Chapter 1300 Prince of Manchester City
Two goals behind made the already not very friendly form of Manchester City even more brutal.
For Manchester City, they urgently need some changes in the midfield.
Or play more aggressively.
Whether it is De Bruyne or David Silva, neither of them has that kind of hard work, or that kind of straight forward ability.
Simple advancement is sometimes not a bad thing. Compared with tediousness, Manchester City today needs this kind of change.
For this reason, Guardiola chose to make a substitution at 32 minutes.
This is a last resort. If there is no substitution, the game may really be over.
32 minutes.
Manchester City make a substitution.
David Silva goes off, Foden comes on.
The prince of Manchester City has almost the same status as Wilshere in Arsenal.
And compared to David Silva, Foden is younger and has a more intense sense of fighting in the midfield.
Fans who have watched Foden's game know very well that this guy is really running all over the court, and that hard work will give Manchester City a great midfield bonus.
For this reason, Guardiola just wants to use Foden's attributes to curb Arsenal's offense.
Foden was injured and played in danger. This young man with a slightly shy appearance and a short pot head ran onto the court with a solemn expression.
"Manchester City made a substitution, and Foden came off the bench. Last season, Foden played well. As a young player, he didn't want to be timid like other young players in the game, but showed it very boldly. For himself, his hard work in the game is also obvious to all of us."
"We look forward to him being able to solve Arsenal's problem in midfield!"
Soon, the focus of the game began.
City kicked off for the third time in the first half.
At the beginning of the game, Manchester City encountered a fierce press from Arsenal and was intercepted by Kanter in the frontcourt.
Arsenal have the ball again.
Kanter wanted to slow down the rhythm a little bit, and pass it out when the opponent pressed.
But when he controlled the ball with his second foot, a figure had already stuck to him.
"Foden! Directly entangled Kante and had a fierce confrontation!"
Under the camera, Foden violently pushed Kanter from behind, which made it difficult for Kanter to play the ball.
At the same time, Foden is also looking for opportunities to press.
He hit Kanter again and again, trying to steal from every angle.
But Kanter guarded the ball tightly and finally passed the ball to Jimenez.
But Foden did not give up, rushed to Jimenez again and continued to press.
Jimenez also moved in a hurry, and Foden continued to chase.
"After Foden came on the scene, his pressing in the frontcourt became more intense, but for a young player, he should have this kind of hard work!"
Arsenal is conducting, and Foden is still pressing.
When the ball came to Lucky's feet, a two-team was formed instantly.
Foden and Bernardo Silva launched a press from both sides, but Lucky's reaction was also quick, and he quickly poked the ball out with his toes.
And when the three collided, the ball had already passed.
boom!
The two slammed on Le Kai fiercely, hitting Le Kai so painfully.
Especially when Lucky's elbows hit Foden's stomach, usually in such a situation he would scream and wail.
But Foden didn't say a word, turned his head and continued to chase the ball.
"Is this guy made of iron?" Lucy asked in amazement.
On the other hand, Bernardo Silva on the ground grinned and shook his head slightly.
He knows that Foden is such a player, and his current appearance is not much different from his usual training games.
This guy could easily be a shit mess in the frontcourt.
Sometimes you can disturb yourself, and sometimes you can disturb the other party's peace.
And now based on Foden's active pressing, Arsenal's midfield rhythm is also somewhat difficult to maintain.
Manchester City's form began to improve a little.
Soon after Arsenal was forced to move forward, Manchester City successfully completed the press.
After Debrane took the ball, he passed the ball directly to Foden.
Foden took the ball with his back, and there was Kanter's restriction behind him.
Generally speaking, this situation should be transferred, and Kanter thinks so, so he focuses on the interception prediction on both sides.
But Foden stepped on small steps, stepped on the ball, pulled it behind him, and turned around directly.
The two collided, and Foden began to push Kanter desperately, but wiped it from one side.
"Foden!! Get rid of it!"
Andy Gray shouted loudly.
After Foden finished getting rid of it, he immediately moved forward. Manchester City also started to move forward a lot based on Foden's getting rid of.
In an instant, the form of Manchester City's attack became different.
However, when approaching the penalty area, Foden did not pass the ball and directly tried a long shot.
Slashing with one foot sticking to the ground was very powerful, but the strike was too straight.
Arsenal goalkeeper Martinez easily hugged the ball into his arms and threw himself down to prevent the opponent from pressing.
Although Manchester City failed to score a goal, for them, this counterattack still brought very good results.
Even Andy Gray nodded and said, "That's right! Manchester City needs this kind of straightforward and concise attack. In the case where complex transmission and penetration can't work, Manchester City must change their tactical intentions, and Foden becomes The key role here!"
It has to be said that this stunned guy caused an accident for Arsenal.
"My question, I didn't expect him to turn around directly!"
Kanter said a little depressed.
After all, after playing professionally for so many years, it is rare to meet such a stunned guy.
But I have to say that Arsenal really likes this set.
If you play a tactical game with me, Arsenal will not be afraid. Their defense is very stable and they can see their moves.
On the other hand, this kind of way of directly advancing violently gives Arsenal more threats.
"Steady the rhythm, keep the same tactics!"
Lucky reminded his teammates.
Foden has put a certain amount of pressure on Arsenal, but for them, compared to Foden, they cannot let De Bruyne go.
This is the potential greatest threat.
Once the focus on De Bruyne was shifted to Foden, it led to De Bruyne's liberation.
This will give Arsenal a greater threat.
To put it bluntly, Foden is a stupid way of playing. He can't drive the whole team to threaten Arsenal's goal. He is just one person.
But De Bruyne is different. This guy's passing and offensive organization ability can maximize the abilities of Manchester City players.
For this reason, even though Foden performed very well, Arsenal still will not shift their focus.
In the arena, Foden has become the main output point of Manchester City's offense.
His running in the frontcourt and his defensive pressing after retreating gave Manchester City a lot of support.
This guy is really good at running!
Not only can it run, but it is also very fast.
This caused some trouble for Arsenal.
The presence of Foden also made Manchester City's offense more threatening, with more corner kicks and set kicks.
"Guardiola's substitution played a very clear role, so you can't play the rhythm grabbing game in the midfield with Arsenal. They are very good at it. Although Manchester City's midfield ability is equally strong, but in the overall situation and In the confrontation of rhythm, Arsenal still has the advantage!"
"For this reason, when Guardiola changed his tactics and made substitutions, Manchester City's offense became simple and effective because of Foden's existence!"
"It's just like Liverpool's way of playing. Among the entire Premier League teams, Liverpool is probably the team that can play Arsenal best!"
Although Liverpool failed to win Arsenal.
But many people believe that Liverpool is the only team capable of threatening Arsenal.
After watching the match between Arsenal and Liverpool, Arsenal faced the opponent's mad dog-like pressing and advancing.
After a period of patience, Arsenal will soon be affected by the rhythm of the opponent, and then start to counterattack frantically.
In this case, Liverpool can also get more opportunities to counterattack.
This game has some of that flavor.
Use Foden's attributes to interfere, to guide Arsenal's mentality, and let the opponent's self bring up the rhythm.
Arsenal have never been a good tempered team.
Their attitude in the game is very tough.
But based on this toughness, they will not give up in the game.
