Chapter 146 A surprise for Mourinho!



Ibrahimovic naturally knew Li Mo's response.

But he can only pretend not to know

Because, others scored three goals in one game, but it took him three games to score one.

Moreover, after so many years since his debut, Ibrahimovic's total number of goals in the Champions League is actually not as good as Li Mo.

This is very embarrassing.

Ibrahimovic is a smart man, so he will not race with Li Mo on the track where Li Mo is best.

But now that the media is so developed, it is impossible for Ibrahimovic to pretend not to know what Li Mo said.

On the second day, at the gate of Paris Saint-Germain's training ground.

A large number of reporters shouted for Ibrahimovic to respond.

"Zlatan, do you have any response to Li Mo's words?"

"Zlatan, you only scored one goal in three Champions League group matches. Are you really inferior to Li Mo in terms of scoring ability?"

"Zlatan"

But they were not without gains.

The least important thing, in Wenger's opinion, is the League Cup

The League Cup is so useless.

Always want to make big news.

After this game, there is only two days of rest before the team will face Chelsea at home - this is the fourth round of the League Cup.

The same goes for Arsenal.

Of course, fans are happy to see such scenes, continuous high-intensity and high-level duels, a visual feast.

To the members of the coaching staff.

Take Arsenal, for example. With Arsenal's current lineup system, they can actually support two-front operations - provided they do a good job of rotation.

Eh?

Why is it either Dortmund or Chelsea?

Could it be that the European Super League was established in advance? !

It is a pity that it is tasteless.

They first faced Crystal Palace at home three days later - this was the ninth round of the league.

But rotation means risk.

A reporter chuckled.

"Now I am looking forward to the match between Paris and Arsenal even more."

No team can complete all games with one main lineup.

Although reporters could not get Ibrahimovic out of the car to respond, it was a pity.

Otherwise, why would they be substitutes?

In these games, there still have to be priorities and trade-offs.

On the contrary, if you lose points in the league game, you still have a chance to make up for it.

At least, everyone saw the scene of Ibrahimovic with a dark face.

What's even more painful is that after returning from Germany, in the tenth round of the league, Arsenal will play Chelsea away from home.

The schedules of each team have begun to become intensive.

Their recent schedule has been nothing short of devilish.

The most important and urgent thing is of course the fourth round of the Champions League group stage, because if this game is lost, Arsenal's efforts in this season's Champions League may be in vain.

With a dark face and without saying a word, Ibrahimovic stepped on the accelerator and drove into the parking lot of the training ground.

After playing Chelsea, Arsenal will immediately go to Germany to play in the fourth round of the Champions League group stage, an away game against Dortmund.

After finishing the third round of the Champions League group stage.

The media?

After calculating, it is very clear how to rotate.

Most of the reasons why substitute players are substitutes are because they are not as good as the main players in terms of personal ability and tactical fit.

For Wenger.

This is an objective law.

This is impossible and unrealistic.

Maybe many fans are confused after watching the football games these days.

Rotation has a greater probability of losing points.

With the addition of Champions League matches and domestic cup matches.

When reporters saw Ibrahimovic's car driving towards him, they swarmed over and leaned on the car windows and asked loudly.

Are there strong conversations every day?

In the ninth round of the league against Crystal Palace at home, the fourth round of the League Cup against Chelsea at home, the fourth round of the Champions League group stage against Dortmund, and the tenth round of the league against Chelsea.

Especially in terms of physical fitness.

But for the team, such "back-to-back" events are a huge test.

The fourth round of the Champions League group stage against Dortmund and the tenth round of the league against Chelsea, currently ranked second in the standings, are sure to be heavy blows in these two games.

Rotating some players against Crystal Palace may not necessarily result in loss of points.

As for the home game against Chelsea, Wenger plans to rotate more widely. Of course, since it is at home, he can put a few main players on the bench and decide whether they can play in the second half depending on the situation - if It would not be a bad idea to eliminate Chelsea and reach the fifth round of the League Cup.

10 month 26 day.

to cheers at the Emirates Stadium.

Li Mo, who came on as a substitute in the second half, assisted Chamberlain and scored the goal that sealed the victory.

Arsenal relied on a rotating lineup to defeat Crystal Palace 2-0 at home.

"Arsenal rotated seven or eight main players, but in the end they still won, which means Arsenal can use their rotation in some games that are not that intense and rely on the rotation to score points. In the marathon, In a long season, this kind of ability is really important!"

Looking at the Arsenal players celebrating, Andy Gray in the commentary box said with emotion.

After defeating Crystal Palace.

There is no pause for Arsenal at all, and they will face Chelsea at home immediately.

Chelsea have been in excellent form recently.

Especially in the ninth round of the league, Chelsea defeated Manchester City 2-1 at home.

Under the leadership of Mourinho, who entered Chelsea for the second time, Chelsea seems to have regained the spirit of the "Iron-Blooded Blues".

in this summer transfer window.

The Chelsea boss gave Mourinho, who took over Chelsea's coaching job, a lot of face.

Satisfied the big contract of Eto'o who came on a free transfer.

At the same time, he spent 32 million pounds to buy Brazilian international Willian from the Russian Super League upstart Anzhi.

In addition, there is also forward Schürrer who joined from Bayer Leverkusen.

In addition, many old, weak, sick and disabled people were cleared out.

Now under Mourinho's rule, Chelsea is very strong.

For Mourinho.

This season is his first season in Chelsea.

In fact, there is not much pressure on him to achieve results. Although Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich often fires coaches, he cannot ask Mourinho to win the Premier League championship in the first season he takes over.

But Mourinho has considerable ambitions in his heart.

With Chelsea's lineup, it would not be surprising if they regain the Premier League title this season.

Therefore, for Mourinho, last season's Premier League champion Arsenal is a very critical opponent.

Mourinho thinks.

The League Cup is not important.

However, it is important to use the League Cup to consume Arsenal.

However, Wenger is not a fool. His rotation in the Crystal Palace game makes it easy to guess that Arsenal will also rotate in the League Cup.

Then

How can Arsenal send as many main players as possible in this game, preferably Li Mo also starts?

Mourinho has his own methods.

"I'm not worried about Arsenal at all? Yes, they are the defending champions, but that's just their luck, Arsene Wenger? He is an expert in defeat in the Premier League. He wins far more than he loses in the Premier League. Arsenal is A team that’s not worth worrying about, I’m sure of that.”

At the pre-match press conference.

Almost all reporters stared dumbfoundedly at Mourinho, who was leaning on his seat on the stage with a look of disdain.

Even if the reporters are expecting something to come out of the madman’s mouth.

But who would have thought.

He can talk so powerfully!

Wenger failure specialist?

He really dared to say it.

All media reporters are aware that the real big news is coming!

As Mourinho wished.

The phrase "failure expert" comes out.

British public opinion was shocked.

Many media outlets have reprinted the reports.

Celebrities from all walks of life have come out to criticize Mourinho for speaking out.

"Such an attack is so ungraceful."

"The Portuguese is going too far."

"Mourinho should apologize to Wenger!"

For a while.

Public opinion raged.

At Chelsea's training ground.

Mourinho stood by the window of his office, looking at the training ground with his arms folded.

"Do you think Wenger will be outraged?" asked Mourinho's assistant Stephen Holland.

"I don't know." Mourinho shook his head.

Stephen Holland hesitated for a moment, then reminded: "Do you know how much controversy it will cause by saying this?"

"Of course I know, but if we can successfully anger Arsenal and let them play with all their main players in this game, what does it matter?" Mourinho grinned.

"Just to consume Arsenal, let yourself be in the whirlpool of public opinion... This..." Stephen Holland obviously does not agree with this approach.

But Mourinho smiled and patted his assistant on the shoulder.

"Stephen, you have to remember something."

He turned to look at the training ground.

"The winner will not be blamed. As long as he wins, the price doesn't matter."

Arsenal's training ground.

Everyone was also excited.

'The damn Portuguese! '

"How dare he say that! How dare he!"

"We must teach him a lesson!!"

When Wenger arrived, all he saw were excited faces.

He knows very well that this is Mourinho's method.

If he is provoked and sends his main force, then Chelsea will benefit in the tenth round of the league.

If I had given up, then the team would be angry and pour cold water on me, and I'm afraid morale would be affected.

Mourinho is very good at this kind of war of words.

Wenger frowned and thought for a while, but decided to talk to the players.

During the afternoon tactical meeting.

Wenger did not continue to emphasize any tactical details.

He looked at his players and said: "Obviously, this is the opponent's method. They are trying to provoke us. What does this mean? It means that they are very afraid of us and even do not hesitate to use such means to deal with us."

Wenger's words had no effect.

"I know that everyone wants to teach them a lesson on the field, but this League Cup is not a good time. I would rather defeat Chelsea in the tenth round of the league."

Wenger observed that everyone's interest was not high.

"In this game, I will send a rotation lineup to start."

The atmosphere became a little colder.

"Of course. This is not surrender, Li. You have to be ready to play in the second half!"

"We will not surrender in advance. Our goal is still to eliminate Chelsea and enter the next round of the League Cup!"

After Wenger finished speaking, Arsenal's players showed excitement on their faces.

Li Mo's appearance shows that his father did not really give up the League Cup.

that's enough!

"Let's teach them a lesson!"

There was a roar in the conference room.

The day before the game, according to regulations, all players must check into the hotel, and the first team must stay completely together, even for home games.

Walcott, who was in the same room as Li Mo, discovered that Li Mo had written something on a vest.

He curiously leaned over and took a look.

"What are you"

Li Mo grinned.

"This is a surprise for Mourinho!"
