Wright-Phillips transferred from Manchester City to Chelsea last year, and his super high value of 25 million pounds also created the highest in the history of Manchester City clubs, but after Phillips joined Chelsea, his performance was not satisfactory, it was difficult to occupy the main position, and even his playing time was limited.

Jose Mourinho still wants to give Phillips a chance and hope that he can adapt to Chelsea quickly and return to the form he was in at Manchester City, when Chelsea can have a good winger.

Last season, Phillips made 21 appearances for Chelsea at all levels of the league, thirteen of them as a substitute, failing to score a single goal.

This kind of data also says a lot about Phillips' positioning as a fringe sub.

Mourinho sent Phillips, in fact, there is no way, Damion Duff in the same position left the team, Joe Cole was injured during the preparation, and he has been recovering from injuries in recent stages, there is only one Wright Phillips left, the Portuguese do not expect Phillips to save the team, as long as he performs better than Shepchenko, it is already satisfying.

This substitution is a normal choice.

So far in the game, Chelsea's worst performance in the front court is Shepchenko, he and his teammates have little cooperation, often the ball is passed and cannot be passed back, he is rarely involved in defense, and more importantly, as a striker, he has not had a decent shot on goal for 70 minutes, as if he has become a transparent person in the game, if he is not about to be replaced, the media will forget that there is such a top star on the field of Chelsea.

Sky Sports commentator Paul Scott said, "Shepchenko was a little out of shape, he didn't play much in this game, and he seemed to be completely limited by Livermore. ”

'Jose Mourinho made the right adjustment, maybe Phillips came on and could make things a little bit better for Chelsea......

The substitution left Abramovich on the rostrum dissatisfied.

Abramovich had a smile on his face and applauded when Millwall scored in the first half, saying to Prince Mossad, "It was a great goal!" "What exactly is in the heart, no one else knows.

When he saw Shepchenko being substituted, Abramovich's smile froze.

Shepchenko was replaced?

What does that damn Portuguese think!?

Of the eleven Chelsea players on the pitch, Abramovich cared most about Shepchenko, and he had countless reasons to want Shepchenko to play the full game.

One Shepchenko was introduced by him.

It is known all over Europe and the world that Abramovich wants Shepchenko to join Chelsea, he has been chasing Shepchenko for three seasons, and now his goal has finally been achieved, he hopes that Shepchenko can play the second glory of his career at Chelsea.

Second, Shepchenko is his compatriot and his fellow countryman, Abramovich's mother is Ukrainian, and he feels very close to Shepchenko.

In addition, Abramovich does like Shepchenko, otherwise he would not have been chasing it for three years in a row.

Now that Shepchenko is officially a Chelsea player, Abramovich wants to see Shepchenko put in a good performance to help Chelsea recover their disadvantage and beat Millwall to win their first title of the new season.

When the time comes, the media will say he has a vision, and Chelsea fans will thank him for bringing in a star who can win games.

But how can Mourinho replace Shepchenko?

If Shepchenko is gone, what else will the game look like? Is this what it's called 'sacrificing players for the sake of winning'? Or does Mourinho think that Shepchenko can win when he goes down?

"I hope so."

Roman Abramovich squinted slightly, staring at Jose Mourinho in the Chelsea dugout, his heart was no longer hopeful that Mourinho could leave at any time.

Abramovich has been unhappy with Mourinho for a long time.

Jose Mourinho's quality is good, but since arriving at Chelsea, he has only won one league title.

Besides, there is none.

The English domestic cup is not counted, Abramovich does not look at that kind of championship at all, he wants to make Chelsea a top team, hoping that Chelsea can reach the top of the European crown.

Jose Mourinho's first season in charge saw Chelsea reach the last four of the Champions League and the Premier League.

At the time, Roman Abramovich thought it was good, but last season was different, Chelsea only won the League Cup, and the FA Cup and league title were won by Millwall.

If it is acceptable to lose the league title, it is really unacceptable to be eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League.

Last season, he hit the semi-finals, and this season he was eliminated in the round of 16?

Definitely not!

Roman Abramovich decided to look at Mourinho for another season, and he knew that the Champions League title would not be easy to obtain, so he increased his investment in Shepchenko while also giving Mourinho enough transfer freedom so that he could buy the player he wanted.

Barak signed.

Kalou is here.

There are a few players who don't know their names, and everything that should be added has been added, and now it's just such a result? In the head-to-head confrontation with Millwall, Chelsea was at a disadvantage, and Shepchenko was also substituted!

Abramovich's inner discontent was extreme.

Abramovich also showed displeasure, and he vented and said, "What does this guy think? Replace Andri! ”

Prince Mossad turned his head and smiled, "Maybe it's because Shepchenko has been underperforming before. ”

Prince Mossad said 'fair words', but Abramovich didn't care, he didn't think the Arabs knew football better than he did, and what he saw was that Shepchenko was heavily defended and didn't have enough support from his teammates.

Football is a sport of eleven people, how can Shepchenko alone fight so many players on the other side?

What Mourinho should have done was not to replace Shepchenko, but to have other players play in conjunction with Shepchenko, so that Chelsea could equalise.

————

Shepchenko's fate caused a lot of Poland.

Not only is Abramovich dissatisfied, but the media is also constantly talking about it, and Chelsea are unhappy with Shepchenko's performance, Shepchenko's reputation can make Chelsea fans look forward to it, but it will take a long time to conquer the hearts of fans.

Zhang Yang didn't care at all.

Phillips?

If Arjen Robben and Joe Cole are to play, Millwall will need to pay attention to it, Phillips has not been good all the time, and he will not be much more dangerous than Shepchenko.

But probably replacing Shepchenko will annoy Mourinho, right?

Zhang Yang gloated.

Millwall still played the original tactics, and Livermore's defensive players, from Shepchenko to Phillips, also made it a lot easier for him.

Phillips' ability is a little worse than Shepchenko's, and he has a better understanding with his teammates, but his overall strength is not much stronger.

Jose Mourinho is counting on Phillips to come on and it will be difficult to help Chelsea salvage the situation.

For the rest of the game, Millwall remained firmly in control, with more possession, more passes and more shots on goal, while Chelsea had to strike back from the spot.

The game was still the way it was at the end of the game, and it was a disappointment for many Chelsea fans.

In the 81st minute, Morris and Simpson combined in front of the penalty area, and the football was passed to the left side of the box.

Makelele couldn't keep up, Bridge was still on the wing, and Pire rushed into the box to receive the pass in the open space.

Pire kicks a near corner.

Petrep is in the wrong direction and the ball goes straight into the goal!

“Goooooooooooooal！ Pire! Pire! Pire scored the second goal for Millwall! Piret is thirty-three years old, but he's still doing really well! ”

"It was a goal that also reminded us of the game, it was incredible! From the second half, Millwall kept Chelsea pressing, as if there was a gap in the strength of Chelsea and Millwall! Chelsea's luxury squad seems to have failed to perform as well as it should! ”

'Millwall won twice against Chelsea last season and in the first meeting this season, Chelsea are two goals behind...... This situation is unimaginable! ”

Not only the commentator Paul Scott was in disbelief, but the reporters in the media box, the fans in the stands and the big names in the rostrum all felt that the game was a little too unexpected, they never thought Chelsea would be suppressed, and the game seemed to be in no suspense from the 10th minute onwards.

Chelsea!

Chelsea, which has a luxury lineup, bought a number of stars such as Shepchenko and Kalou in the summer, but when facing Millwall, they were suppressed by the other party and had no power to fight back?

It's so peculiar!

What is the magic of Zhang Yang that makes this Millwall, which played very passive last season, transform into a summer that can play tough attacking football and beat Chelsea strongly?

Could it be that this is what the 'dual-core' tactic brings?!

Many media decided to go back and analyze Millwall's so-called 'dual-core' style of play, and make a rigorous tactical analysis report, Millwall performed so well, there must be many fans interested in their tactics.

That's the selling point!

In addition, Millwall can rely on a set of playing styles to suppress Chelsea strongly, and if other teams use the same tactics, they will definitely be able to play very well, right?

The idea excites them.

At the same time, the media have also secretly revised up their assessment of Millwall, who previously believed that the Premier League was competitive, with Chelsea and Manchester United the best hopes, and Millwall being the second-rate team.

Now among the Premier League's favourites to win the title, Millwall should at least be on par with Chelsea!
