Volume 1: When a Hero Appears, People Pay Attention. Chapter 72: Vent Your Anger (Second Update Guaranteed)
This Arsenal team now plays the same kind of football as the Arsenal coached by Arsene Wenger. Their small-scale cooperation is very skillful and full of inspiration. At the front of the opponent's penalty area, they will use the cooperation between two or three people to tear apart the opponent's defense line, and then go straight to Huanglong.
With this style, when Arsenal is going smoothly, their offense is as smooth as flowing water, which is very beautiful to watch.
However, such tactics also have their own shortcomings. That means the defense is not strong enough.
This Arsenal team blindly pursues offensive splendor and neglects defense.
Or maybe they think the entire team should be gorgeous. So if the offense is gorgeous, the defense must also be gorgeous.
Gorgeous defense means lack of hardness on defense.
The consequence of this lack of toughness is...when they encounter a team with equally good offense, they will die miserably.
This is how Arsenal was eliminated in the last 16 of the Champions League this season.
It's not that Hall is unaware of this problem, but that he has no other choice but to do so.
Today's Arsenal is very twisted and deformed. As long as he has a slightly defensive attitude, he will be criticized as "utilitarian" and will be classified as the opposite of those who insist on Arsenal's style. Then whenever there is any problem with his team's performance, he and his "emphasis on defense" will become the scapegoat.
This season, his team was eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League, but Arsenal fans and executives gave him enough tolerance and patience. Especially those fans, they think that even if they lose the game, this is the Arsenal they want to see, and then they start to dream that in another season or two, there will be enough Arsenal who insist on this style of play. After the accumulation, we can sweep across Europe.
And if he is a head coach who values defense, his fate will definitely be different after being eliminated from the Champions League.
This has become a factional fight.
It's not about football anymore.
So even if Hall is aware of this problem, he is unable to change it. He can only hope that his team will be in good shape and have a combat effectiveness bonus at home, and then defeat Liverpool in an offensive battle.
But what is the probability of this?
Hall is not very optimistic anyway.
He is now thinking the same thing as many coaches from other teams. That is, no matter how ambitious or plotted you are. They all waited until Chen Yingxiong retired before using it.
Anyway, they don't have to wait long, Chen Yingxiong will retire soon.
Hall felt that he had caught up in a good time. Before him, there were many better managers than him who coached Arsenal. But no matter how ambitious you are. In the end, they had no choice but to accept the reality that Liverpool monopolized the championship and left the Emirates Stadium in despair.
Because they didn't catch the right time, they showed up at the wrong time.
He is a negative example. He thinks that his level is not top-notch, but he coached Arsenal at a very correct time. His luck has always been very good, and he led Arsenal to the league championship last season, which is the best proof.

Those Arsenal fans who arrived late were still busy trying to figure out what to do in the stands.
In the TV broadcast, the commentator was announcing the lineup of players from both sides.
Some Chinese fans on the other side of the world woke up a few minutes later and had just put on their clothes to turn on the TV.
At this moment, the goal appeared!
※ ※ ※
"Hero...Hero! Hero--Hero!!!!"
Accompanied by the commentator's roar, which was getting louder and louder. The football was knocked headlong into the goal by Chen Yingxiong!
After landing, he opened his arms and started running towards the stands where the Liverpool fans gathered.
And his teammates. Then followed him excitedly.
The Arsenal players on the field and the Arsenal fans in the stands were stunned.
Those Arsenal fans who were looking for seats in the stands with their backs to the stadium turned around and looked at the stadium with surprised faces - they still didn't understand what was happening.
"Beautiful header! It's hard for you to believe that an old guy who is about to be 41 years old can still jump so high in the air! This simply goes against the laws of nature! But the hero is different, he does not rely on jumping, he It’s flying!”
"Before the game, many people were wondering what this focused match would be like...but who would have thought that Liverpool would take the lead just two minutes into the game?"
"The hero scored his 37th league goal this season! This is really scary! Think about what he was doing in the first half of the league? He didn't play a single game! He scored in only twelve rounds Thirty-seven goals... This goal efficiency is really terrible! What would happen if he could play a whole season?"
Amid the cheers of the commentator, Chen Yingxiong finally ran under the stands where Liverpool fans gathered.
He then punched the Liverpool crest on his chest.
This action drew a collective roar from Liverpool fans.
"Champion! Champion! We want to take back what belongs to us!"
See this scene. A commentator sighed: "Arsenal is really lucky. If their hero hadn't been suspended for nine months last season, it would have been impossible for them to win the league championship... Now it seems that it's time for them to pay back their debts for last season... …Arsenal’s fighting spirit and morale are not at the same level as Liverpool’s…”
There were people who were starry-eyed before the game - mainly Arsenal fans.
But Chen Yingxiong's goal woke up Arsenal fans from their dream.
Many Arsenal fans sat in their seats, feeling desperate again.
They are familiar with this emotion because they have experienced it many times in the past ten years.
This comes from the invincible Liverpool team and the invincible Chen Yingxiong.
Although Chen Yingxiong will retire next season, today, he can still make Arsenal fans despair!
※ ※ ※
After Chen Yingxiong opened the scoring for the team with a header, Liverpool's offensive did not end there.
Their attack became even fiercer.
A ball cannot satisfy them at all.
Losing the league championship at the last minute of last season was a huge blow to them.
That defeat left Liverpool's players ridiculed. Because everyone is laughing at them as parasites on Chen Yingxiong. They can only rely on Chen Yingxiong to support them. Without Chen Yingxiong, their true colors will be revealed.
As a professional player, who wants to be evaluated like this? They do not deny that they have won many championships that they could not win before because of Chen Yingxiong, but the question is why can they become Chen Yingxiong's teammates? There are so many professional players in the world, why are they the only ones who can become members of this championship team?
This shows that they are capable and they are qualified to be a member of this team, so no one can doubt their ability.
It is really insulting to say that they are parasites of Chen Yingxiong.
So these Liverpool players are very unhappy.
They can't go directly to those who laugh at them, but they can blame Arsenal for all their mistakes.
If it wasn't Arsenal, how could they be laughed at?
Under the influence of Chen Yingxiong, the temperament of the Liverpool team and the temperament of Chen Yingxiong have been highly integrated.
That means you must retaliate, and you would rather be a villain than a gentleman.
So in this game, Arsenal is destined to face the anger that Liverpool players have accumulated for a year.
※ ※ ※
In the twenty minutes after Chen Yingxiong gave the team the lead, Liverpool's fierce offensive did not stop at all.
Arsenal's players and fans were still waiting for Liverpool's wave of offensive to pass at first, and they launched a counterattack to regain the initiative. Who would have thought that after this wave passes, there will be another wave, and after the next wave passes, there will be another wave. Just one wave after another, without any interruption or transition, as if it would never stop.
The Arsenal players in the game were passing by every second.
The Arsenal fans in the stands were stunned.
The commentator in the commentary box was extremely excited.
They were chanting: "This is Liverpool's most powerful offensive! It's the kind of offensive frenzy that can suffocate! When they dominated Europe, they relied on this offensive to solve the problem in the first twenty minutes of the game. Fighting! However, as the hero ages, we have rarely seen such attacks in recent seasons... I didn’t expect that we would be able to see it again before Chen Yingxiong retired!"
Without their introduction, how could the fans not know about it?
Liverpool's attack was so famous back then that even Barcelona, which was good at attacking, was defeated by their stormy offensive combination.
Anyone who pays attention to European football cannot fail to know about Liverpool's attacking frenzy.
Most of the time Liverpool uses defensive counterattacks as their main weapon and team style, but they are most famous for their offense.
With Chen Yingxiong, it is difficult to think well of the offense.
Only with the aging of the commentators and the retirement of Martin O'Neal, this offensive frenzy gradually disappeared.
Unexpectedly, Gerald has now regained his strength and shown himself in front of everyone.
Many Arsenal fans, when they saw this scene, suddenly realized that they might not only lose to Liverpool at this home court, but in the competition for the league championship, they would also lose to Liverpool in all likelihood... …
※ ※ ※
After Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in the first two minutes, there was indeed no suspense about the outcome of this game.
Twenty minutes later, Liverpool scored again, and their fierce offensive finally completely destroyed Arsenal's defense.
The offensive football and beautiful football that Arsenal fans are proud of are indeed exquisite, but in front of Liverpool, a barbarian who does not understand the style, no matter how beautiful the art is, it is nothing more than a pile of fragile porcelain.
Got beaten to a pulp by Liverpool!
After Carlton Cole scored the team's second goal, Liverpool's goals came one after another.
In the first half, Liverpool scored four goals.
Another massacre seemed just around the corner. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
