Tottenham defeated Chelsea with a goal at home and won the league's first four consecutive victories. With their goal difference, they defeated Manchester United, who had the same points as them, and continued to lead the league standings. As soon as this news came out, the entire English football world couldn't help but be shocked!
Prior to this, although Tottenham had achieved an excellent start with three consecutive victories in the Premier League, scoring nine goals and not conceding a goal, many people still believed that they had given away Ribery and Bastoure. Tottenham, which has many capable players such as Gram, is still not as strong as Chelsea and Manchester United, which have been recruiting heavily in the summer. The reason why Tottenham can beat the Blues and Red Devils in the standings is mainly because George's team takes advantage of the schedule, not because Tottenham is really stronger than Chelsea and Manchester United!
Therefore, before the start of this game, many people believed that Tottenham's winning streak was about to be ended by Chelsea. Although the Blues have been at a disadvantage in direct confrontations with Tottenham in the past two seasons, this is only a matter of the past. After successively introducing strong players such as Franck Ribery, Wright-Phillips, Essien, Maniche and Del Horno, the Blues have greatly strengthened their overall strength and bench depth compared with last season. Under the circumstances, Mourinho's team may not be able to defeat Tottenham!
However, reality gave a very loud slap in the face to all those who doubted Tottenham's strength. Throughout the game, even with the help of the referee in the first half, Chelsea failed to break through the goal guarded by Cech. However, Tottenham were able to reverse the situation in an extremely passive situation, seize the few opportunities to score, and then Won this powerful conversation!
Such a stark contrast made all fans who watched this game feel this way. That is, as long as George is still coaching Tottenham, Chelsea will never be able to defeat Tottenham!
However, most fans did not pay attention to the news that Tottenham defeated Chelsea and continued to sit at the top of the league. At this time, they had been completely attracted by another piece of news - after the game against Tottenham, Mourinho openly expressed his dissatisfaction with the referee Steady in front of a group of reporters at the press conference. He was strongly dissatisfied with Thomas, believing that the referee helped Tottenham "steal" a victory that should have belonged to Chelsea!
Mourinho dares to say this, and naturally he has something to rely on. Indeed, in the game that just ended, the most eye-catching thing was not Ronaldo who made the penalty kick and scored it himself, nor was it Cech who made several wonderful saves to keep the goal open, but was the one who served as the goalkeeper. Stairs officiating. If it weren't for his inconsistent enforcement standards during the game, then Del Horno would not have been sent off with a red card in the second half, Chelsea would not have one less person to fight, and Ronaldo would not have made and scored that penalty A penalty kick determines the outcome of the game!
Of course, Mourinho's remarks were not recognized by most people except die-hard Chelsea fans. Because everyone who has watched this game knows what a huge advantage Chelsea had in the first half!
You failed to seize the opportunity when the penalty was in your favor. As a result, Tottenham gave Tottenham a chance to make the final decision in the second half. You still scolded the referee after the game. Mourinho, you are a bit too double-standard, right?
Although Mourinho successfully diverted people's attention in this way so that his players did not have to bear too much pressure due to this defeat, his behavior also brought some problems to himself and Chelsea. Negative impact. As we all know, the FA and the Refereeing Committee never like to have outsiders criticize them or make public accusations. Therefore, Mourinho's statement is bound to arouse strong dissatisfaction among the top executives of the two companies!
We can't control big guys like Ferguson and George, let alone offend them. Why, Mourinho, a rookie coach with no foundation at all, dare to accuse our people? You speak so categorically, have you never benefited from this? !
It is foreseeable that Chelsea will probably be targeted and made things difficult by the FA and the Referee Committee for a long time to come!
Let’s stop talking about the turmoil caused by Mourinho. Now let’s turn our attention back to Tottenham. After defeating Chelsea, George gave the players a day off, and then took a special plane to Monaco to participate in the Champions League group draw scheduled to be held tomorrow!
This time, in addition to Elizabeth and Adele, George was accompanied by many Tottenham players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Alonso, Ledley King and Cech. Because after the Champions League group draw ceremony is over, it is UEFA’s annual awards ceremony! Cristiano Ronaldo, Alonso and others are strong contenders for major awards including UEFA Player of the Year!
At George's suggestion, the UEFA Player of the Year award appeared in this world six years earlier than in its previous life. Different from the European Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year, which are selected at the end of the year, the UEFA Player of the Year selection mechanism is obviously more in line with the current situation of European football (most of the mainstream European football competitions are multi-year competitions). A player's performance over the past season can be better evaluated, and the selection results are more easily accepted by fans.
You know, the European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer, which are based on players' performance throughout the year, have encountered this. For example, Ronaldo in 2002, who was basically recovering from injuries in the first half of the year, just relied on his wonderful performance in seven games of the World Cup in Korea and Japan to defeat Roberto Carlos, who was in excellent form throughout the year.
As the winner of the Big Ears Cup last season, Tottenham is very likely to be the biggest winner in this selection. After all, although there are many players who are not inferior to Alonso and others in terms of team honors and personal performance, except for Barcelona, the three top giants, Bayern, Juventus and AC Milan, all lost to the Champions League in direct competition. Tottenham, causing their players to lose a lot of points in this selection; while Barcelona stopped in the top 16 of the Champions League, making Ronaldinho's hope of winning this award very slim!
Therefore, when going to Monaco this time, George is not worried that Tottenham will end up with nothing at the awards ceremony. At this time, what he is most worried about is still the fate of Tottenham in this draw ceremony!
Although you are the defending champion of the Champions League, due to the fact that Tottenham received too few European points in previous years, this time, Tottenham can only participate in the group draw ceremony as a third-tier team. The results of this classification naturally aroused strong dissatisfaction and high vigilance from other clubs!
