The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 416 The Counterattack of the Abandoned
"Ye Qiu used details to create great victories, and Mourinho was defeated like a mountain!"

Paul Doyle, a well-known columnist of the Guardian, published his exclusive comment on the last round of the Premier League final match on the front page of the Guardian on the second day, and what he was concerned about was undoubtedly the match held at Stamford Bridge in London. a match.

Doyle criticized Mourinho at the beginning of his column, arguing, "After the game, he once again habitually wants to find a reasonable excuse for his loss, for example, he criticizes Tottenham. Tottenham played quite conservatively a lot of the time and Chelsea had a big advantage."

"But this kind of statement can only deceive those fans who have never even watched the game. If anyone has watched this game in person, they will definitely not agree with his statement, because his so-called initiative does not depend on the team. It looks more like it was given by Tottenham Hotspur's tactical concessions."

"The well-known sports commentator Cascarino once criticized Mourinho in this way, thinking that he lacks the most basic demeanor. He is a bit smug when he wins, but he always makes excuses for himself when he loses. Always feel that the opponent wins is unfair, doubt the opponent, as time goes by, this seems to have become a habit of him to shirk responsibility."

"We all know that no one is perfect in this world, everyone has shortcomings and shortcomings, everyone will fail when they are depressed, and everyone will inevitably encounter setbacks, which is not terrible, no People will criticize a person for always winning, but the most critical question is how do you view failure!"

"Another approach that is completely different from Mourinho comes from Ye Qiu. Whenever the team loses, he will take responsibility, but this does not mean that he is pampering the players. According to what we learned from Ye Qiu From what he has learned from the teams he has coached, Ye Qiu upholds a principle, externally, take the initiative to take responsibility, internally, criticize what should be criticized, and punish what should be punished."

"Many people say that Ye Qiu gives people a better impression, and Mourinho's image sucks. Why? Because Ye Qiu will admit it after losing a game and dare to take responsibility, because in his opinion, losing is always There is only one explanation, and that is that the opponent has played better than you, and Mourinho's first reaction after losing is to look for excuses."

"Finding excuses after losing, and then putting yourself in a position where you have been treated unfairly, is not only a kind of slander and humiliation to your opponent, it arouses dissatisfaction and indignation of your opponent, and it is also easy to cause your own psychological problems. A kind of dislocation in the world, as time goes by, it will become like an enemy of the whole world."

"It's like this game, Mourinho said, his team had the advantage for a long time, but if you look at the process of the game, Chelsea seems to have a lot of shooting opportunities, but most of the shots are long shots. , obviously they didn't create many scoring chances, but more of a lucky shot from long distance to finish the shot."

"I believe that everyone who often watches football knows that the success rate of long-range shots is low, and such shooting methods are generally used when positional warfare cannot be effective, but Mourinho obviously will not say this, and It was just a matter of insisting that I had more shots than Tottenham, so it wasn't fair to lose."

"Tottenham Hotspur's offensive quality is obviously higher. This can be seen from the fact that they don't have many shots, but almost every shot creates a threat. They don't even have many long-range shots. It is a more impressive one. It was Messi's volley, but I believe all Chelsea fans will never forget that shot!"

"What I want to say is that Mourinho dare not admit the fact that he lost, but everyone knows that he lost, and he lost very badly. He has already firmly grasped the fact that he lost. The league championship trophy in his hand, and if we want to carefully analyze the reasons for Mourinho's loss, I think it is mainly reflected in the details and on-the-spot command."

"Anyone who has watched the game will be full of praise for the free kick that Tottenham Hotspur equalized, whether it was from Beckham's kick, Ruud van Nistelrooy's sudden strafing, or Ribery's interference. And blocking John Terry, even Tottenham Hotspur's full pressure on the back point, all show the wisdom of this team's cooperation this time."

"Another very interesting scene is that in the second half, Mourinho originally asked Duff to warm up, and Ye Qiu also asked Arbeloa to warm up at the first time, but the final result was that Duff and Arvelo Yadu didn't come off the bench."

"And at the last and most critical moment, when Chelsea's physical fitness began to be insufficient, Mourinho chose to trust Joe Cole, while Ye Qiu chose to change the team's offensive method, replacing the top scorer Ruud van Nistelrooy with Van Persie, No matter in terms of effect or the courage of substitutions shown in the game, Ye Qiu is obviously better than Mourinho."

"This is a success or failure determined by the details, which is indeed very surprising, because in everyone's impression, Tottenham Hotspur did not have the strength to keep pace with Chelsea, but through this game In the game, what we saw was a Premier League team that could at least go head-to-head with Chelsea."

At the end of the column, Paul Doyle congratulates Tottenham Hotspur for qualifying for the Champions League next season, but at the same time he is also wary of Tottenham Hotspur, because this team is not perfect and there are Obvious weaknesses and deficiencies.

"We have all noticed that Tottenham Hotspur is more inclined to attack and use offense to destroy opponents. This has certain advantages in the league, but once it comes to the Champions League, which pays more attention to offensive and defensive balance, Tottenham Hotspur There will be greater challenges."

"Another very obvious weakness is the central defender. Thiago Silva's ability to take the ball and play the ball is really good, but this central defender's defense when he meets a strong high center forward has obvious shortcomings. He was responsible for Chelsea's first goal and Drogba has been a nightmare for him in the past few games."

Unlike Paul Doyle of the Guardian, Martin Samuel, a well-known columnist of the Times, used a simpler column title, Counterattack of the Abandoned!

"It was a game dominated by a castaway because the three goals that were decisive in this game were played by a castaway."

"Chelsea's first goal was Lampard assisting Ballack, but I believe everyone will not doubt that after Drogba leaned on Thiago Silva with his body, he passed the kick to Lampard. The ball is the decisive factor in the process of scoring a goal, and Drogba, who was sidelined by Mourinho at the beginning, was judged by Abramovich and many fans as a low-level center forward, and even Ye Qiu Leaving Stamford Bridge angrily for defending Drogba."

"We all noticed that when Drogba expressed friendship with Ye Qiu before and after the game, many fans booed. I had a doubt in my heart at the time, why do you boo? Just because you are Chelsea fans? Or, did you support Drogba?"

"When Drogba encountered a crisis of confidence, and the management even expressed time and time again that they would introduce Shevchenko to replace Drogba, these fans who booed Drogba were the management's accomplices, only Ye Qiu remained firm Unswervingly supporting Drogba, even resigning because of it, now Drogba is friendly with Ye Qiu, what qualifications do you have to boo?"

"Tottenham Hotspur's equalizer goal was co-directed by Beckham, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Ribéry and even a number of Tottenham Hotspur players, and Beckham was taken by Royal this season. What Madrid abandoned, Fabio Capello's Real Madrid failed to win the championship this season, and Beckham was reborn in Tottenham Hotspur."

Ruud van Nistelrooy, the former ace striker of Manchester United, became Carrick's transfer last summer. He was abandoned by Manchester United, but his shot saved Manchester United the league championship trophy. Knowing that Ferguson should be proud of this? Or feel helpless and embarrassed? Especially seeing Ruud van Nistelrooy scoring so many goals this season, what does he think?"

"Tottenham's last goal, dominated by four players, pulled to the right, Messi, who created space for his team-mates, and Fabregas, who went straight behind Fabregas, ran to the right and scored. Van Persie, who hit the ball across the middle, and Ribery, who outflanked the goal, and it just so happens that these four players are all ex-Chelsea players who were abandoned by Mourinho last season."

"Mourinho's explanation has convinced many people. He said that the reason why he doesn't like these four players is because he prefers a power style of play, and they are incompatible with his characteristics, but if we analyze carefully, It is not difficult to see that the midfielder that Mourinho relies on is the combination of Deco and Makelele, neither of which is powerful. When the team fails to start the game, Mourinho trusts Joe Cole , also not a power player."

"This is actually a contradiction, and through the facts, we can make a judgment. There was only one reason why Mourinho abandoned these four players. They were players introduced and trusted by Ye Qiu, so Mourinho Ao wants to give them up, I guess, this is why Ribery and his four players are particularly excited once they play against Chelsea."

"This is a counterattack of the outcasts. These players used this game to re-prove the simplest fact in football, but at the same time it has been forgotten by countless fans, that is, there is no The best players, only the most suitable players!"

"When we saw Ronaldinho shine at Chelsea and Barcelona, ​​when we saw Kaka at AC Milan, when we saw Cristiano Ronaldo turn out at Manchester United, when we Fantastic to see Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ribery at Tottenham"

"At this time, let's not forget that behind their outstanding performance, there is always a set of overall team tactics that silently serve them, and for a team, the only criterion for selecting players is suitability. , not the best!"

The reports of two well-known columnists in The Guardian and The Times are all focused on the game between Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, but at the same time, there are also many newspaper commentators who are concerned about the last round of the Premier League. The situation of the final battle.

As for Manchester United successfully retaining the league championship trophy, everyone thinks that the person Ferguson should be most grateful to is Ye Qiu's Tottenham Hotspur, because if it weren't for Tottenham Hotspur's goal at the most critical moment and defeated Chelsea and Manchester United may be missing the league championship trophy while crying.

For Tottenham Hotspur's 2:1 reversal of Chelsea, the media and fans have given a very high evaluation, thinking that this game determines the ownership of the Premier League championship this season, and Ribery's goal at the last moment, It allowed Manchester United to win the championship, and at the same time made the French star completely among the ranks of first-class stars.

Many people, including the French superstar Zidane, asserted that Ribéry's future is extremely bright, and he is fully capable of going to a better team to show his strength to his heart's content. Even the Spanish newspaper Marca and AS reported revealed that both Real Madrid and Barcelona are interested in Ribery.

Tottenham Hotspur rejected all the temptations from the outside world, especially Real Madrid, which missed the league title this season. And Manchester United threw out the asking price, the target is Ribery, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Unsurprisingly, both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United rejected it, saying that the players are not for sale.

But obviously, with the excellent performance and performance of Tottenham Hotspur in the second half, this group of stars in the team has also attracted more and more attention from the media and giant teams. Fortunately, this season Tottenham Hotspur Tottenham Hotspur have advanced to next season's Champions League as the third place in the Premier League, which is bound to give Tottenham Hotspur more bargaining chips to retain players.

After all, for this group of young players, they are now in a very important stage of self-improvement and transformation. It is risky to leave Tottenham Hotspur, which has laid the foundation, and go to an unfamiliar team. It's too big, maybe it just fell down by accident.

Similarly, with Tottenham Hotspur's active wing attack, Vargas and Alves on the two wings have also received affirmation and attention from the outside world, especially Alves, and the media even predicted the player's success. His net worth was as high as 3000 million euros, but Ye Qiu also denied such rumors.

As the Premier League came to an end, Manchester United won the championship, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool all successfully qualified for the Champions League next season, Arsenal lost 0:1 at home to West Ham United, and finally missed the next season The UEFA Champions League qualification can only be forced to play in the UEFA Cup, and West Ham striker Tevez, who scored the only goal in this game, is famous.

Immediately after the end of the Premier League, it was revealed by the media that Ferguson hoped to introduce Tevez from West Ham, but West Ham denied it, saying that Tevez would not leave the Hammers, and the player himself refused to be interviewed .

Although the league has just ended and the transfer market has been full of turmoil, whether it is Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United or Chelsea, the three teams have obviously adopted a relatively low-key strategy because they still have two crucial games. The final is going to be played.

Tottenham Hotspur will play the UEFA Cup final at Hampden Park Stadium in Glasgow, Scotland on May 5. The opponent is the Spaniard. This is the home of the Scottish national team, and the strength of the Spaniard should not be underestimated. Especially the team's number one striker Raul Tamudo.

However, although Tottenham Hotspur continued to play the UEFA Cup final after eight consecutive Premier League No.30 rounds, it is still relatively favorable in terms of schedule, because the UEFA Cup final is Tottenham Hotspur's last game , and there are still five rounds of matches in La Liga, but the Spaniards can already be said to have no desires, neither will be relegated, nor will they continue to qualify for European competitions, so they will also fully prepare for the league cup final.

And the captain of the Spaniard, Raul Tamudo, almost took the lead after the opening. He used Hangeland's pass error and almost made a goal. Fortunately, Petr Cech abandoned the goal. Striking out, Raul Tamudo's one-handed save saved the team.

With the crisis after the opening, Tottenham Hotspur gradually stabilized the situation, slowly brought the game into its own rhythm, and began to play the traditional fast-paced offensive and defensive battles of the Premier League, and used them successively in the first half. Goals from Ruud van Nistelrooy and Hangelander took the lead 2-0.

Among them, Hangeland's goal was benefited from a corner kick from Beckham, which accurately created a chance for Hangeland to score with a header, while Ruud van Nistelrooy's goal came from Arshavin's pass from the right. ball.

After taking the lead in the first half, Tottenham played more relaxed in the second half. The overall strength of the Spaniard was not as good as that of Tottenham. Although Ye Qiu kept reminding the players to be careful of Raul Tamudo, but for the Spaniard In terms of overall strength, Ye Qiu felt that Tottenham Hotspur had an advantage, even a considerable advantage.

In the second half, the Spaniard couldn't bear to press out to play, while Tottenham was in the 71st minute. Van Persie, who came on as a substitute for Ruud van Nistelrooy, received an overhead pass from Beckham. After stopping the ball, he turned and hit the goal, making another victory for Tottenham Hotspur.

However, in the 86th minute, Raul Tamudo finally scored for the Spaniard, but in the end, the La Liga team still lost the UEFA Cup final 1:3.

With this victory, Tottenham Hotspur won the second championship trophy of the season.

Although the UEFA Cup championship is a bit tasteless now, its influence is not great, and it can even be said to be very small, but in any case, for Tottenham Hotspur, this is a championship trophy after all. The team can win this season The two champions of the League Cup and the UEFA Cup, Tottenham Hotspur fans are also surprised and satisfied.

Especially on the same day, Mourinho's Chelsea finally defeated Manchester United in a penalty shootout in the FA Cup final, successfully won a championship this season, and avoided the embarrassment of the team being empty-handed.

This also makes Tottenham Hotspur unbelievably relying on two tasteless championship trophies to become the only double champion of the Premier League this season.

And when the team returned to London from Scotland, they were immediately greeted by cheers from all the Tottenham Hotspur fans. Chelsea, who returned to London on the same day as Tottenham Hotspur, won the FA Cup, but I didn't even celebrate, I just put it in the room of honor after I came back and it's over.

In the words of some Tottenham Hotspur fans sarcastically speaking, maybe they feel shabby!
