0208 Community Shield1

In the tunnel at Wembley Stadium, two former Chelsea players from Leeds United are chatting with Chelsea players.

Scott Parker joined in January '04 and left after a season and a half at Chelsea to move to Leeds United on the recommendation of Leeds United's current chief scout. Now he's chatting with Glen Johnson, one of the few players he knows in this Chelsea squad and the rest of the Chelsea players he knows have either left or didn't start today.

Robben, who had just joined Leeds United, was different, he took the initiative to find Mourinho and talk to him.

"Coach, why didn't you get on the main force today?"

Mourinho, who was chatting with George Lee, was interrupted by Robben's work and turned back to look at Robben.

"Oh, Arjan~" Mourinho took the initiative to hug Robben, and then explained to him, "The main thing is to test the new players, you have to be a little lighter today." ”

"That's not going to work, our boss has given me an order, we have to get one."

After speaking, Robben also looked at George Lee on the side.

Lee, on the other hand, spread his hands towards Mourinho.

In fact, in the chat just now, George Lee had already heard Mourinho's words expressing the idea of wanting to leave Chelsea. It's just that he didn't say it directly, but said that he was tired of the power struggle at the club, and he didn't want to be an obedient manager, in which case he wouldn't be Jose Mourinho.

Afran Grant, an Israeli, has just been appointed by Abou as the team's head of football, but he was able to sit in the dugout behind Jose Mourinho today.

It really made George Lee feel incredible.

As soon as the game began, Leeds United were consistent with their usual line of thinking, starting to pass the ball at the back, gradually pushing the defence forward and compressing Chelsea's defensive formation.

Pizarro, a new signing who started Chelsea today, stopped trying after two failed tackles on Leeds United and slowly retreated into his own half.

As he retreated, Pizarro also looked at his team-mates on the left and right, Malouda, who was also a new signing, and Kalou, who was playing as a right winger today. Neither man had any idea of keeping up with the Leeds United centre-backs and just stood in their respective positions.

The ball was passed between Leeds United's centre-backs, full-backs, midfielders and finally to the feet of right-wing-back James Milner.

Milner found his chance and a long ball was diverted to the left.

Today, Baines on the left did not cut forward, and the ball was passed to Smith who retreated.

Smith used his chest to stop the ball and began to observe the situation on the court.

Barry, after confirming that Parker wasn't moving forward, began to move towards Smith, ready to pick up.

Kuyt, on the other hand, walked from inside the box to outside the box, ready to take Carvalho, who defended him.

Opportunity!

Smith had seen Kuyt run in from the box to the box after he had dragged Carvalho away.

Smith saw that the new No. 8 was on the way. Because if that kind of opportunity were given to Smith, Smith would certainly do the same.

Flicked the ball with his right foot, then took advantage of the fact that Glen Johnson had not yet defended and went straight into the Chelsea penalty area.

Because he was afraid of Cech's attack, Smith's pass was not strong, and he aimed at the front point.

In the box, Sneijder was about to run close to the spot, and when he saw another Chelsea centre-back, Benheim, come to the defence, he pondered whether to head the ball himself or play it to his team-mates.

Just when he hesitated, before he could make a final decision, the ball had already flown in.

Sneijder didn't think much about it, jumped up and shook his head, ready to head towards the goal.

It's just that the ball is too positive, and Sneijder was interfered with by Benheim when he was on top, and finally was held firmly by Cech in front of goal.

However, the first goal after the opening still made the Leeds United audience at the scene give a standing ovation.

"The ability to insert forward is still not comparable to Smith." Brian Kidd saw Sneijder's forward insertion and commented.

"At least he has the awareness, he has 10 times and 9 failures, but he can succeed 1 time. And if you look at his 170 cm and 70 kg body, doesn't it mean that he is not afraid of the confrontation of the Premier League? George Lee was very satisfied with Sneijder's move just now.

Sneijder also immediately got up from the ground, gave Smith a thumbs up and began to defend back. He's not the kind of striker who holds the ball, doesn't stick to the ball when attacking, passes the ball quickly to his teammates, gets rid of it, and shoots from a distance. When defending, he is also willing to take the initiative to defend, rather than standing and watching like a classical midfielder, waiting for his teammates to cut off the ball and pass it to him.

"Take the initiative to find the ball yourself, or grab the ball yourself, so that you can launch a counterattack faster. After getting rid of it properly, pass the ball to a teammate in a better position and then run it yourself. ”

This sentence was told to Sneijder by the side of George Lee during his first training session after Sneijder joined Leeds United.

Sneijder also understands that George Lee wants to train him to be the organizational core of Leeds United, but not the organizational core like Zidane and Riquelme in the past. Although he understood, in less than two months of intensive training and joint training, he had only mastered a little bit of the doorway.

But just that little bit of the door is enough for Chelsea today.

In the 21st minute of the game, Chelsea's pass was cut off by Leeds United's Woodgate when attacking because of the lack of tacit understanding among several people in the front.

Pisa Roma counter-attacked on the spot, but Leeds United passed the ball back to Schmeichel Jr., who started today.

Pizarro went to snatch Schmeichel's ball again, and at the same time observed that his team-mate Malouda was also on the top, and had already watched Leeds United's right-back Milner, blocking Schmeichel's path to the right.

Kalou, on the left, also came up and came between Mathieson and Baines, one of them staring at the two men. Frank Lampard and Joe Cole also stepped forward to get close to Leeds' back two.

It seems that Leeds United's exit routes at the back are blocked, but in fact, the pressure of their front court is simply pediatric for Leeds United.

Schmeichel Jr. first passed the ball back to Woodgate in front of Pizarro, and then quickly moved to an empty position when his opponent turned, and received Woodgate's pass again.

At this time, Pizarro no longer had the desire to grab the ball, and was completely being walked like some kind of animal.

It was Kalou who came to scramble Schmeichel Jr.

It's just because of this that Mattheon's place is vacant.

Schmeichel Jr. showed good passing skills, passing the ball directly to a few positions in front of Mathieson, allowing Mathieson to dribble directly into the ball.

Because Frank Lampard and Joe Cole were brought to the back by Barry and Parker respectively, all Mathieson was able to play forward calmly.

It was finally after Essien was on Parker's side that Joe Cole was freed up to defend Mattieson, otherwise the Dutch defender might have been alone with the ball in the Chelsea half.

It's just that Joe Cole's defensive ability is really not flattering, and Mathieson leans on it directly, and Joe Cole has no way to grab the ball.

Seeing that he was about to be killed by a centre-back on the ball in his own half, everyone here at Chelsea began to chase back, trying to get the ball back.

Mattheeson knew that he couldn't get the ball anymore, and if he dribbled the ball again, he probably had an accident, so he began to look for his teammates.

"Here!"

Mattheison heard a kind Dutch remark and passed the ball in the direction of the sound without even thinking about it, after all, there were no Dutchmen at Chelsea today.

By this time, Sneijder had sneaked to the left.

Smith's forward cut forced Johnson to step back, exposing a large gap behind Smith.

Therefore, after receiving a pass from Mathieson, Sneijder was completely undefended when he advanced with the ball.

4 to 5 in the frontcourt.

Smith, Kuyt and Arjen Robben slotted forward in front of Sneijder, while Leeds' No.8 was pushing diagonally down the middle from the left.

Here at Chelsea, all four of the defenders are on the back, and Essien in the midfield position is always running diagonally from the left side of his team to make up for Sneijder.

Just as the front three of Leeds were about to arrive in front of the Chelsea penalty area, Sneijder, who had been pushing, passed the ball.

A diagonal line to the front right, which appears to have been passed to Kuyt.

But Kuyt ignored the ball and chose to concede it because he knew it wasn't passed to him.

Behind him on the right, Arjen Robben got ahead of Ashley Cole, took a left-footed lead and then jumped up to avoid Cole's tackle.

Then facing Benheim, who was the only one left after Kuyt had already involved Carvalho, Robben needed to complete the task given to him by George Lee.

"Why do you let you play on the right side, I just want all opponents to know that you Robben wants to cut inside, but I just can't prevent it."

Continuous broken steps, interspersed with what appears to be a shot and a change of direction.

Benheim didn't understand Robben, or carelessly chose to stretch his feet.

The rest was even simpler, Robben flicked his left foot again, and this time he could make the ball a little bigger. Because then he's really going to shoot, it's not a feint.

Knowing that his former teammate was very powerful, Cech moved early, and guessed that Robben was going to take advantage of the situation with the inside of his left foot to arc into the far corner, and began to move a step to the right.

Who would have thought that this time Robben chose the near angle.

The ball wasn't fast, but it was tricky, and Cech didn't have time to change his centre. I could only watch the football roll into the goal against the near post.

1 to 0.

Robben ran past the Chelsea dugout with a finger after the goal, he didn't want to off Mourinho, he just wanted to show the Chelsea hierarchy.

Arjan Robben who you don't want is scoring a goal, it's a Chelsea goal.
