Strong Waist

Starting from the second day, Arsenal began to practice defensive counterattacks. Google search reading

The main defensive counterattack formations include 4-5-1, 4-4-2 and 5-3-2.

The overall performance is to first defend firmly and then wait for opportunities to counterattack the opponent.

This style of play can be said to be smart. First of all, it is a solid defense. There are many people in the midfield and small gaps, leaving little room for the opponent to perform.

And your own players can effectively defend the incoming ball within a short distance.

This can not only save the physical strength of the players, but also effectively attract the opponent's offensive players to go deeper.

However, when the opponent does not have a numerical advantage in the frontcourt, it cannot afford an effective offensive organization.

And once the number of offensive players in the frontcourt is increased for offense, the backcourt will inevitably be empty.

At this time, once the defensive team gets the ball, it will be passed to their own players wandering in the opponent's half in time, and the defensive formation at this time will immediately change to an offensive formation.

That is, from 4-5-1 and 5-3-2 to 3-5-2 or 3-4-3.

In an instant, you can achieve the numerical advantage in the opponent's half and give your opponent a fatal blow.

In this link, Lucky, the core point on both offense and defense, comes into play.

In fact, Lucai was a little bitter when he was entrusted with the important task.

Who would have thought that just after he became the main player, after many core players suffered injuries one after another, he would become the core daddy!

But being the core is not so easy. At least at this stage, Lucai is in a state of exploration.

Defensive counterattack may seem simple, but in reality there are many things involved.

In fact, the most critical thing about defensive counterattack is the control of timing.

How to choose the right time is a key issue.

Almost everyone believes that every counterattack opportunity needs to be grasped, but after doing so, the continuous and frequent sprints will consume the players' physical energy very quickly, leaving them unable to sustain 90 minutes or even the formation will collapse directly, and the basic defense will be destroyed. The network cannot be built.

Patrice once said that a real defensive counterattack should be like a spring. The harder it is compressed, the greater the tension.

This mainly depends on the ability of the frontcourt.

Whether they can play an effective, swift and deadly quick counterattack will be the most important problem for Arsenal.

In the training field, Lucai was defending while observing the changes in the situation.

He had a lot to think about.

Linkage on the defensive end, control of offensive timing, how to organize manpower for encirclement and suppression, etc.

At this moment, Lucai finally understood that the core was really not something done by humans.

How did Arteta persevere?

Just these trivial questions gave Lucai a headache.

Not to mention counterattack points.

Beep! ! ! !

The whistle blew, the training session was called off, and the players were given a break.

Lucky came to the sideline sweating profusely and walked on the ground, breathing heavily.

Patrice came over, handed the towel to Lucky, and taught him at the same time.

"You don't need to cooperate with your teammates to defend every time. Remember that you are part of the whole. No matter how positive your performance is, you cannot fill the vacancy caused by the whole. What you need to do is to do your own thing well. "

Lucky squeezed the water into his mouth, spit it out, wiped his mouth and said, "But there are some loopholes that they didn't see, so I had to seal them myself."

Patrice nodded: "So, you have to adapt the whole team to your playing style. Remember, you are the core."

Lucky grinned.

He felt great pressure again.

Recently, Wenger and Patrice have talked about the word "core", putting great pressure on Lucky.

Please!

He's only been in the starting lineup for a short period of time, and this has become central.

Even though he is the temporary core, there is no need to remind him again and again and put so much pressure on him.

Here Patrice and Lucky are talking alone, while other players have long been used to it.

It’s not just once or twice that Patrice gave Lucky a little trouble.

Everyone in the Arsenal first team knows how much the coaching staff dotes on Lucky!

Lucky is special!

Although the coaching staff did not say it out loud, their attitude was clearly expressed.

But the problem is, they don't have any jealousy.

If it were anyone else, they might really feel unhappy.

But Lucky is different.

After this guy received enough support, he scored 10 steals, 9 interceptions, and 5 key passes in a single training game.

This kind of crazy data makes the players on the bench feel exhausted.

They were almost choked by Lucky's defense.

In the whole game, four shots were taken, one of which hit the goal frame, and it was a long shot.

This is the data that the substitute team handed over after the main team switched to defensive counterattack.

Of course, there are also problems with the main team.

For example, there are still problems with their cooperation during defensive counterattacks.

But the defense is really solid!

Lucky and Ramsey, two defensive midfielders with abundant physical energy and super endurance, swept the entire field.

In particular, Lucky can steal the ball and intercept the ball at any position on the field, which is a bit scary.

When the substitute team passes the ball, they must pay attention to whether Lucky is nearby to prevent him from being intercepted or stolen.

After all, they were scared of being robbed!

At this time, they saw Lucky getting up and walking towards Walcott, and then called Podolski over.

The three of them sat together, and Lucai said: "Guys, our midfield encirclement and suppression force is not enough. I need you to sweep up the wings more frequently and support the midfielder in a timely manner to form an encirclement and suppression force."

Podolski said; "But after we retreated, there was no one left in the frontcourt!"

Lucky waved his hands; "Don't worry about the opponent's gaps. The first thing we have to do is defend. If we can't even defend, let alone score. Pay attention to the gaps behind us. As long as we block all the gaps, there will be opportunities." It will come eventually.”

After speaking, Lucky looked at Podolski: "Don't care too much about scoring goals. I don't want to see you playing like a lone ranger. Man, we are a team. If you keep playing like this, you will be beaten by the team." Abandoned."

Hearing this, Podolsky showed a hint of embarrassment. Then he nodded; "I will try my best to correct this problem."

"good!"

Lucky clapped his hands, stood up and said loudly, "Guys, it's time for physical training. The last three people who finished will become the targets of the butt-kicking game!"

Hearing this, everyone laughed and said, "I want to kick Chamberlain's ass!"

"Jenkinson, stick your ass up!"

"Why me!"

"Because you run slowly!"

The players stood up with smiles and began to form a team and run circles around the playground.

The butt-kicking game was Lucky's idea.

Mainly used as punishment for the last few people in physical training.

The last three people to finish have to lie down on the goal line and stick their butts out.

Others stand at the penalty spot and kick the ball, each with a kick aimed at the opponent's butt!

This kind of game can often arouse the revenge of the players who were kicked out, and they will work harder the next day.

The effects of physical training are also beginning to show.

Jog nine laps and sprint the last lap.

During this period, everyone was chatting and spanking, but when Lucky suddenly shouted the word "Run", everyone started running wildly.

A group of people ran wildly, and the team was stretched into a line.

Lucky and Ramsey were the first to arrive, and their physical reserves gave them a certain advantage.

Finally, Lucky stood in front of the finish line.

Looking at Chamberlain, Mertesacker and Diaby in front of him, he said: "Go! Lie down at the goal line!"

After saying that, Lucky turned around and shouted; "Guys, go get our 'bullets'!"

Everyone cheered, and immediately began to pick up a ball and go to the penalty spot, standing in a row.

Chamberlain was lying on the ground, sticking his butt out, and turned around with some dissatisfaction: "You jumped the gun, you are cheating! Ouch!"

Lucky kicked Chamberlain directly in the butt, laughing and scolding: "You can't even start, and I didn't say you have to shout 'Run' before you can sprint. If you have the ability, just sprint from the beginning!"

Everyone laughed.

Chamberlain pointed to his butt angrily and said, "You're done kicking!"

Lucky shrugged and left.

Immediately, a heated butt shooting contest started in the training ground.

The coaches gathered around and watched this scene with interest. Patrice smiled and said, "Arsenal hasn't had this kind of energy for a long time!"

Wenger smiled and nodded: "This is a brand new Arsenal, a young and full Arsenal!"
