Midfielder.

Chapter 419

Originally wanting to learn from Wigan Athletic and Arsenal's style of play, West Bromwich Albion, who were planning to take one point or even three points from Stamford Bridge, only got five goals that made them helpless.

They obviously forgot that no matter how difficult the first two games were, the final winner was Chelsea.

Even for a team as strong as Arsenal, when facing Chelsea's siege, there will be omissions at the last moment, although their conceded goal at the last moment is indeed a bit of luck.

But don't forget that in those two games, the dominant offense was Chelsea.

Chelsea's win is not news now, but amidst the doubts, they swept away the obscure offense in the first two rounds, and defeated the opponent's defensive system like crazy at home.

It may be that the guys in the first two rounds were so suffocated that they were going crazy, so they started to explode in this round.

It can only be said that the West Bromwich Albion team came at a really bad time. Not only did they run into a group of madmen who were about to go crazy, but they were also on the opponent's territory. This was actually the most troublesome thing for them.

In the shouts of tens of thousands of Chelsea fans, don't expect the terrifying Blues to show mercy to them.

Although West Bromwich Albion is not a strong team, their performance in the first two rounds was not bad. At least in terms of defense, they rarely let their opponents take advantage of it, and they played very stable.

But after Lin Yi's pass played a lullaby for Lampard, Chelsea began to guard the midfield, not eager to eat each other in one bite, they kept looking for a fatal blow in the back and forth.

Stability is stability, but in this stability, there is always a murderous intent, and every pass is purposeful.

Chelsea played so hard in the first two games because they did not open the scoring account for a long time, which gave the opponent a chance to gain a foothold in defense and deal with them, but now everything has changed.

They scored the goal first, and when the opponent's defense was torn apart, don't think that the wound can heal again.

Chelsea's offense will only get more ferocious, putting more pressure on West Bromwich Albion's defense.

Lin Yi's exertion made the game fall to Chelsea's side from the very beginning. They didn't care whether they had an absolute advantage on the scene.

Anyway, since last season, I don't know how many people have criticized their one-to-zero policy.

But Mourinho has long told his players that there is no need to pay attention to those boring voices, one goal can win, there is no need to continue to attack, and the league standings can only record three points.

After two rounds of competition, Mourinho has warned the players more than once in training that there is no need to rush to destroy the opponent, it is enough to grasp the initiative of the game, and there is no need for a desperate impact.

Although the Chelsea team's ability to control the midfield is already very strong, but at this time, there is no need to keep expanding the results for the sake of a good score. It is not necessary to win every time.

This kind of counterattack is what they are best at. What's more, their midfield interception ability has been greatly enhanced now, and they can complete the defensive counterattack without letting the opponent attack their own defense.

Mourinho's temporary change of 3-5-2 also provided enough support for the midfield. Although the back seemed a bit empty, in the midfield, Chelsea's ability to intercept opponents' attacks began to show off.

Lampard and Gerrard have a very wide range of activities behind Drogba, and they can retreat at any time to encircle the opponent's midfielder. Including Drogba, they can counter-rob on the spot.

And guys like Wright Jr. and Robben who are active on the wing can also cause trouble for the opponent's full-back on the two sides. Now Lin Yi can not only pass the ball, but also harass the opponent.

Although this kid's interception skills are still so bad, his sudden tackle can still surprise the opponent's offensive players, not to mention that there is Makelele behind Lin Yi to protect him.

In this game, Mourinho also chose to change his formation for the first time. In the past, Makelele always hovered behind Lin Yi alone. In this game, Mourinho also threw the transfer bid king Essien On the field, with the protection of the defensive midfielders of Essien and Makelele, the interception ability of the midfielder has once again increased.

Needless to say, Makelele's interception ability, even with Keane and Vieira last season, the Frenchman was able to secure the main position of the midfielder in the best team at the end of the season.

Essien, the transfer bid king in the summer, did not live up to his transfer value of almost 500 million pounds. Although his defensive skills in the midfielder position are not as sophisticated as Makelele, his strong body is enough to support him. He stifles those who try to leapfrog him in a Premier League-level confrontation.

Although after two rounds, this is Essien's first appearance in the Premier League, and it is still at Chelsea's home court, but this guy has no stage fright at all, and he is even more active than Makelele.

This is the physical strength of his playing years. Makelele is known as an iron lung. Looking at Essien's running distance and physical condition now, even if Makelele retires now, Chelsea don't have to worry about losing their midfielders.

And when attacking, Essien's ability to insert is obviously better than Makelele's. This guy also has a good long-range shooting skill. Although the team doesn't need him to destroy the city, it can be regarded as a backup. Weapons, maybe they will come in handy at any time, at least they will cause some trouble for the opponent.

Such a combination of double defensive midfielders did not make Chelsea appear to be more defensive. On the contrary, it allowed them to take the complete initiative in the midfield battle, and the oppressive steals made the opponent miserable.

Having such two gates is terrifying enough, and Mourinho also deliberately raised Essien's position a bit, allowing this guy to form protection around Lin Yi as much as possible and give full play to the advantage of interception.

That kid Lin Yi is enough to mix things up. Now there is an extra Essien to help, and Gerrard and Lampard are in front of him. You can imagine how easy this kid is. As for the opponent's midfielder, there is nothing good to do with the ghostly Lin Yi.

The miserable offensive players of the West Bromwich Albion team not only didn't cause any trouble at the beginning, but after conceding a goal, they realized that it was too difficult to attack.

The game has basically entered a vicious circle, that is, Chelsea attacked, failed to score, and was won by West Bromwich Albion players. They could only clear the siege with a big foot, and had no time to organize the attack.

If the defender took a slow step, he might be snatched back by the Chelsea players, but the pass accuracy of such a big-footed clearance in a hurry can be imagined. The ball that was finally cleared will come back in a few seconds.

West Bromwich Albion's midfielder had no chance of possession of the ball at all. Either it was directly cut off by the opponent's press, or it was a mistake in its own pass. Anyway, there was no decent attack.

Throughout the first half, the West Bromwich Albion striker got a chance to shoot. It was because Chelsea fouled and gave the opponent a free kick in the frontcourt, but the shooting distance was more than 30 meters.

Unless West Bromwich Albion can conjure up a Beckham to take the penalty, Cech's ten fingers will not be so easy to break through. Facts have also proved that their penalty players are only suitable for big feet to clear the siege.

This kind of pressing from the midfield now looks not only terrifying, but also desperate.

This layer of defense can completely trap any opponent to death. If Chelsea can score first, then the game will be completely under their control, leaving no way for the opponent to survive.

And this kind of attack launched after counter-robbing on the spot has an astonishingly high success rate. Less than 10 minutes after the first goal, Gerrard scored from outside the penalty area after successfully counter-robbing. .

One to zero is a blow, two to zero is destruction, especially in the face of such a fierce siege by Chelsea, this kind of pressure can easily make people feel collapsed, as is the case with West Bromwich Albion.

The [-]-[-] score in the first half crushed West Bromwich Albion's confidence in continuing to resist at Stamford Bridge.

Even if their coach yelled at his players at halftime with a voice that could be heard clearly through the locker room door, it didn't make these guys shine in the second half.

And after they replaced three players, they didn't improve at all. In the first three 10 minutes of the second half, Lampard and Drogba scored three goals in a row, and the game became a massacre.

Although Lin Yi didn't score a goal, his pass scored a hat-trick of assists in this game. If it wasn't for the help of the opponent's goalpost, this number might have doubled.

Like the fist he swung after the first goal, he was now dealing a blow to those who began to speak ill of Chelsea, and he did so with a mace-like weapon.

With Lin Yi's crazy performance in the midfield, Chelsea couldn't contain it. Losing five goals may be really lucky for West Bromwich Albion. If they are unlucky, they will lose even worse.

It was carnage, and in the last 15 minutes, even Ashley Cole ran into the opponent's box to make fun of a shot and almost went in, but the post saved them.

But in the face of such a crazy attack from Chelsea, you really can't ask West Bromwich Albion to do more, but it is indeed shameful to be scored five goals by the opponent so fiercely.

After the game, the head coach of West Bromwich Albion could only cover up his embarrassment by not playing well and conceding a goal too early, but everyone can see that this game is a standard complete defeat.

There is no reason to look for it, Chelsea just used their quadruple-winning performances to kill their opponents.

And West Bromwich Albion should be thankful that this is not a two-round cup match, they only need to endure the ravages of these nine 10 minutes, and don't have to think about the next meeting.

Even if there is still a chance to meet in the league, it will be after more than a dozen rounds. Now they don't have to worry about the danger of bumping into this group of lunatics in the next game, and the bad luck should be left to others.

As they expected, the Chelsea team, which has already been killed, will not just stop.

In the fourth round of the league, although they played away games, Tottenham, a derby team also in London, still failed to keep their own gate, and was killed by Chelsea at White Hart Lane.

Originally, Tottenham were unbeaten in three rounds at the beginning of the game. Although the record of two wins and one tie was not as impressive as Chelsea's three-game winning streak, they were only two places behind Chelsea in the standings.

Before the start of the White Hart Lane battle, there were even Tottenham fans advocating that we will step on the heads of the four-time champions to top the standings!But the cruel facts finally proved that this was just a delusion.

Although Tottenham's strength has been greatly enhanced after buying Defoe, Davis and England's Robinson on a large scale, they were passive from the beginning when facing Chelsea.

Mourinho did not give the city rivals any chance of controlling the game. Chelsea blasted six shots in the first 15 minutes. Lampard's tackle and Drogba's header in front of the goal scored consecutively.

And in the No. 20 minute of the game, Lin Yi's forced breakthrough in the middle made the defenders of the Tottenham team disarm and surrender directly.

Before Robinson attacked, Lin Yi completed the final attack with a lob shot so light that the England goalkeeper wanted to hit the ground, leaving only a very depressed Robinson in front of the goal.

Even Lampard was a little speechless when he hugged Lin Yi. Although Robinson is an opponent, he is also a guy who has been in the national team for so many days. Seeing him being so wantonly ravaged by Lin Yi, Lampard is really sorry He knew what it would be like if he became Lin Yi's opponent on the field one day.

Thinking about this question really gave chills down the spine. Lampard looked at Robinson's dejected look, but he didn't want to be like that one day. That kid Lin Yi is a devil.

Three lightning goals disrupted all the arrangements of the Tottenham team, and this score was maintained until the end of the game. After four rounds of competition, Chelsea's steel defense remained unbroken.

As many people have said, Chelsea is not at its best now, but it is such a team that is not at its best, but it has already made those opponents in the league scratch their heads.

England's "Daily Telegraph" columnist Hayward said after the game: In the military, this is called an overwhelming force. In close combat, Chelsea has already taken advantage of the force. The sum of the worth of the substitutes on the bench It even reached 7000 million pounds, what else can beat Chelsea?
Natural disaster?Unless the team is destroyed, otherwise it is too difficult to knock them down, it is simply desperate.

Will you lose?No team goes undefeated all the time, but who can knock them down, that's a real question, if they can get back to their best form, are they going to give the fuck away?
It is estimated that this question is not asked by one person, but by the coaches of all Premier League teams.

Tottenham and West Bromwich Albion are really standard unlucky ghosts. They caught up with Chelsea when they most needed victory to boost their spirits. Compared with them, Sunderland was much luckier.

After winning Tottenham [-]-[-], Chelsea's away trip continued, but at the home court of the "Black Cat" Sunderland, they did not play the crazy attack with the same big score as the previous two games.

But the score of [-]-[-] is still enough for them to take the top spot in the standings. They have won all five games. Although this is not as brilliant as last season, this strong momentum makes those competitors frightened.

Moreover, Chelsea did not play with all the main players in this game. Makelele injured his ankle, but Essien replaced him. Duff was also absent due to injury, but Wright Jr. also replaced him as the right winger.

Even Terry and Carvalho on the back line were not included in the big list, but this did not delay Mourinho's formation. The black cats' paws did not have time to scratch Cech this time.

Under the circumstances of Chelsea's personnel rotation, Lin Yi's boy scored a goal in the first and second halves. He, the organizer, seems to be telling others in this way, don't think that I can't score goals!

Just the day before, a few blind-eyed guys commented on the shortlist for the World Footballer of the Year on the column.

They didn't find anything wrong with Lin Yi's organizational skills, but these guys thought it was difficult for Lin Yi to help the team in offense. Except for the goal in the Champions League final, he didn't have many sharp performances.

As a result, one day later, Lin Yi slapped these guys hard with two goals.

When Mourinho saw Lin Yi's vicious performance, he turned his head and said to Brito, "Why don't we let the club spend money to hire a few gunmen to find fault with him in the columns of big newspapers? I found that this kid likes to compete with those people, and every time he is picked on, he will explode."

Of course, Lin Yi wouldn't hear these words, but the YD smile on Britto's face was indeed sneaky, and Mourinho's expression was quite serious, alas, these two guys.

Five consecutive victories, when Chelsea monopolized the top spot with such a record, the criticism disappeared automatically.

Is there a crazy helmsman desperately stepping on the accelerator of the blue chariot, hoping that this group of bloodthirsty guys will take the initiative to put down their butcher knives?It is estimated that even if God came in person, he would not be able to deal with these lunatics.

Arsenal and Tottenham have already fallen, and now Manchester United, led by Ferguson, does not know whether they can put a brake on this crazy blue chariot, but judging by the current situation, this problem is very troublesome.

With a record of five consecutive victories, Chelsea is at the top of the Premier League standings, and now Mourinho not only wants to defend the Premier League title, but his ambition also includes winning the trophy again in the Champions League.

Now there is no team that can successfully defend the Champions League after the restructuring, but Mourinho and his Chelsea team have never believed in evil, especially that kid Lin Yi, who enjoys the thrill of breaking certain records, No one has ever been able to defend?Sorry, that was once, it doesn't mean forever.

Chelsea not only want to defend the title in the third line, they also want to win more championships. This is the era of the Chelsea dynasty!No one can stop this group of dangerous elements in blue uniforms. . .

(Neymar's performance in the America's Cup is not bad, but he always feels that he lacks the ability to hit the goal. I don't know why...)
