510: Falling behind by 11 points and still being able to come back and win the championship

It's over. Crystal Palace defeated Chelsea, which everyone was optimistic about before the game, 4-2 at its home stadium, Tongyi Stadium, and scored a very important three points.

This three-pointer can let London know who is the king of London now.

After the game, Chelsea fans left early.

Obviously the result of this game made them very disappointed.

Conte stayed on the sidelines and refused to leave for a long time.

Maybe at this time, he still couldn't accept this bad ending.

In his opinion, Chelsea should have won this game, especially after seeing the first half.

In the first half of the game, Chelsea had a lot of opportunities. Unfortunately, Lukaku did not seize the opportunity and was completely beaten by Van Dijk.

If this guy Lukaku can be a little bit stronger, this game will not be the bad result it is now.

Damn Lukaku!

If... if Batshuayi is allowed to start, will it be a different ending?

In this game, Batshuayi performed well after coming off the bench and scored a goal. It seems that he performed much better than Lukaku. If Batshuayi had played early in the game and there were so many chances in the first half, he would have scored, right?

It's a pity, why did Lukaku be chosen as the starter at that time?

regret!

Conte really regrets it.

Looking at the Crystal Palace players celebrating their victory crazily in the stadium, Conte sighed silently, then turned around and left.

This game is too fatal for Chelsea!

Even this hit Conte's confidence.

This season's Premier League champion may not have much to do with Chelsea!

Although the Premier League has only reached its eighth round, there are still thirty rounds to come. But Chelsea are currently 11 points behind Crystal Palace at the top of the league. This gap is really too big. Can they catch up? He himself lacks confidence.

That's why Conte's mood was so complicated after this game.

Originally this season, Conte was full of expectations and confidence. After all, their lineup has improved a lot this season, they have invested a lot, and achieved good results. Chelsea will definitely be even more powerful than last season. They were runners-up in the Premier League last season, so they have to be the Premier League champions this season, right?

But, what now?

Bitter!

Conte left the scene in confusion.

On the other side, Tong Yi was quite excited. This result was really the best result. To be honest, he thought Crystal Palace was going to lose this game. Chelsea did create a lot of opportunities in the first half, and Lukaku also frequently threatened the Crystal Palace goal.

Fortunately, Crystal Palace's defensive players performed well.

Especially Van Dijk and Upamecano, these two blocked Lukaku. This was the key to Crystal Palace's victory in this game.

After winning this game, the pressure on Tong Yi was much lighter. At least under the current circumstances, Crystal Palace temporarily lost a competitor.

Chelsea has been temporarily kicked out of the first group, which is the championship group.

Chelsea's current points score is indeed quite far behind. Of course, Chelsea still has a chance. It all depends on Chelsea's performance next.

Tong Yi hugged the Crystal Palace players one by one and thanked them for their efforts in this game.

The victory in this game is a victory for the Crystal Palace players. Without their hard work on the court, there would be no victory in today's game.

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene also gave thunderous applause to the Crystal Palace players to thank them for their efforts.

The result of this game was beyond the expectations of many media reporters, so they had many questions at the post-game press conference.

Conte said this: "This was a bad game. We should not have lost this game. But because of my problem, the formation problem led to the defeat of this game. This is my problem." We will make good adjustments next. The league is still very long. Although our current situation is not very good, I am still confident that we can bring Chelsea out of the quagmire. Our goals for Chelsea this season are still not very good. It will change and that will be the league championship."

At this time, Conte really needs to give Chelsea players more confidence.

When he just returned to the locker room, Conte also realized that there was something wrong with his confidence, and he immediately adjusted his mentality in a very short period of time.

As the head coach of Chelsea and the helm of the club, if he loses confidence, then Chelsea's season will be completely over. The Premier League has just begun this season. It’s a bit unreasonable that it’s going badly at this time, right? After all, this is not the NBA. After a bad season, you can still get the No. 1 pick in the draft, sign a future top core, and fight again next year.

Therefore, Conte adjusted his confidence in time.

And he also knows very well that his own confidence has been shattered. What about the Chelsea players? It's definitely worse.

Therefore, he not only needs to adjust his mentality, but also rebuild the confidence of Chelsea's players.

The league has just begun, and there are opportunities for everyone.

And being 11 points behind is not irreversible.

After all, there are many cases of coming back from being behind by more than 10 points in the Premier League to win the championship!

After all, in the 1997-1998 season, in the second season of coaching Arsenal, they were once 14 points behind Manchester United in the league, and

It was still in the second half of the league season. Almost everyone thought that Arsenal had no chance of winning the championship. Who knew that in the end Arsenal actually reversed Manchester United and won the Premier League championship that season.

In the 2002-2003 season, Arsenal was in the limelight. In that season, gun king Henry even contributed 20+ goals and assists, and at one time they were 14 points ahead of Manchester United. However, Manchester United worked hard in the second half of this season and scored 14 wins, 3 draws, and 45 points. They successfully reversed Arsenal's 5 points and won the championship that season. At the same time, it also avenged the reversal of the 1997-1998 season.

Also, in the 1995-1996 season, Kevin Keegan led the Magpie Newcastle United to a very eye-catching performance. After half-way, they led Manchester United by 16 points, which completely wiped out Manchester United's hope of winning the championship. However, Sir Alex Ferguson led Manchester United to complete a shocking reversal in the last 15 rounds. Manchester United scored 40 points with 13 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, while Newcastle United only scored 24 points with 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. Let Manchester United complete the amazing miracle of reversing 16 points to win the championship.

When thinking about the ups and downs of the past seasons, Conte also felt warm.

These teams can complete amazing comebacks, why can't we Chelsea?

And currently, Chelsea has an advantage over these teams. After all, the league has just begun this season, and there are still 30 rounds of games for them to charge and earn points. Moreover, Chelsea are very strong. As long as they believe that they can exert their strongest strength, they are absolutely capable of completing the reversal.

The 11-point gap is really not an insurmountable chasm.

Therefore, at this time, Conte wants to give Chelsea players confidence in football, so that they will not give up on themselves and eliminate themselves at this time.

The league has just begun and the season is still very long. We at Chelsea have plenty of opportunities.

Conte continued to face reporters: "Of course, I also know that the current situation is not ideal for us at Chelsea. Crystal Palace's results are so good. We are already 11 points behind them. This gap is astonishing. . But I believe that as long as we Chelsea people don’t give up, we will still have a chance. Because we at Chelsea are very strong, we can create any miracle!"

Many reporters in the media are pouting, "That's what you say, right?"

If Chelsea were really strong, would you lose to Crystal Palace in this game?

Even Webster looks down on Chelsea.

He originally regarded Chelsea as the biggest target to intercept Crystal Palace this season, but he didn't know that this game turned out like this, which made him feel that Chelsea was not good enough. It seems that only the Manchester duo can steal the Crystal Palace championship, especially Manchester City.

Conte didn't pay attention to the looks of these media reporters. He continued, "The Crystal Palace players in this game

They performed very well, their form was outstanding, and they really continued their amazing form last season. Therefore, I think Crystal Palace is indeed the favorite to win the championship this season. However, we still discovered many of their problems and weaknesses from this game. If it weren't for our Lukaku's poor condition, Chelsea would definitely win today's game. "

As soon as he said this, Conte's expression turned bad.

To be honest, Lukaku really made him very dissatisfied today, not only his performance was very poor, but also his damn performance after being replaced. This is simply exposing the internal conflicts of the Chelsea team to the public, and it is simply starting a war with him as the head coach!

To be honest, Conte really hates Lukaku now.

This guy Lukaku is simply putting Conte and Chelsea on the stove to roast.

After the game, I wonder how these media reporters and fans will arrange their Chelsea? This guy Lukaku will really cause trouble for Chelsea.

When Conte said this, the media reporters gave a rare nod.

In their view, Chelsea did lose this game to Lukaku. If Lukaku had performed more normally in the first half and seized the opportunity, the result of this game would not be what it is now.

What’s even more ridiculous is that this guy Lukaku even shouted like crazy before the game. This really made me laugh to death.

Are you worthy of being compared with Crystal Palace's centre-forward?

In this game, Crystal Palace center Ronaldo scored a hat trick, but what about you, Lukaku?

You, Lukaku, were guarded by Van Dijk so that you had no temper at all. It was as if you were guarding against a child.

Is Lukaku still arrogant at this time?

It is true that many media reporters think that Lukaku is really a man with a high heart and a thin life. And since this guy left Crystal Palace, he has not put much experience into the game and improving himself. More energy is put into chatting, and now he has become the strongest chattering king in the Premier League.

This really makes many people sigh.

After all, Lukaku's talent is still very strong. However, this guy’s life is a bit unflattering. This guy has played for Crystal Palace, Manchester United, Everton and Chelsea only in England. However, after he left, every team has a relationship with him. There is never a peaceful breakup despite more or less conflicts and grievances.

All media reporters believe that if Lukaku leaves Chelsea again, there may not be many teams that want to take over for him, right? After all, not every team is willing to introduce a thorn in the side and plant a time bomb in their team's locker room.

Look, Lukaku has just moved to Chelsea, and he has such a big conflict with Chelsea's head coach Conte. This is really not worrying at all.
