May 19, 2007, New Wembley Stadium, London, England.

“Alright, now that the players from both sides are on the pitch, let’s introduce the starting lineup for today.” Mark Lawrenson said immediately.

The starting lineup for today is as follows:

Team: Chelsea, Coach: José Mourinho, Formation: 4-3-3

Goalkeeper: Peter Cech

Fourth Guards “Left to Right”: Ashley Cole, John Terry, Ricardo Carvalho and Paul Ferreira

Three midfielders “left to right”: Lampard, Makelele and Essien

Three strikers “left to right”: Salomon Kalou, Didier Drogba and Arjen Robben

This is Chelsea’s starting lineup for today, and there are no surprises as they play all of their main teams in the back line. The surprise came from the midfield, where Russ Diarra and Michael Ballack were not on the starting line-up, but Essien started, which was a bit of a surprise.

In the front line is still a combination that José Mourinho would like to use, yes, he is not willing to use Andrei Shevchenko even with a youngster like Salomon Kalou. And before the game, Abramovich had already kissed Andrei Shevchenko for the start. However, now that José Mourinho had directly slapped Abramovich in the face, the conflict between the two of them had already become transparent.

Chelsea fans sighed indifferently when they saw this. It seems that Chelsea Football Club is really going to be in turmoil. Obviously, none of this is what Chelsea fans would like to see.

Team: Leeds United, Coach: Zhong Zheng, Formation: 4-2-3-1

Goalkeeper: Zhong Zheng

Fourth Guards “Left to Right”: Patrick Evra, Gerard Pique, Compani and Gary Kelly

Double waist: Alexander Song and Albertini

Three avant-garde “Left to Right”: Frank Ribery, Joan Gourcuff and Joaquin

Single forward: Luca Toni

Leeds United’s lineup has changed dramatically today, with right-back Sagna not starting but starting veteran Gary Kelly. This change was unexpected, but it was reasonable.

Because, more than half a month ago, Gary Kelly made it clear that he would retire at the end of the season and that Gary Kelly would bid farewell to professional football. This is the last game of Gary Kelly’s career, Zhong Cheng let him start is very human, this will be Gary Kelly’s curtain call farewell battle.

Albertini, who started in midfield, was also like Gary Kelly!

Albertini will also retire at the end of the season, Actually, Albertini was in a semi-retired state this season. He was the interior player and coach of the Leeds United Club. Most of the time, he appeared as a coach. Albertini did not play more than double-digit games this season. All of the games added together, he only played seven games.

The reason Albertini started today was the same as Gary Kelly, it was their farewell performance.

Zhong Cheng’s starting line-up was really very human. The Leeds United fans were very excited. They cheered for Gary Kelly and Albertini and even cried out in tears.

Of course, there were quite a few people who shouted Zhong Cheng’s name, but most of them were beautiful fans.

Today, Zhong Cheng had changed the formation from 4-1-3-2 to 4-2-3-1, obviously for Albertini’s sake, but also to put on a defensive counter-attack posture.

Of course, this is also the cause of Mascherano’s injury, and Mascherano will soon not belong to Leeds United. It is said that he is going to move to Liverpool, Zhong Cheng must make preparations.

In the new season, Zhong Cheng naturally needed to bring in a right-back and one to two defenders.

Today, Leeds United’s defensive line also changed, with Joan Gourcuff appearing on the starting line-up and Luca Modric on the bench, a change that many couldn’t understand.

Zhong Cheng put his hands in his pockets and stood on the sidelines.

Zhong Cheng did not have the habit of chewing gum. He stood there quietly, straight like a statue, motionless. His upright posture made countless beautiful fans drool …

José Mourinho sat steadily on the coaching bench and watched the match calmly.

For any reason, José Mourinho is hoping to win the game, whether he leaves Chelsea or not.

José Mourinho immediately turned his head to look at Zhong Cheng, who was standing at the side of the arena, and raised his eyebrows.

–Division Line–

Bang!

A crystal clear goblet smashed fiercely onto the ground, instantly shattering into pieces, glass slag splashing everywhere!

“Holy shit! What the hell is that fucking Portuguese doing? Why isn’t Andrei on the starting line-up? What the hell is he doing in Tama?” A roar like an angry lion exploded in the VIP room, causing the entire room to tremble three times.

“Don’t be angry, Mr. Chairman. Don’t you know this guy’s conduct? Tucker won’t listen to you!” A voice that sounded somewhat low said.

The duo are Chelsea Football Club president Sven-Goran Abramovich and executive CEO John Kenyon.

Abramovich was furious when he saw Chelsea’s starting lineup. This damn José Mourinho actually turned a deaf ear to his words again. Why would he rather use a young boy like Salomon Kalou than give the European striker Andrei Shevchenko a chance back then?

Didn’t this damn guy hear him say that Andriy Shevchenko had to start this game?

Abramovich’s expression was extremely ugly, as gloomy as water.

It can be seen that Abramovich has already put up with it to the limit. It seems that José Mourinho really won’t be staying at Chelsea Football Club for long.

Kenyon immediately said: “Sir, Mourinho’s character is like this, as if he is the owner of the Chelsea team, without the slightest bit of self-knowledge. On the contrary, he still feels that he is incomparably smart, he is God’s number one, his number two master, how can he listen to us mortals!”

Of course, Kenyon was so glorious when he joined the Chelsea team. He could be said to be above everyone else. The feeling of power in his hands made him feel elated and very enjoyable. At that time, he seemed to have the whole world, the first season he came to Chelsea was the most comfortable season for Kenyon. Because he was in charge that season, he was almost in charge of the club.

But after arriving from José Mourinho, his position as Kenyon was somewhat awkward. Not only has he lost a lot of his power to José Mourinho, but he has to listen more to José Mourinho’s advice at the club, which has made him dissatisfied.

Kenyon’s position at Chelsea is really awkward and he’s tired of it.

Now that José Mourinho and Abramovich were in such a state, he was naturally happy to see them succeed. It was very pleasant. It was best if he could get rid of this fellow José Mourinho. This would be perfect, completely perfect.

Now that Kenyon is only mentioning José Mourinho to Abramovich a little, Abramovich’s opinion of José Mourinho will get bigger and bigger.

Of course, Kenyon also knew how to be discreet. There were some things that didn’t need to be said too much, just a little bit was enough.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Abramovich’s expression became even uglier.

Bang! Abramovich landed on the table again. He was really angry.

Abramovich said calmly, “Does the current Chelsea Football Club only know about José Mourinho and not about me, Abramovich?”

Kenyon pondered for a moment and said weakly, “I really don’t know that? You do. I’m basically by your side. You don’t even know. How would I know?”

Abramovich turned to look at Kenyon and nodded for a while before saying, “Yes, I promised the Portuguese too much power, which led to today’s unmanageable situation. Don’t worry, I will add some burdens to you when the next coach comes!”

Kenyon’s eyes lit up and he asked in surprise, “Mr. Chairman, have you really decided to change your faculty?”

Abramovich looked at the field and nodded. Kenyang’s eyes were the same, and he was delighted in his heart.

–Division Line–

On the field, the referee looked at the players on both sides who were standing in their positions and did not notice any accidents. Then, he directly blew his whistle, “Pu!”

“Alright, the referee of this match blew the whistle at the beginning of the match!” Said Mark Lawrenson.

The first to kick off was Chelsea in blue, who attacked from the right side of the screen to the left. Leeds United, on the other hand, wore a white home shirt today, attacking from the left side of the screen to the right.

However, it was clear that Leeds United did not show any signs of attacking at the start of the game.

Leeds United had a defensive counter-attack from the start, with even Luca Tony standing close to the center lap and even returning to his own half to defend.

This made the Chelsea players frown.

Since Chelsea Football Club is also a defensive counter-attack tactic, Leeds United will find it difficult to defend against Leeds United without attacking. The Leeds United defence is very tight and intact, and it is not easy for Chelsea to tear through Leeds United’s defence.

However, Leeds United and Chelsea’s counter-attack is not the same.

Leeds United’s defensive tactics relied on a strong overall defense, strong oppression, and ferocious overall close-up to carry out a strong defense. Leeds United’s defensive front was relatively close to the back, almost all of them in their own half of the court. On the other hand, Chelsea’s defense was more like a high-pitched close-up defense, striving to directly cut off the ball on the spot, relying on the high-speed passing and lightning speed of three or four people in the front court to surprise the opponent.

Now, Chelsea control the players, they are slowly moving forward to attack.

The Chelsea men know that they have to attack at this time. The Chelsea man probed the attack and the football moved to the winger Arjen Robben. Arjen Robben hadn’t caught the football when he was fiercely pressed against it. Arjen Robben staggered and almost lost his footing.

Arjen Robben’s eyebrows furrowed. The Leeds United’s defense was simply too strong. It was the last thing Arjen Robben wanted to see. Every time he played against Leeds United, his performance wasn’t particularly good. He always felt as if a pair of invisible hands had grabbed his throat, causing him to feel extremely uncomfortable.
