six finger demon

Chapter 19
Chelsea's difficult victory was matched by Manchester United's 5-0 victory over Panathinaikos at Old Trafford.

Although the Red Devils' scoring machine Ruud van Nistelrooy did not score a goal, but judging from the 90 minutes of the game, no one in Panathinaikos could keep up with Ruud van Nistelrooy's pace.

For a while, the British media jointly praised Manchester United and demoted Chelsea. This result really made the Blues feel ashamed.

Nouveau riche is nouveau riche, and when the real people see the truth, the lack of background will be fully revealed.

Just after Duff tore the "first crack", midfielder Lampard also expressed dissatisfaction with putting himself on the bench during the game.

In the just-concluded UEFA Champions League group stage, La Nieli formed a "strange array".Compared with the lineup for the previous game against Tottenham, seven people were changed at once!
Duff, who publicly "rebelled" before the game, was put on the bench. Many fans joked: "Didn't you complain that the playing time was always less than 90 minutes? Ranieri didn't let you play in the first half this time, and came on the bench in the second half. Make up 90 minutes."

But this time it's not just Duff. Like Duff, Lampard, who has started every game since the start of the season, is also "tied" to sit on the bench.

After the game, in an interview with the English media, Lampard admitted that he was "disappointed and hurt" by Ranieri's decision.He said: "It hurt me because I wanted to play in the Champions League and it was a big thing for me and everyone else. I was disappointed to be left on the bench.

Lampard publicly criticized Chelsea's "rotation system", which brought the Italian to the forefront.

Seemingly to appease Lampard, Ranieri said after the game: "Chelsea today no longer has 11 starting players. All the players are my first-line players."

At the same time, Ranieri also defended Crespo, who wasted many opportunities but occupied a valuable starting spot: "Crespo is currently difficult to adapt to the game, because his season preparation period is different from other players. But he's an intelligent player and will play better and better. He had a few good chances tonight but I wouldn't be disappointed that he didn't score. It happens to any striker, he's always creating chances, Soon he will be scoring goals for Chelsea."

Returning in a hurry from the Czech Republic, the Blues and their team reappeared at Stamford Bridge to welcome the next league match.

This season, the Blues not only have to deal with the Premier League, the Champions League, but also the FA Cup and the League Cup.

Although the first game of the latter two is still early, for the Premier League, the most important thing is to have the last laugh.

In the history of the Premier League, many teams with leading points in the league lost the championship in the last few rounds of the league because of participating in the cup. There are too many such examples.

This is a protracted battle. On the second day after returning, the team was divided into two teams and played against each other at Stamford Bridge.

As La Nieli himself said, Chelsea currently has a large number of top players.But how to combine them to play the biggest role, still needs the test of time and competition.

Like Lego, some people put together a garage with great effort, while others casually build Notre Dame Cathedral.

During this period of time, La Nieli has been under tremendous pressure. While transforming Chelsea, he must also ensure Chelsea's good results in the new season.For the Italian, it is a dragon or a worm, it depends on how long it takes him to piece together these superstars!

Every time the starting list is arranged, it is like a "magnificent gamble" for La Nieli.You must know that Abu has already started to feel dissatisfied with him. With Abu's management situation, it is a matter of minutes to poach a famous teacher!

In this match, due to Cudicini's rest in the next game, the second goal Sullivan stood in front of the goal line of the substitute team.

In his opinion, this is a signal to play in the next game!

Although Tang Wu is with Crespo and Mutu, many of the main midfielders of the main team are on the side of the substitute team this time.

On the whole, the strength of this "substitute team" is much stronger than that of the previous days.

Even so, the main team still maintains the formation of fighting in the opponent's half.Under high pressure, the substitute team can only counterattack with long passes.

But every time a long pass passes halftime, the main team will quickly stop the ball and then form an attack again.

On the sidelines, Richards was yelling instead of Ragnari.But the Italian frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

In front of the penalty area, Mutu received a header from Lampard's pass, and Sullivan blocked the ball with a single palm.But Crespo had already predicted where the ball would land and made a supplementary shot.

Seeing this, La Nieli suddenly made up his mind and said: "Richards, I have already decided that TOM will play in the game the day after tomorrow!"

"Coach, Sullivan has done his best with this ball!" Richards thought that La Nieli was dissatisfied with Sullivan's save just now.

"No, that's not the case!" Ranieli shook his head, "If TOM was allowed to keep the goal just now, Adrian would not be able to hit the ball at all."

Crespo has been very troubled recently. He has been in London for almost a month, but he hasn't even found a suitable place to live.

As Chelsea's "Mr. Ten Million", it is impossible for him to find a random apartment in the community like Tang Wu did.But the fancy villa is a little far away from Stamford Bridge, which has caused the Argentine international to spend the most recent period in the player's dormitory.

Why haven't you scored yet?

I have to score at least five in each team practice match!

Crespo has indeed begun to miss the days in Serie A, at least in Serie A, he can still score goals every three to five.Even when he is not in good shape, he will not be placed on the bench by the coach like tomorrow.

In the UEFA Champions League group match, Mutu suffered a slight injury.

But even so, tomorrow's striker starter still does not have his Crespo's name!
"Ha, that China's Tom cat can start, it seems that the coach must be blind!"

"Maybe he often picks up soap for the coach!"

"Hahahahahaha."

Recalling the scene when he saw tomorrow's starting list in the afternoon, Crespo's face darkened again while lying on the bed.

That juggler can start for the team, why can't I?
That night, Crespo, like the poor goalkeeper Sullivan, lay in bed like a pancake, unable to sleep.

On September 9, in the broadcast hall, Zhan Jun unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and moistened his throat.

In the just-concluded game, Liverpool beat Leicester 2-1 at home.

Anfield Stadium is a "blessed land" for Leicester City. In Liverpool's last 5 away games, they have won three times here.

But tonight's Anfield is more like a revolution. Many wasted opportunities have kept the Red Army away from victory many times. Goal efficiency has become the key to this revolution.

Irving's penalty kick and Heskey's unrelenting attitude towards his old club became the key to this revolution. After the game, Owen has scored 6 goals, temporarily tied for the top scorer list with Anelka and Beatty.

Such a hearty game made Zhan Jun, a hardcore fan of the Red Army, very excited. Even after the game was over, he was still echoing in Husky's soul-stirring header.

"Hey, great talent Zhan, why are you in a daze!" Huya girl shook her hand in front of Zhan Jun.

"What's the matter, Xiao Min?" Looking at the Huya girl in front of him, Zhan Jun, who was awakened from the memory, couldn't get angry.

"Brother Liu, his wife seems to be sick. He asked me to ask if you can help him get off work."

"Old Liu? The next game? Is there any other choice for him to cut first and then play?" Zhan Jun frowned. His voice was still a little hoarse after the broadcast. If there is another game, his tonsils might go on strike.

"Hey, then I don't care about it!" Huya girl grinned, and handed over an A4 paper, "Here, here are the two sides' information for the next match."

"Chelsea? Wolverhampton Wanderers?" Zhan Jun took the information and flipped through it casually, and the names of the two upcoming teams came into view. "I remember that the Wolves just entered the Premier League this year, and there is still a certain gap between them and the old Premier League powerhouses like Chelsea!"

"That's right!" Huya girl's eyes narrowed into crescent moons every time she saw Zhan Jun's familiarity with all the Premier League teams, "But that's not the point! The point is here!"

Huya girl said, flipping the information to the article about the starting players as if she was courteous, "This is the data that was just passed on, let's take a look at the great talent Zhan!"

"Forwards: Hasselbaink, Gudjohnsen" Zhan Jun casually translated from top to bottom. At the end of the reading, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on Zhan Jun's bored face, "Eh? Don Wu? He started?!"

　Happy National Day everyone!
