At the end of the day's training, the players left the training ground one after another. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As these players have just experienced two weeks of international football and a long journey to play tomorrow afternoon, the coaching staff did not arrange high-intensity training as usual, but focused on relaxation and recovery as much as possible.
Not only that, but Mourinho also decided to rotate the main squad to a certain extent.
Teenager Theo Walcourt will start in the league for the first time this season, with Robben on the right, and as Kaka arrived in the afternoon, Mourinho will not let him start tomorrow, with Sergio Aguero taking his place, plus an Ismael, to form a magical quartet up front.
Behind is the Spanish teenager Cesc Fabregas, although he was also selected for the national team, but he failed to play, only came off the bench, and his fitness is good, Michael? Johnson will play as the other midfielder, with Essien and Mikel both out of the squad and De Rossi on the bench.
The backline consisted of Patrice Evra, John Terry, Curtis and Alves, with goalkeeper Petr Cech.
The list was also made by Mourinho after taking into account his players' appearances in the past two weeks of international matches, after all, many South American and African players have travelled long distances, and arranging for them to rest and recuperate will help them physically.
For the Red Rebels, the most troublesome aspect of multi-front play is the fitness of the players, especially when faced with a busy schedule.
The players walked into the training building one after another, passed by the door of the recreation room, and found that many players stopped at the door, and Walcott immediately came over.
Although he is the youngest, after staying with these big brothers in the first team for a long time, he is gradually not afraid of life, and he gets along with his teammates more and more, which makes him quickly integrate into the environment of the first team.
"What are you looking at?" Walcot tapped Curtis on the shoulder, squeezed his head out of his shoulder, and saw an interview about Platini on television.
"This guy is criticizing our team again, bastard!" Curtis scolded angrily.
Many Red Rebels players next to him are also unhappy with Platini, and even Evra feels that Platini's approach is a bit excessive, after all, he is a witness to the rise of the Red Rebels, and he knows better than anyone else the culture and values of the Red Rebels, which also makes him more loyal to the Red Rebels than anyone else.
"Mr. Platini, Mr. Xiao Yu responded privately, he said that the goal of the Red Rebels this season is to win all the titles, what do you think about this?" On TV, the reporter asked about Platini, hoping that he could respond to Xiao Yu's words.
"They've got this every year, but we've seen it, have they achieved it so far? I have to admit that the Red Rebels have won a lot of trophies and it is not easy to defend the Champions Cup, but I would say that the possibility of them winning the Champions Cup again this season is not at all, let alone the Champions Cup, and even the Premier League is very difficult! ”
"Why do you say that?"
'Normally, players have some ups and downs after a season of competition and the Summer World Cup, so we can see that Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and other teams are not in great form, which gives the likes of Everton and Droysden the opportunity to take advantage of it, but the Red Rebels are strong.
"You mean to say that the Red Rebels are in a state that came too soon and too early?"
"Yes, that's right, maybe they have enough to solve it, but I'm sure that as the season progresses, the Red Rebels will be at a low ebb, and that's when they will collapse!" Platini smiled confidently.
As everyone knows, outside the TV, the players of the Red Rebels watched it, and they were all indignant, and they couldn't wait to smash the TV, they felt that anyone could suspect the Red Rebels, but Platini couldn't!
"Leave him alone, this bastard is sensationalism, and if we are influenced by him and we do badly on the court, then we have fallen into his trap!" Terry patted his teammates on the shoulder and encouraged them.
"That's right, we're the Red Rebels, and since he says we're not good, then we're going to show him, and we're going to slap him with the champion!" Curtis shouted along, but soon sneered again, "He'd better not be UEFA's president, otherwise, I guess, when we win the trophy, he will give us the award, it will be funny!" ”
Curtis's words were immediately echoed by his teammates around him, especially the confidence on his face, as if nothing Platini had predicted was a problem in his eyes.
But in fact, in the office on the second floor, Mourinho was having a headache about the current situation, he got the report sent from the laboratory, he was very aware of the current situation of the team, and he was also worried about the overall low tide predicted by Platini, but at the moment, the top priority was to take down the Hammers!
…………………… The Hammers still maintain a strong flavor of English football, and some people say that this comes directly from manager Allan? Pardew has a striker with excellent header ability in the middle, two wing-backs with good speed and technique on both flanks, and two interception-type midfielders with excellent interception and running ability in the back.
That's West Ham's killer feature!
Last season, West Ham United was promoted to the Premier League as a promoted horse, and it was in this unreasonable way to kill many Premier League teams, which made West Ham United not only successful in relegation, but also achieved a good league standing, which made Pardew famous in one fell swoop, but this season, when all teams are familiar with West Ham United's tactics, Pardue is out of line.
Bobby, who was once selected for the England national team? Zamora was arranged by Pardu in the center position, with a height of 1.86 meters and a block of 75 kilograms, coupled with good physical fitness and good technique, which made Zamora Padu's favorite general.
Originally, everyone thought that with the transfer of Tevez and Melo this season, the forward combination of Zamora and Sheringham should be broken, but who knows, Pardew completely put Tevez and Melo into the cold after the first three rounds of adjustment at the beginning of the league, especially Melo, who was pressed on the bench.
Is the double midfielder that Pardew trusts Leo? The combination of Koke and Mullins, with Benayoun and Esselington in full-back, has nothing to do with Tevez and Melo, especially after the two players have just played in the national teams of Argentina and Brazil, Tevez was left in London and Melo was on the bench.
Although it is an away game, Padue is obviously not afraid, you know, last season they won 1-0 at home to the Reds, even if it was an away game, they only lost a 0:1, which makes Padu feel that West Ham United, which has strengthened this season, may not be without the strength to fight against the Red Rebels who came on as a substitute.
Such a judgment directly influenced his pre-match set-up and affected the performance of his players in the game, which made West Ham play with great momentum from the start, especially on the right side of Benayoun, who was a frequent threat.
Pardew had his hands folded around his chest in a very sturdy manner, standing on the sidelines, his gray hair looked very famous, especially his confident smile, and even Andy, who was in charge of the game commentary? Gray felt that he seemed to have a plan to make.
However, as the game progressed, Curtis performed well, and the double central defender of him and John Terry became the cornerstone of the Red Rebels' backline, and Zamora, despite being similar in size, did not take advantage of the competition for headers, which completely froze West Ham's wide cross tactics.
The Red Rebels are off to a steady start, after all, Michael? The back-back combination of Johnson and Cesc Fabregas made Mourinho dare not press at the beginning, and with West Ham United pressing out at the beginning, Mourinho naturally chose to let the team stabilize first.
After 15 minutes of comity, West Ham's offensive came to a halt, and the Red Rebels' control on the pitch was gradually revealed. Johnson and Cesc Fabregas formed a double back that made West Ham even more difficult to control the game.
"I have to say that Parde's start is good, but unfortunately, he miscalculated the situation, if he hasn't been able to come up with too many changes so far, then the next game can only be led by the Red Rebels!" Andy? Gray made this prediction.
Many of the teams playing against the Red Rebels can also control the situation at first, but they lack variety, lack of change, and once their offensive is familiar and cracked by the Red Rebels, then it will be Red Rebels' show time.
Sure enough, just as Andy? As Gray expected, after getting through the opening three axes of West Ham, the Red Rebels were in Cesc Fabregas and Michael? Under Johnson's organization, he launched wave after wave of attacks, while West Ham United, who had just taken the initiative on the field, had to retreat to their own half because they were worried about the backline.
Next, it's up to the Red Rebels to break through West Ham's defence!
........................ "Beautiful! Aguero made a beautiful pass in the middle, Walcourt stopped the ball on his chest, and then picked up the penalty area again, Ismael nodded the ball into the goal when no one was marked, and the ball went in, 1:0, the Red Rebels temporarily took the lead! ”
Accompanied by Andy? Gray's voice, all the Red Rebels fans on the scene created an extremely amazing momentum, the entire 85,000 fans of the Red Rebels stadium was full, when everyone cheered in unison, the momentum was like the sky falling apart, I believe that the less courageous away team players can't help but tremble.
'Spiketor has to be held accountable for the mistakes, especially when Walcoat stopped the ball and was squeezed behind by the Englishman, who easily picked up a cross into the box and settled in? Rio Ferdinand also failed to get back in time, leading to Ismael's easy opening of the net, and Carroll, despite his reaction, couldn't get the ball into the net! ”
In the 31st minute, the Red Rebels took the lead!
Padu, who was still playing cool on the side of the pitch just now, became angry at this time, especially when he pointed to the players on the pitch and shouted, he was full of English anxiety, and this anxiety also directly affected the players on the pitch.
Soon, the Red Rebels who played with momentum expanded the score again in the first half, and it was still Ismael, who leaned on the central defender Gabbiton with his body at the penalty spot. Johnson sent the ball to his feet accurately, and the England center forward did not waste this opportunity, turning and volleying, Carroll was out of reach again, 2:0!
Ismael, who scored twice, was particularly excited, hugging his teammates one by one on the court, but when he ran in front of Curtis, he suddenly slowed down.
At this time, all the Red Rebels players noticed, and everyone knew very well, that Ismael and Curtis did not have a good relationship, and the two often ran against each other, which is said to be related to the rivalry and conflict they had in those years.
But soon, Curtis took the initiative to stretch out his arms and hugged Ismail.
"Well done, Ismail!" Curtis shouted with a laugh.
Ismael was stunned, not only him, but all the Red Rebel players.
They...... They actually reconciled?
'If we want to achieve better results, we have to be united, we have to be united, we have to be of one mind, we have to give up all personal grudges in the interests of the team, I know the next game is going to be difficult, so I don't want to affect the team because of the two of us, what do you say?'
Ismail nodded and smiled, "Listen to you!" After saying that, the two hugged each other tightly.
"Come on, Ismail, one more! Kill them! Before parting, Curtis slapped Ismail hard.
The latter nodded heavily in agreement.
In fact, Ismail did not break his promise, although the Red Rebels failed to continue to score in the first half, but after the start of the second half, Ismail appeared very active, frequently creating opportunities in the penalty area, and Mourinho consciously let Aguero advance and get closer to the penalty area, which made the Red Rebels' offensive ability improved.
Sergio Aguero has a nickname in the Red Rebels, called the box elf, which not only shows his flexibility, speed and skill in the box, but also reflects his ability to score in the box against the goal, especially when he is on the verge of goal, he is always surprisingly calm.
He is the king of the Red Rebels' slate and almost never misses a single one, even in training, against the world's No. 1 goalkeeper, Cech, he rarely misses, let alone against Carroll.
In the 52nd minute of the second half, Aguero got a single chance, after entering the penalty area, he picked the ball over Carroll's head, and after the ball crossed a trajectory, it fell into the goal line, and Bol awarded the goal validly, 3:0!
After the goal, Aguero looked very excited, ran all the way to the live camera on the sidelines, and excitedly made a heart-shaped gesture with his hands, but he didn't know who he was expressing his love for.
And less than 3 minutes after Aguero's goal, Ismael scored again, after a deft smash at the edge of the penalty area, he used his not very good left foot to pump the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal, 4:0!
It was Ismael's first Premier League hat-trick, which made the England international excitedly collect the ball for the game, apparently ready to be framed as a souvenir.
In the rest of the game, the Red Rebels dominated the situation on the field, West Ham United defended passively, and both sides failed to score again, while the Red Rebels relied on Ismael's hat trick, with Aguero's one-knife goal, and with this group of young players, they won 8 consecutive victories and continued to lead the league!
After the eighth round of the league, the Red Rebels traveled to challenge Sofia Levsky.
Despite playing away, despite Sofia Levski's defensive counter-attacking tactics at home, the Red Rebels still performed well, with three goals scored by Drogba, Ronaldo Jr. and Patrice Evra in the 33rd, 35th and 37th minutes, respectively, the Red Rebels won an away game 0:3.
The victory also cemented the Reds to top the group, and a home win over Sofia Levski would see them top the group and advance to the last 16 of the Champions League.
But the day after the third round of the Champions League group stage, there was a piece of news from Bulgaria.
