Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 329 Surprise and Heart Test
After staying in Kenny Park for a while, Wang Li left there, went to the underground car park on King's Road and drove towards Stamford Bridge.

Wang Li still had no idea about the Christmas gift for Ellis. He thought it would be better to go back and ask Angela on the phone. Girls always know better than men in this regard, and he is expected to Going around in this kind of commercial district will obviously not get any results.

On the way home, Wang Li remembered that there seemed to be nothing to eat at home. He was a little helpless. When he was alone, he always liked to go out to eat, and he didn’t know how to cook in the kitchen. He didn't think much of it, but he felt a little bored as soon as he was on vacation. Now he regretted resigning from the nanny Diana. Although the woman was a bit old and not very good-looking, the steak she cooked was still delicious.

In desperation, Wang Li turned the car around and went back to the urban area to buy some bread, biscuits, sausages and other food to enrich the kitchen and refrigerator. I can eat whatever I want.

After parking the car, the first thing Wang Li did when he got home was to practice the Little Formless Kung Fu while lying on the bed. Perhaps now, his internal kung fu has reached a certain level, and the effect of practicing kung fu is negligible. But as long as he has a little time in his busy schedule, he still chooses to practice. This may have become an instinctive habit.

However, this practice didn't last long. He had just sat on the bed when he heard the doorbell ring.

Wang Li stood up suspiciously, put on his clothes and walked towards the door. In his opinion, no one should disturb him at this time, and his teammates or father would definitely call him if they came.

Standing in front of the door, Wang Li looked through the cat's eyes and found that it was dark outside, as if blocked.

Confused, he had already opened the door.

When he opened the door, what he saw standing in front of him was an English girl in a dress. She stood there looking tenderly, holding a satchel in her hand——
"Annie?!" Wang Li reacted and exclaimed in surprise.

At this moment, standing in front of him was Angela, his long-cherished girlfriend, who was always looking at Wang Li with a warm smile on her face.

Looking at the beauty in front of him, Wang Li couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes hard, and said again as if to confirm: "Annie, it's really you!?",

"No, this is your gift, Merry Christmas." Angela threw herself into Wang Li's arms, touched his neck with both hands, and moved her mouth.

After a long kiss, the two had walked into the room and sat on the sofa. Wang Li said in a daze, "Aren't you coming back tomorrow?"

Angela was in his arms, lying on his lap with her whole body wrapped around his waist, and said lazily, "I just want to surprise you."

"Honey, I'm really...surprised."

After Wang Li finished speaking, he thought of something, so he hurriedly pulled Angela into the room.

Because of Wang Li's "violent incident" in the villa last time, they were directly sued by Chelsea. Although the result has not yet come out, they know the consequences of publishing some fake news as a media with great influence in England. Not good at all.

And the "victim" has long been out of the hospital, and the results of his appeal have been ignored.

British law attaches great importance to the protection of personal property. Even if you are directly shot to death for 'breaking into a private house', it will depend on the situation, and it may be considered as self-defense. Therefore, York Sunderland not only did not get any belongings to him. and he was directly fired by the Guardian, and he was attacked by many 'Ai Fans'...

Of course, the "Guardian" will not stop there. They have many reporters watching Wang Li's villa every day, trying to find some news that is unfavorable to Wang Li.

Therefore, there have been more paparazzi 'secretly' appearing around Wang Li's villa recently...

.........

After being tired of being with Angela for a day, the two went to Ellis's house to spend a pleasant afternoon together. Before Wang Li came home, the family had a reunion Christmas.

However, of course, life will not be like this forever. On the day before Christmas, Wang Li still went to Chelsea Club to report. Around 10:2 in the morning, the players gathered together and flew to Doha, where they will conduct a two-day tour. train.

This is the first time for Wang Li to come to Doha. In the severe cold of England in December, it is very warm here, bathed in the sun, and even makes him feel lazy, so he is in a good mood. Ideal for training.

When interviewed by reporters after training, he jokingly said: "It's very nice and comfortable here. I think this Christmas is not bad. At least I can enjoy the warmth."

"The weather in England is really not very good, and the team's schedule is also very intensive. I always wonder why people don't have a rest at Christmas!?"

In fact, the reason why the schedule of the Premier League is so dense is because of the planning of the FA. Around Christmas, almost all league games are suspended, and only the Premier League has games. Even during this period, they will organize Some exciting games will increase the attention of the audience, so as to attract the attention of fans all over the world.

In this way, the ratings of the Premier League will be high and the league will be more popular. Of course, they will not consider clubs and players, which obviously have nothing to do with them. At the same time, this also makes every Premier League team, in the second half of the schedule The performance will not be very good, and the injury problem is in front of all the Premier League teams.

Fortunately, Chelsea's treatment is not bad. During this period of time, they can still come to the warm Doha for training, which is a kind of enjoyment for many players.

"My experience tells me that at the end of the year, the players are still playing every Saturday and Wednesday, the players will be very tired, and it is also very difficult to play in such cold weather, so I think there should be a winter break in December. period.” Mourinho, who was enjoying the sunshine in Doha, did not forget to criticize the busy schedule of the Premier League. Facing the reporter’s interview, he continued: “During the winter break, players can heal their injuries and improve their competitive status. , The coach's tense nerves also need a short rest."
"We need to pay attention to the players' bodies. This is the most important thing. I think the training in England is meaningless now. It will make the players feel tired and even cause more injuries. We While participating in the game, you should also pay attention to the physical health of the players, which is the most basic condition for developing a football career."

After that, Mourinho suggested that the league can be arranged more closely in May, so that a winter break can be vacated at the end of the year.

Now in the English football industry, Mourinho is almost a weather vane. Even Sir Alex Ferguson stood up to support this proposal: "I think that annoying Portuguese said it well this time. The Premier League should have reconsidered it a long time ago." Looking at the schedule, all players and coaches need to rest."

Soon, this news spread throughout England, and many media rushed to report on it. This proposal was supported by all English football coaches. Unfortunately, it never attracted the attention of relevant people.

For the officials of the FA, the development of the Premier League is the most important thing. The health of the players and coaches has nothing to do with them.

The beautiful Christmas was spent in such quarrels. Many fans have already begun to look forward to the second half of the season. Time flies. On December 12, the day after Christmas, the Premier League ushered in In the 26th round, Chelsea's game is the most eye-catching focus battle in the entire Premier League. The opponent is Aston Villa from Birmingham.

Before this season, in the assessment of Chelsea by many football 'professionals', his strength is not much different from that of Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur, the second-tier teams in the Premier League. The goal is to fight for a place in the UEFA Champions League. That is to say, in the schedule drawn up by the FA officials before the season, the Chelsea VS Aston Villa game is the focus of attracting the attention of fans.

In fact, Chelsea's opponent in this round should be Portsmouth. In order to attract the attention of fans, this game was postponed to the 20th round.

But what they didn't expect was that Chelsea's record was really terrifying. They won a complete victory in half the schedule, and let almost all fans know the strength of Chelsea, which made this so-called "focus battle" pale. At least, I am afraid that the only way to attract attention is to replace the opponent with Manchester United or Arsenal.

"Aston Villa can't shake the giants' toes yet!"

In the pre-match media reports, the "Fulham Post" used such a headline to report the game. They believed that Aston Villa had no threat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, and the so-called focus battle was just A game destined to end.

The "Sun" published a semi-ironic headline like "5:0, OR, 6:0"——
"Chelsea's midfielder Parker, defender Ricardo Carvalho are unable to play due to injuries, and captain John Terry has been suspended for accumulating yellow cards, but this kind of Chelsea is still not something that Aston Villa can shake. The immediate question is how will Aston Villa defend against Chelsea's offensive? This so-called focus battle at Stamford Bridge is likely to become a one-sided massacre, and we look forward to seeing the final result."

Not only the media that supports Chelsea, but even the "Guardian", which has always been opposed to it, said that "Aston Villa wants to win, and they have to go a long way." They also don't think Chelsea will suffer a defeat. Although this view is somewhat popular, it is true. In the eyes of many people, as long as Aston Villa cannot effectively stop Wang Li's terrifying scoring efficiency, it is almost impossible to win unless they can beat Chelsea. Score more goals, but--
is it possible! ?
According to the views of these media, the game on December 12 is really nothing to watch. In the first game after Christmas, at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea swept Aston Villa 26-5 mercilessly. pull.

In this game, Wang Li scored two goals and assisted once, and his performance was still stable, which greatly disappointed many Premier League team coaches who hoped that Wang Li's state would decline after Christmas.

"Chelsea beat Aston Villa 5:1, and the 19-game winning streak in the league shocked the crowd!"

"Alan Wang's performance is still strong, two shots and one pass won the best of the game!"

"Claude Makelele: I'm looking forward to the league title!"

……

The next day, many newspapers, TV, Internet, and various media throughout Europe reported on the game. As the only game worth paying attention to after Christmas, Chelsea's performance touched the hearts of many people.If this game took place in the general league stage, then except for the English media, the media in other countries will not pay too much attention, but now it is the winter break, other leagues have been suspended, and the only Premier League that has started is attracting attention The level was immediately raised to a higher level.

It can also be seen from this that the FA's competition policy is still very effective, and the schedule is intensive. On the other hand, it has also greatly increased the attention of the Premier League.

At this time, with the 19 consecutive victories in the half schedule of the league, Chelsea's momentum to win the league championship has become more and more fierce. Many bookmakers have already offered odds for Chelsea to win the championship several rounds in advance.

After the game, a reporter from The Sun claimed, "If someone says that Chelsea can't win the Premier League title this season, it's really a very funny joke. In Chelsea, I can hardly find any flaws. , Both offense and defense have done very well, and the consecutive victories have not increased the arrogance of these players, they all have a winning heart."

The "Times" also made the first bird this time, and they couldn't wait to praise Chelsea: "There will be some overlords in every era, and the history of European football is also writing all this. Liverpool, Barcelona, ​​​​Manchester United, Nottingham Forest, AC Milan, Inter Milan...these teams have had a period of dominance, and now in English football, Manchester United's dominance dynasty has ended, and Arsenal's performance has also begun to decline after rebounding. In 05, the dominance will undoubtedly be Chelsea, only Chelsea!!! Their current performance is completely in line with the strength of a football supremacy!!"

"What we have to do is to welcome the arrival of this overlord, instead of being jealous of him and attacking him, hoping that he can not only rule the Premier League, but also the whole world!!"

Finally, "The Times" believes that Chelsea should stabilize their mentality in order to play the rest of the game.

For English teams, the second half of the league is the most important, and it is also the standard that can measure how strong a team is. When the league progresses here, the background of the club can be fully reflected. Teams that perform well, due to the depth of the bench, injuries, mentality, etc., will have a series of problems that will lead to unstable results.

Of course, Chelsea has no problem with the depth of the bench. To be honest, their lineup is completely comparable to that of Manchester United and Arsenal. After half a season, it is very likely that there will be a sense of pride, thinking that no matter who the opponent is, Chelsea can play a beautiful big victory.

The final analysis of "The Times" is indeed very reasonable, and the Chelsea club is also thinking about the solution to this problem, and even invited a team of psychologists to relieve the pressure and mentality of the players.

This may have some effect, at least in daily training, the players are a lot more serious, the team's coaching staff can't help giving Mourinho a thumbs up after seeing all this, the Portuguese always thinks of all solutions , he seemed omnipotent.

At this time, Mourinho, who was praised by everyone, was already sitting at the desk, but he was not studying any tactical issues, but was studying matters related to winter transfers.

In fact, Chelsea's bench depth is not as perfect as "The Times" praised. In the winter transfer, Chelsea's Nigerian defender Baba Yaluo is destined to leave Stamford Bridge and go to Newcastle United. An internal agreement has been reached, and the transfer amount is 200 million pounds. Both teams are quite satisfied with this transfer. In Mourinho's view, Babayaro's ability is not enough to play as a substitute for Chelsea. It's useless to stay.

But now the situation is different, Scott Parker and Ricardo Carvalho are injured, and Claude Makelele often encounters suspension crises due to accumulating yellow cards, which makes Chelsea lack of major players in the backcourt.

The schedule in January and February is absolutely terrifying. To deal with this situation, Mourinho must introduce new players to Chelsea in the midfield position during the winter transfer time.

After a long period of research, the Portuguese champion coach set his sights on the magical Spanish winger Joaquin Sanchez Rodriguez. This 23-year-old young player definitely has good strength. As early as 03, He has already entered Spain's squad for the World Cup, which shows his strength, whether it is defense or offense, he can do well.

After Mourinho had this idea, the Real Betis club in Seville, Spain soon received an application for an offer——
Chelsea's high price of 3000 million euros for Joaquin Sanchez Rodriguez! !

The Chelsea club did not hide this acquisition, and soon this news made headlines on the front pages of many media, "Chelsea made a strong attack and booked a Spanish talent for 3000 million euros!!"

This is really a psychological test for Real Betis.
