The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 168
168 Act Tough When It’s Time to Act Tough
The Chelsea players were also interviewed by media reporters, first and foremost Captain Terry!
Terry, who has played for Chelsea since childhood, took over the captain’s armband this season and officially became Chelsea’s captain.
Speaking to reporters, Terry said: “Perhaps Leeds United have had a lot of talk recently and have a lot of attention. But they are still far from being Chelsea. They won’t have a chance in this game because we will go all out!”
Terry also said: “And our boss gave a death order that this match must be won!”
The rest of the Chelsea players echoed in unison, and they were determined to go all out in this match!
The reporters all smiled. This time, Leeds United was in trouble!
Chelsea midfielder Claude Makelele told reporters: “This is just an ordinary game for Chelsea and we are confident we can win. After all, the opponents are from the Champions League.”
Chelsea are now the leaders of the Premier League and they can speak in such an arrogant manner.
Makelele added: “Las Diarra? I’ve heard of him, but I’ve never seen him. I’ve never seen him play football. As for Makelele II, I don’t think that’s necessary. He’s no substitute for anyone, he’s just himself!”
Media reporters were delighted. It turned out that Makelele did not think that Las Diarra was worthy of being called “Makelele II”. Makelele looked down on Las Diarra very much.
Chelsea striker Gudjohnsen also told reporters: “I believe we can win this game and we have the strength.” “Not only that, we have to finish the game as soon as possible because our focus is always on the league. The league is very tense and we don ‘t have to waste too much energy on a game like this!
Gudjohnsen’s words were another critical strike. Chelsea did not put Leeds United in their eyes at all. They did not want to expend much effort!
The reporters laughed heartily. Gary Arnold Hisith was in a good mood and very happy!
Chelsea’s players also have the same calibre, that is, this match, their Chelsea will definitely win easily!
The Chelsea men are confident that their victory in this game is already in their pockets.

February 28, 2005, New Wembley Stadium, England!
It was the last day of February and the Carling Cup final was coming up against Premier League leaders Chelsea and Champions League leaders Leeds United, a war between the leaders of the two sheep flocks!
The Chelsea fans wore blue home shirts that covered the entire stadium, almost all of them blue oceans. The Chelsea fans are very imposing and ferocious. The Chelsea fans are really happy and excited. Now they are the happiest fans in the world.
More than two years ago they were a team with £ 80 m in debt on the verge of collapse. But two years later, they have become the richest team in the Premier League, the leader of the Premier League, they are really too happy, too excited, crazy singing, enthusiastic shouting, to welcome another Chelsea champion!
Today, there were many Leeds United fans present!
Yes, today a large group of Leeds United fans came to Wembley Stadium in their home white shirts. In the midst of the team’s desperate situation, Leeds United were able to make it to the Carling Cup final. This really touched them and made them very happy.
At this time, the Leeds fans were all shouting crazily, supporting Leeds head coach Zhong Cheng, cheering and singing loudly,
“We have the crazy Roja,
We’re not afraid of anything!
All the Leeds fans came to keep up with Roja,
Let’s go to the end of the world together,
To create the most beautiful prosperity of our time! ”
At this time, many Leeds United fans returned to this group, unconditionally supporting their captain and singing for Zhong Chenggao for the rise of Leeds United!

This final was a contest between two sheep. Naturally, it attracted the attention of many media reporters. Was it the top sheep of the Premier League or the top sheep of the Champions League? Everyone wanted to know the answer!
The reporters were in the press gallery, quietly waiting for the start of the match.
Gary Arnold Hisith said confidently: “Leeds United are lucky to be able to make it to this point. They have no chance against Chelsea now. Watch Leeds United lose this game!”
Many of the reporters in the stands nodded in agreement. They also thought the same!
Gary Arnold Hisith added: “Leeds United are doing very well.” However, it is clear that Leeds United are on the verge of collapse. As far as I know, Ferguson has already made an offer for Pique and Ribery. Wenger wants to capture all the French players in Leeds United. Now that he has received news from Leeds United, you can see that the Leeds United Players Supermarket will open at the end of this season.
Gary Arnold Hisith’s words were very clear, and the other reporters were also flattering him, wanting to get more information from Gary Arnold Hisith, which made Gary Arnold Hisith very happy.
Kelly Fox’s face was tense and her expression was cold as she stared at Gary Arnold Hisith and thought to herself, “Rumor! Damn it, unscrupulous fellow! Humph!”
However, Kelly Fox was also a little worried. Could these promising young stars from Leeds United really resist the temptation of those wealthy families?
At this moment, Kelly Fox did not know how many players would leave Leeds United next season!
Ai!

The atmosphere in the dressing room of the Leeds United Club was very serious.
Zhong Cheng’s eyes were fixed on the players of Leeds United. The players of Leeds United all looked up at Zhong Cheng, waiting for Zhong Cheng’s instructions.
Zhong Cheng could tell that his players were full of fighting spirit!
Zhong Cheng was very satisfied. He nodded and said, “You should know what the Chelsea man told the press before the game, right?”
The Leeds United players frowned, their faces extremely ugly.
“It seems like you already know! They look down on us and think that we are a Champions League team, so they can freely humiliate us. They even think that we are not worth mentioning in front of them. They say that we are doomed to lose this match … What do you think?” Zhong Cheng said.
Ribery’s hometown slang broke out: “Holy shit, shit! A bunch of arrogant garbage. Their Chelsea team is a goner. If they dare to come, I’ll kill him in minutes!”
Zimbonda snorted coldly, “Humph! A bunch of trash whose mouths are stronger than PY. No one knows who’s stronger than Tamar.”
‘”They will pay a heavy price for their arrogance, I promise!” Sagna shouted.
“Their arrogance is not necessarily a bad thing for us. We can use their underestimation to teach them a lesson and make their faces fall to the ground forever, never to be picked up again!” Pick said calmly.
Ribery and the others felt that Peeker’s words were very energetic, and they all howled excitedly.
The midfielder pressed down with both hands and the Leeds players instantly quieted down. There was not a single noise in the dressing room.
“Steven Gerrard is right. Their underestimation is our chance to teach them a lesson,” Zhong Cheng said. “That’s why we have to attack them at the beginning of the match and show them how wrong they are!”
The Leeds United players nodded to show they understood.
Zhong Cheng also said: “According to their urination before the game, they will definitely have a lot of substitutes in this game. This is our chance! However, you can’t let down your guard. Even if they are Chelsea’s substitutes, their strength is still very strong!”
The Leeds United players became serious!
“You have to be 100 per cent serious in the game. We can’t make any mistakes or I’ll be a joke in Chelsea’s eyes. I don’t want to be a joke. We have to make Chelsea a joke!” Zhong said.
Leeds United players roared excitedly, “Make the Chelsea guys a joke! Make them a joke!”
Zhong Cheng added: “The championship is right in front of us. The chance to create miracles and create history is right in front of us. You will be remembered for your history. You will be the backdrop for Chelsea to reach the top. This is the match.”
The players of Leeds United held their heads high as they stared at Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng said, “Whether you become famous or become someone else’s stepping stone is up to you! I hope that your performance will not make you regret it in the future!”
The Leeds players stood up and roared, “Don’t worry, boss, we’re going to win!”

The atmosphere in Chelsea’s dressing room was much more relaxed.
Although Jos é Mourinho’s expression was still very serious, he did not feel any nervousness.
Mourinho said: “This game is definitely not a difficult one for us. In the Premier League, we have seen stronger opponents and we have seen more difficult opponents, so I don’t think there will be any problems for you in this game, right?”
The Chelsea players nodded seriously and said: “Yes, boss! Don’t worry, we will definitely take our opponents seriously! We don’t want to be a joke!”
Jose Mourinho nodded and said: “Yes, that’s right, that’s the way it is!”
Jose Mourinho continued: “There are some good players in the Leeds RUF but they are still very young. However, you still have to be careful not to let them cause any trouble, you know?”
The Chelsea players nodded confidently.
Jose Mourinho was pleased and said: “In conclusion, I would like to remind you not to underestimate our opponents. We have to go all out in every game! We must not act tough in the game, only after the game can we act tough, understand?”
The Chelsea players roared, “Understood!”
Mourinho waved his hand and said, “Alright, let’s go!”
