Super Marshal

Until boarding the plane back to London from Milan, Gao Han still echoed the words of Moratti's kindness just now in his mind, and he really felt the sincerity of the chairman of Inter Milan.

Giving gifts and things during the holidays, often calling to care, and now saying such things in person, if Gao Han is not moved, it would be too cold-blooded.

Unfortunately, the timing was wrong.

Today's Chelsea has a very good momentum. With the current lineup and strength, Gao Han only needs to be strengthened in some positions, such as left back or midfielder. He can guarantee that next season's Chelsea will definitely become the Champions League champion One of the top contenders.

What's more, he also has an invincible coaching system.

In this case, Gao Han really has no way to give up everything he has built at Chelsea, go to Inter Milan, and start everything from scratch. This is definitely not in his personal interest.

God knows the next opportunity to lead the Premier League team to the Champions League, when will it have to wait?

Whether it is for personal honor or to complete the tasks of the coaching system, he has no reason to leave Chelsea.

Therefore, for Moratti's kind invitation, Gao Han can only politely decline, but he promises that he will definitely coach Inter Milan if he has the opportunity to repay Moratti for his sincerity.

This made him somewhat guilty of Moratti.

But soon, as Eto'o came from the back row, Gao Han had to temporarily let go of his thoughts.

"Boss."

"Hey, Samuel." Gao Han pointed to the empty seat next to him, "Sit."

Eto'o sat down, looked at the coach, hesitated to speak.

"What do you want me to do?" Gao Han asked with a smile.

Eto'o nodded: "I want to discuss something with you."

"tell me the story."

"Play in the league, continue to let me go." Eto'o begged.

Gao Han frowned after hearing this, "Do you want to play more league games?"

The Cameroon striker nodded resolutely and positively, "Yes."

But there was some uneasiness in his eyes.

Chelsea has already won the Premier League ahead of schedule. It stands to reason that in the remaining seven games, apart from the away game against Manchester United, the strength of other teams is not strong. Even if they play Newcastle away, Chelsea has a good chance of winning .

In this case, Gao Han and the coaching staff's plan is to concentrate all their forces to play in the FA Cup and UEFA Cup.

But Eto'o took the initiative to ask Ying to continue playing in the league, and there must be only one purpose.

"Because of Henry?" Gao Han asked.

Eto'o didn't deny it either, nodded and said, "Well, I want to beat him and win the top scorer."

From his raised eyes, Gao Han saw a fiery longing.

There is no doubt that Henry is the top scorer in European football in the past few seasons, no one can doubt this.

Even this season, in the entire Premier League, no one can keep pace with Henry.

Except him Eto'o.

In this case, Eto'o wants to compete with Henry for the top scorer, not just to prove his strength, but more importantly, he is eager to be famous and successful.

As the head coach of the team, Gao Han never asks his players for some righteous reasons. To some extent, he is very supportive of Eto'o's desire to become famous, because it is normal.

Professional players are also human beings. Some people have emotions and desires. The vast majority of professional players are born in poverty and have a large family to support them. Therefore, they want to be famous, successful, and get a higher salary. This is completely understandable. , understandably.

This is especially true for players from Africa like Eto'o.

But he himself seems to think that this request is too much and ignores the interests of the team, so he has no confidence in his heart.

Gao Han was sure that if he refused, Eto'o would not dare to mention it again, but this would also dampen the enthusiasm and aggressiveness of the Cameroon striker, so he thought for a while and asked: "What do other players say?"

Eto'o raised his head and looked behind the coach.

Only then did Gao Han realize that the players in the entire cabin had gathered behind him.

"Boss, we all support Samuel's idea, we should also have a top scorer." Captain Terry took the lead.

"Isn't it? That guy Henry is too arrogant, we can't lose to anyone if we lose to him."

"Ha, what are you talking about? None of us will lose."

"Haha, yes, yes, no one loses."

"Boss, don't you still have a bet with the media reporter?"

"Yeah, Samuel can't lose, even the boss can lose, right?"

"Boss, you're about to lose, it's meaningless to win the championship."

"Fight it, boss."

"Yeah, I worked hard."

Gao Han turned his head away, and shook his head with a wry smile as he glanced at this group of guys who feared the world would not be chaotic.

But let alone, if they hadn't reminded me, I was so busy recently that I almost forgot my bet with the media reporters.

"Well, if you say so, I can consider it, but let's talk about it first."

As soon as Gao Han's voice fell, Eto'o and other players suddenly became excited.

"It's okay to fight for the league, but you can't relax in the FA Cup and UEFA Cup."

"No problem!" Eto'o blurted out.

The others burst out laughing, laughing so hard that the Cameroon striker felt embarrassed himself.

"Also, since you want to fight, you must win. If you lose, you will lose face."

"Don't worry, boss, I will not lose!" Eto'o assured confidently.

At this time, Ibrahimovic also squeezed out from the crowd, "Boss, he lost, and me."

It was only at this time that everyone noticed that this guy also scored 22 goals, only three goals less than Henry and Eto'o, and he has a good chance.

Eto'o raised his eyes and shouted at his roommate, "Get lost."

Everyone laughed again.

These two guys are now a pair of living treasures!

…………

…………

The Premier League will soon usher in the thirty-second round of the league.

Arsenal was the first to play the game, and their opponent was the Red Army Liverpool.

The Gunners have just suffered setbacks on multiple fronts in the past. This season is doomed to be empty-handed and morale has been greatly reduced. Therefore, Liverpool coach Houllier made a high-profile statement before the game. The goal of the Red Army in this game is only three points. .

At the beginning of the game, the Red Army turned away and played a round of attack. In the eighth minute, Hyypia took advantage of a corner kick and dived to the top of the penalty area, opening the scoring for the Red Army and making an excellent start.

But Arsenal are not to be outdone.

In this game, the two wide players Pires and Ljungberg were more aggressive, and they cooperated more with Henry.

In just thirteen minutes, Arsenal seized a chance. Pires took the ball from the left and Ljungberg cut to the center to get the ball and put it behind him. Henry stepped in and made it happen overnight, but the referee signaled offside and the penalty was invalid.

This decision aroused the dissatisfaction of Arsenal fans.

But relying on the gradual smoothness of the frontcourt attack, Arsenal gradually controlled the situation, especially the combination of Henry, Pires and Ljungberg, which was full of lethality.

On the other hand, Liverpool, after taking the lead, was attacked and scored a goal. Although the penalty was invalid, Houllier became conservative and slowed down the offensive rhythm. As a result, Arsenal completely controlled the game.

In the 31st minute, Henry finally scored again. He received an oblique pass from Pires in front of the goal, and lightly pushed the ball with his left foot. The ball passed through Dudek's crotch and entered the goal, tying the goal. up the score.

Afterwards, Arsenal chased after the victory, but quickly exposed the weakness of their defense. Liverpool seized the opportunity to counterattack. Gerrard made a direct pass behind him.

After changing sides in the second half, Arsenal counterattacked wildly. Only four minutes into the game, Ljungberg made a cross from the wing, and Pires scored with his left foot to equalize the score again.

One minute later, Henry, relying on his excellent personal ability, scored again after consecutive dribbles, reversing the score.

Afterwards, the Gunners took full control of the game. In the 78th minute, Henry received another overhead cross from Bergkamp, ​​shot in front of the goal and scored a hat-trick, finally locking the score at 4-2.

The entire British media circle went into a carnival!

All the media reporters were greatly relieved.

With this hat-trick, Henry's league goals this season reached 28 goals, three more than Eto'o.

What's more frightening is that since the second half of the season, Henry's scoring status has been getting better and better. This round even staged a hat-trick, which made people see his excellent scoring desire.

In the post-match press conference, head coach Arsene Wenger even gave Lover a very high evaluation.

"Henry's second goal is definitely a reflection of his personal ability. He is a phenomenal striker. I have no doubt that he is the best striker in world football at the moment."

Liverpool coach Houllier also said that Henry completely determined the outcome of the game.

"When you meet Henry, you can only raise your hands and applaud him sincerely for his goals."

As for the shooter battle between Henry and Eto'o, Houllier said he is more optimistic about his French compatriots.

Wenger also said that Eto'o does not yet have the strength to challenge Henry.

"Yes, there's no question he's had a fantastic season, but it's a pity he's playing against Thierry Henry."

Perhaps stimulated by Henry's hat-trick, Chelsea's home game against Middlesbrough was held one day later. Although Chelsea beat Middlesbrough 4-0 and won another big victory, Eto'o Failed to score.

Chelsea created a lot of chances in this game, but Eto'o was eager to score and missed at least three must-go goals, but in the end he failed to score and could only return with regret.

The four scorers were Ibrahimovic who opened the scoring, Veron, Bridge and Ronaldinho.

After the game, Eto'o trailed Henry by three goals and continued to rank second in the scorer list, while Ibrahimovic caught up to 23 goals and ranked third.

After the game, British media reporters also interviewed Gao Han, asking him about his views on the battle between Eto'o and Henry for the top scorer.

"There are still six rounds in the league, everything is still possible, and the outcome is still unknown."

"Samuel is a great striker, I have no doubts about that, but I think the most important thing for him now is to stay calm, that's the basic element for a striker to take chances on the pitch, this game He's clearly not doing well enough."

"However, I'm sure, he picked himself up quickly."

"As for Henry's hat-trick, it's not necessarily a good thing."

"No matter what, I still firmly believe that Eto'o will be the top scorer in the Premier League this season!"

But almost all media reporters scoffed at Gao Han's remarks.

But it turns out...
