Chapter 728 Shield Front System
Chapter 728 Shield Front System
Chapter 728 Shield Front System
The establishment of the shield front system is based on the point of Firmino.
Firmino is also the founder of Shield Front.
What is shield front?
In Liverpool's system, the offensive point is not the so-called center, but the two wings.
Firmino's centre-forward is more precisely the job of playing a 'false nine'.
Usually the 'false 9' needs to be responsible for the retreat organization, transfer and delivery of the ball, providing more firepower to the two teammates on the wing.
But in the work arranged by Klopp for Firmino, a more important work has been added.
That is for 'interception defense in the opponent's half'.
This is why Arsenal are in their current predicament.
In the first half of the season, this tactic has not been perfected, so Arsenal can win.
And now, they are facing a Liverpool team in its heyday.
The shield front system has just been developed and is beginning to show its power.
Hearing Lucy's explanation, Mourinho also widened his eyes.
The main reason is that this system is unheard of, and it is a bit super-class.
In the traditional sense, the center should be the terminator of the offense, a goal machine.
However, under the complex tactics of modern football, the center forward is also given the task of retreating, organizing and transferring, but like Firmino, he robs the frontcourt and grabs Arsenal a little bit. This is not Mu The information that Rinho can accept in a short time.
He recalls videos of Liverpool games in his mind.
Liverpool won in the same way against Manchester City, whose passing system was useless.
In other words, transmission and control cannot kill this system.
Chelsea were also taken away with three points against Liverpool.
Chelsea was also restrained in that game, and the counterattack was still ineffective.
And this game once again proved that counterattacks are ineffective.
This time, Mourinho was a little numb.
Can't transfer control?
Can't fight back?
So how to play?
Even if he is a world-renowned coach, even if he has excellent on-the-spot adaptability, Mourinho really can't think of any solution in a short time after facing the sudden information and the problem of Liverpool's lineup.
"Sir, you need to figure it out and we can go on for a while in the second half."
After a pause, Le Kai said solemnly; "If we can't think of a way, we can only lose this game!"
Mourinho's heart grew heavy.
This time it was really hit hard by Klopp.
Mourinho took a deep breath and said; "In the second half, first...maintain the original style of play, and make sure to counterattack appropriately in case of not conceding the ball."
"We'll figure it out! Yes! We'll figure it out!"
After Mourinho finished speaking, as if he was cheering himself up, he repeated one sentence again.
Lucy also began to rest, preparing for the second half of the game.
The intermission ended and the two sides returned to the field.
"After the first half, Liverpool led Arsenal 1-0, and judging from the feedback from the front, Arsenal did not make any changes, which shows that Mourinho is still very confident about this lineup!"
After Andy Gray finished speaking, Richard, the commentary partner beside him, laughed; "It may be that he didn't find the problem."
After all, he continued; "Actually, so far, I don't know why Liverpool can play so well. In fact, they are pressing the whole court, and sometimes they even feel a little chaotic, but they play with full momentum. Don't want to believe that a team wins on momentum, it's weird, but that's how Liverpool win every game!"
"Now facing Arsenal, they use this method to suppress Arsenal, so this is definitely not a so-called aura issue. Klopp has given this Liverpool team some magic that we can't see!"
As Richard said, many fans are also discussing what is the secret of Liverpool's strength.
However, they can't think of specific problems.
The camera shifts to the coaching bench. Mourinho, who is restless, is sitting on the coaching bench at this time. He puts the notes on his lap, holds a pen in his right hand, and grabs his hair with his left hand, as if he could not solve mathematics. Question yourself.
Seeing this scene, they also understood that there is a high probability that Mourinho really has no way to solve the problem.
On the other side, Klopp is full of joy.
He decided that no one could find out the problem with this tactic in the short term.
What's more, Arsenal have just come into contact with all this, even if Mourinho is an excellent head coach, he can't do it.
In this regard, Klopp is extremely sure.
Mourinho was scratching his head at this time.
Solution!
Solution!
So, what is the solution?
Transmission control will not work!
No counterattack!
So how to play?
Should he be asked to develop a brand new way of playing now?
This is unrealistic!
Mourinho's eyes were a little red, he wrote Firmino in his notes, and analyzed the opponent's various abilities beside him.
Excellent scheduling ability!
Excellent passing vision!
Plenty of energy!
This guy is completely the attribute of the front midfielder!
Why did he go to the center.
"Damn!"
Mourinho cursed bitterly.
At this time, the competition in the arena will also begin.
He saw Le Kai looking at him.
Mourinho quickly recovered his indifferent expression and nodded slightly.
After Le Kai turned his head to prepare for the game, he started scratching his head again.
"So, how to solve the problem!!"
At this time, the competition in the arena also started.
Liverpool took the lead in attacking in the second half, following the pattern of the first half.
And Arsenal also continued the way they played in the first half.
The two sides once again had a fierce midfield confrontation.
However, under Firmino's interception and pressure in the frontcourt, Arsenal's pass was very weak. This guy's running area is very wide and very active, which caused Arsenal to play a little timidly.
And after understanding Firmino's role, Arsenal was suppressed even more ruthlessly.
"Don't be affected by the opponent's rhythm! Hold your position!"
"Pass the ball! Pass the ball!"
"Don't pour the ball in the backcourt, when you don't want to, make a big clearance!"
Lucky kept reminding his teammates loudly, but the overall lineup was gradually suppressed.
And compared to the first half, it was even more uncomfortable to play!
"Damn!"
Le Kai cursed secretly.
If this goes on like this, something will go wrong.
However, they can only grit their teeth and wait for Mourinho to come up with a solution at this time.
"A way! A way! A way! So what's the damn way?"
Mourinho's expression was a bit grim at this time, and he really couldn't think of a way.
Moreover, the current Arsenal can't accept an overly complicated system, and can't play it at all.
He can only have the players under him and make simple lineup changes to achieve the goal of breaking the game.
But the question is how to break the game?
"Or... let's imitate them!"
Arteta on the side said suddenly.
This sentence made Mourinho stunned for a moment.
"Imitate them?"
Arteta said; "We are very good at pressing in high positions, and we also have a shield forward similar to Firmino, although I don't know if he can do as well as Firmino!"
Hearing this, Mourinho blinked and turned to look at the bench.
He saw Campbell, the Costa Rican player he had forgotten.
This so-called Arsenal's "running center" was a player who performed well in limited playing time last season.
Campbell's character has been completely changed.
Retreating, transferring and playing are his strengths, and he has a very good ability to cooperate with Aubameyang.
As for interception ability, it's not clear, because no one asked him to do it.
However, this guy is known as the "running center", with abundant physical fitness and the advantages of being good at running, which may become a key link in interception.
So, the key to cracking Liverpool's tactics is to play the same tactics as them?
Of course, there are many details in Liverpool's tactics, which Arsenal cannot imitate.
But in general imitation is enough, just need to apply the same pressure to the opponent's half?
"That's right!"
Mourinho slapped his thigh, immediately got up and turned his head and shouted; "Campbell, go warm up!!"
Happiness comes too suddenly.
Campbell didn't even realize it, and then was urged by the assistant coach to go out to warm up.
At this time, Mourinho stared at the game with bright eyes.
This may really be a key link in undermining Liverpool's tactics.
Let's play the same tactics and see who plays well.
See whose defense is better.
Let's see who has better luck!
Take a gamble!
