After discussions with Tuchel, George finally decided to put Tuchel in charge of Tottenham's youth team alongside the likes of Charlie Sr. and Allegri to further improve Tottenham's tactical system. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The reason why George did not leave Tuchel to develop Tottenham's attacking tactics on his own, but let him work with Charlie and others to complete a whole tactical system, is because attack and defence are never two things that can be separated separately. Like Tuchel's high pressing tactic proposed to solve Tottenham's current problem of attacking difficulties in positional battles, it can also be seen as a defensive tactic from another perspective. Therefore, it is the most suitable choice for Tuchel and Charlie to communicate more and tailor a tactical system for Tottenham according to the actual situation.

After all, as the manager of Tottenham Hotspur, George has to have plenty of tactical knowledge, but his main job is to manage the whole team, grasp the general direction of the team, and lead the team to play every game. As for the details, such as how to implement the idea of how to implement the high pressing strategy, how to get the players to adapt to the new tactical system as soon as possible, that is something that George's coach should focus on and solve, and he only needs to care about the final result.

If George had to do everything himself, then what was the point of him hiring Allegri and others into Tottenham's coaching staff? Is it just that he wants these future coaches to be his puppets and act according to George's instructions to meet the psychological needs of his time-traveler?

So, when making similar changes to the team, the manager only needs to come up with the general direction of improvement and set a clear goal, and do a good job of gatekeeping, and leave the rest to his subordinates. It was a valuable asset he received from Robson Sr. and Alex Ferguson when he studied under them.

It has to be said that George's luck was quite good. Just as he sent the likes of Thomas Tuchel and Allegri to deal with the team's struggles in positional battles, the week-long international break came as scheduled. As a result, the club competition had to be put to a halt. In this way, George and they have an extra week to make further adjustments and run-ins to the team.

You know, unlike those giants who even have international players on the bench, Tottenham Hotspur, who were only 10th in the Premier League last season, did not have many players who received a call-up to the national team, and only a few players such as Cech and Drogba were called up to their respective national teams. So, while other big clubs are struggling with the FIFA virus, Tottenham can take the opportunity to take a break, learn from the previous four games and have plenty of time to prepare for the next games.

So, when the time came on September 13, the whole Tottenham team arrived at Stamford Bridge in London's Kensington-Chelsea district on time. Tonight, they will be here to take on another Chelsea Blues who have changed owners this summer, nicknamed "Cherski" by the British media!

With the change of owner from Ken Bates to Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, Chelsea have taken the summer transfer market by storm. With the strong support of Abou, the ruble-wielding Chelsea have poached a number of stars in the transfer market. Real Madrid's main defender Claude Makelele, Argentina's central striker Hernan Crespo, Romanian striker Adrian Mutu, England's talented striker, known as "Gascoigne's successor" Joe Cole, etc., are all Chelsea's achievements this summer.

There is a good saying: if you have food in your hands, you don't panic in your heart. Ranieri, who has lived a hard life for many years, now finally has such a good deck of cards in his hand, and even sitting on the bench at any time is a group of internationals or quasi-internationals. Such a reality naturally makes the tinkering pot ingenuity extremely satisfied, and he feels that he has a good chance of leading the Blues to the club's first Premier League trophy in nearly half a century!

Cudicini, Glenn Johnson, John Terry, Desailly, Bridge, Claude Makelele, Geremi, Frank Lampard, Joe Cole, Mutu and Crespo, that's Chelsea's starting eleven for the game!

It can be seen from this starting line-up that although Chelsea's strength has been greatly strengthened this summer, Ranieri has not changed much compared to last season, and he is still on the path of defending and counter-attacking.

It is precisely because Claudio Ranieri's Chelsea are known for their defensive solidity in the Premier League that George is a good time to put his players to the test of what they have been training for over the past two weeks. As long as the players show the results of these two weeks of training against Chelsea, and no longer have been helpless once they are dragged into positional battles as they have been in previous games, then George will be satisfied.

As for whether he can beat Chelsea and end the team's streak of draws, George doesn't dare to pack his ticket. After all, Chelsea were much smaller than Tottenham in the summer, but they were much stronger overall, and the players have yet to prove that Tuchel's new tactics are effective in tackling the lack of attacking strength in positional warfare, and the Blues are still playing at home, so Tottenham's chances of winning this game are actually not very large.

Despite this, George decided to experiment with new tactics in this game, rather than opting to experiment with an underdog after playing against Chelsea. Because if you don't take advantage of the run-in period to get the players to adapt to the new tactics, but wait until the team has been in shape before making changes, then Tottenham will inevitably fall into a period of chaos again, which is not what George wants to see. So, in order to reduce the possible troubles in the future, George finally made this decision.

So, according to the training report submitted by Charlie and others, George made certain adjustments to Tottenham's starting lineup for this game when arranging the starting list.

Goalkeeper Petr Cech, the back four from left to right are Heinze, Nemanja Vidic, Ledley King and Stephen Carr, and in midfield is a four-man duo of Bierovka, Carrick, Kompany and Speed, and in attack, Didier Drogba replaces Luka Toney as Robbie Keane's new striker.

"Good evening, my name is Andy Grey and I'm going to be in charge of the highlight of the fifth round of the Premier League. 'With both Tottenham and Chelsea making a splash in the summer transfer market, and the similar backgrounds of both clubs (both announced a change of ownership this summer, and both have a boss who is willing to spend a lot of money for the team), this head-to-head clash between the two teams has attracted a lot of attention from fans, so Sky TV has placed their ace commentator Andy Gray as the commentator for the game. The two teams have a very similar starting line-up and it looks as if both managers are intent on a defensive counter-attacking approach to this game, so there is a good chance that this game will turn into a defensive battle...... However, this is not good news for us as viewers. ”

'Andy, although the two teams have a very similar formation and a similar style of play, I think Chelsea have a better chance of winning. At this time, England's legendary goalscorer Gary Lineker, who appeared as a special guest in the studio, said his opinion: "Not only are Chelsea a cut above Tottenham Hotspur in terms of overall strength, but the Blues now have at least one first-class star on all three fronts. In contrast to Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur's summer signings are dominated by young players with potential and quality players who are not well-known. From this point of view, Tottenham Hotspur does not have a very big chance of winning. ”

"Gary (Lineker), I remember spending the last three years of your playing days at Tottenham, how could you be so disdainful of your old club?" Andy Gray was a little puzzled by Lineker's disdain for Tottenham's game tonight, "Moreover, football is not a simple addition and subtraction, even the stronger side is not without gutters. Therefore, if the book strength of the two teams is used as the basis for judging the outcome of the game, I think it is still very unconvincing. ”

'Yes, emotionally, of course I hope Tottenham can win. But my sanity tells me that the chances of Tottenham taking away a win from Stamford Bridge are too low. "Not to mention the gap between the two teams in terms of book strength, Tottenham Hotspur has not won at Stamford Bridge since 1990 and has been winless against the Blues for 11 consecutive seasons, which is enough to bring a lot of psychological shadow to Tottenham." And, even though Tottenham played five games against Chelsea in the 01/02 season and struggled to end an eleven-year winless run against Chelsea in the Carabao Cup replay, they still haven't won at Stamford Bridge after a full thirteen seasons so far. ”

You know, there's always something very mysterious on the football field. Just like Tottenham, when their back-to-back away winless run against Chelsea has become a habit, when they meet Chelsea on the pitch again, the Spurs side will lose first in terms of momentum and psychology, and the games that they would have had a chance to win will be slimmed.

'Listening to Gary, I think it's a good chance that Chelsea will win tonight. Andy Gray clearly doesn't remember this allusion to the history of the two clubs as clearly as Lineker. Therefore, after listening to Lineker's account, Andy Gray can't help but feel that it is indeed unrealistic for Tottenham to want to take away a win at Stamford Bridge: "Coach Nelson is really unlucky, after a wave of three consecutive draws, he actually ran into Chelsea, which Tottenham have not won away from home for 13 years. It seems that Tottenham's record of consecutive away winless games against Chelsea could be another one more after tonight. ”

Just as Andy Gray and Lineker were talking about Chelsea's various advantages in this matchup, the players from both sides had walked out of the tunnel under the leadership of referee Howard Webb and stepped onto the lawn of Stamford Bridge!

The race is about to begin!
