Chapter 337

How bad Liverpool's current situation is is not a question that Mourinho or Chelsea players need to consider. A game is a game. There is no need to care about the current situation of the opponent. This is professional football.

Anyway, it is not uncommon for the Chelsea team to take advantage of others and kill them. In such an important game, the worse the opponent's condition is, the better it is for him. Although this sounds a bit cruel, there is no way. No one wants to be a loser, so Mourinho is now hoping that the opponent's team can become chaotic.

However, this does not rule out that it is Benitez's ecstasy array, which is used to confuse Chelsea in this way, but the price is indeed a bit high. After all, whether to participate in the European war next season, for Liverpool fans and management. It is indeed a big problem. After all, no one wants to face this embarrassing situation when a new official takes office.

But this is Liverpool's own business. Mourinho is not in the mood to care about Benitez's current situation. Just like Mourinho himself said, in their away game against Manchester United, Chelsea really Eight substitute players were sent, except for Lampard, Drogba and Petr Cech, the rest were all substitutes.

However, it is probably the dream of every Premier League coach to have substitute players like Joe Cole and Thiago.

And Manchester United did the same thing. Although they played this game at Old Trafford, Ferguson also hid most of the main players. He was obviously preparing for the FA Cup final.

The Scottish old man and Mourinho had a rare tacit understanding this time. He even explained in the locker room before the players went on the field that he didn't need the players to carry the idea of ​​revenge in this game.

"Play a game quietly, seize the opportunities that should be seized, and the rest, let the flow take its course."

Ferguson probably didn't say clearly that he didn't need players, especially the main players who couldn't rotate. Don't fight desperately with opponents. Even if he is playing at home, he must preserve his strength.

If there is any accident, or if a main player is injured suddenly, that will be the biggest loss in this game.

It’s just two teams that are equally uninterested in fighting, so don’t expect any exciting games. During the whole game, each other seldom threatens the other’s goal. It seems that this game is not a dialogue between the strong at all. .

Including those reporters who wrote reports after the game also said that this is a dull game, no passion, no excitement, everything is flat and a little drowsy, even the fans' shouts are much weaker .

The zero-to-zero ending is an acceptable result for both parties. Manchester United did not lose to their opponents at home. Similarly, Chelsea still only lost one league game this season. This can be said to be a happy ending.

"A draw does not mean that we do not pay attention to the game. This is a confrontation in the Premier League. We are all very serious about preparing for the game, so don't say we have reservations. Manchester United has always attached great importance to the battle in the league."

What Ferguson said after the game, now it seems that there is indeed a bit of concealment, and Mourinho also used this official answer to stun those unlucky reporters when he was taking questions from reporters.

At this time, no one is willing to admit in front of the media that they are playing negatively. Neither Ferguson nor Mourinho is an idiot, so although they did the same thing in the game, they must say those high-sounding words in front of the media. This is also the face they must give to the Premier League Organizing Committee, and everyone is tacitly aware of it.

And it's not just Manchester United and Chelsea who are passively slowing down here. Apart from those relegation teams who are still desperately trying, many Premier League teams have entered an adjustment period, and they are all waiting for the arrival of the summer truce.

Especially those teams that have players from their respective national teams have already begun to prepare for the World Cup qualifiers. Many national team members have also restrained themselves in the league to avoid unnecessary injuries.

When there is no suspense about the league championship, not many people are willing to go all out and fight their opponents. It can be said that Chelsea's strong championship has made many teams become passive and unmotivated.

I really don't know if the broadcasters and operating companies of the Premier League are now itching their teeth with hatred. Without Chelsea's monster record, the final stage of every year would be the time when the competition among strong teams is the most intense.

But the monster-like Chelsea team has changed everything. I really don't know if they buy more players during the summer transfer period, will the Premier League next season face the same embarrassing situation.

Like most of Manchester United's main players, Arsenal also drew away with Tottenham in this round. They also implemented a large-scale rotation, and Wenger's team also obviously had reservations.

It can be seen that the two old foxes, Ferguson and Wenger, have already suffocated and waited for a point in the FA Cup, but Mourinho has no time to grind his teeth with these two old guys, he must Consider a Champions League match.

However, Wenger had too many unsatisfactory things this season. Now that Henry’s contract renewal has not been settled, the young people he expected to grow up quickly have caused him a lot of trouble off the court. It's very disturbing.

Originally, at the beginning of the season, Pennant, whom Wenger valued very much, publicly complained to the media. Wenger refused to give him a chance to play, and he strongly demanded a transfer. Facing that bad boy, Wenger could be considered as patient as the limit So, shortly after Pennant's bombardment, that guy was directly purged by Wenger to Birmingham. For this kind of rebellious kid, Wenger didn't intend to tolerate this kind of rebellious kid no matter how self-restraint and quality he had.

This is not the most troublesome thing. After the game against Tottenham, the teenager Abeye, who had just been promoted to the first team by Wenger, and his own striker Robin van Persie and others rolled outside a cafe in central London A brawl ensued, and the bad boys even alerted the police.

Although these guys were all released on bail in the end, Wenger absolutely hated this kind of off-court scandal. It can be seen that Abeye may not appear in Wenger's new season roster next year. Van Persie and others have to accept certain punishment.

Maybe Wenger will really be jealous of Mourinho at this time. Except for a scandal with a female star, that little guy Lin Yi really rarely has any bad records off the court, and on the court, His performance also conquered many people.

Now turning around to look at the group of young people under his tent, only Cesc Fabregas and a few guys from the reserve team gave Wenger some comfort. One can make a name for himself in the Premier League.

Although Wenger and Ferguson value Lin Yi's role on the court and his good image off the court, not everyone thinks so, at least the heads of the English Professional Players Federation don't think that the kid is the best.

Otherwise, you really can't explain why this group of guys excluded Lin Yi's name early in the selection of the best rookie of the year, and didn't even give Lin Yi the chance to be selected for the best rookie. Is this a voting system? Are there any unspoken rules for things?
Who knows, anyway, in the annual best list selected at the end of April every year, Terry, the defensive backbone from Chelsea, took away the title of player of the year, and the best rookie was awarded to Lu Xiaopang from Manchester United.

Once such a selection result is exposed, it will naturally attract a strong backlash from Chelsea fans. At least in their eyes, Lu Xiaopang's performance is obviously not as good as Lin Yi's. Whether it is the team record or personal performance, Lin Yi is obviously higher than other players of similar age. The players are ahead.

"Don't we only know English people in our best selection of the year?" This is not only a question from Chelsea fans, but also from many neutral fans. Lin Yi's loyal fans.

No way, who made the kid show the dexterity and skills that make the English people refreshed on the court? It can be said that the way this kid plays on the court has already won him a large number of British fans, er, also There are a lot of British girls.

Although Ferguson is very satisfied with his player being selected as the best player of the year, the old man also admits in private that the selection this time is indeed a bit unfair to that kid Lin Yi. No matter how you look at it, his performance is better than that of Lu chubby.

But the awards have already been announced, and there is no way that there will be any changes. Although Chelsea fans are protesting, Lin Yi, the person involved, appears to be very calm. thing.

"That thing can't be eaten, and it can't be exchanged for money. The shape doesn't look good there. Why do you have to have it? Isn't the Champions Cup more real?" Lin Yi's words made Brito and Faria was pretty speechless.

This kid seems to be like this sometimes. Of course, except on the court, he doesn't seem to care much about these personal honors. Compared with those things, he seems to prefer to kill opponents on the court. Find pleasure in the despairing eyes of the other party.

"That's a perverted little lunatic." This is Brito's evaluation of Lin Yi's kid. It is accurate and true, because Lin Yi is such a scary person, although he often wears a smile on his face. A harmless smile.

But no one knows where his deadly knife will come from. When you find that knife, you will probably be down.

Compared with those boring awards, now Lin Yi wants to stretch his body that has rested for more than ten days. Their semi-final against Liverpool is about to begin. For this opponent who has been killed by him three times in a row, Lin Yi wants to give another two knives.

Anyway, Liang Zi had been married long ago, and those Liverpool fans had long regarded Lin Yi as their deadly enemy, and Lin Yi didn't care if the hatred continued to deepen. . .

(Spurs, Lakers, Celtics, it seems that these old teams are going to enter the stage of overthrowing and rebuilding, but compared with the Celtics and Lakers, the future of the Spurs is the most rare, after all, Duncan can play in a team like this. There are not many people in the team who are old...)
