Post-match wrap-up.

Manchester United had 67 per cent possession and contributed 12 shots on goal, only hitting the inside of the net twice.

Aside from the penalty kick, there weren't many chances for United to really threaten Jose.

It seems that there is a basis for the system not to let Jose use the plug-in.

As for Chelsea, they have been in an impressive form away from home, with 33 per cent possession and just eight shots on goal, as well as just three shots from inside the net.

In his post-match press conference, Jose Mourinho said he was very satisfied with a point at Manchester United's home stadium, considering that Manchester United had 67 per cent possession.

Mourinho's remarks made those journalists feel very uncomfortable.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn't Mourinho complain about the referee taking care of Manchester United?

After the match against Manchester United, the New Year arrived.

With January approaching, the winter transfer period for European football has officially begun.

Jose Mourinho's heart for John Stones, after Chelsea's offer reached £50 million, the Everton hierarchy finally nodded in agreement.

Chelsea got John Stones but also let go of Ramires in the winter window.

Tempted by a high salary, Ramirez decided to transfer to the Chinese League.

Chelsea can be said to be thundering and raining in this winter transfer window.

Once again, people wondered, did Abu plan to stop playing? After all, the big-eared cup he wanted most was already in his hands, and it can be said that the only thing he pursued was beautiful football.

While other leagues are on hiatus, the Premier League has ushered in a high-density schedule of two matches a week.

In addition to the Premier League, the FA Cup has also reached the third round.

According to the schedule, Chelsea will play five or six games in January.

On January 3, in the 20th round of the English Premier League, Chelsea played away against local rivals Crystal Palace.

John Stones made his first appearance for Chelsea and was very consistent with John Terry in centre-back.

From the start, Chelsea were the first to attack.

However, it was Palace who took the lead with the first shot on goal.

Macarthur passes the ball wide.

Zaha strikes a right-footed shot from the middle of the box.

As a result, the ball deflected off the left side of the goal.

In the 16th minute, Crystal Palace won a corner.

Pang Qiong took a corner kick and drove directly to the middle of the penalty area.

From 12 yards in front of goal, Delany received a pass from a team-mate and headed straight at goal.

The ball flies straight to the top left of the goal.

It's a pity that he couldn't escape José's ten fingers.

In the 23rd minute, Crystal Palace won a free kick opportunity in front.

Pang Qiong's free-kick is passed into the box.

It was Delaney who scored with a header.

It's just that he still can't escape Jose's ten fingers.

Chelsea were completely passive in the opening stages, and if it weren't for Jose's consistent performance, I am afraid that Palace would have taken a two-goal lead.

In the 29th minute, Chelsea scored.

Cesc Fabregas cut through the middle and the ball reached Costa.

On the right side of the penalty area, near the baseline, Costa passes back to goal.

Oscar slotted home.

Chelsea are 1-0 up away.

Oscar opened the door for Chelsea to victory.

In the 35th minute, Chelsea came close to doubling their lead

A long pass near the center circle of Oscar.

On the left side of the penalty area, Azpilicueta received a pass from Oscar and hit the goal with his left foot.

The ball flies straight to the bottom left of the goal.

Unfortunately, he was blocked by the opponent's goalkeeper.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Crystal Palace aggressively attacked.

In the 58th minute, Campbell passed the ball from the right side of the arc and sent it directly to the left side of the penalty area.

From 12 yards in front of goal, Zaha received a pass from a team-mate and fired a left-footed shot straight into goal.

The ball flies in the bottom right corner of the goal area.

José had been prepared for this.

He made a sideways pounce and easily confiscated Zaha's shot.

Jose takes a quick goal kick.

Chelsea had a quick counter-attack.

A few passes and the ball was already on the edge of the opposition's box.

Oscar took the ball and faced the Crystal Palace defenders, who chose to pass the ball to Willian next to him.

Willian took the ball and fired a powerful right-footed shot into the top right corner of the goal.

The Crystal Palace goalkeeper swooped in with all his might, but to no avail.

The goal went in, 2-0.

The die is cast.

The game continued, with Crystal Palace trailing by two goals and only trying to attack.

In the 66th minute, Chelsea had another chance to counter-attack.

Willian dribbled the ball into the right side of the box and shot from a tight angle.

The Crystal Palace goalkeeper went sideways to make a save, but the ball was not denied.

Costa picked up the leak in front of the goal.

Chelsea are 3-0 up away.

At this point, the game lost its suspense.

Crystal Palace then had chances to score, but they couldn't break Jose's ten-finger barrier.

In the end, Chelsea won 3-0 away.

The New Year is off to a good start.

José also successfully completed the system task.

A week later, on January 10, the third round of the FA Cup resumed.

Chelsea host lower-division side Scunthorpe.

Chelsea are all in the squad.

In the end, it was Costa's and Zike, who came on as a substitute, scored successively and eliminated the opponent 2-0.

Chelsea picked up their second win of the new year.

Jose's system rewards have finally reached 64 times.

Three days later, the 21st round of the Premier League continued.

Chelsea host West Bromwich Albion.

In this game, Eden Hazard continued to be injured, and Pedro played as a left winger.

As for the other positions, people can guess the specific list without having to announce it.

Chelsea's first-team squad has just 21 players this season, including the likes of Cheek and Atsu.

After the opening kick-off, West Brom took the initiative to retreat from the defence and took advantage of counter-attacking opportunities to threaten the Chelsea goal on a number of occasions.

It's a pity that they are facing José.

Thanks to Jose's prowess in action, West Brom had six shots on target, two of which were absolute chances to score, only to be unable to score a single goal.

Jose guarded the goal and left West Bromwich Albion's striker in despair.

Chelsea have Jose in charge at the back and can play freely in attack.

In the 20th minute, the Chelsea midfielder played a long ball into the pitch.

Costa chested the ball back to Willian.

Willian took the ball and distributed it to the right flank.

Near the baseline, Ivan passed the ball low to the back post.

Cesar Azpilicueta followed up with a shot from the back post.

The ball went in.

In the second half, Jose Mourinho made the first substitution, with Kenedy coming on in place of Pedro.

Chelsea continued to put pressure on the opposition goal.

In the 73rd minute, Willian won the ball on the right side.

Near the baseline, Willian sent a low ball to the front post.

Kennedy followed up with a shot.

As a result, the ball hit the opposing player and bounced into the near corner.

In the end, Chelsea won 2-0 at home to claim their third win of the new year.

Jose's quest reward has reached 128 times.

There wasn't much time to adjust, and the game went on.

On Saturday the 16th, in the 22nd round of the Premier League, Chelsea played Everton at home.

John Stones played his first game against his former club and he partnered John Terry in central defence.

As for the other positions, it is nothing more than the question of who will sit on the bench of Oscar, Cesc Fabregas, Matic and Mikel.

Chelsea's bench this season is the weakest of the 20 teams in the Premier League.

Chelsea kick-off first.

The first half was a goalless affair for either side.

Chelsea even had just one shot on goal.

Instead, it was Everton, who used quick counter-attacks to get into the Blues penalty area on a number of occasions.

It's just that most of their shots are off target.

In the 40th minute, Everton had another chance to shoot.

Baines played a long pass from the left and went straight to the middle of the box.

Mirallas took the ball and hit it with his right foot.

The ball flew past the Chelsea defence and into the bottom right corner of the goal.

Just as the Everton fans were about to celebrate, Jose flew in and saved the opponent's shot.

Avoid conceding first goal at home.

In the second half, Mourinho made the first substitution.

Oscar replaced Nemanja Matic and Jr. returned to the central midfield position.

Chelsea sounded the clarion call to attack.

In the 63rd minute, Xiao Fa's long pass went directly to the penalty area.

After shaking off the opposing defender, he passed to Cesc Fabregas in front of him.

The ball flies straight into the bottom left corner of the goal.

Everton goalkeeper Howard could only look at the ball and sigh.

Chelsea lead by two goals.

The die is cast?

However, it is not that simple.

In the 75th minute, Everton's attack.

Baines crosses from the left.

The ball was played straight into the middle of the six-yard box, just three yards from goal.

Jose is ready to make a sortie to intercept.

Terry got back into place first.

However, Terry's operation looked stupid to Jose.

I saw him kick the ball towards his door in a panic.

Even if Jose used the "time-lapse", it was too late to stop the ball.

2-1, Everton recovered a point.

In the 78th minute, Baines crossed from the left.

The ball went straight through the Chelsea defence and into the feet of Mirallas.

Mirallas stopped the ball and turned and volleyed the ball straight to the top right side of the goal.

During this process, not a single Chelsea player stepped forward to interfere.

If Jose's "god-level prediction" did not respond, he probably would not have expected such a scene, in which case, Everton would definitely score a goal.

Luckily, José had anticipated this.

I saw him calmly leap up and block the opponent's shot with one hand.

John Stones clears the ball out of the box just in time.

Chelsea escaped.

The game continues.

In the blink of an eye, it was the 90th minute.

Everton were awarded another corner from the right.

Corner kick taken.

Remy made it to the first drop point.

The ball was still at Everton's feet.

Deulofeu crosses from the right and the ball goes to the far post.

Three yards from goal, two Everton players were in place.

Murray scrambled to shoot and the ball flew straight into the top left corner of the goal.

It could be said that this will be another must-score opportunity.

"Time and space pause."

Jose didn't hesitate to use the only cheating opportunity of the game.

Relying on the time bought by the cheat, Jose unbelievably confiscated the opponent's shot.

There were eight minutes of stoppage time.

With a score of 2-1, it was difficult for Chelsea to win.

Everton continued to attack Chelsea.

Jose gave his best and didn't give the opposition a chance to score.

Last-minute stoppage time.

Chelsea take a boundary kick.

Xiaofa has a long pass to the penalty area.

Kurt Zouma, Ivan and Oscar headed in quick succession.

In the end, Oscar headed the ball 12 yards.

Facing the onrushing Everton goalkeeper, John Terry quickly followed up with a stab.

The ball rolls towards the bottom left corner of the goal.

The ball went in.

John Terry scored at the whistle to seal the win.

In the end, Chelsea won 3-1 against Everton to claim their fourth win of the new year.

Jose's quest reward has doubled again, reaching 256x.

After this campaign, Chelsea's players finally have eight days to adjust, and the next opponent will be city rivals Arsenal.
