What will happen to the city when Jose Mourinho is in London again?

That is, almost all the media is paying attention, is it the Portuguese madman who is going to return to the Premier League?

If he does return to the Premier League, who will be the unlucky one to be replaced by him?

The hapless Grant became the biggest suspect, although many media outlets felt that Abramovich's re-introduction of Mourinho was a ridiculous and joke of the century, given that the Portuguese had just been sacked at the start of the season.

Ye Qiuzhen didn't know why the madman chose to return to London on the eve of the Champions League semifinals, maybe because he felt that Portugal in the south was too hot now, and he wanted to come to London in the north to cool off, or he felt the football atmosphere in London and wanted to take a look

This is Ye Qiu's answer to the group of reporters who blocked the door of the first team training area of Theobald training base early in the morning, he was surprised, Mourinho is not his person, that guy returned to London, the reporter came to ask him Yu? Isn't it Mr. Afran Grant who should be asked the most? Or, go ask Abramovich?

The security guards of the Theobald training base are hired by a regular security company, and since the team defeated AC Milan, Ye Qiu has issued an order to close the Theobold training base, especially the first-team training area, where idle people are not allowed to enter, and reporters and media can only go to the press building even if they come to attend the press conference.

This also has something to do with the hype from the outside world, after all, Tottenham Hotspur has become the biggest dark horse in this UEFA Champions League, coupled with Ye Qiu's relationship, this team has always been the most eye-catching team.

High exposure and high attention, which is a good thing for professional clubs, at least, provides great convenience for commercial development, because everyone wants to sponsor those teams whose every move is world-watching, so such exposure and attention, Tottenham Hotspur also has a certain relationship with the promotion behind it.

Of course, the team itself does have the resources to attract attention, otherwise, a lot of teams want to ask for media attention and exposure, but even if they send money, the media is not very happy to pay attention to them, because they have nothing to pay attention to.

If you don't have a foundation, no matter how much you pay attention to it, no matter how much you expose it, it won't help

But as the head coach of the team, Ye Qiu also deeply felt some of the influence of the media on the team, at least a very typical example appeared in some players, who would begin to be a little restless after the media exposure and hype, and felt that they deserved to be treated at a higher level, such as the main position.

Regarding the internal contradictions of the team, Ye Qiu has always adopted an internal solution strategy, that is, the things in the locker room are resolved in the locker room, and no one can talk much about the outside world, because he wants to build a united team, at least he can't give the outside world some opportunities to exaggerate the report.

And every time there are some critical moments, Ye Qiu will even take some more dictatorial measures, such as closed training, which will definitely attract dissatisfaction from the media, but over time, they will get used to it, especially some newspapers and reporters who have a good relationship with Tottenham Hotspur, even if it is closed training, they can still get some information from the club.

This is also determined by the current environment of professional football in Europe, whether it is a team or a star, it is no longer possible without the media.

And because there was no pressure on this side, at least with Robert Milson there, Ye Qiu didn't need to worry about the news, so he ignored the complaints of those reporters, and after answering a few questions casually, he blocked them outside the first-team training area and forbade anyone to enter the first-team training area.

Returning to the training area, Ye Qiu noticed that there were already many players on the training ground, and one of them had obviously been training for a while, which could be seen from the training jersey on his body and the sweating profusely.

"Save some effort, David, don't get hurt again" Ye Qiu walked over and said to Beckham with a smile.

The injury he had sustained in December was almost over by the end of February, but he had just returned to training when Beckham began to have a dull pain in his right ankle again, and after testing, it was a recurrence of his old ankle injury, followed by a series of physiotherapy treatments, and it was not until the two days that he was allowed to play again.

"I feel very good now, nothing is wrong at all" Beckham jumped a few times in front of Ye Qiu, and all of them jumped with all his strength to show that his current physical condition is quite good.

The facilities at Theobald's training base are very complete, especially in terms of medical care, whether it is an anti-gravity treadmill or a swimming pool, which is an important means of physical therapy for Beckham, and the effect is also quite good.

If it was in another team, with the current situation of Beckham, he would have come back a long time ago, but Ye Qiu insisted on pressing him for nearly two more weeks, insisting that he recover from his injury and then come back.

"What you have to do now is adjust yourself, don't you?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

It was originally a joke, but after Beckham listened to it, he nodded seriously, "I feel like I'm in great shape right now, I want to play as soon as possible, more games, more games, the better", after saying this, he started a short sprint switchback run

Ye Qiu listened to his words, and when he saw him like this again, he smiled and muttered to himself: "Sure enough, he has a virtue with Ferguson."

There is no doubt about Beckham's work ethic, he will always be one of the hardest working on the training pitch, especially after joining Tottenham Hotspur, he insists on coming to the training base early every day, sometimes even earlier than the coaching staff, and he is usually the last to leave, if not for the free-kick training that prevented him from taking free kicks while he was recuperating from an injury.

Although Beckham is not the captain of the team, his prestige in the team is quite high, not because the team is in the Premier League, nor because he is a superstar, but because he has accumulated and established his prestige on the training ground, so many young players are infected by him.

Just imagine that a superstar with such a big name is so diligent, what reason does the other players have to be lazy

Of course, Ye Qiu can also feel the urgency and sense of crisis in Beckham's heart, because his position within the team is no longer as stable as before his injury, and even he must now use his performance to regain the main position from Modric's hands.

Beckham has the advantage of Beckham, Modric also has the advantage of Modric, not to mention, the recent media disclosure of Tottenham Hotspur wants to bring in a midfielder in the summer, which undoubtedly further strengthens the competition in the team's midfield, not only Beckham is under pressure, but all other players are also under pressure.

As a friend of Beckham, Ye Qiu felt that maybe he was a little sorry for his friend, after all, Beckham worked so hard and worked so hard, but there was no way to get a corresponding reward for his efforts, but as the head coach of the team, he knew very well that this was the cruelty of professional football.

It's as if he has also given a lot of effort and energy to some players in his team, but when they are seduced and poached by those giants, he is also excited, and he has nothing to do about it.

The only thing that can be done is what Beckham is doing now.

Whether it's a football club or a person, the most important thing is to strive for self-improvement, not complaining.

For Tottenham Hotspur now, self-improvement means competing for as many titles as possible, especially in heavyweight titles such as the Premier League and Champions League.

After reaching the semi-finals, the opponent was Chelsea, and in Ye Qiu's opinion, Chelsea was much better than Liverpool, because he didn't think that Grant could do anything to Chelsea.

It's obviously a lot more fun to face such an opponent than to face Liverpool, isn't it?

All you have to do is cross Chelsea and wave at Tottenham Hotspur for the Champions League final

Even, if you go further, it is the king of Europe

Ye Qiu has always been proud of offensive football, because in his opinion, this is just a way to win, no different from defensive counterattacks, the purpose of the two is the same, there is nothing to be proud of.

But at the same time, he also said that he doesn't like that kind of conservative football, he likes to be proactive.

So there was once an Italian media accusing him of this, thinking that he was attacking the Italian football style intentionally or unintentionally, but Ye Qiu later clarified that he said that he definitely did not look down on the idea of Italian football style, on the contrary, there are quite a lot of traces of Italy in his football philosophy, especially from Sacchi.

"I personally think that whether it is an active attack or a defensive counterattack, it is an art of football, and I never think there is anything wrong with defensive counterattack, because the ultimate goal of defensive counterattack is to counterattack, not to defend, so even if it is a defensive counterattack, his attitude can be very positive, is there a problem with this?"

"I said I don't like conservative football, what is conservative? It's all about your attitude."

"In my opinion, as long as you have a positive attitude, even if it is a counterattack on the defensive, or even a defensive defense, I don't think there is anything wrong with it, on the contrary, I will often watch some videos of this, especially when they are in the organization of the defense, which is the essence of a tactic."

If Afran Grant had heard of Ye Qiu's words, then he would definitely feel that the tactics he arranged today were not appreciated by Ye Qiu at all, because he had only one attitude, that is, to hold a draw from the White Hart Lane Stadium.

Maybe he didn't do it smartly, because his line-up and post-opening tactics completely revealed his purpose, which was to block Tottenham's attack with a solid defence.

Chelsea played away from home, with a 44-man goalkeeper of Cudicini, Ashley Cole, Carvalho, John Terry and Pacos Ferreira at the back, midfielders Michael Ballack, Claude Makelele and Mikel, Frank Lampard in front, and Wayne Rooney and Didier Drogba up front.

It's a bit like a 44 tactic, but Rooney's position is closer to the flanks and often drops back, while Lampard's position is relatively deep, obviously consciously to strengthen the defensive intensity of the midfield, as well as to play the wings to suppress Tottenham Hotspur's attack.

Ye Qiu still adopted the 433 tactics in this game, the goalkeeper is Cech, the back line is Vargas, Hangrande, Thiago Silva and Alves, the midfield is Modric, Mascherano and Cesc Fabregas, and the front three players are Ribery, Van Persie and Messi.

The start of the game was actually dull, with Chelsea almost making their central midfield impregnable.

Tottenham Hotspur got a lot of time on the ball, tried and tried to get the ball in again and again, but it didn't work, then it went back, it regrouped, it tried to go forward, it didn't work, and so on, and so on, and so on, and again, and the tempo never picked up, because Chelsea didn't seem to have the desire to get into the attack

Tottenham Hotspur fans in the stands at White Hart Lane were quite dissatisfied with the visitors' tactical play, and tried their best to stimulate and humiliate the opponent with words, because such a stubborn defense is not worthy of Chelsea's identity and so many stars.

But Avran Grant was unmoved, sitting in the away team's dugout, immovable, because he knew very well that now for him, he could only ask for the result, not the process, and the Champions League was his only chance, so even if he held on, he had to defend to the final.

Jose Mourinho sat in the stands at White Hart Lane and watched the game with his own eyes, and Tottenham's aggressive lateral shifts and pull-and-pull passes during the game gave him the impression that the squad was clearly much more mature than before.

'This team is improving so fast,' Mourinho said to his agent, Jorge Mendes, who was sitting next to him.

"Whether it's Franck Frangieva, Lionel Messi, Cesc Fabregas or Robin van Persie, or Vargas, Thiago Silva, Mascherano and others, it's progressing very fast."

If it was at the beginning of the season, maybe he could still feel the youth and immaturity of Tottenham Hotspur to some extent, that is, in the grasp of the rhythm and process of the game, but now, Tottenham Hotspur's patience and calmness give him a feeling of confidence.

"If you talk about attack, ball control and skills, Tottenham Hotspur has no problem beating Chelsea at all, and even has a good chance of winning the Champions League" Mendes also felt so, with a look of amazement, "If you win the Champions League again, it will be Ye Qiu's third Champions League, this guy is indeed not simple"

After Mourinho listened, he squinted his eyes and glanced at Ye Qiu in the command area of the home team's coach's seat, and smiled coldly, "It's not that simple, all finals are completely different from other games, don't forget the painful lesson of our Porto back then"

Porto also reached the final with great difficulty, but it completely collapsed in the Champions League final and was bloodied by Chelsea led by Ye Qiu, and that battle also became a shame for Mourinho.

If to some extent, Ye Qiu's tactics and team strength definitely do not have such a big advantage, but the key to the problem lies in the psychology of the players, which no head coach can accurately grasp, and can only rely on the players themselves to adjust.

Don't look at Tottenham Hotspur played AC Milan before, now playing Chelsea seems to be progressing rapidly, it seems to be very mature, but it is immature, and they have to wait until they really reach the final to be able to do it, whether it is Barcelona or Manchester United that they meet next, they are very experienced teams, maybe Tottenham Hotspur will be completely exposed by then.

For what people always say, the wealthy and the aristocracy have a background, usually this kind of heritage is not visible in ordinary times, and you can only see the difference between them at the critical moment, the moment of life and death.

The do-or-die moment in football is undoubtedly in the final, the World Cup final and the Champions League final, which is the real measure of a team's strength and leverage, and the other games are not convincing, no matter how well they perform, it will not help.

"Do you think there's hope for Grant?" Mendes looked at Mourinho with a smile, he didn't realize the meaning of Mourinho's words, because he was not a manager, so he felt that Mourinho was more belittling Ye Qiu, and he was already used to it.

"That fool lost the game from the start" Mourinho shook his head and sneered, he always felt that it was not a big problem to fire himself, the real big problem was to hire an Afran Grant, what else does this guy have besides a mouth?

"As Alex Ferguson said, to play Tottenham Hotspur you have to suppress their momentum, this is a team that is very good at playing momentum, or rhythm, as long as you make them increase their momentum and play their rhythm, then you are not far from death"

After a pause, Mourinho sneered: "That stupid Israeli still thinks he's smart and has gathered heavy troops in the midfield to defend, but he probably didn't think about the point of doing it at all. A passive retreat will only fuel Tottenham's momentum and confidence. ”

Only those who have been a manager can appreciate the importance of momentum and rhythm, because when the momentum and rhythm are on your side, no matter how you play, you can easily defeat the opponent, and on the contrary, when the momentum and rhythm are far away from you, no matter how hard you try, you still seem to be extremely far away from the goal.

Of course, momentum and rhythm are not static, as big as a game, as small as a minute or two, or even a defense, an assist, a pass, can change the momentum and rhythm of your team, and then change the game.

Tottenham Hotspur is well aware of this, so when Chelsea chose to retreat, Ye Qiu's team showed unprecedented confidence and calmness, slow passes, slow backwards, slow pulls, waiting for opportunities to appear.
