Midfielder.

Chapter 467

Arrogant and arrogant, it is estimated that using these words to describe Mourinho's behavior is not too much at all. Maybe this guy was like this before, but this time his approach is more direct.

Because Mourinho's current starting lineup is simply slapping all the Catalans in the face, and it's face to face, merciless at all, and slapping them in the face with all their strength.

If it was Lin Yi who used the championship trophy to stimulate the hearts of Barcelona fans during the warm-up just now, then when the starting list was placed in front of everyone, the Catalans were already completely angry. That former old acquaintance was severely despised once.

Many Barcelona fans have thrown their drinks over in the stands behind Chelsea. While throwing debris, they are angrily cursing at Mourinho, "You idiot! Do you think Can such a lineup survive the Camp Nou?"

"You will see how you are punished for defying the great Barcelona team! Stupid!"

It is estimated that even the Real Madrid team has not received such a courtesy, but Mourinho did it today.

Against all Barcelona fans, it is estimated that only this guy can have such crazy courage.

But in the face of such a noisy environment, Mourinho was able to be as stable as Mount Tai, and ignored it.

Even the drink bottles and sundries that were smashed on the Chelsea bench, he could not take a look, and he was still in the mood to protest with the fourth official, but judging by the expression on this guy, he didn't care at all.

"It's not the first time he has encountered such a scene, and he has been used to it for a long time." Now that Brito looks at Mourinho's appearance, he is a little relieved, otherwise it might not be him.

However, Mourinho's tactical arrangement has indeed made many people not used to it, and even confused.

What is this doing?Don't use your absolute main force?Is this Mourinho's choice?Does he think he can kill the Barcelona team without exerting all his strength?What a smug guy that was!

Even the host in charge of the on-site commentary was a little dazed when he saw the list, because he didn't expect Mourinho to play such a trick at the Nou Camp. Could it be that this guy is provoking everyone?

Not only the on-site commentary was stunned, but now even the reporters on the sidelines looked confused, including those English reporters who didn't know how to evaluate this lineup. Could it be that they were really contemptuous?
Chelsea are very strong now, but they have not yet reached the state where they can look down on everyone.

Even with the most optimistic analysis of those English reporters before the game, these two confrontations were just five or five waves. After all, Barcelona is also in a very hot state now, and it is impossible for Chelsea to complete a home and away double play.

Perhaps like last season, it is the most correct tactic to hold off the opponent as much as possible in the away game, and then solve the problem at home. It's just that such a lineup, no matter how you look at it, Mourinho is too arrogant.

It was unexpected enough that Lin Yi didn't play, but Mourinho didn't seem to take it seriously at all, because not only did he not let Lin Yi enter the starting lineup, Robben also did not enter the starting lineup, although the two Everyone sits on the bench, but the bench and starting are obviously two different things.

Even if they can play at any time, once the momentum is suppressed by the opponent, it will definitely be bad.

At that time, even if Lin Yi's kid has superhuman abilities, he will not be able to save the battle by himself.

Doesn't Mourinho know such a simple truth?What is he thinking right now?
The reporters, including those familiar with Mourinho and Chelsea, were a little confused this time, because they couldn't figure out what Mourinho was going to do. After all, Lin Yi's ability was there, and it was irreplaceable.

If there is no interference from injuries, Lin Yi has always been Chelsea's first choice for offense. It has been like this since last season. Everyone is used to him starting, and everyone is counting on him to shine in this game.

After all, no matter how hyped the confrontation was before the match, the confrontation between Ronaldinho and Lin Yi was always the focus of the entire match, and many people were waiting to see the first two World Footballer of the Year collide.

It would also allow all the previous rumors about the selection to be verified, and it would also be possible to tell who is stronger. Many Chelsea fans are also waiting to see how Lin Yi can defeat the buck-toothed man.

But Mourinho threw Lin Yi onto the bench in such an unexpected way, and looking at the expressions of these two guys, it seems that they have been prepared for such an arrangement, and they have no expression at all. The mood is joking with Robben beside him, all this seems too weird!

You know, usually as long as this kid can't play a game, he will feel uncomfortable all over.

But for such a big scene, he sat quietly and watched without any depression?

All of this revealed a bit of weirdness. Some people even speculated whether there was some conflict between Lin Yi and Mourinho, which is why he was hidden. Could it be that there was internal strife in the Chelsea team?

But this idea was rejected by most people. If it was hidden by the snow, Lin Yi would not have this expression.

And Mourinho turned around and said something to Lin Yi just now, it doesn't look like internal strife anymore.

It's just that letting one's main core sit off the field in this way really makes many people unable to adapt.

But after being shocked, both Rijkaard and the media reporters were studying Chelsea's starting list. He really wanted to take a good look at what Mourinho was going to do!
In Chelsea's starting lineup, the goalkeeper is still the stable Cech as usual, and the central defender partners in front of him are still Carvalho and Terry, which has not changed from the two games of last season.

The two full-backs Mourinho used Bosingwa and Ashley Cole respectively. Ferreira's recent state is very bad. It can be seen that Mourinho will not take risks easily in this game , That's why he chose the more stable Bosingwa. It seems that these two full-backs will not have too many assists.

Lin Yi and Robben are missing in the midfield, but Gerrard and Lampard are still there, but on the wing this time Mourinho replaced Robben with Maniche, and Makelele is still the midfielder, but Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Gerrard's position is also closer to Makelele, which can form a double midfielder.

Although Lampard and Gerrard are still starting, but now they do not have the support of Lin Yi, no one knows how explosive these two cannons can be, at least the firepower will definitely be weakened.

Duff on the right side is starting, but without the impact of Robben, can Duff break through the Barcelona team's blockade?Maybe even those English media who have always supported Chelsea are not optimistic this time. They are a little bit confused about what Mourinho is doing.

If Lin Yi didn't go up, the two wings that usually work together gave up this time?So what's left of Chelsea?
Forward line Mourinho is rare this time to line up a double forward, but without the support of Lin Yi in the midfield, can Anelka and Drogba alone kill Barcelona?Even if the opponent is stronger offensively than defensively, relying on such an offensive lineup really cannot reassure Chelsea fans.

The double striker combination of Anelka and Drogba also needs to rely on the support of the midfield. After playing for half a season, let Lampard go back to the work of organizing the midfield?This is not a joke, is it?
It's not that Lampard is ineffective, but compared with his organizational ability, his shooting is more reliable.

But Mourinho is standing on the sidelines at the moment, whispering to Terry and Lampard, not caring about the surrounding broadcast cameras and the fans' eyes already locked on him, maybe for him, such a The change seemed to have been in his plan long ago, so there was nothing surprising about it.

As for how other people react, that's their business, it has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't care.

And the Chelsea team members didn't seem to have any surprised expressions, everything was prepared step by step, although the boos and curses from the stands were more fierce than when they were warming up, but now it seems that this group of animals They don't seem to be affected by the away game.

As for the ferocious shouting and booing in the stands, including cursing, these animals can automatically filter it.

Anyway, everyone knows that these Catalans don't like Chelsea, or even hate them.

However, many English media are a little panicked now, especially Sky TV, which is responsible for broadcasting the game. Lineker and veteran commentator Andy Gray, who are sitting in their guest seats, are all confused at the moment. For the first time, Lin Yi was not seen in an important game.

"Andy, what do you think of Chelsea's starting line-up, anyway, my mind is already in a mess, I don't know what Mourinho is thinking, but put Lin Yi on the bench, no matter he is Regardless of the tactical considerations, I think this is a very puzzling move."

Lineker has recently turned into Lin Yi's biggest supporter, and seeing Lin Yi's absence from such an important matchup, apart from being a little surprised, he was also a little bit disappointed and more confused.

After all, with this kid in the game, people can always see miracles happen. Watching that kid play football is simply a kind of enjoyment, but in this crucial matchup, Lin Yi unexpectedly did not play!

Andy Gray was also a little stunned. Usually this guy is the most slick, but now he can only look at the list speechlessly. After a pause for a few seconds, he can only hold back Scalp responded to the question, "Maybe, uh, maybe Chelsea are thinking about defense."

It is estimated that there is only one reason why Mourinho does not use Lin Yi and Robben. You must know that these two guys have always been the new force of Chelsea's attack in the game against Barcelona last season. The desperate impact may not win the game at all.

Everyone knows that Lin Yi is Chelsea's brain, how can he play without a brain this time?
Although Chelsea's current starting lineup is also luxurious, it is like a big dish missing a little important condiment. The Chelsea team without Lin Yi will always feel a little worse. There is really no other reason to take extra points.

But want to score points by defending against the No. [-] attacking force in Europe?It is understandable if others have such naive thoughts, but Mourinho is a madman who won five championships last season.

Would he make such a common-sense mistake?Or does this guy really want to score points on the road?
Wouldn't it be like those Spanish reporters said?Mourinho is now a man who can't afford to lose?
In order to ensure that your team can advance and admit to giving up offense, do you have to keep a point in the away game?

"Maybe Mourinho thinks that Chelsea should not fight hard against each other in the away game. After all, this is an away game. Maybe zero to zero is an acceptable result for him. After all, Chelsea have not lost at Stamford Bridge this season. It is also an option to deal with the opponent when we return to the home court."

Andy Gray can only interpret Mourinho's tactical arrangements in this way. He said this in a subtle way. If he followed his usual style, he might directly reprimand that cowardly guy. It was because he was afraid of losing in an away game that he chose such a wretched tactic!
Double defensive midfielder, no wing attack!Even if there are two forwards, what can they do?With Drogba and Anelka dropping into midfield to help you defend?Then this is really an unconventional tactical choice!

But this tactic of shrinking and defending has gone against Chelsea's recent offensive style of play!
What an idiotic decision to change the habit before the war started!However, as England's commentators, Andy Gray and Lineker really couldn't turn back before the game started, but such a conservative tactical arrangement may make Mourinho pay the price.

Unlike the confusion of the Englishman, when Ten Carter saw Chelsea's starting roster, he already had a look of contempt and disdain, "That guy just wants to score points here by defending. Just like last season, he kept a draw away. Then wait until they get back to London and finish us off at Stamford Bridge."

Although Ten Carter's tone already reveals a kind of contempt, what he said represents the general opinion of Catalans, because Chelsea's lineup does not look like they are planning to win away games. With a defensive midfielder and four backs, even the full-backs may be involved in defense.

If this lineup is not intended to keep a tie away, then there is really no explanation.

As Ten Carter said, Mourinho obviously intends to stick to the Nou Camp by doing this.

It's just that Rijkaard is still a little apprehensive looking at Chelsea's substitute lineup.

After all, Robben and Lin Yi are both sitting off the court, and they may run up at any time. Rijkaard also needs to consider this potential fatal threat, but before going on the court, Rijkaard is still very concerned about all of them. The team members said, "This is our home field, here, kill them!"

Although "Black Swan" is a very rational person, under the instigation of Mourinho, a feeling of being ignored or even contempt is slowly growing invisibly, and it is very easy to make people angry.

There is nothing to say. Since the opponent chooses to defend, the Barcelona team will use offense to defeat the opponent. This is the character of the Catalans. Facing any team, they will attack with all their might. Do you want to defend?Let's see if you still have the good luck to keep the tie this season!
Barcelona can be said to be the best. Goalkeeper Valdes, defender Oleg, Marcos, Puyol, Sylvinho, and Rijkaard threw all the guys who could play.

The midfielder is Harvey, Iniesta plus Deco, this kind of midfield combination is for full attack.

The air defense ability of the three little guys is not strong enough, but if it is better than the feet, they are definitely strong enough.

This lineup arrangement is to break the dense defense. The interspersed and organizational skills of the three of them are enough to ensure that Barcelona's midfielder can play a genius attack. This is simply a three-core.

Originally, Rijkaard wanted Motta and Edmilson to start at one point, but in the end the idea of ​​scoring points at home still prevailed. If Barcelona played too steadily at home, the fans might not agree, so after weighing After repeated attempts, Rijkaard finally chose this midfield combination.

As for Ronaldinho and Eto'o on the front line, they are the regular candidates who must start. However, in the choice of the third attacker, Rijkaard finally let the young Messi enter the starting lineup, and Larson But sitting on the bench, between experience and impact, the young Messi has the upper hand.

"Use your breakthrough ability to cause trouble for the opponent. Don't care about mistakes. What we want is to score. This is your first trip to the Champions League. Enjoy every minute of the game at the Nou Camp."

Rijkaard also fully affirmed this budding Argentine kid.

Although he can't be expected to carry Barcelona's offense alone, his presence will definitely bring something different to the team's offensive line. I hope this kid can be the same as that crazy Lin Yi.

Let yourself land in the Champions League for the first time, and bring the luck of the championship to Barcelona. May everything come true.

Attack, attack!Let those Brits know how good we are!This kind of wild shouting almost ignited the entire Camp Nou stadium, especially at the moment when the Barcelona players came out of the player tunnel, the crazy shouting of the Catalans made everyone feel excited move.

In the face of such a crazy atmosphere, Chelsea seemed very quiet. From the players on the field to the substitutes off the field, everyone including Mourinho was watching all this calmly.

Go crazy, make your anger even crazier, only those who lose their cool will be counted.

Mourinho needs the always wise "black swan" to become wilder.

But what awaits the Catalans now is a big net that has slowly opened. . .
