Chapter 759 Heavy Reward Policy

The next day, the European mainstream media continued to focus on Manchester United and Chelsea's Champions League final for the second consecutive season.

This final could be a revolutionary change for the whole of European football.

No other team in the history of the Champions League has met in the Champions League final two consecutive seasons, let alone two teams in the same league who have reached the final of the Champions League two seasons in a row.

As a result, the British media, whether they support Chelsea and Manchester United or not, celebrate the achievements of both teams on this day.

"Last night, after the final second leg of the 2008-2009 Champions League semi-finals, Chelsea beat Barcelona 3-2 at home and met Manchester United 5-3 on aggregate for the Champions League final, a result that has never happened in the past 53 years of Champions League history! What's even more incredible is that both teams are from our Premier League, in a way...... The Premier League is the best league in all of Europe, occupying three of the last four of the Champions League for two consecutive seasons and reaching the final of the Champions League for two consecutive seasons......"

Headline of the day from The Times: Premier League = best league in Europe!

Even the headline given by the French newspaper France Football was in favour of the Premier League: "When Manchester United took the lead in the second leg of the first Champions League semi-final, the Champions League final against the team can be said to be expected, Chelsea beat Barcelona 2-1 at the Camp Nou, they will definitely have a better chance of winning the game when they return to their home stadium, plus Mourinho has not lost at home in the seven years he has been in charge of Benfica, Porto and Chelsea. And they also have the in-form Ai leading the attacking line of the frontcourt team, so the victory is logical......"

"Pep Guardiola's Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 6-2 away four days ago, but after all, he has only been in charge of this Barcelona for a short season, and the tactical concept has not been fully integrated into the team, and Chelsea has a mature style of play under the guidance of Mourinho, plus the front line and Ai This kind of individual offensive player with super ability, there is no need to worry about scoring goals in each game, although Messi's progress is very obvious, but there is still a long way to go compared with Ai......"

Bild: "This year's Chelsea is Jose Mourinho's fifth year in charge, and his tactical play and thinking are fully integrated into this team, with a super goal machine like Iello in the case of a steady counter-attack, which makes their simple tactics like a fish in water, plus Croatian international Luka Modric, who joined Chelsea this season, makes this tough Chelsea team inject more technical elements, both ornamental and practical. Reaching the Champions League final in two seasons is no surprise and if nothing happens, Chelsea will become the first team to defend the Champions League title since the restructuring! ”

……

The mainstream media focused on the two teams that met in the final, while some small newspapers focused on the small stories and tidbits during or after the game, the most notable of which was the scene where Iroh tried to shake hands with Messi after the game but was refused.

Of course, these news did not attract too much attention, because Barcelona was eliminated by Chelsea led by Iro, and it is normal for Messi to be in a bad mood.

Now that it's normal, what's the point of hype?

History has always been written for those who succeeded.

While the mainstream European media continued to focus on Chelsea and Manchester United for the Champions League final, the two teams tacitly prepared for the FA Cup final at the new Wembley Stadium a week later.

With just three games remaining, everyone knows the league title belongs to Chelsea as they are still nine points clear of second-placed Manchester United.

Even Manchester United had to come to terms with the brutal result, not believing that Chelsea, who had two home games in the final three league games, would lose three in a row, so they chose to half-abandon the Manchester derby and focus on the FA Cup final in midweek.

As long as Chelsea pick up points in the league at home to Arsenal at the weekend, they can ignore the result from Manchester United and go straight to the Premier League trophy!

Hardcore Chelsea fans are back in the heat of beating Barcelona to the Champions League final in midweek and are back at Stamford Bridge to watch the Premier League title defended.

Everyone knows it's okay to have Aylo, and this game is no different, even against Arsenal.

Of course, Chelsea still have to stay in the FA Cup final next week and it is impossible to put out a full squad when the league title is basically in place, but considering that Arsenal were knocked out of the Champions League final at home to Manchester United in midweek, morale must be extremely low, and their top-four position is very solid, and it is unlikely to cause Chelsea problems at this time.

Even though Chelsea played an all-substitute lineup at home, they still relied on two goals from the second half substitute to help the team win the game 2-1 against Arsenal, which can be regarded as avenging the loss at the Emirates Stadium in the first leg.

In another Manchester derby at the same time, Manchester United, who played as a substitute, narrowly beat Manchester City 1-0 away, and the gap with Chelsea is still nine points, but because there are only two rounds left in the league, even if Chelsea loses the remaining league and Manchester United wins, it is impossible to reverse and become the champion.

In other words, Chelsea won the Premier League title this season two rounds ahead of schedule with 36 games, 31 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss, accumulating 97 points!

Arsene Wenger turned and went into the dressing room without even shaking hands with Jose Mourinho after the game, while the Arsenal players on the pitch did not want to watch the Chelsea players celebrate in full swing.

Abramovich, who was sitting in the VIP seat, was very excited, especially with regard to the return on such investment.

What is the purpose of investing so much money almost every season? After all, it's not for the championship?

It's exciting to think that he has won four league titles in the six years since he took charge of Chelsea in 2003, the FA Cup and League Cup, and the chance to win two Champions Leagues in a row......

All the investment is worth it!

There is one last step left before he can build one of the top European giants - a stadium of his own!

He has even decided to announce an additional £5 million for the FA Cup winner and a £10 million bonus for the Champions League winner at the club's celebration party tonight!

As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards.

What do professional players play hard for? Not to make money yet??

So...... Abramovich wants to add another boost to the team when they have absolute strength!

After captain John Terry accepted the Premier League trophy from the Premier League on the podium, it was the turn of the traditional player-to-player, player-coach, and even player-fan interactions.

Even Iello and Mourinho, who returned to the dressing room, could not avoid the emotional spoofs of the players.

What left Iello speechless was that he followed Mourinho to the regular post-match press conference, when he was passionately expressing the team's next goal, Mikel and Modric tacitly took champagne and sprayed him wildly, and the freshly arranged hairstyle was messy again.

However, he is in a good mood, just helped the team reach the Champions League final in midweek, and today with his wonderful performance, he helped the team win the league title two rounds in advance, in this context should be a good lightheart.

Even though there was an FA Cup final in three days' time, Mourinho gave his team a day off.

That evening, at the behest of owner Roman Abramovich, a simple celebration was held, so simple as one announcement: to win the FA Cup and the Champions League, and a total of 15 million pounds in prize money!

Suddenly, the players, coaches and staff erupted in loud cheers.

Two wins can spread an extra £10 million, don't be a fool!

Plus the championship was what they needed......

Mourinho smiled and looked at the excited disciples, he believed that under the heavy prize, he would definitely fulfill his promise to defend all the champions!

The next day, Papa Adrian returned to Iroh's house to test his mouth.

Papa Adrian, who had read a lot of people, could see Iro's impatience at first sight, but thinking of the 10 million euro lobbyist fee that Florenti promised, he had to be cheeky and continue to analyze the various stakes with Iro, but the final result was still not what he wanted.

In the end, Iroh had to tell him clearly that it was impossible to transfer to Real Madrid!

As a Chinese, he has always had the traditional virtues of nostalgia, Valencia is where he grew into a world superstar, it is impossible for him to join Real Madrid and his parent team, plus he is very happy at Chelsea, why change places?

And...... He's already the best player in the world, there's no need to prove anything.

In the end, Papa Adrian had no choice but to say goodbye to Iroh.

As Real Madrid's select president reached the last minute, Florentino, who learned the news, had to abandon the introduction of Aiello and instead specialize in Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema......
