Chapter 1930 Tactical Restraint
On the court, the stability of both sides gave the two commentators enough time to introduce the starting lineups of both sides.

For the Arsenal team, the professor in this game did not intend to hold back as he said. He directly put on the team's most offensive 433.

However, in terms of starting personnel, he still carried out a large-scale rotation.

"Chamberlain, Liu Feng and Walcott formed the team's three strikers. Haha, this is the striker combination that the Gunners used two seasons ago."

In terms of the arrangement of the three strikers, former Saints player Wilt Chamberlain and the Gunners youth training Tigers started at the same time again. Many fans still remember the scene of them flying on both sides of Liu Feng two seasons ago.

"In terms of the arrangement of the three midfielders, the combination of Cazorla and Ganso Gagranero started the game. The Gunners' substitute lineup makes people feel that their strength has not weakened at all. This champion team has now completely completed the change of the entire team."

If the Arsenal team really relied on the team's remnants in the first season of Van Persie's departure, then with the continuous purchase and replacement of these three seasons, everything has changed.

Nowadays, no one will say that Arsenal's bench is not strong enough. Some powerful players are willing to come here to seek the main position from the bench.

"In the back four, Gibbs and Carvajal are on the left and on the right. In the central defender combination is Vermaelen and Koscielny. As for the goalkeeper, it is still the Gunners goalkeeper Szczesny."

Liu Jianhong quickly finished introducing the starting lineup of the Gunners. It is true that none of the main players appeared on the field, but the central axis of Liu Feng-Ganso-Vermaelen has not changed at all. The threat of the Gunners in this game is still huge.

Afterwards, Zhan Jun also introduced Southampton's starting lineup for this game as quickly as possible after the Gunners' offense gradually pushed through the half.

"Pochettino's tactical play in this game is very pragmatic. He played 451 at the opponent's home court."

This formation was used by them to beat Liverpool and draw with Manchester United, and there is not much difference in the starting lineup.

"Lambert served as the team's single forward, and the left and right midfielders are the hot-footed winger Jay Rodriguez and the Saints captain Lallana."

It is not so much 451, but Southampton's formation position is more like 4141. Among the two players in the middle, the Saints' starters are black and hard Wanyama and the team's midfielder Schneiderlin.

Behind them is Walder Prosser, who was born in 94 and is now only 19 years old. This teenager has been playing very well since he was boldly used by Pochettino.

On the defensive line, Luke Shaw, who has attracted the attention of many Premier League giants, is at the left back position. The center back combination is José Fonte and Lovren, two solid defensive backbones. Klein is the right back, and Porus is the goalkeeper.

Many of the saints' entire starters are the shining star players of this season. After Pochettino trained for a season, these young people have shown many bright spots that have attracted attention since the start of the game.

At this moment, on the pitch, as Arsenal's offense slowly pressed up, their frantic pressing and coordinated defense quickly made people feel their hard work.

"The ball was intercepted~ It's really surprising that the Gunners didn't even go deep into the middle of the midfield in their first attacking attempt."

On the court, the ball at Arsenal's feet was soon cut off by the opponent. Facing the pressing of Jay Rodriguez and Wanyama, Granero, who was trying to push the ball forward, was not able to stabilize it.

However, because the Gunners' formation was reserved, their conceded goal did not give Southampton a good chance to launch a counterattack. After the ball was given to Schneiderlin's feet, the midfield commander did not initiate the team's offense.

The two sides began to press around the ball within the center circle.

On Arsenal's side, Ganso and Cazorla became the main force in direct contact and confrontation, while Granero, who is not very good at confrontation, is slightly worse.

On Southampton's side, the arrangement of the five midfielders is not just for watching. Except for Walder Prosser guarding the final gate to prevent the Gunners from stealing the ball and launching a counterattack directly, the other four ran at the fastest speed.

"Oh~, looking at it this way, Pochettino's style of play is quite similar to Klopp's. Today's young coaches seem to like to use their desperate energy to challenge strong enemies."

Zhan Jun quickly chatted with great interest. If he didn't say anything, he said it was true. The composition of Southampton and Dortmund is also very similar, mainly young people.

Perhaps the biggest difference between the two sides is that many players in the Dortmund team have grown into world-class players, while Southampton is still budding.

I have to say that this time Pochettino's decision is definitely very correct, because the professor's formation arrangement is not designed to deal with Dortmund-type teams.

In the 17th minute of the game, the Southampton team, which has gradually recovered the situation, has gradually taken the initiative. They began to hold the ball for a long time and kept pressing the lineup.

The Gunners' three midfielders were gradually unable to resist the pressure from their opponents, and the battle area between the two sides came to the heart of Arsenal's midfield.

"Schneiderlin once again received a pass from Wanyama. Wanyama performed his role very well in this game. This is not the first time he has broken the ball to his partner."

"Shh!"

The ball flew through the air, and when Schneiderlin had the ball and the Gunners' press was not in place, he quickly captured the fleeting opportunity.

"A scalpel-like through pass, the ball passed between Ganso and Granero, and Lallana quickly ran to get the ball! Southampton broke through the Gunners' midfield defense."

"Boom!!! Saints! Saints! Saints!"

For the first time, the entire Emirates Stadium was flooded by Southampton fans, and Lallana quickly rushed to the Gunners' backline amidst such shouts.

"Koscielny chose to attack. He didn't give Lallana a chance to take the ball from a long distance. The two met in the penalty area and split the ball again~"

At the next moment, Lallana, who went in diagonally to the middle of the penalty area, kicked the ball diagonally again.

"The through ball in the front left, Jay Rodriguez got the ball!"

"Shu~"

With a direct dunk from the ball, Carvajal was easily dunked when the opponent's speed was already full, and then the Southampton's top scorer so far this season chose to hit the goal directly.

"Cut inside and hit the goal, the ball goes to the upper right corner of the goal!"

The incomparably standard inside cut hits the goal, touches the ball and pushes the ball, and then hits the goal with the outside instep. The ball flies over the heads of the Gunners defenders at the most perfect angle, and also flies over Szczesny's fingertips.

"The ball has been scored!!!"
