Tyrant of green giants, signed Guardiola at the beginning

At Elland Road, the battle is about to begin.

Leeds United fans are in high spirits.

They took a supportive attitude towards Shen Hao's explosive remarks before the game!

Arsenal should accept their change of status as they are no longer in the title race.

There is no point in holding on to a hard top.

It will only appear that you are strong on the outside but capable on the inside.

Shen Hao, who had been silent and nonchalant, just removed their fig leaf in public.

Those who sympathize and pity Arsenal will naturally dislike Shen Hao's coldness and cruelty.

Not at all humane.

We didn’t see the sacrifices Arsenal made for their century-old legacy.

But things will happen in the next 20 years, 50 years, or 100 years.

Who can tell?

Whether it is right or wrong, who can draw a conclusion today?

At least for now, it is obvious to all that Arsenal's competitiveness is declining.

This is not a debate.

If Arsenal wants to retaliate, it can only be on the pitch.

Otherwise, any words are useless.

Arsenal fans have been collectively abusing Shen Hao since entering the stadium.

"Shen, bastard!"

"Shen, bastard!"

Although their uniform slogans created momentum, it was not enough to make Shen Hao frown.

Even though it was a curse, it wasn't necessarily a big insult and it was considered very polite.

"Hello everyone, it's night in China time and afternoon in England. Xiaopang and Glasses will continue to bring you Leeds United's Premier League game. White shirts will take on the Gunners Arsenal at home!"

"Brother Hao's words yesterday sparked heated discussions in the media. Even many of our Chinese football programs are discussing the negative impact that Arsenal's new stadium will have on the team's combat effectiveness.

On the positive side, Arsenal's move into a new stadium has brought about an increase in match-day revenue. At the same time, the Emirates Stadium can also host more large-scale commercial events. To put it bluntly, the new stadium has a higher revenue-generating capacity.

But there is also a negative side. Although Arsenal has won the Premier League championship with an undefeated record in the past few years, if they can strengthen their lineup, their overall results may be even higher, such as grabbing more players from Manchester United. Champions will have greater achievements in the European arena.

We all know that the income brought by the Champions League is extremely huge, just like from the top 16 to the top 8, the income gap is at least 350 million pounds. Therefore, in the past many years, if Arsenal's overall strength was stronger, the Champions League results would be better. Well, obviously the income will be more. They failed to win the championship last season, and the gap with Barcelona's income from the Champions League is almost 800 million pounds.

Arsenal failed to enter the top four of the Premier League last season and lost their qualification for the Champions League this season. Their income will be reduced by at least 1500 million pounds!

This account is very complicated, but it is clear at a glance in terms of the team's combat effectiveness. "

"Yes, there is no doubt that Arsenal would be in a stronger position if they had not been saddled with a huge debt of £10 million over 4 years.

But now they appear to be getting weaker. "

"Wenger is respectable. I read Brother Hao's remarks carefully from beginning to end. They did not involve an attack on Arsenal. He just stated the reality.

Similar words have been said by many media over the past few years, especially when Arsenal failed, the media will always regret, or question whether they weighed the pros and cons correctly in the important decision of building a stadium.

Today's Arsenal, whether in terms of appearance or record, if anyone thinks that Arsenal can compete with Chelsea, Manchester United, and Leeds United for the Premier League championship, they are not awake yet. "

"The situation is even worse this season. In the past few years, changes that have had a huge impact on Arsenal's combat effectiveness include the transfer and departure of captain Vieira, and the retirement of Adams, Keown, Seaman and others.

But this summer, things took a turn for the worse.

Ashley Cole went to Chelsea, Pires joined Villarreal on a free transfer, and Bergkamp retired.

It can be said that the skeleton of Arsenal's lineup for an era is completely broken up.

It rained all night, and Henry was plagued by injuries this season. Can Arsenal, without the Gunners champion, surpass Liverpool and Tottenham on the way to the fourth place? "

"This is the reality. If Arsenal fans can't recognize the reality, how do they feel about the standings?

With 7 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses, the league is not even halfway through yet, and the points behind the top three teams are already double digits.

Brother Hao said that Arsenal's goal is to compete for fourth place, so it should be fine.

Even if Leeds United cannot successfully defend the title, it will not be Arsenal's turn to counterattack.

Manchester United and Chelsea will definitely not pull their hips together. "

"Haha, let's take a look at the starting lineups of the two teams today.

For Leeds United, Franck Ribery has returned from injury, which is the biggest benefit in recent times.

Goalkeeper: Toldo.

Defenders: Kelly, Kompany, Stam, Candela.

Midfielder: Davies, Jamie Redknapp, Roy Keane.

Forwards: Rivaldo, Ronaldo, Ribery.

Arsenal starting 442.

Goalkeeper: Lehmann.

Defenders: Eboue, Kolo Toure, Djurou, Clichy.

Midfielder: Theo Walcott, Gilberto Silva, Flamini, Ljungberg.

Forwards: Baptista, Adebayor.

Fabregas was put on the bench by Wenger today, which may be related to his recent sluggish state. "

The two teams square off on the court.

Murder pervades.

Arsenal also showed rare blood.

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

The game officially kicked off.

Wenger crossed his arms across his chest, his face was serious, and his eyes contained a fierce light.

The professor was angry.

Being looked down upon by Leeds United can be said to be a lack of grace by Shen Hao, or it can also be said that this is a blatant war.

Shen Hao stood aside with an indifferent expression.

Whether Arsenal accepts it or not, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that as long as Arsenal don't park a bus at Elland Road.

The situation was much better than he expected.

There is indeed no bus.

They even actively launched an offensive.

It was as if he wanted to smash Leeds United's goal in one go.

Counter his comments with strength on the field.

Doesn’t Shen Hao despise Arsenal?

If Arsenal beat Leeds United, it would break Leeds United's unbeaten streak.

Then wouldn’t Leeds United become a laughing stock?

Arsenal are working hard and positive.

This made the collision between the two teams on the court more intense.

The Premier League.

High-intensity confrontations are commonplace.

Arsenal's offensive method, lacking the organization and creation of Cesc Fabregas in the middle, relies more on the wing advancement of Ljungberg and Theo Walcott.

However, this style of play does not have much clever coordination and can catch Leeds United's defense off guard.

Point-to-point defensive interception, Kelly and Candela plus two midfielders help defend at any time.

Leeds United's defense did not withstand much test before Arsenal's offensive was like a stone sinking and ended without any problem.

Leeds United's offense has similar characteristics to Arsenal.

They all play on the wing.

But their frequency of combining mid-to-mid offense and their methods of cooperating with derived threats are much richer.

Because Jamie Redknapp can take the initiative to connect with the two wingers in the frontcourt.

And Rivaldo and Ribery's breakthrough ability is obviously stronger than Walcott and Ljungberg!

Just 10 minutes into the game, the tentative stage passed, and the two teams were getting better.

When Ribery was flanked by Eboue and Flamini on the left side of the frontcourt, he decisively passed the ball back in an inverted triangle.

When Jamie Redknapp received the ball, Gilberto Silva directly put down a tackle to destroy the ball.

But the next second we saw Roy Keane taking the ball first.

It was obvious that Arsenal's midfield was empty when the defense dropped quickly.

Baptista and Adebayor's retracement speed and awareness of active defense are not strong.

Most strikers of this era are like this.

It’s hard to say whether the uncle’s fate is uncertain, but he has the temperament to be an uncle anyway.

The dirty work of defense is hard work. Whether you can do it or not depends on your own thoughts.

After Roy Keane stole the ball, he quickly shifted his attack to the right area of ​​the center of the frontcourt.

Davis assisted and sent a direct pass.

Rivaldo cut inside to get rid of Clichy, and Djurou stepped forward to defend.

Rivaldo touched the ball first and moved the ball towards the center like a dragonfly.

Gilberto Silva immediately tried to intercept Ronaldo from behind.

When the alien took the initiative to respond, he directly passed the ball and changed direction to speed up and pass behind Zhu Lu.

Kolo Toure quickly pursued diagonally, and Ronaldo swung his legs to shoot.

Kolo Toure immediately raised his leg to block it.

Unexpectedly, Ronaldo faked a shot in the next second, and his fallen foot once again moved the ball to the right, widening the distance between him and Kolo Toure.

At this time, it was too late for Kolo Toure to start again.

Lyman walked out.

Ronaldo blasted the ball away with a low shot.

Lehmann immediately lowered his weight and stretched his legs in an attempt to intercept.

But the ball is faster!

The football rolled past him first.

He looked back and saw the football rolling into the goal against the inside of the right goal post!

The Elland Road stadium instantly burst into wild cheers from Leeds United fans.

Ronaldo looked relaxed and ran to the sidelines to celebrate with a smile.

"The ball has been scored! Ronaldo! The strongest shooter in the Premier League this season is undoubtedly him!"

"Ruud van Nistelrooy left the Premier League and Henry was injured. In the entire Premier League, who can compete with Ronaldo?"

"It's starting. Regardless of whether Arsenal are happy or not, Leeds United are starting to make them realize the reality!"

Wenger secretly gritted his teeth and his face became even more gloomy.

The strength of Leeds United is obvious to all.

At this moment he was horrified.

Suddenly I realized that I might have been deceived.

Shen Hao's remarks against Arsenal may be a provocation!

When Shen Hao "predicted" that Arsenal would take the approach of setting up buses to try to escape from the Elland Road Stadium.

Wenger couldn't bear to lose face and really asked the team to move forward without even considering defensive counterattacks.

The reasons here are complex.

This includes Arsenal itself, which has been on the road to exquisiteness, gorgeousness, romance and unrestrainedness under Wenger's training over the years.

It’s also about the war between Wenger and Mourinho.

Wenger has ridiculed Mourinho more than once that his techniques and tactics have taken away the fun and excitement of football.

Now he was aroused by Shen Hao again.

It is even less possible for him to fight in Mourinho's way.

But what about reality?

The reality is, do Arsenal have what it takes to beat Leeds United in a head-to-head battle?

You can tell just by looking at the cards that it will be difficult.

Not to mention that Arsenal is still playing away from home.

Wenger shook his head slightly.

Instead of blaming the Leeds tyrants, they played the art of war.

It would be better to say whether I was trying to prove myself because I couldn't accept Arsenal's results, but I lost my rationality and calmness.

The die is cast and the trend is hard to change.

The direction of the game has basically been set.

At this time, Wenger is even less likely to ask the team to withdraw to strengthen defense.

But the necessary knocks on the players are deserved.

While maintaining the same tactical posture, if all Arsenal members can be involved in defense, it will definitely bring about positive changes.

So Wenger gestured with a cold face on the sidelines and shouted to some players on the court.

There is a lot of pressure on the midfield and backfield players.

The only ones who can provide defensive help are the forwards and wide midfielders.

Shen Hao just showed a confident smile for the goal, as if everything was under control.

Guardiola, who was sitting on the coaching bench, had a complicated expression.

He knew that Shen Hao was worried that Arsenal would set up a bus in this game.

But what he didn't expect was that Shen Hao would make Arsenal give up their defensive counterattack tactics in this way.

This has nothing to do with simply coaching the team and directing the game.

It's a higher level of psychological warfare.

Shen Hao has been the target of public criticism since he came to England. Similar to what he said to Arsenal, the coaches of other teams have said even more excessive things to Shen Hao, and many of them are even simple humiliations.

But Shen Hao's reaction never showed any gaffe.

Not to mention losing an inch in the formation of troops.

Clearly, Wenger took the bait.

Guardiola asked himself.

Can he break the rules like Shen Hao?

People's ideas and behavior styles cannot be exactly the same.

Even if one tries to imitate others, those who are better than others will be the minority, and it is the norm that those who are like tigers will not turn out to be like dogs.

Guardiola looked at Shen Hao's back, feeling suddenly heavy.

He knew that when one day he actually took up the coaching staff, he and Shen Hao might become direct competitors.

He had reason to take a high look at himself.

After all, he studied under Cruyff, has rich experience in playing football, and has a lot of platform resources.

The Arsenal generals on the field accelerated the pace.

Leeds United responded calmly, and it can be said that the rhythm was always under Leeds United's control.

When Arsenal adopted a traditional British cross bombing, Stam and Kompany prevented Adebayor and Baptista from capturing excellent opportunities in Leeds United's penalty area.

Just after 20 minutes of the game, Leeds United made a head-on attack in the frontcourt, and Jamie Redknapp dribbled forward to contain Gilberto Silva.

He decisively passed the ball diagonally to the right area in front of the penalty area.

Rivaldo cuts inside and Clichy rushes to help defend the center.

Unexpectedly, Rivaldo spiked the ball and changed direction and then went outside to force a breakthrough.

Zhu Lu stepped in to help defend, and Rivaldo made an emergency stop and reversed the ball to retreat.

Krissy turned around and was passed by again, but Zhu Lu had no time to defend again.

Gilberto Silva retreated into the penalty area and was about to block Rivaldo's cross-cutting line. Rivaldo passed the ball first.

One foot touches the ground and is sent out diagonally.

Ronaldo took Kolo Toure out of the center and the ball rolled past him.

Kolo Toure turned in the direction of the football rolling towards the left rib area of ​​the penalty area while running.

After turning almost 270 degrees, before he could stand firmly, he saw Ribery cutting inside to meet the ball and shoot with his right foot.

The football drew an intoxicating arc and fell into the upper right corner of the goal!

Lehmann's save was belated and meaningless.

The fans in white at Elland Road went crazy!

Ribery roared and rushed to the sideline to celebrate his first goal after returning from injury!
