The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 308 If I don't win, I ate the ball!

Entering the late autumn of October, the weather in London is also getting colder rapidly, and there is more rain this year. At least two of the three days are cloudy and rainy, especially recently, it has been raining non-stop.

Mother Zhang Yuxiu is no stranger to this kind of weather, and said with a smile that it is a bit like a typhoon in her hometown of Xiamen.

After his father came to live in London for a while, he went back again. Huang Jinsong and his wife were traveling around Europe, and they always came to visit their daughter from time to time. They planned to stay in Europe, and there are many places here that are very good for them. attraction.

Ye Qiu has not been in a good mood recently. After breakfast, he stood in front of the sliding door on the balcony, looking out at the rainy and hazy courtyard, a little lost in thought. :2 defeated the visiting CSKA Moscow and won three consecutive victories in the group, but still under tremendous pressure.

Their league points with Arsenal quickly expanded to 5 points, and they still lost to opponents like Manchester City.

To be honest, Ye Qiu was a little worried. When they played against CSKA Moscow, the team's performance was not satisfactory. In the past few days, the training base always seemed to be filled with a depressive atmosphere, and the players seemed to be still immersed in the atmosphere. In the shadow of losing the game and ending the unbeaten record, this must not be a good thing.

Next, the team will usher in Blackburn led by Mark Hughes. This is also a hard stubble. Although Blackburn is currently deep in the relegation zone, once this team goes crazy, it is still very tenacious.

Arsenal also ushered in a college entrance examination. They are going to Manchester to challenge Manchester United. Ferguson's team is now down to 8th in the league. It is indeed time for a victory, but Ye Qiu doesn't know that Ferguson's team Whether the team has enough strength to beat the overwhelming Arsenal.

The Gunners' state of affairs this season is a bit scary, which is indeed surprising, not only Henry, Pires, Reyes and other players, but also Vieira, the French midfielder quickly walked out of the summer transfer storm, In a surprising state.

On the other hand, Chelsea's performance since this season has been depressing, and their state has been intermittent without continuity. After every national team game, the team will encounter some setbacks, either a draw or a loss.

Fortunately, October has passed, and there will be no national team competition tasks. It depends on how Ye Qiu and the coaching staff adjust the players' state, and launch an impact on Arsenal around the winter break.

In fact, Ye Qiu had already started to adjust the player's status long after he reached a tacit understanding with the coaches of the national team. A very important factor in the loss against Manchester City was that most of the main players were not on the team.

Now Ye Qiu's strategy is also very clear. The UEFA Champions League group has won three consecutive victories. The group's qualification is not a big problem. I'm afraid it's over.

Looking at the cloudy sky outside, Ye Qiu felt that the current situation in Chelsea is the same as the weather in London. If it survives, it will be sunny and rainbows. If it cannot survive, it may be heavy rain.

"Okay, I can go now!" His wife Huang Chu also finished the nutritious breakfast specially prepared by her mother-in-law Zhang Yuxiu, packed her things, changed her clothes, walked out of the room, and said to Ye Qiu.

In fact, she has only been pregnant for a short time now, and she can't tell that she is pregnant at all, but her waistline is a little fatter, and she has started to wear looser clothes, which does not have a charming charm, but Zhang Yuxiu is very stubborn about nutrition. I can't wait to stuff all the nutritious and good things into my daughter-in-law's stomach.

Ye Qiu even made fun of his mother for this, saying that if his wife gets too fat to lose weight, then he will have to work hard all his life!

Of course, this was a joke. In fact, from the moment they got married, no matter whether Huang Chu was fat or thin, Ye Qiu would never leave. This was not only the promise made during the marriage, but also because he really loved Huang Chu very much.

"Okay!" Ye Qiu smiled and nodded.

After arriving at the living room and taking the keys, Ye Qiu walked to the entrance of the dining room, "Mom, we're going to work!"

"Yeah!" Zhang Yuxiu was busy in the kitchen, "Hey, Ye Qiu, remember to bring a fish back at noon and cook soup for Ah Chu at night!"

"I know!" Ye Qiu nodded, smiled at his daughter-in-law, curled his lips, as if to say, still drinking, you are already fat enough.

Huang Chu looked helpless and aggrieved. He held Ye Qiu's coat in his hand and handed it to him for him to put on. It was cold outside, but his expression seemed to say, you think I am happy, but it's not you mom.

"You two don't dawdle there, you must be talking about me again, go to work quickly, drive slowly on the way!"

Don't listen to Zhang Yuxiu's harsh tone. In fact, she is out of concern, meaning that if you go to work early, the journey time can be longer. Sometimes it's not clear.

However, Ye Qiu and Huang Chu understood her well, and they both laughed and went downstairs to the garage.

There was a new Porsche Cayenne in the garage where there were only two Ferraris, and it was brand new. Ye Qiu bought it not long ago.

To be honest, driving a super sports car used to be very enjoyable and fun, but now I have to pick up my wife to and from work every day, Ye Qiu wants to be safe, and when Huang Chu has a big belly in the future, it will definitely not be very convenient to ride a sports car, so He made a special trip to buy a Cayenne to take Huang Chu to and from work.

"You sit in the back!" Ye Qiu pointed at the back seat, and got into the car himself.

Huang Chu made a face at him, and went directly to the back row without saying much, because Ye Qiu said that sitting in the back row was safer.

Ye Qiu was very fast when he was driving alone, but now that Huang Chu was added, he became more cautious. Even though the garage and yard at home are relatively large and it is easy to reverse the car, he is still cautious.

When I left the house, I drove lightly all the way, even on the highway, it was kept at around [-].

"Aren't you under a lot of pressure recently?" Huang Chu sat in the middle, looking at Ye Qiu from between the two front seats.

"It's okay!" Ye Qiu answered while looking ahead. "Losing is not necessarily a bad thing. The mental pressure of staying undefeated for a long time is very high. Now that you lose, it's a big deal to start all over again. It's nothing special, but it's easy."

This is indeed a difficult thing to say, the key depends on how your head coach guides.

In the recent period, Ye Qiu has asked the coaching staff's psychologists to go all out to provide psychological counseling to the players and relieve their pressure, hoping that they can try their best to avoid the depression caused by conceding the ball. Become the driving force for the team's resurgence.

Staying undefeated is like adding luggage to yourself. The more undefeated games you have, the heavier the luggage will be. Now that you have lost, throwing away these luggage will allow you to go on the road easily, and Ye Qiu has full confidence in this. Prepare.

It can be said that since the team has been undefeated for a long time, Ye Qiu has been preparing a consolation plan after losing. It's just that the team won the championship last season undefeated, and the team has never lost. The team attaches great importance to it, so this set of plans has never been used, and now that they finally lost a game, it may not be a bad thing.

"Yes, I see you. You were under a lot of pressure in the past. Now you have to start over. Just let go and don't care what those people say. Just do what you want and what you think you should do." Huang Chu I also heard some news.

Ye Qiu nodded gratefully at his wife. Although he doesn't need others to explain many things, in the end, it is always a good thing for someone to explain. At least let him know that no matter how difficult he encounters, someone will accompany him share.

The couple chatted and laughed along the way, and soon entered the urban area. After Ye Qiu sent Huang Chu to Wellington Hospital, he drove back to the Ring Expressway by himself, went all the way south, and went straight to Cobham. training base.

Cobham's security team was still very responsible. Even though it was raining, they were still on duty at the sentry post. When they saw Ye Qiu coming, they still waved at Ye Qiu from the window and sent him in.

Parked the car, trotted all the way into the training building in the rain, and went straight to the second floor.

"It's really on time, 8:30!" Roland and the others had already arrived, and when they saw Ye Qiu rushing over in the rain, they said with a smile.

According to Ye Qiu's plan, send Huang Chu to work and then come to Cobham, no more, no less, exactly 8:[-]. Of course, sometimes there is a little traffic, and he will drive faster on the expressway to make up for it. Anyway, the time is short. It's about the same.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to conduct the morning training session outside!" Ten Carter shook his head and sighed as he looked at the heavy rain outside.

It has been raining for the past few days, but basically it is relatively small, but today it is very heavy. Although it is not to the extent of heavy rain, heavy rain is certain. More dangerous, such as injury.

"Outdoor training in the afternoon, and a meeting in the morning before going to the gym!" Ye Qiu immediately made arrangements.

For Chelsea, the current training during the league is more about adjusting the player's state. Therefore, it can be done on the court, it can also be done in the gym, and it is not a problem to simply let the players rest. .

"By the way, how about the psychiatrist's assessment report?" Ye Qiu asked casually.

Roland nodded and said, "Not bad, at least I didn't find anyone crying!"

After saying this, Ye Qiu, Ten Carter and others all laughed, because the media reported that many players cried after Chelsea lost, and the source of the news was an insider, who seemed to want to use this to show that Chelsea of weakness and fragility.

"However, we really need a win right now!" Ten Carter said.

Ye Qiu nodded. He knew very well that the victory Ten Cate mentioned was not a 1:0 victory, but a victory with an absolute advantage, because only in this way can Chelsea's morale and fighting spirit be restored to the greatest extent.

"How is the player recovering?" Ye Qiu asked again.

"Ronaldinho took two games off. Manchester City and CSKA Most didn't play, and Deco and Drogba both took two games off. I did it for Drogba yesterday. He's as strong as an elephant right now!" laughed Peter Brandt, who is in charge of the team's medical and physical fitness.

Every day before each training session, the coaching staff will have the same meeting. Everyone will talk about the projects they are responsible for and their respective situations. After the exchange, the head coach will make decisions and coordinate.

It can be said that since the loss to Manchester City, Ye Qiu and everyone have been waiting for this match in the past week!
Blackburn has been winless for 3 games, and the morale of Hughes' team has obviously dropped to the bottom. This is undoubtedly very much in line with what Chelsea want now, that is, to play a big victory, preferably a hearty victory. Restore morale!

In the first two years of Souness's coaching of Blackburn, due to the investment of the club and the tough management of Souness, Blackburn's performance has increased year by year after being promoted, and even won the League Cup once. The only championship that Blackburn won, and after that, Blackburn's performance went from bad to worse.

Blackburn almost fell into the relegation zone last season, and finally only ranked 15th, and Blackburn has not strengthened the team this season, because Souness suddenly switched from Blackburn to Newcastle, which made Blackburn Unprepared, although Mark Hughes took office in a hurry in the end, many things were delayed because of this.

Speaking of it, Souness's transfer to Newcastle is also an unsolved case, because it is absolutely impossible for Souness to be called outstanding at Blackburn last season, and he could not even get a passing score. Many people think that Whether it is Steve Bruce, Venables, or even Shearer, they are more suitable than Souness to take over the Magpies, but in the end it is Souness.

Ye Qiu couldn't understand this phenomenon. He believed that even many football players in England couldn't understand such a choice, and chose Souness despite having a better head coach.

Who is Souness?
Anyone who is familiar with English football will never forget how he brought the thriving Liverpool to a slump. If the Heysel tragedy and the Hillsborough tragedy were external causes, then Souness in the 90s was Liverpool The number one culprit who turned from prosperity to decline, even now, he is still the most unpopular former Liverpool player in the eyes of Liverpool fans.

You know, he is a famous man who once brought Liverpool the highest honor, and there is no monstrous anger, will it be like this?
As for Newcastle and Blackburn, Ye Qiu was not bored enough to take part in it. He just wanted to take care of his own family, and he was targeting Mark Hughes' Blackburn, which had just been beaten at home by Middlesbrough. Fort's 0:4 massacre, morale plummeted, and there were signs of a decline.

After choosing the opponent and strategy, Ye Qiu started to discuss the game with his assistants in the office. As time passed, the players arrived at the Cobham training base one after another.

It was raining heavily, and the notice from the coaching staff was quickly conveyed to the locker room. Everyone knew that there was no training in the morning, and they went to the tactical preparation room for a meeting. Obviously, they wanted to study the game against Blackburn on the weekend. Maybe it was targeted. Tactics may need to be arranged.

But when the players were sitting in the tactical preparation room, when the head coach Ye Qiu arrived, Ye Qiu was empty-handed and didn't bring anything.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Ye Qiu walked up to the main podium with a smile, took out the seat with great determination, and sat on it.

"Oh, I understand a little bit. You must find it strange that I don't take a lot of materials and some analysis data like usual, right?" Ye Qiu still had a calm and confident smile on his face.

He knows very well that the more critical the moment, the less he can show the slightest panic, and this skill of being able to smile confidently at any time is what he has learned through hard work in the past few years, and he himself does have enough. self-confidence.

Without self-confidence, what is he going to do with Blackburn?

"I'm very strange. To play a Blackburn, do you need all of you to face the enemy? Isn't it just a Blackburn? As for it? When will you, a group of powerful Chelsea players, meet a team that may be relegated? Blackburn, have to be so careful?" Ye Qiu asked the players amusedly.

If it was said that Ye Qiu kept telling the players to be careful and prudent on weekdays, then what he said now undoubtedly greatly surprised the players, but he just wanted to do so.

What could be more convincing and boost the morale of the team than a head coach who is always cautious on weekdays telling you personally that we will be able to defeat the opponent with ease?
And if Ye Qiu just talked about it, it would be nonsense, because if you lose, you will be finished, but Ye Qiu said that he has been studying Blackburn's tactics behind his back, and he has been analyzing with the coaches all morning How to beat Blackburn.

This has the same meaning as what Mao Zedong said, despise the enemy strategically, and pay attention to the enemy tactically.

"Let me tell you, to play Blackburn, we don't need any targeted tactics, it's at Stamford Bridge, in our territory, even if Blackburn is a raptor crossing the river, he has to get down like a dog! "

"You don't care how they fight or how they do it, in short, you just go up and attack me!"

"What are we afraid of? In our territory, we are still afraid of them? Do you think we can't break through Blackburn's goal?"

"Oh, McGah, don't you laugh at me, even Middlesbrough can score them 4 goals, if you don't score 4 goals too, it looks embarrassing to me, at least 5, Even 6, that's justified!"

Ye Qiu's words were a bit bragging, because no one dared to say that he could score 5 or 6 goals, but he brought out Middlesbrough as a comparison, and this person is always eager to compare. Middlesbrough can score four goals, why can't we?How could it not work?

"Boss, are we really going all out in this game?" Captain Terry stood up and asked with concern.

"Yes, don't doubt, I know better than you the difference in strength between us and Blackburn, so I want you to attack me from the very beginning of the game, attacking desperately, without the slightest worry, because we will definitely win !"

When he said the last sentence, Ye Qiu gritted his teeth with indescribable confidence, and he believed that this could also infect the players!
"If I don't win, I'll eat the ball when I turn around!"
