LRAB Chapter 478
Chapter 478
Under the same sky, Stamford Bridge.
The arrogant Portuguese man arrived at the post-match press conference slowly.
Compared to the high-spirited and black hair when he entered the Premier League in early July 2004, in just two years, Jose Mourinho's hair has become white.
"Come on, let's finish it quickly."
However, Jose Mourinho, who stood on the podium, still spoke with a familiar tone.
Although Chelsea was defeated 5:1 by Manchester City in the Community Shield, Mourinho successfully stabilized the situation after several months of running-in.
The recent results are the best explanation, and today Chelsea also successfully defeated Newcastle 3:0 without bloodshed.
So Mourinho is in a good mood today.
However.
When the gossipy Premier League media relayed Stewart's post-match speech just now, the madman's anger was instantly ignited.
Mourinho lowered his voice and gritted his teeth.
"So you mean that Stewart and his team can easily beat us in the next round?"
"Uh... I must reiterate, Mr. Mourinho, this is not my idea, but Mr. Stewart's original words."
The reporter who asked the question felt Mourinho's death gaze, and sweated profusely in an instant, and hurried to explain.
"Are you sure it's the original words?"
"Uh... 100% sure. You can watch the interview clip after the game."
"Okay. Thank you for your retelling."
After Mourinho confirmed that the reporter did not exaggerate, his anger became even greater.
He regarded Manchester City as a respectable opponent, but he did not expect Manchester City to despise Chelsea so much.
And he also attributed the root of everything to the disastrous defeat in the Community Shield. Yes, it must be because of that game that Stewart became like this.
"Then let's see. I'm looking forward to Stuart fulfilling his promise to beat us easily."
After saying this, Jose Mourinho left the scene without looking back. He had no interest in answering other questions.
He just wanted to go back to the locker room now.
Bring the players back to the training base and start preparing for the next round of the match against Manchester City.
..................................................................
On the other side, Stuart was sitting on the return bus.
Still regretting his overly exaggerated speech.
Facing Chelsea.
A beautiful victory.
I'm afraid that the head coach of any European giant club would not dare to say this.
Stuart was not stupid enough to think that the team could replicate the bloodbath in the Community Shield in the next game.
At that time, Chelsea had just completed the transfer and forced Shevchenko into the starting lineup, playing a complete mess.
But now.
Chelsea has completed the running-in, and Shevchenko has also adapted to the confrontation and rhythm of the Premier League. This season, he has played 10 times for Chelsea and contributed 5 goals and 4 assists.
And Didier Drogba has played 16 times, 10 goals and 3 assists. The beast is playing the best season since he came to the Premier League.
Don’t look at Chelsea’s league results this season. It is only ranked third for the time being, and it is still behind Manchester United.
But everyone with a discerning eye knows that it is because Chelsea has focused on the Champions League. In the Champions League group stage, they have achieved 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss with Barcelona, Werder Bremen and other strong opponents.
The two encounters with Barcelona were 1:0 win and 2:2 draw.
In other words.
Chelsea’s current strength will only be stronger than last season.
A beautiful victory?
Stewart is not even 100% sure of winning.
But now the words have been said.
It’s also pretending.
We can only bite the bullet and grit our teeth to prepare for this tough battle.
This will also be the most difficult game in the first half of this season's league.
.........................................................
The 16th round of the Premier League has come to an end, and the post-match interviews of Stewart and Mourinho have become the biggest hot spot.
The interest of all Premier League fans.
They are attracted by the upcoming 17th round of the Premier League, the showdown between the two biggest rivals of last season.
The media began to warm up with overwhelming and exaggerated news.
"Manchester City and Chelsea are fighting again!"
"Stewart: We will easily beat Chelsea, just like the Community ShieldSame as in the game! 》
《The ultimate showdown between the old king and the new king! 》
《A detailed account of the two encounters between Manchester City and Chelsea last season! 》
《Classic event review: Manchester City 9320 miracle! 》
Not only the media, but also the fans of the two teams have started a war of words in football forums and online.
Since last season, both sides have long been resentful of each other.
-【Yes! I really appreciate Stewart's speech. Chelsea's short-lived glory is over. Now the Premier League belongs to Manchester City! 】
-【Fuck you! Manchester City only won the double championship in one season, and didn't even win the Champions League. It's totally unworthy! 】
-【Really? So do you Chelsea have the Champions League? 】
-【Haha, this year, this year, we Chelsea will definitely win the Champions League! 】
-【Don't shout 9320 background board, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit! This year, we, Manchester City, have also entered the knockout stage of the Champions League. You'd better pray that you don't meet us in the Champions League, because you can't win at all! ]
-[Ridiculous! Big win? I want to see what Manchester City can do to beat us again. Just lose to Villa 0:2? ]
-[Fuck your mother! Dare to make an offline appointment? I'll wait for you at the Manchester Macho Bar! ]
-[Who's afraid of who? Come to the TOC Bar in London if you dare! ]
...........................................................
The media hype and the verbal battle between fans lasted for a whole week.
That is, a week later.
On December 16, the 17th round of the Premier League arrived.
Su Fei landed in London with his teammates.
Then he took a bus to Stamford Bridge.
At three o'clock in the afternoon.
Stamford Bridge, located in the Fulham district of London, has been surrounded by a crowd of fans from all directions.
The fans wearing dark blue Chelsea jerseys turned into a surging blue ocean.
"Blue is the colour, football is the game~"
"We're all together~"
"And winning is our aim~"
The Blues fans sang Chelsea's team song "Blue Is The Colour" and waved the Blue Lions flag.
When the bus carrying Manchester City players slowly passed the crowd, many Chelsea fans cursed around.
"Fxxxk M.C.!"
"Fxxxk M.C.!"
"Fxxxk M.C.!"
Even through a layer of car windows, Su Fei could clearly feel the anger and unfriendliness from Chelsea fans.
The relationship between the two clubs.
Perhaps it has reached the worst moment in a hundred years.
When the bus arrived at the parking lot.
Stuart looked serious and hurried to the pre-match press conference.
The Premier League media certainly would not miss the opportunity to bring up Stuart's remarks last week.
The reporter who asked the question changed his way of expression.
"Mr. Stewart, you said last time that you wanted to beat Chelsea by a large margin. The game will start soon. How many goals do you expect to win against Chelsea?"
For this question.
After hesitating for a long time, Stewart put out three fingers and then retracted one.
"2 goals! I think we can win Chelsea by 2 goals today!"
