After the awards ceremony that night, Li Ang and Mu Shuai were not in a hurry to return to London immediately.

With the next round of the Premier League not kicking off until a week away, Jose Mourinho has given all of his Chelsea first-team players two days off.

So after Leon finished dinner with Mendes and Ronaldo that night, he stayed directly in a local hotel in Zurich.

On the morning of the second day, after a rare sleep, Li Ang took a leisurely flight back to London with Ibu and Mu Shuai.

The Chelsea trio are now the stuff of the local London press, with Leon receiving an interview far beyond Ibrahimovic.

Even though Ibrahimovic is ranked higher than Leon in the annual Ballon d'Or, there is no doubt that the most popular football star in London right now is Leon.

In the words of the report published by the German newspaper Bild after the Golden Globe rankings were revealed, it is:

If last year's Leon had the same attacking tactics as he did in the Chelsea squad this year, his stats could rise even further to a single-season double fifteen.

In the ranking of the annual Golden Globe Awards, Leon is likely to rank fifth or even fourth!

And if you just look at the performance in the first half of this season, then Leon is already a well-deserved No. 1 attacking midfielder in the current football world......

As soon as the Bild report was published, it immediately sparked discussions among many fans in football.

Of course, there will be a lot of dissatisfaction among the fans, and if Bild says that Leon is the number one midfielder in football with a combination of attack and defence, then they may not have any opinion.

But Bild says Leon is the number one attacking midfielder in football at the moment. These fans are a little unconvinced.

may be because in the past games, Li Ang gave fans the impression that he was more defensive than offensive.

The vast majority of fans admit that Leon has a very good talent for growth, and he has been constantly refining his offensive arsenal.

But the stereotype is really difficult to be reversed by the fans in a short period of time.

Even if the facts are here, right in front of these fans.

But they still subconsciously judge Bild's reports according to their own preconceived impressions.

However, the Bild newspaper is also very strong, and in the face of many comments on the Internet, they just released Li Ang's current personal data.

Bild's official tweet left skeptical fans to find out for themselves which midfielder in football can surpass Leon's current tally of goals.

Hard-mouthed fans take a look, good guys!

By the time of the award ceremony, Leon had improved his season stats to 15 goals + 14 assists!

That's about to reach 30 goals a season!

After counting the rounds, this group of fans found that there is really no attacking midfielder who can compare with the current Leon in terms of personal data.

So the hard mouth turned into a living face slapping scene.

On the side of the British media, whether it is London or other big cities in England, the media are completely sought after and praised by Leon.

Premier League fans have no opinion on such a public opinion campaign, after all, those who have opinions have been kicked by Li Ang with excellent offensive and defensive play before.

It doesn't matter if they don't, the second half of the league has just begun, and the teams they support still have a chance to meet Chelsea and play again.

When the time comes, if Chelsea loses, Li Ang will naturally lie flat and ridicule in public opinion, but if Chelsea wins, then they dare to blow up the stab, but they will have to be besieged and ridiculed by other fans.

These off-pitch public opinion battles happen every year, and it's no surprise that Premier League coaches and stars don't take them too seriously.

At least in Mourinho's case, the storm is just a small matter for him.

When he returned to London, he immediately returned to his work.

And Li Ang, who has resumed the rhythm of training and preparation with his teammates, looked through the schedule during the medical examination and found that their opponent in the next round of the league is Manchester United.

Last season, the Chelsea squad was probably already talking about the game against Manchester United.

But this year, the veteran Chelsea squad didn't say anything about it, as if they were playing just a game against mid-table teams.

There is no nervous ideological consciousness to prepare for the red and blue battle.

Well, it's not just the Chelsea players in the squad who are not feeling nervous about United at all.

When it comes to pre-match publicity, the local media in London and Manchester are still doing their job.

However, they want to try to make this game as hot as possible, but to put it bluntly, the current showdown between Chelsea and Manchester United is essentially the first in the Premier League and seventh in the Premier League.

You just make a splash, and Manchester United can't return to the top overnight, back to the top three in the Premier League, and have a strong conversation with Chelsea.

Of course, Manchester United fans are still more inspirational, others say that they are now seventh in the Premier League, Manchester United fans like to add some prefixes.

"From the top 10 in the Premier League to Manchester United, who are seventh in the Premier League!"

Look, how inspiring.

You don't care if Manchester United fans are stubborn or not, just looking at this sentence, it is indeed difficult to break into the top 8 of the Premier League from outside the top 10 of the Premier League.

Directly from the middle and lower reaches to the ranks of the upper reaches of the league, there are still two short of entering the top queue of the league!

Looking at the record, the current Manchester United in the first 21 rounds of the Premier League, 11 wins, 4 draws, 6 losses and 37 points, ranked seventh in the Premier League, away from Liverpool, which is now the fourth in the Premier League, that is just a gap of two wins.

They were not pulled away by the fourth team, and United still have a lot of hope of fighting for the top four, which is better than Arsenal in previous years.

Isn't it true that Arsenal doesn't start to exert force until the second half of every season and rush to the top four.

Therefore, Manchester United fans are still relatively optimistic about the results, which is understandable, and there is a certain reason for being stubborn.

However, their head coach Moyes is now a group of pressures, and in the face of the team's senior management over and over again questions and rigid requirements, Lord Moyes really wants to directly pick on him.

Not to mention a group of veterans in the team, among the stars of the playing year, basically one Rooney can be used normally.

Van Persie had to rest for one or two games after playing two or three games, and the goal efficiency dropped significantly!

The team's goals are not guaranteed, and the club does not give transfer fees to bring in reinforcements in the winter window, so that I want to dig the potential from the team and promote a few young forwards from the second team to give it a try!

As for the so-called legacy of Ferguson, which Sandezi has always emphasized, Moyes even called himself a big fool!

Ashley Young, Valencia and Nani were absolute killers in the Premier League two seasons ago.

But now they are Manchester United's super fun people, when they play well and when they play badly, they can't even tell!

Every time Moyes arranges the starting line-up before the game, it's like opening a blind box!

Because he doesn't know which of the players who are scheduled to play on the side today, which one can play better, and which one will not lag behind.

And Cleverley and Anderson made Moyes even worse.

David Moyes has led the team to 20 league games, and now I just want to ask Ferguson how he used this group to win the Premier League title last season.

Even if Moyes is given a Van Persie, who was relatively healthy last season, Moyes does not dare to guarantee that he can lead Manchester United to the top four.

From the high spirits of the summer to the current emaciated and gray-haired, Moyes has only been at Manchester United for just over half a year.

With Chelsea on the horizon, Moyes would love to put a superbus at Stamford Bridge and keep it for a draw.

However, Manchester United's top management is blind to command, and Sandezi has told him to play Manchester United-style football at Chelsea's home stadium.

When Moyes heard this, he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage.

Manchester United style?

Now that I can play and get into the top six, I have to burn high incense, what kind of Manchester United style are you talking about for me?

I want money for my grades!

I've told you, most of the young players left behind by Lord Ferguson can't be used, you don't believe it, you can say anything when you ask for money, there is Ferguson's legacy!

This shows that you don't want to invest money, but you have to make results!

Moyes only felt wronged, but now that the thief ship is on board, and being able to coach the Premier League's No. 1 giants is indeed the best opportunity Moyes has ever encountered since he became a professional coach.

He didn't want to miss out on this trip to the big club, so even if he felt very unreliable, Moyes still racked his brains to lead the team to prepare for the game, and according to Sandezi, he developed a set of tactics that are very "Manchester United style".

Rooney is a person who understands, after all, he has played 20 games before, and now he knows what his teammates are.

Before the Chelsea game, Wayne Rooney took the opportunity to speak with Mitokuko, apparently to help his old mentor David Moyes relieve some of the pressure.

However, the end result of the conversation was not very pleasant.

Rooney looked very unhappy when he finally left Santoko's office, and the atmosphere in the United squad was affected by the rumours.

Of course, none of this is known to Manchester United fans.

Compared to the disappointment that has accumulated in the following years, for the group of Red Devils fans who have no hope at all for Manchester United's strange management.

Manchester United fans now have high expectations for the future of the team.

On 19 January, enthusiastic Manchester United fans travelled to London with the team, and even when playing away from home, the fighting power of Manchester United fans should not be underestimated.

During the pre-match warm-up between the two teams, the Manchester United fans in the stands cheered the morale of the Manchester United players with their neat and high-pitched singing.

However, on Chelsea's side, from the fans to the players, there is no doubt about the victory.

Jose Mourinho even laid out a detailed tactical plan for how Chelsea would respond if David Moyes chose to stick to the bus.

Various sports media in London have also analyzed that Manchester United will take the initiative to take the defensive position to deal with Chelsea's strong attack.

But when the game officially began, Manchester United shocked the jaws of countless media reporters with a proactive forward attack!

"Is Moyes crazy?"

Countless journalists and neutral Premier League fans alike have such a thought on their minds.

No, they don't understand at all, why would Manchester United dare?

In the home stadium of Chelsea, they dare to take the initiative to play against each other, they not only look down on Chelsea's current Premier League first ranking, but also look down on Mourinho's home win rate!

However, Mourinho is not half ashamed of being offended.

On the contrary, he was very happy~

It's really dozing, and someone will send a pillow to it.

He was still pondering how to break down the door of Manchester United more easily, but Moyes took the initiative to weaken the defence.

The Chelsea players, after being a little surprised, quickly followed Mourinho's tactical plan to signal them to press back.

Leon and Nemanja Matic took the initiative to press forward, and the two launched a sweeping strangulation at the top of the center circle arc of their own half, and they fought for the ball with Manchester United!

With Januzai's small body, he can only fall on the turf as soon as he fights against Leon.

Ashley Young and Valencia, who started as Manchester United's left and right wing-backs today, could only helplessly move closer to the middle to assist Carrick with the ball.

But it was a no-brainer for the two to face off against Nemanja Matic and Lyon, not to mention the defensive involvement of Chelsea's wide players.

In order to further strengthen the defensive hardness in the middle of the midfield and protect Carrick, Moyes chose to start Phil Jones in the central midfield today.

But in this way, the pressure on Carrick's organization has increased a lot.

After all, Phil Jones didn't have a way to help him share too much of the burden of balling, and Januzaj was directly taken by Leang.

In terms of organisation, United are basically supported by a Carrick, so how can he compete with the combination of Leon and Lampard?

In less than 5 minutes after the opening attack, Manchester United was pressed back by Chelsea, and the scene was really miserable, and there was no midfield strength to compete at all!

And Leon was able to make Carrick tired on the offensive end after easily getting Januzaj off the defensive end.

Ibrahimovic was clubbed in the United penalty area today and engaged in a one-on-one clash with Nemanja Vidic.

His defensive containment ability is very strong.

After much of Vidic's and Evans' defensive energy was put on Ibrahimovic, Leon teamed up with Eden Hazard to cause trouble in the ribs of the United half.

In the thirteenth minute of the first half, Li Ang forced a cut in from the middle, and then went straight into the rib space outside the left side of the Manchester United penalty area, helping Hazard to cut into the Manchester United penalty area!

Evans couldn't make up the defence in time, allowing Hazard to calmly pick up and shoot in the area he does best.

It was a shot that was so fast that De Gea was caught off guard!

Chelsea, who took an early lead in the first half, were not about to let United go.

Originally, Chelsea were ready to let Manchester United lose with dignity today, but they are also old rivals.

If United are willing to put down their form and defend hard, then Chelsea might just score a goal or two.

But today, Manchester United took the initiative to attack as soon as they came out, which was completely not to give Chelsea face.

You know, this is a game at Chelsea's home stadium, and Manchester United's behavior is tantamount to pulling out the tiger's whiskers!

Since Manchester United doesn't want decency.

Then Chelsea will only be able to help the old opponent with dignity once!

"Go on the offensive! Go on the offensive! ”
