Chapter 312 Reform of Tottenham

Thinking about it carefully, Ji Ya has theoretically used his victory to send away Boas twice...

The first time was the 10-11 season. In that season, Ji Ya created the feat of leading the British Championship team to win the Europa League. In the final, he defeated Porto of Villas-Boas. After that season, Villas-Boas became Chelsea's main player Even though the coach left on his own initiative, he was sent away by Ji Ya.

After that, he came to Tottenham. Last season, he coached Tottenham for a full season. His results were not bad. After that, Tottenham also used Bell's transfer fee to buy a group of outstanding players such as Lamela and Eriksson, hoping to perform better.

However, the poor performance so far has basically made Levi lose confidence, and the game against Southampton has become his life and death battle.

In fact, Boas himself knows that even if he wins this game, he is just lingering. Tottenham have lost confidence in him. The results, otherwise there will be no chance.

When he saw Ji Ya, Boas also felt very strange. In fact, the previous two times were not regarded as Ji Ya really sent him away, but it happened that the last game of his two resignations was against Ji Ya.

And this time again.

So Boas doesn't know what to say. He has reasons to hate Ji Ya, but reason tells him that Ji Ya is not his enemy, but he really can't do it if he wants to talk and laugh with Ji Ya...

So I can only shake hands normally, then turn around and leave.

Ji Ya didn't want to irritate him with words either, looking at Boas's back, he let out a long sigh, then turned and returned to his position.

His long sigh almost broke Boas's defense again, and he wanted to turn around and ask him how much he sighed!

In this game, Boas sent a four-four-two lineup, goalkeeper Lloris, two full-backs Walker and Danny Rose, central defender Michael Dawson partnered with Chiliche, midfielder Eriksson and Dembele is in the center, with Lamela and Sigurdson on the wings, and a pair of high center forwards, Adebayor and Soldado.

To say that this lineup is really not bad, Tottenham is also a top-ranked team, and it is in London, with a high income. Even if Levi is stingy, as long as their operations are normal, their attractiveness is not bad.

Ji Ya also dispatched all the main players. Southampton fans are not as optimistic as him. After all, Southampton has lost three games before, and the main players seem to be in a bad state. adjusted.

However, in Ji Ya's view, this is not a problem. The previous poor state is not so much a problem with the team, it is better to say that the main players are automatically adjusting their state, and their performance during that period of time is not particularly important. Almost, in this case, they may perform better in the next second half of the game.

Of course, it remains to be seen whether their adjustments have any effect.

After the start of the game, Southampton began to gradually advance their offense at home. Under the leadership of De Bruyne, they continued to pass in the midfield, looking for opportunities to attack.

Dembele is still the main midfielder of Tottenham. After he transferred to Tottenham, he performed very well.

But looking at Southampton's midfielder, Dembele couldn't help but sigh.

When he was still there, the midfield composed of him, Matuidi and Vidal was the toughest midfielder in the Premier League, running, confrontation...that was the top.

Then he went to Tottenham for 500 million pounds, Vidal went to Juventus for 500 million pounds, Matuidi went to Chelsea for 3000 million pounds, and the three exchanged exactly 9000 million pounds.

However, considering the value of bringing them in, the sum does not exceed 3000 million pounds, so we have to say that Ji Ya is really good at doing business.

Another difference from when Dembele was there is that Southampton's midfield is not the same now.

In the past, Southampton's three midfielders were more active in the middle, and they went to the wing to defend and fill up. In the center, Mkhitaryan on the left and De Bruyne on the right, can be regarded as a horizontal midfielder.

But in terms of running and offensive flexibility, this midfielder is even more threatening.

De Bruyne took the ball close to the right, and Dembele had to go to defend him. Seeing Dembele coming, De Bruyne immediately lifted his foot and passed the ball to Mkhita, who was close to the left side of the penalty area. good.

Mkhitaryan received the ball and turned around. At this time, Ronaldo moved towards the penalty area, attracting the attention of the opponent's defender. Seeing that no one came up to defend him for the time being, Mkhitaryan made a slight adjustment and shot vigorously with his left foot!

The ball stuck to the ground and flew directly into the lower right corner of the goal like a poisonous snake!Although Lloris stretched his arms, he was still a little short, and the ball flew into the goal quickly!

The Southampton fans in the stands jumped up at the same time. Amidst the cheers, Mkhitaryan ran to the sidelines and gave his teammates high-fives to celebrate. Now he is the oldest player on the field. Te came half a year earlier, but the relatively low-key Armenian has always had a lack of presence in the locker room. Only when he scored a goal did he look so dazzling.

Ji Ya waved his fist. This long-range shot looks like Mkhitaryan's condition has recovered well. After all, such a long-range shot requires a certain amount of luck to make it, and he almost couldn't make it in his state.

Being hit by Southampton early, Tottenham were a little sluggish. After all, they had just been defeated by Liverpool. Liverpool's offensive rhythm made them breathless. In this game, Southampton's The offense seems to have this rhythm too!

Actually it is.

After taking the lead, Southampton did not shrink, but continued to press in the midfield, and then continued to attack.

Compared with the tactics used by Tottenham before, this season they began to pay more attention to ball control and advancement. This is actually what Villas-Boas can see. In the past, they used to play and run because they had a bunch of fast players, such as Bale. , Lennon, Defoe, Walker, but now?Both Bell and Lennon left, Defoe was reduced to a substitute, and Walker was still a full-back. Under such circumstances, how could they run and run.

And now there is no shortage of centers and technical players, especially with Lamela and Eriksson in the midfield, which is more suitable for ball-handling offense.

However, his reforms are contrary to Tottenham's tactics in the past four or five years. In this way, the effect of the reforms has not yet come out, but the performance of itself has not, and the team's performance will of course decline.
