Chapter 285: The most powerful gunman

British people enter the Christmas holiday, but the Premier League is in full swing, Highbury is full of seats, there is a festive carnival atmosphere, and the Gunners fans do not forget to satire Millwall at this time.
Millwall was shrouded in scandals, aftermath, and many gunman fans in the stands slogans mocking Millwall, such as depicting the crazy lion as a lewd club...
"Hey, Andy, the defending champion seems to be in big trouble, do you say yes?"
"Maybe, they lost to Manchester United and were widened by 6 points. At the same time, there was a scandal on the team. Hall has already punished the perpetrators. It looks ruthless. The three rising English stars are at least. It will not appear on the top field within a month. For them, this may be a good opportunity to reflect."
"I think Hall still has his reason to do so. One is to protect the players. At this time, let those players appear on the court, it will inevitably be ridiculed and accused by the public. The second is discipline, Lampard, Ferdinand. Mills, this is the main force of the England national youth team. If everything goes smoothly, they will also be the main force of the future national team. For such players, the head coach should be more rigorous. It depends on whether the three players can think Passed, I hope they will not have resentment against the head coach."
"According to the current information, there should be no. The three players followed the reserve team and had played a reserve league match with the Arsenal reserve team earlier. They performed well and helped the Millwall reserve team get After a big victory, I just don’t know if such a big victory will bring good luck to the Millwall first team."
"Since Arsenal suffered a defeat at the Lion's Cave Stadium early in the season, Wenger quickly adjusted his team and no longer aggressively overused young players. After a period of adaptation, Arsenal's record is good, although now with the leader Manchester United The gap of 10 points, but only 4 points away from Millwall, but also behind the Liverpool, Chelsea, Leeds United and other strong teams, so that Arsenal have the opportunity to compete for the runner-up, enter the Champions League next season. "
"Yes, especially when Millwall’s schedule will be extremely difficult in the next few months. The factor that is detrimental to Millwall is that the thickness of their lineup is worrying. To be honest, their summer signing is to target the future. , But they cannot guarantee the current results, and in the second half of the season, they will play a lot more games than Arsenal. In addition to the FA Cup, they will have two League Cup semi-finals next month. One more League Cup final, and before the Champions League knockout begins, Millwall will play two more European Super Cup matches with Dortmund. The further Millwall goes in the Champions League, then when the sprint at the end of the season, they The more difficult the situation is."
Aldridge and Wenger talked a few more words on the sidelines. Wenger did not expect Millwall to have such a problem at this time. Arsenal is at ease and in excellent condition. Today’s game will definitely be more against Arsenal. favorable.
Aldrich didn't talk about the party event deeply, and the two quickly returned to their respective positions, waiting for the game to begin.
Millwall's lineup is not complete. Originally he would let Schneider rest, but Mills went to the reserve team, Schneider had to drag his tired body hard.
Larsson and Nedved are expected to return to the team after this game. Aldridge doesn’t like to make the players’ schedules very tight. The two attended the Golden Globe Awards and were so close to Christmas at the same time. Just let them take a good rest during the second half of the season to recuperate and recuperate, so as not to rush back and forth and hurry to train but may not be able to play better, especially Larson’s 97-year attendance rate is very high, and the team went south and went to war It's time to arrange his rest time more liberally, as does Nedved.
The average state of Ballack replaced the last starting Lampard. After 21 years old Ballack, the technical ability has tended to be stereotyped. The rest is to accumulate game experience and physical fitness to strengthen and improve the ability to adjust the state, A few days ago, when he was in a trough, Aldridge gave him a rest. It was not the planned return time, and Barak’s condition had not recovered to his best, but today it can only be hardened.
"Today's Millwall is clearly not the strongest lineup.
Starting goalkeeper: Bout.
Guards: Schneider, Elgra, Southgate, Capdevila.
Midfielders: Makelele, Pirlo, Barack.
Forwards: Good Johnson, Trezeguet, Shevchenko.
Arsenal's side has only one change compared to the last lineup where the two teams met.
Goalkeeper: Seaman.
Defenders: Dixon, Adams, Keon, Winterburn.
Midfielders: Ovimas, Vieira, Petit, Pires.
Forwards: Wright, Bergkamp.
The referee whistled and Arsenal kicked off first. "
As the game started, Aldridge observed that the Arsenal players entered the game very quickly, the running position was clear, the pass and catch success rate was extremely high, and the attack and defense rhythm changed quickly...
Wenger has completely changed the former Arsenal, making it impossible to associate the Arsenal of the Graham era with this sought-after person.
A few months ago, the biggest problem of Arsenal was that the double backs did not cooperate well. The defense from the defense will have flaws against the top teams, the rhythm control is lacking, and the cooperation of the offensive players in the frontcourt has not reached a qualitative change. Level.
But a few months later, this Arsenal is invulnerable. The top line of defense includes not only an individual with super powers such as Ovimas, but also a Bogkan that attacks in series or solves the battle by itself. Pu, Vieira and Petit's cooperation is maturing, the purely 11-man starting lineup energy, just like any Premier League team.
It's no wonder that in the history of Manchester United, some contemporary stars later lamented that the 97/98 season of Arsenal is the strongest, not the 03/04 season!
Ovimas took the ball on the right and turned forward to take the ball to break through. Capdevila defended the position. Ovimas easily leaped away with a change of direction to accelerate Capdevila.
After the success of the bottom, Peter Pan passed the ball in time, and the timing was just right. This was very different from his performance outside the free gunner tactical system a few months ago.
Ian Wright outflanked the middle and grabbed a header to make a goal. Butt made a wonderful save and raised the ball above the crossbar.
Aldridge saw this scene on the sidelines and squeezed the bridge of his nose with a headache.
Capdevila was broken by Ovimas twice in a row, and he felt his defense was useless.
The Spaniard's injury came back earlier than planned, but Aldridge is expected to let him play in January, but no one expected the last game at Old Trafford, but Zambrotta He was injured again, which forced Capdevila to play ahead of schedule, and his condition was deeply worrying.
There are many foreign players on the Christmas Express. It is often during the winter break of other leagues that the performance of foreign players will decline. In the past three years, Millwall's record has fluctuated greatly around January.
Some old players gradually overcame this difficulty, but young players started to slump at Christmas.
Arsenal created pressure through two sides in a row. They never dragged their way from the defender to the offense. They hit the air like a storm, attacking the clouds and flowing water. Almost every counterattack can hit the Millwall gate, making the mad lion restricted.
After playing for thirty minutes in the first half, Capdevila was obviously out of shape, almost completely overwhelmed and played by Ovimas in various ways.
Jenson came up and suggested to replace Capdevila with Neal, fearing that the confidence of the Spaniard would be beaten in this game.
Aldridge rejected this proposal. Players need to recover from the injury after the injury. If this game replaces Capdevila, the confidence in him is a heavy blow to him.
He needs to keep up with the rhythm in the game and continuously improve his feeling.
After all, it was a bit of luck, and he came back to the first game after he recovered from injury.
Aldridge continued to shout and let Goode Johnson return to the left to reduce the pressure on Capdevila, but the Icelanders did not do well enough for the double defense on the same side, Aldridge had to let Shevchenko swapped with Goodjohnson to let Shevchenko defend the left wing.
This time, the threat of Ovimas plummeted, at least Shevchenko's wide-scale retreat can block the opponent's internal line, Capdevila can concentrate on guarding against the opponent's bottom.
But as a result, Millwall's attack was almost paralyzed.
Arsenal contracted deeper when defending. They learned the lesson of the last defeat. Six or seven defensive players alone are not enough to limit Millwall's overall progress. Even Bergkamp also returned to harass Peel in the second half. Lowe's organization, which directly led to Millwall's passing and receiving errors in the frontcourt.
The whole first half was very passive, and the fans in the stands also saw it. The most intuitive is that Arsenal can hit the Millwall goal and form a threatening attack, but Millwall is in There is no way to advance to the other party's restricted area.
Gunners fans saw this scene, before denounced Wenger's doubt that the voice is weakening, it is not unreasonable.
Being able to suppress Millwall at home, but lacking luck, is enough to show Wenger's skill, and he is well-tuned for the team. It also looks passionate and beautiful.
At the end of halftime, the score is still 0:0.
Aldridge walked back to the locker room expressionlessly and directly adjusted the team's tactics.
As they used to do, the offensive players in the frontcourt attacked the ball with a magnificent offensive cooperation, and they couldn't play today!
In addition to the fact that Arsenal have top defense and midfielders and the wide range of front-court players withdrawing harassment factors, Millwall's own problems are in the basket.
Good Johnson has good ability, but he still lacks tacit understanding with his teammates. The kind of dazzling offensive cooperation, lack of a suitable jigsaw puzzle in the frontcourt, the threat of offensive is greatly reduced, coupled with Barack’s play. Unsatisfactory, Capdevila was suppressed and unable to move forward to assist, Schneider's physical strength is a worry, and the difficulties Millwall encountered today is far from being as simple as it seems.
Aldridge can't let the team pursue any gorgeous cooperation anymore. One foot kicks the ball, teammates run position, pass the cut and cooperate, and tear the opponent's defense line. It seems very simple. In fact, the skill required is very high.
Millwall will play simple and rough in the second half, at least to threaten the opponent's goal, can not always spin in front of the penalty area and be counterattacked by the opponent!
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and played again. After Aldridge's adjustment, the team formation also changed, from 433 to 4231.
This adjustment soon received a strange effect!
