Chapter 450: The Burning Scene
Tottenham are currently fifth in the league and will need to fight for a top-four spot in the competition, having been knocked out of the Champions League over two legs by Juventus, but Spurs have quickly refined, winning back-to-back league and FA Cup ties.
In his pre-match press conference, Pochettino said: "The expected return of the injured Kane to Chelsea is undoubtedly good news for Tottenham.
We're close the gap to fourth place in the league but it's still a big difference and for us it's just a matter of focusing, winning the next game and improving with each game.
We've improved on the points now, it's still a challenge for us to stay consistent, we closed the gap with the three points, and there's still a lot of work to be done and there's still some way to go to Champions League qualification.
With seven league games remaining, I don't think there's anything else stopping Chelsea from defending their league title, but we'll do our best in the game! ”
Chord Kodic and Mauricio Pochettino meet at Stamford Bridge tonight, with top-placed Chelsea taking on fifth-placed Tottenham.
In his pre-match press conference, Kodic said he particularly enjoyed discussing football with Pochettino: "Pochettino is great, friendly, I think he's one of the best coaches, yes, I'm a newcomer to the Premier League and the second round of the season is against Tottenham.
I spoke to him after the game and I remember the day I was really excited, we talked a lot about football and it was exciting to have the opportunity to talk to another manager and it was really wonderful to have experiences with other managers.
I've spoken to different managers, Pep Guardiola, Mauricio Pochettino and Jose Mourinho and I want to emphasise that it's wonderful, I have the possibility to share my ideas and work with others, and for me I can learn a lot.
'I'll share my ideas and work with other people and you can learn from them, and when two managers are talking about football, you can spark a spark, but it doesn't completely change your mindset and I can learn a lot from me and my team.
This must be a match full of gunpowder, the highlight of this round of league battles will begin, Chelsea host Tottenham, can league leaders Chelsea continue their recent horrors, can Tottenham get out of the Champions League haze? Let's wait and see!
In the city of London, where there are many strong teams, perhaps the current matchup between Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur is the real London derby.
Whether it is Chelsea or Tottenham, they are currently one of the strongest teams in the Premier League, this game is a London derby on the one hand, and on the other hand, the two teams are also competing for the top four teams in the future, so from the perspective of fighting spirit, whether it is Chelsea or Tottenham, they will have an absolute fighting spirit.
This game was held at Chelsea's home stadium Stamford, although it was said that it was an away game for Tottenham, but Tottenham, which is also in north London, was a few steps away from Chelsea, so there was no talk of a long-distance away game.
From the current state of the two teams, Chelsea is in hot form, Tottenham, the team still ensures a very good competitive state, this game, from the injury point of view, Chelsea's main injury is the team's old injury number, including central defender Barkley and David Luiz.
As for Tottenham, the team's biggest injury is the team's star Harry Kane, but Kane has recovered from injury and is expected to start.
Jones has always believed that when someone special is gone, what will always be left behind? It's like Jose Mourinho leaving Chelsea and Inter, but leaving something behind that is still nostalgic for the current second-team players and fans.
It's the same with great clubs, leaving such clubs, there is always something left in the hearts of the players, good or bad.
Koudic took Jones to the pre-tournament press conference with a high profile: "No one can know everyone, this year they are completely different from last year, and this year we have added great new talents. ”
Jones sat there with a smiling face: "I only care about whether the next game is a beautiful game, how to show the fans the charm of football is our responsibility, the victory is just a result, and I care more about the process, we are lucky to have good players like Costa and Eden Hazard. ”
"Will Costa play today?"
Kodic: "You all know how he's going to be when he's coming back from injury, whether he's going to play or not, you'll know when the time comes. ”
After answering the question, Jones trotted all the way into the dressing room, Costa and Hazard nodded at him slightly, and he began to change out of his training clothes!
With the lights at Stamford Bridge and the fans going crazy tonight, Tottenham are now considered by most to be as good as Chelsea.
But many commentators said today: "The London derby is likely to end in another Chelsea victory, they are not only strong but also have home advantage, the score is about 3-0!" ”
It would be a joke if anyone took the media seriously, because both Chelsea and Tottenham fans are very unaccustomed to the so-called football commentators.
…………
……
As soon as Jones walked into the players' tunnel, he was shocked by the loud noise in the stadium.
The 60,000-seat Stamford Bridge stadium was already full, and the rows of Chelsea fans were so full that there were almost no gaps in the sky as far as the eye could see, all of which were blue shirts and flags fluttering, which has not been seen since the start of the season, not to mention the London derby.
The Tottenham players stood next to the Chelsea players in turn, passing by, and Kane tapped Jones on the shoulder as he passed by: "Hey, boy, long time no see!" ”
"yes, long time no see."
The players are still very friendly with each other, and they are all greeting familiar people one by one, unlike the fans outside, who have almost begun to abuse each other.
If there were no barriers, no police, they might all be able to scuffle together and pat each other on the head with bricks.
"Welcome to Stamford Bridge! Hope you had a nice night! Costa laughed and said something that wasn't humorous.
Kane shrugged: "Is there a master like you?" ”
"This. Haha, if you're having a good time in this stadium, I'm not happy, and I've never said I was a gentleman. Costa spoke loudly without hesitation.
"You just believe you can win!"
"Of course we'll win." Costa's tone sounded extremely firm at the moment: "Even if you take the lead in the race for a while, it won't last long, and the victory will definitely be ours in the end." ”
