Chapter 325 Boss, this smells wrong!(1/3)
"Chelsea starts making substitutions!"
"Pan Yi is going to replace three people at once."
"They are the two wingers Bernardo Silva, Hazard, and Matic."
"Just replace three people, will this be a reappearance of the desperate play against Crystal Palace in the last game?"
"Oh, no. This is a complete substitution. The ones running off the field now are Oscar, Willian and Mikel."
"The fans at the scene even seemed a little disappointed. Maybe it's because this script didn't seem as exciting as the last game..."
——
There is certainly a reason why Pan Yi did not choose such an "exciting" adjustment method.
After all, this game is different from the one against Crystal Palace.
At that time, all members of the Crystal Palace retreated to defense and had no ability to counterattack at all. Only then did Pan Yi dare to press everyone up.
And Roma always maintains a counterattack threat against Chelsea!
Wolf King Totti is really no joke.
In addition, Roma's overall strength is stronger than Crystal Palace, especially in the midfield, Nainggolan, De Rossi, and Thiago Motta are all good at offense and defense, and can complete Roma's transition from attack to offense very well.
Defense, or the transition from defense to offense.
"And Bernardo Silva, Matic, who Pan Yi replaced, and of course Hazard who scored a beautiful goal, all played an extremely important role!"
Moreover, both of them are very fast, have strong personal abilities, and are very threatening one-on-one. Not only can they be at the front and in the middle, but they can also pull back to the side, and then cut in from the side to create threats.
He planned to wait until the ball was dead, then take the opportunity to communicate with Rudy Garcia, report the situation to the head coach, and see if there was any way to break the game.
As the game lasted for nearly 80 minutes, De Rossi, as the hub of Roma's midfield transition between offense and defense, consumed a lot of energy, which further aggravated the problem.
In just an instant, bursts of crazy, thunderous shouts poured down from the stands.
Whether it's Hazard, Seat B, Cancelo, or Azpilicueta, they always seem to be swaying in front of him, but they are not in a hurry to steal his ball.
This is the role of players on the field to speak and respond to each other.
After all, he has good passing ability and a unique long-range shot. His scoring ability is actually quite strong.
De Rossi suddenly had an ominous premonition.
He has been moving from the winger position to the center during this period, but he was clearly standing next to Motta just now, why did he suddenly rush to De Rossi's side!
After all, if Roma's full-backs could press along the wings, then Chelsea's wingers and wing-backs would not be as unscrupulous as they are now, walking towards the center to pressure Roma's central defense.
They do not have the excellent ability to attack forward like Chelsea's two wing-backs, which makes it more difficult to counter Chelsea's strategy.
As a player on the field and the core of Roma's midfield, De Rossi immediately felt the changes in Chelsea's offensive and defensive methods after the substitution.
If someone can notice all the movements on the field in an instant, he will often be praised by the word "God's Perspective".
Then.
Pan Yi is going to tear apart Roma's entire formation!
As Roma's deputy for many years and as a midfield commander, De Rossi also has a keen sense of changes in the situation on the field.
All Chelsea fans were watching Hazard's performance with bated breath.
Needless to say, Hazard came on as a substitute. The current ace player in Chelsea's team is unique in terms of his ability to break through with the ball, support from the wing, and play in the middle;
I saw him leaning back, and before Manolas came over, Skorupski, who was abandoning the goal and attacking, gave him a gentle poke with his toe!
The ball rolled quickly under Skorupski's step and into the goal behind him!
“GOOOOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!”
As soon as he thought about this, De Rossi looked towards the sidelines.
Now that all substitutions have been completed, all the cards in Pan Yi's hand have been played, including the details of the tactical change. Pan Yi also ordered the three substitute players to bring them to the court.
The most important feature is that Chelsea's two wingers now not only hug the wings to break through, but also often wander to the center of the ribs to provide support.
Douglas quickly added a secret pull on the jersey.
Moreover, opportunities are fleeting on the football field. As long as you delay a little, even if it is just a few tenths of a second, there is still a chance to make amends.
At this moment, Douglas was almost stunned!
Fast, so fast!
But Douglas reacted immediately.
On the contrary, the opponent's two wingers seem to appear more often in the half-space and never return to the wings.
The so-called "body cannot keep up with consciousness" is pretty much what it means.
In addition, he has a good attitude towards the game and active running, which can also help a lot on defense.
But he must also make adjustments, otherwise De Rossi may be overwhelmed.
On the other side, center back Douglas, who was trailing behind Roma's entire front line, also quickly chased the ball.
"This ball is so beautiful, it's unbelievable!"
And Hazard during this period is actually not much worse than Messi.
His consciousness and vision are still outstanding, but the frequency of his feet is indeed much slower than when he was young.
Playing football on the field is not like playing a game of fifia. After all, everyone's field of vision is limited, and the situation behind and to the side often cannot be taken care of.
But in mobile warfare, it is often difficult to achieve perfect spacing.
Countless fans were chanting Hazard's name in unison, and many were even dancing with excitement.
His powerful running ability allows him to cover the entire midfield and backfield. In addition, his strong physical condition also allows De Rossi to have strong aerial confrontation ability and bayonet fighting ability.
Replacing Matic with Mikel is purely from the perspective of strengthening the offense.
"Oops, they have planned this for a long time!"
This is a tribute to Argentinian legend Riquelme, who made a similar celebration many years ago when he was playing for Boca Juniors.
Of course, De Rossi can still move forward to participate in the attack when needed.
He felt more and more like a lonely boat floating in the sea, completely isolated from the world.
At this time, Chelsea's two wing-backs will be positioned further forward to make up for the wide attack gap behind the top winger.
Although he was originally played as a winger, he is a player who can play any position in the midfield. Let him roam on the wing and in the middle, especially to break the connection between Roma's ribs, and he is the best candidate.
Rudy Garcia can accept a draw, but will Pan Yi?
In this case, once the opponent's full-backs move forward, with the cooperation of these two wingers, and the support of center Lukaku, it will be difficult for our own two full-backs to defend them, so we must strengthen them appropriately.
Wing defense.
Now all Chelsea's opponents will have this thought when they see Pan Yi's substitution, and De Rossi is no exception.
My head coach is quite capable.
"This seems to have been carefully rehearsed. Every process is extremely meticulous and there is no sloppiness!"
Find the ball release point as soon as possible and then pass the ball out. This is what De Rossi should do most.
The entire Stamford Bridge stadium became a sea of joy, but the joy did not belong to the Romans.
Mikel is strong, has excellent ball control, and has good distribution and direct passes, but compared to Matic, his ability to see the overall situation and read the game is still slightly inferior.
That is to say, in addition to the two full-backs and two full-backs who are originally responsible for defending the wings, the two midfielders also join in to help defend, so as to ensure nothing goes wrong.
That’s not right! Boss, this tastes wrong!
Something must have gone wrong!
It was a draw one to one, and both sides were back on the same starting line.
It is to ensure that when the ball is kicked, the distance between the supporting foot and the power foot is just right, so that the ball can be kicked with the most angle and power.
"Be careful on both sides! Nainggolan, Motta, you must protect the two sides and don't let them pass easily!"
Roma's defenders did not react quickly enough. Both Mbiwa and Manolas turned around and chased back at the same time.
Especially now that more long direct passes are needed to penetrate Roma's midfield and backfield defenses, Matic is undoubtedly the better choice.
After holding it in for more than an hour, I finally scored!
He’s not called King of Balls for nothing!
But the problem is that now his jersey has been pulled, and he has stalled a bit, and even lost his stability. It is a bit difficult to catch up with the ball.
Therefore, Pan Yi's idea is to have several players with stronger running ability and stronger assault ability intersperse back and forth from the winger to the midfielder's rib position to cut off the connection between the Roma midfielder and the wing, including the striker.
Chelsea's wing attack didn't seem to be as fierce as expected.
This is also an essential skill for an experienced defender.
Moreover, the King of Balls is in excellent form now. Replacing him on the field will definitely cause a huge change in the situation on the field.
"Chelsea who are lagging behind are also not easy to mess with, and Chelsea after Pan Yi's substitution is even more difficult to mess with!"
