Yes, Tong 1's attention is currently focused on the upcoming English League Cup final.
Crystal Palace will face Chelsea at the new Wembley Stadium.
This is almost a home game for both teams.
Because the new Wembley Stadium is in London.
This is also the London derby in the English League Cup final.
Of course, this day was originally supposed to be the 27th round of the 2014-2015 Premier League season. Crystal Palace would face West Ham United away from home, and Chelsea would play Leicester City away from home. However, because of this game, both games were adjusted and rescheduled.
The two Premier League games in Round 27 between Crystal Palace and Chelsea will be rescheduled to April 30, 2015.
Therefore, Tong 1's attention is now entirely on the English League Cup at the weekend.
This game is crucial.
Of course, countless media reporters and fans are paying attention to this game.
This is not only the League Cup final, but also a preview of Crystal Palace and Chelsea in the league.
The two teams are currently very motivated to compete for the Premier League title. The two teams are still only one point apart. Even Chelsea just missed an excellent opportunity to surpass Crystal Palace and regain the top spot in the Premier League last weekend.
Until now, Chelsea fans have not yet calmed down.
This opportunity was missed, which really made them feel very regretful.
Super sorry!
As for this game, Chelsea fans hope that the Chelsea team can lose again. They want to see Chelsea's advantage and strength against Crystal Palace, and they don't want to see Crystal Palace have any chance.
Chelsea fans all hope that Chelsea must win this game.
Moreover, Chelsea fans are also full of confidence in this game.
Chelsea fans believe in their team.
Of course, media reporters all want to know what Chelsea coach Mourinho thinks.
When Mourinho was interviewed by media reporters, he said: "Crystal Palace is very strong. Even if we at Chelsea face them, we are not 100% confident in defeating them. However, for now, I still I am more confident. Crystal Palace's recent state has been very bad. The consecutive draws and losses have already shown the problem. There is a problem with the physical fitness of the Crystal Palace people. For a team with this style of play, there is a problem with physical fitness. That’s almost out of the question. So, I think Chelsea has a huge advantage whether it’s in the league or the next EFL Cup final, and we Chelsea should be able to win this game.”
It can be seen that Mourinho is really confident, rather than giving confidence to his team's players.
However, Mourinho is also right in saying that there is indeed a problem with Crystal Palace's recent state.
They have lost one and drawn one in the last two games, which is a very bad result.
Crystal Palace must have encountered problems with such results.
If there is a problem at Crystal Palace, isn't this an opportunity for Chelsea?
Reporters from the media think so too, but Chelsea's recent state is also unstable.
Last weekend, they had a very good opportunity, but they failed to grasp it and were directly tied by the newly promoted team. Isn’t this a problem for Chelsea?
Faced with the doubts of media reporters, Mourinho said: "We at Chelsea actually have no problems now. The draw in the last round was actually a little bit unlucky. We did not let our opponents force us at the last moment. Is it a tie? That game was an accident. Of course, our players were a little too focused and their mentality was a little tight, so they missed an excellent opportunity! However, now we have adjusted well, which is good, we are confident Perfect!"
The media reporters all looked at each other and nodded, feeling that Mourinho was right.
At this time, media reporters are actually more optimistic about Chelsea.
Whether in terms of recent form or experience, Chelsea is much better than Crystal Palace. Therefore, Chelsea's chances of winning this game are actually much greater.
Adriana suddenly asked: "Mr. Mourinho, have you Chelsea figured out a way to defend Ignacio?"
Although this guy Ignacio is very young, he is a full threat.
You see, in last weekend's game, even when facing the defenses of Koscielny and Mertesacker, he had an advantage. Chelsea don't have a central defender like Mertesacker. What's more important is that Terry is old and Cahill is still injured. How can Chelsea fight against Ignacio?
Last time in the league, when Chelsea lost to Crystal Palace, wasn't it because Su was still in Ignacio's body?
If this problem is not solved, it will still be difficult for Chelsea to defeat Crystal Palace.
Mourinho smiled slightly and said: "Ignacio is indeed very capable, but he is too young. He is seriously lacking in experience. I believe our John can contain him. And we have He has also made special arrangements. In this game, he will not get a good chance. In this game, we at Chelsea must win!"
Obviously, the media reporters are still a little dissatisfied.
Because, after Mourinho said so much, he didn't seem to get to the point. He didn't say how they would defend Ignacio?
However, media reporters can also understand that if Mourinho wants to say this, can't Crystal Palace make immediate adjustments and special arrangements?
Tactical secrecy is a must.
However, Adriana and others still don't believe it, because this Ignacio is really difficult to defend.
Moreover, the crosses from the two wingers of Crystal Palace are still very good. Once they pass the ball from the two wingers, it is really difficult for Chelsea to contain Ignacio in the penalty area!
Therefore, Crystal Palace fans are still full of confidence in this game.
At this time, media reporters also wanted to interview Mourinho and Chelsea players, but unfortunately Mourinho refused. He has already said more, and there are some things that cannot be said anymore.
The media reporters had no choice but to let Mourinho and the Chelsea people go for the time being.
They immediately changed direction and rushed to the Crystal Palace to interview people from the Crystal Palace.
The first person to bear the brunt is naturally Crystal Palace head coach Tong Yi.
Facing the interview with media reporters, Tong 1 said: "You are right, Chelsea is indeed a very strong team. Their abilities and tactics are first-rate. It is actually very difficult for us at Crystal Palace to defeat them. Especially with the presence of Mourinho, this guy is experienced and difficult to deal with."
Indeed, Mourinho is indeed very difficult to deal with.
Mourinho has faced a lot of tough battles, and has rich experience in the Europa League and Champions League. Such a guy is an old man and is really not easy to deal with at all.
Even Tong Yi doesn't dare to underestimate this guy, but takes him very seriously.
Tong 1 also said: "Mourinho has built Chelsea to perfection. Now this Chelsea is actually a championship team, which is really difficult to deal with! Our biggest competitor of Crystal Palace this season is their Chelsea team. , we are not 100% sure of defeating them. So this game will be very difficult."
This is not a compliment from Tong Yi, this is his sincerity!
In Tong Yi's memory, Chelsea did win the final Premier League championship this season, with 87 points. Although these points are not particularly high, they are ahead of the second-placed Manchester City team by as many as 9 points this season. Therefore, Chelsea is still very strong this season.
Tong 1 really doesn't dare to underestimate Chelsea at all.
Facing questions from media reporters, Tong 1 also said: "Of course, you are right. Jose is still a strong point of our Crystal Palace. In our last match against Chelsea, Jose was indeed the biggest Hero. In this game, Jose is still our main offensive direction for Crystal Palace, so this is also a suppression for Chelsea. If Chelsea cannot handle Jose's problem well, our Crystal Palace will win this game. The odds are high.”
Adriana and others also think so.
It's true. With Ignacio's height and weight, this confrontation would be really troublesome if Chelsea really didn't think of a way.
However, it seems that Mourinho has a solution, but it's a pity that he didn't say it.
Adriana and others raised this question to Tong 1.
Tong 1 said directly: "It's certain that Mourinho can think of a way. After all, they are so good and powerful. They have been in football for such a long time and have won so many honors. This person must be There are ways, but our Crystal Palace is not afraid. In addition to Jose, our Crystal Palace has many other means. In order to win this game, our Crystal Palace has made complete preparations."
The media reporters were very surprised. The Crystal Palace was fully prepared?
So what else is there to play in this game? You guys have anticipated all the problems. Does Chelsea still have a chance? Is there still a need to play in this game? How about giving the award directly to your Crystal Palace?
This guy Tong 1 likes to talk big.
In fact, media reporters are still not very optimistic about Crystal Palace. Ignacio does have a great advantage. But his experience is indeed a shortcoming. Facing Chelsea's veterans, Ignacio may not be able to take advantage.
In this game, it’s really hard to say who will win and who will lose?
