Chapter 247: Five rounds of no victory

If it were an ordinary goalkeeper, Arnautovic's shot would probably score a goal.

It's a pity that he met José.

I saw Jose make a pounce and block the ball with one hand.

It was Stoke's second shot inside the goal of the game and the last shot inside the goal.

In this game, Jose was not tested too much.

However, as time went on, he became anxious.

Because the task of the system is to achieve victory.

In the frustration of Chelsea fans, the game ended up being 0-0.

Jose naturally failed to complete the system task, and the basic points that he had finally saved up returned to 1000 again.

Chelsea had 64 per cent possession and had 19 shots on goal, but only four shots were on target.

After the game, the chat room finally came alive.

"The whole game can be said to have no tactics, and it is completely dependent on one-man combat."

"That's right, in this game, Hazard has just added a breakthrough, and the passing coordination is still scum."

'Eden Hazard's error rate was so high, it was like he had just formed a team, and a few shots were completely wasted.

"If it weren't for the poor skills of the potters, we might have lost more than three in this game."

"It's not enough to lose three, Jose's daddy is in the back, it's still very stable."

"Fortunately, Abu forcibly recalled Jose, otherwise the broken car would have been waiting for degrading."

Most of Chelsea's players don't seem to care about the lack of a win in this game, and Chelsea are still very high on the points.

Surprisingly, however, Chelsea went winless in the next few league games.

First of all, the home game with Norwich City was again tied 0-0.

Costa did score a goal in the second half, but it was blown away by the referee because he was fouled by a foul on his hand when he was scrambling for the ball.

The decision was unanimously applauded by all but the Chelsea fans.

Costa's small actions on the field completely angered the others.

In the 14th round, Chelsea faced local rivals Tottenham Hotspur away.

As a result, the two sides were tied again, and Mourinho's tactics were finally questioned by the majority of fans.

Although Mourinho listened to Jose's advice halfway and changed the formation, he returned to the unchanged 4231 soon after, which also made the outside world question whether Mourinho is old.

Indeed, as fans questioned, Mourinho's 4231 has long been studied by other teams, so they have 10,000 ways to deal with Mourinho.

After the match against Tottenham, December is coming.

In December's first game, Chelsea host Bournemouth.

This game, if not Jose played.

Chelsea should have lost at home.

In the end, Jose managed to keep the goal and won another draw.

So far, Chelsea are winless in five league games.

Before you know it, Leicester City has jumped to the top of the table.

If Chelsea hadn't beaten Maccabi and Porto in the Champions League during this period, Mourinho would most likely have been sacked by Abou.

On December 14, the 16th round of the Premier League continued.

Chelsea have a crucial game in their hands.

According to the schedule, Chelsea will travel to Leicester City at the top of the table.

Unbeknownst to Jose, in another world, it was Mourinho's last game at Chelsea.

Of course, there is no Jose in that world.

Courtois finally returned, but he didn't help Mourinho to victory, and he was named the worst player of the game along with Costa.

Before the game, Jose had planned to talk to Mourinho again, but in the end he held back.

As a player, it's definitely not the right thing to do to always interfere with the manager's tactical arrangements.

As a result, as expected by Jose, Mourinho once again lined up his ancestral 4231 formation, which he considered to be the strongest at the moment.

Jose continues to be the starting goalkeeper, which is something that does not need to be considered at all.

In 15 rounds, only 4 goals were conceded, and this is the strength of Jose's contribution.

At the back, John Terry partnered Kurt Zouma in central defence, with Jose Mourinho genuinely planning to develop Kurt Zouma into the next Terry.

As for the two full-backs.

The left-wing-back position was handed to Cesar Azpilicueta and Baba Rahman proved to be a difficult man.

On the other side, it was handed to Branislav Ivanovic, who has not played in the past few rounds and does not know how he will perform when he returns to the starting line-up.

Nemanja Matic and Ramirez are paired in a double midfield, both of whom have some defensive ability but are not pure defensive players, and it is debatable whether this combination is reasonable.

In attack, Eden Hazard, Oscar and Willian were the three starters.

It was no surprise that Willian was given the chance to start, given that he is the only player in the Chelsea squad other than Jose who can be absolutely trusted.

Hazard's other start was also a surprise, and although he is no longer desperate, his talent is there, and he can contain some of the opposition defence as long as he is on the pitch.

Oscar, on the other hand, is a little slim and much inferior compared to the past two years, and as a striker who once squeezed out De Bruyne and Mata, his performance can only be described as a failure.

As for the center forward position, only Diego Costa can be used.

Although some of Costa's behavior on the field is extremely disgraceful, his strength is still very strong.

In addition, there are Pedro, Cesc Fabregas, and Remy on the bench.

Leicester City.

This season, Leicester City have shown incredible strength under the adjustment of "tinkerer" Ranieri.

No one would have imagined that after 15 rounds, Leicester City would be ranked first.

In this game, Ranieri put on the traditional 442 formation, and it has always been his tactical philosophy to defend and counterattack.

The specific starting list is as follows.

Goalkeeper: Kasper Schmeichel.

Defenders: Fuchs, Hoot, Morgan, Danny Simpson.

Midfielders: Albrighton, Kante, Drinkwater, Mahrez.

Forwards: Ulloa, Jamie Vardy.

In addition, on the bench, there are Andy King, Inle, and Shinji Okazaki and others.

In particular, the referee of this match was Clattenburg.

As we head into December, the weather in the UK starts to get wet and cold.

At some point, a slight rain suddenly fell in the sky, and the temperature dropped to 9~10 degrees.

When Jose stepped onto the pitch, the system released a new mission again.

[New Mission: Help your team win without using "Time and Space Pause" no more than 2 times, and reward double your points.] Your current base score is 2000 points. 】

Jose has failed to complete the system task in three league games due to the team's lack of strength, and if it weren't for the Champions League group stage win against Porto in midweek, the base points should still be 1,000.

So, for this system mission, Jose didn't care too much.
