Starting with Real Madrid kicking the midfielder

Chapter 226 The number one star in the Premier League?He is already [Big guys please subscribe! 】

After the most watched focus battle in the first half of the Premier League this season, many fans are still reminiscing about the charm of this game.

The game scene was not as close as they had imagined before the game.

Chelsea still overwhelmed Arsenal in terms of player performance and tactical design.

Even though Chelsea only had a ball possession rate in the early 40s, there is no doubt that Chelsea controlled the rhythm of the game.

If after watching this game, we must compare the strength of the two teams, then more fans should be inclined to open on June [-]th.

Arsenal's defense is actually very good. Today they have successfully frozen Ibrahimovic and greatly restricted Hazard's performance.

Even the two goals scored by Li Ang came from long shots outside the penalty area. It can be said that Arsenal lost today due to Li Ang's explosion.

In the vast majority of game time, Arsenal can still compete with Chelsea.

Therefore, many fans say that Arsenal is not as good as Chelsea. One is that they lack a serious first-class winger on the left.

Cazorla is good, but he's better in the middle, and he's not quick enough to flank Walcott.

Now Arsenal is short of spending money to buy another top-notch left winger in football.

By then Walcott will suffer a little less injury, and Arsenal's offensive threat will undoubtedly be improved to a higher level.

Is it useful to fly with both wings?Just look at Real Madrid and Bayern over the past few seasons.

Two, of course it lies in the hardness of the midfield.

Arsenal still failed to take advantage of Chelsea in the midline contest this time.

Whether it is defense or offense, Chelsea almost firmly suppressed Arsenal in the rhythm of the midfield.

Therefore, in the overall game, Arsenal can only compete with Chelsea most of the time, but they cannot take the initiative to suppress Chelsea.

It can only be said that Chelsea's midfield is too hard and too top.

Many fans of other Premier League teams who watched the entire game just felt suffocated.

Because today's Chelsea, even against Arsenal, a top Premier League team that is second only to them, can slowly strangle it, preventing Arsenal from fully exerting their offensive strength.

This kind of game rhythm and pressing method is not much different from when Chelsea played in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League in the past.

At most, Chelsea is more cautious, more attentive and more patient on the defensive end.

So, when the previous top and second teams all lost to Chelsea in the same way.

How should other Premier League teams that will play Chelsea again formulate tactics and maintain confidence within the team?

Chelsea's toughness has far exceeded the expectations of these fans before the game, including Manchester City fans.

Even now that Manchester City has surpassed Arsenal and ranked second in the Premier League, it is only six points away from Chelsea.

But Manchester City fans were not happy at all.

However, when these fans are worried about Chelsea's strong rise, various British media are promoting Chelsea's strong strength with great fanfare.

After all, except for the 2011-2012 season, the fierce competition between Manchester United and Manchester City, a duo of Manchester United, is more interesting.

The Premier League in recent seasons has lost too much suspense in the championship.

Manchester United has won five Premier League titles in the past seven seasons.

To be honest, this is not the scene that Premier League fans want to see, let alone the scene that the FA want to see.

Because Manchester United is too strong in the Premier League.

Without the suspense of the championship, how to attract more neutral fans to pay attention to the Premier League, become Premier League fans, and further drive the overall traffic of the Premier League?
Originally, Manchester City's strong rise in the 11-12 season made the FA executives very happy for a while.

Manchester City has a background, fans, and strong financial support.

It is a good choice to support such a team to fight Manchester United.

And Manchester City was also competitive at the beginning. In the summer of 12, they performed the miracle of the last round of comeback and won the championship, which was favored by many media and fans.

But this team is rising fast, and their hips are also fast!

Representing the Premier League in the Champions League last season, the FA has high hopes for Manchester City.

As a result, they were beaten by Real Madrid and Dortmund without any power to fight back. In the end, Manchester City didn't even compete with Ajax!
After the six rounds of the Champions League group stage, the bottom of the group came back in despair!

This record, how could the boiling public opinion at that time be slapping Manchester City in the face?It's like spanking the FA's ass!

How can such a team be praised?
Originally, the FA always planned to go back to the old way in the new season and continue to support Manchester United, the number one club in the Premier League.

In the end, good guy, after the big ship Manchester United came ashore in Ferguson, it was leaking and it was called a Kazakh!
Fortunately, Mourinho, who returned to Chelsea, made a very good start to the new season.

This made the FA executives feel a little more at ease.

Chelsea won more and more games later on, and Li Ang also proved that he is not a "ball player" with his stable and powerful performance. He really has the strength to be the core to support a strong team!

Therefore, the Football Association has basically made up its mind and is waiting for the result of this game between Chelsea and Arsenal.

Now that Chelsea wins, the FA will have no worries.

Before that, they were only betting on Chelsea for the sake of Li Ang and Mourinho.

Now it's an all-out competitive business!
With the official instructions behind it, the momentum that the British media created for Chelsea this time is quite amazing.

The CEOs of other Premier League teams are naturally very sensitive to the blessings from the officials.

There must be envy and jealousy, but there is no way.

Chelsea hit a good time when the sinking of Manchester United and the rebuilding of Manchester City, and the results in the third-line combat are very strong, which is to use their strength to win the favor of the FA.

Without this hard power, the jealousy is just white jealousy.

Naturally, there are relevant people in charge of Chelsea who have reached a tacit understanding with the FA.

In terms of UEFA, the FA and the Premier League have always been unpopular, so the FA can only add strength to the public opinion position.

The results in the Champions League still have to be grasped by Chelsea themselves.

But at least within the Premier League, Chelsea can at least get an official commitment to "whistle fairness" in the game.

Having such a thing is completely enough for Mourinho.

After all, he suffered too much in this regard when he was in the Premier League.

Now the FA can guarantee that the referees sent for each game can call the penalty impartially, which is the biggest help for Chelsea.

After the battle with Arsenal, it can be said that there are many benefits.

Although Chelsea's main players have consumed a lot of physical energy, the boost in morale and fighting spirit is also visible to the naked eye.

Although Mourinho immediately alerted his disciples in the locker room after the game, telling them not to be too complacent and proud.

But in his own heart, why is he not proud of his players?

So even if the schedule is intensive, Mourinho gave all players a holiday after the training session on Christmas morning on the 25th.

Players who have participated in the club's Christmas activities that day can return home early to reunite with their relatives and friends.

Li Ang came to Mourinho's home on Christmas night under Mourinho's strong invitation that he could not refuse, and spent the most important festival in the Western world with Mourinho and his family.

But for him, Christmas really doesn't mean much, so he didn't take pictures and post social tweets, and the whole dinner was devoted to cooking.

Chelsea fans only learned of the news that Li Ang ran to Mourinho's house for a meal through Mourinho's personal tweet that night.

As soon as Christmas was over, on the morning of December 12, the Chelsea players rushed to the Cobham training base again on time, and they had to hurry up to complete the last practice before the game.

After the battle with Arsenal, the Chelsea team only had two and a half days to rest, and then they will face the challenge of Swansea at their home court.

The younger Chelsea players can still withstand it, but most of the Chelsea veterans who finished the game last game have to rest for a round.

But what surprised Mourinho was that Ibrahimovic's physical condition is still very good.

He is fit enough to play in the next round and the 18th round of the Premier League at Swansea.

In this case, Chelsea does not need to make major adjustments in offensive tactics. With Ibrahimovic in the frontcourt as support, Li Ang can also play more easily.

At 12 pm on December 26th, a total of eight games in the No. 18 round of the Premier League started at this time point.

Among them is the game between Chelsea and Swansea.

During the Christmas Devil's schedule, the Premier League teams have a relatively large lineup rotation.

Chelsea is actually okay, because the depth of the bench is sufficient and the funds are also strong, so even the players who play in the rotation are relatively strong.

But for a team like Swansea that happens to rank in the middle of the Premier League in single-line combat, the difference in strength between the starting players and the rotation players is very far.

In the last round of shopping with Everton, Swansea lost the defensive general Ben Davis on the left, and finally drew with Everton with difficulty.

This is very bad news for the entire Swansea team.

Because Ben Davis is not only the defensive gate of Swansea's left, but his inward defense is also very important for the protection of Swansea's center line.

Now Ben Davis is injured and temporarily unable to play, and many of the main players in the team are also struggling to the point where their physical fitness is close to exhaustion.

Swansea coach Michel Laudrup had no choice but to choose to rotate a large number of main players in the battle against Chelsea.

It's not that he surrendered before the game, but that the thickness of Swansea's bench is here.

Either sacrifice the health of the main players and follow-up league results, or make the most sensible avoidance choice in this round of tough battle with Chelsea.

Laudrup chose to let go of this round of the league directly, which is also excellent news for Chelsea.

At least after getting the list of starting players before the Swansea game, Mourinho took a long breath.

Swansea's starting striker Bonny, starting midfielder De Guzman, Pablo Hernandez, starting defender Flores...

As many as six of Swansea's main starting players are rested in this round of the game. This game is no longer too difficult for Chelsea.

If this can still turn the game into an anxious situation, then Mourinho will have to take a look at the halftime period to see if there is something wrong with the thinking of his players!

Fortunately, the worst situation Mourinho expected did not appear.

As soon as the game started that afternoon, the Chelsea team quickly suppressed Swansea under Li Ang's organization and dispatch, and besieged it!

Today, Leon is partnered with Ramirez and Van Ginkel in the midfield.

Hazard on the left has a rest today, so Bertrand has moved to the position of the left midfielder again.

Ake is the long-lost starter at left back.

Today Chelsea's double central defender is partnered by Ivanovic and Karas.

Azpilicueta, who had performed very well before, has further secured his starting position at right back.

De Bruyne continues to serve as the starting right midfielder, and his physical fitness is still relatively abundant.

Also, Oscar can't play well on the wing, otherwise Mourinho will let Oscar help De Bruyne in the top round.

After the rotation, the strength of Chelsea's front, middle and back courts still exceeds that of Swansea by a large margin.

After quickly suppressing Swansea, Chelsea's offensive routine today is also very simple and direct.

It is to use Ibrahimovic's strong point to gouge Swansea's defense!
After all, Swansea rotated three main players on the entire back line today. How could Mourinho miss such a good opportunity.

Li Ang continued to score the ball, so De Bruyne and Bertrand repeatedly attacked Swansea's two side defenses, and then delivered shells to Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic, who was trapped by Arsenal's defense in the last round, was holding back his anger.

Today Mourinho gave him the right to fire wirelessly, and he unceremoniously kicked it up!
Throughout the first half of the game, Ibrahimovic shot a full nine shots in and out of Swansea's penalty area!

Of course, the effect of this simple tactic under the right circumstances is outstanding.

Because Swansea can't stop Chelsea's two-wing attack and Ibrahimovic's unscrupulous shooting at all.

As soon as the first half of the game was over, Ibrahimovic returned to the bench to rest with two goals.

After all, there will be another tough battle with Liverpool soon. Ibrahimovic doesn't want to miss the next round of focus battle, so he has no objection to Mourinho's arrangement.

Lukaku's appearance made Swansea's defenders still dare not let down their guard.

But their defense did not add too much resistance to Chelsea.

Swansea's defensive players couldn't stop Li Ang from assisting Lukaku to score in the No. 607 minute of the second half!

Chelsea secured the victory, and Li Ang finally got his 10th league assist of the season in this game!
When the Premier League this season is only one round away from the halfway mark, Li Ang has achieved the goal of double ten in the league after reaching the double ten in the season!

Played 11 rounds in the Premier League (with a round of rest) and handed over 10 goals and [-] assists!
This data is very luxurious, and the efficiency is extremely amazing!
In the case that half of the season is not over yet, Li Ang's total data has reached 15 goals and 13 assists.

Just short of the last two assists, Li Ang was able to reach the season's double fifteen data.

The commentator of Sky Sports didn't know how to continue to praise Li Ang's outstanding performance.

Become a Premier League line-up star?

Sorry, Li Ang is now!
