112 Battle at Highbury

"A real dark horse? A fake dark horse?"

"Battle of Tianwang Mountain!"

"Can West Ham pass Arsenal?"

"Can West Ham start their journey to the Premier League title?"

Only the No. 14 round of the Premier League.

However, the media has begun to discuss the issue of the Premier League championship, because this game is indeed very likely to determine the trend of the Premier League championship this season.One is the defending champion and the other is a newly promoted team, but they have attracted the attention of the entire English football world.Although they are newly promoted, West Ham is currently No. 13 in the Premier League, and the defending champion Arsenal is currently No. [-] in the Premier League.In the No.[-] round of the Premier League, Arsenal played Tottenham away.

The north London derby was intense.

The two sides really played offensive football. Arsenal finally defeated Tottenham [-]-[-].It was Arsenal's first win in four games.Although scored five goals, everyone knows that Arsenal's state is really very problematic.

Just look at the conceded goals.

Since the loss to Manchester United, Arsenal have conceded 9 goals.Although 5 goals were scored, as a team aspiring to win the championship, it is completely unforgivable to lose [-] goals in a game.A strong team, especially a strong team that is going to win the championship, really shouldn't have conceded four goals when no players were sent off.But Arsenal just conceded four goals. It can be said that the entire Arsenal's defensive system has problems.

And Arsenal's main players have begun to show fatigue. The 49 unbeaten games made Arsenal's main players too tense, and the Arsenal players reached the point of collapse.They are struggling to reach 49 games, but they are already at the end of their strength.After being defeated by Manchester United, the breath was relieved, and the whole team was in a state of extreme fatigue.The result is what it is now, with a rapid decline in grades.

At the end of the [-]th round, West Ham ranked first in the Premier League, six points ahead of Arsenal and nine points ahead of Chelsea.

Plus Chen Ping is very high-profile.

Chen Ping shouted to win the Premier League championship, which means that West Ham officially joined the ranks of the Premier League championship.The current match between West Ham and Arsenal is directly related to West Ham's next results.If West Ham does beat Arsenal, West Ham will be nine points ahead of Arsenal.At that time, West Ham will really have enough strength to chase the championship.

This game can be said to be the biggest test for West Ham.

Therefore, before the game, the media was clamoring.In the end, Arsenal defeated West Ham, restored the strength at the beginning of the season, and got out of the downturn in the last few games.It is still West Ham's victory over Arsenal and truly participate in the competition for the Premier League title this season.

"started out the season - nothing stopped,

Come on Arsenal - ah you are the favorites to win the title. "

November 2004, 11, Highbury Stadium.

Arsenal fans have been singing their team anthem, supporting Arsenal.This period of time was Arsenal's downturn. After Manchester United broke Arsenal's 49 unbeaten games, Arsenal's state was very poor.Consecutive draws by weak teams, but fortunately they defeated Tottenham with difficulty in the last game.

Therefore, Arsenal fans hope that Arsenal's state can recover and defeat West Ham, the biggest dark horse of the season.

"West Ham! West Ham! West Ham!"

While the Arsenal fans were singing the team anthem, all of a sudden, in the stands where the visiting fans were, the West Ham fans started chanting "West Ham" in unison.Not only was the sound loud, but the West Ham fans stomped their feet in unison and then clapped in unison.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"West Ham! West Ham! West Ham!"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The momentum of the West Ham fans overwhelmed the Arsenal fans in an instant.The Premier League fans are very enthusiastic, and the atmosphere in the Premier League stadium is very good.But as the management became more and more strict, coupled with some other reasons, the atmosphere of the Premier League stadium was getting worse and worse. It was far less crazy than the 80s, nor as crazy as the 90s.

That's what Arsenal fans are.

When Arsenal moved into the Emirates Stadium in history, it was even known as the "Louvre".Because in the eyes of many people, coming to the Emirates Stadium to watch the game is like going to watch the Louvre, and everyone has no voice at all.

In fact, when Arsenal were at Highbury, the football atmosphere has been declining.But West Ham is different. West Ham's Upton Park Stadium is known as the number one stadium in London.Not that Upton Park is so good, but the atmosphere of the stadium is the best in London.More than Arsenal's Highbury, Chelsea's Stamford Bridge, Tottenham's White Hart Lane.Many people even think that the stadium with the best atmosphere in England is Upton Park.

Because West Ham fans are the craziest.

Only with these crazy fans can there be so many notorious football hooligan groups.For Premier League games, there must be a stand for the fans of the away team who follow the away team.The number of fans following West Ham's game reached 6000, which is definitely a lot.

And they are definitely well trained.

"The game hasn't started yet, but Arsenal fans and West Ham fans have already started competing. From the perspective of momentum, although the number of West Ham fans is far smaller than that of Arsenal fans, the scene is not at all inferior."

Andy Gray and Martin Taylor commented on the game.

Because they were at the scene, they could clearly feel the rivalry between Arsenal fans and West Ham fans.Especially for West Ham fans, rhythmic stomping is actually very rare in the Premier League.Most fans sit and watch most of a game.

But West Ham fans are different.

This is a group of wild people, and they are also "barbarians" who are cast aside by many fans.Although there are fewer and fewer notorious football hooligans in the past, the wildness left by the football hooligans of the past has always remained in the blood of West Ham fans.Therefore, before the game started, they relied on their shouts, and their unified behavior of stomping and clapping their hands,

Against [-] Arsenal fans.And it didn't lose the wind in the slightest, on the contrary, it faintly had the momentum to overwhelm the Arsenal fans.

At this time, Chen Ping was in the locker room.

Unlike before, Chen Ping kept a low profile before this match.Unlike the previous high-profile statement, West Ham wants the championship, and West Ham wants to beat their opponents.Because Chen Ping also needs to adjust his state.

Now that we have come to the stadium and the game is about to start, Chen Ping starts the final deployment.

"Leo (Leo Kok), Pascal (Zimbonda), you see Reyes. This is a genius, a very talented player. But this genius from the Iberian Peninsula, Growing up in a technical league, I have never experienced cruel physical confrontation, nor the brutality of English football. If we let him break through and pass the ball at will, then our defense will be jittery and we will not be able to defend at all Arsenal's offense. Therefore, my request to you is very simple. As long as he takes the ball and hits him with his body, he must be decisive. Of course, you must avoid behind-the-back tackles, but in frontal defense, you can tackle frontally and be bold. tackle."

"Yes."

Both Leo Kirk and Chimbonda nodded.

For this game, Chen Ping removed Defoe and let Leo Kok, who participated in the League Cup match three days ago, play.Let Leo Kirk play the position of right midfielder, which is a position that Leo Kirk is very familiar with.When he was in the British Championship last season, Chen Ping had always let Leo Cork play as a dummy right midfielder.

The purpose of letting him play is simple.

Chen Ping will abolish Arsenal's most famous left corridor in this game, preventing Arsenal's left corridor from taking off.The current Arsenal left corridor is composed of Ashley Cole, Reyes and Henry.Among them, Reyes is a very important link, connecting Ashley Cole and Henry, and Bergkamp in the middle.Reyes is a real top talent, and has already replaced Pires as Arsenal's main left midfielder.

For a genius like Reyes, Chen Ping didn't have a good solution.Because Reyes' personal strength is too strong, speed, breakthrough, passing and even shooting are all the best in this age group.If Chimbonda follows the normal method, it will be more difficult to defend Reyes.If Reyes is active, then Arsenal's entire offense will be active.

So Chen Ping had to restrict Reyes.

The method is very simple.Because Manchester United has given a demonstration to the Premier League team, that is, Reyes, a young talent, has not experienced the tough style of the Premier League.At Manchester United, the Neville brothers, Bart, and Scholes took turns to implement flying tackles on Reyes. As a result, Reyes was frightened and didn't know what to do.The final result was that Reyes was timid and did not dare to break through with the ball.Therefore, Wenger could only replace Reyes at 70 minutes.

This is honestly immoral.

Because of Manchester United's tactics, Reyes, a talented player, was directly abolished.Not only did they depose Reyes, they also laughed at Reyes as a coward.Chen Ping sympathized with Reyes very much, because according to Reyes' talent, he should have become the top left winger in the Premier League and even European football.

But sympathy is sympathy.

West Ham is going to play against Arsenal, of course Chen Ping wants to learn from Ferguson.Because Reyes is very important in Arsenal's frontcourt.Once Reyes makes a wanton breakthrough, the entire West Ham can't stand it.

Since Manchester United used such a "despicable" tactic, Chen Ping is not a saint, of course he had to use it.However, unlike Manchester United, Manchester United players can make behind-the-back tackles at will, but West Ham cannot.

Manchester United's connections and status in British football are no match for West Ham.For the same action, if Manchester United is fine, West Ham may get a yellow card.Manchester United players are yellow cards, West Ham players are red cards.This is the reality of the Premier League.

For example, the actions of the Neville brothers in that game, if they were stricter, they would have been punished long ago.But nothing happened to the Neville brothers.West Ham can't compare to Manchester United, so Chen Ping dare not let his players tackle from behind.

So Chen Ping's deployment is very simple.

Tackles from behind are not allowed, but when facing the front, they can be more aggressive.

What Chen Ping meant, Leo Kirk and Chimbonda fully understood.Because during the previous training, Chen Ping had already told them how to defend Reyes.Just to emphasize it again before the game starts.

"Michael (Carrick), Javier (Javier Mascherano), if Reyes wants to cut inside and enter the middle, it is the same way. Don't worry about giving Arsenal a free kick for a foul, you can make a bold physical collision, be bold. underfoot."

"Yes."

"Abolishing Arsenal's left side, then more than half of Arsenal's offense will collapse. Arsenal's biggest loophole in this game is the defensive arrangement."

There are many reasons for the rapid decline in Arsenal's performance after the end of 49 unbeaten games.

There are factors that they need to adjust their status, and it is also related to the fact that they have been hit hard.The main reason is that Campbell's injuries began to increase. He injured his calf in the game against Manchester United and will be absent for a month.After the absence of Campbell, Xi Gan, who replaced Campbell, has a big gap with Campbell in strength.

The hit is not just this.

Vieira has some injuries, but because of the bad condition of Arsenal during this period, he has not been able to rest.But Vieira, who is physically injured, has not performed very well in these games.

Arsenal is definitely at its weakest right now.

"Ricky, stand against Seagan for me during the game and put Arsenal's defense down for me."

"Yes."

Lambert nodded.

This is the most familiar style of play for center forwards.

"Andre (Arshavin), you play from the top of the arc. If Vieira or Edu withdraw, then keep them in this position. If they don't come back in time, the defense will be blocked by Rui. Chi (Lambert) press, in this position you can have a bold shot and a bold breakthrough. Frank (Franck Ribery), if Lauren doesn't follow the central defender back, break him from the wing. Yes Cross, you can also break into the penalty area, this is your choice. If Lauren chooses to retreat with the defense, then this area is your area. You can quickly choose to cut inside and shoot."

"Yes."

Without Campbell, Arsenal's defense will inevitably be more cautious and dare not take risks.But no matter what, there will be opportunities between the defense and the midfielder.Especially for top players like Franck Ribery and Arshavin.

"The two of you can change positions at any time during the game to confuse Arsenal's defense. Boldly shoot when you have the opportunity."

"Yes."

"When Arsenal is the weakest now, it is the opportunity God gave us. If we can't seize this opportunity, then God will not forgive us. My request is very simple. This game must defeat Arsenal and draw the big draw. Arsenal's score gap. As long as we win Arsenal, then this season's Premier League title will be ours. Me, and you, we will create a legend together, a legend that will be sung for decades and hundreds of years. "
