Chapter 1140 Valverde's troubles

Chapter 1140 Valverde's troubles

"Two goals behind, Barcelona's situation has become even more difficult!"

"The problem now is how to tear apart Arsenal's midfield line, don't think about how to penetrate the ball into the penalty area, step by step!"

The tone of the Spanish commentator became visibly anxious.

You can also feel the sense of urgency.

At this time, Barcelona was too passive.

Even among the bars in the entire Barcelona area, the fans watching the game were quiet.

There was a hint of bewilderment and pain in their expressions.

They are not afraid of falling behind, nor are they afraid of difficulties.

But they are afraid of this completely hopeless game.

In fact, at this point in the game, they already felt the suffocation.

Arsenal didn't give them any chance at all.

It seems that Barcelona's attack will also be perfectly digested by Arsenal.

At this time, all they could do was sigh over and over again.

"It's time for Valverde to make some adjustments!"

The Spanish commentator turned the spearhead, and the pressure was given to the coach again.

But at this time Valverde is also at a loss, he doesn't know how to limit Arsenal's tactical system.

Since last season, how many teams have lost to Arsenal's system.

Until now, no one has been able to complete the limit.

Ancelotti, Guardiola, Klopp and more

The problems that these famous coaches have not been able to solve are even more difficult when they fall on Valverde.

In fact, even if Valverde has sufficient tactical reserves and restraint methods, he may not be able to adjust due to lineup problems.

Yes!

Valverde believes that the current Barcelona lineup is not three-dimensional enough.

At the very least, their strong position is not young, which is a key issue.

Give him Lucky and Kanter, and he can kill the whole of Europe.

But the problem is, this kind of player is rare!

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Messi panted violently, and even when Arsenal was celebrating, Messi crouched on the ground to rest.

Sweat dripped down his forehead, soaking his entire shirt.

Before the first half was over, Messi felt extremely tired.

The 32-year-old Messi has already begun to decline in his physical fitness, not to mention that in such a difficult game, he has to shoulder a lot of breakthroughs and organizational work.

It can be said that Messi's playing is not easy at all, and there is even a tendency to carry Barcelona forward, but he can't carry it.

If Messi is five or six years younger, he thinks he still has the energy and the ability to make such a heroic move.

But it is really difficult for Messi to persevere now.

Messi touched his ankle, which was aching.

He was playing with injuries, but due to the pressure from the outside world and the media, he didn't dare to rest too much.

Once he rests, the team and the coaching staff should fall into criticism again.

And in such an important game, Messi can't rest.

But in this way, the final result may be more injuries, and the game has not yet been won.

At this moment, for the first time, Messi had the idea of ​​why he should be assigned to Group B and meet Arsenal in the group stage.

At this time, the camera just happened to Messi.

In the camera, Messi looks quite embarrassed, and his face is also in confusion.

And when the camera turned again and Lucy appeared, Lucy in the camera was in high spirits.

At this moment, the two sides formed a sharp contrast.

At this time, not only some people sighed, this is young capital.

While encouraging his teammates, Le Kai retreated together.

"The first half is almost over, stick to it for the next few minutes!"

Under Lucky's call, the Arsenal players responded in unison.

At this time, they had a two-goal advantage, and their morale was unilaterally crushed, and they even felt that they had endless strength.

Under this momentum, Barcelona's situation has become more difficult.

In the next few minutes, Barcelona also gave up their attack.

They need to adjust and plan to save some energy for this.

Of course, the most important thing is that they really can't run anymore.

Barcelona, ​​which is generally older, felt the limitations of age for the first time when facing a group of wolf-like Arsenal.

Soon, the first half was over.

The Arsenal fans at the scene also greeted their heroes with cheers and applause.

Although it was only the first half, with a two-goal lead, they also believed in their hearts that they would win the game.

Of course, Barcelona also has the possibility of a sudden explosion, but this probability is too low.

In Barcelona's dressing room, there was a lot of noise.

The poor performance in the first half made everyone feel extremely depressed, and they were constantly venting and complaining about it.

The whole atmosphere is also extremely bad.

In this case, Valverde did not stop, but stood aside and kept looking at the players.

Valverde's expression is also extremely complicated.

His eyes are constantly moving back and forth between Messi and Dembele.

At this time, Valverde wanted to replace Messi and let the teenager Dembele play.

Throughout the first half, Messi failed to pose a threat to Arsenal's defense, and he even couldn't run.

The most critical thing is that their lineup cannot maximize Messi's passing.

The ball holding point in the midfield cannot bring positive benefits to Messi.

Valverde recognizes Messi's ability, but the problem is that Barcelona cannot maximize his ability.

The current Barcelona lacks a person who can charge forward.

And that person could be Dembele.

Who can replace Dembele becomes a problem.

Coutinho?

Coutinho's performance in the first half was still good, and the few breakthroughs and threats were also initiated from his wing.

Therefore, it cannot be exchanged!

Suarez?

As the only center forward, Suarez restrains Arsenal's defense and cannot be changed.

In the end, only Messi was left.

But it also comes back to the hardest question

Valverde dare not!

Dembele's eyes were fixed on Valverde, and the emotion and anticipation in his eyes were ready to come out.

But Valverde could only pretend not to see it.

He clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and planned to argue:

"In the second half, our lineup remains the same!"

As soon as the voice fell, many players began to frown.

Their expressions became unsightly.

How did you play in the first half without substitutions?

But when it came to the question of who to replace, they fell silent again.

No one wants to be replaced.

For this reason, not changing people may also be a good choice.

Valverde began to describe the tactics of the second half, but the players were obviously absent-minded.

I don't know what they are thinking, but their emotions are obviously not in place.

Suarez sighed secretly watching this scene.

For this kind of problem, he has no way.

At this time, Barcelona is in this predicament.

On the other side, in Arsenal's dressing room, Mourinho did not describe any tactics.

He let the players rest as much as possible, while adding some details.

Throughout the first half, Mourinho was very satisfied.

This game completely hit Mourinho's heart.

There was no problem in defense at all, and two goals were scored in the counterattack.

Arsenal executed his tactics perfectly and took a huge advantage.

In this case, Mourinho will not take the initiative to change.

Of course, he also asked Saka and Odegaard to warm up at the same time.

If the situation permits, he doesn't mind letting these young players further experience this kind of strong dialogue game.

At this time, the morale of the Arsenal players was high.

There was an indelible smile on everyone's face.

After this game, Arsenal will be able to qualify for the knockout round in advance, and there is a high probability that they will qualify first in the group.

In the field, the commentators are also analyzing the situation in the field.

Of course, what they talked about most was Barcelona. At this time, everyone was making suggestions for them, even the Sky Sports commentary.

"Barcelona is in a bad situation at the moment and they have to come out and change."

"The most important thing is the midfielder." Dixon said with a smile: "But unless Xavi and Iniesta return, and they have to be at their peak, otherwise Barcelona really have no chance!"

"This is the crux of the problem. The midfielder is passive. This situation will radiate to other positions, resulting in the overall lagging behind!"

"And Arsenal are just very good at this style of play, radiating their advantages from midfield to other positions, and controlling the rhythm of the game."

Paul Merson exhaled and said, "Of course, we can still expect Barcelona to surprise us in the second half."
