Chapter 852: Psychological Warfare

"I don't think Manchester City will be able to defend their title this season. ranenacom"

The day before the sixth round of the Premier League, in the press conference hall of Chelsea's Cobham training base in south London, Scolari spoke confidently in an interview with media reporters after introducing his starting 18-man squad.

The flash flashed at the scene, and all the media reporters were capturing Scolari's expression as he said this.

He is very confident!

Chelsea's excellent performances this season have also given him plenty of confidence.

Winning all five rounds and scoring 21 goals, this report card is enough to make Scolari stand out from the crowd, and it also gives him the courage to challenge Alpine and Manchester City, especially Falcao's crazy scoring momentum, which gives him confidence.

"I can understand everyone's awe of Gao Han, in fact, he is really good and is already a legend in the history of world football, but I want to say that there has never been a person and a team that cannot lose. ”

"In fact, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich have all lost, and Gao Han will definitely lose, maybe tomorrow, and it will be in the city stadium. ”

As for Scolari's confidence, the media reporters understood it more as a pre-match cheer.

After all, this key battle is imminent, as the head coach of Chelsea, Scolari will definitely not be able to tell the players that we are not as good as others, we can't beat Manchester City and the like, so isn't it dismantling our own platform?

But soon a reporter raised his hand to ask questions.

'Mr Scolari, Chelsea lost three times to Manchester City last season and the Community Shield before this season, losing three trophies and if I'm not mistaken, before every game you were confident that Chelsea would win. ”

As soon as the reporter's voice fell, there was a burst of laughter at the scene.

Scolari wasn't surprised, either, because he knew that the reporters were simply trying to provoke him.

'You're right, we did lose four games in the last year, but that's because we weren't prepared, it was my first season in charge of Chelsea and a lot of things were very new to me, but after a year I feel like I'm ready. ”

'In addition to my problems, the team was also not prepared enough, we brought in Falcao and Ramirez after the winter break, and as a result, the two players showed quite good quality in the second half and have been the best performers in the team and in the Premier League this season. ”

"So I think we're ready. ”

As he spoke, Scolari picked up the squad he had just read and put on the table, and said with a smile: "Look, we have a strong squad, right? ”

It is clear that the opening five consecutive wins have given Chelsea a strong sense of self-confidence, both in Scolari and in the players.

But it didn't take long for another reporter to ask questions.

'Mr Scolari, it's five wins in a row, but why do you think Chelsea have the last laugh and Manchester City can't defend their title?'

Scolari was clearly prepared for this, and said with a smile: "The reason is simple, they have just had a perfect season, their players have been very good, it was a very special season, I can understand it, but after that peak, the mentality of the players will inevitably be a little slack, and the performance will slip a little. ”

"The professional league is very cruel, there is not much difference between us and Manchester City, and the paralysis of the opponent will be our chance to win and even win the title. ”

…………

Scolari wants to boost the morale of the team, and Gao Han is understandable.

However, the Brazilian coach seems to have said a little too much.

Lured by media reporters, he commented on the current landscape of the Premier League, especially the teams that are rushing for the title.

He believes that Liverpool have already withdrawn from the race for the league title early, because the Reds have had a really sad start to the season, with three strong teams in the first five rounds, Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United, resulting in one draw and two defeats.

The remaining two league games are one win and one draw, so the total result of the five rounds is one win, two draws and two defeats.

It is indeed difficult to reassure Liverpool with such a report card, and the possibility of winning the title is also very slim.

Arsenal and Manchester United are both unbeaten with three wins and two draws, but Scolari believes that neither team is capable of challenging Manchester City and Chelsea, so he has concluded that the title will only be between Manchester City and Chelsea.

Therefore, in this game, Chelsea will win Manchester City and counterattack to reach the top.

Gao Han thought a little in his heart, Scolari's words were a bit watery, and when he was a guest at the City Stadium, the ideal result in his heart should be a draw, not a win.

This is a bit of a sky-high price, and the feeling of paying back the money on the ground.

The media reporter took what Scolari said in London, I don't know if he added fuel and vinegar, and moved it directly to Gao Han in Manchester, and then asked Gao Han about his response, which was obviously sowing discord.

But this time, Gao Han is really "in the middle of the plan".

After listening to the reporter's retelling, Gao Han waved his hand impatiently and sneered.

"I don't understand who gave Scolari so much courage, Liang Jingru?"

Liang Jingru: Who is it?

The reporters at the scene all looked at each other, and they didn't know who Gao Han was talking about.

But Gao Han didn't explain, but continued to speak.

'Chelsea have had a really good start, winning five in a row and scoring 21 goals, which is really good, but it's not a surprise at all, do you know why?'

All the reporters immediately didn't worry about who Liang Jingru was, but listened attentively to Gao Han's words.

It was clear that they all smelled gunpowder.

'Because they didn't test them in the first five rounds of the game, from the moment I saw the Premier League fixtures this season, I was convinced that Chelsea would start the game with five wins in a row and, to be honest, any team aiming for the title would be five wins in a row. ”

'But they're going to have a challenge ahead of them soon, this one is us, the next one is Arsenal and then Liverpool, so the real test is yet to come for Chelsea and let's not forget that they just lost the Carabao Cup three days ago. ”

Saying goodbye to the Carabao Cup in the first round of the new season was also a blow to Chelsea.

Gao Han was somewhat suspicious of falling into the well this time.

After talking about the situation of the league, Gao Han shifted the topic to the tactical level of the game.

'Yes, there's no doubt that they've been scoring very well this season, Falcao is a player I know very well and he has the potential to be one of the top scorers in Europe, but the biggest test for them in this game, at the City Stadium, will not be attack, but defence. ”

'I have no doubt that Scolari's side will play counter-attacking tactics and I doubt that they will be able to defend or not, and neither I nor my team would mind testing Chelsea's defence at the City Stadium. ”

Gao Han's words immediately made all the media reporters at the scene excited.

It's a-for-tat war of words.

Scolari ignited the fire of the game out of the needs of the team's game, while Gao Han did not give an inch, ridiculed each other, and the counterattack was also very sharp, directly hitting the key point of Chelsea.

Chelsea have not faced any quality team in the first five rounds of the season, so it is no surprise that the Blues have been able to crush their opponents almost all the way to the top, and the winning streak has been unusual.

But at the beginning of this round, Chelsea will face strong opponents, and it is difficult to say whether they can maintain this momentum.

And Gao Han's last defensive counterattack is undoubtedly revealing Chelsea's scars last season.

It's a psychological war.

…………

…………

The on-site media reporters were all excited, holding the fierce materials that had just arrived, planning how to make tomorrow's layout, what kind of title to choose to attract the attention of readers, and so on.

Gao Han also left the press conference hall with a smile, and he also achieved the effect he wanted.

He just wanted to push Scolari to see if he would get hit.

When I walked back to the training building, I passed by the players' lounge and saw one of Mendes' agents walking from the parking lot with a large bag of things, and immediately trotted over to say hello when he saw Gao Han.

Over the years, Mendes' business has become bigger and bigger, and things big and small can no longer be done as in the past, so there are many full-time agents in the company, and almost every big-name star has one next to him, providing a variety of services, such as running errands and the like.

"What's going on?" asked Gao Han with a smile.

Anyway, Mendez's brokerage company also has half of his shares.

"Cristiano, he said he wanted to give everyone in the team a gift, so ......"

Gao Han smiled and nodded, "Then let's go." ”

"Okay, then I'll go, Mr. Gao Han. ”

Seeing the agent leave, Gao Han pondered for a while, and he understood Cristiano Ronaldo's intentions.

"This kid is under pressure!" Gao Han laughed.

Gareth Bell has performed well in the last few games, with fast speed, strong impact, and physical fitness, so many people feel that he is very similar to Cristiano Ronaldo, and the two have a positional conflict on the field.

But this is purely a layman's opinion.

These two players are never the same type of player.

Gareth Bell is a cut below Cristiano Ronaldo, especially on the ball, so the Welshman has a speed defender like Abate who is less effective when his pace doesn't threaten.

But Cristiano Ronaldo obviously not, whether he takes the ball or plays the ball, he is quite a threat, belongs to the kind of player who can create chances without chances, and has super individual ability.

Of course, Gao Han is now gradually figuring out how to use Garethbell, but it is different from what others think.

However, seeing that Cristiano Ronaldo had competitive pressure and even wanted to buy gifts for his teammates, Gao Han couldn't help but be a little impressed, this kid is really getting more and more mature now.

It's kind of interesting.

Gao Han did not linger outside the door of the players' lounge, but went directly to the coach's office on the second floor.

It didn't take long for Cristiano Ronaldo to come up with a gift.

It turned out that not only his teammates, but also the coaching staff and core employees, each of them.

A freshly baked Apple iPhone 4 phone, and an iPad tablet that was just launched earlier this year.

These two gifts are not light.

As for the high cold, Cristiano Ronaldo also privately gave a laptop with Apple's highest configuration.

"Boss, you know my goal, you must help me. Cristiano Ronaldo said wistfully.

FIFA Ballon d'Or!

He wants to beat Messi and win this honor!
