Volume 1 Chapter 415 The Premier League

'I'm sorry for the last result because we were supposed to win this game, but now we only have one point, which is definitely not a reasonable scoreline"

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger struggled to hide his disappointment at the host's press conference hall at the Emirates Stadium as he drew with Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium, leaving Arsenal two points clear of Tottenham Hotspur, one point behind fourth-placed Liverpool.

Of course, with the last round of the league remaining, no one dares to say that they will win, but the next round Arsenal will face relegation-hungry East London side West Ham United, which is also a tough battle.

Liverpool's opponent is away to Reading, and it will not be an easy game, because Reading is currently fighting for next season's UEFA Cup, and if they reach the UEFA Cup, it will undoubtedly be an honor for everyone in Reading, so this game will definitely be a dead end.

Arsene Wenger was unhappy with the outcome and neither will Mourinho himself.

'I always felt that the penalty and the red card in the first half was a stupid mistake and I don't know why the referee could have made such a mistake in such an important game, because it not only left us with one less man for almost an hour, but also made us miserable for Manchester United'

Mourinho spoke a little calmly, but his tone was very sad and angry, because after this game draw, Chelsea and Manchester United have the same points, but unfortunately, they have a goal difference of 11 goals less than Manchester United, so they can only be forced to sit in second place, if they can't beat Tottenham Hotspur in the last round, then they can only watch Manchester United win the title.

Of course, even if they beat Tottenham Hotspur, it will depend on Manchester United's face to be sure.

The turning point of the game at the Emirates Stadium came in the 39th minute of the first half, Baptista rushed into the box from outside the box and passed Carvalho to form a one-on-one knife, Carvalho broke the ball from behind, formed a foul on Baptista, the referee gave a red card and awarded a penalty, Gilberto Silva scored in one fell swoop, he has scored seven penalties this season.

Jose Mourinho was very unhappy with the decision, he felt it was a misjudgment, Carvalho was clearly a good tackle, not a foul, why should a penalty be awarded and a red card should be awarded?

From Sky TV's non-stop replays, no one can say whether it was a foul or not, but Carvalho made a move with a clear aggression against the opponent from behind, which is inappropriate from any point of view, especially considering that Baptista had already formed a single knife at that time, and perhaps the referee made such a decision based on this consideration.

'I have to congratulate Manchester United, they are finally number one, but it's not a sign of their quality, it's someone who helped them, of course, it doesn't matter anymore because it's over, and if they win the title at the bottom of the game, I'll still congratulate them and congratulate them.'

At this point, Mourinho shook his head vigorously, "But I don't admit that they are better than us, on the contrary, I still think that my players are heroes, the best players in the Premier League all season, we have shown our fighting spirit, and I believe that in the last round, we will still do our best to beat our opponents."

"Because this is the only way we can maintain our dignity," Mourinho said very seriously.

For the Portuguese's words, the reporters on the scene paid attention to it, and asked him whether he would be affected by the previous League Cup final when he challenged Tottenham Hotspur in the last round of away games and met Ye Qiu again, Mourinho gave a firm denial, and said that his team will definitely be able to win.

'I said before that the Carabao Cup final was not a fair game because our opponents saw the Carabao Cup final as the only thing we wanted and we didn't have the desire to compete for the Carabao Cup, so they gave it their all and we had to be distracted from the league and the Champions League, which is obviously unfair to us'

'But for this league game in a week's time we have to win, it's our last game of the season and we only have to win to win the league title, so we're all going to fight for this game and we're going to do everything we can to beat them at Stamford Bridge.'

Some journalists disagree with Mourinho's self-confidence and have argued that Chelsea could get nothing on all four fronts this season.

"When we're talking about a team that's been successful and great, who can just say which titles they've won in a given season? We're talking about their performance on the pitch for a whole and I don't think we lack motivation at all and I don't think the blame is on me and the players for the loss. ”

After a pause, Mourinho spoke again: "I think there are people who don't want to see Chelsea win and see us win four in a row, so, anyway, for this season, I think we have been successful

Arsene Wenger was clearly disagreeable with Mourinho's words.

'The rules of the table obviously say a lot about the table, and the attacking team deserves the title, so I think Manchester United deserve to win the title, so if I had to choose, I would choose Manchester United, but I didn't expect Ferguson to give me a bottle of red wine because he is a notoriously miserly"

'I think Chelsea and Manchester United are both strong teams, but in some very important games, when they need to get points, Manchester United has not exposed problems, while Chelsea is the opposite, this team has been in turmoil, whether it is in the stadium or in the media, it has never stopped, always trying to be in the limelight and be the protagonist."

As soon as Wenger's words came out, all the reporters in the audience were in an uproar, because this should be Mourinho.

'I think losing the Carabao Cup had a big impact on Chelsea's title title because they were in a stalemate with Manchester United at the time, and losing the Carabao Cup final had a big impact on Chelsea's morale, and although they were at the top of the league for a long time, they were never able to close the gap with Manchester United.

As for the current situation of the team, Wenger also said that the team will play well in the last round of the Premier League.

'I have to admit that we are underdogs in the race for the top four in the league, but I don't think we have any hope at all because all the pressure is on Tottenham Hotspur at the moment to take on Chelsea, who are the best team in the Premier League this season, and Chelsea will give it their all to win the title.

'I think the most important thing we need to do now is not to think about whether Tottenham will win or not whether Liverpool will lose, but more about our opponents in the next round, only by beating the opponents will we be qualified to talk about the top four in the league, and football is like that, anything can happen

The pressure on Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho is evident to all the reporters as the Premier League is in an even unprecedentedly chaotic phase this season.

Manchester United and Chelsea are currently the top two in the league on points, but United are at the top of the league on goal difference, but in the final round, United face Portsmouth, who are aiming to challenge for the UEFA Cup.

This team is a typical home dragon this season, there is no need to say much about the strong team that fell on their home turf, even Tottenham Hotspur, it is very difficult to play, so the possibility of Manchester United capsizing in the gutter is not impossible, Portsmouth in order to impact the League Cup qualification, no matter how crazy the momentum is.

If Manchester United are in a difficult situation, then Chelsea are undoubtedly in an even more difficult situation, as they face Tottenham Hotspur, who are aiming to retain third place in the league, which is the best ranking in Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League history, and Ye Qiu and his team will have to fight to retain third place in the league.

In the last round, Manchester United and Chelsea will lose the title if they lose, and if the points of the two teams are still the same after the last round, then Manchester United will win the championship on goal difference, so for Chelsea, the last round is definitely to win.

The situation of Arsenal and Liverpool is also not optimistic, Liverpool is away to Reading, Arsenal is at home to West Ham United, Reading has good home and away results, the team's style of play and style are relatively tough, but Liverpool's style is also very hard, and it is difficult to say who wins and who loses in the competition between the two teams.

But Arsenal met West Ham United, the situation was more troublesome, because the first game of the season between the two sides, Arsenal lost this game at the last moment of the game, so this time even if it is sitting at the Emirates Stadium, but in the face of West Ham United, which is aiming for relegation, it is really hard to say whether the Gunners can win.

Among the three teams that are eligible to hit the third and fourth in the league, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Arsenal are only one point apart, no one is safe, and whoever loses may change the current league standings, and relatively speaking, Tottenham Hotspur is in a more advantageous situation, because with a strong goal difference, as long as a draw, it can ensure Champions League qualification next season.

But relatively speaking, everyone is less optimistic about Arsenal, not only because this team is currently at the bottom of the rankings, but also because Arsenal's ability to play tough games is indeed relatively poor.

As Ye Qiu said before, Arsene Wenger's Arsenal has always been accompanied by the glorious tradition of dropping the chain at the most critical moment, needless to say, it is far away, let's just say that recently, this game played Chelsea, nearly half an hour of eleven to ten, not only did you fail to fight for more goals, but you were equalized by Chelsea's goal at the last moment.

What else can this say? Is it to say that you are unlucky? Or is Chelsea too strong?

These are obviously not excuses, the only reasonable explanation is that Arsenal's ability to play a tough game is indeed very poor, and the chain is always falling at critical moments, but on the other hand, several other teams, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool, have performed well in some key games, and they all have the confidence to play tough battles, at least not like Arsenal, and even the middle and lower teams are not confident.

And Tottenham Hotspur has played more tough battles this season, although there have also been away 0 humiliation to Arsenal and loss to Chelsea, but Tottenham Hotspur has been rushing up from the relegation zone all the way, relying on one tough battle after another, relying on the team's fight one after another.

If this team can't play hard, then there's really not much to say.

But having said that, but now the situation in the Premier League is one link after another, if Tottenham Hotspur meets the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, it is almost a sure win, but the problem is that now Tottenham Hotspur is meeting Mourinho's Chelsea, and the Blues are also aiming to win the championship, and they will do their best, and it is really hard to say who wins and who loses.

So in the news media the next day, there were long interpretations almost everywhere, but no one could give a general idea, and at the end of the day, it could only be said that the Premier League had entered an unprecedented turbulent era.

Martin Samuel, a columnist for The Times, described in his column: "The rise of Tottenham Hotspur this season, like when they beat Chelsea and won the League Cup, has completely disrupted the history and order of the Premier League for many years, and brought the Premier League into a new situation that has never been seen before." ”

"No one can guarantee that Tottenham Hotspur will be able to hold on to their excellent performances until the bottom of the game because they are facing Chelsea, but in any case, Tottenham Hotspur's excellent performance this season has sounded a wake-up call for the previous teams in the Premier League, telling them that from now on the Premier League will no longer tolerate their attitude of eating and waiting for death, and from now on, if you want to achieve something in the Premier League, you have to rely on strength to speak."

In the past, the Premier League was indeed the stage of the traditional top four, even if the performance was bad, at least there was no problem in mixing a Champions League qualification, but now the situation is different, the strong rise of Tottenham Hotspur this season, coupled with Ye Qiu's identity as the owner and manager of Tottenham Hotspur, has made this team an emerging powerful force in the Premier League, and no one dares to underestimate it.

Many people also believe that the Premier League is about to usher in its heyday, and some people have even begun to predict that the Premier League will likely repeat the grand occasion of the Serie A Seven Sisters period, and European football will usher in the Premier League.

For the last round of the league, Ye Qiu didn't talk too much.

After playing the 37th round of the league, he still followed the usual practice of giving the team a day off, and everyone did not need to come to the training base, but directly rested to adjust his body and mind, and after returning to the team on Tuesday, his training was still the same as usual, focusing on recovery and adjustment training, and then never mentioned the last round of the league.

It's not just that he doesn't mention it, everyone at Ziegwell's training base doesn't mention the last round of the league, and even Tottenham Hotspur refused all reporters and media interview requests to avoid the players getting involved in the news war that is hyped throughout England, Ye Qiu also called on all players to concentrate and focus on preparation.

Even on Wednesday, Ye Qiuyu gave up the morning training session and invited all the first-team players to board the bus and all head north to visit the Theorebold training base in southern Hertfordshire.

The season is coming to an end, and the first-team training area at Theobald Training Base has entered the final stage, with many instruments, equipment, and venues ready and all facilities in the training building fully completed.

As some of the staff at Siobold's training base will continue to be staffed by Siegwell's training base, the team is already working on recruitment, mainly for Tottenham Hotspur fans.

For some of the more advanced facilities in the training base, the requirements for employees are relatively high, and professionals are generally invited from outside to work in the training base, which is also Ye Qiu's consistent style, leaving professional things to professional people to be responsible, if it really doesn't work, hand it over to Eliza Moon.

This girl is the most powerful all-rounder, Ye Qiu even suspects that there is nothing she won't do, and anything left to her can help you get organized, so Ye Qiu is still very relieved about the operation of the club.

The team visited the Theorebold training base and were accompanied by staff from the club's press department and took photographs, which will not be handed over to outside journalists, but will be published on Tottenham's official website.

At present, Tottenham Hotspur's official website, fan forum and the team's APp application have been made, and the club is also focusing on promotion, one of the important points is that every time the team acts, there will be some photos and videos taken by the team's employees, and after selection, they will be put on the official website, and synchronized with the mobile phone APp, so that all fans and users who pay attention to the Tottenham Hotspur official website and have installed the mobile phone APpR can see it for the first time.

Every once in a while, Tottenham Hotspur will hold some fan events, for example, Tottenham Hotspur recently launched an event where fans from all over the world can upload their own football videos and videos on HTHHP using mobile phones, the Internet or other means, and link to the club's official website and APp app for all fans to vote.

Fans who have received the top 10 videos from the most popular fans will receive a chance to train with the team at Tottenham Hotspur's new training base at the beginning of next season! Opportunities, which can be as short as one week, can be extended to a month if they perform well, or even stay with the team directly.

After the promotion and publicity of Tottenham Hotspur, this event also attracted some sponsorship, which caused a huge response, at least in the United Kingdom and Europe, there are many young fans and friends who hope to have the opportunity to get Ye Qiu's professional advice, as well as the opportunity to play with Ruud van Nistelrooy, Ribery, Messi, Beckham and other stars.

All of this is part of the team's planned marketing and promotion, but these are soft powers, as the saying goes, you have to be your own, Tottenham Hotspur is still a long way from the top teams, even the giants, and this season is just the beginning.

But there is no doubt that all the first-team players, after visiting the Theobald training base in person, experiencing the various modern and advanced facilities of this training base, and even the advanced training concept, are full of praise and full of confidence and hope for the future prospects of the team.

And this is what Ye Qiu hopes to leave in their hearts
