Chapter 514: Poor Grant

"Look at Zhang"

Many TV cameras pointed to Zhang Tiehan standing in the stadium, holding up his fist, and various commentators also commented, "Zhang Zhen is like a hero, yes, he is the hero on the field, maybe every player can be called a hero by fans, but Zhang is the best among them, he is a hero among heroes"

"Now all opponents facing Chelsea have a headache, that is, how to limit Zhang's play, but obviously Arsenal is not doing well, perhaps Arsenal has not been able to limit Zhang Tiehan's excellent defenders at all, Toure has not been able to play in this game, their other young defenders, compared to Zhang, are like a three-year-old child"

The commentator's analogy is definitely a bit too much, and Arsenal fans will definitely be very upset when they hear it, so he quickly realized this, and began to repeat the commentary on the goal just now, and the TV camera also switched to the goal replay, focusing on Zhang Tiehan's shooting action.

"It's hard to imagine that this barb was made by Zhang, you must know that he is a big man with a height of more than 1.9 meters, and he can be so flexible on the court."

Then he talked about Cesc Fabregas, and in this slow motion, Fabregas is definitely a background, and a high-level background, especially when the football rushes over his shoulder, it is estimated that many people have pinched a cold sweat for him - if the football did not rush over, but struck him in the cheek, it is unimaginable!

"His luck is really good, maybe it's also Zhang's footwork is very good, he should be glad about that, otherwise the consequences," the narrator kept saying.

In fact, on the pitch, Cesc Fabregas was really scared into a cold sweat.

When Zhang Tiehan shot just now, he didn't expect Zhang Tiehan to use such an action to complete the shot. As a result, he only looked stunned, and then suddenly the football rushed to his ear, and he stood still and didn't move, for a long, long time, until the central defender Sendros patted him on the shoulder. He came back to his senses, and when he thought about the scene just now, he was terrified.

He was a little glad the ball went in

Compared to a goal, or even a match between Arsenal and Chelsea, Fabregas still feels that his face is more important, it is estimated that the kick in his face, the broken nose bone is very likely, and the broken phase is also very likely, he doesn't want to suffer that qiē.

Then Fabregas's eyes when he looked at Zhang Tiehan were a little complicated.

Ever since he made his debut at Arsenal, he has been faced with a name. That's Zhang Tiehan, he has fought with Zhang Tiehan many times, but every time he fails, he knows that he definitely has a shadow in his heart for Zhang Tiehan, the confident skills and abilities in the past, whenever he sees this guy, he has no confidence at all, but it is conceivable that he will face the other party in the future. It will definitely be even more unconfident.

For a moment, Cesc Fabregas had mixed feelings.

At the same time, the rest of Arsenal's players had mixed feelings, and they were full of fighting spirit before the game. They also played a fluent combination and a pressing attack for a while at the start of the game, but in the end they couldn't score a goal, and Chelsea counter-attacked to score a goal in such a short time. Especially this goal is extremely exciting, in an almost impossible situation, the opponent's No. 9 Zhang Tiehan scored again, why do you say 'again', in the impression of many Arsenal players, Zhang Tiehan broke their goal too many times. If you want to talk about the average value, it is definitely more than '2', with an average of more than 2 goals per game, so it's no wonder that they feel that Zhang Tiehan 'often' scores.

This goal also frustrated the Arsenal players!

They tried so hard and they didn't score, and now they're behind the score, and they don't know what to do in the next game, is it going to be another failure?

A lot of Arsenal players think so.

Chelsea, on the other hand, have become full of fighting spirit, before the game, there was indeed a little problem within the team, the conflict between Shepchenko and Grant affected the whole team, which led to the game against Arsenal, they did not have much thought, in fact, there was not much preparation, many players felt that if this problem could not be solved, they would have a big problem.

It was reflected on the pitch of the game, which was that they were pressed by Arsenal.

Even though Arsenal are attacking teams, this is Stamford Bridge and Chelsea being suppressed says a lot, but now they are back in spirit.

What about the problems within the team?

Look, now we're ahead, it's Arsenal, they were arrogant before the game, and the result? It's not that we scored first, we have Zhang Tiehan's team, and each of us is a very good player, even if there is any problem in the team, we are still very strong, and it is not the opponent who can defeat lightly!

The Chelsea players thought so and they were motivated to go into the next game.

So in the next game, Chelsea's attack played more fiercely, which also allowed them to continue to maintain the suppression of Arsenal's half after the game restarted, Arsenal wanted to attack completely unable to attack, they are an attacking team, but now they are very passive on the pitch.

It's a delight for Blues fans.

In fact, they were very worried before the game, not because of how arrogant Arsenal was, but because of the contradiction between Shepchenko and Grant that the media broke to be honest, the idea of Blues fans is much simpler, they will not support one side, because in fact, they have no good impression of Grant and Shepchenko, Grant failed to bring anything to the team, Schupchenko's table is very poor, he is just famous and has not played, such a player does not matter at all, this is England, not Ukraine, Shepchenko is good at AC Milan, but he has yet to prove himself at Chelsea.

But whether they support it or not, they are worried about the state of the team.

The internal problem of the dressing room is definitely not a small problem, many times this kind of problem can affect a team, under normal circumstances, a player and the manager have a conflict, it is not a problem at all, especially in England The popular manager is the manager of the team, the manager is dissatisfied with a player, and he can leave the team directly.

But

Chelsea are different now. This is something that everybody knows.

When Jose Mourinho was in charge of the team, he had that right at all, but Grant was different, Abramovich didn't trust Grant at all, and even said that there were many players in the team. And even the Blues fans don't believe in Grant, an Israeli who hasn't proven himself, what's the big deal? He's just a temporary worker for the team to find a good coach for the time being.

Shepchenko is just a player, but he is not an ordinary player, he is worth 30 million euros, which the team bought at a great price, and the chairman Abramovich also trusts Shepchenko very much, in this case. Grant can't control Shepchenko at all, the two fight in the ring, and Grant even has the upper hand, so you can imagine how big a problem Chelsea's dressing room is.

Therefore, fans are worried that the team's results will be greatly affected.

Many pessimistic Chelsea fans don't even count on this game, they just want the team to solve the problem, but the point is that it is not easy to solve the problem.

Good thing for now. The team's form didn't affect much, more importantly. Zhang Tiehan has not been affected, and he is still strong on the court.

The Blues fans breathed a sigh of relief and began shouting for the team again

For the current game on the field, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger feels helpless.

He didn't feel good when he saw Chelsea press Arsenal back, and sure enough, Chelsea scored soon after. It made him feel powerless.

For several seasons, he has faced and played against a team with Zhang Tiehan every season, and so far, Arsenal have all lost on the losing side, even Wigan Athletic a few years ago. That also gave Arsenal one less Carabao Cup title.

Now facing Chelsea with Zhang Tiehan again, it is even more helpless.

Not to mention Chelsea with Zhang Tiehan, it is the average Chelsea, it is very difficult for Arsenal to win, Chelsea left Mourinho, came Zhang Tiehan, Wenger's feeling is more difficult to deal with, Chelsea's tactics are very simple, their cooperation is also a little worse than last season, the obvious gap is the whole, but in terms of personal ability, Zhang Tiehan is too outstanding.

Compared with Zhang Tiehan, as the commentator said, Arsenal's players are like children.

Arsene Wenger thinks so, too.

Arsenal has a lot of talents, including Senderos in the backfield, Fabregas in the midfield, even if Adebayo in the front court is not very old, they are all real football geniuses, but the gap with Zhang Tiehan is really too big, the most obvious is that the team's backfield can't prevent Zhang Tiehan at all, which also leads the team to be very passive, every Chelsea attack, every time Zhang Tiehan takes the ball, it makes Arsenal's defense face a strict challenge.

Arsene Wenger is well aware of Arsenal's characteristics.

In fact, teams that are good at attacking have this characteristic, that is, they are good at playing tailwinds, especially Arsenal is still so 'young', young teams are good at playing tailwinds, and when the situation goes well, they can play amazingly.

But as it turns out, Chelsea are also adept at playing tailwind.

When the situation is up, Chelsea's performance is also very good, during this time Chelsea suppressed Arsenal in 20 minutes, only two poor shots on goal, did not pose a threat to Chelsea at all, the returning Cech can only stay in front of the goal and watch his teammates play, he even yawned a lot, it is estimated that he did not mean to, but it still made Arsenal feel very unhappy.

But they soon disregarded Cech's yawn as Chelsea scored again.

It was in the 41st minute that Zhang Tiehan burst forward on the flank, crossed the middle and handed it to Frank Lampard, who fired directly into the net from the edge of the area, and the score was rewritten to 2-0, with the home team in front and the visitors behind, and Chelsea led Arsenal by two goals.

"Frank—"

"--Frank Lampard-"

The Stamford Bridge commentator shouted, "2:0! Frank Lampard scored Chelsea's second goal and it was fantastic to have a two-goal advantage before half-time! ”

As he commented, the Blues fans cheered.

Less than halfway through the game, Arsene Wenger didn't have much confidence, he wasn't a man to give in lightly, but with two goals in 40 minutes and still at Stamford Bridge, how difficult would it be for Arsenal to complete a comeback in the second half?

As for the first half, Arsene Wenger was no longer counting on it.

The game played out in the same way, with Arsenal looking to pull a goal back in the second half of the first half, but in the end they were unable to find the back of the net for Chelsea and the two teams went into the break 2-0.

However, at the end of the game, the atmosphere of both teams was a little dull.

Arsenal are down by two goals because they are behind and they vowed to beat Chelsea before the game, so it's no surprise that their players are in a good mood.

The Chelsea players didn't have much to worry about the game, but when they returned to the dressing room to face Grant, they were actually a little bit resistant in their hearts, and before the 'Shepchenko incident', the team didn't have so many problems, and the atmosphere was generally good. Now, after the Shepchenko incident, many players have a lot of opinions when they think of Grant's inaction in the team, especially those players who have just transferred, such as Ballack and others, they actually support Shepchenko, because it is really difficult for them to integrate into the team, there is no fixed tactical routine, and it is too difficult to really integrate into it, so their table Xiàn has also been affected.

In the end, the team as a whole is not very happy with Grant.

That includes the veteran players.

In fact, many players in the team still miss Mourinho, why did Mourinho leave? This has a lot to do with Zhang Tiehan, everyone knows this, but it is difficult for them to 'hate' Zhang Tiehan, after all, Zhang Tiehan is a player like them, and his appearance is quite good, and the relationship between Mourinho and Zhang Tiehan is a private contradiction, a competitive contradiction, it is not that Zhang Tiehan used any unsavory means to force Mourinho away, to say the root cause, it is just that Zhang Tiehan is too good, if this is also a mistake, then they don't have to work hard.

So they shifted the target, and Grant was shot while lying down, who let him take over the team?

A coach who has no name and no ability, parachuted into Chelsea, and their dissatisfaction is naturally placed on Grant, who is in a difficult situation now.

The media is dissatisfied with Grant, the fans are dissatisfied with Grant, and most importantly, the entire Chelsea team is also dissatisfied with Grant, and within the Chelsea club, Abramovich does not trust Grant.

One can imagine how difficult Grant's situation was.

To be sure, the countdown to his time at Chelsea has begun. (To be continued......)
