Legendary Godfather

365: Are we really so vulnerable?

Pochettino stood on the sidelines, staring at Campbell quietly for a while, motionless, as if he wanted to see through Campbell.

Campbell was so frightened by the sight.

Isn't this guy an old glass?

hiss!

When he thought of this, Campbell felt uncomfortable and had goosebumps all over his body.

nausea!

The cameras at the scene were also focused on the two people, which quickly caused the flames of gossip in the hearts of the viewers in front of the TV. They were all shocked. What kind of love is this that can make Pochettino so determined, regardless of the world's eyes?

hiss!

Just Pochettino’s infatuated determination... I love it!

Yue! ??

Some people in front of the TV almost vomited.

Tong Yi also smiled bitterly. Pochettino was eyeing Campbell this time. Of course, it can be seen that Pochettino attaches great importance to Campbell. This game may not be easy to deal with.

Tong Yi also looked at Campbell.

But Campbell looked very relaxed, and it seemed that he was confident. He was not affected by Pochettino's eyes, and his focus was on the game.

Pochettino looked at Campbell for a while, and then chuckled. He didn't know how strong this Campbell was. But this Campbell's determination is really strong. A guy with such determination is definitely difficult to deal with.

I'm afraid this game will be very difficult.

To be honest, Pochettino admires Campbell a little bit.

At this time, the game has begun.

For now, both sides are playing relatively cautiously. Especially for Tottenham Hotspur, it is obvious that they still focus on testing. It seems that Pochettino wants to find out Campbell's tactics before launching an attack.

To be honest, the general idea of ​​Pochettino's Tottenham Hotspur and Tong Yi's tactics are still the same.

Pochettino's tactics are also to make do with running, and the whole team runs as a whole, and the pressing in the frontcourt is also very fierce and aggressive. But there are still many differences in many details, and the running and pressing are also different.

Moreover, Tottenham's tactics include a lot of back-and-forth running in the frontcourt, tearing apart the opponent's defense.

But to be honest, there are not as many offensive routines as Tong Yi's.

Tong Yi's use of the wing is extremely complex, with various incisions and crosses repeatedly crossing, wingers moving in and out, etc. These are things that Pochettino does not have.

However, Pochettino did learn from many of Tong Yi's tactics.

Both Jedinak and Kyle Walker in their formation once played under Tong Yi. They all knew Tong Yi's tactics clearly. Pochettino also asked them about Tong Yi's tactics many times, and then

Tong Yi's tactics were deleted, deleted, added, added, and changed into tactics that suited him.

Therefore, the tactics between the two are somewhat similar.

But there are very big differences in the details.

Not only because of their different coaching philosophies, but also because of the difference in player strength between the two teams.

Take the formation as an example, both teams are different.

To put it bluntly, Tong Yi's formation in Crystal Palace is more like 433, while Tottenham Hotspur's formation is 4231.

The biggest difference actually appears on the front line.

Tottenham Hotspur only has Kane on the front line, which relies heavily on Kane, and Kane's strength is also very large. And in Pochettino's tactics, Kane plays a very important role. He is often the pivot of Tottenham Hotspur's offense and the most important position. Many of Pochettino's tactics rely on Kane, so once Kane is in poor condition, Tottenham Hotspur's results will also be poor.

The three people behind Kane are really much further away from the goal. They will definitely need more back-and-forth running to find space and cooperate with Kane. They cannot threaten the opponent immediately. goal.

They need Kane in transition.

And Crystal Palace has three forwards!

The three of them are closer to the opponent's goal and the threat is more direct. They don't even need to go back and forth, they can directly threaten the opponent's goal themselves. As long as the football is sent to their feet, the threat will be there, and there are many people in the Crystal Palace formation who can directly send the football to the feet of these people, without having to go to Ignacio's feet.

Moreover, Salah and Mane have very strong personal offensive abilities, and their offensive efficiency with the ball is also very high.

These are things that Tottenham Hotspur cannot do now.

Shadley, Sun Heung-min and Lamela behind Kane also have certain offensive capabilities, but they are still far behind Salah. Moreover, Sun Heung-min is more like a false 9 and false 10 player in this tactic. Pochettino wants Sun Heung-min's speed to advance forward, and Kane. Come to a combination of one high and one fast, and hope that Sun Xingmin can simply sort out the offense and deliver threatening balls.

Obviously, Sun Xingmin's ability cannot be achieved.

Moreover, in this position, Sun Xingmin did not feel comfortable playing. His most suitable position is still on the wing and winger. He needs space to take advantage of his speed and ball-handling advantages.

Behind Kane in the middle, he will be restricted a lot.

Therefore, Sun Xingmin is not comfortable playing in this lineup.

In Tong Yi's memory, Sun Xingmin's position later moved to the wing.

The performance improved significantly after that.

At present, this lineup is really not suitable for Sun Xingmin.

More importantly, this also affects Tottenham Hotspur's overall tactics, so this is the reason why Tottenham Hotspur is not performing well now.

Now in the stadium, Pochettino has changed his tactics.

He did not fight to the death with Crystal Palace, nor did he start a fierce confrontation mode with Crystal Palace. He still allowed the team's formation to go back, showing the value of defensive counterattacks.

This shows that Pochettino wants to watch the Crystal Palace people rush out crazily to press high in the frontcourt, and then they can use the speed of Son Heung-min, Lamela and Shadley to defeat Crystal Palace's counterattack. ??

This way their Tottenham chances of winning will be greater.

Therefore, after the game started, Crystal Palace seemed to have an absolute advantage. They completely suppressed Tottenham Hotspur. This makes the Tottenham Hotspur fans at home very nervous and worried. It is very dangerous.

Tottenham Hotspur fans can't stand it anymore.

At this moment, Kanter, who was pressing forward, directly cut off the football from Sun Xingmin's feet!

At this time, it would have been a good opportunity for Tottenham to launch a counterattack. It's a pity that before Sun Xingmin could deal with the ball urgently, the ball was cut off by Kante who suddenly appeared.

Lamela, who was running forward from the sidelines, was very angry and immediately waved his hands and complained to Sun Xingmin, why didn't he pass the football over immediately? It has been passed, I have to take the midfielder and have to do it alone!

Lamela was very unhappy.

Campbell glanced at it and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Sure enough, Sun Xingmin is indeed unable to play his greatest advantage in this position. If you ask Sun Xingmin to sort out offensive passes and threaten the ball, aren't you putting others in danger?

Yes, Sun Xingmin can occasionally sort out the offense simply, and occasionally pass threatening balls.

But this is an accident, not Sun Xingmin’s conventional weapon!

What's more important is that this prevents Sun Xingmin from using his advantages and makes him play very awkwardly!

Because once Tottenham Hotspur gets a chance to counterattack, everyone will almost immediately look for Shadley or Lamela who is advancing from the wing, even if they pass the ball to his feet immediately, He is also a reliever and must get the ball out quickly. He could only follow up first. To be honest, he was very uncomfortable.

But there is no way, this is the current tactic.

And Campbell obviously knows the characteristics of Sun Xingmin and has studied them. Therefore, in this game, Sun Xingmin was frequently targeted, either forcing him to attack immediately, or preventing him from releasing the ball immediately. Anyway, Sun Xingmin was restricted.

\u003e

Then Tottenham Hotspur wanted to bypass Sun Xingmin and go directly to Kane in front.

But they found that Kane was either followed by Van Dijk or Casemiro, making it difficult to catch the ball comfortably. Moreover, Kane's condition is not good, so his success rate of getting the ball is even lower than that of Sun Xingmin.

Therefore, it is worthwhile for Tottenham Hotspur to continue looking for Son Heung-min.

No, Sun Xingmin was intercepted by Kanter as soon as he caught the ball.

This makes Tottenham Hotspur fans very nervous and worried.

This does not seem to be Tottenham Hotspur deliberately showing weakness and falling into passivity. Now they are really passive!

If we continue to play like this, Tottenham Hotspur will be in danger!

Tong Yi, who was in front of the TV, saw this and nodded slightly. Campbell led the team very well today. In this game, Crystal Palace has a chance.

The media reporters in front of the TV and on the scene were all shocked. So far, Campbell has led the team very well. Crystal Palace has taken the initiative and has many opportunities.

If we continue to play like this, Tottenham Hotspur will be in danger!

The camera at the scene immediately reversed and focused on Pochettino. Did they want to see what Pochettino's expression looked like now? Unfortunately, Pochettino was expressionless, which disappointed everyone.

After stealing the ball, the football almost reached the feet of De Bruyne in front.

Crystal Palace's two midfielders, Dyer and Alli, pounced on De Bruyne immediately. Because they know very well how powerful De Bruyne is. If this guy is not restricted, the consequences will be serious.

At this moment, De Bruyne gently pushed the football back to Kante, who came quickly.

Everyone was shocked, no one expected this.

Kante didn't stop the ball, and immediately threw it through. The ball rolled past Dell and went straight into the ribs of Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area.

Ignacio in the middle used his body to resist the center back Oderweirde behind him, clearing the runway for Salah who came in diagonally. Salah moved forward quickly, got rid of the full-back Walker, caught up with the football, quickly swung his legs, fake shot and dunked, shook Lloris in front of the goal, and then swung his legs again to volley into the far corner. , then with a flick of his ankle, he whipped the football directly toward the lower corner of the goal.

Lloris was completely deceived and pounced on the far side.

The ball rolled into Tottenham Hotspur's goal without any suspense, clinging to the inside of the near post.

One to zero, Crystal Palace, playing away from home, took the lead.

Suddenly, all the Tottenham Hotspur fans at the scene widened their eyes in disbelief. How could this be? Are Tottenham Hotspur really that vulnerable? The goal was breached immediately?
