Six hundred and twenty-nine, shave your beard
Bayer Leverkusen are a bit worse than Chelsea, but as a German team, they still have their strengths:
That's super will.
The German team has always shown great resilience against tough opponents.
Over the years, their national identity has been deeply integrated into their football, almost becoming an innate instinct, and it is the ability of German football to stand tall in the world of football, or a part of the genes in their blood.
Whoever underestimates them will end up dying miserably.
Lynn didn't want to, so he took his opponent very seriously.
Chelsea can't be beaten to death by their opponents because they are strong, people have the ability, as long as they relax, Leverkusen has no problems at all, Chelsea will definitely be injured.
Two teams with their own characteristics collided fiercely.
Chelsea's character has moved much away from what is being said of English football, and they don't just play with a wide range of plays, but with a delicate combination on the ground.
Compared to the technically rough Leverkusen, it is much more difficult.
They are at a disadvantage across the board.
At the back, the centre-back duo of Vincent Kompany and Pepe were both solid with their headers, and the German's high pitch was of little use to them.
Schurrle was hard pressed by Alves, who had no advantage in speed and technique, and his tried and tested tricks in the Bundesliga were deflated by Chelsea.
Ballack in midfield suffered from the same problem, with compatriot Khedira's defense airtight and the young and strong Khedira constantly attacking Ballack's body. Let the veteran's physical energy drain very quickly.
If it had been 10 years ago, Ballack might have found a way to get out of the opposition's defense. But now, his speed and reflexes have dropped to a limit. Experience alone will not do.
Khedira put enough pressure on him.
In the 25th minute, Falcao opened up the scoring for Chelsea.
Constant assault along the flanks, a successful breakthrough between two defenders, and then a sudden cold arrow!
It was Chelsea's first goal in the Champions League this season.
"Falcao! A wonderful individual performance, Leverkusen's defenders looked so clumsy in front of him that they couldn't catch him at all! Chelsea got off to a very good start! Bayer Leverkusen is difficult. ”
There is definitely a market for the commentator's words, and now any team against Chelsea is trying to avoid one thing and concede first. Because the opponent's ability to climb down the pole is too strong.
In the stands, the Blues fans were already cheering for the victory and believing in their team, with Falcao rushing to the bottom of the stands to celebrate the goal with the fans, and of course, he was inevitably ravaged by his team-mates.
Lynn was also happy that the team was ahead, as a head coach naturally. And the goal was very much in line with what he wanted from Chelsea.
Especially Rodriguez, who sent the pass, that diagonal pass is really ecstatic!
Bayer Leverkusen's counter-attack was quite fierce, and they did not seem to be affected by falling behind, and they appeared quite confident.
Lynn didn't believe how calm they were. That is, Ballack has seen a lot of scenes, and with him, Leverkusen's player mentality can be stable.
That kind of spiritual play is really elusive.
But Lynn wasn't worried at all. Don't look at the fighting spirit of the Germans now, constantly launching fierce attacks on the heart of Chelsea.
But Leverkusen's lack of scoring means has become a fatal flaw that drags its feet.
If it weren't for the tireless running of the Bayer Leverkusen players. They have fouled again and again, and Chelsea's counter-attacks have already torn many wounds on them.
The number of Bayer Leverkusen fans who came with the team was small. However, they chanted morale-boosting songs from the stands, but in front of the more than 50,000 Blues fans, they were not enough to watch.
By any measure, Leverkusen's outlook is not encouraging.
"It's impossible to predict how long Bayer Leverkusen will last, the difference in quality between them is too obvious"
The German commentator said this with a look of helplessness.
Chelsea seem to be the natural nemesis for Bayer Leverkusen, and the tactics of cracking down on the enemy in the past have been almost useless against the Blues.
Could it be that this is life and death?
One of the very strange features of the game of football is that the principle of mutual restraint is very popular.
For example, the Swedish team, before they met Lynn, they won against England for decades, they just won, England has no way to do it, but absolutely no one says that Sweden is stronger than England.
Perhaps the difference in strength has reached a critical point that will weaken this illusory level.
Now, Bayer Leverkusen are clearly inferior to Chelsea.
They are at the bottom of almost every position.
Even the hope of their team, Schurrle, was completely entangled by Alves, and he couldn't play his usual strength at all.
So what hope do they have.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
After holding out for 20 minutes, Bayer Leverkusen's fitness was too slow to keep up with Chelsea.
Ballack was suddenly pressed by a Chelsea player in midfield and he conceded the goal.
Then Chelsea launched a quick counter-attack!
Rodriguez sent a long ball straight into the heart of Bayer Leverkusen, and the kind of behind-the-back ball was a lethal threat if it was successful.
And this time, Rodriguez's passing was very precise and penetrating.
Cristiano Ronaldo plugged in at high speed and faced the goalkeeper directly.
When you meet a player of Ronaldo's level, such an opportunity is as simple as finding something.
2:0!
Cristiano Ronaldo added another goal for Chelsea.
"Beautiful! Chelsea-style goals! From Cristiano Ronaldo! This goal sealed the win, and there was no way for Bayer Leverkusen to escape! ”
The narrator roared loudly and pronounced the final verdict.
The German's characteristic tenacity still supported them not to give up and continued to attack Chelsea tenaciously. But there is simply no way to bridge the technological gap between the two sides.
Heynckes couldn't help it, he chose to give up. Replacing Ballack is tantamount to sending a signal to the players on the field. Forget it.
The game was over, and Chelsea beat Bayer Leverkusen by a comfortable second goal to get the Champions League off to a flying start!
There was a lot of attention to the game, especially those who thought they were Chelsea's worst enemies.
If Lynn knew, she would be laughing so hard that she couldn't stop laughing.
These grandchildren take themselves too seriously.
There were a lot of people who came, and even the already down-and-out Milan duo sent people.
The Super Cup in China made Milanese feel that they needed to have an in-depth understanding of Chelsea, and they all foolishly thought that they would meet Chelsea.
Co-authoring Bayer Leverkusen has been seen as a litmus test for Chelsea.
They want to see just how strong Chelsea really are.
It's just that. Today it seems that Bayer Leverkusen are in terrible form.
Two balls, not too bad.
At least a couple of second-to-two players simply don't understand why Bayer Leverkusen is playing like this on the field.
It is assumed that it was Bayer Leverkusen's sluggish form that allowed Chelsea to win comfortably.
But there was no serious consideration given to why the Germans were like this.
If you are smarter, you will find that it is Chelsea's comprehensive strength that makes Leverkusen look weak.
Some people also lamented that Leverkusen, who set off a red wave back then, was reduced to the point of being bullied by Chelsea, which is really embarrassing.
Don't look at the score at 2-0, but the essence of the 90-minute game is terrifying.
Chelsea are too strong, compared to what they used to be. Chelsea's ability to control is already terrifying.
Those who look vicious will not be able to find a clear weakness in Chelsea.
Even if Bayer Leverkusen plays a hundred games with Chelsea, it is a loss.
They don't have the slightest chance, and that's what shocks people.
It's not a problem that the opponent is strong, but what makes people desperate is not knowing how to deal with others. That's deadly.
Chelsea today feel like they can't find a place to start.
Leverkusen can't do it, just do it yourself?
There are many factors that football pays attention to, but. The most important thing is strength, and it is studied. If you want to beat your opponent, you naturally need to see your strengths and identify your opponent's weaknesses. Fight to the death.
No one or any team can be invincible, but it would be tragic to wait for the opponent to make a mistake on his own.
After the game, when Heynckes shook hands with Lynn and said goodbye, his words were full of powerlessness and helplessness.
His previous confidence has been shattered, and they can't play Leverkusen with such a Chelsea.
Heynckes is also a very characteristic of the German coach, and he is also very thoughtful, after all, everyone has mixed in Real Madrid.
He also wanted to build an invincible team, but as fate would have it, he met a club with a very businessman's business strategy.
Bayer Leverkusen has ambitions to dominate, such as Worrall as a manager, and a boss who has money in his eyes.
As long as it can be sold for a good price, no matter how important the player is, he will be happy to send it away.
Very contradictory team.
Bayer Leverkusen have never been short of money, and they have made a lot of money in the transfer market.
This forced the team to increase the development of young players.
Now is not that era, young players are cultivated, and if they want to achieve results, it takes time to accumulate experience, and the formation of real combat effectiveness is not achieved overnight
Chelsea won, and there is nothing to say about it.
The Premier League's prosperity has been built on the success of several teams on the European battlefield, especially in the Champions League.
They have almost completely abandoned that traditional English style of play and incorporated many elements of continental football.
Football tactics are evolving very quickly, and the sudden rise of Chelsea has accelerated that process in recent years.
The best way to move a league forward is to win, and winning is the last word.
Chelsea have won everything from Lynn's arrival to win everything, and their tactical system and some of their ideas have naturally been sought after and imitated by other teams in England.
In Lynn's eyes, football does not need a tactic, and the same tactics can only illustrate the rigidity of football thinking. It's a complete regression, against the tide.
Chelsea is all about flexibility. Employ different tactics against different opponents.
It was Chelsea before, Lynn who wasn't confident before.
Chelsea have changed a lot this season. It's just that few people realize it.
Lynn is pursuing and exploring a tactic that can be used to take out all opponents, and the reason is that Chelsea are so strong that no one can shake them.
Maybe he's a little impatient, but it's okay to try more.
He's not looking for tactical innovation, it's about looking good, and Lynn had a very good time at Chelsea before he left for England, and Chelsea had a good reputation around the world. That's when a lot of fans fell in love with the Blues.
At the heart of any football tactic is the pursuit of victory, and Lynn knows that.
Chelsea are constantly making corrections, and Lynn is changing himself little by little.
Lynn used a lot of the time to incorporate what he learned and heard into the team's tactics, which earned him the reputation of an expert in tactical innovation, but it was not his own.
Right now. He wanted to perfect a tactic for himself.
As a result, Chelsea began to return to the tradition of football, adding new ideas to build on it.
Lynn wanted to develop a tactic in Chelsea that suited the team's character.
In a sense. There are many differences between the current Chelsea and the Dutch back then.
The Dutch's all-out attack and defense need extremely strong players, so they have a fatal weakness. Once caught by the opponent, it will definitely be a fiasco.
The downside is in Lynn's opinion. It's just too hard, and there's a little less toughness. There is a lack of total control.
Chelsea are now playing with control of the game, not only in terms of tempo, but also about themselves.
When it comes to defending, Chelsea can play a suffocating and desperate defence.
When he wants to attack, Lynn can let the team directly crush the opponent with a mountain of offensive momentum.
And when counterattacking, Lynn doesn't want to give the opponent any chance to parry.
This is the perfect team for Lynn.
To be able to reach this level, a team must have a large number of world-class players, supported by such players on every line and even in every position.
It may not have been possible before, but Lynn feels Chelsea are barely qualified now.
Chelsea can reach an unprecedented peak in his hands, although this is not replicable and will not become the norm for Chelsea in the future, and even in the near future, Chelsea may collapse and fall into a rebuilding cycle.
Lynn still can't escape this temptation!
When Chelsea can't sustain this tactic, it loses its vitality and is ruthlessly carried away by the wheels of history
Guardiola's tactics are not completed by him alone, but after Cruyff transplanted the Dutch all-attack and all-defense tactics to Barcelona, after several generations of accumulation, and bloomed in the hands of Guardiola.
It can be said that Chelsea's current tactics and Barcelona's tactics are both born from the Dutchman's all-out attack.
The difference is that Lynn prefers to be able to add a strong element to his team, not to rely too much on technology, and definitely not to be soft in style, in that case, the team will be easily beaten hard.
Barcelona's tactics already have this weakness, but no one has been able to solve it yet.
Pep Guardiola may be a good big brother, he has enough popularity and prestige in Barcelona, who makes him his own.
Rijkaard is actually not bad, but he is an outsider, although the foundation of Barcelona has been completed by him, but the Catalans, who are very xenophobic, cannot give him that moment of glory!
In fact, Lynn believes Pep Guardiola has gone astray, his tactical understanding is a little worse than Rijkaard's, and Barcelona are now obsessed with possession.
There are often things about possession for the sake of possession, and those fans are still stupid and desperately shouting and cheering in the stands.
Little did they know that their team was on the verge of going mad.
If it weren't for Messi's demon, Barcelona's attacking power would have been dragged down by their tactical deviations, and now the problem has been swept under the rug.
It's just covered up, but the problem is always there.
Football is the pursuit of victory, but also the pursuit of beautiful victory, Barcelona is really so desperate to chase it.
They always want to win big, and they want to win big.
This situation is not unreasonable, and it is very simple to achieve such an effect when encountering a team with poor strength.
The problem is that the Champions League is not La Liga, and the reason why La Liga is not as influential as the Premier League or even Serie A is because they have too few strong teams, too many weak teams, and too weak.
Barcelona were dazzled by the beautiful victory in front of them.
All Lynn has to do is find an opportunity, give Barcelona a slap in the face, wake them up, and let Camp Nou know that there is not only Barcelona in this world, but also a better Chelsea.
Barcelona fans know it, Europe knows it, and fans all over the world know it.
Perfect, strengthened, before meeting Barcelona, Lynn and his Chelsea just wanted to improve their tactical understanding and make their players more familiar and understanding
"Boss, I" Sandro was frustrated, so far, he is the only one in the team who has not been given a chance to play except for the third goalkeeper, and the third goalkeeper still has youth team games to play, but he does not.
But it's no one else's fault, he can't fit into the team at all.
The team-mates were friendly at first, but over time, Sandro felt that he was lonely in the team, and although there were fellow countrymen like Alves, Alves would not communicate much with a little brother.
The status and level are not the same.
For this Sandro, Lynn also has a headache, and he even has doubts about his original choice, this kid didn't fucking do it on purpose.
It's really a little unsightly, this guy didn't learn well at a young age, and he had a big beard and pretended to be a literary and artistic youth.
"Boy, it's just my personal suggestion, shave your beard, and then laugh a little more, and at that time, you will find that there are actually many beautiful things in this world."
"Beard? But what does that have to do with kicking? Sandro didn't get it at all.
Lynn shrugged, "This is my personal advice" (to be continued......)
