Chapter 429 The opening game of the new season Romano: Here We Go! Umtiti transfers to Chelsea for a transfer fee of 2400 million euros + 300 million euros in floating ，距离17-18赛季切尔西和热刺的足总杯比赛还有1个半小时的时间，江远正在温布利大球场的更衣室接受记者采访。 Chelsea's match against Tottenham brings its own traffic, and Jiang Yuan has just topped the German transfer list with a transfer fee of million euros, so today's press conference room was almost filled with this group of reporters. Click! Click, click, click! "woww!" "Clap clap clap clap!" Clap clap clap! This group of British reporters finally showed their gentlemanly side. After Jiang Yuan entered the venue, they did not rush to ask questions, but instead gave Jiang Yuan applause first. It has been a long time since a Premier League player topped the transfer market. Jiang Yuan's million not only made history, but also increased the overall influence of the Premier League. He can be said to be a great contributor to England. "thanks, thanks!"
Jiang Yuan nodded gently, and pulled out a chair under the gaze of the reporters. After sitting down, he adjusted the standing microphone on the table: "Thank you for your support, thank you very much. The reporter in the third row wearing a blue suit, yes, that's you, um..." The reporter stood up and took a quick glance at the note before asking, "Jiang, at the age of 19, how does it feel to be worth more than both Messi and Ronaldo?" "I will treat this matter as calmly as possible. Just last month, Neymar transferred to Paris for million euros. I knew about this, so I know that my first place is only temporary. After the data of Ligue is updated, I will return to the second place." "But no one has ever reached the level you have at the age of 19." "I know, I know, but... the fact is that I have the advantage of age. If I were a 25 or 26-year-old player now, I might not have such an exaggerated value." Jiang Yuan was telling the truth. Potential accounts for a large part of Transfermarkt's transfer value, which is why the value of many talented players in the Portuguese Super League and Brazilian League is particularly outrageous. For players over 23 years old, your market value reflects your current value, but for players under 23 years old, your market value is partly your current value and partly your potential value in the future. Jiang Yuan's performance in the league and Champions League last season was not as good as Ronaldo's, but his value is 4000 million euros higher than Ronaldo. This is a reflection of his age advantage. "So Jiang, you think you have the advantage of age, but I need to remind you of one thing." "what?" "Five years from now you will only be 5 years old..." "..." Cough! Jiang Yuan coughed twice, his expression a little awkward, but with so many reporters on the scene, he quickly adjusted himself: "The issue of market value is not something that the players can decide. I just simply understand their evaluation criteria. Of course, I am also very grateful that they are willing to mark me with such an exaggerated price of million euros. Well, that's it. If possible, I think we can talk about some other issues, issues related to the game." What Jiang Yuan had prepared was no longer enough to support him to continue talking about his own worth, so he could only find a way to bring up a new topic, one that Jiang Yuan could deal with calmly. "You lost to Tottenham twice last season and you didn't get a single point from them. As a Chelsea starter, do you think the team has a chance to beat Tottenham today?" "We have a chance, of course we have a chance. We lost to them twice last season. I admit we felt very bad at the time, but I think this is more of an opportunity for us." When he said this, Jiang Yuan suddenly paused. "The opening game is always very important, especially the opening game against the defending champions. Winning this game can make us more confident in the new season."
This is what Jiang Yuan said when facing reporters' interview, and it is also what Tuchel said to the players in the locker room half an hour ago. This is indeed the case. If Chelsea players can take revenge on Tottenham in the first game of the new season, their self-confidence will definitely be much better. …… CCTV does not have the broadcasting rights for the Community Shield. There are only two ways for Chinese fans to watch the Community Shield. One is to go over the firewall and find BT Sport, and the other is to watch it directly on the domestic Huanledou website. Not to mention the England Community Shield, you can even watch the broadcast of Brazil's fourth-level league on those Happy Beans websites. The only downside is that the clarity is a little poor. Snapped! The sound of lighting a cigarette was heard in the live broadcast room, followed by a dull and powerful male voice. "Ahem, good evening everyone. Damn, today's game started at 9 o'clock. I slept until 6 o'clock yesterday and almost forgot that there was still this game to be broadcast." "You went to bed early this morning, not yesterday... Aren't they the same? What's the point of you having to catch these details?" "Let's watch the game first. The picture isn't very clear right now, so let's watch it first. I'll look for a clearer live stream later." "Now let me introduce the starting lineups for both teams. First up is Tottenham, the white jerseys, attacking from the left side of the screen to the right." Tottenham (3-4-2-1) Goalkeeper: Lori Defenders: Dier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen Midfielders: Trippier, Wanyama, Dembele, Ben Davies Forwards: Alli, Harry Kane, Eriksen Head coach: Conte. "Ahem, then it's Chelsea's 3421 formation, the same as Tottenham, but this should be the first time Chelsea has played with three central defenders in an official match." Walker and Umtiti both arrived at Chelsea relatively late, and considering this factor, Tuchel did not put them in the starting lineup in today's game. Today's three defenders are David Luiz, Zouma, and Christensen who returned from loan. Azpilicueta, who originally played as a left back, has now been moved to the midfield position. Of course, the midfield marked on the tactical board is the most mysterious thing. You feel that Azpilicueta has been transformed from a defender to a midfielder, but this is not the case. In actual combat, he can run anywhere, front or back. It’s just that in the three-center-back system, Azpilicueta will provide more support on the offensive end. At the beginning of the game, Jiang Yuan ran back and forth on the left side. Chelsea now has a lot of midfielders, and these midfielders would lean towards Jiang Yuan from time to time. Looking at the group of teammates wearing blue jerseys behind him, Jiang Yuan's self-confidence was boosted. "Give it to me, just give it to me!" Seeing Hazard get the ball, Jiang Yuan shouted twice, then ran forward directly. Red Trippier followed Jiang Yuan. The English defender had a very good defensive awareness. He did not rush up directly to block Jiang Yuan's position, but stood in a straight line between Jiang Yuan and the penalty area. Trippier doesn't need to complete the steal on Jiang Yuan, he just needs to make sure Jiang Yuan doesn't rush directly into the penalty area with the ball. Considering Jiang Yuan's cheating skills, it would be very dangerous to let him rush into the penalty area by himself! Seeing Jiang Yuan being blocked by Trippier, Hazard immediately leaned to the left, preparing to provide support to Jiang Yuan, but Tottenham's players were not idiots either. Ali, who returned to defense, immediately stood between Jiang Yuan and Hazard. "I'll come, I'll come!"
Ibrahimovic shouted twice and ran towards Jiang Yuan. The two of them made a very fast wall pass near the left bottom line, successfully helping Jiang Yuan get rid of Trippier's defense. The next person to defend Jiang Yuan was Dale. Unlike Trippier, Dale chose close defense. But there was no way. Jiang Yuan was already near the baseline. If Tottenham didn't defend closely, the goal might explode. "Center, pay attention to center!" Lori shouted twice, indicating that Alderweireld and Wanyama were optimistic about Ibrahimovic and Pogba. When Jiang Yuan goes down the field, Pogba may appear in the penalty area to grab a header, which is a very good part of Tuchel's tactics. The camera focused on Jiang Yuan. After Ibrahimovic left, Jiang Yuan was playing one-on-one with Dell. However, Jiang Yuan has Trippier behind him who keeps putting pressure on him, so this cannot be considered a strict one-on-one duel. "Jiang Yuan, look at what King Jiang is doing now. King Jiang's position seems to be stuck. Chelsea is in a very difficult situation now!" "Turn and cross... Cruyff turn! It was a Cruyff turn from Jiang Yuan, Dale didn't have time to react, and the cross was delivered!" "Pogba, header!" With a "bang" sound, Pogba's header went straight to the upper left corner of the goal, but unfortunately Lori's reaction was really fast. He jumped with both feet at the same time and successfully pushed the ball out of the crossbar. "Damn!" Pogba yelled at Lori, obviously dissatisfied with his French fellow countryman's behavior of blocking his header. William ran to the left to take a corner kick. Lori ignored Pogba and instead scolded both defenders Alderweireld and Vertonghen. "If he rushes up to you, just follow him. If you don't follow him, you will just give him a chance. Fuck!" Lori was very angry. It was only the 12th minute of the game, but the goal was already threatened. It’s hard to imagine that if he hadn’t reacted in time and saved the ball, Chelsea would have taken the lead 15 minutes before the first half! "Corner kick!" "Look for Ibrahimovic at the first position. Ibrahimovic is trapped by the defender. Jiang Yuan, see if you can do it!" In the camera, Jiang Yuan put his hands on Ibrahimovic's back and jumped up, pressing on his teammate's body, and successfully reached the ball that Ibrahimovic could not reach. Grit your teeth and head the ball out! "GOOOOOO-AAAAAAA-LLLLLLLL!!!" "The ball goes in! The ball goes in! Damn, is Chelsea so cruel?" "hiss--" A Kun is under a lot of pressure now. Before the game started, he and the Happy Bean fans in the live broadcast room instilled the idea that Tottenham must win. According to A Kun, Chelsea is using a new tactic, which requires time to run in, otherwise no matter how strong the players are, they will not be able to bring their best into play. That's true, but when you look at the score, 0:2, wouldn't A Kun be criticized to death? "Hey, don't worry, trust me, Tottenham will win"
"Although Jiang Yuan scored a goal, Tottenham's odds are still relatively strong. If you buy now, the odds may be even higher. Really, Chelsea will never be able to beat Tottenham." Akun is the kind of fan who prefers to look at the data. Last season, Tottenham had the most points and won the championship, so he said that Tottenham can definitely beat Chelsea. In the Happy Beans circle, those who buy football matches based on the standings are the lowest class of people, so A Kun was naturally attacked by fans in the live broadcast room. [Nima anchor, if Tottenham loses today, I will visit you at your house with a small gift] [I am dying of laughter. I have already said that A Kun really does not understand football. If you want a better solution, you can go to the next room. The queen’s voice is nice and the solution she gives is pretty accurate.] [It's not necessary. Brothers, just watching A Kun for fun. Anyone who really bought according to my plan would have gone bankrupt long ago and would not play this game.] 【Follow one 】 [The guy above, you bet 10 bucks on Tottenham to win, but you can't even wash your feet if you win, right? ] [Participation is the most important thing. I am a loyal fan of A Kun!] [I understand. Among A Kun’s fans, those who are more concerned about participation are still alive, while all the real gamblers are bankrupt. Is this the strength of my brother Kun?] [Brother, come and buy a hand of Tottenham 5:4 Chelsea, buy million, if you win, buy Jiang Yuan to work for you] [What kind of job can Xiao Jiang do? He only has a high school degree, so he can only work in an electronics factory] [God damn, you sent the electronics factory to any team in the Chinese Super League. Do you have any brains?] [Is this my brother Kun’s live broadcast room? Jiang Yuan is only qualified to tighten screws] "Fuck! Fuck!" “Xuuu——!!!!” Chelsea's goal made the Tottenham fans at the scene very uncomfortable, and they started to attack the players on the field. As the champions of last season, Tottenham fans were very proud. Facing Chelsea with a new coach and new tactics, they thought this was a sure win. I didn't expect that it was the opponent who scored the first goal, and they scored after 15 minutes. On the other hand, on the west side of the Chelsea stand, a banner with Jiang Yuan’s full name in Chinese had been put up. For fans who speak Latin, writing two neat Chinese characters is quite difficult, but this is not the first time that Chelsea fans have done this. Calling the player in his mother tongue is the greatest respect Chelsea fans have for Jiang Yuan. “Pay attention to your position, look both front and back.” "Paul, pay attention to your vision, don't be blocked behind, run up quickly!" Tuchel shouted loudly, and Pogba, who was named, quickly ran to William's position to assist his teammate in completing a pass. In the 12th minute, Jiang Yuan completed a powerful breakthrough on the left, and in the 22nd minute, William also started on the right. Seeing this scene, Tottenham fans finally realized that something was wrong. Wasn’t it because a key winger was injured that Chelsea’s performance declined last season? Now William is back, and after more than 20 days of pre-match training, he is almost in full shape. "William, you're so fast, you're walking into the penalty area and you've already passed one person. Damn it, don't do that!"
Seeing the Chelsea winger dribbling the ball outside the penalty area, Akun was very nervous. If I had known this before the game, I wouldn’t have said that Tottenham was sure to win! "Vertonghen, can Vertonghen stop William!" "Hiss, Vertonghen is so timid that he doesn't dare to come up. Isn't he afraid that William will shoot directly at the goal?" Vertonghen did not step forward to intercept William directly because his teammates on the side were already in position. Dembele stretched his foot towards William from the side and blocked the Brazilian with his thigh. !!! William reacted very quickly in a tense state and quickly passed the ball to Pogba behind him. The latter suddenly knocked the ball to the left with his right foot and made a very fast cross pass to Jiang Yuan who was running from the left to the middle. "Just hit him!" Hazard shouted, and Jiang Yuan had the same intention. He wrapped the ball with the inside of his foot and then made a cold shot from the near corner. “GOOOOOOO—AAAAAAAAA—LLLLLLLL!!” "What a GOAL!" "Holy shit!" The camera focused on Jiang Yuan. After scoring a goal with a cold shot, Jiang Yuan ran from the position where he had just shot and ran all the way to his favorite left corner flagpole. To be honest, he himself didn't expect that this ball could go in! “0:2, what the hell!” "Bang bang bang bang bang bang!" The familiar sound of keyboard smashing rang out in the Huanledou live broadcast room. Before the game, it was predicted that Tottenham would win, but 25 minutes later, the real-time score on the field was 0:2, which was a slap in the face. Jiang Yuan scored a goal and A Kun was certainly happy, but the problem was that as a Happy Beans prediction anchor, he couldn't be slapped in the face like this! "Pretty!" Azpilicueta pulled Jiang Yuan up from the ground, spun him half a circle and then threw him out. Jiang Yuan, who was thrown out, fell into Ibrahimovic's arms again. "Genius, that's it, kill them!" Ibrahimovic is the most vengeful player in the entire Chelsea team, no doubt about it. Last season, he didn't even touch the ball a few times when playing against Tottenham, which was a very embarrassing thing. Fortunately, Tottenham conceded two goals in the first game of the new season. The director replayed the scene of Jiang Yuan's goal and made a slow motion shot of the moment when Jiang Yuan made the cold shot. After completing the goal replay, the director turned the camera to Pochettino standing in front of the home team's bench. There is no doubt that Pochettino is also looking worried now. The reason why Tottenham was able to beat Chelsea last season was simply because Kyle Walker locked up Chelsea's only offensive point. Now Kyle Walker runs to the other side, and Chelsea also has the talented wing Willian who has returned from injury. Last season, Chelsea had only 0 attacking points against Tottenham, and that was long shots.
But in the new season Chelsea has two more attacking points, Jiang Yuan on the left and William on the right. How will Tottenham deal with these two wing attackers. Answer: There is no way to handle it. “Let’s go!” The halftime whistle blew and players from both teams began to walk towards the player tunnel one after another. Jiang Yuan squatted down and tied his shoelaces. "Huh? What's wrong?" A Kun in the live broadcast room opened his eyes wide, feeling that something bad was going to happen, but Jiang Yuan stood up on his own after a few seconds, and A Kun finally breathed a sigh of relief. …… In the home team's locker room, Pochettino emphasized some of the problems in the first half. The offensive disconnect was one aspect, but the most important issue was the defense. "The pressure on our flanks will be relatively high, so the midfielders on both sides must pay attention to returning to defense, which is very, very important." When speaking, Pochettino specifically glanced in the direction of Trippier. The latter of course knew what the coach meant, so he immediately said: "I was returning to defense, I have always been returning to defense, but I don't have the speed. What can I do? I can only watch him pass over my face." "..." What Trippier said was a bit impolite, but Pochettino couldn't do anything about it. The fact is just as Trippier said. After Kyle Walker left, there was no player in Tottenham who could effectively restrict Jiang Yuan when he dribbled the ball. When Chelsea made an offer to Tottenham in June, Pochettino was actually very reluctant to let Kyle Walker go. But Chelsea offered 6000 million euros, damn 6000 million euros! "Kieran, listen, I know this game is a little difficult for you, but I hope you will try your best, okay? We still have a chance to win." When they fell behind, Pochettino began to give the players tranquilizers and made some subtle adjustments at the tactical level. In addition to Trippier, Wanyama will also participate in the defense of Jiang Yuan on the wing. Although they should play more aggressively when falling behind, Pochettino thought carefully and felt that this was not the way to play. Jiang Yuan is in incredible shape today. If he is allowed to play on the wing, he might be able to score a hat trick! At the beginning of the second half, in the 50th minute, Tuchel made the first substitution. Kyle Walker replaced Azpilicueta, and Kante, who was originally on the right, was moved to the left. "Clap clap clap!" As expected, Kyle Walker received immediate applause from Tottenham fans when he came on the pitch. Although Kyle Walker has left the team, he was one of the meritorious players in Tottenham's championship last season and witnessed Tottenham's first Premier League championship. "Chelsea replaced Kyle Walker when they were leading 2-0. To be honest, I felt it was a little early for this new player." "Walker only transferred here at the end of July, and he has been with the team for less than 7 days. Some concepts must not have been implemented yet. Tuchel was so anxious to make substitutions, probably because he wanted to stabilize the score, and he actually put Walker in such a front position." "So, brothers who bought Tottenham's only win in the live broadcast room should not be nervous for the time being, we will see what Tottenham will do."
"There were no substitutions, but Tottenham's defense was clearly more solid in the second half. Jiang Yuan and Hazard looked for opportunities on the left, but they were slow to score." "Jiang Yuan, move to the middle, Wanyama, make a tackle!" "No, shit, why the hell are you putting down the shovel at this time? Is this Wanyama mentally retarded? Shit!" "It's a foul in this position. You are facing Chelsea..." Akun was overwhelmed, and Wanyama quickly fell to the ground and made a tackle, giving Chelsea a free kick opportunity. Why give the free kick to Chelsea when there are so many other people to give it to? In Chelsea, Pogba, Kante and William all have the ability to score directly from free kicks. Of course, the most important thing is that guy... In the camera, Hazard picked up the ball, and the ball landed into Jiang Yuan's hands. "hiss--" "Brothers, I'm a little nervous, but Jiang Yuan's direct free kick in the first half was missed. Although he had a good shooting feel today, his free kick was not on target." "There are still..." "boom!" Jiang Yuan did not choose the elevator ball, nor did he choose to kick a so-called tricky arc, because he saw the space between Dembele and Ali. The space is big enough to take a kick. …… (End of this chapter)
