Chapter 721 Another 3 central defenders
Chapter 721 Three central defenders again
There was a time when the Great London War was about to start.
Chelsea has won consecutive victories in the last 12 rounds, and has been in the limelight for a while.
The blue army led by Conte is galloping on the road to the championship with a destructive attitude.
Many people also describe this Chelsea team as the beginning of a new era, with Conte and the fiery Hazard becoming the biggest talking points.
Hazard is the core and most critical player of Chelsea, and at the beginning of the season, Hazard's dominance in the game is shocking.
The Premier League iron man, undead running, crazy passing machines, etc. have all become Hazard's key words.
The Belgian star is currently the hottest player in the entire Premier League.
However, some people said before the game that this game will be Hazard's most difficult game.
Judging from the current situation, Arsenal is definitely a strong 'iron wall' for the entire Premier League.
Their defense is airtight and they have a strong midfield line support. Both Lucky and Kanter will impose certain restrictions on Hazard.
And how to amplify Hazard's role tactically is a problem that Conte urgently needs to solve.
On the other hand, Arsenal's side, how to break Chelsea's winning streak and that kind of competition competitiveness, and how to maximize their own strength in the away game, are the issues they need to pay attention to.
At the same time, Mourinho and Chelsea have also become one of the topics.
Having coached Chelsea twice, the story between Mourinho and Chelsea is obviously not as wonderful as a fairy tale, and every departure is a sad journey.
For Mourinho, leaving Chelsea was frustrating enough for him last time.
During his time at Manchester United, he failed to prove himself.
The conflict between Chelsea boss Abramovich and Mourinho has basically become public.
Therefore, for Mourinho, this game is not just a simple league game, but also a key game to prove himself.
On February 2, the 11th round of the Premier League will start on this day.
Lucy got up early and began to wash, and after a simple morning run, he began to eat.
Breakfast is simple, bread, cereal, milk and some nuts.
On match days, players usually don’t choose to eat too much food. While ensuring a sense of fullness, they also need to keep their stomachs in a relatively empty state.
This reduces blood flow to the stomach and expands the sensory capabilities of other body parts.
Before the game, they will eat some bananas that are easy to digest.
After breakfast, Le Kai drove to the training base.
The London battle is imminent, and many fans have already surrounded the entrance of the training base.
Under the protection of the security personnel, Le Kai drove the car into the base.
Come to the locker room and change into training clothes.
Other teammates also came one after another.
Le Kai carefully observed the expressions of his teammates, and there was no sense of pressure. This is good news, at least it means that the teammates still have a certain degree of confidence in this game.
The game will be played in the afternoon and they will have some light training in the morning.
The training content is mostly for the purpose of jogging, passing warm-ups and increasing the ball feel.
After all, the game is ahead, and the coaching staff will not allow the players to undergo high-intensity training, which will waste their energy in vain.
In the morning, taking advantage of their free time, the coaching staff prepared a "football table tennis game" to help the players relieve some pressure.
The rules of the game are the same as table tennis, but the small ball becomes a big ball, which can be hit with any part of the body except the hands.
After the entire game session, the teammates felt a lot more relaxed, and it was noon amidst laughter.
At noon, the canteen of the base will be uniformly prepared.
The dishes are still very simple, a small amount of carbohydrates + some vegetables is the pre-match meal.
After eating, the players returned to the locker room.
Mourinho announced the big list for the game. The players on the list packed their bags and prepared to go out with the team.
Others stayed at the training base and trained on their own.
Lucky carried very few packages, except for the boots and equipment, he also stuffed some bananas.
These bananas are for myself and my teammates.
Lucky prefers bananas to whole-grain bread for his final pregame meal.
Boarding the bus early, Lucy peeled off the bananas and began to eat them.
After the teammates came up, Le Kai also distributed some.
Finally, Mourinho got on the bus, and with a sound of 'departure', the bus slowly started to move.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the bus arrived at Stamford Bridge.
After coming here, the surrounding cheers have flooded the entire stadium.
Chelsea fans put pressure on Arsenal with loud cheers.
And not far away, Lucky also saw some Chelsea fans holding pictures of Mourinho.
Of course, they are not out of respect.
Because Mourinho's photo was marked with a bright red X.
Lucky noticed that Mourinho's expression had also become extremely gloomy. Obviously, the behavior of Chelsea fans made Mourinho extremely angry.
In any case, he has brought many honors here.
After silently walking into the stadium, the two sides began to warm up 30 minutes before the game.
Lucky is no stranger to Stamford Bridge.
The most lively place here is undoubtedly the North Stand.
The North Stand, also known as the Matthew Harding Stand, is a gathering place for diehard Chelsea fans.
Although it is not as famous as Liverpool's KOP, the atmosphere is not bad at all.
Hush! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ——
Le Kai pouted secretly.
Even though it was an away game, I still felt very uncomfortable being booed.
At the same time, Le Kai also looked to the other side.
Chelsea's players are also warming up.
Lucky found Hazard's figure.
This is the goal he needs to focus on in this game.
Mourinho gave Le Kai an order to completely suppress Hazard.
As long as Hazard can be suppressed, it will be difficult for Chelsea to play a normalized game.
Conte's tactics also rely more on Hazard to advance.
The warm-up is over, and the players from both sides return to the locker room for final preparations.
Mourinho also announced the starting list after emphasizing the game tactics again.
The starters began to walk out of the locker room, and the rest of the players stood by.
"This is the Sky Sports live broadcast room. The upcoming game is the 25th round of the Premier League, the London match between Chelsea and Arsenal!"
"In the past 12 rounds, Chelsea has won consecutive victories, and now it is at the top of the standings with a great advantage. Conte's Chelsea showed unparalleled game dominance in the second half of the season!"
"And for them, the greatest enemy is coming!"
"The performance of Mourinho's Arsenal should not be underestimated. What's more, Mourinho, a coach who knows Chelsea very well, what kind of game will the two sides show?"
Both starting lineups.
Chelsea (3-4-3):
Goalkeeper: Courtois.
Defenders: Azpilicueta, David, Luiz, Cahill.
Midfielders: Moses, Fabregas, Matic, Alonso.
Forwards: Pedro, Costa, Hazard.
Arsenal (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Martinez.
Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.
Midfielders: Kanter, Wilshere, Lucky.
Forwards: Aubameyang, Lukaku, Mane.
Chelsea came up with a lineup of three central defenders, which was somewhat beyond everyone's expectations.
After all, there is no good end for a team with three central defenders in front of Arsenal.
This was true of Bayern Munich back then, and so was Gent in the Champions League.
No one knows what Conte is thinking.
The playing conditions of the three central defenders are very strict, and if one is not good, it is likely to encounter a collapse.
And Arsenal know how to attack this lineup.
The most critical thing is that the central point of the three central defenders is David Luiz.
It is not denied that this player played a sufficient role in his peak period, but David Luiz's defensive ability is really not too strong.
Compared with the position of central defender, he is more suitable for a ball-out midfielder.
Let him play deep defense, which may pave the way for Chelsea's loss.
Mourinho was also a little surprised.
Is there any special tactical configuration, or is it drifting after 12 consecutive victories?
Anyway, Arsenal's lineup can handle it no matter what, just try it out and you will know.
