Super Marshal

The Blue Army Dynasty is born!

This is the headline on the front page of the major British media after Chelsea won the league championship in advance.

Streak, or streak!

I still remember that at the beginning of the season, many British media and fans were pessimistic about Gao Han’s coaching prospects. No matter what their motives were behind them, they didn’t think that Gao Han would succeed at Chelsea, let alone continue the glory of Atletico Madrid. Peak.

But now, they have to admit that they were wrong.

And it was so wrong!

Coaching Chelsea, Gao Han not only continued the glory of Atletico Madrid, but also made Chelsea win consecutive victories, winning the League Cup and the Premier League successively, and maintained a strong competition for the FA Cup and UEFA Cup. The quadruple crown is in sight .

This is a great feat unprecedented in the history of the Premier League!

Houllier won the five crowns in Liverpool that year, which shocked the entire European football world, but it was won in two seasons, including the UEFA Cup, FA Cup and League Cup, and the following The Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup in the following season.

Strictly speaking, the five crowns have a lot of water and not high gold content.

But if Gao Han leads the team to win the quadruple crown, it will definitely be genuine, because it includes a Premier League title.

What's more, Gao Han's team has maintained a winning streak so far, which is a unique and great feat in the history of the Premier League and even the entire history of England's top league.

Who can say that with Chelsea's current momentum and tyrannical strength, it will not be able to continue to make gains in the Premier League and European competitions next season?

As Chelsea won the championship ahead of schedule, everyone began to pay attention to the FA Cup and UEFA Cup, as well as the bet with the media at the beginning of the cold season. They were concerned about who could score more goals between Eto'o and Henry ball.

At the same time, there is also a lot of media hype, hoping to see Chelsea coached by Gao Han encounter Atletico Madrid, which he once coached, in the European arena next season.

After the loss of many key players last summer, the Sheets' strength has been weakened to a certain extent. However, under the coaching of Heynckes, they still have a strong dominance over La Liga. Currently they are temporarily at the top of the La Liga table, with the possibility of two consecutive championships Sex is very big.

And everyone knows that apart from Heynckes' excellent coaching, this also depends on the solid foundation laid by Gao Han at the beginning. At least the current top stars of the Sheets Corps are all single-handedly selected and cultivated by Gao Han.

Because of this, everyone felt that it would be very interesting for Chelsea to meet Atletico Madrid.

For such speculation, Gao Han responded with a smile and did not give a positive answer.

But in the FA Cup semi-finals, Chelsea defeated Millwall head-on. With the goals of Lampard, Robben and Good Johnson, they defeated their opponents 3-0 and successfully advanced to the FA Cup final.

In another game, Arsenal lost 1-0 to Manchester United at home, Scholes scored the winning goal.

Manchester United and Chelsea both met in the FA Cup final, which immediately caused a burst of hype in the media.

The reason is simple, this time Chelsea still have to enter the South locker room.

Ferguson was disappointed when he met Chelsea in the final, but he still said that Manchester United will do their best to compete for the FA Cup.

In fact, this is the only trophy that Manchester United may win this season.

On the contrary, the unlucky Arsenal, first lost the league, then lost the FA Cup soon, and then in the second round of the knockout round of the Champions League quarter-finals, they drew 1-1 away from their opponents in the first round , lost to Atletico Madrid of Heynckes 0-2 at home, and continued to lose the Champions League.

In just over a week, he lost the entire season in one breath. Wenger has lost nothing this season.

The only remaining fig leaf is Henry, who ranks first in the Premier League scorer list.

This season's UEFA Champions League is also unpopular, including Arsenal, Real Madrid, AC Milan and other traditional giants all stopped in the quarter-finals. AC Milan even won 4-1 at home and lost 0-4 in the away game. La Coruña.

The four teams that eventually reached the semi-finals were Atletico Madrid, Porto, Deportivo and Monaco.

As the defending champion, Atletico Madrid finally drew the Ligue 1 team Monaco, while Porto drew Deportivo.

But this has nothing to do with Gao Han for the time being.

After finishing the FA Cup, Chelsea went to the away game to challenge Inter Milan non-stop.

The Nerazzurri had a rough season. After experiencing a crisis in the coaching position last summer, Cooper finally stayed on, but the results at the beginning of the season were not satisfactory. Moratti finally couldn't stand him in October and fired him. Calamari, and replaced by Zaccheroni.

But Zaccheroni's coaching performance at Inter Milan is also unsatisfactory.

In this game against Chelsea, Zaccheroni didn't know whether he wanted to catch the Blues by surprise or for some other reason, so he even formed a three-four-three lineup, and he was still chasing midfield organization and control.

Gao Han couldn't understand this style of play from the very beginning, but it didn't prevent Chelsea from aggressively pressing up and turning away.

Under the high-intensity oppression and pressing of the Blues, Zaccheroni's Inter Milan made a lot of mistakes in passing and receiving the ball, and the Blues counterattacked again and again. Eto'o performed quite brilliantly in this style of play.

But in the end it was Zlatan Ibrahimovic who scored the winning goal for Chelsea.

In the 51st minute, when the Blues aggressively attacked in the second half, the Swedish center took advantage of Ronaldinho's overhead ball, received the ball in the penalty area, and deftly dunked Cordoba. Then left foot volley hit.

This was also the only goal in the game, and Chelsea defeated their opponents 1-0 without any surprises.

And Zaccheroni also felt aggrieved by his team's loss. At the press conference after the game, he even said angrily in front of Gao Han: "We just lost our focus in a defense. The opponent has more good luck."

Sitting next to him, Gao Han couldn't help grimacing, which made all the reporters present feel the helplessness in his heart.

However, Gao Han did not make trouble in the end, but followed Zaccheroni's words and said that Inter Milan did not play its due strength. At the same time, he said that the second round of the Stamford Bridge matchup would be more difficult.

But some people don't seem to see it that way.

…………

…………

As early as when Chelsea was drawn in the UEFA Cup draw, Moratti called Gao Han, hoping that when Gao Han led the team to Milan, he could accept his invitation and have a meal together.

Although the Blues had a very intensive schedule and came and went in a hurry, Gao Han still took time out of his busy schedule to get together with Moratti after the game, and the location was chosen in the restaurant of the hotel where Chelsea was staying.

In this regard, Gao Han felt Moratti's kindness, but he was somewhat embarrassed. After all, he had just defeated him at his home court, and now he had dinner with Moratti as soon as he turned around. It was really embarrassing.

But Moratti does not seem to think that Chelsea beat Inter Milan.

"We lost to ourselves!" Moratti sighed melancholy.

When Gao Han heard this sentence, he suddenly understood.

Although Inter Milan played in a three-four-three formation, the striker was not the main center Vieri, nor the Brazilian center Adriano who was recalled from Parma during the winter break, but the Argentine veteran Cru s.

This is very strange and beyond Gao Han's expectation.

Vieri is the best center forward of Inter Milan this season. Adriano also performed very well in Parma. If it is reasonable to say that the latter is not trusted by Zaccheroni, then it is not Vieri. There is a problem here.

When collecting intelligence on opponents before, Gao Han noticed that there were problems between Vieri and Zaccheroni, and the Italian center and the club were also in a bad mood because of the disagreement on contract conditions.

At the press conference after the game, when Zaccheroni was asked by reporters why he did not play Vieri, he said that Vieri was injured, but just two days ago, Vieri vowed that he The form is very good, eager to challenge Chelsea.

The answer is already obvious, there is a problem within Inter Milan.

Vieri is indeed a thorn. There are a lot of off-court news, which also affects his performance on the court. More importantly, his playing style is very dependent on his body. Once his physical fitness declines, his performance will be greatly reduced. , Coupled with the lack of self-discipline of the players themselves, the state of this season has declined rapidly.

Although he is only 30 years old, Vieri is no longer the super BOBO he was back then.

There is another person in the same situation, and that is left back Koko.

The Italian left-back, who performed fairly well in Barcelona, ​​was favored by Inter Milan after returning to Serie A, and he even did not hesitate to exchange Seedorf.

From the standpoint of Inter Milan at the time, it should be said that it is not completely unacceptable to replace Seedorf, who Cooper did not like, with the team's urgently needed left back Koko, but who knows, Koko came to Inter Milan Afterwards, injuries continued, and there was no professional ethics at all.

Look in the Inter Milan lineup, where is Koko?

Say it and scare you to death!

During the critical period of the season, this buddy took his movie star girlfriend to the Italian seaside town of Lerici to recuperate from his injuries.

Is this the climate in Lerici that is more conducive to the recovery of players?

Or his movie star girlfriend can heal?

There are many similar situations. The reason why Inter Milan is known as a star black hole is definitely not accidental.

Gao Han really couldn't laugh or cry about the situation of Inter Milan. Looking at the distressed old man Mo in front of him, he really couldn't say anything, he could only sigh deeply.

Moratti is also a smart person, and when he heard Gao Han's sigh, he could more or less feel what Gao Han was thinking.

Even he understood that Gao Han rejected Inter Milan at the beginning because the team's internal management was very chaotic, so he would rather go to Chelsea than Inter Milan.

But look at Inter Milan this season, and then look at Chelsea coached by Gao Han. It would be great if it was changed!

Thinking of this, Moratti raised his head again, looked deeply at Gao Han, and sighed.

"Actually, I am very aware of the team's problems. Sometimes I remind myself that I should trust the team's head coach as much as possible, but the result..."

Moratti also seemed very helpless and depressed, "I used to trust Cooper a lot, but he quickly let us all down. Now, I don't know who I should trust. The more worried I become, the more worried I am. The more I want to understand, the more..."

At the end, Moratti sighed again.

It's like a vicious circle.

Gao Han suddenly understood him, and even sympathized with him.

In this vicious circle, neither is easy.

"Perhaps, you should find someone you can fully trust and entrust them with important tasks." He persuaded.

Moratti nodded and smiled, then looked at Gao Han again, "Yes, I found it, and I have been waiting for him."
