In midweek, there was an FA Cup play-off round, with the Red Rebels winning in the fourth round, so there was no game, which allowed Mourinho to easily adjust his players' form for the 26th round of the league.

Away against Fulham, this is another tough battle, which is related to Fulham's strategy of pursuing home points, they are the most typical home dragon away bugs, they have not won even one away game this season, but they can be 11th in the league, it has a lot to do with their ability to pick up points at home.

For a team like Fulham, a home bias is also an effective strategy.

However, the premise is that they don't hope to defeat the Red rebels who are in good form!

Jose Mourinho's strategy for visiting Craven Cottage was clear, with the team needing to pick up valuable three points away from home to defend their top spot in the league while also aiming for a hearty victory.

To this end, Mourinho arranged all the main players to play, the goalkeeper is Cech, and the back line from left to right are Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Curtis and Alves, McCone was a little injured and was left in Manchester; The two midfielders are David Beckham and De Rossi, the front is Kaka, the two wingers are Ronaldo Jr. and Messi, and the single striker is Villa.

Prior to this game, the selection of Villa and Ismail made it a bit difficult for Mourinho to decide, Ismael was more dominant in the box and it was a tough battle against Fulham, Ismael's height and strong body, as well as his ability to play the ball in the box were all things he relied on, but Villa showed exceptional form in training.

Eventually, after much deliberation, Mourinho decided to start Villa.

The Spaniard didn't waste Mourinho's trust in him, and at the start of the game, he showed a strong goal**, with a long-range shot from outside the box in the first minute that almost found the Fulham goal, but the goalkeeper made a timely save.

After that, Villa appeared to be very active, frequently getting opportunities in the penalty area, but it was not until the 27th minute that he received Messi's low flat ball on the right side and pierced Fulham's goal, 0:1!

Fulham were tenacious after conceding the goal, but morale was high among the Red Rebels, especially at the thought of the team reaching the top of the league table for the first time this season, and the players were particularly excited to let Fulham stand in the way.

In the 35th minute, after Kaka broke through at high speed in the middle, he went straight behind him again, Villa leaned on the opponent's central defender with his body, and scored with a right-footed volley, 0:2!

Fulham made adjustments at halftime, playing a little conservatively in the second half, but the Red Rebels were more active, Kaka took the lead in receiving Evra's 45-degree cross in the penalty area as soon as he started, and after stopping the ball on his chest to shake off the defender, he hit a right-footed volley, 0:3!

The Red Rebels, who were attacking with all their might, were seized by Fulham in the 53rd minute to get a point back, but Fulham's stubborn resistance did not stop the Red Rebels' attack**, but completely stirred up the Red Rebels' blood surname.

In the 67th minute, Aguero, who started on behalf of Kaka, performed well, broke through with the ball at high speed in the middle, and after connecting the two opponents, he scored with a low shot, 1:4!

Consecutive goals conceded completely crushed Fulham's victory**, and the Red Rebels took advantage of the victory to chase, Villa showed the strength of a super goalscorer, and got another chance in the 69th minute, taking advantage of a corner kick opportunity of the Red Rebels, receiving Curtis's header ferry, and easily pushing the goal from the back point, and scored a hat trick, 1:5!

The Red Rebels, who were leading by a large score, played more calmly, while Fulham lost the courage to resist and chose to retreat into their own penalty area, which made the game completely one-sided.

In the 81st minute, Ismael, who came on as a substitute for Villa, received a cross from Xiao Xiaoluo on the left side, hit the goal with a header, and the ball hit the crossbar and bounced into the goal, 1:6, the Red Rebels won Fulham away by a big score!

However, the Red Rebels were not happy for long, as news soon came that Droysden had lost 1-0 at home to Liverpool, Manuel Pellegrini's side froze Liverpool's attack, but in the end they lost to Hyypia, and the Finnish international took advantage of a corner in the second half to score the winning goal for Liverpool.

It was arguably a crucial goal, especially now that the title race is heating up, and Hyypia's goal kept the pressure on the Red Rebels alive.

Chelsea, on the other hand, after losing at home to Liverpool, the team clearly failed to get out of the slump, and the defeat at Middlesbrough was a complete surprise, especially for Chelsea fans.

It has to be said that it is very frustrating for Chelsea to collectively play out of style in the crucial moments, after all, they have been solid in the past two seasons, and although they have lost strong conversations, they have always been able to turn the tide quickly.

However, this time it is also related to the red card suspension of Stam and the suspension of Carvalho for accumulating yellow cards, which makes Chelsea's backline very unbearable, Cannavaro is full of mistakes, and Middlesbrough's youngster Downing is excellent, two passes and one shot, and is elected the best player of the game.

Unlike Chelsea's drop, in the next day's game, Manchester City was equalized twice in a row by Charlton Athletic, twice stubbornly led again, Van Gaal's team with tenacity and unity style to get a valuable three points, making them surpass Chelsea, with 62 points Manchester United is away to Portsmouth 1-3, Robinho scored twice, and has an assist, which makes the Brazilian completely the new favorite of the Red Devils, especially his attacking combination with Diego and Rooney, as the season deepens, With the Santos duo integrated into Manchester United, they have been even better.

Another star who has been in the game has been more and more active recently, Quaresma, who was once considered a parallel commodity in the Portuguese, but Ferguson has pushed him to keep him in the team, and now Quaresma has been doing better and better under his tutelage, and now firmly occupies the right winger position of Manchester United.

As the players got better and better, Ferguson made changes to Manchester United in the middle of the season, with Wayne Rooney as the lone striker, Robinho on the left, Diego in the middle of the midfield, and Quaresma on the right.

After 26 rounds of play, the Red Rebels are at the top of the table with 64 points, followed by Liverpool with 63 points, followed by Manchester City with 62 points, Manchester United with 60 points, and Chelsea lost to Middlesbrough due to an unexpected upset, falling out of the top four with 59 points and falling to the fifth place in the league.

It's a round of heaven and a round of hell!

…………………… Due to the fact that the Red Rebels are going to participate in the League Cup final, the 27th round of the league was brought forward to the evening of the 14th, this round of the Red Rebels hosted Middlesbrough, Mourinho sent his main force on the field, and cleanly 2:0 Middlesbrough was defeated.

This early round of fixtures gave the Red Rebels a four-point lead in the standings, but with the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea playing one more round, as long as these teams don't make mistakes, the Red Rebels' lead will be reduced back to one point.

However, there is another highlight in this round, that is, Liverpool hosting Manchester City, which will be the most closely watched one of the main events of this round, as the league leaders, the Red Rebels hope that the two teams can draw the best.

The FA Cup is on Saturday and Jose Mourinho once again sent his Academy players away to Preston North End.

In this game, Walcott was promoted to the first team again and started, and after the help of the laboratory, the coaching staff, and even his team-mates, Walcott showed a welcome change in the game.

Although the team was held to a 0-0 draw at home by Preston North End , Walcott played a number of good performances in the game, according to Opta statistics after the game, Walcott made 13 dribbles and succeeded 11 times, arguably the best player in the game, if it were not for Preston North End in the penalty area, the Red Rebels should be able to win the opponent.

After a miserable draw at Preston North End, they will return to the Red Rebels Stadium on March 15 for a second-leg rematch.

After playing against Preston North End in midweek, the Red Rebels travelled to take on Belgium's Brussels in midweek, and in the first leg of the Champions League last-16 knockout round, the Red Rebels won 2-0 away thanks to Kaka's brace.

Back in England, the Red Rebels headed south to Cardiff for their Carabao Cup final against Droisden.

Although the League Cup has long been reduced to chicken ribs, it is impossible for Mourinho not to pay attention to the team's final in the end, and the next round of the league is not until a week away, so the Red Rebels can go all out.

On the other hand, Droisden has a game away to Tottenham Hotspur in midweek and a home to Manchester United at the weekend, which makes Pellegrini have to be cautious, after all, Droisden is in good shape this season and has a good chance of reaching European competitions, which is not something that can be given by the Carabao Cup.

It is not difficult to see from Pellegrini's line-up that he does not attach great importance to the Carabao Cup.

Goalkeeper Joe? Hart, the England goalkeeper has been a solid performer this season and has been a vocal selection for the England squad and, despite being only 18 years old, has already established himself in Droisden and has been hailed as the new Schmeichel after coming through the Red Rebels' Academy.

From left to right, the backline is Gareth? Bell, Michael? Dawson, Shawcross and Maika? Richards, the back three are Sully? Muntari, Mascherano and Sidwell, and the two wingers are Ashley? Young and Lennon, with Kitson at center.

Half of the set was made up of Droisden's bench, while Forlan, the team's top scorer, was on the bench, Dzeko did not start, and Jaguelka was left in Manchester with a minor injury.

From these, it is not difficult to see that Pellegrini does not attach importance to the League Cup, what he really wants is the stability of the league results, to enter the European competition, even if it is only the League Cup, but for Droisden, for him, it is more important than the League Cup.

Although Droisden is known as the Red Rebel II, the Red Rebel, as the big brother, did not sympathize with the younger brother at all, and instead of doing his best, he did his best to defeat Droisden with a clean 4:0.

Ismael started the game and put in an impressive performance, scoring twice in the 33rd and 68th minutes, while Franck Franck Ribery and De Rossi scored once each to give the Red Rebels an overcome.

4:0, hearty, the Red Rebels had a good tactical lesson to the younger brothers at Cardiff Stadium, although Droysden arranged a lot of young substitutes on the field, but they were still slightly lacking in tactical execution, arranging three backs, but they failed to create enough pressure on the Red Rebels in the midfield.

Shawcross looked very immature in front of his little brother Ismail, and was played twice, resulting in a big defeat for Droisden, while Kitson was under the care of Chiellini and failed to find too many opportunities throughout the game, which was also related to Droisden's suppression on the wing and his failure to organize an effective attack.

Although Droysden was defeated in the Carabao Cup final, the outside world was not surprised by the scoreline of this game, after all, no one takes the Carabao Cup seriously compared to the league.

Meanwhile, the 27th round of the Premier League was played at the same time as the Carabao Cup final, with Arsenal losing 1-0 at Blackburn Rovers, Chelsea beating Portsmouth 2-0 and Manchester United beating West Ham United 1-0.

And for the strong dialogue at that critical moment in this round, Liverpool at home once again showed a strong strength, Benitez once again showed the level of world-class tactical masters, both sides in the first half tactically restrained each other, and neither made any mistakes, but in the second half, Benitez changed in the midfield, and the new Colwill scored the winning goal for Liverpool at the beginning of the second half.

Louis van Gaal was frustrated by the 1-0 defeat at Liverpool after the game, feeling City were playing more aggressively throughout the game and Benitez's tactics looked more conservative.

'He's always thinking about how to limit us to score, and he's never wanted to play more aggressively at home!

But complaining can't change the score, and it can't change Manchester City's decline in the standings.

With both Manchester United and Chelsea victorious, Manchester City were knocked out of the top four in one fell swoop due to the strength of this strong conversation, while Manchester United jumped into third place in the league and Chelsea were fourth.

However, in the 28th round of the league, Chelsea travel to take on the Red Rebels at the top of the table, a Mars collision with the Earth, and the first heavyweight test of the Red Rebels after reaching the top of the table.

And just before this game, the Red Rebels' players who went to the Africa Cup of Nations also returned to the training base one after another, which gave Mourinho a more liberal change in the use of his troops.
