Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It was 3 February, the day of the 25th round of the Premier League, with Chelsea away at Blackburn.

This season, Blackburn's performance at the beginning of the season was a bit unsatisfactory, but as the league progressed, their results gradually improved, and after getting rid of the relegation quagmire, they still rose slightly, and are now ranked 13th in the league, this position of the team has no relegation crisis, and there is no competition for European qualification, so the current league for Blackburn, win or lose does not matter at all.

The same is true for Chelsea, who are now 20 points away from Chelsea in second place, and in this case the league title is basically in hand, and the players are also focused on other competitions, so they don't pay much attention to the league, and the two teams in such conditions can't really cause the media to be excited, because they know that the game will definitely not be too intense.

In this game, Wang Li did not enter the starting lineup, in fact, the current Premier League has been used by Mourinho as a training place, if he can, he will even choose to give up some games, to shift the focus to other events, so, Chelsea used more than half of the substitute lineup, many rookies, substitutes and other players who are usually difficult to play on the field have been given opportunities, such as Geremi, Glenn. Johnson and Oliveira and others, while Wayne, who has just been freed from injury. Brigi, who was also sent on by Mourinho, made him feel excited.

In contrast to Chelsea, Blackburn have the full squad and have been eliminated in other competitions, so they don't need to worry about fitness at all, and there won't be much injury problems in a week of league games, even if it's still a season of injury-heavy winter.

In this case, Chelsea did not play smoothly, and in the absence of Wang Li, Blackburn actually fought against Chelsea at home.

At the start of the first half, Blackburn's forward Jonathan Rovers. Douglas opened the scoring for the team. Just 20 minutes later, Scott Brown, who started the game, was in the game. Parker's header equalised for Chelsea.

The game was in a state of scorching heat until the 73rd minute of full-time, when Chelsea took advantage of a penalty and Frank Lampard put the game in peace.

……… After returning to London from Spain, in addition to the necessary training every day, Wang Li accompanied Angela every day, and the relationship between the two of them was like glue, and the relationship was extremely warm, and even Wang Li was now thinking about whether he should get married.

Before, he still felt unbelievable about this topic, perhaps with some evasion of the surname, but now, he is already thinking about it.

As the princess of the royal family of England, even if the royal family is more of a symbol now, but getting married is by no means a simple matter, whenever the two talk about this topic, Wang Li still feels a little headache, he has been dating for so long, he has not even met Duke Edward, which makes him feel very guilty.

But luckily, at least lately, he didn't have to worry about it, because Angela was going to study in the United States.

Wang Li is in his villa near Stamford Bridge.

"Anne, are you all packed?" Wang Li half-knelt next to a trolley box, carefully folded his clothes and carefully packed them into the box, turned his head and asked.

Angela wore a close-fitting black velvet jacket, held a comb in her hand, walked over and lay behind Wang Li with a smile, wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "It's all ready, Uncle Cole's car is also outside, we should hurry." ”

"Okay, okay, if you don't let go, I think you'll waste more time."

Angela snorted, turned her head and kissed Wang Li on the face, and said, "You're going to miss me, right!?" ”

"Yes."

"I believe it." Angela said with a smile, let go of the hands holding Wang Li, half sat on the edge of the bed, picked up a few pieces of clothes on the pair, stuffed them into the suitcase, and then directly zipped them up, and said, "That's it, it's useless to fold it so neatly, anyway, it will have to be washed when the time comes." ”

Wang Li smiled, spread his hands helplessly, and said, "You are always like this." ”

"What? Dislike me? ”

Wang Li didn't say anything, put his arm around Angela's shoulder, kissed her fiercely, and only after Angela's face was a little flushed did he say, "I will go to the United States to see you when I have time." ”

Angela stared at Wang Li's face and said gently, "I'll wait for you." ”

On the evening of February 6, a passenger plane bound for Los Angeles set off from London International Airport... After sending Angela away, Wang Li's mind returned to the team's game.

Maybe it's been a very unusual year for Chelsea and for the Chelsea fans, because they have the potential to win a lot of trophies that they never dreamed of before. And for Wang Li, this year is no different, you know, he didn't have any championship trophies before this, as a footballer, honor is even more important than money.

So, in addition to training at the club, Wang Li used his free time to constantly watch some game videos, in fact, he rarely watched these things before, which also shows how much he attaches importance to the next games.

The focus is, of course, on Barcelona.

In February, while the Carabao Cup final is the most important thing, a trip to Spain away to Barcelona is definitely a top priority, as it is a matter of their mentality in the second round in March.

As for the Liverpool team, Wang Li is no stranger, he does not think that the almost one-man team of Gerrard can beat Chelsea, so he does not pay much attention to this game, in his opinion, after the victory over Manchester United, the League Cup trophy has been reached.

As for the league?

Wang Li is just coping with it now, because he himself doesn't know if manager Jose Mourinho will send him on the pitch in the next two league games.

On 8 February, Chelsea host Manchester City.

In this game, Wang Li watched the whole game from the sidelines as a substitute, and even when the team was in a stalemate, Mourinho did not send him on, and in the end Chelsea drew 0-0 at home to Manchester City, which was also the first draw Chelsea suffered since the start of the season.

As the team that ended Chelsea's winning streak, the Manchester City team was clearly very excited, even if there was a lot of water in this 'finish', they were inexplicably happy, after all, even many big teams have not been able to do this kind of thing.

At the post-match press conference, Manchester City coach Keegan became the protagonist, and many media reporters were interested in his mood at this time, but the former world footballer of the year, a legend in English football, was not very interested, he just said lightly: "It's nothing, Chelsea is a strong team, they have won the league title steadily, so in this game, they didn't send the main squad at all, Allen. The king also did not play. ”

'A draw like this doesn't mean much, it doesn't say much about how good we are, it's just a little bit more lucky, and if we had met Chelsea in the early rounds I'm sure we'd be the losers.'

Since the beginning of the season, almost all reporters have been expecting a team to end Chelsea's winning streak, but after the real end, the protagonist will not be very interested, and even throw out the argument 'we are just lucky', this extreme contrast between the front and back, does make these people feel very depressed.

However, this won Mourinho's favor, and when asked by a reporter what he thought of the game, the Portuguese gave a rare compliment to his opponent: "Manchester City's performance is much better than last time, although I didn't send a full line-up, but the performance of the players on the pitch is not bad, the results speak for themselves, Manchester City's current results are closely related to their strength." ”

In fact, Manchester City have been doing very well this season, they are now eighth in the league and will be hoping to compete for a place in the UEFA Cup next season.

After the game, Wang Li returned to the club and the residence of the two-point one-point life, since Angela left, he has been like this recently, which may seem a little incomprehensible to others, but Wang Li, who is a third person, enjoys this ordinary life.

In fact, he has not been in the league these days, and he has been working on his free-kick skills lately.

Because the team spent the afternoon training 'zone attack tactics' a while ago, and Angela came back from the United States to accompany him, Wang Li's free kicks did not improve much for a long time, so now that he has time to practice, he has almost all the time to practice free kick skills.

For free kicks, Wang Li still has a great advantage, especially in terms of strength, which is very important, for simple shooting, strength is very important, such as a free kick 30 meters away, when the average player kicks the ball to the balls, the flight of the football has no speed, even if the angle of the ball is tricky, there will be no threat, but Wang Li is different, at least within 40 meters of the shot, he can play a good strength to ensure that the flight speed of the football is fast enough, that is, All he needs to train is the angle.

It's easy to say, but at a distance of 30 meters, it takes a nice angle to get the ball around the wall, which requires the ball to make a nice arc in the air, which is extremely difficult to control.

However, Wang Li has always believed that as long as he works hard, he will succeed, so in addition to regular training, he has to practice free kicks for 2 hours every day to ensure that he can kick free kicks at any time and let his free kick level slowly improve.

A lot of time in this life has come to February 12, when Chelsea went to Liverpool en masse to take on Everton away.

If you talk about dark horses, the dark horses of this season's Premier League are undoubtedly Everton and Middlesbrough, both of which were not favored before the game, but their results are indeed outstanding, and now Everton have secured qualification for the UEFA Cup, and even hope to compete for a place in next season's Champions League.

As an ambitious manager, David Moyes' goal for Everton is to secure a place in the UEFA Cup and qualify for the Champions League, so every point in the league is very important for Everton.

Despite Chelsea's strength, David Moyes knows Jose Mourinho will never field his full squad in the league, so he feels a win is still a good possibility.

Unfortunately, he was deeply disappointed by the Chelsea line-up, with 10 of the 11 players who started the pitch being absolute mainstays, and the only thing to dispute was the goalkeeper position – if not the main one. Clark's strength is also unquestionable.

In fact, Mourinho doesn't attach too much importance to the result of this game, he just wants the team's main players not to forget the feeling of playing, so they let them play, especially Wang Li is the most, Mourinho is afraid that he will not play in two games and can't find the feeling of playing, then the gain outweighs the loss.

However, what Mourinho didn't expect was that Moyes had been 'unscrupulous' for the league points.

Wang Li, who has not played for more than 10 consecutive days, was very active in the game, and in the opening 7 minutes, he used his personal ability to shake off three Everton defenders in a row, creating a chance for a single goal, and then opened the scoring for Chelsea with a random pick, so that all Chelsea supporters saw that Wang Li did not decline because he did not play, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

However, as the game progressed and the Everton players moved more and more, the game came to a halt and by half-time, the game was almost a hand-to-hand fight.

At this point, referee Riley was the busiest man in the game, he kept running back and forth, left and right, the whistle in his mouth was 'ticking', and Chelsea could no longer play any decent attacks. It is clear that Everton are trying to use this tactic to disrupt Chelsea's attack, so that in the chaos, it is possible to fight for a point or even win.

David Moyes is well aware that Chelsea, who are aiming for a 'quadruple', simply cannot afford to !!

In fact, it was the same, faced with this situation, Mourinho immediately replaced the injury-prone Alking. Robben and Scott. Parker, and instructed the players to shrink the defense, reduce the chances of fouls, and constantly nagged with the fourth official, telling 'they have no sportsmanship', 'this kind of game will make more players get injured and go off', but unfortunately, everyone knows that the fourth official is the 'punching bag' sent by the FA, and it is normal to just nod his head and not do anything, in fact, even if he wants to do something, he does not have this right.

In this way, the game once fell into a stalemate, but at the beginning of the second half, in a foul by an Everton defender, Chelsea got a free kick in a good position, Wang Li personally rewrote the score to 2:0, this goal also made Everton coach Moyes a little desperate, although he knew from the beginning that even if he used foul tactics, the chance of winning was not great, but when he really faced the result, he looked at the black-haired boy who scored another goal, or produced a kind of powerlessness from the heart.

It's not that we don't work hard, it's just that the gap is too big!!

In the end, Chelsea won 3-0 away at Everton thanks to Frank Lampard's header, and Mourinho did not shake Moyes' hand at all, instead walking away in anger.

The Portuguese's approach apparently made Moyes very embarrassed, and in his post-match press conference, he kept emphasising that Mourinho was 'uncultivated', 'rude and reckless', etc.

However, Mourinho's frustration was clearly justified, with the Evening Standard headlining "Mourinho's gladiators repel the filthy snakes", Mourinho said: "It's true that we haven't won the title yet, but we showed that we have what it takes to win it, and last night we confirmed that we are capable of taking on the challenges ahead, we showed our team spirit, our tenacious defence and our fighting spirit." ”

Mourinho was extremely unhappy with Blackburn's brutal foul tactics, "I hate this kind of game, the opponents are always looking for opportunities to get our players injured, I was worried about that yesterday and thankfully they didn't get it. They felt they couldn't beat us in football, so they used other means to attack us, and they didn't hesitate to use brutal moves to try to force our players to give up. The guy in their midfield [Gilbany] had at least 20 more fouls and didn't have a yellow card, which makes it difficult to control emotions. ”

Mourinho smiled dismissively at Moyes' post-match accusation that he didn't shake hands, saying: "I had shaken hands with him several times before the game, so I went back to the dressing room with the players, his statement was ridiculous, the game was over, I was happy, I wanted to be with my players, I didn't want to be with other people. If I had seen Moyes when I left, I would have shaken my hand. ”
