"I'm not interested in anyone!" For those stars who want to join Chelsea in the winter, Chelsea coach Mourinho's words are like a bolt from the blue, which means that the defending Premier League champion had closed the door when the transfer market just started. Mourinho's words were released three days before the game against Manchester City.

Chelsea has only one goal for the new season: defending the title. Compared with the previous season, the possibility of Chelsea winning the championship has even improved. Their team is very stable, and the main lineup personnel have not changed much. There are almost two outstanding players competing for each position.

Mourinho just won the BBC traditional sports figure of the year, the coach of the year. He told him that he was from love that he won the award once and it was not difficult or successful. He thought that he would win this award every year, which was the real success. Just like his team Chelsea, if he could not continue to sweep the momentum in the Premier League, his hard work over the past year would be in vain.

"Of course I don't expect everyone to like me. I don't expect Manchester United, Arsenal or Liverpool fans to fall in love with me because all I do is to do everything possible to take away what they want." This is what he said to reporters after winning the award.

After Manchester City defeated Liverpool, the madman Mourinho once again told the media that although Manchester City is no longer as good as before, it is obviously not the time to become Chelsea's opponent.

In the analysis meeting of Chelsea within Manchester City, Pierce pointed out: "There is no doubt that the Blues are very strong. He can transfer and control the rhythm of the game on a large scale, but what they lack most is the creativity of the midfield and the delicate small-scale pass and cut. Facing the iron barrel, using the high balls and large-scale transfers on both sides can't play the goal of tearing the opponent's defense line. In the small range, there are basically three players in the opponent's attack, and there is only one of his own offensive players, so you can control the ball well and tear the defense line? Therefore, the Blues' offense often seems very stiff, without creativity and imagination. Drogba's shooting skills are really nothing to say, and they can only be ashamed..."

He then added: "And Chelsea often encounters this situation in current games. They can control the ball and control the game, but when they need to turn the ball into a goal, they seem to have a lot of resistance. Chelsea's midfield ball control is mostly completed in the middle circle and behind the middle circle, mostly with cross passes and back passes. However, from the opponent's penalty area to about 45 meters, the Blues find it difficult to get the ball. The forward is separated by the defenders, and the midfield cannot send out threatening passes. Although Chelsea has the unique skills of defensive counterattack and the clear defense line has made many teams feel a headache, Liverpool still crosses them the previous season. This is an example. When facing a team with equally excellent defense, when they need to score, what can Mourinho rely on?"

"Chelsea has been smooth so far this year, and is far ahead in the league. Although they ranked second in the group in the Champions League, the opponents entering the knockout stage do not have a good light. Therefore, it is not very different from who the opponent is. Don't forget that last year was the first, but they met Barcelona. If UEFA instructs a difficult opponent again this year, they will also have to fight a tough battle. Therefore, this will inevitably affect their performance in the league. We are in high morale, and we are at home, and there is no chance at all!" In the end, Huang Long said in summary.

After the meeting, Huang Long and Pierce were locked in the room and watched the game video, and they began to study Chelsea in detail.

Chelsea is undoubtedly powerful, but his weakness is also obvious, that is, the technical content and creativity of the midfield are insufficient. Chelsea's offensive methods are almost clear to the whole world: use strong defense to intercept the ball from the backcourt and quickly counterattack, use the personal skills of the winger group to pass and cut from the wing, Drogba uses his body to grab points and break through, midfielder Lampard's long shot, and then set-piece tactics. The last one is ignored here. Chelsea relies on counterattacks and grabbing opponents' loopholes to score goals, but once they encounter the opponent's intensive defense, they use the method of compressing the space to limit the attack of the winger. At the same time, it is intensive to defend in the middle, and it is quite difficult to open the situation. When Chelsea's defense has reached the top level, their biggest tactical disadvantage is that their offensive methods are not rich enough.

Their midfield trio - Lampard, Marklele and Essin are standard combinations, while the winger is determined by his personal condition. The defense strength and speed of this midfield are sufficient, but their organizational ability is very lacking.

Lampard is not without organizational ability, but after the breakthrough, he passed a deadly ball and tear the opponent's defense line, he still did not reach the top level. This can also explain why Crespo, who has both first-class running and grasping the front-end smell, has never been comparable to his performance in the Premier League. Due to the strong technical midfield strength of the Argentina team, Riquelme's superb skills lies in the fact that he can shoot the ball in the moment before offside, and his accuracy can reach centimeters. When Crespo receives such a deadly ball that can tear the opponent's defense line and then faces the goalkeeper alone, it is natural to score. At Chelsea, such passes are too demanding for Lampards, so it is often seen that Crespo is repeatedly in the offside trap.

The lack of technical content in the midfield is also determined by the fast pace of the Premier League and the fierce fighting. Although Chelsea's current lineup is not difficult to dominate the Premier League, once it encounters a giant team, the problem of insufficient technical content will be exposed. Therefore, they lack a technical avant-garde or midfielder! Although Joe Kerr may be competent for this role, the way is to move him to the middle, his skills are good, but he still lacks in the overall view of organizing offense and outputting fatal balls...

This is the conclusion reached by Huanglong and Pierce

Of course, Reuben may be the best candidate for passing the ball. The fast-speed winger Robben is the difficult opponent in the minds of the defenders. He often cuts into the middle from the left to create scoring opportunities for himself or his teammates. But he is a winger after all, and it is impossible for him to always run to the middle of the midfield to get the ball and organize the attack. That's not his long-term goal!

Then the answer seems to be very clear. What Manchester City should do may be to strengthen defense, be patient with Chelsea, use the technical advantages of midfielder Riquelme to suppress the opponent, fight positional battles, and not give the opponent a chance to counterattack quickly!

After all, in addition to Ruben, a good winger, Chelsea's power cannot be underestimated. Although he is not the strongest Chelsea winger. Among the four, he is not as good as Robben in terms of breakthroughs and extraordinary people; he is not as good as Wright in terms of speed and agility; he is not as good as the handsome Joe Cole in terms of aura and appearance. But he is the most balanced technical characteristics: whether it is speed, breakthrough, pass, or defense... Duff can do well. Such a player will definitely cause great trouble to Manchester City in the game.

And although Mourinho said it easily, Diarra, a midfielder who just transferred from French second-tier club Le Havre to Chelsea last summer, recently leaked a secret in an interview with French "League" that he said that the Blues are now nervously preparing for a game against Manchester City.

Diyala, who is only 20 years old, admitted that judging from the daily deployment of the team, head coach Mourinho is most concerned about the situation of Manchester City, rather than opponents in the Champions League, such as Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, AC Milan and Juventus. From this point of view, Diyala believes that he has enough reason to believe that the opponent that gives Chelsea the most headache is the Manchester City team that will meet in the league. "Manchester City is like a powerful engine, especially after they have Riquelme." Diyala stated his evaluation to the "Team News", "This team is definitely Chelsea's biggest opponent at present."

Even so, Huang Long is actually most worried about Chelsea's midfielder Frank Lampard!

A player who has been performing stably for many years, a simple and diligent player, a player who is full of fighting spirit for honor and victory, a player who never stops offense and defense on the court, and a player who is favored by different types of coaches - this is Lampard!

Lampard's unyielding will, diligent spirit, and fighting spirit are the real charm of football - perfectly interpreting the image of a perfect player in this collective event! At the same time, Lampard is also the banner of Chelsea!

Huang Long doesn't think that his player can keep Lampard in sight, just like Chelsea can't find someone who can defend Riquelme. But the biggest problem is that the two full-backs of Manchester City are not opponents of Chelsea wingers at all, and they are not at the same level at all. Obviously, if the central defender or even the midfielder is allowed to assist the full-back in defense, then what should Lampard do? Why is the most realistic problem in front of Huang Long at present.

It is comforting for Huanglong that Robben is too easy to get injured. A regular pre-match training can also strain Robben's thigh muscles. Chelsea's team doctor was puzzled and even doubted: Is Robben's spinal nerve disordered?

However, the problem is not. The doctor's examination results show that Robben has recovered from injury and can play, but he doesn't know why he dares to exert force. The shadow of long-term injuries is of course a reason. But what can help Robben get out of the current shadow? Sympathy, heartache, blame others - this is the answer given by Robben's father, a typical way to shape the mentality of the weak. Everything about Robben is up to his father to make the decision first. After being injured, the father taught him the most is to blame the team doctor.

"Maybe, we can minimize the power of this Dutch genius through fierce fighting." Huang Long thought to himself.

There are three days left and there are three days left to compete with Chelsea. For Manchester City, the most important thing in the game against Chelsea is to test the current flaws of this team.

Apart from the two full-backs, what else is there to be a shortage? Is the attack power really strong enough? Can it tear the iron gate of the first-class defense line? They will be verified in this game!

Igor akinfeyev is a very uncertain factor. Whether he can currently be competent for the main goalkeeper of Manchester City, there may be a clear answer after this game.

Huang Long didn't want to think about it anymore. Now his head was big enough. He walked to the training ground and prepared to see how the players are in the current state.

But as soon as he arrived at the stadium, he found that the players laughed as soon as they saw him. Fowler smiled the most exaggeratedly, and even Sun Jihai pursed his lips.

He walked over in confusion and wanted to catch someone to ask, but when the players saw him walking forward, they all hid away. Pierce stood aside listlessly.

Seeing him walking to his side, Pierce said weakly: "You go and read the Sun."

Huang Long, who felt something was wrong, returned to the office and turned on the newspaper and saw a big photo on it. It turned out to be a photo of Huang Long, Pierce, and Chen Lu when he was having a meal. The title was: "The Manchester City Chairman is hungry, and the assistant coach acts as a pimp!"

Huang Long was so angry that he tore the newspaper into pieces, walked to Chrisdi's office, kicked open the door, looked at Chrisdi, who was smirking and asked, "How is the matter with our acquisition of the newspaper?"

Chrisdy did not answer his question and asked, "Oh, no wonder you wanted to hire a team doctor in China. Now I finally know the reason."

Seeing Huang Long's vision of killing people, he quickly said, "It's very smooth, I guess it will be done within a week."

Huang Long walked to the club department and wanted to stroll and relax, but unexpectedly found that there were two people holding cameras outside constantly photographing him. A word flashed through his mind, "Team of Dogs!"

He walked over with anger, pointed at the two of them and scolded: "You are so flirting with birds. You like shooting so much. Go home and take pictures of your mother!"

The reporter was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and immediately started to curse Huang Long, while the other picked up the camera and kept lined up. Huang Long rushed to snatch the camera in the man's hand, and then smashed it on the head of the man who was scolding him.

After a wail, the reporter in front of him paused with his head in his arms, and the blood immediately dyed his golden hair red. Huang Long stepped forward and made a few kicks while cursing to another reporter who was dazed beside him: "What are you looking at? If you don't agree, sue me!" As he said that, he threw the camera to the ground hard, and the film was pulled out by him and it was completely blown away.

At this time, the club's security guard ran out and pulled him away. Huang Long then cursed and walked back!
