I work as a coach at Stamford Bridge

Chapter 11: Another Victory in the League

Back in London, Yunqiao only gave half a day off to the players who played in the League Cup, and everyone else was training normally. The last game in September will be played on the 29th, and the time is very tight.Fortunately, the opponents in this round are not strong. Fulham is also located in London. London is a city with the most teams in the Premier League, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham and so on.

Fulham did not start this season very well. They only won one game in the first 7 rounds, drew 3 games, and lost 3 games. They are ranked 17th in the Premier League. This season, they seem to be moving towards the relegation zone.

The mid-week victory over Hull City, Yunqiao was almost praised by the media, and he also scored a big score that was rarely seen during the Mourinho period. Most people think that this young coach has a stronger position in Chelsea. But it's not absolute, age is still everyone's concern about him, but the media all agree that Fulham has no ability to stop Yunqiao.

In this league, Yunqiao sent what he thought was the ideal lineup, goalkeeper Petr Cech, the back line lined up, Ashley Cole, Terry, Carvalho, Ferreira, midfielder Lampard and Ballack , the veteran Makelele on the midfielder, this is indispensable in this Chelsea team, Drogba on the forward is at the forefront, and Joe Cole and Kalu stand behind him.

Fulham sent veteran Keller as the goalkeeper. He is a real veteran. He is 38 this year. Even if the goalkeeper has a long sports career, 38 years old is really old enough, faster than Yunqiao It's a big round.

The referee of this game is Atkinson, the famous Premier League whistler. This game is scheduled for 3 pm on Saturday in the UK, and it is the earliest game of this round.

Yunqiao’s 433 formation is an attacking formation. Although he keeps saying that he can play any tactics as long as he can win the game, it can be seen from his plan to use 433 as the main formation. Yunqiao is also a coach who likes to play offensive football. .It's just that he is more brazen than other offensive football coaches and puts more emphasis on defense.

In the opening 2 minutes, Chelsea got a good chance. Kalu passed the ball to Drogba in the penalty area from the right. The ball flew, and Yunqiao, like all Chelsea fans, held their heads in disappointment.Then Terry was hit in the face by his opponent and fell to the ground during the fight. Fortunately, the injury was not serious, and the team doctor continued the game after simple treatment.

Yunqiao pressed his hands down a few times and told Lampard and Ballack to control the rhythm and take their time. Chelsea played a little fast in the opening period. Although there were one or two chances, the formation was a bit messed up.Lampard nodded to indicate that he knew.

The two sides came and went, and the fans kept shouting. Today, more than 4 people came to Stamford Bridge, and it was almost full. You must know that the entire stadium can only accommodate more than 4 people.

In the 7th minute, Kalou got a good chance. He got the football on the right side of the front court, cut inward laterally, and suddenly kicked and shot from the edge of the penalty area. Unfortunately, this kick missed the goal frame.

Chelsea wasted two good opportunities in a row, but was almost scored by the opponent first. In the 13th minute, Davis kicked a pass and crossed Ferreira's head. Dempsey shook his head 3 meters in front of the goal, and the football rubbed against the post to draw the bottom line.Yunqiao broke out in a cold sweat.

In the 18th minute, Chelsea opened the scoring. Makelele pressed into the frontcourt, received a wrong pass from Ashley Cole, and hit Drogba in the middle. He volleyed vigorously without stopping the ball, and was replaced by Keller to the left. At this time, Joe Cole just ran to the position. After intercepting the ball, he pushed and shot a near corner.

This is already Joe Cole's third goal this season. This season, he is about to take off completely.

After celebrating, Yunqiao and the assistant coaches hurriedly drank a bottle of water to suppress the shock. The rhythm is still a bit fast. Maybe Fulham wanted to speed up, but Chelsea could only follow suit. Now the team has no ability to control the rhythm of the audience. .

Still need to practice more, if there is a tacit understanding between the players, it is possible to control the rhythm.Yunqiao decided to practice this tactic in the future.

After a goal was scored, Fulham's offense accelerated. Only 1 minute later, Dempsey received a long pass from his teammate and scored the goal, but was called offside by the referee. Terry finally took a step forward, just to let Dempsey is in an offside position.

In the 27th minute, it was Joe Cole again who dribbled the ball straight to the opponent's three defenders in the midfield and was blocked by the defender when it was passed to Drogba. Le's left side rushed into the goal. Before he got up, he was pressed down by Drogba, and the other players rushed up one by one, stacking Arhat.

As soon as the goal was scored, Yunqiao clenched his fist and punched the air a few times, that's great, this guy is so fucking down-to-earth, treat him to a big meal tonight.

The next game was controlled by Chelsea. In the 31st minute, Kalou scored on the right side. Drogba took the ball and adjusted it one step, and shot it to the top corner of the goal. Unfortunately, he was not strong enough and fast, and Keller took it down with both hands. Three minutes later, it was Joe Cole who broke through the defender and sent a flat ball. Drogba missed the ball with a shovel shot from the back. After getting up, he immediately complained to the referee that the opponent's defender Verdela was in the small penalty area. He gave himself a bit, but Atkinson showed Drogba a yellow card, and he was too emotional.Seeing that the referee had all played their cards, Joe Cole and Kalou hurried over to pull the Ivorians away.

"Steve, why is Didier so impulsive?" Yunqiao looked at assistant coach Steve Clark.

"It may be that the media has always said recently that he does not have Sheva's scoring ability." Steve said softly in Yunqiao's ear.

It turned out that Sheva's sudden outburst made Drogba feel a sense of crisis, but he may not be so excited to gain good results.

The game lasted until the end of the first half, and the two sides entered the locker room 2-0.

In the locker room, Yunqiao once again emphasized that the game should be pulled into our rhythm, just like in the last 15 minutes of the first half, he especially told Lampard and Ballack, they are Chelsea's metronome on the field.

But at this time the team doctor brought him bad news. Terry's facial injury is not very optimistic. It is best not to play in the second half, fearing that it will affect the next game.There will be the second round of the Champions League in the middle of next week. Yunqiao accepted the judgment of the team doctor and replaced Terry with Alex before the start of the second half.

At the beginning of the second half, Yunqiao asked the team to attack for another 10 minutes. The opponent will definitely attack at this time, and use offense to deal with offense. He knows that Chelsea's offensive ability will definitely be stronger than Fulham.

In the first minute of the game, Joe Cole got a chance. He took the ball from the right and broke through the defender to cross the middle. move.Kalou shot in the middle of the goal and was slammed by Keller. After the ball hit the post and bounced out of the bottom line, he gave Joe Cole a thumbs up.

So far, the best player on the field is Joe Cole.

In the 50th minute, Kalou got another chance, Ashley Cole accurately hoisted into the penalty area with a cross from the left, and Kalou raised the football without any defense.

Since then, the game has entered the rhythm of Chelsea. After being beaten a few times, Fulham did not dare to attack, at least the defenders did not dare to step forward to assist.

In the 68th minute, Drogba took a free kick on the right side of the front of the penalty area. The football flew across the wall and fell in front of the goal. Unfortunately, Drogba didn't score a goal today and flew out of the baseline by rubbing against the goal post.Not only did he fail to score a goal, but in the 73rd minute, when he was grabbing a high ball with the opponent's defender, he raised his foot and kicked the opponent. Atkinson first showed a yellow card and then sent a ruby ​​card.

When passing by Yunqiao, he said "I'm sorry" to Yunqiao, and Yunqiao just patted him on the shoulder and asked him to go back to the locker room.Today's Drogba is a bit irritable. It seems that Sheva puts a lot of pressure on him. Yunqiao feels that he needs to have a good talk with him when he returns to Comam.

Luckily, Yun Qiao started complaining about losing one player in two consecutive rounds.However, Fulham is not Manchester United, Yunqiao did not let the team shrink back, and still played according to the previous rhythm.

In the end, neither side changed the score again. Chelsea beat Fulham 2-0. Yunqiao won three consecutive victories since taking office and two consecutive league victories.
