Chapter 302 Selling People Without Instructions

Above the stadium, in a corner of the fan section.

Wenger was indeed here, but this time he bought his own ticket and covered himself up quite well, so not many people recognized him.

Of course, no matter how much he tried to disguise it, he couldn't fool the fans around him.

They were very familiar with this head coach...

"professor!"

"did you see it?"

"Aubameyang played really well!"

"Mkhitaryan played well too!"

“Of course, of course, they are all great players.” Wenger nodded casually, but his gaze remained fixed on Cazorla.

In his eyes, Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang were just performing as expected.

They are already extremely talented players.

But Cazorla's condition was something he hadn't expected.

In fact, the player's physical functions have declined a lot compared to before, but his condition looks better than before.

This isn't because his technique has improved, but rather because the player's understanding of tactics has become deeper.

Just like before, he quickly discovered Burton's weakness and found a way to deal with it.

This is the significance of the "Tactical Master".

However, the players' physical fitness remains a problem.

Even though Arsenal has changed many players, Wenger will not feel unfamiliar with the place because he has always been following the team.

As for Burton...

Actually, he understands it quite well.

The main reason was that he was interested in Li Yanqing.

He noticed a very distinctive characteristic in this young man.

That means most players can regain their form under his guidance.

There are also some young players who are growing at an unexpected speed, as long as the players are willing to listen to them.

Arsenal themselves provide two very clear examples.

Cazorla and Justin...

I won't go into the former, but as for the latter, he was once hailed as a genius when he first came to Arsenal.

Sometimes when she gets going, her dribbling past opponents is just too smooth.

It even gave him a glimpse of Marcelo.

However, after spending some time with the team, the players' skills have actually regressed rather than improved.

Especially this match.

Justin has tried to break through quite a few times.

But his success rate was terribly low, partly because his opponents knew him very well, and partly because he himself made absolutely no progress.

Their previously somewhat loose defensive capabilities have improved.

However, since they bought him, they must have been attracted by his unique characteristics.

The absurd thing is that, according to Arteta, no matter how much he practiced, he couldn't improve his dribbling skills.

Wenger carefully compared all the conditions of Arsenal and Burton and always believed that Arsenal was much better than the latter in every aspect.

He built the foundation here, and he is very confident in it.

So the question is, why couldn't Arsenal, a top club, help Cazorla regain his form?

Is there no way to help Justin improve further now?

After much thought, he could only conclude that Li Yanqing's method was unique.

Like Borussia Dortmund, they have their own way of training young players, and they can grow quickly.

However, the problem that arises is that most of the players sold will quickly fade into obscurity at other teams.

Even if they don't fall into despair, it will be difficult for them to make any further progress.

There are far too many examples like this; it's not just a problem with the players themselves.

It's commonly known as selling someone without providing an instruction manual.

Looks like I'll have to find an opportunity to have a proper talk with that kid.

Back on the field.

With the first half nearing its end, the game entered a brief period of adjustment.

The attacks from both sides continued, but there was no progress.

Neither side has found a better way to break through the enemy's defenses.

"We'll make substitutions directly in the second half."

"Replace David Luiz and Ibrahimovic with Ogradi and Dybala."

Li Yanqing has made a substitution decision, and the substitute players can warm up during halftime.

This saves more time.

This decision means they will have to switch to a 4-1-3-2 formation.

"Well, but the other side doesn't seem to have any major problems with their physical fitness."

"At least I didn't see anything wrong with it."

Lyman was puzzled again.

The point is to wear them down, right? Then there's no reason to make substitutions when your own players still have energy.

“That makes sense.” Li Yanqing agreed with Lyman’s statement, but then quickly shook his head.

"However, my goal is not just to exhaust their energy."

"Don't forget, Cazorla understands us, and we understand him just as well."

"He'll go soft in less than sixty minutes."

"Whether we are replaced or not, it will be in our best interest."

"Therefore, replacing players in advance is more effective than replacing them at the appointed time..."

The start of the second half seemed to confirm what Li Yanqing had said.

Cazorla has no experience with a two-striker formation that has only been played this season, so he can't offer any defensive advice to the team.

However, he felt that the offense should be more relaxed.

Therefore, he moved his position forward a little this time.

However, what puzzled him was that Burton's defensive ability did not seem to be affected at all, and the ball was quickly intercepted.

The power of short passing combinations still cannot be fully realized.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead.

Foolish, so incredibly foolish.

He had completely forgotten that David Lewis was the one who was substituted.

Although this player is a strong defender, he wasn't contributing much to the defense at this point...

Even more obvious is that Burton's lineup is now much tighter.

They still weren't given any room to maneuver.

Meanwhile, Quinn also dropped back to the center line to guard him.

Cazorla became increasingly frustrated as he played.

"Quinn, aren't you going to organize the attack?"

"Retreat this far?"

In his mind, the opponent was a pure offensive player, so after one of his attacks was interrupted, he couldn't help but ask.

Quinn didn't speak, but pointed to Dybala in front of him.

With him around, I can retreat freely, it's okay...

Empiricism can be useful at times, but it has clearly caught Cazorla off guard.

He almost forgot about this!

I almost overlooked the most impactful trade of the summer!

"Damn it, oh!"

Before he could finish his exclamation, he was surprised to find that Dybala had already dribbled the ball out of the crowd!

Facing an attack from three people, he easily spun out with a Master-level Marseille Spin...

He is far more lethal than the aging Ibrahimovic!

Of course, this is related to his position; his task is simply to break through the enemy's defenses.

But Ibrahimovic has to do many other things besides scoring goals...

[Master-level aerial volley]!

The score is tied!
