is a strategy for Chelsea to save money and maintain the club's finances, but the question is, how do you maintain the thickness of your bench after selling so much?"

Although the game is not over yet, Chelsea have been knocked down, not to mention the poor form of the whole game, and there is a desperate lack of fighting spirit, if Ancelotti does not come up with a better and more effective way, Chelsea is likely to suffer a collapse in the devil's schedule.

"I remember that Ye Qiu and Ferguson both said that if a team wants to win the championship, it must ensure that its team squad not only has a high-level main lineup, but also must have enough reliable and trustworthy bench thickness, and Chelsea during Ye Qiu and Mourinho's time, there are two reliable players to compete for each position."

"But now Chelsea, getting rid of the burden of several veterans and high-paid players, the team's financial pressure has indeed eased, but there is no appropriate reinforcement to strengthen the team's lineup and combat effectiveness, Chelsea is not going to talk about winning the championship, if they continue to play the next league in November, I'm afraid they can't even keep the top four in the league!"

"You know, today's Premier League is different from the past, Liverpool has a strong revival this season, Manchester City has also ushered in the harvest time after two seasons of accumulation and precipitation, Newcastle under the leadership of Ibrahimovic, but also showed the strength to impact European qualification, West Ham United under the integration of Ranieri, plus two seasons of strengthening, combat effectiveness should not be underestimated."

"In this case, when these upstarts rise strongly, the old powerhouses will either continue to soar like Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United, or they will become a stepping stone for the upstarts to progress."

Andy? Gray was clearly disappointed with Chelsea as well, and in what was supposed to be a good way to show what he could have done and use as an opportunity to rediscover his bearings, Chelsea fell deeper and deeper into the game, completely losing themselves.

It can be said that the 0:9 loss to Tottenham Hotspur made Arsenal completely lose the self-confidence of the strong team, as well as the confidence and fighting spirit of the top four in the league, so this 0:4 is the beginning of Chelsea's future of losing the league.
