940 is back
Whether Chelsea fans admit it or not, Millwall's temperament and posture on the pitch are even more atmospheric and majestic!
Although, Millwall is not perfect right now, and there will be no truly flawless team.
The only difference is that the potential of Millwall's players has not yet been tapped to the limit, and when they really reach the peak, they can achieve the "perfection" they can achieve.
Chelsea, who have made a dream start, the front three, especially the wide players, are not aware of the overall changes on the field, they are still actively doing the work of pressing in the front, but when Millwall's attack hits their back, their defensive awareness drops.
This led Millwall to blow up their wide defence and score the equaliser.
With the scoreline levelised, Chelsea's wide defence began to strengthen, and Eriksen was not going to sit idly by now that he saw the problem.
At the same time, it allows the team to strengthen long passes on the counter-attack, especially to the wings.
After all, Millwall's two-sided defenders are extremely aggressive in attack, and the space behind them can definitely be used!
And in this link, Aldridge will certainly foresee that when deducing the effectiveness of tactics, will such defensive holes not be obvious?
Therefore, the inculcation of the defensive concept of the back and defender is the key.
Long passes are certainly not as successful as short passes.
The technical ability of the long-pass transmitter needs to be guaranteed, and secondly, the person who receives the receiver needs to be smart and able to capture the gap.
Even if both of these are up to the mark.
There is another condition that is difficult to change.
Ball in the air flight time!
Children understand that the longer the distance, the same speed of the ball. The longer it will be. To speed up the ball. The requirements for power control are higher, and the technical ability of the runner is also higher, and there are not many players who can perfectly stop the ball in the air.
As a result, the opponent's long pass, even if it is played on the wing, the time the ball flies in the air is the time for Millwall to set up the defensive line. If the opponent plays more and less, then shrink the danger zone of the penalty area, if the opponent is balanced in number or play more with less, then Millwall can divide the troops to defend, at this time, the defensive ability of the double back is reflected, a player assists in defending the side, and a player continues to guard the middle into a single back, not seeking to directly form an interception, but to delay the opponent's attack. Buying time for his team-mates is something they didn't dare to do in the past when Pirlo partnered with Gattuso. Because Pirlo is on the wing, his speed and defensive ability are difficult to make a measurable effect, and if Gattuso helps the wing, it is likely to expose the back line to the opponent's frontal impact.
In most cases, Millwall must defend more and less, because almost no opponent dares to defend Millwall with a balanced number of people, and Millwall's offensive pressure is to replace defense with offense!
If the opponent does not play long passes instead of short passes, then Millwall's handy defensive strategy of pressing with high pressure can continue to be used.
Michels's all-out offense and defense, Aldridge can't pursue, but the opponent's requirements must be firmly implemented: full participation in defense, contribute to defense, this is attitude and discipline!
Trident is no exception!
Compared with Millwall's two full-backs, who play both offensively and defensively, and seem to be everywhere, Chelsea's two full-backs, Johnson and Bridge, are overshadowed, not only attacking without success, but also frequently being exploded in defence.
Eriksen just asked the wide players to step up and then sat in the dugout, thinking about what to do, and for a moment, he felt all the pressure he had left behind.
The fast-paced pace of the Premier League and the habit of pressing close to the body make Veron unable to play, which is not determined by whether the player changes teams, but by the style of the entire league, because each opponent is a similar set.
In addition, Millwall itself strengthened the midfield, Nedved, Alonso, De Rossi, the three of them wrapped Veron dumplings, and Veron himself did not have the ability to dribble in a dragon rush, which made his sense of storage in the midfield lower and lower, and fell into a similar predicament in Manchester United against Millwall, and even, worse than before, because when he was at Manchester United, Millwall's Nedved was more involved in attacking, and there must be a significant distance from the midfield for the first time to return to defense, Pirlo's defensive prowess will not put pressure on Veron to be like Alonso's close-knit entanglement.
Duff and Gudjohnsen defended, Crespo was alone in the front, caught in the middle of the Millwall defender and the midfield, and occasionally an overhead ball flew over, Crespo was clever against offside to form a single knife, but saw Bout rush out to control the ball, which made him feel desperate.
Trying to break through Millwall's defence in a simple and brutal way would have been a bit whimsical for Chelsea.
Eriksen got up for the second time in the 22nd minute and reversed his previous order: no long passes, short passes, and the attack was launched from the middle and back, especially taking advantage of Duff's ability to attack on the wing.
The idea was not unexpected, and even their players didn't think it was new, as many of their opponents played that way.
But the speed of the player's dribbling will still not be as fast as the sprint speed without the ball, Millwall will have someone in the front court to delay Duff for the first time, and other defenders will run to the backfield, like a competition, the scene is very exciting, but even if Duff rushes through the obstacle to the front, you will find that their counterattack has become a positional battle, and because Veron is restricted, Chelsea has become powerless when playing positional battles.
Eriksen's face was sinking and he could see the reason for Chelsea's lack of attack.
It seems that Chelsea has never shown a particularly strong teamwork, and some points may seem a little threatening when controlling the ball, but there is no familiar group cooperation, and the whole team is not active, Millwall's high-pressure pressing to block the short-distance passing line of the ball carrier is one thing, and the lack of tacit understanding in the run-in of the whole Chelsea team is the second.
In the middle, he was counting on Makelele to be the backbone of Chelsea, just like Makelele's ability at Millwall: reinventing the game!
To Eriksen's surprise, Millwall changed their attacking routine, moving away from attacking in the middle and playing wide.
It's not hard to predict, could Aldrich ignore Makellele?
Hitting the opponent's strongest defensive point is not called courage, it is called stupidity, because it is right in the middle!
Bridges and Johnson, two full-backs, such a good target, don't abuse them, looking for Makelele? Is Millwall crazy?
As for moving to positional battles and then handing the ball to him, he can make formulaic passes, but he can never reach the level of a positional playmaker.
When Chelsea's wingers retreat into half-pitch, Millwall's two full-backs don't risk just rushing away, taking care to keep a reasonable distance from the opposing wingers, continuing to support the attack, and defending the first time if the opposition launches a counter-attack.
In the 29th minute, Larsson tried a shot from inside the box but was blocked by Terry, and Makelele, who won the ball, turned and passed the ball to Duff on the wing.
Duff took the ball along the wing to start, but before he could get up to speed, he was directly cut off by Schneider, and Chelsea's forward counterattack died before it broke out, Schneider looked up to observe the front court shape after breaking the ball, and passed the ball straight to Larsson.
Larsson was also back to defend and defend, this time he stopped and was unmarked, he distanced himself from Bridge, and took two steps laterally and went straight behind Deseli, Henry ran into the air before Terry was in position, Larsson's pass came as scheduled, and before Terry flew to block again, Henry kicked the ball and pushed the ball into the corner of the goal, the ball was not fast, and Cudicini tried his best to save it.
'Thierry Henry helped Millwall turn the score! Larsson's second assist! From the first round of the new season, Henry will once again challenge the Premier League Golden Boot, the European Golden Boot, Van Nistelrooy, who won the Golden Boot with 25 goals last season, he must work hard, I believe that Henry, who has returned to the center forward position this season, will not let his competitors take away the top scorer award with 25 goals, as long as he is not affected by injuries, Henry's Premier League goals in a season are absolutely no problem! He's Millwall's goal-scoring machine! â
Thierry Henry's goal silenced the home fans at Stamford Bridge.
Aldridge on the sidelines closed his eyes slightly and smiled with enjoyment, while his right hand was gesturing in front of him, and his index finger kept turning, as if he was drawing circles, as if he was enjoying a wonderful artistic feast.
In the stands, Abu's face began to turn a little ugly.
The Millwall generals made a collective classic celebration in front of the away team's stands, they stood in a row with one hand to their ears and turned slightly sideways, and the visiting Lions fans burst into unison shouts in the stands: "Lions!" â
The Millwall generals were still unsatisfied, three times in a row.
"Wild Lion"
"Wild Lion"
"Wild Lion!"
The echo of the wild lion reverberates through the air at Stamford Bridge.
"He's back! They're back! He's back! They're back! â
Martin Taylor shouted this sentence in a passionate and constant commentary.
Aldridge, who returned to Millwall at the end of last season, was actually a stranger to the Premier League and to those who followed him, as if Millwall had no motivation and were gnawing at their old roots, trying to use their past experience to continue their success.
However, now that Aldridge and Millwall have been unveiled in the new season with a state of passion and enjoyment, the kind of wild lions and young coaches that Martin Taylor and Andy Gray are familiar with are back!
They are enjoying the beauty of Zhongchuang zĂ o! They strive to make history with passion!
Standing out from the crowd of living beings, yearning for the immortal will of immortal mythology, the third generation of wild lions, like sharp arrows piercing the clouds, soared into the sky without hiding their edges (to be continued......
