Chapter 375: A player who is not in good shape

At the start of the game, Watford took advantage of the advantage of the home stadium at Vicarage Road to launch a round of raids.

In the third minute, Watford whipped in a quick free-kick and Deulofeu's left-footed shot from the right-hand edge of the box was saved by a highly focused Courtois, before Richarlison's follow-up shot was blocked by Cesar Azpilicueta.

The shot sent Chelsea fans into a cold sweat, but it wasn't over for a long time, as Zehlal fired another long-range shot from the left in the fifth minute that grazed the post.

The first place in the league was pressed by the team in the relegation zone, and Kodic's good temper also exploded, shouting at the players in the stadium, and saying some ugly sarcasm.

It wasn't until the seventh minute that right midfielder Victor Moses headed over the crossbar from inside the box for Eden Hazard's first failed attempt.

Watford's players pressed up front, much to the discomfort of Chelsea's central midfield, and in the 11th minute Deulofeu fired a shot from the edge of the box.

In the 15th minute, Jones' long-range shot from 30 meters on the left was saved by Carnezis, and in the 17th minute, Jan Mart made a steal in front of the field, and Capoue's cross from the right slid past the goal.

Kodic was stunned to find that his players were in surprisingly poor form today, and they were beaten by Watford and couldn't find the north, and the new back line he was proud of had collapsed.

In the 19th minute of the game, David Luiz made a long pass, Pedro's header was ferried, Hazard's powerful shot from outside the box was high over the crossbar, and in the 22nd minute, Pedro passed the ball on the right side, and Jones' shot from the top of the arc of the penalty area was wide of the far corner.

In the 25th minute, after Pedro broke through on the right side, his direct shot was blocked by Carnezis, and Kodic also saw that it was Perez who was in the best form on the field.

As the game wore on, Kodic's brows furrowed more and more, and he said to himself: What is this kid Jones doing?

Jones completely abandoned the style of play of breaking through the wing, and was always trying to plug the ball, the ball over the top, and the diagonal long pass, trying to tear apart the opponent's entire defense with the long pass, and the effect can be imagined.

Taking advantage of a dead ball, Cordic called Jones to his side: "Jones, what are you doing?" It's not a training match for you to experiment with new ways of playing, Manchester City and Manchester United are waiting for us to drop points! You don't have to think about anything, go one ball first, okay? ”

Jones nodded.

In the 32nd minute of the game, Jones once retreated to get the ball, suddenly turned and accelerated, followed by his Doucoure Doucoure, his feet slipped, and he almost fell to the ground, but he could only watch Jones pass by.

Jones has risen like a comet this season and has become Chelsea's leading figure, with everyone calling him Chelsea's number one danger, but the Watford players found Jones unthreatened.

But they were obviously wrong, Jones's sudden acceleration made Watford's back line suddenly nervous, Pedro and Hazard on the left and right sides have been outflanked in place, Jones gave the ball to Hazard, compared to Pedro He is more familiar with Hazard, more tacit understanding, got along for most of the season, and has cooperated with the winger many times in the game and training.

Eden Hazard masterfully rubbed a half-high ball, the ball went around the head of the defender, Jones had already rushed into the box, faced his own defender, and fired a direct shot into the Watford goal.

Chelsea 1-0 Watford, teammates ran towards Jones excitedly, and Hazard jumped on Jones with excitement.

Cordic was in a trance, Jones was already so strong? He just told Jones not to think about anything, to score first, and Jones actually said that he would score a goal? Kodic was also a little incredulous.

Chelsea's commentator was also excited: "Finally scored, Chelsea was really chaotic in the first half, this goal is Chelsea's style of play, and it is also Jones's style of play!" ”。

The football commentator next to the commentator nodded and said: "Indeed, at least one thing is certain, Jones did not play his speed advantage after the opening, but kept passing, I don't know if he was practicing any new tactics, but found that the new tricks were not powerful, so he had to start breaking through by himself, and he succeeded at once, helping Chelsea to lead by 1 goal!" ”。

'Chelsea's new tactics don't look good, but Kodic is right, Chelsea could win the treble this season, the Champions League and the Premier League teams are studying them, Chelsea's style of play has been studied thoroughly, and if it is not improved, it could collapse in the second half of the season!

Kodic had this idea, but he didn't implement it, because he didn't need Jones's passing, and secondly, he didn't want to sacrifice Jones' goalscoring ability, after all, there is no striker with 50 goals in half a season.

At half-time, Kodic didn't say too much about the tactical problems, after all, no one can say for sure about the form, the ups and downs of the form are normal, and now his team is still ahead, after all, good form cannot be maintained for a whole season.

In the second half, he replaced Tiemoue Bakayoko and replaced Cesc Fabregas, who was slightly stronger than Bakayoko in terms of organization and passing.

And Cesc Fabregas also wants to score, and with just one more goal he will become the third Spaniard to score 50 Premier League goals for the Blues after Fernando Torres and Diego Costa.

It is worth mentioning that there are several players on the wing, they are well aware of Jones' ability, as long as they take the ball, they will give Jones to find a match with Jones.

Jones's outstanding performance not only won the hearts of the media and fans, but also established his unique position at Chelsea, a player who has just turned 18 but is enough to compete for the talent of the world footballer of the year, and the whole team is pampered.

Many players know that if they have a conflict with Jones, one of them must leave Chelsea, and the game has proven this, and how many games have been won are completely dependent on Jones' individual ability.

None of them are fools, and now it's time for this Chelsea team to make a difference, with a lot of glory added to it, not just for Jones, but for them.

There is such a situation in many teams, the big stars in the team affect the manager's tactical arrangement, but Jones will not, and Chelsea has no players who have conflicts with Jones, everyone knows very well that Chelsea has achieved the current results this season, Jones has the greatest credit, seeing that the legendary glory of the quadruple is about to be obtained, no one will have conflicts with Jones at this time.

Giroud replaced Pedro in the 75th minute, Dieni headed in the 78th minute, Doucoure's shot in front of the box was saved by Courtois, Deulofeu passed the ball in the 79th minute, Janmaat's shot from the right side of the box was blocked, and in the 81st minute, Eden Hazard passed the ball and Cesc Fabregas's low shot from the edge of the box was confiscated.

Chelsea added another goal in the 82nd minute when Eden Hazard dodged past the defence and fired into the bottom right corner to make it 2-0.

Watford pulled a goal back in the 84th minute when Janmaat combined with Andreas Pereira to kick the wall and burst into the box to shoot low into the net to make it 2-1.

In the 91st minute, Doucoure passed the ball, Deulofeu's powerful shot from the right side of the box was saved by Courtois, and at the last moment, Hazard's header was crossed, and Giroud's stabbing shot in front of the small box was saved by Carnezis.

Dean blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the score remained 2-1 until the end.

Back in London, Kodic and Ossilai spent the night studying the footage of the game, studying the team's poor form and where the team needed to make adjustments.
