After the Champions League game, Mourinho wisely chose not to make any excuses about Chelsea's quality. His bet on the future can be said to have nothing to fault, even if the media is dissatisfied, they can only agree with this statement. However, his statement naturally raised another question for the media: Chelsea said they were betting on the future, so is this Chelsea really able to soar in the future, as they say?

Opinions in the media are also divided, with some believing that Mourinho's second year in charge will definitely be better than his first, so next year will definitely be better. However, it was immediately pointed out that if this were the case, Chelsea would be doomed in the third year. Looking at the development of a team, looking at these laws is unreliable after all, compared to those empiricism, looking at the strength of the team is the safest way.

And I have to say, if you only look at the strength, Chelsea said to win in the future, I'm afraid it is not so easy to achieve, look at this year's Champions League games, you know, with Chelsea's virtue that Wolfsburg can't even beat now, it is very difficult to win in the future.

This year's Champions League semi-finals are all in contention at this time, and just look at these names, it will not be so easy for Chelsea to win in the future.

After all, many of the teams Mourinho is familiar with are no longer the main force in the Champions League. For example, Manchester United, after reaching the quarterfinals of the Champions League this year, unfortunately encountered Real Madrid. And in this confrontation, Manchester United lost without suspense.

After two rounds of matches between Manchester United and Real Madrid, Manchester United played 1-2 and 1-3 in the other. The two games were lost in a row, with an aggregate score of 2-5. also announced that his Champions League road has come to an end. And in addition to the confirmation of Manchester United's exit in this game, another thing has also been determined. It was after this game that Manchester United's coach David Moyes stepped down, which was no longer the speculation of the media, but basically turned into a semi-official matter.

Manchester United have lost the Champions League and David Moyes has proven that he is not a magical manager. He's been able to succeed in the Champions League for a while, but it's hard to keep winning. Under his leadership, Manchester United fell out of the Champions League zone in a historic way, and there was no way to get results in the Champions League, in this case. There was no longer any reason for him not to leave class.

In fact, it is fair to say that Manchester United have played much better in the Champions League than in the league. It's just that the strength is a matter of strength, no matter how hard they try, they can't beat a team of Real Madrid's level. After all, even if the level of the coach is high, it is difficult to take Ashley Young to defeat Ronaldo, the absolute strength of the two sides is too different, and with the level of the coach, it is impossible to make up for it.

Not to mention. It is true that Moyes's level of coaching is not higher than that of his opponents: Carlo Ancelotti, the current manager of Real Madrid, is arguably one of the best coaches in the world at cup competitions, from Milan to Chelsea, from Paris to Real Madrid, he has managed every team he has managed. All of them have had a very good experience playing against opponents. Moyes may have some advantages compared to the average coach, but compared to such super old fritters. He's just an average guy, two games. Manchester United's tactics were completely suppressed by Real Madrid, and he couldn't find anything to do. Those who lose are also powerless to resist.

Of the Champions League semi-finals, Real Madrid was perhaps the easiest to win. After Carlo Ancelotti took over, Real Madrid have suffered a lot of problems in the league this season, but in the Champions League, they still look the most promising.

Compared with them, Bayern, another favorite to win the title, is in a lot of trouble. In this round of the competition, their victory was quite difficult, and it can even be said that they advanced to the semi-finals in a near-death way.

Before the start of this round, Bayern had been rated highly. As last season's Champions League winners, their quality is unquestionable. After being replaced by Pep Guardiola, a strong contender for the world's number one coach, Bayern has not lost a single defeat in the league this season, and the results are also extremely good. In the Champions League, they have also been soaring, and even many media have shouted the slogan of Bayern defending the Champions League before the game, and it is also determined that Bayern's strength is almost unmatched.

However, in the game, Bayern played far less well than they did in the league. In the away game, Paris also gave them a hard down. In this game, Paris Saint-Germain has almost always pressed Bayern from the beginning of the game, even if Bayern tried their best, they failed to beat their opponents, and they only got a 1-2 defeat away from home, which can be regarded as an embarrassment.

It was only then that people remembered that just a few years ago, Blanco, who is now in charge of Paris, led Bordeaux that year, and Bayern, who successfully suppressed in the Champions League, had to compete with Juventus for second place in the group. Bayern that year was also not weak, and even reached the Champions League final, but they did not bargain against Ligue 1 teams. The team in Ligue 1 is not so easy to deal with, and if you underestimate your opponent, you will also suffer because of it.

Fortunately, in the second leg of the game, Bayern, who returned to their home stadium, did not make too many mistakes. In this game, they made it 2-0 early to regain the upper hand. However, what people didn't expect was that in the final stage of the game, through an unexpected corner goal, Paris successfully turned the big score into 3-3, and the game was dragged into extra time, which also made Bayern suffer enough.

Franck Franck Ribery's goal in extra-time ultimately saved Bayern, but it was a bit of a surprise that their game would play like this. After all, in the eight-in-four game, Bayern's opponent can be said to be the most inconspicuous one in the quarterfinals. Paris Saint-Germain's team is the only team in the top eight that is not from the three major leagues of England, Germany and Spain, and it is also a team that was not favored by anyone before the game, no one thought that they would be able to force Bayern to this step.

Although they are well-known local tyrants, in the eyes of many people, the local tyrant team can't play the giants, Manchester City is in front of them, that is the most typical example. However, Paris used their performance to prove that local tyrant teams can also play well, and this game is afraid that it will also make Bayern unforgettable.

And this game is probably one of the biggest reasons why the media thinks Chelsea need to work harder: the current Champions League is not the Champions League of a few years ago, some big teams have fallen now, and some new teams have grabbed their places. Wolfsburg's shock win over Chelsea and Paris' near-win over Bayern Munich all showed the power to shake the giants.

Of course, although these teams are strong, it is obviously not them who stand out the most. Outside of them, the final game of the Champions League is the most eye-catching. If it can be said that there is an excuse for Chelsea to be upset, then Barcelona was upset by Atletico Madrid in this round of games, and there is really no excuse to find it.

Perhaps this year's Champions League eight-in-four match is the most upset game in the past games. At the same time as Wolfsburg's victory over Chelsea, Barcelona were also knocked out in an upset. Against Atletico Madrid, who are in the same league, they played at a rather embarrassing level, and they also lost to Atletico Madrid over two legs.

The match between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid was the fewest goals in the four. As a La Liga team that has always been marked by attack, the result of the game also feels quite strange. However, if you have watched the game, it will not be strange at all. In these two games, Simeone's team used fouls that can be said to be wonderful or rude, so that the game is completely in their hands, and the attack that Barcelona wants cannot be played at all. Barcelona lost 1-1 at home, 0-1 away and lost 1-2 on aggregate to Atletico Madrid. When Mourinho was unlucky, Barcelona, who had been entangled with his grievances for a long time, also fell with him, and they stayed away from the disputes of this year's Champions League together.

No one thought that Barcelona, which was once in the Champions League and would be promoted to the top four almost every year, would lose to Atletico Madrid in the same league this season. In the league, they were beaten by the younger brother of the same league and couldn't lift their heads, and in the Champions League, they were also easily defeated.

Obviously, the strength of these newly rising small teams cannot be ignored. If the wealthy families in the past still want to lie on the credit book, I am afraid it is unlikely. Paris, Atletico Madrid, Wolfsburg, these teams are rising rapidly in the Champions League, and their quality makes the claim that Chelsea win in the future does not seem so reliable.

Even if it is compared to the future, Chelsea may not really win.

Of course, for the giants, the rise of small teams has never been something they worry about, after all, the giants have the advantage of economy and appeal, which is enough for them not to worry about any small team being able to challenge them. Mourinho may not be able to beat Wolfsburg, but Abu makes a move, it may be a different situation, after all, there are always a few players who can resist the temptation of money, and with money, the giants don't have to worry about any threat.

However, even if you want to hollow out these teams, you will have to wait until next year anyway. At least in this year's Champions League, these small teams will have to go on a long way. At this time, the Champions League match also gave people a new interest: in the next round of the Champions League, Atletico Madrid is about to meet Wolfsburg. This question is also very interesting.

Wolfsburg have been playing well lately, but will they be able to compete with Atletico Madrid, a formidable opponent that even Barcelona have beaten? And after reaching the semi-finals, Wolfsburg has basically completed the Champions League task, do they want to go further? Gao Shunyao was injured by Terry in the middle of the game, will his injury affect the next round of the game? These questions are of great interest to the media now, and the answers to all these can only be answered by Wolfsburg. (To be continued.) )
