Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 354 Is Qin really that much pressure on people?
"Arsenal are gradually gaining the upper hand in transitions between attack and defense!"

"This is their most familiar rhythm, using passing and possession to create opportunities, while David Luiz's inconsistency makes Chelsea's tactics very unstable!"

"Dembele has already broken through his defense twice in a row!"

"here we go again!"

Dembele was known for his speed when he was at Borussia Dortmund, and he has been in the Premier League for three months now, and his physical strength has improved compared to before.

But the most important thing is the overall improvement of awareness within an excellent team.

Instead of getting bogged down with David Lewis and blindly pushing forward as he used to, he stopped abruptly and observed the situation.

really.

Qin Ming stayed close to his left.

Snap! He passed the ball with his left foot. Before receiving the ball, Qin Ming gave a thumbs up and caught a glimpse of Fabregas rushing towards him out of the corner of his eye.

He faced off against Fabregas for several seasons.

The two knew each other very well, but Fabregas knew Qin Ming better, because he had considered Qin Ming a potential rival since that summer two years ago.

Or perhaps it's some hidden desire to make things even worse for Arsenal.

This makes it seem like Wenger's refusal to let him return was a mistake.

But the reality was quite the opposite. After Qin Ming joined Arsenal, the expected maladjustment did not materialize; instead, he got into the rhythm of the Premier League.

Then came those horrifying records.

Fabregas carefully paced, observing Qin Ming's possible intention to break through.

Qin Ming didn't think that much about it.

His body swayed unconsciously, and Fabregas followed suit, moving in the opposite direction.

Simple movements, combined with explosive physical abilities, are like lightning.

With his still delicate and stable ball control even at high speed, Fabregas was fooled in the blink of an eye.

David Louis provided quick help defense.

However, he overlooked Dembele. Qin Ming flicked the ball with the outside of his foot, and Dembele received the ball and broke into the penalty area.

This time, he wasn't in a hurry when facing Courtois.

Morata, feigning a loud call for the ball, unexpectedly pushed forward with the instep of his foot.

The tall Courtois fell much slower than De Gea.

Therefore, when he felt a chill in his groin, the football had already crossed the goal line.

"Zero to one!"

"Arsenal scored in the 32nd minute!"

"The goal was scored by Dembele!"

"Conte's biggest mistake today was starting David Luiz. Against Arsenal, inconsistency is a fatal flaw because they are too good at seizing opportunities!"

"Pretty!"

Paul Dutton celebrates with a fist pump.

After scoring, Dembele ran towards the corner flag, followed closely by Morata, and Qin Ming also jogged over to celebrate.

The Arsenal players in the away stands cheered rhythmically.

Stamford Bridge was once a place they didn't want to come to or see.

Because this place holds too many of Arsenal's failures.

But now, Arsenal's former nemesis, Mourinho and Chelsea, are gone.

The Blues players, on the other hand, had long faces.

It has only been two years since they last won the Premier League title.

It seems very short.

However, they felt that each day was an eternity.

Last season, they clearly had a chance, but they encountered an unreasonable Arsenal.

Will this season repeat the same mistake?
Nobody wants to see their city rivals dominate the Premier League.

On the sidelines, Wenger opened his thermos and took a sip of water; it was chilly in London in October.

He has also been staying up late recently to adjust tactics.

So I'm a bit weak. Luckily I keep exercising regularly, otherwise, at over sixty years old, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to work for many more years.

"I feel Chelsea will need to make a substitution and take that center-back off."

Pat Rice said confidently.

He noticed that Conte next to him looked unhappy and said a few words to Rüdiger on the bench, who then went to warm up.

"Tell the team members to be careful."

Wenger was well aware of Rüdiger's playing style, which was practically ingrained in his very being.

"I have great confidence in Qin."

Pat Rice smiled slyly.

Others might not know what kind of person Qin Ming is, but how could he not know?
Violence must be repaid!

Moreover, his elbow strike technique is really strong; he might even be able to rival himself from the last century.

However, it's important to know that the rules of football in the last century were not so perfect.

It's quite possible that people could start fighting while playing; he himself has been involved in brawls with Manchester United.

Who was it that I elbowed?

Pat Rice couldn't remember and looked back at the field.

Trailing, Chelsea tightened their defense, and after a dead ball situation, Rudiger replaced David Luiz.

Qin Ming noticed that emotional gaze.

He lifted his right foot and stomped heavily on the grass, leaving a visible dent.

In pursuit of lightweight design, his shoe spikes are not made of steel, but of synthetic materials, which are both hard and light, yet still painful to step on.

Rüdiger felt a sharp pain in his ribs for no apparent reason.

"Rüdiger definitely had an easier time defending against Dembele!"

"What is this high leg raise?"

"Is Arsenal going to change their attacking focus? But Azpilicueta on the other side is Chelsea's most reliable player!"

Paul Dutton almost couldn't hold back and criticized Rudiger.

In the 38th minute of the match, Fabregas received the ball in midfield and risked a through pass forward, trying to find Hazard who was in a deeper position.

The ball did indeed go over Arsenal's two defensive midfielders.

But the moment Hazard received the ball, Kanté had already turned and closed in, and the two began a grappling battle.

Hazard accelerated from a standstill, twisting his right leg to try and knock down the chasing antler.

boom!
But the pain in the back of his thigh made him collapse to the ground instantly.

"I've said before that his escape techniques are prone to injury. If his hamstring muscles aren't well-developed, he's easily injured during physical contact."

Qin Ming reminded Dembele.

"I want to learn, but I can't."

Dembele knows himself quite well; he's taller than Hazard and more prone to injury.

If you really go to defend other players.

That would probably fail very quickly, and it wouldn't even succeed a few times.

Hazard was eventually stretchered off, and Conte had no choice but to bring Pedro on. Using up two substitutions before the first half was over made the Chelsea players feel anxious.

They must equalize the score as soon as possible.

Otherwise, Arsenal could make multiple adjustments later in the game.

"Dembele falls to the ground during a scuffle with Rüdiger!"

"Rüdiger seems to have an additional side effect; his reputation in the Bundesliga and Serie A isn't very good."

"Hey! Qin went up to receive the ball from out of bounds, but Rüdiger has fallen down!"

"Let's take a look at the replay! He raised his arms to maintain his balance, but accidentally swung them backward and hit Rüdiger in the nose."

Paul Dutton rubbed his nose.

He imagined that feeling would be incredibly intense. After landing, Qin Ming didn't turn back, accepted the referee's warning, and slowly walked back.

Dembele was still standing there, stunned.

It was truly the first time he had witnessed Qin Ming elbowing another player from a first-person perspective.

The movements were so practiced, as if they had been done countless times.

Naturally.

“Osman, if you don’t want to be bullied, you have to learn to fight back.”

Qin Ming waved his hand, "Being a silent striker isn't a good thing."

Dembele nodded, agreeing that it made sense.

The first half ended quickly, with Arsenal returning to the locker room with a one-goal lead. During halftime, the manager didn't say much; instead, the players reviewed the game.

Moreover, since the team played quite well for the first 45 minutes, there was no need to panic and make any adjustments first.

After all, sometimes this can have the opposite effect.

Qin Ming stared at the tactics board in deep thought. After Hazard's injury, Chelsea's attacking intensity relied more on Giroud.

Giroud is alright as a supporting character, but not quite good enough as a lead.

“We can focus more on the midfield in the second half, Ngolo, I will support you on your left front.”

Qin Ming was targeted a lot by Fabregas in the first half.

He felt that Bakayoko on the other side was easier to deal with, and Willian's attack was a bit too aggressive, so it was necessary to curb it and save Kanté's energy.

"it is good!"

Kanter nodded.

Morata then pulled Dembele aside to teach him how to counter Rüdiger.

When he was at Juventus, he faced off against Rudiger. There were quite a few seasoned veterans in the Juventus team at that time, and they taught him how to use some dirty tricks by example.

He gradually learned how to do it.

After the second half of the game begins.

Conte's brow, which had just relaxed on the sidelines, furrowed again. The chain reaction caused by Arsenal's shift in attacking focus was bigger than he had imagined.

Bakayoko was no match for Qin Ming's onslaught.

As a result, Azpilicueta and Moses were also implicated.

"Monreal makes an overlapping run to receive a pass from Sanchez!"

"Go down to Morata!"

"A close-range header!"

Paul Dutton exclaimed in surprise.

Courtois parried the ball, which hit the underside of the crossbar and bounced back into the penalty area.

In chaos.

When Gary Cahill and Rudiger were both desperately trying to get out of the situation.

Swish!
A ghost-like figure suddenly darted out and forcefully shoved the ball into the goal.

After rolling around a few times to dissipate the force, Qin Ming looked up and saw the football go into the net.

He stood up and ran towards the away stands, making a "six" gesture towards the Arsenal players. This was his sixteenth league goal.

"Yeah!!!"

Arsenal fans raised their arms in response.

Chelsea fans next door covered their eyes, not wanting to see their team fall behind.

Are they going to have to watch their neighbors win the championship again this season?

They're both London teams, and they've both spent a lot of money, so why is there such a big difference?

Countless questions filled the minds of Chelsea fans.

They even questioned whether Mourinho's departure was ultimately a good thing or a bad thing for Chelsea.

They seem unable to accept the lack of results in a short period of time.

But the world of football is not a world where results are achieved in the short term. Didn't Arsenal also endure more than ten years before they finally succeeded?
Conte grabbed his hair and realized he had a hair transplant, so he couldn't pull it too hard, otherwise he would damage the hair roots and cause inflammation of the hair follicles.

I glanced at the substitutes' bench.

No player can turn the tide of a game simply by coming on.

Wenger next door smiled and applauded, then called Qin Ming to the sidelines, "Slow down the pace later and see if Chelsea gets impatient."

With a two-goal lead, they could easily slow down the pace of the game.

As for Everton's record of 30 goals in the first eight rounds of the league, Wenger wasn't actually too fixated on it. That was something from the ancient days of League One, and breaking it wouldn't do Arsenal any good.

Besides the amazement and praise from the media and fans.

Qin Ming said he understood and returned to the court to relay the professor's message to his teammates.

Arsenal are starting to slow down their pace!

"Is Chelsea going to press high up the pitch?"

"No, they seem to be adjusting their formation. They've changed to a 3-5-2, leaving the flanks wide open!"

The consequence of overcrowding the midfield is that the flanks become vulnerable.

However, as long as we can maintain control, the risks are acceptable.

But when Qin Ming used the outside of his foot to flick a tricky, curved ball, bypassing Chelsea's midfield line and heading straight behind Rudiger, Rudiger paid a yellow card to stop Dembele.

Chelsea's formation was forced to drop back a few meters.

For the remainder of the game, the two teams traded blows, engaging in a fierce battle for control of the midfield.

"Arsenal have fully demonstrated the strength of a strong team. They never get impatient after taking the lead, nor do they underestimate any opponent. Instead, they focus on doing a good job in defense!"

"But everything is just a prelude to the attack!"

"To defend against Arsenal's counter-attacks, Chelsea were unable to attack well or defend well, and their rhythm was completely disrupted!"

"The outcome of the match is no longer in doubt!"

"Arsenal will conquer Stamford Bridge once again and secure victory in the 7th round of the league!"

"Look how happy Arsène Wenger is. Arsenal's squad depth has improved this season, so is there a chance to achieve the unbeaten season they failed to complete last season?"

Let's keep watching!

Amidst Paul Dutton's praise, a "beep-beep-beep" whistle blew.

The match has come to a close.

Arsenal secured their seventh consecutive league victory with a 2-0 away win against Chelsea.

According to Dongqiudi: Arsenal have scored 27 goals in the first seven rounds of the league, just three goals away from Everton's record of 30 goals in the first eight rounds! And Arsenal's next opponent happens to be Everton!

4-4-2: Everton manager Ronald Koeman says he will defend the dignity of Goodison Park!

The Sun: Merseyside will welcome their most feared killer next week – Qin Ming! Rooney, perhaps out of fear, drank heavily at a bar last night and even behaved inappropriately towards a group of married women, nearly getting beaten up by their husbands!
According to eyewitnesses, "Rooney was acting crazy, dragging his feet, like Jack Nicholson in 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,' touching a group of married women in front of their husbands. It was just bizarre. They tolerated him and didn't tell him to get lost because he was Rooney, but one big guy got angry and threatened to beat him up."

The Sun also reported that Rooney yelled at the DJ that night, "Turn the fucking music up!"

He then turned on his phone and started listening to music.

Then, seemingly feeling disturbed by the other people around him, he yelled at the other guests, "Shut the fuck up!"

Arsenal haven't even played against Everton yet, and Everton is already embroiled in a media crisis.

A number of England legends, including Ronald Koeman, had to speak out in hopes that the matter would be dropped.

"Rooney apologizes for the photos that were published today. Although these things happened on the team's day off, Rooney has come to realize that such behavior is not in line with his status."

"Rooney has already spoken privately with Ronald Koeman and expressed his deepest apologies. In addition, Rooney wants to express his deepest apologies to the fans who support him."

Rooney's team released a statement the day before the match.

Dembele looked at the Sun's report and stared at Morata in disbelief. "Is Qin really that much pressure on people?"

"Of course!"

Morata seemed quite proud, saying, "The season before last, when I was at Juventus, I was constantly afraid of being drawn against Arsenal, and I gained three pounds because of it."

Are you sure it's not because you're greedy?

Qin Ming complained helplessly.
