Super Marshal

Chapter 388: 1 step away

The defeat of Manchester United by 2-0 at home allowed Chelsea to once again defend the position of the league leader, and it also triggered a new wave of hype in the British media.

Especially in this game, Alpine rotated the team's midfielder and asked Joe Cole to replace Deco as the starter. The result was very good, and the overall strength did not decline at all, which surprised all the British media. And appreciated.

The British Times posted a photo of Gao Han holding up his fists and clenched hands after the game on its front page cover, and attached a powerful headline, the revolutionary declaration of the insurgents!

The report commented that Manchester United has always been regarded as a role model for the Premier League, winning eight times in ten years, and the resume is very amazing.

But Chelsea this season is like a revolutionary. Alpine not only brought more advanced skills and tactics, but also steadily surpassed the traditional giants Manchester United and Arsenal in performance.

In the two scenes of the suppression of the traditional giants, Chelsea handed over a nearly perfect answer, attracting more and more fans and hearts to their bodies, making all fans tired of the boring structure of the Premier League. For excitement.

In the strong dialogue, Gao Han told everyone with ironclad facts that Chelsea will completely subvert the traditional situation of the Premier League.

At the same time, the Times also published a sentence that Gao Han said at the press conference after the game.

"Beating Manchester United is more meaningful than leading the standings, because in the Premier League, everyone knows what it means to beat Manchester United. Although the league has not been halfway through, this game will have a profound impact on the Premier League this season."

But the Times also published Ferguson's counterattack at the post-match press conference.

"It has just entered December. Yes, Chelsea has a clear lead, but I think it is too early to talk about winning the championship. If they can still maintain their current lead in March next year, then I will consider admitting that they have the strength to win the championship."

According to the analysis of the Times, Ferguson's meaning is obvious, and the winter break is a problem for all Premier League teams.

Chelsea want to win the championship, yes, but first through the winter break devil schedule.

Gao Han responded in a low-key manner. It doesn't make sense to say more, the key is to prove it with actual results.

After the fourteenth round of the Premier League, Chelsea still led the standings, followed by Arsenal and Manchester United. It is basically difficult for other teams to shake the position of these three teams.

In this round, Arsenal drew with Fulham zero to zero at home, Henry once again suffered a goal shortage.

Throughout the entire game, the Gunners' performance was really sluggish, not too eye-catching.

On the contrary, it was Manchester United. Although they lost on the court, they ushered in a bumper harvest off the court.

On the same day, Manchester United CEO David Gill also announced that the American billionaire Malcolm Glazer has further increased his stake in the club. This has caused many outside media to speculate that Glazer intends to acquire Manchester United, but David Jill denied it, thinking it was just an ordinary transaction.

Both pieces of news completely concealed Manchester United's failure on the court, making everyone clearly aware that the failure on the court could hardly hinder Manchester United's success off the court, and the Red Devils Manchester United is still the most successful club in European football.

Three days after the fourteenth round, Chelsea ushered in the League Cup round of sixteen knockouts and challenged Reading in the League.

Over the weekend, in the fifteenth round of the Premier League, Chelsea played northwest and challenged Leeds away.

This young guard, which once swept Europa in the past, is currently ranked bottom, and its performance is quite sluggish.

Arsenal, Middlesbrough and Bolton also entered the semi-finals.

Over the weekend, in the seventeenth round of the Premier League, the final round before Christmas, Chelsea challenged Fulham away.

The Alpine team encountered a tenacious sniper from the team in the same city. Although they had the advantage in the first hour, they still failed to find a way to break Fulham’s goal. Finally, in the 63rd minute, they relied on Egypt. A sneak attack by Too beat Fulham with a one-to-zero victory.

After the seventeenth round, Christmas came.

…………

…………

Since last year, most of the European football has begun to tighten their pockets, every penny has to be caressed about, and even the annual Christmas carnival has begun to shrink significantly, or even cancelled.

According to Premier League tradition, in order to avoid the Christmas Devil schedule, the Christmas party should be held in advance.

But I don’t know if it’s because the management took over the team for the first time, which led to lack of experience in this area. There was not even the slightest movement in this area. It was not until Christmas that the team was temporarily notified that there was no party this year.

This made everyone in Harrington disappointed.

To say that the usual results are not satisfactory and the financial difficulties are not to be held. Now it is the leader of the Premier League. Backed by the wealthy Russian boss, it is not justified if it is not held.

At the very least, Tottenham Hotspur in North London has already taken place, and Arsenal also organized a Christmas dinner in advance. Only Chelsea had nothing and deserted, which made the players full of disappointment.

According to Gao Han's original arrangement, he was going to invite members of the coaching staff and their families to have a Christmas dinner. After all, they have helped him a lot in the past few years.

But now, seeing that the players have not landed, I just waved a big hand and had a holiday on Christmas Day, and invited all the players, as well as his family and children, to join his Christmas party in advance.

The location is in a newly opened high-end Chinese restaurant in the south of Hyde Park.

Gao Han’s invitation was immediately appreciated by all the players. After receiving the invitation text messages, everyone came to this high-end Chinese restaurant on time to attend the head coach’s Christmas party on the second day, which is Christmas Day.

At first, they didn't feel much, but when they heard the waiter in the store politely calling Gao Han the boss, and vacated the entire second floor for them to set up a Christmas party, they suddenly realized it.

It turned out that this Chinese restaurant was named after Gao Han's han.

After being discovered, Gao Han is not afraid to honestly admit that he is indeed one of the owners of this Chinese restaurant. The partner is a top celebrity chef of a very famous chain restaurant company in China. He is very familiar with Lin Xia's family and has always been interested in himself. Starting a business, Gao Han also had a good impression of him and was very talkative, so he voted and let him use his name.

But the Chinese translation is, Chinese.

This restaurant is located in the southern part of Hyde Park. The environment is very good. The decoration design is also from famous domestic artists. It has a traditional Chinese flavor and has a high style. Even the furnishings, tables, chairs and tableware are traditional Chinese style, but many have been added. The atmosphere of western food, such as bar counters, open kitchens, etc., seems to be a combination of Chinese and Western.

For Gao Han, investing in a restaurant is not a big deal. I care about making money, so I don’t care about business. Basically, I leave it to my friends to take care of my partners. Even if I have something, it’s Lin Xia. come and see.

Not long after the Chinese restaurant opened, the business is relatively average, plus Christmas, so there are fewer customers.

But Gao Han's treats and Chelsea's Christmas party naturally attracted the follow-up of British media reporters.

They all know that there are always some things happening in the Premier League’s Christmas party every year, and there are even some hot scandals.

Gao Han saw that they were also working hard, and they kept squatting outside the gate of the restaurant. It was rare to be generous at all, and asked the hotel staff to invite them all in and treat them to a sumptuous dinner.

The fact that the reporters were involved in such a fair manner made the ill-intentioned reporters feel a little ashamed, and they were not embarrassed to dig any more inside stories, and in fact, there was really nothing to shoot.

The only thing that stood out in the audience was the Alpine Christmas greetings. He encouraged all Chelsea players to guard against arrogance and rashness, and continue to encourage ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Not only to win the Premier League championship this season, Also win as many cup championships as possible.

"Not only this season, but also the next season, as well as the Champions League. All of us work hard together and forge ahead in unity. I firmly believe that no one can stop us!"

Gao Han's bold remarks also received the unanimous support and response of most players in the audience.

In the end, the Chelsea players asked their familiar reporters to take a group photo for them. Everyone surrounded the alpine group in the middle, showing the atmosphere of unity within the team.

Gao Han even jokingly said that he wanted to enlarge this photo and hang it on the wall of his office.

And this picture also appeared in major British newspapers.
