Chapter 116 Adjustment
“yes! its_goooooal!!”
As Freddy Eastwood scored the football into the goal, huge cheers burst out from the stands. All the Forest supporters raised their arms and jumped out of their seats.
"This is the first Premier League goal that Nottingham Forest scored this season! The real first! Unexpectedly, it was Arsenal's goal! Beautiful counterattack, beautiful long pass! Albertini's fallen leaf ball!"
Freddy, who scored the goal, did not run to the sidelines and knew it with the fans, turned around and ran to the midfield, hugging their new captain Albertini tightly.
At least 85% of the credit for this ball is counted on Old Demi.
Seeing the ball enter the goal, Donn and Chris Lack both jumped out of their seats and rushed to the sidelines with their arms raised. He succeeded! His tactics succeeded!
"Nottingham Forest leads Arsenal at home, and it seems that this game is not a relaxing and pleasant record-breaking celebration for Wenger. Although Tony Donn said that he doesn't care whether the record twenty-five years ago will be broken, he doesn't want to lose either."
After cheering for Eastwood, the Forest fans began to sing the hymns made up for Albertini again: "We have an Italian with curly hair and messy hair! Don't look at him, he will not end well if he is thirty-two. If he is slapped, he will not end well if he is slapped!!"
As a player, winning the hearts of fans only requires a beautiful performance.
Albertini, who was surrounded by his teammates, couldn't understand what the fans were singing. It was too noisy and his ears were full of excitement. But there was one thing he was sure of - the choice to leave Italy and come to the UK seemed to be correct!
Surrounded by his teammates, he was placed with high hopes and heavy responsibilities. It felt great to be called by fans, it was so good... He seemed to be back in his years in AC Milan.
I, Albertini, are far from old!
Patres beside him covered his forehead, and the ball was thrown too suddenly.
Wenger turned his head to see Donn, who was celebrating the goal with his assistant on the sidelines, and then stood up. This guy couldn't drag the game into the rhythm of the Forest team, he had to shift the focus of Arsenal's offense to Borgkamp.
He stood on the sidelines, and Arsenal players turned their heads to look at him. They knew in their hearts that after losing a goal, the coach would definitely have the latest instructions.
Wenger made a gesture to Borgkamp, asking him to retreat appropriately and support Fabregas.
Borgkamp nodded.
Although the Dutchman is a striker and partnered with Henry, he is actually not bad at all when he organizes the midfield. He withdraws to organize the offense and can share the pressure of Fabregas and finds opportunities to take advantage of the loopholes left by Wood after he goes up.
Wenger's adjustment played a certain role. Borgkamp and Fabregas shared the responsibility of the offensive organization. At the same time, the Forest's defensive attention was also opened. Henry's position was relatively flexible, and he often pulled to the left to cooperate with Pire. In this way, the Forest's defense line had to follow Henry, after all, this Frenchman is the most threatening player for Arsenal.
Moreover, Arsenal's goal does not rely on a Frenchman Henry. Whether it is Pire, Borgkamp, or Pennant, even Gilberto and Ashley Cole, they all have the ability to score goals. They have many attack points, and any one has the ability to participate in the offense. The passing and running of two or three people can make the gaps needed.
When Henry successfully received the ball and then turned around and kicked the ball to the goal post, Done stood up from the coach's seat with a breath of breath in the city court.
He also saw that Arsenal handed over the heavy responsibility of offensive organization to Borgkamp, rather than Fabregas...
Since Wenger made changes, Donn also made his own response, and Wood's task remained unchanged. Continue to press Fabregas, and with him as the center, the Forest's formation was generally forward. The Forest, which led Arsenal, did not put away the defense like the turtle, but pushed the defense further forward.
Don N't give up on Arsenal's close siege. He knew very well that Arsenal's interests were the same as almost all technical teams. He could not give them any space or let them play with their own skills. Otherwise, the Forest team, which is a technically disadvantaged, would be dead end.
Borgkampra came back to focus on organization. Obviously, she wanted to use the space left after George Wood hit the ball. Since that's the case, we will use the whole to fill in the gap. The overall formation moved forward, continued to oppress Arsenal, and always took the initiative in the game in our own hands.
The formation is forward pressing and offside is a natural tactical choice. At the same time, Don En did not restrict the offense because he wanted to defend. On the contrary, he asked Ribery and Ashley Young to actively assist. Once the Forests get an offensive opportunity, both the wing forward and the full-back must resolutely step forward and suppress Arsenal's offensive power on the wing.
In addition, when attacking, use the most efficient way: when you can pass the ball out, you will never let the football stay under your feet for one more second. In the training, Tang En instilled the idea that opportunities and space are not brought out by dribbling the ball, but by running and passing the whole team. This is the future offensive direction of the Forest team: create opportunities in running and put people to death in running.
Don't always think about relying on personal strength to cross the opponent's five defensive players alone, and then hit the ball into the empty goal. They are facing Arsenal, not an amateur team.
Although there are Pennant and Pirey on the side of Arsenal, Donne does not think Ribery and Ashley Young will be much worse than these two people, especially Ribery. Donne even thinks Pennant is not as good as the French.
Unlike Arsenal coach Wenger's idea, Wenger believes that the current Forest team is not on the same level as Arsenal in terms of strength. But Donn believes that what the current Forest team lacks is not strength, but experience, and experience in the top league game, which is more important than anything else.
He met Arsenal in the first three rounds of the league and had to bite the bullet and fight this tough battle, but Don believed that this game could provide him and the entire team with the experience that could match five ordinary games.
Wenger soon noticed Tang En's changes, but he would not make any adjustments. In a sense, what the two sides are competing now is not the wisdom of the head coach, but the strength of the team.
Wenger admitted that this Don is much better than when he first met him. For the first time, Tony Don, the head coach of the youth team, would only use some wrong tricks to deal with Arsenal. Now he can compete with himself in tactical terms...
Looking at George Wood's active figure on the court, Wenger thought that maybe he should have made efforts to dig up the young man... Although Wenger himself does not like young people who are rough and can only play football with his body, he must admit that No. 13 will become his own threat in the future.
The Forests' pressing continued, because it was their home court, and the referee's whistle was relatively loose. Several times it looked like a foul defensive move, but the referee did not say anything. So even if Wood arched Fabregas behind his back and poked the ball to Albertini, the Spanish young player sat on the ground and slapped the turf hard, he could not let the referee focus on him.
To be fair, it is not that Fabregas is not as capable as George Wood, but that the tactics formulated specifically for Arsenal are too consistent with Wood's characteristics, and it also greatly suppresses Fabregas' characteristics.
After watching the game for another ten minutes, Wenger shook his head at Patreth sitting next to him: "Donn has studied us very thoroughly, and we know very little about this forest team. The scene is too passive..."
Rice nodded in agreement: "I thought he had been quarreling with the media in the past four days."
"No, Pat. The things that the Forest team showed in this game are definitely not something that can be done in four days."
Pat was surprised to hear Wenger say this: "You mean..."
"That Tony Donn has regarded us as important opponents since he was promoted to the Super League." Wenger's tone was as normal, without any fluctuation. "Is it funny to see the defending champions as their main opponent?"
Pat didn't know what to say. Arthur had told him before that he should be careful of Tony Donn of the Forest team and asked him why he was careful, but the French did not tell the reason. Now he can understand more or less.
"No...what an ambitious newcomer..."
Wenger looked down at his watch, and the first half was approaching the end without realizing it.
Almost all the game time was snatched and was snatched. Arsenal's most proudest thing was as delicate and smooth as flowing, and as gorgeous and sexy as dancing as the offense was not played at all.
He no longer considers what adjustments to make before the end of the first half. The situation is no longer something that can be changed by just a few words on the sidelines.
Intermission is a great time.
OK, Don Eun, in the first half, you won...
Chapter completed!
