Chapter 148 Am I a striker now?

It can be seen that Quaresma has not integrated into the team at all.

Naturally, Wenger will not throw Quaresma aside because he is not performing now. You must know that most players have just joined a team, and I am afraid that their performance is not as good as Quaresma. With cooperation, at least Quaresma's personal breakthrough is still very sharp, which is what Wenger is most optimistic about Quaresma.

In fact, Wenger has always had a plan, that is, on the basis of the team's existing beautiful football, in the counterattack or in the fast break, the combined offensive mode of the frontcourt will become a whirlwind fast attack.

Perhaps Henry's pairing with Ljungberg and Pires on both sides could have the meaning of a whirlwind trident, but after all, in many counterattacks, Ljungberg or Pires can easily be dragged behind, and Henry himself is completely alone. When it comes to support, you can only slow down your pace, so that the opportunity to counterattack is fleeting.

Bergkamp is getting old, and speed is not the strong point of the Ice Prince, so Wenger tried to use Reyes and Henry as a striker last season, so as to speed up the frontcourt counterattack.

However, although Reyes is a young genius, his progress has not satisfied Wenger. Even if he frequently appeared in the forward position, he only scored 10 goals in all competitions last season, far from Meet Wenger's expectations.

The sudden emergence of Quaresma in Porto last season made Wenger see the possibility of this tactic taking shape, which is why he gave up Hleb and introduced Quaresma.

Although Hleb is amazing and his assist ability is worse than Quaresma's, his ability to threaten the goal is far inferior.

Arsenal has no shortage of people with pancakes, not to mention Pires and Ljungberg on the two wings, Xiaofa's assist ability is also fierce, even Ashley Cole in the backcourt can often contribute assists, Hleb's Ability can only be said to be the icing on the cake.

The problem for Arsenal now is that, apart from Henry, they lack a stable scoring point.

Bergkamp is old, and Bergkamp was not considered a prolific shooter at Arsenal, so can he still count on the young and unenlightened Van Persie?

Quaresma scored a total of 24 goals in the Portuguese Super League and the Champions League this season, all of which are wonderful, precious and full of gold, although Wenger does not think that just coming to Arsenal Quaresma can replicate the amazingness of last season Performance, but as long as he can score more than 20 goals in all competitions, it means that Wenger's choice has been successful.

After a season of integration and growth, coupled with the progress of other young players, next season is when Wenger is ready to exert his strength.

Quaresmar didn't know that he still shouldered the important task of upgrading Wenger's tactics to 2.0. He played awkwardly in the first half, so he naturally couldn't laugh. Anyway, he was not as comfortable as he played in Porto.

However, before Quaresma found his feeling on the right side, Wenger replaced Reyes at the beginning of the second half, Ljungberg played the right midfielder position, and Quaresma reached the forward line, and Henry stand together.

"I'm a striker now?" Quaresma hasn't realized this yet, and always thinks it's amazing.

Throughout his career, he has never played as a striker. Now in the first game at Arsenal, he has rushed to the front line. This feeling really makes Quaresma a little bit flustered.

If it is said that in Porto last season, Quaresma has completed the transformation from a full-back to a winger, and his scoring ability has greatly increased, but this does not mean that he can play the forward position well. Although both forwards and wingers have A front word, but two completely different concepts.

Walking into the court and looking at the dejected opponent who was obviously not interested, Quaresma felt that he could definitely make a difference.

At the beginning of the second half, Quaresma did get a chance right away, and even Quaresma felt miraculous.

In the position of the double forwards, Henry is on the left and Quaresma is on the right. This is Wenger's arrangement and it is also convenient for the two players to cut inside.

Quaresma stood directly in the penalty area, a position he was not used to before, and he liked to penetrate rather than stay motionless in it.

In terms of height, although he has increased by 1 cm after crossing over, compared with the opponent's defender standing next to him, he is still five short in stature, and can only look up at his opponent.

Not enough in stature, but it does not mean that he is not strong enough. At least now, Quaresma is not afraid of confrontation with most of his strength. This is the result of his daily ironing.

He kept bumping into the opponent's defender and stuck his opponent behind him. Bergkamp caught the ball on the penalty area line. Seeing that Quaresma was so desperate, he couldn't bear it, so he sent the ball to Quaresma. Resma's feet.

It's no wonder that Bergkamp couldn't stand it anymore. Think about the sight of a five-short figure and a muscular man repeatedly entangled together. If you don't know the truth, you will feel more sympathetic to Quaresma.

But the fact is that the defensive player behind Quaresma is like a beeping dog. God knows why the frustration in front of him is so strong. He can't stand it at all.

Quaresma kept his balance all the time. He stepped on the ball and tried to turn to the left to wipe it away. After causing the opponent to move and get stuck, he quickly turned back and turned from the right to face the goal. It didn't take a second. With a pause, he stabbed with his kick, and poked the ball towards the goal.

The opponent's goalkeeper reacted quickly and made a god-like save. His outstretched foot blocked the ball at a critical moment, which made Quaresma regretful.

But at this time Henry had already reached the goal and easily shot the ball into the net, rewriting the score to 5:0.

Is this helping someone else make a wedding dress?

Well, it's all goals, even if they are not scored by themselves, they are still worth celebrating. Quaresma still has such awareness.

Henry, who scored goals like a routine, naturally wouldn't be too excited, but he still smiled and put his arms around Quaresma's neck, stroked his hair, and celebrated the goal together, which can be regarded as thanks to Quaresma for his indirect assist, after all Without Quaresma's shot, he couldn't make up the shot so easily.

Maybe the goal wasn't very exciting, and it didn't have much gold content, but Wenger on the sidelines suddenly stood up from the bench, with an expression of excitement and indescribable doubt on his face.

Isn't Quaresma a wide player?How can you use center technology?

Quaresma just used pure center forward technology, body against the back to get the ball, then turn around and shoot, the whole process was done in one go.

How did he do that?

Among other things, it is unbelievable that such a short person can achieve such an effect in the penalty area.
