Another potential shortcoming in Chelsea's current squad is the ability to play hard.

Of course, there should be a difference in this tough level, like playing Manchester United Arsenal, also in the renewal or defective opponents, Chelsea does not seem to have a fatal problem, but playing Millwall, a team that combines old and new, and some core players are at the peak, it seems that the ability to resist pressure is slightly insufficient.

Robben, Franck Ribery, Duff, Joe Cole and even Drogba have the ability to play a key role in the headwind, and the will to step up and turn the tide, is impossible to expect.

On the Millwall side, Henry Jr. carried the offensive banner in the front court, and in the backcourt, Nesta Schneider played a heavy role in the defense, and the morale of the whole team mobilized was significantly stronger than that of the opponent.

This is the potential determining factor of the game after excluding the technical and tactical odds.

After 80 minutes of the game, Chelsea seemed to surrender at home, the whole team could not form a unified idea, completely passive defense, even if there was a counterattack opportunity, but without teammates to step forward to increase the counterattack attack point, the counterattack opportunity could only be wasted.

Millwall, for their part, are starting to wrap up the season, winning this game and winning the league title and then shifting all the focus of the season to the Champions League.

Aldridge replaced three attacking players with three substitutions and used defence to secure the win.

While the commentators were discussing whether the Chelsea manager's position was secure, Jose Mourinho was sitting in the dugout. His expression was numb. But his heart was unusually calm.

He knows his first season at Chelsea ended in failure.

Second in the league. For the arrogant him, it was a failure.

In the past, he led Porto to play against Millwall for two consecutive years, which could not be used as a major reference, and it was impossible for him to collect intelligence on the enemy or learn more about Millwall.

But today, when he led Chelsea to a fourth meeting with Millwall in a season in 2004/2005 that ended in defeat, he began to learn from it. Lessons learned.

In his mind, it was as if a slideshow was playing, scene by scene, the details of the past three encounters, and today's encounters from beginning to end.

From the external environment to the real war on the field, he wants to have an insight.

Where did you lose?

It doesn't matter.

Because there are many possibilities for failure.

It's never possible to find a pattern on the football field.

You want to find out how to win, or how to avoid losing, which is difficult because the two teams are the same. You won't play exactly two games, and you'll probably run out of tricks. In the end, because of a player's mistake, the referee made a foul that could not be awarded and changed the overall trend.

The dreamers in football pursue the majestic creation, while the utilitarians are demanding perfection in the details.

Mourinhoche experienced the fierce competition in the Premier League and felt the helplessness that Wenger and Ferguson had felt.

At this point, with a one-third of the home fans already out of the stadium at Stamford Bridge and looking besieged by all the betrayals, Mourinho summed up some lessons on how to face Millwall without falling behind.

First of all, strategically, if they want to beat Millwall, Chelsea must not be passive.

For example, in the league, if Chelsea are behind in points when the two teams meet, they are very passive strategically, and this passivity will directly affect the team's line-up and put the opponent in an advantageous position, if it is in the Champions League, then it is even more important to calm down, like Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League hope to beat Millwall at Stamford Bridge, this idea itself is wrong, because the idea is getting stronger and stronger, it will only make Chelsea's prospects darker and darker, because strategically, you still let your path narrower and narrower.

The league needs to accumulate advantages, and the cup competition must be calm, and the real strong must not only know how to forbear, but also have the temperament of tenacity.

And like the first leg of the league, Mutu's drug abuse turmoil has naturally affected Chelsea, not to mention that there will be a negative impact on the strategy, but at least there will be fluctuations in the morale of the military, and when a strong enemy is coming, internal change is a taboo on the march.

Tactically, Mourinho doesn't have a lot of tricks, Chelsea's approach is generally based on his plan, so it is unlikely that he will change everything, so he can only follow this path firmly, and he believes his team still has a lot of room to grow.

The defense must be firm, but this season four times to play Millwall, at least 3 games to prevent the counterattack has not been able to play a particularly good effect, even the breakthrough of Millwall door seems difficult, excluding the strong Millwall squad and no injury, Chelsea's counterattack routine is too monotonous predictability is also one of the shortcomings.

In other words, if you can't eat hard one-on-one, the threat of counterattacking from the wing will plummet.

Originally, Chelsea had a stable "strong eating" point, that is, Robben, but now that the season is almost over, look at Robben's attendance, only about 50%, the Dutch glass man is sometimes a huge threat on the field, but the injury has affected his stability, which has brought instability to the long-term construction of the team, such as on the eve of a key battle, Robben is injured, then it will be a fatal blow to the tactical arrangement.

If you want to fight Millwall, you can't defend against it, and the extreme anti-reverse may improve some success rates, but if you want to pursue the most extreme, there is only one last way left: put the bus!

7-8 people to defend, 2-3 people to attack!

It's as simple as that, it doesn't matter if you shrink into the forbidden area, on the other hand, this may make the opponent push up to the limit and expose a wider space behind you.

When Mourinho's musings ended, so did the game inside the stadium.

After the referee's whistle, Mourinho got up and walked to the tunnel with his hands in his pockets, and behind him, Millwall substitutes rushed into the pitch to celebrate. Countless Lions fans singing and dancing in the stands.

The moment you walk into the players' tunnel. Mourinho couldn't help but look back. He saw that Aldridge and Henry Jr. walked into the stadium shoulder to shoulder, he looked at the man's back, not hateful, but the stubbornness and firmness in his heart were more determined.

Next season, I won't lose again!

Never!

The Chelsea fans in the stands were depressed, turned and walked away in silence.

Some of the Chelsea players in the stadium walked straight to the tunnel at the end of the game. Some lowered their heads on the field to show a look of helplessness and disappointment.

Their season is over!

Even with two league games to go, they have already set a record for the highest Premier League points in Chelsea's history, but they still have to watch their rivals declare their title defence on their doorstep!

"At this time last month, Fleet Street defined April 2005 as 'London Rivals Armageddon Month', with Millwall and Chelsea in a 180-minute do-or-die battle in the Champions League, winning to reach the last four of the Champions League, and on the final day of the month, Millwall came to Stamford Bridge with a five-point advantage in the table. At the end of the 90 minutes, they beat Chelsea 2-0. It can be said that they were officially crowned the seventh crown of the Premier League here, and successfully defended the title! Next, they have to work hard for the Champions League, there are only two games left before the success of defending the Champions League, of course, they will first have to beat Juventus at home, this season's Premier League competition belongs to London, Chelsea have risen to prominence but it is difficult to shake Millwall's dominance, Millwall continue to conquer all strong opponents with their strong table, they are likely to win the title again with a record of breaking 100 points, but that is really irrelevant, because the standings are also their own zào. ”

When Aldridge walked into the arena with Henry Jr., Ronaldo suddenly asked next to him: "Boss, is it particularly relieving to announce the championship here?" ”

Henry snickered.

Playing Chelsea, Millwall is particularly energetic, in fact, the relationship between sworn enemies does not affect them too much, but after the defection of past teammates, this hostility has skyrocketed, and a bloodthirsty wildness has erupted, as if in the bottom of their hearts they must crush Chelsea!

Teach those traitors a hard lesson!

The stadium at Stamford Bridge reverberated with the magnificent singing of Millwall fans, and in this situation, the corners of Aldridge's mouth turned slightly, and he turned his head to Xiao Luo and whispered: "If I say that the mentality is very normal, this must be hypocritical, right?" ”

Xiao Luo grinned.

Aldrich continued to laugh, "yes, yes, it's just-relieved! And this is not enough, far from enough, we are going to suppress them for a year, two years, five years, ten years! Mortal enemies, it's better to keep stepping on their heads! ”

Xiao Luo patted Aldrich on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, no problem!" Look at their cowardice, they don't dare to attack when they play football on the field, hehehe, fight once, clean them up once! ”

"It's not a small breath, if you can maintain your form this season for five years, you can only say big things with your nostrils turned to the sky!"

"Ha, rest assured, a qiē wrap on me, no problem!"

Ronaldo ran to celebrate with his teammates, and Aldridge exchanged some more with Henry, who put his arm around Henry's shoulders and said softly: "Thierry, you have scored a lot of goals over the years, you have been the first target of the opponent in attack, and there are even many teams that have adopted killing tactics against you, I think it's time for you to play more flexibly and unpredictable." ”

Henry didn't quite understand what Aldridge meant, so Aldridge bluntly said: "I'm going to change the way the team plays on the offensive end next season, and I hope you can make the final transition at the top stage of your career and make some sacrifices." ”

In the summer, Henry will be 28 years old.

Although 28 years old is the peak period for most forwards, for talents like Henry, Owen, Raul, Piero, etc., who played before the age of 20, their peak seems to be unable to last longer, not that their peak is short, on the contrary, Henry's peak state from 99 to this year, more than 5 years, is already a miracle.

He needed to make a transition, also because Millwall had a new king of goalscorers on the rise.

Just as Ruud van Nistelrooy wanted to make way for Ronaldo in the original history, Aldridge hopes to let Henry play the role of a passer on the offensive end in the new generation of Millwall construction, and under his cover, reduce the pressure on Kaka and Ronaldo, and then make it easier for them to shine!
