Chapter 703 Messi's Disaster

Sometimes it is not easy to be honest.

Just like after the away draw with Newcastle, Ye Qiu once said that Tottenham Hotspur now needs such a blow. He believes that a draw or even a loss can bring more to the team.

This is understood by many people as Ye Qiu's pride and arrogance, but this is the truth.

For Tottenham Hotspur’s entire tactical system, it has basically taken shape. No matter how you adjust or change it, all you can do is to add more elements into this system, or make changes and adjustments in local details to make it look more balanced and more powerful.

Using this accumulation of quantitative change, it eventually evolves into a qualitative change.

Everyone can see that after Fabregas, David Silva and Yaya and Toure, Tottenham Hotspur's entire midfielder has undergone a major change. If there is any difference between Ramsey, Vidal and Pirlo's midfielder compared to last season, then the biggest difference is running and coverage.

If we look at it overall, the midfield strength this season may not be as good as last season, but one thing to know is that the combination of Fabregas, David Silva and Yaya and Toure has reached its peak, and it is impossible to make any major progress and transformation. However, the combination of Ramsey and Vidal has just begun, and whether the position of the midfielder is Pirlo or someone else is an unknown number. It is both a hidden danger and an opportunity.

Because he was going to play the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals in mid-week, Ye Qiu made adjustments to this game against Newcastle, and this time he learned from the experience and lessons of the St. James Park Stadium game | made adjustments to the starting lineup.

Goalkeeper Cech, the defense line is Alba, Nastasic, Thiago Silva and Kyle Walker, the midfield is Ramsey, Sandro and Phil Jones respectively, and the frontcourt Trident also made large-scale adjustments. Ribery occupied the starting lineup, and Messi and Hazard started at the same time.

Refrigerated the main center Cavani and veteran Raul, coupled with Vidal who was slightly injured in the midfield and core player Pirlo, Tottenham Hotspur's rotation was quite large, but the tactics reflected on the court were shocking, especially for Redknapp, who completely misjudged Ye Qiu's idea.

If I follow the original idea, Ibrahimovic is still focusing on attacking behind Pirlo and in front of the central defender, as the current goal point, but after Ye Qiu's adjustment, they have to find that once Ibrahimovic gets the ball, the surroundings are surrounded by Tottenham Hotspur players.

Sandro and Phil or Jones are relatively dragged behind, and they are more in protecting the defense line and the ribs, but Ramsey is in a higher position, while the frontcourt Trident is very erratic. On which side of the ball is on, the players on the Trident will retreat to respond, and they often change positions frequently.

At the beginning of the game, Newcastle wanted to make the previous long pass and rush out and handed the ball to Ibrahimovic, but the Swede could not pass it again as soon as he got the ball, and was cut off by Tottenham Hotspur and then launched another counterattack.

Hazadra went to the right and got a pass from Kyle or Walker. He forced his way through Coentrane from the right, and then broke into the penalty area and hit Messi on the outside of the arc top of the penalty area. The Argentine directly pushed a straight pass without stopping the ball. Hazad rushed into the penalty area and formed a two-pass and one-slamming wall-like cooperation with Messi.

Ziglinsky's position was very good, blocking Hazard's route to the goal, but as soon as the Belgian stopped the ball, he dunked over Ziglinsky, dunked the ball towards the bottom line, and rushed to the bottom line quickly, snatching before Ziglinsky and Coentrane, a cross in front of the goal was passed.

The goalkeeper did not react much to the ball. Ribery, who was surrounded by the back point, quickly followed up and easily pushed the empty goal in front of the goal. 0 Just four minutes after the game began, Tottenham Hotspur took the lead in knocking on Newcastle's goal.

If the ball looks a little sudden, then two minutes later, Tottenham Hotspur's backcourt Kyle or Walker made Mota's long pass to find Lavic's header back to the midfield. Sandro did not wait for the ball to land and hooked it to Phil or Jones on the right. The latter stopped the ball and turned around. The whole process was very smooth and steady, showing solid basic skills. Then he passed it with a long pass and planned a counterattack.

Phil or Jones' long pass was indeed not very creative, it can only be said to be just right. Messi had to quickly pull to the right to catch the ball, but the speed had slowed down. Coentrane blocked Messi's inward cut. The Argentine scored a cross from the right, and Hazard, who moved to the middle, followed this time and directly grabbed the point and hit the ball at the front of the small penalty area.

Six minutes, in just six minutes, Tottenham Hotspur took a two-goal lead

Redknapp has seen it clearly this time. Ye Qiu can't give him the same chance as before. For Tottenham Hotspur, their loopholes will only be captured once, so Ye Qiu's rotation this time is to keep his strength in the mid-week Champions League match, but also to play surprises, making your previous targeted tactics completely useless.

After seeing this, Redknapp had to make adjustments and the team began to try to stabilize the situation. After all, Tottenham Hotspur scored two goals at the beginning, which was too much pressure for Newcastle, who played away.

But Tottenham Hotspur is a little unreasonable. This is the White Hart Lane Stadium, their home court, and they have achieved such a dreamy start after the game, so they have no idea of ​​stopping, especially for several players on the team who rotated on the court, they all want to prove their strength with a wonderful game.

Newcastle is also very strong and has a strong overall strength. It quickly stabilizes the situation, but Tottenham Hotspurs has a way to slow down. They are also good at creating loopholes through continuous passes and pulls in a slow rhythm, and threatens to be no less than a sharp attack at a fast pace.

Sandro took the ball and passed it to the right. Phil Jones passed it to Kyle Walker, and the latter passed it forward to Hazard, but there was no chance in front. Hazard directly knocked back to Sandro who was behind. The return pass of the ball of at least fifteen meters was very fast, but Sandro stopped very steadily and stopped directly to the left, turned around and dribbled the ball to the left, and then divided again.

Alba came up and received the ball. He did not pull Ribery near the left line. Instead, he directly rubbed his left foot and passed the ball inward, which was inserted into the left side of Ramsey. The Welsh was in physical contact with Mota who was defending him. He bumped and bumped when dribbled, but after entering the penalty area, he still seized an opportunity and crossed it to the goal.

Messi rushed to the middle, and both Ribery and Hazard scored goals in this game. As a trident, Messi also wanted to score, so he rushed to the goal, but Ramsey's pass was lowered. After Messi came to his senses, he had to turn around, but Ziglinski was blocking behind him. Although Messi was able to catch the ball, he lost the angle of the shot.

The Argentinian reacted very quickly and was quick to make a fool of himself. He gave up his chance to shoot and directly stopped the ball at the penalty point. Phil O-Jones, who followed behind, directly kicked the ball, and shot.

This is a penalty kick, and there are no defensive players around. If Phil or Jones still can't make it, he will definitely be drowned by his teammates' saliva. Tottenham Hotspur took a 0 lead in the 21st minute

Although Tottenham Hotspur has frequently launched offensives and frequently obtained opportunities to score goals, and Messi also played a key role in these attacks, it is surprising that he always misses the goal a little bit.

It was as if in the 27th minute, Ribery broke the ball under Van der Welter and made a very threatening counterattack. The entire backcourt was a three-for-three situation. Although Ribery's cross was to Hazard on the right, the Belgian stopped the ball back to the middle, but Messi, who followed, shot a little bit.

Too anxious, too pursuing angle

Even when the game reached the 32nd minute, Tottenham Hotspur intercepted the ball in the backcourt and launched a counterattack again. Ramsey passed the ball on the left, and Ribery dribbled the ball and broke into the 30-meter area. Ribery avoided Hazard in the middle and passed the ball to Messi on the right side of the arc. The latter got the ball and entered the penalty area and shot directly.

But the goalkeeper performed as if he was helping this time. After blocking the ball, Messi still had a chance and had to go up and make a shot again. However, Kyle or Walker who inserted it later had a sprint speed this time was too fast. He shot directly in the penalty area and hit 40

Three assists and one planned attack. The team's four goals are closely related to Messi. The Argentine is constantly trying to score goals in this game, but he is just a little bit behind the goal.

Andy Grey, who was once the top scorer in England's top league, also joked, believing that sometimes the scorer is so helpless, just lacking such a little luck, which leads to a little bit of his follow-up goals.

But Andy and Gray also highly praised Messi's performance in this game, believing that with the team's tactical adjustment, Messi got more opportunities to get the ball and make the ball. The offensive trident in the entire frontcourt has almost no fixed pattern or position, and is constantly changing, making Newcastle's defense very difficult.

Messi's last pass is an important weapon for the team to establish an advantage early in this game

The first half ended with Tottenham Hotspur's unstoppable lead of 40. After Ye Qiu took a big lead, he made adjustments in the midfield and replaced Ribery with Neymar. The Frenchman had just returned from injury and performed quite well after taking the game. He had to save some strength to play in the mid-week Champions League.

Then Pogba replaced Ramsey, and the team's entire midfield and frontcourt also adjusted, except Messi.

Ye Qiu knew Messi too well, he knew very well that the Argentinian needed a game at this time, and he wanted to score a goal.

The assisted hat-trick is indeed a very good result for Messi, but judging from his performance in this game, he hopes to get a goal. Even though he is already far ahead in the league scorer list, he is still full of desire for goals.

Ye Qiu knew very well that if Messi was replaced at this time, the Argentine would definitely be unhappy, so he continued to let Messi stay on the court, but he did not specifically remind other players of the team to make goals for Messi. This is not Ye Qiu's style.

But everyone seemed to know Messi's idea very well, and they were actively working hard to create opportunities in the game. At this time, Newcastle had been completely beaten by Tottenham Hotspur and lost his fighting spirit. The game was completely dominated by Tottenham Hotspur. The fans in the stands of the White Hart Lane Stadium were also cheering for Messi, hoping that he could score a goal.

Until the 73rd minute of the game, Sandro transferred a big foot in the middle and passed the ball to the right. The unguarded Kyle O Walker rushed forward at high speed. After receiving the ball, he took it to the right side of the penalty area. After Cointron rushed to defend, he made a high-ball cross.

The landing point of the cross from the ball was at the back of the goal. Pogba, who replaced Ramsey, rushed forward quickly. He jumped high outside the goal frame and headed the ball to hit the ball. However, the goalkeeper reacted very quickly and made a save, but the ball did not save far. Messi, who followed behind, instinctively raised his foot and picked it up, and the ball entered Newcastle's goal.

0

The entire White Hart Lane Stadium seemed to have been detonated. Almost all the fans stood up frantically, shouting Messi's name. The Argentine superstar rushed to the sidelines and kept waving to the fans in the stands, venting their excitement and excitement after scoring the goal.

He has missed many opportunities in this game, but he finally seized it.

"For players of Messi's level, if they don't score goals in a game, it will be a disaster," Andy Grey said in admiration.

This is true. In the past few seasons, Messi has always been the best player in the team. Although Ye Qiu corrected his development direction, he still adapted to Tottenham's tactics well with his outstanding football skills and pushed his career to the highest level.

Three passes and one shot, Messi can finally walk off the court with satisfaction

When the Argentinian ended up, he smiled and hugged Ye Qiu to celebrate, which made people have to admit that Ye Qiu is definitely the head coach who knows Messi best in the world today, and is also the head coach who can best exert Messi's strength.

Perhaps, it is almost impossible to create a new Messi again, but it is difficult for Messi to meet a head coach who can use him as well as Ye Qiu and know him so well.

It's hard to say who made who, but it can only be said that each other made each other

Tottenham Hotspur beaten Newcastle five goals at home, Tottenham Hotspur's first match this season: the depressedness of being forced to draw, and at the same time, it also pushed its unbeaten record to 75 games. This is almost a new record that other teams in the top five European leagues are beyond the reach of.

But according to the evaluation of football legend Leinkell after the game, Tottenham Hotspur players are just like Messi in this game. Every game is full of all kinds of desires, and this desire has brought them motivation, allowing them to maintain a strong desire to play even today.

"Until now, we have to admit that Ye Qiu decided to sell Fabregas, David O Silva and Yaya O Toure were right. This was not only for tactical considerations, but also for the team's spirit."

"As we all know, there is a saying in the field of head coaching that you should consider changing after staying in one place for four years."

"This is a very common consensus, because four years are enough for you to have all the details of the same place from fresh and familiarity, then to lack of interest, and finally to be tired of it. This is why so many head coaches admire Ferguson so much. At least he has been at Manchester United for a long enough time and has been successful."

"So, Ye Qiu used such a big change to hit his players and aroused their fighting spirit and desires

Ye Qiu also expressed his satisfaction with the game at the post-match press conference and joked, "We won't fall twice in the same opponent."

After Tottenham Hotspur slaughtered Newcastle at home, the 25th round of the Premier League also came to the results one after another.

Although Manchester City was reversed by Tottenham Hotspur in the last round and suffered a big blow, this time this time he challenged Aston Villa, Manchester City still withstood the pressure well. Relying on Lescott's goal, he narrowly defeated Aston Villa 0 away.

Looking at the whole game, Manchester City's performance was indeed not ideal, but the overall strength of this team is still very outstanding, especially the thickness of the bench and the combat effectiveness of the main players, which are not dared to underestimate.

In another key battle, Liverpool defeated the Red Devils Manchester United. Although Benitez's team was eliminated from the Champions League, it was very competitive in the league and performed better and better, especially after strengthening the bench thickness this season, the top four in the league basically couldn't escape.

West Ham United beat West Bromvic at home, attacking the top four of the league, while Chelsea lost 0 to Everton away, and Boas's Stamford Bridge trip has basically come to an end. There are reports that Abramovich has issued a strong invitation to Barcelona's Guardiola.

The renewal of Guardiola and Barcelona has never been given a result. It is revealed that Barcelona has booked Guardiola's successor, that is, assistant coach Bilanova, while Abramovich hopes to invite Guardiola to coach in the Premier League, and has offered extremely generous conditions and power.

But all things are only in the speculation stage at the moment, and even Ye Qiu can't clearly know the result. After all, Barcelona is not as strong as their previous life. At best, they have won a Champions League. However, their advantage in La Liga is indeed very obvious, and even Real Madrid is worse than that.
