Quoting “J Qu or J Qu, most of the people here are FPL 3-5-2, which midfielder is JWP worth giving up?”–August 14, 2023, Fan Z.
On the night of August 20th, JWP immediately surrendered two assists. It seems that the poor monk’s mana has become stronger again, and he can even hit the lamp a week later. Amitabha, believers remember that believers are saved. ????

As I said after the game, teams that waste too many opportunities deserve to be punished, but at least the positive signs are as obvious as the mistakes they made. It’s easy to forget the highlights of the team worth mentioning due to the poor results, but it should be equally important to praise and criticize.
Except for Gusto’s substitution for the injured James, there is no change in the main lineup. The main tactics are the same as when they played against Liverpool. Therefore, the tactical details discussed before will not be repeated. Gallagher has more room to play under pressure than if he played less. Chilwell also has more space to play the left wing of the team. Colwill actually plays the orthodox left gate. The division of labor of these players on the offensive end is the same, but this game has more opportunities to attack, so they show more of their offensive responsibilities, and I will briefly mention it as usual.
Compared with the last game, Jackson is the first to see the difference. Although a traditional center is not a necessity in modern football, it really saves a lot of trouble to have a player who can serve as an offensive beacon for a long time. Jackson’s main fulcrum role is different from Drogba’s striding forward center forward, but as the most forward point when advancing on the ground. According to the post-match statistics, Jackson’s range of activities covered the entire half of the opponent’s court, and the top of the penalty area was his most active area. With both footwork and speed, he is capable enough to respond to the vertical pass of his teammates. He can be the front-end receiving point no matter whether he reaches the foot or crosses the open space. Teammates on the back can seek cooperation. The most important thing is that his opening at the front can effectively drive the teammates behind him to press forward. The closer the overall formation is to the opponent’s penalty area, the greater the threat. Of course, these advantages are still limited to ground propulsion at this stage, because Jackson’s air control is not good enough.
Comparing Jackson to the two previous forwards shows what has been lacking in Chelsea’s offense over the past few years, and why players like Jackson are the answer to that lack. Havertz has the ability to respond to the foot wave and push forward, but his usual starting position as a midfielder is further back than Jackson, and a big push on the counterattack can pose a great threat (such as the winning goal in the Europa League final), but It is not suitable to be an arrow that opens the way in positional warfare. Havertz’s innate inability to break into the penalty area also caused Chelsea to often lack contact points in the penalty area. Lukaku’s skillset is more specialized, anti-offside response goes straight to the back of the opponent’s defense line, and then directly seeks to score opportunities. But firstly, Tuchel has never formulated a strategy for him (no one in the team who can pass the straight line has much to play), and secondly, Lukaku’s specialization also limits his ability to push forward to score goals, and cannot be used to drive the team forward. arrows.
The presence of Jackson makes up for Chelsea’s lack of offensive focus in recent years. Although it is not yet a lighthouse to send the ball to his head, considering the lack of front-end passing options and the most basic presence in the box in the past few years, Jackson at least meets this requirement technically and consciously. Two needs. And seeing that he is only 21 years old, he is already quite good at using his physical condition to fight with opponent defenders, rather than simply relying on physical strength. In time, he should become a very headache in the enemy’s penalty area.
The right-wing Sterling’s method as a breakthrough point is much simpler and rougher, which is intuitively dribbling the ball hard. Although in the later stages of Manchester City’s career, Pep was often used as a full-time wedge on the left, but Sterling’s individual combat ability on the right has always been good. The game against West Ham can be regarded as his best performance since joining the Blues. The typical winger’s combination of speed, low center of gravity, and twisting skills is not news, but knowing what Sterling will do does not mean you can defend him. The turmoil on the right forced out Emerson’s yellow card, and even Paqueta was frequently pulled over to help defend. It is a pity that Sterling’s handling of the ball after breaking into a favorable position still needs to be improved, but even if the “kicking” is not very good this game, he is obviously very good at the “kicking” part.
However, opening up the open space is only the first step to success, and the team is not qualified in how to use the open space. Jackson’s coming shots kept the team from attacking presence in the penalty area, but he and Chilwell alone were not enough. There were only four shots from Shengbo in the penalty area during the aggressive attack in the first half. Except for Chukwuemeka’s kick to break the net, all of them were arranged by Jackson and Chilwell. A pass across the penalty area at the end of the first half is the most telling. It passed three offensive players back and forth, but the three were either half a step forward or half a step behind. Enzo’s 12-yard banquet was an accident, but the lack of enough knotters in the penalty area during positional warfare, and the current tacit understanding and cooperation are not enough to create and grasp higher-quality shooting opportunities, which are systemic problems that need to be continuously resolved.
Moyes isn’t dumb either. In the first half, Chelsea was unable to effectively use the space, and in the second half, Chelsea simply did not even leave space. West Ham, who was concentrating on defending the low post, on the one hand narrowed the distance for Chelsea’s engine to advance, and on the other hand completely strangled the remaining room for movement. So Sterling got the ball but couldn’t get out, Jackson was caught in hand-to-hand combat and couldn’t get out, and the two who led the way misfired instantly.
The move to bring in Caicedo did not add to Chelsea’s ability to unlock West Ham’s defense either. Mudryk came in at halftime to replace the injured Chukwuemeka, and then mainly played in the half-space between Chukwuemeka’s original left and the penalty area. Chilwell’s departure simply liberated Mudryk’s right to operate on the left, and Gallagher pushed forward to fill the vacancy in the center. . But as mentioned above, what Chelsea lack is an offensive point in the penalty area, and Chilwell, who was taken away, is one of them.
Maybe Pochettino’s plan is to let Mudryk and Sterling fly together to form an echo, and Gallagher’s back to fill the lack of grabbing points. However, under West Ham’s strangulation, Gallagher’s ability to sneak attack the opponent’s return defense time difference during the in transition could not be brought into play, and West Ham’s defense has never been deformed enough to form a gap under the hard work of the soldiers. Since Gallagher couldn’t get up, Chilwell, who stayed in the penalty area from the beginning, was more useful in the attack. Mudryk has done a decent job roaming the wing and fighting fouls, but he’s not the type to get into the paint either. The ideal point of attack is actually already in the formation, but they are still recuperating in the ward…
At this point in the course of the competition, the script of “I can’t win for a long time” that will appear many times in the middle of the year has almost taken shape. The status quo of the team and Pochettino’s impromptu transfer are not enough to win the contest with Moyes. Enzo’s banquet and Caicedo’s disastrous debut are just “additional” worth 200 million. Enzo and Caicedo may not be so bad in the future, and Antonio may not be able to perfectly grasp the only chance to score in every match (the shot through Disasi is really hopeless), but the real reason for the defeat is still the A tactical confrontation.
Fortunately, most of the problems that have arisen can theoretically be resolved over time, and looking at the “phased results” that Pochettino has handed over so far, at least it can allow fans to see the light after the pain. The two 100 million gentlemen in the midfield are easy to deal with. One will either practice hard at twelve yards or substitute shots, and the other will train until he is no longer a straight downward purple arrow and then send him on the field. Um? You say the root of the problem is the lamp power of the poor monk? Then, all benefactors, remember to give alms to the poor monk, and wait for the poor monk to alms for alms and eliminate disasters…⚡⚡
