Chapter 448 Mourinho Can't Beat Zhang Yang
Wales, Cardiff, Millennium Stadium.

The League Cup final between Millwall and Chelsea has officially started, and both sides can be said to have sent a 'semi-main' lineup to play.

For Millwall, Pires, Quaresma, and Braniff all had a round of rest. Among them, Pires didn't even make the squad and just sat in the audience stands, probably hoping to celebrate the championship with the team.

The starting forward was also replaced by Jamie Vardy, and the adjustment of the back line was not major, but considering strengthening the wing offensive, Zhang Yang still chose to send Konchesky.

Chelsea's starting lineup has also changed.

In addition to the injured players, the most prominent is that the striker became Shevchenko, and Drogba did not play for the team.

This adjustment is still relatively large.

At the beginning of the season, Shevchenko played more games, but as time passed, Mourinho became more and more intolerable to Shevchenko. Coupled with the injury in the middle, the chance of the latter starting It is much less.

Until this game, Drogba had just participated in the Champions League battle, and the consecutive games also caused the Ivorian to encounter a physical crisis, and Shevchenko had the opportunity to play as a center forward.

Although there is not much preparation for the game, both sides still attach great importance to the game.

No matter how tasteless the League Cup is, it is also a cup championship.

This season, Millwall won the Community Shield. Zhang Yang hopes that the team can win the second championship. The League Cup has been played to this level, and it is an old opponent. Mourinho will definitely let Chelsea Give your all.

The tactics of the two sides are the same as in the Champions League game, basically no adjustments have been made.

So a head-on confrontation was officially launched.

It can be seen from the beginning of the game that Chelsea played very "desperately", yes, desperately, it is not an exaggeration to use this word to describe it.

Millwall can be said to be Chelsea's "life and death enemy". In the past two seasons, it has been Chelsea's biggest competitor. The most embarrassing thing is that when Chelsea have not defeated Millwall so far, their results against Millwall The disadvantage is extremely obvious.

When Chelsea met Millwall, the media's comments were tragic. Many media even thought, "Millwall is more likely to win."

That's not professional analysis, but 'various' personal opinions.

This is the change in public opinion.

The basis of various 'personal opinions' is not Chelsea's strength and performance, but Mourinho has always been at a disadvantage against Zhang Yang, but he cannot beat Millwall. From the perspective of Chelsea players, that is against them Humiliated, they must go all out to beat Millwall, not just the temptation of the championship, defeating Millwall to prove it is more meaningful than the cup championship.

Many Chelsea think so, and the desperate energy of Chelsea players can be imagined when they put into the game.

Chelsea knows Millwall very well. They don't need to prepare before the game. They know that Millwall will play the so-called 'dual-core' style of play, and only the 'dual-core' style of play that controls the midfield can be against Chelsea's 'three-core' style of play. midfielder', otherwise the situation will become very passive.

Millwall's style of play actually has no advantage against Chelsea.

As most people understand, Chelsea has three defensive midfielders and a 443 formation with full attack and full defense. It is very effective in controlling the midfield. The full-court press will also make it more difficult for Millwall to cooperate.

The Chelsea players knew what to do, all they needed was to be involved in the pressing.

As long as Millwall has the ball, they will keep running and create pressure. No matter how good the cooperation is, they are afraid of being forced. Coupled with their defensive advantages, it is easy for them to play an advantageous situation.

However, the Chelsea players probably forgot that the main reason for their loss was not the 'game situation', but Millwall's higher efficiency in front of goal.

It was clearly reflected in the game.

In the first three and 10 minutes of the first half, Chelsea took advantage of the situation and took the initiative to compete for the midfielder. They had more attacks and more shooting opportunities than Millwall.

But... Maybe Shevchenko didn't bring his shooting boots.

Three and 10 minutes passed, and the Chelsea team continued to play Shevchenko. Shevchenko had four shots, three of which were not within the range of the goal frame. Mu easily received it in his arms.

Shevchenko alone accounted for half of the shooting opportunities. Other Chelsea players, such as Lampard, just took a long shot from the outside and did not directly threaten the goal.

Millwall was different.

Millwall had fewer attacks and fewer shots, but the occasional two shots made Chelsea feel directly threatened.

Millwall's shooting points were mainly concentrated in the middle. Simpson and Vardy kicked twice each, and Smicer also had a shot. Three of the five shots hit the goal frame.

Such an efficiency gap made Mourinho very worried about the game.

Recently, Mourinho's 'living' has not been good, and there are no problems within the team, but because the league can only rank third, Abramovich is extremely dissatisfied with him, and the chairman is only dissatisfied. The rest of the club also began to 'challenge' him.

Peter Kenyon is one.

As the CEO of Chelsea, Peter Kenyon has always been one of the "Big Three" of Chelsea, and he is equal to Mourinho. Because of the rapid development of the club's peripheral business, the commercial income of the Chelsea club continues to rise. Peter Kenyon It has also gained the trust of Abramovich. In the current Chelsea club, Mourinho can't get involved in the operation department at all. If he can continue to coach next season, perhaps his authority in transfers will be affected.

Peter Kenyon is fine.

Chelsea also has a black manager who is in charge of youth training. This black manager has the trust of Abramovich to poach young talents for Chelsea.

In January after Christmas, Mourinho got into an argument with the opposition, who wanted the Cypriot to enter the first team, but Mourinho did not like young players who 'needed development'.

There is a direct conflict between the two sides.

Perhaps it is also a contradiction in the position of running the club. Mourinho is the coach of the club. He hopes that the first team will be full of players who can play, and there will be no young players who 'need training'.

This will make the team's performance more stable.

The director of youth training, including the CEO in charge of the club’s development, doesn’t see it that way. Whether it’s a wealthy club or a small club, the youth training system is still very important. Cultivate your own players and put them into the first team to practice slowly. It will be the future of the club.

This is the way of long-term development.

At present, in the Chelsea team, most of the players from the youth training have left, and the only remaining 'top card' is John Terry. In order to make the first team comply with the FA regulations, Chelsea have to report some 'make up' players , in the eyes of the coaches in charge of youth training, it is naturally a bit wasteful, and it is tantamount to denying their work results.

These are contradictions.

In fact, the root of the problem lies in the results of leading the team. Mourinho's results in leading the team cannot satisfy Abramovich. Worked longer than Mourinho.

Under such a working environment, Mourinho must guarantee results, but just like Millwall was unable to prepare for the League Cup, Chelsea also encountered the same problem, and the situation was even worse. They did not even have time to adjust their mentality Needless to say, adjusting the state, I flew to Cardiff just after the battle with Porto, and there was no time to make any preparations.

Mourinho can only let Shevchenko play, hoping that the Ukrainian nuclear warhead can have a good state.

Now, he is disappointed.

Seeing that the attacks failed one after another, and the opponent's fewer attacks created a greater threat, Mourinho had an urge to replace, "Replace Sheva! Let..."

Mourinho turned his head and glanced at the bench, hesitating whether to let Drogba play.

Millwall has not waited for Mourinho to make a decision.

In the 307th minute of the game, Chelsea's goal was officially announced as a loss. Just before the goal, the "Sky Sports" commentator also said, "It was difficult to score in the first half. The fight between the two sides seemed fierce. But they all pay attention to defense. It seems that if you want to score goals, you still have to wait until the second half..."

Then Millwall scored.

This is a shot from Simpson. Smicer kicked the ball before and gave Vardy a header, but Vardy missed it. The football hit Terry and bounced out. Simpson followed up and finished. volley.

"The Simpsons! The Simpsons!"

The "Sky Sports" commentator shouted, "Taking advantage of the chaos in the penalty area, Simpson followed up and kicked the ball into the net! This young Canadian midfielder helped Millwall break the deadlock and showed exquisite footwork!"

"Just two days ago, Simpson just scored for Millwall at the Bernabeu Stadium. It was a wonderful direct free kick, and now Simpson has completed the key shot again!"

"Millwall leads Chelsea 1-0!"

"Perhaps just by analyzing it with many people, Zhang Yang seems to be Mourinho's nemesis. Whenever they meet Millwall, Chelsea loses their performance..."

"..."

Chelsea fans are hurt.

Chelsea fans came to Cardiff hoping to see the team beat Millwall to win the League Cup, but many people were not optimistic about Chelsea before the game. They were very angry about this and hoped that Chelsea could perform. The ball, the fans were very disappointed --
Could it be that Chelsea really can't beat Millwall?
Do not!
Chelsea fans hope that 'Mourinho can't beat Zhang Yang'!
That's it.

Many Chelsea fans thought of the report that Abramovich praised Zhang Yang before the game. They looked at the Millwall coaching bench and thought of the scene of "Zhang Yang becoming the Chelsea coach", "It must be better than Mourinho as the manager." Is the coach much better?"
