Chapter 201 White Lily Arrives (Daily Transition)

In the summer window of 2013, after Tottenham sold Bale, they had huge sums of money to recruit new players. As a result, the new players were not able to adapt to the local environment, the club’s performance declined sharply, and they were slaughtered repeatedly.

This season, Argentine coach Pochettino came to White Hart Lane, carried out tactical innovations, boldly used young players, and brought new vitality to Tottenham.

Pochettino is Bielsa’s disciple.

It is also the natural enemy of the inheritance of the Ke system.

The first time he took over as coach of the first team, he led Espanyol, who was at the bottom of the points table at the time, to defeat Guardiola’s peak dream team Barcelona.

Premier League match day is here.

Tourists from all over the world gather in the souvenir shop at the Etihad Stadium.

Gao Qi’s jerseys and peripheral products were sold out.

Blue team flags were flying in the stands on all four sides of the stadium.

“Zhuangdianertai! Zhuangdianertai! Good evening, audience friends.”

“Welcome to the 2014/15 Premier League season!”

“Manchester City at home against Tottenham.”

“Blue Moon vs. White Lily.”

“What kind of sparks will be created by the collision between two extremely fierce offensive teams?”

“We’ll see.”

Pre-match press conference.

Pochettino was a little distracted.

About four years ago, he learned about Gao Qi’s existence from Rome’s assistant coach Ivan.

He and Ivan have been friends for many years and often contact each other via email and phone.

Unexpectedly, Gao Qi has grown to this point.

Shaking his head, he looked towards the media gallery.

“Hmm? What did you ask? Repeat it again.”

“How to win?”

“Score more goals than Manchester City!”

“There is no way Tottenham can defend and get away from the Etihad unscathed.”

clap clap clap!
There was thunderous applause in the auditorium.

Media reporters admire Pochettino’s radical style of play, which is a little bit like his mentor Bielsa.

Player tunnel.

The 20-year-old Harry Kane enthusiastically high-fived Gao Qi.

“Gao, I often watch your videos and learn your ball handling and positioning.”

“It’s the running position.”

Gao Qi corrected it seriously.

He can’t be considered a wheelchair center forward now, he is much faster than Giroud.

Suddenly, he couldn’t help but feel that this scene seemed to have happened somewhere before, and similar lines were what he had said to Klose back then.

“Gao, long time no see.”

Lamela waved reluctantly.

I feel regretful.

If he had stayed in Rome for one more year, he might have won the Champions League trophy.

My fighting ability on the wing is much stronger than that of Salah.

CTV5 live room.
–
[Slaughter bureau, starting with 4 to 0. ]
–
[Tottenham has no positional advantage at all. Take away Lamela and Eriksen, two T1-level players, and the rest are all T2-T3 young players.]
–
[That Harry Kane only scored three goals last season. His footwork is too rough, his speed is slow, and his awareness is poor. It will take a few more years of practice to develop the skills of a center forward.]
–
[You have to consider the tactical bonus. Pochettino led Southampton to beat Manchester City 3-1 last year. ]
–
[Pochettino is also a young physical coach in the growth stage. He emphasizes pressing and attacking, and has high requirements for players’ running. The new season has only started for two months, and Tottenham players’ physical fitness cannot be trained so quickly. ]

The referee team led the players from both teams out of the line.

The Manchester City fans and Tottenham fans in the stands were at peace and cheered for their own players.

Three years ago, a very funny thing happened: Tottenham fans wore Manchester City jerseys and ran to the training base of their arch-rival Arsenal to cause trouble.

“The following introduces you to the starting lineups of both sides.”

“Manchester City’s formation is 4-2-3-1!”

“Goalkeeper: Joe Hart.”

“Defenders: Sagna, Kompany, Demichelis, Clichy.”

“Double defensive midfielder: Lampard, Fernandinho.”

“Central midfielders: Navas, Gao Qi, Milner.”

“Forward: Aguero.”

“Blue Moon has a good bench depth and can put together many lineups with strong immediate combat effectiveness.”

“Due to the rest of David Silva and De Bruyne, Gao Qi’s position tonight may be a number nine and a half, which is more of an organizational position.”

“On the other side.” “Tottenham’s formation is also 4-2-3-1.”

“Goalkeeper: Lori.”

“Defenders: Rose, Fazio, Vertonghen, Dier.”

“Double defensive midfielder: Dembele, Mason.”

“Central midfielders: Shazli, Eriksen, Lamela.”

“Forward: Harry Kane.”

Accompanied by the referee’s whistle.

The game officially begins.

Manchester City possession.

Aguero kicked the ball back to the backcourt.

Tottenham’s front players quickly rushed through the center circle and started pressing.

“The styles of Argentine coaches are very similar. Simeone and Pochettino have the same tactical style.”

“Different.”

“Simeone’s pressing is to cut off space and make the opponent’s backcourt pass path go according to his own ideas.”

“Pochettino’s pressing is more pure, just to fight for the ball.”

Kane ran as fast as he could.

The first thing the new coaching staff said to him this season was: “Defend! Defend harder than those center forwards like Mandzukic, Dzeko, Firmino, and Gao Qi!”

However, Tottenham’s physical training and coordinated pressure have not yet shown results.

Their front pressing didn’t work.

The football moved smoothly on the green field and finally rolled towards Manchester City full-back Sagna.

The director’s camera immediately cut to the close-up of the stands.

“Saniya’s wife is still as beautiful as ever.”

“White skin, beautiful face, hot body.”

“I heard that she was the one who took the initiative to pursue Saniya.”

“Pretty!”

“Sagna made a long diagonal pass to Milner.”

Tottenham Hotspur’s formation contracted very quickly.

The defensive phase.

The forward must also switch to engineer form immediately.

“Milner is only 28 years old this year, but it feels like he has played in the Premier League for many years.”

“Hey, he played in the Premier League at the age of 16.”

“I can play in any position.”

“Look at how steady he is in stopping the ball. He is very experienced. He knocked the ball to Gao Qi in the middle before Tottenham’s two lines collapsed.”

Gao Qi took a step back to widen the distance between himself and Tottenham youngster Mason.

Before receiving the ball, he easily used his body to separate Moussa Dembele.

Moussa Dembélé was extremely talented when he was young. He was praised for his “vacuum cleaner-like footwork” and “Belgian Iniesta” very early on. He won the Eredivisie championship five years ago, but after joining the Premier League, he put all his offensive attribute points on defense, and his nickname became “Premier League Busquets”.

Snapped!
Gao Qi did not continue to fight with opponents on both fronts at Tottenham.

Do it quickly.

A familiar figure came forward!

“Lampard!”

“Can he resist the urge to shoot from a distance?”

“I can’t help it!”

Lampard is a well-known heavy hitter in European football.

Officially certified by the Premier League with data: the Premier League’s top long-range shooter.

He was once commented by Cruyff: This guy has a strong scoring ability, which makes people easily misunderstand that he plays as a striker, but in actual games he also does a good job in midfield.

Bah!
The football whizzed out of the stands
The whole audience was amazed.

Randpa shook his head helplessly and gave Gao Qi a thumbs up.

“It was a very threatening shot.”

“It’s a pity that it didn’t go in.”

“Lampard is still as skilled as ever. He made a good use of the opportunity to get forward and caught the space created by Gao Qi.”

“The veteran only needs to score one more league goal to catch up with Henry’s record and rank fourth in the Premier League’s all-time scorer list.”
