Chapter 237: 64 times achieved
The fans' fears are not unfounded.
Outside the generals, everyone understands the truth that military orders are not subject to them.
What's more, this year is the third year of Mu.
In fact, before the start of the season, the media hyped "Mu three years" for a long time.
It's just that with Jose's return, he single-handedly forcibly reunited the originally somewhat divided team.
And as the team changed formations, the results got better and better, and the players found their favorite style of play, and the so-called "Mu San" disappeared without a trace.
For Mourinho's sudden change of formation, no one knows the reason for it, whether it is outside or within the team.
After that day, it was as if José had never been to Mourinho's office.
It can be said that as long as the two don't say it, no one can know the inside story.
Eden Hazard is undoubtedly his favourite when it comes to changing formations, because most of the time, he doesn't need to drop back to participate in the defense.
With the configuration of five defenders, the defense is still very powerful.
And Jose occasionally sent long balls with big feet, giving Hazard plenty of opportunities for individual performances.
As Eden Hazard's performances became more and more eye-catching, the title of 'King of the Ball' was also resounding at Stamford Bridge.
Hazard's outstanding talent is definitely worthy of this title, but his lazy personality will eventually become an obstacle to his continued development.
Just when the fans were worried about the result of the game, the score on the field changed.
In the 32nd minute, Costa took advantage of the passing error of the opponent's central defender and made a successful steal in front.
After getting the ball, Costa struck into the box and faced Guzan, who fired into the far corner.
The goal went in, 1-0.
Villa fans are used to such results.
Chelsea have always been Villa's biggest sufferers, with the 8-0 defeat three years ago fresh in their minds.
They didn't have much hope for this game.
Villa also had an equaliser before half-time.
Grealish won the ball on the right, got past Baba and tried again to break down the box.
Kurt Zouma wanted to come up and intercept, but Jose had already made the first move before him.
Jose made a pounce, stole the ball from Grealish's feet, and then brought him down.
Grealish must have been unhappy when he was brought down, but when it became clear that Jose had put him down, he was speechless.
"You're too weak, aren't you? Fall down with a light touch, and be careful that the referee sentences you to dive. Jose had the ball in one hand and Grealish in the other.
"You did it on purpose, you definitely did it on purpose." Grealish looked a little angry.
"No, no, I'm just helping you gain experience. You play football so cheaply, more people will definitely want to blackfoot you in the future, I just let you get familiar with it in advance. Jose said this to Grealish after throwing the ball to Cahill.
"You have a reason, I don't care about you." Grealish puffed up.
It was at this moment that the whistle blew for the end of the first half.
"What's wrong? Is this angry? José walked over to Grealish and tapped him on the shoulder.
"You were scaring me just now, didn't you?" Grealish asked.
"Is it necessary for me to do that? You know, we're adversaries now. Jose walked straight into the Chelsea dressing room.
Jose is certainly not alarmist, and it can be said responsibly that any player who likes to dribble is more likely to be blackfooted than anyone else.
One of the most important skills for these dribbling players is to protect themselves from injury when others are tackled.
Hazard has done a very good job in this regard.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
With a one-goal lead, Cesar Azpilicueta and Baba both dropped back to full-back.
Although Mourinho boldly made a change of formation experiment, the conservative character engraved in his bones still put more attention on defense.
The tempo was not fast, there were not many shots on goal, and there were even fewer threatening shots.
Villa, who fell behind, had a slight upper hand on the ball, and were still suppressed by Chelsea in all other aspects.
In the 54th minute, Cesar Azpilicueta crossed from the right.
The ball went three yards in front of the goal in the six-yard box.
The Villa right-back cleared the ball with his foot and stabbed the ball towards his own goal.
2 to 0.
At this point, there is no suspense in the game.
Mikel, Pedro and Oscar then came off the bench and the main players were given a short break.
Grealish worked very hard, but unfortunately he couldn't change the whole situation alone.
Not to mention that he is facing Jose, even other ordinary goalkeepers, with the defensive ability of Chelsea's back five, Grealish cannot break it alone.
In the post-match ratings, Grealish had the highest score in the Villa squad.
[The task is completed, congratulations to the host for getting the reward of doubling the points, and your base points will be increased to 64,000 points.] 】
When the referee's whistle blew, the system settled the reward on time.
Looking at the reward of up to 64 times, a flame of hope finally ignited in Jose's heart, it had been a long time since he had earned so many points in one go.
The more points you have, the more chances Jose has to get stronger.
The things in the points mall, Jose has been coveting for a long time.
I just don't know if I can continue to win the Champions League group stage in midweek.
At the press conference after the game, Mourinho wanted to call Jose to attend with him, but Jose directly refused.
He hated being in front of a large group of reporters the most.
Of course, he still likes the one-on-one interview with the beautiful woman.
Grealish did not return to Birmingham with the squad and instead played Jose's Big G.
José kicked the gas pedal and drove Grealish towards his restaurant.
Twenty minutes later, José drove outside the newly opened "Jose's Restaurant" in London.
"Jose, is this your restaurant?" Grealish looked at Jose in shock.
The two haven't seen each other for more than a year, how did Jose become something he didn't know at all?
"Go in, don't say I won't invite you." After José finished speaking, he walked straight inside.
The biggest difference between a Chinese restaurant and a Western restaurant is that the atmosphere is different, the Chinese restaurant highlights a lively atmosphere, while the Western restaurant emphasizes tranquility and comfort.
José didn't choose to go into the box, but sat down by the window.
He loved the feeling of sitting by the window and watching the people on the street, and looking at those strange passers-by, José couldn't help but let his mind fly.
"You can choose what you want to eat." Jose handed the menu to Grealish.
As a result, Grealish ordered a large table, especially the "deep well roast goose", and when there were only two people, Grealish actually asked for a whole one.
In addition to the "deep well roast goose", he is also full of praise for the old fire soup.
Eventually, everything was moved a little bit, and the rest was packed up for Grealish to take home.
As he was leaving, Grealish suddenly asked Jose: 'Brother, do you think I have a chance to join Chelsea?' ”
Feeling unwell, today can only be so much.
I also hope that all readers and friends will be in good health.
