Super Marshal

A week after the first round of the league, Chelsea ushered in the second round of the league.

The opponent is the Leicester City team.

This is the first time Chelsea have played at Stamford Bridge in the new season, so the team also pays special attention to it.

Alpine made a slight adjustment to the lineup. Right-back Ferreira was replaced by England teenager Glen Johnson. He hoped that the England teenager could give play to his offensive advantage.

The game went smoothly. After only three minutes of the first half, Chelsea opened the scoring.

Deco shot an angry shot from the front of the penalty area, hit the opponent's defender, bounced into the goal, and scored an own goal.

Near the end of the first half, Chelsea scored another goal by Ronaldinho.

The score of two to zero was finally maintained until the end of the game.

The Blues had control of the ball throughout the game, and the possession rate was as high as 61%, but the offense did not pose much threat, and Ibrahimovic and Eto'o did not show much improvement.

On the contrary, it seems that Gao Han arranged them into a room, which actually affected their state.

But Gao Han is very open to this.

When Cantarello was anxiously discussing a solution with him, he smirked and dropped a sentence, "Let them play by themselves!"

...

A week later, Chelsea challenged Birmingham away.

Former Manchester United captain Steve Bruce’s team has always been known for being difficult to play, with relatively large moves, and it did cause considerable trouble for Chelsea throughout the first half, making it difficult for them to pass control.

Especially their three-five-two formation, which gathered five players to strangle Chelsea's midfielder, made the Blues very disadvantaged in this regard. In addition, the team's passing control system has not yet been fully formed, so the scene is chaotic.

But in the second half, Alpine adjusted his tactics and actively played the two wings, especially on Ronaldinho's side.

It was Ronaldinho’s outstanding performance on the left that frequently created threats and made a foul by Birmingham midfielder David Dunn when he dribbled the ball from the left in the 52nd minute. The player accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off.

After one person is missing, Birmingham is gone, and Chelsea is like a tiger descending the mountain, the offensive is like a wave.

In the 53rd minute, Ronaldinho took the lead in using a free kick to score directly, opening the scoring for Chelsea.

After that, Birmingham defeated and resisted, but only fifteen minutes later, Veron scored again and scored two to zero.

After the overall situation was set, Gao Han replaced Robben, Joe Cole and Good Johnson. As a result, Good Johnson calmly seized the opportunity in the 82nd minute, received an assist from Deco, and scored the individual. The first goal of the season.

Just five minutes later, Robben forced a cross from the left and assisted Deco.

Four to zero, Chelsea won a big away game!

...

On August 30, in the fourth round of the Premier League, Chelsea played against Blackburn at Stamford Bridge.

In the opening twenty-four minutes, Ibrahimovic finally scored his first goal of the new season. After receiving a pass from Veron, he used his personal ability to crush his opponent in the penalty area and turned around to hit the goal.

And in the 38th minute, Ronaldinho dived into the penalty area and made another skillful shot, rewriting the score to two to zero.

But after changing sides in the second half, Chelsea frequently wasted opportunities, especially Eto'o, in the case of eager to score a goal, even shot an empty goal, which made the entire Stamford Bridge stadium is a wailing.

Chelsea also quickly learned a lesson for his frequent wasting of opportunities. In the 82nd minute, Blackburn relied on the goal of Australian player Emerton to rewrite the score to two to one.

Although Chelsea won a victory at Stamford Bridge in the end, Eto'o failed to score four consecutive rounds, which still caused him to encounter controversy from fans and the media, especially that single-footed one.

On the other hand, Arsenal, the first four rounds of the Premier League are also four wins and four wins. The main striker Henry has a goal in every game, and currently ranks second in the Premier League's scorer list with four goals.

Currently the top scorer in the Premier League is Newcastle striker Alan Shearer, who has scored five goals.

The native England striker is in a hot state, scoring a wave.

Because of this, after this round of competition, many British media have hyped up the agreement with Alpine, the Independent newspaper even hit the title, a Henry equals Etooga Ibrahimović Multiplying by four, Gao Han had a great mockery and sarcasm.

For the time being, Gao Han couldn't fight back, so he could only bear it temporarily.

But after finishing the fourth round of the league, Gao Han went to Monaco non-stop to participate in UEFA's annual awards meeting.

This time he finally got his wish and won the title of Coach of the Year without any suspense.

Leading Atlético Madrid to win the triple crown, if you can't get this award again, it's really unreasonable.

However, also nominated is Jose Mourinho, who led Porto to the UEFA Cup. Because the two were also born in Barcelona, ​​they are known as brothers in the same discipline and have been used for comparison.

But it is a pity that Mourinho was unable to attend the awards meeting due to some special reasons.

...

After two weeks of national team game days, the Premier League reignited the war.

Chelsea ushered in the North London team at Stamford Bridge, Tottenham Hotspur.

Because of the many players participating in the national team game, Alpine changed the team's lineup. As a result, the defense was unstable. Tottenham's striker Kanout scored the goal in the opening fifteen minutes.

But ten minutes later, Ronaldinho forced a breakthrough from the left and Ibrahimović scored a header in the penalty area, one to one.

Just two minutes later, Ronaldinho made another cut from the left dribble, then suddenly made a curve kick and broke the goal of the North London team again, reversing the score, two games. One.

After changing sides in the second half, in the 71st minute, Deco received a through ball from Ronaldinho, passed the defensive player in the penalty area and then made a low shot, expanding the score to three to one.

When the game was in the 80th minute, Alpine finally arranged for the Cheetah Eto'o to come on the bench.

As a result, Eto'o finally lived up to expectations this time and calmly seized the opportunity in stoppage time. After receiving a cross from Robben's forcible breakthrough from the left, he scored a point in front of the goal, four to one.

In the end, Chelsea reversed Tottenham Hotspur four to one at home and won the London Derby.

After the fifth round, Arsenal, who also started four consecutive victories, finally stopped and ushered in a draw.

But Henry scored his fifth Premier League goal this season.

This also made the British media cheer again.

Because by contrast, Chelsea’s two forwards, Ibrahimovic and Eto’o, have scored three goals together.

...

On September 20th, in the sixth round of the league, Chelsea challenged Wolves in an away game.

This time, the Blues in the away game did not have the slightest mercy, and from the beginning of the game, the Wolves were beaten in half.

Terry, Eto'o and Veron scored in the first half.

In the 70th minute of the second half, Gao Han played as a substitute for Good Johnson in order to stay in the UEFA Cup midweek.

As a result, Good Johnson scored two goals in just 20 minutes, expanding the score to five to zero.

This also allowed the Icelandic striker to overtake Ibrahimovic and Eto'o with three goals and become the team's top scorer.

In this round, Arsenal challenged Manchester United away, and the two sides eventually drew zero to zero.

However, many British media have reported after the game, calling on Alpine to support Good Johnson in his position, because the three goals of the Icelandic striker this season were scored from the bench, and the efficiency was amazing.

Some media even ridiculed: "If Gao Han wants to win a bet with the media, then he should make Good Johnson the main striker!"

But more of them are still puzzled and even dissatisfied with Gao Han's continued trust in Ibrahimovic and Eto'o.

Especially in the middle of the week, Chelsea went to Slovenia to challenge the Olympia team. As a result, the Blues did not manage to score for a long time when they had a solid advantage throughout the game and created quite a few opportunities.

In the end, relying on the goal of Joe Cole, who came on the bench, he defeated the opponent one to zero.

This made Gao Han a fierce fire in the locker room after the game, and even severely trained Ibrahimovic and Eto'o, thinking that they should reflect on their performance in the game.

But three days later, I returned to London, returned to Stamford Bridge, and ushered in Aston Villa.

As a result, Chelsea's striker offense still hasn't improved much.

At the end of the eighty-eighth minute of the second half, Good Johnson once again saved the team, one to zero, and Chelsea once again saved the victory.

But this time, Gao Han did not get angry, but calmly put a harsh word in the locker room.

"I have to reconsider whether all players are worthy of this starting qualification."

This simple sentence seemed to sound like a thunder in the dressing room.

This also allowed the British media to generally ignore Chelsea's impressive record, but to hype up the shooter controversy.

The Independent, in particular, scored a big scarlet score of 7 to 2 on the front page sidebar to show their support for Henry, and their irony and sarcasm for Gao Han.

At the same time, the news about Fuzheng Good Johnson and even the introduction of Shevchenko during the winter break has once again become tumultuous.
