Strong Waist

  Chapter 870 Kanter! Mark!

"Martinez! Let us remember this Argentine goalkeeper, he used excellent performance to deny Chelsea's shots again and again! A free kick, a penalty kick, Martinez's performance is incredible! I think those fans who doubt the Argentine goalkeeper Time to shut up, this performance is good enough to be Arsenal's starting goalkeeper!"

  Martinez was also excited and waved his arms towards the stands, his expression was equally excited.

  The two saves were in good condition, and he felt that after this save, the whole person became more confident.

   It is foreseeable that Martinez will be in a period of bursting in this state for a while.

  However, it soon entered the intermission. Despite Chelsea's performance, they still failed to get a chance to equalize the score.

  In Arsenal's dressing room, Mourinho rarely praised Martinez.

  No one has any opinion on this.

  Martinez's performance in the first half deserves this praise.

   Even many Arsenal players took the initiative to give applause, which also made Martinez look more confident.

  Since joining Arsenal, Martinez has experienced years of wandering, and also experienced the stage from substitute to starting.

   That period of time was confusing and bewildering.

  But now Martinez is grateful for that time, the precipitation at that time made him what he is today.

  A calm goalkeeper in front of the goal!

   "Okay, let's talk about the tactics in the second half!"

Mourinho interrupted the conversation of his teammates, waited for silence and said: "Although we are ahead by one goal, Chelsea's attack is still effective. It can be said that if it is not for Martinez's performance, we may have conceded the goal. !"

  "In the second half, we couldn't give the opponent too many chances, especially for set kicks. Cesc Fabregas has a good foot feel, let alone a penalty kick! When defending in the penalty area, the arms are lowered!"

   Mourinho explained one by one, he sorted out all the problems that existed in the first half, so that the Gunners have enough intuitive understanding.

   Lucky and others listened carefully.

   Next, in the defensive arrangement, Mourinho still let Lucky take on the defensive job.

   Mourinho is determined to force Arsenal's other offensive systems, so he put Lucky in the back.

  Of course, Lucky is not completely incapable of attacking. There is really a good chance that Lucky will also participate in the offense.

   But in terms of tactical system, Lucky needs to undertake the defensive work.

  Compared to Arsenal's side, Chelsea's internal atmosphere is much more anxious.

  Many Chelsea players were nervously discussing their problems in the first half.

  "The striker can't score the goal, the defense can't defend the ball, the midfielder can't hold the ball, our integrity is too bad!"

  Azpilicueta complained: "I think I have to drop a player to play a back four!"

   Seriously, Arsenal put too much pressure on them in the first half.

  Azpilicueta and other defenders felt tremendous pressure.

  Although the 3-back tactic is popular nowadays, it also depends on who you play with. When facing Arsenal, a 3-back system is used. Arsenal can mess up their defense with a single charge.

   This is a situation they don't want to see.

   And the most important thing is that even if the weight of the midfielder is increased, the effect is minimal.

  Azpilicueta made a suggestion, but some differences occurred within the team.

  Some people think that the defense should be strengthened, and some people feel that they are behind and should increase the offensive ability.

   Just when the two sides were in dispute, Conte made a decision.

"Continue to maintain the original tactical system, guys, we have no advantage, we can't play so leisurely, even if it is a little risky, we still have a chance to win at home. Once we really retreat and defend, the game will become more serious. Ugly! I don't think you want to hear boos from our fans either!"

  Hearing this, the faces of Chelsea players became serious one by one.

  In the case of falling behind at home, adopting a conservative defensive posture will indeed cause dissatisfaction and even boos from the fans.

"But if it remains the same, we may concede more goals!" Cahill spread his hands and said; "We need to know that there is someone on Arsenal who did not participate in the offense. I think you all know who I am talking about , Once Kai joins the offense, it will be a different situation!"

  "We all know that Kay is also very capable on the offensive end!"

   Everyone looked at the head coach Conte again, who pursed his lips tightly, as if he was engaged in an ideological struggle.

   After a while, he waved his hands fiercely and said, "Just keep it as it is!"

  Since Conte insisted, they have nothing to do.

  However, some players began to look at Conte with a look of scrutiny.

  Obviously, they didn't agree with the head coach's tactical arrangement, they just obeyed the opponent's order because the opponent was the head coach.

   This also means that the contradictions in the Chelsea team are slowly growing and fermenting.

  During the intermission, both sides got ample rest.

  When the two returned to the court, the atmosphere on the scene was still extremely lively.

"At the end of the half-time break, Arsenal and Chelsea will switch sides. Neither side has made much adjustments during the half-time break. Conte still maintains the position of the three central defenders, and Arsenal has no staff transfer!"

   "The game is likely to continue the rhythm of the first half!"

After Andy Gray finished speaking, Richard on the side said; "Chelsea can't do anything at this time. They are playing at home. It would be too shameful if they put on a defensive posture at home. At this time, Conte can only Hold on, and Chelsea's attack in the first half was not completely ineffective, they can pin their hopes on Eden Hazard."

  Andy Gray shook his head: "Is it Hazard again?"

  Richard: "There is no other way than this!"

  Chelsea really can only put the weight on Hazard, which is also their main means of winning. Hazard's performance determines the direction of Chelsea's game.

  However, according to the previous statement, Hazard did not perform particularly well every time he faced Arsenal.

  It seems that Arsenal can always limit Hazard.

   And for Hazard himself, every time he plays against Arsenal, he also feels bad.

  There is always a feeling of not being able to kick.

  Before it was restricted by Lucky, but now it has changed to a winger, and Kanter and Bellerin are watching it again.

  Although the pressure is not as good as that of Lucky, it still makes him feel uncomfortable.

  But Hazard also knows that once he fails to perform, what will be left to Chelsea.

   Therefore, he must force himself to perform.

   "Pass the ball to me!"

   Hazard said with a heavy face.

   Chelsea players have no opinion on this.

   Even if Hazard doesn't say it, they plan to do it.

  In fact, they are already used to the game style of being led by Hazard.

   On the other side, Le Kai also told his teammates.

   "Be careful! Hazard! In the second half, Chelsea will definitely shift more offensive direction to Hazard."

   Regarding this, Kanter nodded seriously.

  Although Kanter’s performance on the defensive end is not as stable as Lucky, he can still watch Hazard for a certain period of time. With the addition of Bellerin, the two of them are enough for Hazard.

  It can be said that in this game, Kanter's only job is to watch Hazard.

  Compared to a defensive midfielder, Kanter's role in this game is more inclined to the 'marking' attribute.

  Wherever Hazard ran, he followed.

   Unless Hazard runs back to his own half.

   Not long after, Chelsea center Morata came to the center circle, ready to kick off.

  With the sound of the whistle, the second half of the game kicked off.

   As soon as the game started, Chelsea suddenly launched a sneak attack.

  They want to take advantage of Arsenal's relaxation period and play an unexpected attack.

   But Arsenal's vigilance exceeded their expectations.

  Just as the ball was about to fly towards Hazard, Kanter suddenly made a diagonal thrust, and a sliding shovel fell to the ground to shovel the ball out of the baseline.

"This guy!"

   Hazard watched Kanter get up, pat his **** and walk away, his teeth itching with hatred.

   Kanter stared at him playing football on this field, which has long made Hazard feel irritated.

   And now the other party is even clinging to him, as if following him to the ends of the earth, which makes him even more distressed.
