Chapter 432

Chapter 432

The war of words between Mourinho, the French Football Association and Domenech is still going on, but as time goes on, this kind of confrontation has lost the feeling of gunpowder at the beginning.

But it can be seen that Mourinho will definitely cause trouble for the French team's recruitment next time. Anyway, many clubs have used the tactic of delaying due to injuries, and maybe he will use it for Domenech.

Anyway, this kind of wrestling between the club and the national team will never just break out like this.

As long as the World Cup and the league continue to have schedule conflicts, then this confrontation will always exist.

It’s just that in the middle of the splint, you must still be a player. If you don’t go back, you will say that you are not patriotic. If you go back, then you will bear the risk of injury. Once you are seriously injured, it will directly become a tragedy.

This kind of unlucky thing that delayed his future in the club because of a serious injury in the national team game did not happen only once or twice. Many players have to bear the huge risk of this two-line battle.

The club will definitely not want to see the players they paid for, and finally return to the game with injuries. If the injury is caused by the club, it’s fine, but for the national team?It just doesn't care.

However, between Chelsea and the French Football Association, this time it is a bit of a rift. At least Mourinho and Domenech have become deadly rivals. Thanks to that guy is not a club coach, otherwise, the team he led If you run into Chelsea, you will definitely be beaten badly by the Blues.

The aftermath of this war of words has not completely dissipated, and many media once again focused their attention on Chelsea. In the last game of the Champions League group stage, they failed to maintain their unbeaten record.

Although the record of five wins and one tie is dazzling enough, but looking at the group it is in, it seems to many people that it is only natural to get such a result, and it would be hell if it can't get it.

But even this unbeaten result has been used by many people to speculate on the current state of Chelsea.

Especially when Makelele, Lampard and others are injured, will Chelsea's performance start from the draw with PSV and go downhill, just like Arsenal did last season.

You must know that Arsenal also had a fierce start last season, with a strong attack on two fronts, and they also performed flawlessly in the first ten rounds. Many people even thought that they would defend their title undefeated.

But there is no need to repeat the results. Since the loss to Manchester United, Arsenal have been in decline.

If it weren't for their good performance at the end of the league, with several key victories in a row, coupled with the weakness of Manchester United and Everton, maybe these guys would have to participate in the Champions League play-offs,

Many people think that this time Chelsea has postponed its pace of grabbing victory, and it is similar to the process of Arsenal last season. It was in the middle and late November that they began to lose their sharp feeling.

Now Chelsea is being watched closely by everyone. Even if they have won a draw after they have already qualified for the Champions League group stage, many commentators and newspapers will find fault.

Injuries hit the players, and the tactical style of play remained unchanged. The early victory made Chelsea a little arrogant. These slobbers began to fill the pages of the newspapers, as if they were singing an elegy for Chelsea.

"Can a draw be worth such a fuss?" Brito also saw this posture for the first time. Even when they rushed to the Champions League final last season, they didn't pay so much attention.

It's good now, just one game can attract so many topics, and it can even be said to be criticism.

This is still a tie. If they lose, the headlines in these newspapers will probably be even more sensational.

Maybe there will be some doomsday for Chelsea, and maybe the defending champion will fall from this moment. Anyway, those reporters rely on this kind of thing to attract people's attention, and they are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

"No way, we are now the target of public criticism. Not only are competitors paying attention to us, but the media are also eager to find suitable topics from us, so there will be a lot of harassment."

Mourinho didn't seem to have any feeling about the media bombardment, although at least half of the newspapers on the table in front of him were filled with various gossip about Chelsea.

However, Mourinho has no time to pay attention to those reports that are far from the truth. He is very aware of the current state of the team, especially after Chelsea's Champions League group stage draw with PSV Eindhoven.

It was a game that was not in Mourinho's plan. The draw had no effect on him, and most importantly, it had no effect on the team. That's why he rotated most of the main players in the game.

After the national team game, he needs to allow the main players to have enough rest time. Even a player like Lin Yi who has not played, must have time to relieve the fatigue caused by the long-distance travel.

So before meeting Eindhoven, Mourinho has already explained to the players that it doesn't matter if he loses this game. He doesn't need to carry the burden of undefeated record on his back.

"The so-called record is nothing but admiration. Winning the group stage does not mean that you can take advantage of the knockout round. What we need now is adjustment, not the pursuit of the so-called record."

Mourinho has no feeling for the so-called records advocated by the outside world. He has never considered playing the trick of winning the championship undefeated. For him, winning more championships is justified.

Especially when the main players such as Makelele and Lampard are injured, he needs these main players to adjust their physical condition before encountering tough opponents.

Mourinho doesn't mind letting Eindhoven go, anyway, before the semi-finals, they have no chance to meet, not to mention the current state of the group of Dutch, it will not cause trouble for Chelsea.

But Mourinho is still a bit grumpy about the team's failure to win the opponent. Although Chelsea played almost all off the bench, in terms of strength comparison, Chelsea's overall strength is still higher than the opponent.

It's just that when facing the defense of PSV Eindhoven, Chelsea did not play the kind of attack with strong penetrating power. Neither Joe Cole nor Duff, who pressed up from the wing, could give the striker Gudjohnsen and Crespo on the line provided enough help, and the offense was not smooth.

Without Lin Yi's ball-distributing organization in the middle and the light cavalry's assault, Chelsea always dealt with the last pass, with less aura and more stylization.

There is no unexpected pass, and there is no such a sharp through ball. Mourinho saw the team playing that kind of mechanized football completely on the sidelines, and he was always thinking about it.

Many people said that Chelsea was infected with Lin Yi's dependence. Without that kid, Chelsea's offense would often be useless.

As the head coach of a team, Mourinho doesn't like to let others evaluate his tactical arrangements, but he also knows that this evaluation is also accurate. Now Chelsea is indeed a bit too dependent on Lin Yi's organization. He is like a person who suddenly lost his spine.

But this kind of so-called dependence is better to be less. After all, it is impossible for Lin Yi to avoid injuries. Once trouble entangles him, then the Chelsea team must be able to continue to maintain competitiveness.

It's just that the styles of Lampard and Gerrard are not as agile as that kid. Mourinho has been scratching his head recently. He really has to find a player for the team who can also organize offense in the midfield.

But that can only be Lin Yi's spare tire, that little lunatic is still the absolute core of Chelsea.

According to Brito, "Which famous guy is not the person his team relies on the most?"

"There's no need to worry about what those reporters said. What's with the dependence? Argentina has Maradona's dependence, but that guy can lead the team to win the World Cup. The more dependence, the better!"

However, Mourinho has no intention of publicly responding to those media speculations in the media. He really likes to talk about his achievements, especially that kid Lin Yi. People feel horrible, he seems to be unable to lack the excitement brought by that kind of competition.

"That old fellow Scolari allowed me to travel for more than ten hours on the plane for free, but he didn't give me a minute of game time. I really don't want to participate in this kind of international competition next time."

Even up to now, Lin Yi is still depressed why that damned Brazilian old man asked him to go back to prepare for the national team's game, but after the two games were over, he was not allowed to play, that beastly guy like Ronaldo , In these two games, he even assisted twice and scored two goals.

Thinking of that kid's sloppy face on the plane back to England, Lin Yi felt depressed.

But this time Scolari is really unlucky, he can be regarded as a representative of being shot while lying down. Originally, he planned to prevent Lin Yi from being in danger of being injured, but in the end this kindness became Lin Yi's biggest resentment.

It is estimated that the kid would rather fall down on the field than spend such a depressed time on the bench.

But Mourinho is very satisfied with Lin Yi's state of being able to die away from the game, and this is the first time he has not had such a temper with that old man Scolari, at least that stubborn old man who is hardcore. , knew how to protect the players, and didn't act like Domenech's idiot.

If Scolari asked Lin Yi to play rashly after he recovered from his injury, it is estimated that this bombardment would also bring him along, but Scolari avoided Mourinho's artillery fire, but suffered from Lin Yi. one shot.

This hungry state is excellent news for Chelsea, but it is certainly not good news for the next opponents, especially for Chelsea's opponents in the No. 12 league round.

Maybe Chelsea's draw against PSV gave Souness some hope, or maybe their miracle of knocking Chelsea out of the FA Cup last season gave the guy the guts to play at home.

Anyway, when facing Chelsea, Souness did not let Newcastle United form any defensive lineup. He even resorted to the double striker combination of Owen and Shearer, ready to fight hard.

"We will not easily admit defeat when facing any opponent, including facing Chelsea. They will also see what is called a crazy attack at Newcastle United's home court!"

What Souness said before the start of the game seemed very decisive. It can be seen that this guy is indeed ready to take advantage of the standard robbery when Chelsea's injuries increase.

Unfortunately, he seems to have forgotten that the most dangerous kid in the Chelsea team will still play. Although Newcastle United won once last season, Chelsea also let go of their harsh words, and they must be taught a lesson!

Both Mourinho and Lin Yi are the kind of guys who do what they say, so when they encounter Newcastle United, there is no need for Mourinho to mobilize. Lin Yi has already launched a fatal blow first.

Originally, Drogba was forced to suspend due to accumulated yellow cards, and Lampard and Makelele were injured, which gave Souness the courage to attack, but this guy hadn't had time to urge the team to press hard.

Under the leadership of Lin Yi, the Chelsea team has shown the more than 5 fans sitting in St. James' Park what is called a championship-level offense. The accuracy is quite scary.

Although there is no Drogba's high point support in the frontcourt, Chelsea's offense is still sharp. After all, a shooter of Crespo's level is no worse than that African elephant.

Lin Yi had no scruples when facing old opponents Bowyer and Solano. The lack of Lampard's support does not mean that this kid can't create offensive opportunities by himself. His dribble is still very sharp.

Although he didn't play in two games, as long as he stepped on the turf, Lin Yi's ability to control football would cause headaches for many opponents. This time is no exception, and the opponent will be tortured as usual.

With the experience of being sent off the field last season, Bowyer didn't dare to shoot or make a black hand this time, but he and Solano's double-team defense still failed to really mark Lin Yi to death.

Less than 5 minutes into the opening, Lin Yi forced his way between the two of them, leaving the two guys with only each other's arms. Souness almost went crazy when he saw this scene.

"An idiot's defense!", Souness could barely control his roar from the sidelines.

But what he can get in exchange for his roar is only the cautiousness of the substitute players on the sidelines, it cannot turn the players on the field into Bumpman instantly, and it is impossible for Bowyer and Solano to catch up with Lin Yi immediately.

These two guys are still hugging each other in embarrassment at this moment, not to mention, this scene is really affectionate.

But Souness is probably not the only one who is going crazy. When Newcastle United goalkeeper Shay Given saw Lin Yi pass the ball to Crespo's feet, he was the most collapsed person in the entire team.

His roar failed to prevent his defenders from stopping Lin Yi's pass, and he also failed to stare at Crespo.

When Lin Yi killed him, the Newcastle United defenders probably still remembered how he raged last season. This kind of subconscious fear made them all jump on him.

Maybe these guys think that this kind of defense can stop Lin Yi's attack, or at least prevent the breakthrough.

But Lin Yike didn't intend to play solo at all, all he needed was a passing space.

It was such a simple breakthrough, an inadvertent pass, but it was enough to penetrate the entire defense of Newcastle United, and Crespo didn't need to adjust at all after receiving the football.

He only needs to look up, see where Ji Wen is, and then accurately push the football to the other side, which is considered to be the completion of the task, and when he shoots, the opponent has not even had time to react.

The Newcastle United fans sitting in St. James' Park could only watch as Crespo gave Shay a hard lesson with his precise footwork. His shot was simply unstoppable.

"GOAL!!! The Argentine striker's perfect strike!" Such a passionate commentary could only come from the mouths of Chelsea supporters, while the "Magpie" supporters looked helpless.

Owen Garhiller, whom they had high hopes for, hadn't got a chance to shoot, but the Chelsea people had already scored for the first time. Who the hell said those guys in blue clothes were almost crushed by injuries!

To hell with it!This group of animals is now as fierce as a group of butchers with knives!

Chelsea's offense often defeats the opponent's courage in an instant, and this time is no exception. If Souness still has a plan to make the opponent look good, then now he doesn't want to at all.

But he forgot that the beasts in Chelsea would never stop attacking just like that.

Crespo's scoring allowed Chelsea to completely take the initiative on the field. Newcastle United's offense could not be organized at all. Although Makelele was not on the field, Essien's interception ability was not at a disadvantage. Even this guy His physique is enough to make the opponent flinch. Even a villain like Bowyer was overthrown by the opponent in the confrontation with Essien. Africans are indeed a bit fierce sometimes.

When Shearer was running back and forth on the field, he was very depressed, especially when he saw Lin Yi constantly tearing his defense line with passes, this depression was even more accumulated. Last season, he As the commentator of the Champions League final, it was very cool to watch. Now it's my turn to suffer, and I know how AC Milan's defense was destroyed by this kid.

"That kid is simply a beast..." When Shearer saw the score on the big screen rewritten to 3:0, he could only grit his teeth and say England's traditional national curse at Lin Yi.

A four-to-zero victory only added three points and four goal difference to the Chelsea team, but such a fierce attack by these guys extinguished a lot of rumors surrounding themselves.

Sometimes, the facts speak louder than words, that Chelsea go downhill?If this kind of victory is still going downhill, then Mourinho has no problem at all, he can't wait for it to be like this every day.

It's just that such a fierce state is not good news for the upcoming Manchester United.

"Who said that these animals are suffering from injuries? Can they still play Newcastle 4-0 with injuries?"

When Ferguson was watching the video of the game, he already had a headache. . .
