After two consecutive wins, Chelsea are temporarily second behind Arsenal due to the disadvantage of goals scored. Arsenal were on fire in the first two rounds, scoring a total of nine goals, and the attacking firepower led everyone to believe that Arsenal's historic winning streak would continue. The fact that two London clubs are in the top two is what makes London's football journalists buzz. Since the start of the season, the Premier League has been in generally poor form throughout the Premier League. Even Liverpool and Manchester United are in a bit of a slump, and their big names don't seem to be in the groove yet.

In contrast, Chelsea and Arsenal showed overwhelming strength in the first two rounds, which was eye-catching. So much so that some media joked: "This season's Premier League may be a duel between these two London teams." "To all England fans, it was just a joke because no one thought that teams like Manchester United and Liverpool would lose their title contention. However, what they didn't expect was that after the first five rounds of the Premier League had passed, and then looking at the situation in the standings, the joke seemed to be coming true.

In the first five rounds, Manchester United won one, lost one and drew three, accumulating only 6 points. Liverpool's situation is no better, with just one more win than Manchester United, with two wins, two defeats and one draw, earning them just seven points. Such a performance may have been rated as sluggish in the past, but this year it is considered bad. If the Premier League used to be dominated by late-stage development, then this year's Arsenal and Chelsea's performances have completely subverted this tradition. Both teams started the game with five straight wins, picking up 15 points and topping the table. Behind them in third place is the Toffees Everton. However, they have only picked up 10 points, and they are already five points behind Chelsea and Arsenal.

People were surprised to find. There is no need to think about the tenacity of each team anymore. If Manchester United and Liverpool don't make any more efforts, they will be kicked out of the title team early. In this year's Premier League title race, they will only have to be spoilers. Regarding this situation, the Premier League media have said: "These two teams have gone crazy, they are like two mad cows, rushing forward. When the other teams came to their senses, they found that they had been left far behind and that they were on the verge of losing sight of the leader. For a while, English football was all about "who will stop them".

However, to their disappointment. The direct dialogue between these two teams was scheduled for the 17th round. Until then, it is impossible to count on these two winning teams to commit suicide. The media began to look for opponents on the schedule who could end the winning streak of both teams. In the end, they found Arsenal with their sworn rivals Manchester United in the 10th round. And for Chelsea, it is the opponent in the 8th round, the Premier League giants Liverpool.

For the English media, the invincible Arsenal's face is something they can accept, or take for granted. Then Chelsea was born. They were shocked. Chelsea, who they derided as a "club that only knows how to spend money", seems to be really on the rise. In a flash, Chelsea became the most talked-about team in the entire Premier League. Almost all the media and TV shows have started to discuss and analyse the reasons for Chelsea's rise to prominence this season.

In such an atmosphere. Chelsea have their first London derby of the new season against the Premier League's long-established powerhouse, Tottenham Hotspur, known as the White Lily. Although it is said to be a London derby. However, there is no grudge between Chelsea and Tottenham. A real rival to Tottenham. It's Arsenal. Although the goal has always been to surpass the Gunners, the Gunners have always been strong. Tottenham lost to Arsenal in every way. However, this does not detract from Tottenham's reputation as a Premier League powerhouse. As a team that has always adhered to attacking football and technical play, Tottenham Hotspur is still very popular in England. However, their lack of defense is the main reason why their results have not been able to really improve.

Dealing with such a team that is strong in attack and weak in defense is exactly the opponent that Chelsea want to meet the most now. In this game, Mourinho did not play a 4-2-3-1 formation, but put on a 4-3-3 anti-counter-attack formation at home to deal with Tottenham. Although a big offensive battle with Tottenham Hotspur and another victory will make Chelsea fans even happier. But he prefers the latter to the easier it for the team to win.

It was only when the Spurs players began to storm the shrinking Chelsea defence in the heat of the game that they found themselves hitting a concrete wall. Starting with the first line of defence consisting of Didier Drogba, Arjen Robben and Duff, Tottenham found themselves struggling to move an inch as soon as they reached Chelsea's half. At this time, possession and possession have instead become the poisonous apple in the hands of Tottenham, although delicious, but also deadly.

If at the beginning the Chelsea fans were complaining about the team's retreat, they completely forgot about the displeasure soon after the game started and began to cheer with emotion. They were surprised to find that the defensive counterattack could also be played so passionately and so bloody. In the fifth minute of the first half, when Tottenham's many combinations could not be effectively advanced, Mendes began to try to break through with the ball, trying to break the team's deadlock with his individual ability.

However, the back-back partner of Lao Ray and Makelele told him with the cruel truth that this way is not going to work, at least for him Mendes. In the case of Makelle interfering with Mendes closely, Lao Ray suddenly gave up Redklopp's diagonal stab, and easily cut off the football at Mendes' feet with a direct stretch of his foot. Then, after Lao Lei crossed the halfway line with the ball, he directly launched a long pass without waiting for the wild boar Davis to pounce.

A stunning 50-metre thrust on the turf at Stamford Bridge. Like a route measured with a ruler, the pass was like a scalpel, piercing the Tottenham defence to the amazed exclamations of the Chelsea fans. Came to the feet of Drogba. Drogba's footwork isn't flashy, but it's definitely practical. Combined with his strong body, it has terrifying destructive power.

Facing the Tottenham captain. Ledley King, the core of the defense, Drogba directly chose to use his body to eat him. There is a good saying, one force breaks through a thousand ingenuity, and this sentence is very in line with the current scene. Despite his age, Ledley King's wealth of experience is still the cornerstone of Tottenham's defence. However, at this time, he suddenly realized that his experience was of little use. Faced with Drogba's terrifying impact and the old Ray's just right pass. Ledley King's defense was like tissue paper, pierced all at once.

Drogba's violent advance after leading the ball with his left foot made Ledleykin, who did not react, lose his defensive position all of a sudden, and could only watch him easily dribble into the Tottenham penalty area. Drogba is very sure of the one-on-one shot, and his violent volley from close range is almost an unsolvable trick for the goalkeeper. In the face of Drogba's one-on-one meeting, Tottenham's goalkeeper Robinson did not have time to make a save. Football went into the net. With a clear sound of "boom", the sound of Stamford Bridge began to erupt!

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！！！ Didier Drogba!! A violent blow, Robinson had nothing to do. Another super-fast counterattack! Tottenham's defence, nothing but nothing!! Remaier's super straight plug is a sight to behold. How much more does he still have, not on display?! This pass to defeat the White Lily!! ”

After taking the lead. Chelsea were more comfortable on the counter-attack. Tottenham, who have always been known for their enthusiastic attack, don't know what the word convergence means. After the restart. They launched an even harder assault on Chelsea. However, Chelsea's defence was like a spring. The harder you hit, the more bounce it will give you back. This will never change unless you have more impact than it can handle. While there are certainly such teams, Tottenham are not one of them.

In such a situation, the old Lei is very relaxed, and he hardly needs to step forward to help the team attack. All he needs to do is stay in the midfield and use his mid-long pass footwork to dispatch his teammates, and his group of teammates has enough ability to solve battles. In the case of Tottenham's strong attack, Chelsea used a wave of rapid counter-attacks, so that Chelsea fans have been in a climax. The succession of concise and clear counter-attacks gave Chelsea fans a taste of the beauty of football that they had never felt before. Although Ranieri also played defensive counterattacks during the Ranieri period, it was a lethargic counterattack, far less glamorous than it is now.

At this point, the situation is completely in Chelsea's hands. In the 33rd minute of the first half, Chelsea again scored a goal on the counter-attack. After Robbie Keane's long-range shot was blocked by John Terry with his body, Chelsea's counter-attacking mode was back in action. After Lao Lei received Carvalho's pass, he did not allow Tottenham's players to come up and interfere, turned around one and a half, and did not observe the situation in the front court, and directly made a long pass with a big foot. Robben, the Peter Pan from the Netherlands, began to take off again.

After beating Tottenham's right wing-back, a kick back from the edge of the box allowed Frank Lampard to double Chelsea's lead with a powerful long-range shot. Such a game situation made the commentator shake his head and sigh: "Tottenham Hotspur is like meeting their natural enemies when they meet such a Chelsea." Chelsea's defensive footing and super-fast counter-attacks made Tottenham look almost like a non-professional team, too easy. It seems that Tottenham cannot be counted on to stop Chelsea's league progress. ”

In the 61st minute of the second half, after Duff received a through ball from Frank Lampard to extend the score to 3-0, Lao Lei was replaced by Jose Mourinho. Although in this game, Lao Lei did not score, and there was no very gorgeous number jù. But as long as you are a discerning person, you can see that this is another game that is completely controlled by Lao Lei.

In Lineker's words, perhaps the match can be best explained vividly.

It's like, "Remaia crushed Tottenham!" Pass the ball with three feet!! (To be continued......)
