Fifteen days passed quickly, as if in a blink of an eye, Taylor's tour was going on, her next stop would be Chicago, and Ai Huan was back in London, and there was no reason for him to miss this match, because it was a must-win match, because they were facing another giant club in London - Tottenham, simply put, it was a battle for the king of London.

Both sides drew home and away last season, and although Chelsea are unbeaten with 16 wins and nine draws against Tottenham in 25 home games, the Blues have drawn just three and lost three of their last six league visits to White Hart Lane. There have only been 40 Premier League meetings between the two sides, with Chelsea holding the advantage of 22 wins, 14 draws and 4 defeats, including 9 wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats on the road, while Chelsea have also won 61, drawn 36 and lost 49 of the 146 games in the history of the two sides.

But even so, Tottenham never took Chelsea seriously, and as those people say, the team's supporters are crazy, and they don't think Chelsea should be a London team at all. Arsenal and Tottenham in north London are rightfully rivals, both of which are located in north London, less than six kilometres from the Emirates Stadium, and secondly, the "King of London" has always alternated between the two teams before Abbu moved to Chelsea, while Chelsea are always soft, which is like a label hanging on Chelsea that is difficult to take off.

The fans came in early and chanted songs like "Tottenham are the kings of London, Arsenal will leave early when they see us" and "BLUE FLAG IN YOUR OWN PIYAN" OVER AND OVER AND OVER FROM THE SIDELINES, DESPISED CHELSEA BUT NOT SO MUCH HATRED, AS IF THEY WERE JUST TRYING TO LAUGH AT CHELSEA.

More than 5,000 Chelsea fans also flocked here early, and at this moment they are also fighting back in their own way, in fact, it is just "that touch of blue never stops", and these people's counterattacks seem humble and ridiculous in the chanting of tens of thousands of fans on the other side.

But the highlights of this game are not only this, there is still a lot of things to talk about on both sides, the current Tottenham Hotspur manager Boas is once Mourinho's assistant, and he is also one of his students, especially when Mourinho left Chelsea, he chose to stay, and finally became the head coach of Chelsea, which should be a betrayal in the eyes of the outside world, but few people know what these two people think in their hearts.

But the real fact is that Villas-Boas was the manager of Chelsea last season, but was sacked halfway through the season due to poor results, which also became a thorn in Boas's heart, and he also said before the game that he must give Chelsea a little color, and Mourinho did not say much about this.

There were changes for both sides in the game, starting with Gary Cahill coming on in place of John Terry, who was suspended for a yellow card, while Ramires rotated Frank Lampard to start. However, the lack of personnel on Tottenham's side is even more terrible, the winger Bale, who has been in the limelight recently, has been absent because he has to accompany his girlfriend to give birth, and Dembele has been absent due to injury, which has also become an important reason why Tottenham was not favored before the game.

Due to the time of the game, CCTV did not choose this game today, but the online platform was still authorized, and they broadcast the game. The lineup of today's broadcast is also quite interesting, and it turned out to be Dong Lu and Fan Haidong who appeared in the studio.

"Haidong, we just introduced to you the previous records of the two sides and some interesting history, now let's move the topic to this game, let's still introduce the lineups of both sides according to the old rules. First of all, the visiting team Chelsea, today Chelsea still put in a 4-2-3-1 position, and the goalkeeper is still Chelsea's main goalkeeper Petr Cech. At the back, Branislav Ivanovic, Cahill, Luiz and Ashley Cole. Mikel and Ramires are in the midfield midfield, the front three are Mata, Hazard and Ephant, and the forward line is still Torres. ”

He paused for a moment and continued: "Tottenham Hotspur also put in the same formation, goalkeeper Friedel, Walker, Gallas, Cocker and Vergenton at the back, Hudstone and Sandro in midfield, Lennon, Sigurdson and Dempsey in front, and Defoe in front. ”

Van Haidong sighed and then said slowly: "To be honest, Chelsea's lineup today did not surprise us, now Chelsea's attacking line is at its hottest, and Ai Huan has gradually begun to affect the entire Chelsea's front-court tactical system, so what really makes Mourinho feel a headache should be mainly concentrated in the backfield, but there are not many options available to him in the backfield, which is the most disappointing thing." ”

"Disappointed?" Dong Lu was stunned for a moment, "do you mean that Chelsea should actually invest more in the backfield, rather than blindly spending money on the frontcourt?"

Van Haidong laughed: "Now it seems that this is the case, don't forget that before this season, Chelsea bought almost all the players in the midfield, and now it seems that they have bought a group of attacking lines that are really useful, but there are only a few people, and the defense that they should invest in the most is not buying good players, which should be a mistake." ”

"In fact, in my opinion, there is nothing Mourinho can do, he has hinted in an interview that almost none of the player sales this season have passed through him except for Ai Huan, so the current team is not his team. ”

"Maybe. Fan Haidong suddenly smiled a little bitterly, "One Ai Phantom is enough." The winning record so far is enough to overshadow everyone, the best team, the best coach and the best player for two consecutive months in August and September is almost unthinkable, and I am very confident that it will be difficult for anyone to shake their lead in the next games, and it turns out that 120 million is worth it. But I don't understand why we don't need to spend all this money to have a player like this, but some people just don't want to use it?"

Dong Lu also smiled bitterly, "You should know this matter better than me, many times we actually can't understand Chinese football at all, but after all, you were once one of them, shouldn't you know better than us what is in it?"

Fan Haidong couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly narrowed his eyes.
