In fact, the selection of Li Bin's Tottenham as the touchstone is not what Hiddink meant, but more about Drogba.

In the first half of the season, Tottenham won against Chelsea. That game has always made Drogba very angry: because in that game, he did not have a chance to play until the last moment, he scored a goal, but he could not save Chelsea's decline, and for the next half season, he almost always watched Tottenham ride on Chelsea's head, which naturally Drogba could not tolerate.

From the day he arrived at Chelsea, he couldn't remember any team other than Manchester United who could have managed to keep Chelsea at bay for so long. An opponent like Tottenham, in the past, the scum that he didn't put in his eyes at all, now rides on Chelsea's head, how can he endure such a thing?

'We're going to beat Tottenham and they're going to realise what the real Chelsea are!'

When Drogba said this to the media, he did not think about the quality of Tottenham at all, because he knew very well that as long as Hiddink could make good use of him, Chelsea would be able to play well no matter what. And his words made Li Bin in Tottenham also have a headache - Drogba, a player, is indeed very strong, and Chelsea has him without him, and it is indeed two teams with great differences.

How important is Drogba? Many people have different views on this issue. Chelsea fans think Drogba is the number one in the world, while others think Drogba is a-stirring stick. Li Bin also doesn't think that Drogba is the number one in the world - if it is really a combination of hard power and honor, Eto'o should be considered - but he also has to admit that Drogba, with tactical support, is very terrifying.

Drogba's use is also a microcosm of Chelsea's constant change of coaches: Chelsea's tactical problems have been said so much, in fact, it is one sentence: how can you play without Drogba?

Mourinho has established a team with a top central axis and wings at Chelsea, but this team, with more and more injuries on the wings, a big problem is presented in front of them: because the wings are gone, they can only rely on the middle to eat raw, and Drogba at this time, the importance is above the tactics. If he plays well, Chelsea is strong, and if he doesn't play well, Chelsea is nothing. Terry, Makelele, Ballack, Lampard, Carvalho...... These people are also top players, but in this tactical system, Drogba is the source and the most important point of all tactics. Relying on Drogba as the first point in the front court is a necessary tactic for Chelsea, which is especially obvious when playing defense and counterattacking strong teams, and with Drogba well, Chelsea will be strong. If you don't use Drogba, you can't use Chelsea – it's been a big problem for Chelsea since Arjen Robben got injured. In the first half of the season, Scolari told others at the cost of his dismissal that Chelsea would not be able to play without Drogba. From the later stages of Jose Mourinho's approach, Chelsea's tactics have been characteristic: Drogba is everything about tactics.

It is very undesirable to let one person override tactics, even if Manchester United has Ronaldo and Barcelona has Messi, they dare not all hope for one person. What's more, compared to others, Drogba still has a big problem: Drogba was born in 78, he is older, and in the 08-09 season, he is already 31 years old. At the age of 31, it is already the end of a career for a big center, and the big centers are very dependent on their bodies to play, and after the age of 30, there are not many who can still maintain their top form. Especially if Drogba is still black, black players generally decline faster, and how long Drogba can last is also a big question.

Abu's tactical reform over the years, everything revolves around this: Drogba's age makes him afraid that Drogba is injured and in a slump, and the team will have nothing. Therefore, he kept changing coaches, and to put it bluntly, he was looking for a way to 'win without relying on Drogba'. Abou spent a lot of money to buy Shepchenko, a big price to buy Torres, and to put it bluntly, what he wanted was always thinking about how to get Chelsea to play after Drogba failed.

One can toss a team to this point, and you can know how important it is to be Dodrogba. At this time, no one knows that Drogba can still play football at the age of 35, and people naturally have a lot of worries about him, and Abu wants to reform. This reform, Mourinho can't do it, he established Drogba's model, but he can't come up with an idea of what to do if Drogba doesn't work, and at the same time, he still desperately uses Drogba, which was abandoned by Abu. And Grant doesn't need to say much, his tactics are simply copied from Mourinho. Scolari wanted to carry out reforms, but he went too far and failed, and now Hiddink, although he said that he is returning to the Mourinho era, is also thinking about reform. In Li Bin's memory, Chelsea in the next few years, Ancelotti's reform was the most successful, but because of the improper use of the midfield, he was killed three times by Ferguson in one season, and he was completely defeated and dismissed, Boas wanted to make a big move, but he cut himself half to death, but the most deplorable Di Matteo picked up a bargain: Anyway, Drogba decided to leave that season, so he was used as a livestock to die - this desperate strategy also made Chelsea in 12 years, Drogba played the most and played the last three Champions League games to the best level, Crowned Chelsea's champions – Chelsea's success or failure depends on Didier Drogba.

And speaking of which, Chelsea tossed for several years because they were afraid that Drogba would fall, but Drogba has always held on to it - and the story is quite ironic......

Such a player has just won a coach who supports him to join the team, and he is holding back enough strength to kill his own team - Li Bin also smiled bitterly at this kind of thing, meeting a explosive Drogba is equivalent to meeting a explosive Chelsea, and the two are not much different in nature.

"Hiddink will definitely change Drogba, Mourinho is a little overused Drogba for a period of time, Grant is adding an Anelka, but nothing has changed, Scolari doesn't talk about him, a complete failure of reform, and Hiddink will presumably also make a fuss around Drogba, but I don't know what he will do......"

Esposito was still thinking about this question, but Li Bin was already well aware of the outcome of this question. He remembers the shadow of Hiddink's Chelsea style of play: Hiddink understands that without Drogba, Chelsea will not be able to play well, and at this stage, there is no need to think about what happened after Drogba falls, and he can use Drogba well, so what he thinks about is to reduce the burden on Drogba. And how to lighten the burden on Drogba? His approach was simple, since he couldn't overuse Drogba, then it was better to overuse Essien.

'Mikel was in the back and Frank Lampard and Essien swept in front of him. Completely abandoning possession is to sweep the backfield, with Malouda holding on to the flanks in front, Anelka and Drogba taking turns attacking the opposition defenders, creating chances with their physical advantages, and then scoring on the counter-attack. If it can't be solved in a short period of time, then Ballack will be replaced by Mikel and Ballack's ability to play in a small area to support Chelsea – this is the tactic Hiddink will use. ”

After drawing the schematic diagram on the tactical board, Li Bin motioned for Esposito to come over and take a look, Esposito looked at the tactical map and quickly asked the question, "They played against Villa, you can see so much?" ”

"Of course it's not all watching, I'm figuring out Hiddink's routines and guessing how he's going to lead the team." Li Bin didn't explain it carefully, anyway, he was sure that this was right.

"You're going too far, aren't you? Do you think Hiddink will use Essien to his death...... According to your estimates, how much does Eschender cover? Even if he is really a buffalo with such a large coverage, he can't last a season and has to lie down tired! ”

"The question is, does Hiddink need him for a season?" Li Bin turned around and asked, "Didn't Hiddink only coach for half a season?" ”

These words made Esposito a little dumbfounded for a while, but but, why should Hiddink worry about next season? He was in charge for half a season.

Li Bin looked at the tactical board, and was also doing his own thoughts: Essien's horror, he has a memory. In my memory, in this half season, Essien killed Juventus and targeted Gerrard, and in the Stamford Bridge game against Barcelona, he played a game that amazed the whole world. Li Bin also knows that a running style like his is easy to get injured, and if it is an average player, he will be tired and half dead in two or three games. However, it was Essien, his physical strength was already terrifying, and Hiddink gave him the power to be the core of the team's defense, then, his power will be fully displayed, and this half season is definitely half a season in which Essien can be a god.

However, in the face of such a Chelsea, Li Bin did not think about holding on to maintain the draw. Unlike Liverpool, Liverpool don't have many options against Tottenham's backline, but Chelsea do have Drogba. Drogba's body is too strong, and Li Bin is likely to be smashed by him when he sets up a bus. Moreover, he also has some eager ideas: in his memory, Barcelona's attacks were suppressed by this Chelsea team and could not pass the half, and there was only one shot on goal in the whole game. So, what can your team do at Stamford Bridge? Li Bin's tactics are different from Barcelona's, Barcelona seeks to grasp the opportunity, and would rather pass back when there is no good enough opportunity, but Li Bin is looking for an attempt to the opportunity, and he is willing to let the players try more.

Against a team like Chelsea that completely abandons midfield control and implements a full sweep, it is easy to keep the ball, it is difficult to attack, and it is impossible to play steadily, but what if you fully let go of the speed and have a hard-to-head confrontation with the opponent?

If you don't try it, you won't know what to do. Playing away to a strong team like Chelsea, the chance is very slim, and it is difficult for Li Bin to think of any way to completely suppress the opponent and achieve a complete victory in a game.

"The midfield has picked up speed across the board, the two wings have been utilized, and on the right flank they have tried to combine long-range shots with ribs near the small penalty area, and if Ashley Cole can't get in, they can nullify half of their attacks. Ballack was very tired in the European Championship, his physical strength dropped greatly, he was not very good as a starter, and Chelsea also had to rely on his small skills as the most remedial supplement, they could only use Mikel as the main force, and Mikel's coverage is the best chance of our victory. ”

Li Bin delineated it on the tactical board, this tactic is also a tactic he needs to consider when playing against Chelsea, since he can't withstand Drogba, then he is in the midfield, and he will strive for an advantage.

Li Bin was still very confident in his approach, but it was not until he saw the Chelsea players' playing list that Li Bin suddenly realized that he was wrong.

"Ashley Cole is on the bench and Ivanovic starts?" Li Bin saw this list and immediately understood something.

Moving Bosingwa to the left to fend off Di Maria, and putting Ivanovic on the right to impact behind Bale, in this game, Li Bin is estimating Hiddink's thoughts, and Hiddink is also estimating Li Bin's calculations, and, it seems, Hiddink's calculations seem to be one step higher......
