Chapter 644 Strong Defense
Manchester United players came in to warm up, and players with good relations between the two sides said hello.
For example, Pogba and Giroud, who are both teammates of the French national team, have a good relationship.
Another example is French national team teammates Cesc Fabregas and Mata, who also hugged each other in a friendly way.
There were also Belgians Lukaku, Hazard and Courtois who also chatted together.
After Xia Xing came on the stage, the two friends quickly walked over.
"Xia!"
"N'Golo! Danny!"
It was Kanter and Drinkwater who came to Xia Xing.
Looking at his two friends, Xia Xing was in a very good mood, but he was mixed with joys and worries.
Fortunately, Kante has grown into one of the best defensive midfielders in the world at Chelsea.
Since joining Chelsea in 2016, he has become Chelsea's absolute core midfielder.
Manchester United's summer trip, Chelsea's Kante.
These two are definitely the strongest defensive midfielders in the Premier League, bar none.
Of course, this treats Xia Xing as a defensive midfielder.
For example, some people regard Manchester United's Xia Xing and Chelsea's Hazard as the strongest attacking midfielders in the Premier League.
In general, Kanter has a very high status, both in the club and in the national team.
Drinkwater's situation is much worse.
It was not Conte's original intention for him to join Chelsea, so he did not get many playing opportunities under Conte.
Let alone being entrusted with important responsibilities.
He is still a substitute player in this game.
In the one year since he joined the team, he has wasted time, and it is difficult to see the all-around midfielder with excellent running ability during the Blue Fox period.
Looking at his old friend in a bad situation, Xia Xing felt deeply regretful.
But this is the path they chose themselves.
I have to go on gritting my teeth.
After the warm-up, the players from both sides returned to the locker room.
Mourinho looked at the players in front of him, his expression and tone were calm.
It seems that this is not a final, but an ordinary league game.
It's still a league that doesn't matter after winning the championship early.
“Boys, you’ve made it this far again, I’m so proud and so proud of you.
"Manchester United is a wealthy team with a strong foundation and a top-notch team.
“So in some of our important games, it’s impossible for everyone to play.
"Believe me, I would even want each of you to start more often if you could.
"But that's unrealistic,
"So, I leave the FA Cup and League Cup to you,
"And you have given back the expectations of the team and fans with your outstanding performance!
“The moment of winning the League Cup is still fresh in my mind, and the FA Cup is just around the corner!
“We have tremendous confidence in all of you!
"After 90 minutes, let's win the championship trophy again.
"Become the King of England this season!"
There is nothing wrong with the phrase "King of England".
After all, Manchester United is about to win all the domestic championships in England this season.
Premier League champions, League Cup champions and even a Community Shield champion.
If they win the FA Cup this season, he will become England's four domestic champions this season.
Comprehensively defended various domestic championships.
For two consecutive seasons, Mourinho made Premier League history.
Soon.
So today, although they are only on the bench, the Manchester United soldiers are united and looking forward to a big victory.
At this time in the Chelsea dressing room, Conte's expression was unexpectedly calm and his mind was calm.
In the previous few Premier League games, Conte still had a high-pressure management policy for the team.
This is his characteristic.
Speaking of which, there are many similarities with Chelsea during Mourinho's time.
They are all strict in running the army, they are all running in the whole field, and they are all fighting hard.
But as he lost control of the team, the players no longer listened to him so much.
Especially in the last two league games, the players' tactical execution was very poor, which made Conte furious on the sidelines.
But now, his mood is unusually stable.
Looking at all the players, he spoke in a rare and eloquent tone.
"It's been two years since I came to Chelsea.
“Looking back, the press conference announcing my appointment felt like it had just happened.
"Here, I have had many expectations and dreams,
"For example, helping the team win the Premier League championship, or leading the Blues to win the Champions League,
"We did pretty well last season and were very close to winning the Premier League.
“I thought my results would improve this season.
"But unfortunately,
"Unfortunately.
"I can tell you now unequivocally that this is my last game at Chelsea.
"hehe.
“I believe some people will be in a good mood.
"But I also believe that even those who are dissatisfied with me should just have different ideas.
“We don’t have any hatred, do we?
"We're all here to win, right?
“So this last game, our goals are the same.
"Looking at the main roster, some guys have been unhappy with me.
"But I didn't deliberately target or hide it, and I still arranged for him to start.
"Because he is an excellent player at Chelsea and I am also a professional coach.
“I will not do anything that uses power for personal gain.
“So today, I hope to see a hard-fought game!
“It’s hard to say whether we can beat Manchester United, after all, they are too strong this season.
“But I expect you to go all out and charge Manchester United!
“In this game, we will not only fight for victory or defeat, but also for fighting spirit!
“I hope that our last team-up can leave something valuable for Chelsea!
“Come on, boys!
“Good luck to you and us!”
The players from both sides ran onto the court, and the referee blew the whistle, and the game began!
Manchester United still maintains the old tradition and plays steadily.
Especially the midfield line, which is pulled very far back.
Steady defense at the beginning, this is Mourinho’s strategy for this game.
But Chelsea doesn’t care so much, they quickly advance and attack Manchester United’s half.
Two wingers quickly advance!
Very active!
In the 4th minute of the game, Barkley on the right took the lead!
He sprinted with the ball and directly broke through Rashford’s grab!
When Xia Xing pressed, he decisively knocked it sideways!
The ball found Fabregas!
Fabregas kept The ball, please directly touch the ball!
The ball came to the right again!
But he didn't look for Barkley!
Instead, he looked for Azpilicueta who was advancing quickly behind him!
Barkley used his body to block the direction of Xia Xing's defense, creating an opportunity for his teammates!
This time their defense against Xia Xing was very successful!
Azpilicueta sprinted quickly, received the ball, and made a decisive cross!
His passing skills were quite good!
The ball went straight to the middle of the penalty area!
But it was not caught by the Chelsea players!
Manchester United vice-captain Carrick quickly retreated and took the lead to clear the ball!
Manchester United escaped!
Wonderful defense! (End of this chapter)
