10/11，我们昂首前进（8月12日 Gibbs、Wilshere英格兰首秀）(1L长期更新)

对于这场败战我有一些想法····

以下半场来看，切尔西的防守很简单，就是后场防守
然后像West Bromwich一样球一打入就3、4个人夹攻

要克制这类打法就需要3角进攻加上快速传球

还有一点就是我没看到有任何一个枪手用类似 Ozil式跑位来制造空间
几乎进攻时就4、5位球员站在前线等喂球
这一点可以说战术相当失败
以2004年的水准来说是水准降低到一半

还有一点就是第2个失球人墙需要负起责任
如同虚设的人墙不但留了一个漏洞
而且还在Alex开始起跑是不知所措
我宁愿一人中球倒下好过被攻入一球
不然你们拿这么高的薪资来干嘛

文哥曾经说过
现代足球的趋向是一个守门员+10个战士

Analysis Using Snapshots: Why Are Arsenal Susceptible To Counters Attacks – I

http://desigunner.wordpress.com/ ... ttacks-%E2%80%93-i/

While Gooners disagree on many issues, I think our weakness of conceding counter-attacks, often from good attacking positions, is something many agree on.

Since this international break is boring the life out of me, I thought it will be worthwhile discussing why we are so vulnerable to the counter. The Chelsea game threw up some interesting situations and I’ll follow my usual approach of using snapshots for the analysis as I feel that makes it easy to follow the narrative.

In the first instalment of this series let’s take the fifteenth minute of the game. Arsenal had just won a throw on the right touchline. It was taken quickly and Wilshere spread the ball to the left with a good cross-field ball (something I want to see a lot more of but that’s a topic for another day).

In the first image we see Clichy controlling the pass. Most of the Chelsea players are on their left flank or central. Arshavin is fairly central but leaning towards the left. Wilshere can be seen at the bottom left of the image and Song is somewhere behind him.



From the next image we can infer that Clichy takes the ball forward and plays a one-two with Arshavin. Chelsea have men behind, look at the three man wall in front of Arshavin, and Diaby has made a run into the box. It’s interesting to note that while Chelsea were playing a 4-3-3, all their three midfielders are close to the defence and very well organized. Also note the huge space behind Essien and Mikel as neither Song, nor Wilshere has moved forward. We can’t see Chamakh in the centre of the box being marked by Terry or Nasri on the edge of the box with Cole.



Next we see that Terry intercepts the cross easily without any pressure from Chamakh and rolls it to Mikel.



Chamakh tries to close him down but the Nigerian has enough time to turn and play the ball forward to Essien who is already running into space. Arshavin is admiring the movement.



Essien has acres of space to run into and that forces Wilshere to rush forward. The youngster comes forward at high speed and dives in. The Ghanaian hard-man beats him with a simple flick to the side. Wilshere commits a foul but Essien stumbles and regains control of the ball. Jack is on the ground and can’t get back in time.



Song is quite a distance away in no man’s land and Essien has a lot of time to pick the right ball forward.



Drogba had moved to our left touchline at the halfway point. Essien put a lovely ball between Drogba and the defenders. Our central defenders are backtracking and one of them is forced to come towards the ball.



Drogba then rolls it into the path of Anelka who has made a run to the left side of our penalty box. Squillaci is in close attendance while Koscielny is tracking back.



Anelka then tries to roll it back into the path of the onrushing Drogba but doesn’t get his angles right. Squillaci does a good job of pressurising him and Sagna does well to sprint back and hoof it for a corner, a good safety first approach.



While the articles looks long and takes time to read, those with a keen eye would have noted that only 20 seconds had passed from the time Clichy controlled the ball till the time Sagna hoofs it out. If you look from the time Terry intercepted the ball, Chelsea took 13 seconds and roughly 4-5 passes to reach a threatening position.

All credit to the defenders for dealing with the situation but this sequence of play does highlight some of our weaknesses.

The cross was easy to intercept
There was no pressure on Terry from Chamakh
Chelsea players had about 25 yards of free space in front of their box with no pressure from an Arsenal midfielder
Wilshere dived in instead of staying on his feet and forcing Essien into a quick and difficult pass
Song was in no man’s land
In itself, each of these issues is not that big a deal. But put them all together and we go from an attacking position to one of danger within seconds. Unfortunately, we tend to repeat these mistakes quite often, especially against the bigger teams.

Our defenders do a good job most of the times but when they’re put under pressure time and again, an odd mistake is bound to occur. Inevitably, that leads to a goal and further pressure.

In the coming days I’ll repeat this analysis covering different situations and other mistakes that lead to counter attacks against us.

Arsenal v Birmingham preview
Gunners take on Blues at Emirates Stadium
Last updated: 15th October 2010   

PREDICTIONS

Skysports.com's prediction: Arsenal 1 Birmingham 0

SKYBET odds: Arsenal 2/7, Draw 9/2, Birmingham 17/2

MATCH FACTS

Arsenal have led in all four of the matches against Birmingham with Alex McLeish in charge, but the Blues have come back to draw on three occasions

Arsenal have only kept two clean sheets in their 10 matches in all competitions this season

Andrey Arshavin has set up more goalscoring chances (21) than any other player

One to watch: Andrey Arshavin


Arsenal will be keen to get their Premier League campaign back on track against Birmingham City after three league games without success.

After thrashing Bolton 4-1 on home soil, Arsene Wenger's men were held by Sunderlandbefore losing to West Brom and Chelsea.

Alex McLeish's Birmingham are going through a rough patch themselves having failed to win any of their last four league outings.

They lost 2-0 to Everton at St Andrews before the international break and they have just one league goal since drawing 2-2 at Bolton.

On the few occasions Arsenal have lost at home in league action they have responded with a win, while Blues have failed to win any of their last eight away matches in Premier League action.

Gunners news

Arsenal are boosted by the availability of Denmark international Nicklas Bendtner for the first time this season after overcoming groin problems.

Full-back Kieran Gibbs is also fit after a calf injury while winger Theo Walcott (ankle) could be involved after looking sharp in training.

Cesc Fabregas (hamstring) and Manuel Almunia (elbow) are out, while Thomas Vermaelen(Achilles) and Bacary Sagna (thigh) are still a week away from being considered.

Dutch striker Robin van Persie (ankle) and Wales international midfielder Aaron Ramsey(leg) will not figure until next month following long-term injuries.

Blues news

Birmingham striker Cameron Jerome is doubtful for their trip to Emirates Stadium due to an ankle injury.

He suffered an ankle injury during training and, although it is not serious, it could keep him out of the encounter with Wenger's title challengers.

Summer signing Nikola Zigic could make his first league start since his ￡6million switch from Valencia if Jerome is unfit, while former Arsenal midfielder Alexander Hleb has recovered from the ankle knock which kept him out of Belarus' Euro 2012 qualifiers with Luxembourg and Albania.

However, midfield colleague Craig Gardner is again ruled out as he serves the second game of a three-match ban for his red card against Wigan Athletic.

Possible starting XIs:

Arsenal: Fabianski, Sagna, Squillaci, Koscielny, Clichy, Nasri, Diaby, Song, Wilshere, Arshavin, Chamakh.

Birmingham: Foster, Ridgewell, Johnson, Dann, Carr, Hleb, Bowyer, Ferguson, Fahey, Larsson, Zigic.

ARSENAL     V     SHAKTAR
Tuesday, October 19 19:45
Champions League
Emirates Stadium

By Jeremy Wilson
Published: 6:00AM BST 19 Oct 2010

Arsène Wenger has various dilemmas on Tuesday night, not least whether to bring Cesc Fabregas straight back into his Arsenal team. Fabregas has not played for more than a month and, while there will clearly be caution following his hamstring injury, he could do with minutes on the pitch ahead of the match against Manchester City on Sunday. Theo Walcott also falls into this category. Abou Diaby and Andrei Arshavin have both appeared jaded recently and could be rested.

Key battle: Sebastian Squillaci v Luiz Adriano
The build-up might has been dominated by the return to Arsenal of Eduardo, but Wenger may be rather more concerned about the threat posed by Luiz Adriano, another Brazilian-born striker. Adriano has been the main creative force behind Shakhtar's emergence as a major European force over the past two years and he has already scored two Champions League goals this season. Sebastian Squillaci has quickly established himself in the Wenger's starting team, although doubts do persist about the Arsenal defence.

Touchline duel: Arsène Wenger v Mircea Lucescu
Two of the most experienced coaches in European football will be going head-to-head at the Emirates. During a varied career that spans more than 30 years, Lucescu has lifted trophies in Romania, Italy, Turkey and now Ukraine. His Shakhtar team have won their domestic league in four of the past five seasons and his success in the Uefa Cup of 2009 means that his CV boasts the European trophy that Wenger's still lacks.

Team details (probable)
Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Fabianski; Eboue, Squillaci, Djourou, Clichy; Song, Wilshere; Walcott, Fabregas, Nasri; Chamakh.
Shakhtar Donetsk (4-5-1): Pyatov; Srna, Rakitskiy, Chygrynskiy, Shevchuk; Gai, Hubschman, Teixeira, Jadson, Willian; Adriano.
