Champions Arsenal come from behind to beat Chelsea Chelsea ended Sunday's 2-1 defeat by champions Arsenal with two players who began their careers as right-backs alongside each other in midfield.
冠军阿森纳后来居上击败切尔西 切尔西结束了周日2-1击败冠军阿森纳的比赛,两名球员在中场开始了他们的职业生涯。
After spending £349m during the summer transfer window, how did they reach that point?
在夏季转会窗口期间花费了3.49亿英镑之后,他们是如何达到这一点的?
It was Reece James, who began his career as a right-back, who failed to track captain Martin Odegaard as he scored Arsenal's winner at Emirates Stadium.
这是里斯詹姆斯,谁开始了他的职业生涯作为一个右后卫,谁没有跟踪队长马丁奥德加德,因为他在酋长球场打进阿森纳的冠军。
In the build-up to his first defeat as Chelsea manager, Xabi Alonso said he believes James can become one of the best midfielders in the world.
在他作为切尔西主教练的第一场失利的过程中,阿隆索说他相信詹姆斯可以成为世界上最好的中场之一。
James performed well otherwise and spent almost half of last season playing in midfield.
詹姆斯在其他方面表现出色,上赛季几乎有一半时间都在中场踢球。
But there are legitimate questions about Chelsea's depth in that area after Malo Gusto replaced midfielder Romeo Lavia in the second half.
但在下半场马洛*古斯托(Malo Gusto)取代中场球员罗密欧*拉维亚(Romeo Lavia)之后,切尔西在该领域的深度存在合理的问题。
It was lax marking that led to Odegaard's winner, while a lack of creativity from the bench left Chelsea short as Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta's substitutes ultimately helped guide the hosts to victory.
这是一个松散的标记导致奥德加德的胜利者,而替补席缺乏创造力使切尔西很短,因为阿森纳老板米克尔阿尔塔的替补最终帮助引导东道主取得胜利。
"Chelsea don't have European football this season so they're playing less games and can concentrate on the Premier League.
"切尔西本赛季没有欧洲足球,所以他们踢的比赛较少,可以专注于英超联赛。
But the worry is you're finishing a game against the champions, and you've got two right-backs in midfield," Ashley Young told BBC Sport. "You look at Lavia, who was injured a lot last season.
但担心的是,你正在完成与冠军的比赛,你在中场有两名右后卫,"阿什利杨告诉BBC体育。 "你看看上赛季受伤很多的拉维亚。
The front line are going to send fear throughout the league but behind that you see the midfield and they're playing right-backs there. "Teams will be seeing the game today, seeing that Chelsea will sit in there and get men behind the ball, but there's still spaces through the lines, and Arsenal found that out.
前线将在整个联赛中发出恐惧,但在你看到中场的背后,他们正在那里打右后卫。 "球队将看到今天的比赛,看到切尔西将坐在那里,让球后的人,但仍然有通过线的空间,阿森纳发现了这一点。
"Chelsea are giving up a lot of possession and they're playing counter-attacking football.
"切尔西放弃了很多控球权,他们正在进行反击。
Today there was probably only once with [Pedro] Neto down the right side when they capitalised on the counter." Reece James, right, has featured solely as a midfielder for manager Xabi Alonso in competitive matches this season The primary issue is the absence of midfielder Moises Caicedo.
今天,当佩德罗*内托在柜台上投球时,可能只有一次。" 里斯*詹姆斯,对,在本赛季的竞争中,他只是作为主教练沙比*阿隆索的中场球员 主要问题是中场球员Moises Caicedo的缺席。
The Ecuador international is out with an unspecified injury for an unknown period after breaking down just 11 minutes into a substitute appearance against Brighton last week.
这位厄瓜多尔国脚在上周对阵布莱顿的替补出场仅11分钟后,在一段未知的时间内受伤。
It has left Alonso in almost uncharted territory for a Chelsea boss.
对于切尔西的老板来说,这让阿隆索几乎处于未知的领域。
Aside from suspensions, Caicedo had missed only two matches during the previous three seasons, through a knock and illness.
除了停赛之外,凯塞多在前三个赛季中只错过了两场比赛,通过敲门和生病。
Asked about Caicedo, Alonso said: "Not longer term, but it is about assessing the risk. Probably last week we brought him back too early and I don't want to make the same mistake again."
当被问及Caicedo时,阿隆索说:"不是更长期的,而是关于评估风险。 大概上周我们把他带回来得太早了,我不想再犯同样的错误。"
It remains unclear whether Chelsea had concerns over Caicedo's fitness while pursuing several central midfielders on transfer deadline day. Monaco pulled the plug on Chelsea's £47m move for Lamine Camara at the last minute, leaving officials at Stamford Bridge furious.
目前尚不清楚切尔西在转会截止日追求多名中场球员时是否对凯塞多的健康状况有所担忧。 摩纳哥在最后一刻终止了切尔西以4700万英镑转会拉米内·卡马拉的计划,这让斯坦福桥的官员们愤怒不已。
Chelsea also had bids of up to £64m rejected for Bournemouth's Alex Scott earlier in the summer and were prevented from signing France international Manu Kone after Roma head coach Gian Piero Gasperini blocked the move.
切尔西在夏季早些时候还曾被拒绝高达6400万英镑的伯恩茅斯亚历克斯·斯科特的报价,且在罗马主帅贾恩·皮耶罗·加斯佩里尼阻挠后,未能签下法国国脚马努·科内。
Chelsea said they pursued Camara because of a market opportunity, adding that they were satisfied with their summer business and retained faith in their current options.
切尔西表示他们追求卡马拉是因为市场机会,并补充说他们对夏季业务感到满意,并对现有选择保持信心。
That was despite selling Enzo Fernandez to Manchester City for a joint British-record fee of £125m on deadline day, without signing a direct replacement.
尽管在交易截止日以英国共同创纪录的1.25亿英镑转会费将恩佐·费尔南德斯卖给曼城,且未签下直接替代者。
However, Caicedo's absence means he joins Jordan Henderson on the sidelines, with the England international still recovering from a broken arm suffered after falling over an advertising hoarding while an unused substitute at the World Cup.
然而,凯塞多的缺阵意味着他将与乔丹·亨德森一同坐在场边,这位英格兰国脚仍在从世界杯未上场替补身份跌倒后摔倒广告牌后手臂骨折的恢复中恢复。
Natural midfielder Valentin Barco, who joined from Strasbourg in the summer, has been overlooked in favour of Gusto in all three of Chelsea's Premier League matches.
天生中场瓦伦丁·巴尔科,夏天从斯特拉斯堡加盟,但在切尔西的三场英超比赛中都被古斯托取代。
With Gusto starting in midfield, Chelsea recorded 25.6% possession in last weekend's 4-3 victory over Brighton, their lowest figure since records began in 2003-04.
古斯托首发中场,切尔西在上周末4-3战胜布莱顿的比赛中控球率达到25.6%,创下自2003-04赛季纪录以来的最低纪录。
If all of Chelsea's midfield options are fit, and Caicedo's injury proves only minor, they should be able to cope with five midfielders in a season without midweek European football, as Alonso argued before the match.
如果切尔西所有中场选择都健康,而凯塞多的伤势只是轻微的,他们应该能够应对一个没有周中欧洲赛场的赛季中五名中场球员,正如阿隆索赛前所说。
Chelsea have leaned on their star attackers in Morgan Rogers, a resurgent Cole Palmer and the prolific Joao Pedro in their opening three matches.
切尔西在前三场比赛中依靠了他们的明星攻击手摩根·罗杰斯、复苏的科尔·帕尔默和高产的若昂·佩德罗。
Yet having conceded seven goals in three matches, Alonso said "we want to be tighter".
然而,在三场比赛中丢了七球后,阿隆索表示"我们想要更紧密"。
Chelsea defeat to Arsenal hurts - Alonso There was still plenty to admire about Chelsea's performance.
切尔西输给阿森纳令人痛心——阿隆索 切尔西的表现仍有许多值得称道的地方。
Club-record signing Rogers scored again in the second minute, becoming the first Chelsea player to score or assist in each of the club's opening three Premier League matches of a season since Eden Hazard in 2018-19.
俱乐部纪录签约的罗杰斯在比赛第二分钟再次破门,成为自2018-19赛季埃登·阿扎尔以来,切尔西首位在赛季前三场英超比赛中均有进球或助攻的球员。
It was arguably one of Chelsea's better performances against Arsenal during a run of 10 matches without a win against their London rivals.
这可以说是切尔西在对阵阿森纳的10场不胜之际表现较佳的表现之一。
There remains a 33-point gap to make up after Chelsea finished 10th in the Premier League last season.
切尔西上赛季英超排名第10,球队仍有33分的差距需要追回。
Alonso said after the match: "We came to win.
阿隆索赛后说:"我们是来赢的。
We knew that we were not that far, but it went their way.
我们知道距离不远,但结果还是对他们有利。
"It hurts, [we're] disappointed for sure.
"这很痛,我们确实很失望。
But this is the first defeat, this is going to be a long way and it doesn't have a big impact in our mood and in our mindset." Arsenal remain the benchmark Chelsea are trying to reach.
但这是第一次失利,这将是很长的路,这对我们的心情和心态影响不大。" 阿森纳依然是切尔西努力追求的标杆。
Although the Blues beat them to the signing of Rogers, they still trail the standard-setters in London and the Premier League. It served to highlight that, despite already recruiting 10 first-team players during a busy summer, Chelsea's failure to sign a midfielder on deadline day may have left them with a potential weakness.
尽管蓝军抢先签下了罗杰斯,但他们仍落后于伦敦和英超的标准球队。 这凸显了尽管在忙碌的夏季已经招募了10名一线队球员,切尔西未能在截止日签下中场球员,可能因此出现了潜在的弱点。
Alonso described the summer as "phase one" earlier this week. If Caicedo's return does not resolve Chelsea's midfield issues, the club may face questions over its decision not to sign a replacement for Fernandez before turning back to the market in January.
阿隆索本周早些时候将夏季称为"第一阶段"。 如果凯塞多的回归未能解决切尔西中场的问题,俱乐部可能会因决定在一月回归市场前签下费尔南德斯的替代者而受到质疑。
