Chapter 110: Diego who is not convinced

Maybe it's because it's too cold, or maybe it's because Chelsea's results this season are so bad that even the Chelsea fans have been affected, and even at Stamford Bridge, the overwhelming numerical advantage of the Chelsea fans can't completely suppress the momentum of Manchester United's away fans.

Giggs frowned and looked at the sky, where snowflakes fluttered, and there was no intention of stopping.

It looks like it's a snow battle!

Giggs let out a long sigh of relief, and quickly turned into a white mist in the icy air.

"Run away a little, warm up!" Ryan Giggs shouted at the United players on the pitch.

At this time, the Manchester United players were warming up on the field, all of them were wearing long-sleeved sports sweatshirts, sports pants on the lower half of their bodies, gloves on their hands, and hats on their heads. On the sidelines, there are also Manchester United staff who put away the players' coats and put them on the bench seats to avoid snowflakes on their clothes, so that as soon as the warm-up is over, the players can immediately wrap up their down coats to keep their bodies warm.

The same is true for Chelsea on the other side, with players from both sides sitting on the pitch to warm up, and then a fierce confrontation that can easily be injured if the body is not fully warmed up. Although Stamford Bridge has a geothermal system and there is no snow, it is inevitable that the site will be slippery on such a snowy day.

In the 25th round of the Premier League, Chelsea's home game against Manchester United is undoubtedly the highlight of this round. This match was played at the end of the round, and the other nine matches were completed before the start of this match.

In the other focus match, Manchester City was defeated 1-3 by Leicester City at their home stadium! As a result, Leicester City secured their second place in the league with 53 points.

All eyes are on the game between Chelsea and Manchester United. If Manchester United loses this game, then Leicester City is only ten points behind Manchester United, although the difference of ten points is still huge, but it also means that at least the suspense of the Premier League title will not end so early.

As for whether Chelsea can beat Manchester United?

"It's still possible! According to the pre-match news, Hazard has returned to this game, and only Pato, Falcao, and Remy are unable to play in the Chelsea lineup, but this does not have much impact on Chelsea! Commentator Andy Gray said from the commentary seat.

Sky Sports cut into the live broadcast signal early when the players were warming up, which is the exclusive treatment of the focus game, if it is a normal game, Sunderland playing Watford or something, how many people will be interested in watching their warm-up pictures.

Manchester United is different from Chelsea, they have too many big names in their squad, Li Qingshan, Diego Costa, Di Maria, De Gea, Hazard......... Just watching these stars worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars running on the court to warm up, there are many fans who are tired of it.

As Ancelotti spoke, the televised camera focused on Diego Costa.

There is no doubt that Diego Costa is a barometer of Chelsea's attacking prowess, with a striker in good form who can score and a bad one who has a hard time scoring when he is in bad form.

Unfortunately, this season's Diego Costa........... The state has been like a roller coaster, very unstable. It seems to have been in the same doldrums as Chelsea this season.

With the other three centre-forwards in Chelsea's squad unavailable for this game, Diego Costa is unsubstituted for this game.......... How well he performs directly determines the quality of Chelsea's attack. Hiddink must be praying right now that Diego Costa is in good shape! Henry was also on the commentary bench, and across from him was Carragher. Carragher nodded in agreement.

Now Sky Sports' commentator partners, good friends Carragher and Gary Neville, with Neville taking office, becoming the head coach of Valencia, and now the person sitting opposite Carragher has been replaced by Henry, and the two sides are not bad partners so far. I don't know if Neville will lose his job when he returns.........

In the shot, Diego Costa's face is red from the cold cold, and his nostrils are exhaling white breath. Judging by his expression and running posture, there was nothing to see. However, such low temperatures may make it difficult for Diego Costa, who hails from warm Brazil, to adapt.

Diego Costa, despite being red from the cold, is actually a little more comfortable than others think. He glanced up at Li Qingshan on the other side.

Speaking of which, when Diego Costa was at Atletico Madrid, he had a good relationship with Li Qingshan, and they partnered with each other to help Atletico Madrid win the first championship trophy in the team's history.

However, since Diego Costa left Atletico Madrid, the two have begun to fall apart on the path of their careers.

Li Qingshan, who stayed in Atletico Madrid, was set up by Simeone as the only core of the team, and the whole team revolved around Li Qingshan, and Li Qingshan fought against the banner of Atletico Madrid for two seasons, his terrifying scoring ability made the entire football world look sideways, and even he broke Messi Ronaldo's monopoly on the La Liga Golden Boot for two consecutive seasons, and even before he left La Liga, the pattern of La Liga was once from Messi Ronaldo's two-man hegemony to Li Qingshan, Messi, Ronaldo troika, and even Li Qingshan was slightly ahead of a position advantage.

And Diego Costa, who came to the Premier League, although his performance in the first two seasons was not bad, but when compared with Li Qingshan, he was overshadowed.

As soon as he left Atletico Madrid, Simeone immediately straightened Li Qingshan as the absolute core, giving Li Qingshan absolute tactical freedom and support on the field. For this, Diego Costa is a little savvy in his heart.

I didn't have such treatment when I was at Atletico Madrid! This shows that at least in Simeone's heart, Li Qingshan is better than him Diego Costa.

But Diego Costa doesn't think so in his own mind. When he partnered with Li Qingshan in La Liga, he was the main player at that time, and Li Qingshan was only introduced in the winter transfer window, and even existed as a center forward in Villa's substitute role for a time.

I didn't expect that there would be such a big gap between the development of the two sides now.

The last time the two sides met, Diego Costa was suspended due to the accumulation of yellow cards, and this time the two sides met again, and Diego Costa could finally compete with Li Qingshan on the court as an opponent!

If you put the tactical resources obtained by Li Qingshan on your head, how could Lao Tzu perform worse than him!

Diego Costa thought unconvinced.
