Romelu Lukaku, who scored another goal in the Champions League, is currently a superstar who has become famous in Europe.

Regardless of whether the opponent's hard power is strong or weak, Lukaku can score three goals in five Champions League group stages as a rotation.

That's the "rising star" of European football!

Lukaku's position is a bit blurry at the moment, but it doesn't matter.

On the contrary, his ability to play on the side is quite in line with the requirements of modern football for forwards.

Just like Alvaro Morata who shone across Europe last season.

Temporary technical deficiencies do not become shortcomings in them.

After all, in the exaggerated propaganda of the media, there will be no detailed and professional analysis of their technical shortcomings.

With the blessing of age and data, many fans of impression stream will soon build a perfect new star image in their minds for them that overflows with talent and talent.

The development of the star path of the two on the original timeline is indeed the same.

For many fans who haven't watched their performances closely, the data is very important.

Therefore, in the case that the two did not really play the corresponding value, they have become a super sweetheart worth nearly 100 million in the transfer market.

However, the current Morata and Lukaku are obviously more fortunate when the development line has been changed by the "butterfly" of Leon.

First of all, Morata.

Under Mourinho's commission, even if he leaves, Zinedine Zidane, who was previously the technical director of the Real Madrid first team and is now officially the assistant coach of the Real Madrid first team, urged him to improve the technical deficiencies of the goal.

Compared to when he officially entered the Real Madrid team, Morata's current shooting skills, at least right-footed shooting, are much better.

If he continues to grow normally, even if he can't compete with Benzema in the future, he won't be able to play as a starting center forward in the Real Madrid first team.

Morata will also develop better than he did on his own in the original timeline.

After all, improving a lot of shooting skills and gaining more game experience has become a valuable asset in his career.

A few days ago, Leon told Lukaku that Morata is still double-footed, and he is more of a joke about his little brother Castilla.

And when it comes to Lukaku, this kid is even more lucky now.

Not to mention the more patient and tolerant Mourinho training, and Leon took him to do targeted technical strengthening training.

Without forcibly gaining weight and losing his body's flexibility and speed, his future prospects in football are naturally broader.

Now that he is staring at Leon every day to do meticulous and tedious technical adjustment training, Lukaku is a little tired.

But after three or five years, he will only be grateful for today's Leon who is willing to take the time and patience to allow him to grow more at a young age.

It was Leon and Mourinho who jointly demanded that he must use his right foot to complete the shot in the daily training confrontation, which made Lukaku want to cry without tears.

But as the training time of the small week passed, the results were also there.

At least now when Lukaku pushes with his right foot, there will be no more uneven power, resulting in a direct outrageous shot from the football.

This progress has been slow, but the Chelsea coaching staff has not demanded much of Lukaku.

This season, first ensure that the backfoot push in the penalty area is stable and hit within the goal frame, and the strength and accuracy are not required.

Wait until next season to let him practice the accuracy of his right-footed shot.

After all, Lukaku is also young. After growing up to the age of 23 step by step, you can train your right foot to the point where you can reliably push in the penalty area.

After a week of rest, Chelsea's main players are also challenged for the 13th round of the Premier League.

Chelsea will play Southampton at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League.

This match is also the most watched strong conversation in the thirteenth round of the Premier League.

Originally, according to common sense, the game between Tottenham and Manchester United should be more hot.

Unfortunately, Manchester United is currently in ninth place in the Premier League, and Tottenham has fallen from the top four in the Premier League at the beginning of the season to fifth in the Premier League.

This Premier League ninth and fifth game can't be compared to the battle of the top four teams in any case.

And speaking of which, Southampton's current fourth place in the Premier League really doesn't have much moisture.

Winning back-to-back games against Liverpool and Manchester United, they also stubbornly drew with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in the last round of the league.

Even if Manchester United is excluded, Southampton is currently against two teams in the top six of the Premier League, and the record still has the upper hand.

The Southampton youth team led by Pochettino has already amazed countless Premier League fans!

Holding high the banner of attacking football, Southampton, whose average age is also the youngest in the Premier League, is gaining momentum.

However, in the pre-match press conference, Southampton's young coach Pochettino was very humble.

Now they are more of a young challenger than a rival to Chelsea.

'I have a good relationship with Jose, we've played against each other a lot in La Liga and I've learned a lot from him.

Of course, I haven't led the team to win against him so far.

Tomorrow's game will be difficult, of course, so we have to be mentally prepared and it's always exciting to play against the top teams.

In any case, we are a young challenger and we hope to bring a good matchup to more fans tomorrow......"

Pochettino's emotionally intelligent remarks made the match – at least pre-match – not much of a gunpowder.

Mourinho also has a high opinion of Pochettino, an "old acquaintance" from his time in La Liga.

It's not that Mourinho is saying nice things about Pochettino because of the respect he has for him.

After the first two meetings in La Liga, Mourinho was very optimistic about Pochettino, who was in charge of Espanyol at the time.

After all, without two brushes, Pochettino, who was not yet 40 years old at the time, would not have led the Spaniard, who had not invested much, to eighth place in La Liga at the end of the 10-11 season.

So Mourinho was telling the truth before the game.

He does fancy Mauricio Pochettino and does see Southampton as Chelsea's first-tier rivals in the league.

On the day of the game, when the starting line-ups of both teams were announced.

Mourinho and Pochettino, who got the news, both smiled when they saw the opponent's starting arrangement.

The same 4231 starting formation, the same advocating offensive and defensive balance.

Both men also made accurate tactical predictions for each other before the game.

However, with the same 4231 starting line-up, Chelsea look to be the more defensive-minded side, while Southampton are more attack-oriented.

On the evening of December 1, Huaguo fans watched the two early Premier League games that started at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. Huaguo time.

Tottenham's 2-2 draw with Manchester United was not spectacular, while Hull City's 3-1 upset win over Liverpool was more exciting.

However, after eating two Premier League "appetizers", the most anticipated by domestic fans is, of course, the Premier League focus match between Chelsea and Southampton that will start at 0:10 on December 2.

This viewing time is not as good as the eighth and tenth nights, but compared with the start time of Serie A, La Liga and the Champions League, it is already very friendly to Chinese fans.

Sina Sports also specially invited General Fan and Zhan Jun to partner with Zhan Jun today to explain this strong dialogue in the Premier League.

General Fan is the second guest of Sina Sports to comment on Chelsea's game this season, and after the live broadcast started, he became familiar with Zhan Jun.

If you want to say that the domestic Premier League is more concerned and knows more about the famous games, then General Fan must be regarded as one of the best.

At the beginning of today's live broadcast, General Fan tried his best to talk about the fact that he almost joined Liverpool back then.

So it didn't take long to chat, and General Fan naturally talked about Liverpool's upset defeat just now.

Zhan Jun naturally could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly, and General Fan, who was successful in the whole life, quickly diverted the topic, and countless domestic fans in front of the computer and mobile phone were so happy.

At this time, the live broadcast screen happened to be the time node when the players of the two teams lined up with the referee.

So Zhan Jun also quickly took over the conversation, and with the appearance of the player list in the live broadcast screen, he introduced the starting situation of the two teams today.

'Chelsea were at home today in their usual 4231 starting line-up

Starting goalkeeper Petr Cech.

At the back, Bertrand, John Terry, David Luiz and Cesar Azpilicueta lined up.

Nemanja Matic and Frank Lampard played in the back line, while Leon played up front, with Eden Hazard and Ramires on the left and right wings.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic burst forward and played as a starting centre-forward. ”

"Southampton, for their part, also used a 4231 starting formation.

The starting goalkeeper was Poland international Boruc.

The starters at the back were Luke Shaw, Dejan Lovren, Jose Fonte and Chambers.

In midfield, Sneidlin and Wanyama were paired in a back two, with Lallana up front and Jay Rodriguez and Ward-Prowse flanking Lallana.

Osvaldo played as the starting centre-forward. ”

"Compared to the previous league, both teams have made changes to the starting personnel in the front court today.

Chelsea, on their side, replaced Kevin De Bruyne with Ramires, who is not yet fully injured, while Southampton replaced former starting centre-forward Lambert with Osvaldo. ”

"Yes, although there were rumours before the game that De Bruyne had begun to return to training with the team, Mourinho did not bring him with him in this game to be on the safe side.

Could Osvaldo's start be due to Lambert's previous thigh muscle strain?

Otherwise, with Osvaldo in his current form, Pochettino has no reason to continue to start with him..."

With the exchange and analysis of the two, the referee on duty pinched his watch and soon blew the whistle for the start of the game on time!

Chelsea, who had the right to kick off, slowly spread out the formation and pressed towards Southampton under the command of Leon's gestures after controlling the ball.

Li Ang looked at the familiar faces on the other side, who were still slightly immature, and he didn't feel embarrassed to bully these young players.

In the offensive process of advancing with the ball, he directly used his physical fitness to run past Lallana first, and then quickly distributed the ball to his left front under the defensive pressure of Wanyama.

Chelsea's opening attacking probing was again led by Eden Hazard.

However, Southampton seemed to have expected it, and the aggressively retreating Ward Prowse and Chambers combined with Chambers to carry out a resolute defensive cover against Hazard.

Hazard, who failed to pick the ball out in a hurry, lost possession, but Chelsea were unfazed by Southampton's swift counter-attack.

After Wanyama received the ball and made a big slash shift, Luke Shaw, who stopped the ball, faced Azpilicueta, who had already eyed him.

Luke Shaw, a newborn calf who has played well in the previous ten Premier League games, is very brave and decisive in choosing to be strong!

But Azpilicueta taught the young Luke Shaw a lesson with a solid head-on confrontation.

In the first offensive and defensive battle at the beginning of the game, both teams have already experienced the full tactical preparation of their opponents.

Pochettino looked at the two young full-backs who started Chelsea today, and also turned his head thoughtfully to look at Mourinho, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai next door.

At the moment, Southampton's attacking responsibilities on both flanks are not on the two wing-backs, but on the two young full-backs.

Luke Shaw and Chambers, who possess excellent technical and propulsive ability, are currently the killer of Southampton's attacking flanks.

The wing-backs with adduction in front of them make room for them to cut forward and provide tactical cover.

Two midfielders wiped their butts and strengthened their wide defence.

Without much pressure to return, the two young wing-backs often only need to calmly push down after the opposition full-backs have been taken away by their own full-backs, and then deliver threatening passes.

Southampton have also relied on this attacking model to win many times in the previous Premier League.

But now it seems that Mourinho has studied their attacking tactics very thoroughly.

And Chelsea also have enough individual defence to deal with Southampton's wolf pack tactics.

Southampton's two full-backs naturally had Nemanja Matic and Frank Lampard to deal with.

Not to mention Lallana, in the case of Leon actively returning to the defense in the opening stage, Lallana, who is opposite him, should not want to have too much room to play.

Jose Mourinho started today with younger Bertrand and Cesar Azpilicueta in place of Ashley Cole and Branislav Ivanovic.

It's all about pinching down the two young full-backs at Southampton!

It's a set of interlocking defensive set-ups.

Jose Mourinho even sacrificed possession and initiative at the start of the game to contain Southampton's best way of cutting forward on the wings.

Pochettino also had to believe that everything Mourinho said before the game was true.

Looking at Luke Shaw, who had been forced back by Azpilicueta twice in a row with pressing defense, Pochettino subconsciously pinched the knuckles of both fingers.

And in the stadium at this moment, after Leon received a cross pass from Azpilicueta, he once again broke away from Lallana's defensive interference, and immediately stepped forward to the middle line!

Luke Shaw, who had lost the attack before, quickly retracted and ran to Leon.

But just as he used his speed advantage to gradually chase back to Li Ang's side, and collided with him hard, it was himself who was bounced out of position!

Seeing this, Snyderlin couldn't take care of the other Chelsea attacking players, so he could only grit his teeth and abandon his defensive area, and pressed Li Ang violently!

Leon was waiting for the moment when Schneiderlin lost his defensive position!

Schneiderlin had only run two steps before Leon sent a diagonal ball over the top and went straight to Ramirez, who was pulling the edge down.

At this moment, Ibrahimovic has completed the forward insertion, Ramirez did not hesitate, and decisively swept the front point of the Southampton penalty area!

Lovren and Fonte's bag on Ibrahimovic has caused chaos in the Southampton penalty area!

But in the end, Ibrahimovic still relied on the advantage of his long legs to complete the stab first!

Poland's international Boruc is very focused at the moment.

He quickly went down to the ground and stretched out his feet, and blocked Ibrahimovic's shot to Kankan out of the bottom line!

The fans at Stamford Bridge were amazed!

After waving his hand with a little pity, Li Ang also actively inserted into the Southampton penalty area, preparing for this corner kick opportunity.

His excitement and eagerness to try it out has left the likes of Lallana, Luke Shaw and Chambers in the hearts of Southampton's young talents.

This reminded them of a legend about Leon that had been circulating in football before.

"Leon likes to play against the so-called young talents in football, try their quality.

Now those new stars in football, one counts as one, and it is difficult to play well against Li Ang.

I don't believe you look at the video of the match between Leon and Isco, Griezmann, and Gotze......"

Thinking of this, both Lallana and Luke Shaw couldn't help but have bad thoughts in their hearts.

Is it their turn to be tested today?
