With Leeds United's four-goal defeat to Leicester City on 16 September, all 10 matches in the fifth round of the 2003/04 Premier League season have come to an end. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 InfoArsenal, who were unexpectedly held to a draw by Portsmouth led by the elder Redknapp, lead the league table with four wins and one draw, while defending champions Manchester United are just one point behind the Gunners with four wins and one loss. Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson, the old rivals, have announced that no matter how many contenders emerge, Arsenal and Manchester United will be the strongest contenders for the Premier League title!

The most shocking game was the head-to-head clash between George Nelson's Tottenham Hotspur and Claudio Ranieri's Chelsea. Chelsea at home relied on two quick counter-attacks to build a two-goal lead at one point, but that was the end of the Blues' brilliant performance. After that, Tottenham Hotspur launched a wave of counterattack to beat the conservative Chelsea to the ground, Drogba, Carrick and Robbie Keane all three arrows to help Tottenham Hotspur defeat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge with three goals and win a very wonderful victory!

With just two wins, one draw and one defeat in the first five rounds to accumulate seven points (the third round of the Premier League between Chelsea and Birmingham City was postponed due to weather), this is clearly unacceptable for Chelsea and Roman Abramovich, who are ambitious and trying to challenge the authority of Arsenal and Manchester United. Therefore, after the defeat to Tottenham, Ranieri was under intense pressure from both the fans and the Chelsea hierarchy!

You know, last season's Chelsea, who could follow in Leeds' footsteps at any time, were able to finish fourth in the Premier League, and after a summer of reinforcements, the Blues' results have not improved accordingly, which naturally has to make people doubt Ranieri's coaching ability. In other words, people question whether Ranieri has what it takes to become the manager of a big club!

After all, there has never been a shortage of managers in the football world who can achieve eye-catching results in small and medium-sized clubs, but their results are a mess after entering the big clubs. Given Ranieri's previous coaching experience at Atletico Madrid, it's inevitable that people will be skeptical.

Ranieri also knows in his heart that the club has invested so much this summer in order to compete with Arsenal and Manchester United for the Premier League title. Even if they don't win the title for a while, they have to show that Chelsea are strong enough. So, if Ranieri wants to keep his Chelsea position, then he must polish the team into shape as soon as possible, make the most of these stars, and lead Chelsea to a satisfactory report card at the end of the season!

Of course, even if Ranieri does it in the end, he won't necessarily be able to keep that position. In this regard, Bosque, who led Real Madrid to victory over Real Sociedad last season, was sacked the day after winning the trophy, is the best example.

At this time, Ranieri always felt extremely envious of George. Because unlike him, who is only a Chelsea manager, George is not only the manager of Tottenham Hotspur, but also the owner of the club. So, in the vast majority of cases, no one in Tottenham would dare to disobey any orders given by George. This allows George to spend less effort than other managers when rebuilding the team, and can use the extra energy to be more useful.

Ranieri, on the other hand, is a natural intimidation to big-name stars, and it is difficult for him to control the entire team like George without being given enough power by Abou. The only way to get these stars to obey him is to constantly seek compromise and balance.

While Ranieri was racking his brains to keep his position, a scene was being staged at Tottenham's training base on the other side of the city.

"Didier (Drogba), this is a tailor-made training plan for you by the coaching staff overnight, you have to complete it with quality and quantity. In the conference room, George put a document with two bricks in front of Drogba with a wicked smile, "If you want to become a top center forward, you can't only be physically strong enough." Technique, especially the ability to shoot and play the ball after attracting the pack, is also extremely important for a power centre-forward. You know, even Husky, who has been criticized by the media for his inefficient goalscoring efforts, has a first-class level in several aspects besides scoring goals. ”

"Boss, I'll admit that you have a point, and that my technique is a little crude, but it's too ...... for you to have such a detailed plan for this Looking at the thick stack of training plans in front of him, Drogba ignored the expressions of his teammates around him, and said to George with a bitter face, "Especially this one, I have to practice shooting and passing for at least an extra hour after training every day...... Boss, this is going to be dead!

"Are you embarrassed to say?!" Seeing that Drogba had some doubts about this, George couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his eyes widened, and his fierce expression frightened Drogba so much that he moved his seat back several centimeters, "Then tell me, who was in the last game who missed a single goal when he was so close to the goal? Who was it, three consecutive shots from ten meters in front of the opponent's goal in thirty seconds without a single goal?"

"Ha, haha...... Boss, those are all accidents, just accidents. Hearing George say this, Drogba laughed twice dryly and hurriedly said, "I promise you, the same thing will never happen again next time." ”

To be honest, the person who feels the most aggrieved about this should actually be Chelsea goalkeeper Koudicini. Because Drogba's shooting technique and accuracy are not very good, but the Ivorian is very impressive. Therefore, when Drogba hit Cudicini with three shots in a row, the Italian, who felt extremely sour, did not even have the strength to get up from the turf for a while.

"Oh, what else are you going to do with Didier?" George's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Drogba with a strange expression, and his tone was full of teasing, "Are you going to make a difficult anti-aircraft gun in front of the goal, or do you want to emulate that crazy striker from Argentina and also score a hat-trick of missing a penalty?"

"Don't say it, boss, I'll just agree to your request. Hearing George's words full of bad taste, Drogba, who knew something about his head coach's character, was full of embarrassment and helplessness, and hurriedly expressed his attitude, "Please rest assured, I will complete this training plan seriously, and I will never do anything that violates the law or does not train seriously." ”

"It's good that you can recognize that. In response to Drogba's statement, George nodded with satisfaction, "Then, from tomorrow, you will go to special training according to this plan." ”

"No problem, boss!" Although he complained, Drogba also knew in his heart that George had done all this for his good. Therefore, for George's arrangement, the Ivorians are still willing to accept it.

In this way, Drogba finally took over the tailor-made training program for him from George and the Tottenham coaching staff. Prepare for the next period of time, and focus on your ability to play and shoot your skills!

"By the way, Luca [Tony], you have to stay and train with Didier. At the end of the meeting, George stopped Tony, who was about to leave, and said, "Although your shooting skills can throw Didier out of the way for several streets, and your covering and playmaking skills have improved a lot during your time at Brescia, I think you need to improve on these areas." Why don't you go and join Didier in this special training. ”

"Hahaha......" Seeing that Tony had not escaped the disaster, the other Tottenham players who were about to leave the conference room all laughed. And Drogba, who had a bitter face, also smiled and patted Tony's shoulder at this time, as if celebrating that he had one more difficult brother.

Laughing aside, in fact, for the special treatment that Drogba and Toni received, others are quite envious in their hearts. Because it means that in the mind of the head coach, these two obviously have more weight, so they will have a special training plan for them. Otherwise, why would people go to such great lengths to come up with such a detailed training plan?

Especially the highly motivated Villa and Mascherano, the envy in their eyes is as conspicuous as a searchlight in the night!

"It seems that the object of the next special training is set for these two boys for the time being. Noticing the eyes of Villa and Mascherano, George made a secret decision in his heart. However, George is not going to make that decision known right now. He also had to see if Villa and Mascherano were on a whim, or if they really had an idea in mind.

Cristiano Ronaldo was the only person present who did not feel envy and hatred for this. After all, he had already eaten a small stove under George, so naturally he would not have much envy of what happened to Drogba and Tony.

The victory that not only lifted Tottenham out of the previous cycle of consecutive draws, but also reinvigorated the players' confidence that had begun to fall short due to the three-game draw relationship, and made George, who led them to this miraculous comeback, more and more convinced. To be able to lead a team that has undergone a major overhaul in the summer, picking up points against the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea, and all on the road, is a testament to George's ability as a manager.

So, leading these players who were convinced from the bottom of their hearts, George and his Tottenham Hotspur played a jaw-dropping winning streak in the following days!
