Chapter 785 Tottenham Hotspur Era

Tottenham Hotspur entered the halftime break with a 0 lead, but in these fifteen minutes, Ye Qiu emphasized the most about how to defend strictly after the start of the second half. This is indeed rare in Tottenham Hotspur.

"Once Dortmund is beaten, they will be a group of crazy people who are desperate. A crazy person is enough to have a headache, let alone a big crazy person with a group of small crazy people. Therefore, the best and most effective way is to make them crazy."

If it is leaked, Ye Qiu's words will definitely cause controversy or even criticism, but he has absolutely no malice. He is just reminding everyone that they are a group of unreasonable guys who are rude and unreasonable. Once they get the stance, let alone Tottenham Hotspur only leads two goals, even if they give them four goals, it is not safe to give them a lead of four goals.

Last season, Bayern Munich was ambitious to ask for the Bundesliga and the German Cup, but the German Cup final was slaughtered by Dortmund. Who would have thought? Heinx's team may not even be clear about how they lost in the end.

Klopp likes to cheer up players during mid-time break, so Dortmund encounters some counter-trend games. Often after halftime break, after charging, he will always exert force, and will start a wave of attacks and suppression at the beginning of the second half.

Facts proved that Ye Qiu's caution was right. Dortmund did keep attacking from the beginning in the second half.

After fifteen minutes of rest and charging, and Klopp probably brainwashed each of them in the midfield, they all pressed up in the second half, even Tottenham Hotspur inevitably was in a passive situation.

When the second half reached the 53rd minute, Dortmund once again broke into the front of Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area. Reus shot vigorously, and the ball hit Vidal's leg and bounced into the penalty area. Lewandowski was aiming at the goal, behind him was Kompany, who was defending him, but saw the Poles pulling the ball with their left and right feet, turning around, and making room for themselves to shoot. Then, he volleyed hard with his right foot, and the ball was straight at the goal.

The entire West Stadium was completely boiling, and all the Hornet fans were shouting Lewandowski's name. This was indeed a pretty goal, fully reflecting Lewandowski's exquisite and comprehensive technical characteristics, as well as his calmness and reaction ability at critical moments.

If Ye Qiu wants to evaluate it, this goal is a complete reflection of his personal ability. He has delicate feet, excellent physical fitness, can withstand defensive players, and can also hold on to the ball under his feet. Such a player can have many ways to use it because he is comprehensive enough to provide changes to the team's frontcourt tactics.

Compared with Cavani, Lewandowski can bring some changes to Tottenham Hotspur's frontcourt combination.

Whether it is Messi, Ribery, Hazard and Neymar, they are all players with super personal abilities but also very good team roles. Cavani's presence provides a lot of frontcourt running coverage and pressure, but his feet with other teammates are not rich enough.

This caused a problem with Tottenham Hotspur's frontcourt combination. Cavani provided defense, running and impact, but became the most awkward part of the frontcourt offensive combination. Often, the ball was not lost at Messi and Ribery's feet, but it broke when he arrived.

Lewandowski's header is inferior to Cavani, and his active defense coverage is not as good as Cavani, but he also has the advantages of Cavani, which is his rich and diverse tactical changes, as well as the ball and shot from the frontcourt fulcrum. More importantly, based on these abilities, he also has excellent foot skills and personal scoring abilities.

If we look at the card simply from the perspective of the card, Lewandowski replaced Cavani, the pressure on the frontcourt will decline, which will definitely require the team to adjust in the midfield, but the team's offensive ability will rise to a higher level, and Ribery, Messi and others will be even more at ease in the frontcourt.

There are gains and losses. When Cavani is about to leave the team, Ye Qiu feels that introducing Lewandowski is indeed a pretty good choice, and the key is that Lewandowski has no other competitors now, only one Bayern Munich.

Manchester United and Real Madrid said they were interested in Lewandowski, but they did not actually take action.

"What do you think?" Ye Qiu asked Mauro Tassoti beside him.

After Lewandowski stole a goal for Dortmund, Ye Qiu just reminded the players to be careful and continue to defend, while Dortmund took advantage of the momentum of a goal and wanted to make another attack, so the current situation was a bit unfavorable to Tottenham Hotspur, but Ye Qiu was not worried.

This is a away game, with two goals in hand, what should Tottenham Hotspur worry about?

"If he is really used to play center, Pirlo may have to take it down." Mauro Tassoti also considered the issue purely from a tactical level, because Pirlo has accepted the team's proposal and is willing to continue to stay in the team and compete with all his teammates for the main position of the next season, with the purpose of the Brazil World Cup.

As for the World Cup, he considered continuing to play football, but planned to retire from the national team, so he might leave the team.

This is also impossible. Tottenham Hotspurs cannot provide him with the promise of a main position. After all, Pirlo's position is too important. It was in the best situation last season, but it has been hit many times this season, so Ye Qiu had to make adjustments and preparations in advance.

If the next season really comes to Tottenham Hotspur wishes, introducing Lewandowski and replacing Cavani, the final result is that midfielder Pirlo will be beaten by more people. Tottenham Hotspur may still remain strong in the Premier League, but it is definitely impossible in the Champions League, because opponents will play against this point.

"From the moment, no one in our team has the ability to replace Pirlo in the midfield, so we have to sign ups, which brings a risk. The second risk is Lewandowski's arrival. He can indeed provide the team's forward stability and offensive firepower in the next five years, but whether it can quickly integrate into the team in the next season is also a question."

In the past few years, the number of Bundesliga players has increased. One of the main reasons is that Bundesliga players have high cost performance and low salary. It is undoubtedly a very ideal choice for wealthy Premier League teams. With the mainlandization of the Premier League tactical environment, these players have basically achieved value when they come to the Premier League.

Of course, it is a bit difficult to quickly integrate into a new environment in a short period of time, but many people have also shown their strength, such as Arsenal's central defenders Mertesak and Podolski, Tottenham's Vidal, and as for Manchester City's Dzeko, it's purely because Manchester City has too many forwards, and even Dzeko has to play as a substitute.

But as long as it is a transfer or tactical adjustment, it will definitely bring risks, and no one can guarantee 100% success.

After hearing this, Ye Qiu smiled, "Then I will lay the groundwork for you, listen to you, both midfielders are brought in, sell Sandro, and strive for Lewandowski. I will help you integrate first. Even if the results are not bad, the fans will not scold me."

Mauro Tasotti couldn't laugh because Ye Qiu was preparing for his future succession.

According to Ye Qiu's plan, he will leave the head coach position after coaching the next season. At that time, what he left for Mauro Tassoti is an integrated lineup that has been running-in for a year, so it will be much easier for Mauro Tassoti to take over, but the risks and pains brought by the adjustment will be borne by Ye Qiu because he is still the head coach.

Even now, everything seems to be done by Mauro Tassoti, except on-site command and tactical arrangements.

Sometimes, Mauro Tassoti feels lucky because he meets a boss who knows football and team operations better than anyone else. Although he also knows that taking over Ye Qiu's class is very, very difficult, but after Ye Qiu made so much preparations for him, this is more of an opportunity for him.

And Ye Qiu once said that if you give him three years, there will be no pressure on your grades, as long as he can make people see confidence and hope.

This is also a reflection of Ye Qiu's understanding of the ball, because after the double championship last season, Tottenham Hotspur continued to maintain its peak level this season. According to the ups and downs, it is likely to usher in a comprehensive trough when Mauro Tassoti takes over. At that time, Mauro Tassoti needs to make some adjustments or even reforms.

Although Lewandowski stole a goal from Tottenham Hotspur, the overall situation was not reversed.

Tottenham Hotspur's defense only made that mistake, and then Dortmund's offense was always frozen well. After 75 minutes, Dortmund's physical fitness began to decline sharply, Tottenham Hotspur made its own offensive and counterattack.

Marcelo cut inward once, received a back knock from Ribery, and passed the penalty area diagonally. Messi rushed into the penalty area, stopped the ball and drifted past Hummels, and scored with his left foot.

This goal also completely sentenced Dortmund to death. Tottenham Hotspur completely knocked the Hornets down with his powerful and arrogant attack power away, and Ye Qiu's team basically advanced to the finals ahead of schedule.

Unless there is a big defeat at White Hart Lane Stadium, the possibility is slim.

After the game, Klopp had to admit with a frustration that the team did not show a satisfactory state at his home court. Except for the 20 minutes of the second half, the entire game was basically firmly controlled by Tottenham Hotspur. Before the game, Gotze, who announced that he would start the termination fee to Bayern Munich, was almost completely invisible.

Faced with the reporter's inquiry, Klopp was also concerned about his concerns and did not want to talk about Gotze's job change.

Ye Qiu was kind enough to say that Dortmund was very tenacious in the game and gave Klopp some compliments. When the reporter asked about Lewandowski's goal, Ye Qiu said very directly that this goal was eye-catching and a very outstanding offensive player.

"I will consider contacting Dortmund through the club after returning to London." Ye Qiu answered the reporter's question about whether Lewandowski has the strength to play for Tottenham Hotspur.

So after this game, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Dortmund away and became the front-page headlines of major news, which almost means that Tottenham Hotspur has entered the finals, and this will be Tottenham Hotspur's second consecutive season to reach the Champions League final. Many people even believe that Tottenham Hotspur is likely to defend its title again.

"In the past few years, the Premier League has entered the Tottenham Hotspur era, and now, we have to admit that in the past few years, European football has also entered the Tottenham Hotspur era without realizing it."

The German media even gave high praise to Tottenham's outstanding performance, believing that Dortmund's crushing defeat at home was due to the team's lack of strength and Klopp's lack of positional combat ability was magnified, and Tottenham won the game in a smarter way.

The British media are cheering that their teams have a great hope of reaching the Champions League final again. The Guardian has published exclusive inside information, revealing that in the past two or three years, with the close economic exchanges between the UK and China, especially more and more Chinese capital entering the UK to invest, last year British Prime Minister Cameron was under pressure from China and refused to receive DL Lama.

This time the Chinese Prime Minister will visit Europe in May. Downing Street people revealed that if Tottenham Hotspur reaches the Champions League final, British Prime Minister Cameron will invite the Chinese Prime Minister to visit Germany to attend the Champions League final held at the Wembley Stadium in London, and launch football diplomacy for London to become the first offshore RMB center in Europe.

After the Olympics, although the recovery momentum of London's financial district is obvious, if there is no strong stimulus from the outside world, this momentum may be difficult to last. Therefore, if we can strive to become a settlement center for the RMB, it will undoubtedly bring strong stimulation to the London and the UK financial industries.

London also faces considerable challenges in this competition, especially Frankfurt, Germany, which is undoubtedly London's biggest competitor. So after Tottenham Hotspur beat Dortmund, Cameron joked on his PK that China helped us IKO Germany.

But with the typical British urinary nature, once the media disclosed it, a few so-called loyalists would immediately stand up and oppose it, believing that all British people should not support Tottenham Hotspur, because it has become a Chinese team, and they even called for opposing Chinese capital invasion because the Chinese are acquiring the UK.

If such appeals had been a few years ago, it might have caused some discussion in the media, but in the current situation, except for some diehards with strong populist sentiment, no one cares what they said, because they all know that the current flag of the Premier League in the Champions League is supported by Tottenham Hotspur.

What's more, Tottenham Hotspur also lost their most hated arch-rival Germany team in the Champions League semi-finals.

As proud British people who have lived under the afterglow of the sun for a long time, they can never admit that Tottenham belongs to the Chinese, but will only say that this is a perfect cooperation between Britain and China.

Tottenham Hotspur is also very good. After returning to London from Dortmund, he soon went to challenge Wigan Athletic away.

As a result, although Tottenham Hotspur rotated extensively, Neymar took advantage of a corner kick to assist Nesta in the first record in just one minute of the game. In the seventeenth minute, Drogba returned, Phil Jones inserted a long shot and pierced through the goal of Wigan Athletic again.

Entering the second half with a 0 lead, but Tottenham's offensive did not weaken at all. Eriksen made a precise pass in the 54th minute, assisting Drogba to win another goal, 0

But just five minutes later, Hazard made a cross after breaking through, Drogba scored a point in the penalty area, 40

After winning consecutive goals, Ye Qiu also made substitution adjustments. The young player Januzai came on the bench and replaced veteran Drogba. The team became a trident composed of three small players. But in the 74th minute, Januzai made a wonderful pass after an imaginative continuous breakthrough on the left. Neymar shot in the penalty area.

Then Neymar turned around and broke through after receiving the ball at the front of the penalty area, and was tripped by the central defender of Wigan Athletics in the penalty area. The referee awarded a red card and added a penalty. Neymar gave the free throw to Hazard, and the Belgian hit a penalty.

The crazy goals made Tottenham Hotspur feel extremely excited, especially the Tottenham Hotspur fans, who seemed to see signs that the team had already won the league championship ahead of schedule.

In fact, Manchester United is indeed not very good in this game. They tied Arsenal with 1 away. Former Tottenham Hotspur center Van Persie saved a draw for Manchester United, but Liverpool defeated Newcastle 0 away and successfully overtook Manchester United and won the second place in the league standings.

As a result, Tottenham Hotspur's lead further expanded to seven points, leading Manchester United, which was as high as eight points.

In other words, as long as Tottenham Hotspur wins any of the remaining three Premier League games, it will be enough to ensure the team wins the championship. One of these three games is Southampton, which is known as the brother of Tottenham Hotspur.

So after Manchester United tied with Arsenal away, Ferguson said with a frustration that the Premier League championship this season has lost its suspense, and Tottenham Hotspur will win the fifth consecutive Premier League championship and complete the five consecutive Premier League championships.

After Liverpool played Newcastle, although Benitez repeatedly emphasized that there is still a chance and the league is not over yet, he actually has to admit that Tottenham Hotspur has occupied a more powerful position on the road to winning the championship.

"We lost points in some unnecessary games, and Tottenham Hotspur is more experienced and has a stronger desire to win, so they seized more opportunities, which is the biggest guarantee for them to win the standings."
