I brush achievements in football

Only played seven games this season, and Chelsea lost three games-two wins, two draws and three losses in seven games, which seems to be worse than the mid-range teams.

Coupled with the away loss to Porto in the last game of the Champions League, the pressure on Mourinho began to increase.

In his third year, there will always be all kinds of moths, it depends on whether he can withstand it.

Meeting Southampton at this time is a good opportunity for him. If he can beat Southampton, he can rely on victory and prestige to stabilize the team, but if he loses again, Mourinho will not be able to suppress him. Living.

But to beat Southampton... easier said than done.

Although Southampton lost to Manchester United before, it was mainly due to luck and Ji Ya's change. After the lineup returned to [-], they have won two consecutive victories in the league and the Champions League, which proves that as long as Southampton is serious If you go to the game, then there will be no problems.

And Chelsea's current lineup is actually fine, but it is true that people's hearts... have begun to slacken.

The conflict in the first round of the league not only caused Mourinho to suffer from controversy, but fans also accused him of dumping the blame on the team medical team, especially Eva, the assistant medical director of Chelsea's medical department, at Mourinho's press conference After continuing to accuse Eva on the Internet, the media and fans believed that Mourinho had gone too far.

And his attitude also made the relationship between him and Hazard very bad, because that injury was mainly Hazard's injury.

Many players began to think that Mourinho just regarded himself as a tool man. All the glory was obtained by Mourinho's hard work. If there was a mistake, the player did not perform well. This kind of conflict made Mourinho, who is used to the iron fist A little caught off guard...

Under such circumstances, Mourinho's control over the team has indeed begun to have problems.

In this game, Ji Ya did continue to return to the four-three-three lineup, and made some adjustments. Goalkeeper Gulacci, on the defensive line, he used Rudiger to play right back, replaced Cancelo, and Alonso continued. In the starting lineup, the central defenders are Van Dijk and Bailey, the midfielders Kanter, De Bruyne, Gundogan, and the forwards Mane, Vardy, Dembele.

Mourinho originally arranged a lot of tactics to contain Lukaku. After all, Lukaku has been in good form recently and can be called Southampton's top card. He has performed extremely well in the league and the Champions League, whether it is the league or the Champions League Among them, his goals can always open the situation or establish the victory.

And such a big and fast center will always make people feel very headache.

Plus Lukaku is from Chelsea... If it weren't for Chelsea, he would still be in Belgium.

Under such circumstances, Mourinho certainly does not want a player he does not want to perform well in front of him-but with his approval two years ago, Lukaku went to Southampton as a leader.

Now that he is performing so well, it really makes people look a little ashamed.

However, Kiya did not let Lukaku play!

This made Mourinho quite stunned.

Isn't he afraid that Lukaku will be dissatisfied because of this?

In any case, tactically, Southampton still has suddenness.

This lineup has a sharper offense on both wings, while Vardy mainly focuses on grabbing points.

Chelsea sent the same four-three-three. The goalkeeper Courtois was unable to play due to injury, so Chelsea could only send a substitute goalkeeper Begvic. The defense was still intact. Ivanovic, Aspi Liqueta, Terry, Cahill, midfielder Ramirez and Fabregas partner double midfielders, Matuidi sits on the bench, Oscar comes forward, the wings are Hazard and Willian, the center Falcao.

Chelsea's lineup did not perform well.

They were suppressed by Southampton at the beginning of the game. Southampton's running and passing made Chelsea very uncomfortable. Fabregas was constantly pressed by De Bruyne and couldn't do well. Organized offense, but De Bruyne's organized offense continued to create threats.

However, Chelsea, which was trained by Mourinho, has always maintained one thing...

When the scene is not good, they can sometimes score goals.

That's it this time.

After being pressed by Southampton for 10 minutes, they relied on an opportunity that was not a chance to score. Hazard was brought down by Rudiger in a counterattack. Willian took a free kick. The ball bypassed the wall and scored. Inside the post, and bounced into the goal!

It was Willian's fourth free-kick goal of the season, tying Zola and Didier Drogba's club record of four free-kick goals in a single season...

After losing the ball, Southampton was not discouraged. They continued to suppress and attack, calmly tearing apart Chelsea's defense.

Chelsea's defense has been excellent this season, but given their age...

Ivanovic is 31, Cahill is almost 35, Terry is 26, and Azpilicueta is the youngest at [-].

With such a defensive line, after one season's outstanding performance, it is too difficult to expect them to have an outstanding performance in the second season.

Especially Terry, although he is the captain of Chelsea and has maintained a good state for a long time, but at the age of 35, his performance has indeed begun to decline a lot.

Mane was quite active in this game. He continued to form breakthroughs on the left. Ivanovic seemed slow and old when dealing with his impact.

Southampton played quite well on both wings in this game, Chelsea defended well on the left, Azpilicueta performed very steadily, but it was very difficult on the right.

They hung on until the end of the first half, and then Southampton scored just when they saw hope.

After Mane broke through from the left, he passed the ball into the penalty area. Vardy received the ball with his back to the goal in the penalty area. When Cahill and Terry thought he was going to turn around forcibly, he directly hit the ball back with his chest!

De Bruyne, who followed up, faced the falling ball, and just shot a low shot without stopping the ball!

The ball almost brushed the far post and flew into the dead corner of the goal, and Southampton equalized the score!

Mourinho seemed annoyed at being equalized before the end of the first half, which led him back to the dressing room after kick-off, before the game was over.

Such an action obviously did not convince the players, on the contrary, it deepened their rift.

After the start of the second half, Chelsea played even more ugly on the field. Mourinho replaced Ramirez with Matuidi at the beginning of the second half. The early substitution was obviously dissatisfied with the performance of the players. .

But such a substitution can't change anything, but it makes Chelsea's players even more at a loss on the court.

Under such circumstances, Southampton's offense has become more and more sharp.
