“Lights at Stamford Bridge seem to be brighter than the Wow Road Stadium.” exclaim some fans in the away team fan area.

The fans who came to Luton looked at the team boss. David Morton had to pretend he didn't see anything. No need to spend money to change the stadium lighting ...

The reason fans pay attention to lighting is because Chelsea have controlled the ball for three minutes, but in fact they did not put the ball into the Luton penalty area, so the match scene is still quite boring. With a cross, the game started almost three minutes later, and not even a single shot.

Chelsea of course want to press and eat this arrogant second division team in one bite, but as long as the ball goes through the centre circle, the Chelsea players can feel the defensive pressure that the opponent carries with them strongly.

Lampard retreated from the position of the front midfielder to the center of the circle to get the ball, because Deco's team never cross from left to right in midfield, but could not find the front line, he said, so Lampard came back and asked for the ball.

Although Scolari wanted to establish Deco's core position in the team, Deco still dared to fight opponents in front of the Chelsea dressing room like Frank Lampard.

Lampard took the ball and turned from his line of sight, there were players who wore orange shirts, and Chelsea players seemed to be cut one by one by Luton players. Passing was almost impossible, Luton concentrated a large number of players in small spaces to participate in the defense.

Lampard wanted to make a long pass, but found that he had players on both sides pinning and closing in, so Lampard then passed him back.

Ivanovic tried to make a deep pass after getting the ball, but because his long pass in the backcourt was too long, after the ball landed, Luton's overall formation almost shifted.

"The efficiency and discipline of the formation movement is excellent !!"

Scolari in blue sportswear flicked the gray beard beside her lips, and glanced towards Gao Bo who was standing not far away.

This young man is not just talking big ... Judging from Luton's performance in the last few minutes, this is a well-trained team.

The Luton Defense was not an iron barrel formation in the usual sense, but rather like a piece of brown sugar moving back and forth in the field. As the ball progressed, they also accumulated a large number of players on the side of the ball, which made Chelsea The players feel that there are far more players in Luton than Chelsea in the local area.

This is why Chelsea cannot pass the ball to the frontcourt quickly.

"Our feed speed should be faster !!!"

Lampard also first saw such defensive tactics, but he quickly discovered the weaknesses of these tactics.

Speed up the operand! !

Accelerating passes was indeed an effective way to break Luton's tactics.

But speeding up passes is easy to say, but not all teams can easily do it. Chelsea are a strong team in European football, but previously, Chelsea were not a team known to pass and control the ball. Scolari's transformation from Chelsea is only superficial. He just increased the Deco weight to hold the ball. Now Deco is a backward midfielder who takes the ball through Deco. The Chelsea players moved again, and Deco passed the ball a bit like a classic midfield game.

Gao Bo called Simeone's defensive system at Atletico Madrid in the future, amassing enough personnel in some areas, putting huge pressure on opponents' ball holders.

But the weakness of this formation is clearly also there, at that time Barcelona had beaten Atletico Madrid with quick and continuous passing.

Set the absolute numerical advantage in the key position, this is the core of the iron barrel formation tactic.

Set a number advantage in the local area, as Gao Bo says. However, the prominence of this figure could be within the restricted area or in another area ...

For Luton, this is a defensive and offensive formation, once Chelsea make a mistake, Luton can instantly start counterattacks once it steals the ball! !

However, Scolari is still an old-school football coach.In fact, the method of playing to form a single core is now increasingly abandoned by the times. Even Barcelona who have been insistent on passing control flow is now gradually away from single core tactics, especially when players have too much control of the ball, then the opponent's tactics are easy to target.

The same goes for Chelsea. Gao Bo's eyes were fixed on Deco. As Lampard returned to pick up the ball, the muscles in Gao Bo's mouth trembled ... Lampard returns to ruin game ...

A pity...

“Luton deserves to be a prestigious team in the second division. Under the guidance of the Chinese coach, the tactical style of the team is loaded with personal traits. This is my first time playing in the English league. Look on the Internet, " said Letkinson.

"This method consumes too much physical energy for the players ..." Little Redknapp in the side raised doubts over whether Luton can survive this way of playing. To the second round ... "

Little Redknapp's doubts are justified. In fact, in the development of modern football, the fastest change is in the running data. In the era of Little Redknapp, football tactics were very different from today. At that time, after the match, the players were very diligent in running five or six kilometers.

In the next generation of Gao Bo, in 2018, during football matches of considerable quality, players often run up to ten kilometers! !

On the one hand, due to changes in the rules of football, the pace of football is becoming faster, while on the other hand the development of football tactics increasingly requires players to move.

Gao Bo does not worry about Luton's physical fitness, in Luton's daily exercise physical fitness is the most important thing. And Luton's ranks are mostly young people in their twenties It's a youth army with a lot of energy.

Chelsea's passing speed is really accelerated.

Lampard and Deco have good skills on their feet, and they can do this kind of quick-feed work.

Both of them passed several times in midfield, and very quickly passed the ball to the front of the Luton penalty area.

Then Lampard took a kick away from outside the box, which was considered the first kick of the game.

The fans in the stands cheered, and the Luton fans were also stunned.

Gao Bo did not react much to this. He saw Chelsea's intentions. The ongoing cooperation between Lampard and Deco is also perfect .. but can they always have such a perfect cooperation?

probably not...
