Chapter 379 Meticulous Inventory

Facts have proved that Southampton's performance is not so good.

The absence of others may not have a huge impact, but the impact of De Bruyne's absence is too great.

In the first half of the game, Southampton was miserably suppressed by the opponent in the midfield. After all, Wilshere, who has not yet declined, is a rare organizational England midfielder, plus the level of Ramsey and Arteta They are all quite good, so in the midfield confrontation, Southampton is very rarely at a disadvantage.

Ramsey performed very well in this game, he can be said to be able to attack and defend well, and Arsenal's midfielders also performed very well. Except for the three players in the middle, Cazorla also performed very well. Sanchez seems to be still adapting, sometimes dissociated from the overall lineup.

In the No.201 minute of the first half, after receiving a pass from Ramsey, Cazorla took a shot from the top of the penalty area. The ball circled a wonderful arc and flew in front of Romero's outstretched hand. Goal.

After falling behind zero to one in the first half, Ji Ya changed a lot of players during the intermission. The goalkeeper was replaced by Gulac, and the midfielders Matic and Prouse replaced Casemiro and Schneider. Lin, the striker did not change.

Wenger also changed three people, Monreal replaced Koscielny, Chamberlain replaced Sanchez, and Giroud replaced Sanogo.

After the substitution, Southampton's tactics changed again. They began to concentrate a large number of balls at Prowse's feet and let him organize the offense.

With the protection of Matic behind him and the running of Coutinho in front of him, Prouse began to show his core midfielder ability in Leicester City.

He is a player who needs to play the core of the midfield. He runs a lot, has a strong ability to go up and down, can hold and distribute the ball, and has a good forward ability. He is a relatively standard central midfielder.

Perhaps because it was unexpected that Ji Ya would let Prowse, who is said to be the least famous midfielder, be the core of the midfield playmaker, Arsenal began to be a little passive in the second half.

Five minutes after the start of the second half, it was Prowse who passed the ball to Mane who advanced forward. Mane dribbled the ball diagonally into the penalty area, shot decisively, and scored the ball into the dead corner of the goal!

This goal is certainly a manifestation of Mane's personal ability, but Prouse's timely distribution of the ball is also a key!

Only 5 minutes later, Lukaku forcibly broke through the opponent's defense after receiving a long pass from Prouss. After breaking into the penalty area, he made a cross. Compared with one, Southampton completed the overtake.

Back to their senses, Arsenal began to focus on Mark Prowse. At this time, the gap between Prowse and De Bruyne was clearly reflected-De Bruyne was able to take it well no matter how his opponent marked him. The ball, and then organize the offense, will not be greatly affected, but Prowse's organizational ability has been greatly affected after being marked by the opponent.

After gradually stabilizing their defense, Arsenal equalized in the No. 70 minute. Giroud grabbed the first spot in the penalty area and ferried down. Ramsey followed up and shot directly without stopping the ball. Entering the lower left corner of the goal, although Gulacci made a save, he was still a step too late.

The two sides then fell into a stalemate. Arsenal replaced Rosicky, Flamini and others successively, and Kiya also let Klose, Otamendi, Cancelo and others play, but Arsenal finally won. In the victory, Giroud suddenly took a long shot after receiving a cross from Ramsey outside the penalty area. The shot was quite sudden and wonderful. Although Larch made a saving action, he still failed to save the ball!

Three to two, Arsenal defeated Southampton and won the Community Shield!

Regarding this result, the Arsenal fans were very excited to celebrate, while the Southampton fans were a little unhappy, but they didn't say much. After all, in their view, this game was just a game with a relatively high scale. It's just a warm-up.

Didn't you see that Ji Ya used all seven substitutions?

"The central defender combination of Rudiger and Bailly is still not very good. The two have a tacit understanding, but they are both excellent in physical confrontation and lack experience. At this stage, it is difficult for them to replace the combination of Fonte and Otamendi."

"Prowse needs to attack around him if he is on the court, but he is not capable enough to face the top teams. It is suggested that he can be used to play against weak teams and gradually train him."

"Mane is excellent, but Perisic is also good. The two have completely different characteristics and can be used together."

"Valdy is in good form. He can be a main striker instead of a substitute. The three strikers can take turns and arrange according to the opponent."

"Cancelo and Alonso are both players with obvious shortcomings and advantages, so someone must help them protect them."

"Coutinho needs a better personal touch to play at his level."

What the outside world doesn't know is that after the game, Southampton's coaching staff immediately made a meticulous and rigorous judgment. In the new season, there are many new players and new tailor-made tactics are needed. It is necessary to work.

"Our players are all players with outstanding strengths, but also have many weaknesses." Benelli sighed.

"It's okay, I'm good at using this kind of players." Ji Ya laughed.

The members of the coaching staff also laughed. This is true. The reason why Southampton's players have been mixed after they are sold is because there are many players with such obvious characteristics and outstanding shortcomings. If you use a lot, it is easy to appear high-priced and low-quality.

However, Southampton also has many players who performed well after the transfer, such as Matuidi, William, Vidal...

Some perform well, and some perform mediocrely. This is the key to other giants still wanting to buy Southampton players.

"Okay, next we are going to prepare for the UEFA Super Cup... It's different from the Community Shield. We lost the UEFA Super Cup last season. We will get it back this season!" Ji Ya waved it fist.

The coaches also waved their fists in response. So far, Southampton has participated in three Super Cups, and won the first two. Last season, they lost to Bayern in a penalty shootout. That game was also very dangerous. Southampton was very unconvinced. They had a chance to complete the feat of three consecutive European Super Cups.

So they cherish this opportunity to participate in the European Super Cup even more.

"We did not participate in the Europa League, so Serbia won the Europa League. This time, let us prove that we are too lazy to win the Europa League." Ji Ya finally said.

These words seem very arrogant, but they are also very refreshing!
