Three games in six days, all in the Premier League. After seeing this schedule, George was completely disappointed with the intelligence of the officials of the Football Association - how stupid do they have to be to arrange such a schedule? !

Although among Tottenham's three opponents, only Chelsea is considered a strong team. Manchester City and Everton are far behind Tottenham in terms of performance and strength. But even so, it is not a comparison of Tottenham's schedule. The reason for such an intensive arrangement - since we knew this was the case, why not set the make-up match between Tottenham and Chelsea in advance at a time when the schedule was relatively loose, but had to wait until April, when the schedule began to become intensive?

If Tottenham's bench is not deep enough, and George has been consciously adopting a rotation strategy to keep all players in a very good competitive state, it would be better to switch to another team with a slightly less deep bench or use a set of If the lineup is to beat the best teams in the world, then I am afraid that this team will probably be deceived by this intensive schedule!

By the way, if we add in the 34th round of the league against Bolton two days later, Tottenham's schedule during this period should be an even more terrifying four games in eight days!

On average, a high-intensity game is played every two days. If UEFA had not clearly stipulated the interval between two consecutive games for the team, George even doubted that these brain-dead children from the Football Association would really learn from the other side of the Atlantic. The NBA has arranged a back-to-back schedule for Tottenham!

However, although the eight-day four-match schedule produced by the Football Association makes Tottenham feel extremely depressed, but compared to Chelsea on the other side, Tottenham is still quite lucky. Because as long as Tottenham can survive this period, until the end of the season, Tottenham's game frequency will be one game a week as normal. [爱↑去△小↓说△网wqu] And what about Chelsea? They have one more Champions League to play than Tottenham, so what awaits Chelsea is naturally an even more terrifying schedule - six games in sixteen days!

You know, compared with Tottenham, who have already reached the FA Cup final and currently only need to concentrate on preparing for the league, Chelsea still has to face the challenge of Monaco in the Champions League. At this time, no one dares to underestimate this team led by Deschamps and composed of discarded players from various clubs - if anyone still dares to look down on Monaco, then Real Madrid's corpse is a lesson for them!

Therefore, facing such a schedule, even Chelsea, whose bench is the deepest in the Premier League, can't help but feel very troubled. Because as long as one is not careful, the Blues are likely to fall into the abyss of eternal destruction!

In this regard, Ranieri was naturally extremely angry at first. After all, with such a schedule, Chelsea would have to drag a layer of skin even if they did not die. But soon, the tinker reluctantly put away his plan to appeal to the Football Association and request that the thirty-round make-up match with Tottenham be postponed - because after Kenyon's reminder, Ranie Leigh has realized that the reason why the Football Association arranged the game in this way is actually to target Chelsea, which has risen strongly this season!

Although under the exaggeration of the media, the Football Association has always been famous in European football for being conservative and brainless, but since they can sit in this position, it shows that these Football Association officials are still somewhat capable. There cannot be any reason. If not, a bunch of things will happen inexplicably. Therefore, the FA arranged such a terrifying schedule for Chelsea at a critical moment this time, just to punish Chelsea for poaching around last summer and disrupting the transfer market and the order of English football!

It can be said that the reason why Tottenham has such a sad schedule during this period is mainly because it was cheated by its ally Chelsea. If the FA is also interested in cracking down on Tottenham, then Tottenham's opponent in these games cannot be only a strong team like Chelsea.

Of course, George knew this very well. However, although he knows that Tottenham has just become the gun used by the FA to attack Chelsea, this does not mean that George will acquiesce to the FA's behavior of using himself and Tottenham as a gun—— Haoda is also the first heir to the current Viscount Koscielt and Earl of Essex. The FA used Tottenham to attack Chelsea without saying a word. Do you really think that the Nelson family will not get angry? !

Therefore, in order to appease the dissatisfaction of the Nelson and Hood families, the Football Association had to quickly send someone to apologize to George in a roundabout way, and at the same time hinted that it would give Tottenham certain preferential treatment when arranging the schedule for next season, and We will seriously deal with the phenomenon of home whistle and partial whistle blowing, so that more serious consequences will not occur.

George is quite satisfied with the FA's statement. After all, Tottenham will also face a four-front battle next season. With this guarantee from the Football Association, Tottenham can be more relaxed in domestic competitions and focus more on the European competition.

Although the FA is unreliable in many things, its integrity is still guaranteed. The most important thing is that the FA should not dare to break its promise, otherwise it will undoubtedly risk angering the Nelson and Hood families. And this is obviously something the FA is unwilling to face.

In this way, three days passed in a hurry. On the evening of April 15th, George led the Tottenham team to welcome the blue team Chelsea who came to challenge at White Hart Lane!

Due to the deep historical connection between the two clubs and the private partnership between George and Abramovich, although this game can be regarded as a strong dialogue, the atmosphere of the game is not very strong - —After all, with Arsenal having basically secured the league title and fifth-placed Liverpool finding it difficult to catch up with the top four teams in the standings, Chelsea and Tottenham can basically be said to have no desire in the Premier League at this time. Nothing to ask for. As a result, the atmosphere of this game naturally became less tense.

In fact, if it weren't for taking care of the emotions of fans and sponsors, as well as the so-called face issues of wealthy clubs (although Chelsea is not yet a wealthy club), Ranieri would have even given up several games, including this game. For the league war, he is concentrating on preparing for the Champions League semi-finals with Monaco next midday - with no hope of the league championship, only by leading the team to win the Champions League this season can Ranieri have hope of retaining his position as coach. Otherwise, by the end of this season, the tinker will definitely have to pack up and leave.

Ranieri's thinking is naturally well reflected in his formation in this game - in this game, many players including Crespo, Terry, Makelele and others None of the main players entered the starting lineup. Tinker's move is enough to reflect his attitude towards this game!

Goalkeeper Ambrosio, right back Glen Johnson, center back French veteran Desailly and German teenager Robert Huth, left back Bridge, midfielder Gremi, Lampard and Scott Parker. The four-man group and the offensive trident are the combination of Hasselbaink, Mutu and Grenjaer. This is Chelsea's starting lineup in this game!

It can be seen from the arrangement of the starting lineup that Ranieri has no intention of fighting Tottenham. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Tinkerers to put all Terry and others on the bench when they are not sick or suffering from illness, and even the goalkeeper was replaced by Ambrosio, who has not played a few times. After all, due to one game less, Chelsea, which has been winless for two consecutive rounds in the league, is already one point behind Manchester United and has fallen to third place in the standings. Therefore, if Ranieri really wants to keep the second place in the standings, then It is impossible to field such a starting lineup.

Now let’s take a look at Tottenham. Since there is still a league game against Bolton to be played in two days, and the players have become very tired due to the previous continuous battles, in order to ensure the health of the players and avoid injuries due to excessive fatigue, George In this game, the starting lineup will continue to be rotated extensively.

"It seems that this summer we not only need to consider deepening the depth of the team's bench, but also need to further strengthen the health care of the players." Sitting on the coaching bench on the sidelines, George secretly thought about what else Tottenham needed. strengthen. Among them, establishing a complete physical therapy system is an aspect that he attaches great importance to - after witnessing Redknapp spending half of a season in the hospital bed and the remaining half of the time recovering. , George has put this matter on the agenda and is waiting for the end of the season to implement it.

Tottenham's starting eleven for this game is: goalkeeper Casey Keller, the four defenders from left to right are Stephen Carr, Ledley King, Michael Dawson and Heinze, Kompany He and Speed ​​formed a double midfielder, with Basturk taking command in the center, David Villa and Ronaldo on the left and right wings, and Drogba as the starting center!

To be honest, George took a considerable risk by fielding such a starting lineup. Because George is betting that Ranieri will not let Chelsea spend too much in this strong dialogue for the so-called face and league rankings, so once the tinker's mind has not turned around, he will send the main force in this game. In terms of lineup, Tottenham is likely to lose this strong dialogue, and then lose this best opportunity to improve the league ranking!

The final result proved that George's gamble was successful. Under the pressure of performance and coaching position, Ranieri chose to strategically abandon the league and concentrate his forces on the Champions League!

Ranieri also paid a corresponding price for his choice. After all, although Chelsea's bench depth is equally strong, Tottenham sent a starting lineup with a mix of main players and substitutes in this game, which completely overwhelmed Chelsea, which had only two main players on the field!

In this way, when the first half of the game ended, Tottenham, playing at home, successfully entered the halftime period with a one-goal lead thanks to Drogba's goal in the 15th minute of the game!
