Inter Milan's arrival in London was undoubtedly the most popular and the most popular among journalists and fans, and the one who attracted the most attention from reporters and fans was undoubtedly former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho.

At the airport, Mourinho was surrounded by Chelsea fans. Many young men handed him jerseys and scarves and asked him to sign them.

A lot of fans said: Come back. Someone said directly: go back to Chelsea. Others said: If you don't go back to Chelsea, at least go back to the Premier League.

Gao Xiaodong and other players were also welcomed by Inter Milan fans who came to pick them up, but they still couldn't compare with Mourinho, who was also supported by Chelsea fans and Inter Milan fans.

Speaking to reporters at the airport, Mourinho said affectionately: "I've been away here for a long time, in fact I've always wanted to come back, but I don't want to disturb Chelsea, this team now has a manager every three months. I don't like that, and I don't want to be involved. I hid far away, because it's always a little hard to come back, I'm doing well in London, I'm reluctant to leave, when I say goodbye, my heart hurts, and after that, it's been hard to face Chelsea again, and now I have to come back whether I dare to face it or not. โ€

'I don't hide my feelings for Chelsea, this is my home, but I'm a professional football coach and I have to be responsible for Inter Milan and President Moratti and we're going to give it our all to beat Chelsea. โ€

However, just when Mourinho was reminiscing warmly, an Italian reporter asked Mourinho why Balotelli did not come to London?

Jose Mourinho turned his face at the time, "Why do you want to focus on a player who won't play in this Champions League game, there are a lot of important players here who will decide the fate of Inter Milan this season, does Balotelli matter?"

After saying that, Mourinho got on the bus angrily and beckoned the players back to the hotel together.

After a bite to eat at the hotel and a two-hour rest, the Inter players headed to Stamford Bridge to acclimatise to the pitch.

There were also plenty of Chelsea fans waiting for Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge, and when Jose Mourinho walked onto the pitch, the former Blues boss was greeted with loud applause and cheers.

The fans are still the same fans, the stadium is still the same stadium, and the unbeaten home record still exists, but unfortunately he has become the manager of Inter Milan, and Mourinho's eyes can't help but moisten when he sees this.

Inter's acclimatisation was uninterrupted by the Chelsea fans, who gave them applause when they put on a great performance.

Of course, it's not just because of Mourinho's bond, it's more because Chelsea fans believe their side can knock out Inter.

Inter Milan's Champions League record is very poor, they have not reached the quarter-finals for four years, even with Mourinho, last season did not improve, and Chelsea are unbeaten in 21 Champions League games at home, and only need 1-0 in the second leg to eliminate Inter Milan, with Chelsea's attacking power, Chelsea fans think this can be easily done.

Returning from Stamford Bridge, it was getting late, and after dinner, Mourinho called Gao Xiaodong to his room.

"Xiaodong, what do you think of tomorrow's game?"

Mourinho handed Gao Xiaodong a glass of water and motioned for Gao Xiaodong to sit down and talk.

Gao Xiaodong said: "I think it's five or five, Chelsea is stronger, but the goalkeeper is short, and we are ahead of the score, and there is still a chance to keep the equal." โ€

Mourinho shook his head and said: "No, we can't play five-five, maybe other players can play five-five, but the two of us have to win, because this game is very important for the two of us, if I lose the game, the season is over, I will definitely be fired, you are the one I want to come, the highest price in history, the highest salary in the team, if you can't even play in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, after I am fired, your life will not be easy, so for both of us, this game is an absolute battle of life and death, we have to win." โ€

Gao Xiaodong's face changed slightly, he understood that what Mourinho said was not an exaggeration at all, Mourinho has the highest annual salary among coaches, if he only reaches the top 16 of the Champions League in two seasons, Moratti can't accept it no matter how good his temper is, it is inevitable to let Mourinho get out, he may not necessarily go, but the reputation of parallel goods can't run, and he will never trust himself so much if he changes to a new coach, this game is indeed more important to himself and Mourinho.

'I have the confidence and I will definitely give it my all, but we are not as good as the opponents and they haven't lost at home in the Champions League for four years. "Gao Xiaodong Road.

Mourinho smiled coldly and said domineeringly: "Chelsea's unbeaten home streak was started by me, and now I should also end it." There are no unbeaten Blues at Stamford Bridge, only the unbeaten Jose Mourinho. โ€

Gao Xiaodong silently listened to Mourinho pretending to be forced, without saying a word, his heart is not good, if he wants to defeat the strong with the weak, he has to have a way.

Although Mourinho is called a madman, he is by no means a mouthpiece, he is a doer, and continued: "Although Chelsea has changed coaches, the style of play is basically the same as mine, and the personnel have only changed Ivanovic and Anelka, their attack still relies on two long passes on the side and in the middle to find Drogba, we just need to watch Drogba and press Chelsea's two sides, their attack will be wasted." โ€

When Gao Xiaodong heard this, he understood, "Coach, you mean that I will continue to play on the wing." โ€

Mourinho shook his head and said: "No, there are two sides on the flanks of Samuel Eto'o and Pandev to suppress Chelsea, you play in midfield, move behind Milito, and return to the front of your penalty area when you are off the ball. โ€

Gao Xiaodong was a little stunned and said, "What about Sneijder?"

Mourinho said: "Sneijder didn't have a fever in the past two days, he played as a substitute." โ€

"Oh, no problem, I can play any position. "It doesn't matter which position Gao Xiaodong plays, but the forward midfielder is better, and this position is closer to the opponent's goal.

Mourinho said: "You have a lot of burden, you need you in attack and defense, pay attention to the reasonable distribution of physical energy. โ€

Gao Xiaodong said: "Don't worry, coach, my physical fitness is fine." โ€

Mourinho nodded, he still has a lot of trust in Gao Xiaodong's physical strength, Inter Milan's age is generally older, if there is no Gao Xiaodong and Muntari in the midfield, it is difficult for Inter Milan's midfielder to compete with Chelsea.

After talking about the game, Mourinho said: "Xiaodong, what do you think about me not bringing Balotelli to London?"

Gao Xiaodong believes that Mourinho must know that Balotelli has a good relationship with him, and he is not shy about saying: "In fact, Mario has the ability to play in the game against Chelsea. โ€

Mourinho said solemnly: " Mario certainly has the ability, but he destroys the unity of the team, which is unbearable for any coach, and the same is true for Cรณrdoba, for a day at Inter Milan, the player has to think about Inter Milan wholeheartedly, no matter which team he is a fan of, no matter which coach he likes, he can't be emotional, say and do things that are not good for his team, just like I have more feelings for Chelsea, but in the game, I will definitely beat Chelsea by any means necessary, because I am the manager of Inter Milan, you understand?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "I understand, this is a professional attitude. โ€

Mourinho said: "Yes, this is the attitude of the profession, okay, you go back, have a good rest, and be ready for tomorrow's fierce battle." โ€

"Okay, goodbye coach. โ€

Gao Xiaodong came out of Mourinho's room and had just returned to his room when the monkey called, "Xiaodong, Balotelli rejected Mendes, and now he has signed a contract with Raiola." โ€

"Ah, hold the grass. โ€

Gao Xiaodong instantly figured out the cause and effect, it turned out that Mourinho did not take Balotelli to put pressure on Balotelli and let Balotelli sign Mendes, but he didn't expect Ba Shen to be too individual, so he directly rejected Mendes and signed to Raiola.

After talking to the monkey on the phone, Gao Xiaodong sighed and said in his heart, Mourinho, Mourinho, you have no last resort, but you don't understand the world of Ba Shen.
