Chapter five hundred and fourteen poor Grant
“Look at Zhang…”
Many TV shots point to Zhang Tiehan standing in the court with a single fist, and the commentators also commented, "Zhang Zhen looks like a hero. Yes, he is the hero on the court. Perhaps every player can be called a hero by fans, but Zhang is the best among them. He is the hero among the heroes..."
"Now all opponents facing Chelsea have a headache, that is, how to limit Zhang's performance, but obviously Arsenal did not do well. Perhaps Arsenal did not have an excellent defender who could limit Zhang Tiehan. Toure failed to play in this game. Their other young defenders are like a three-year-old child compared to Zhang..."
The narrator's metaphor is definitely a bit over, and Arsenal fans will definitely be very upset after hearing this, so he quickly realized this and began to repeat the commentary on the goal just now. The TV camera also switched to the goal replay, and the focus was on Zhang Tiehan's shooting action.
"It's hard to imagine that this inverted hook was made by Zhang. You know, he is more than 1.9 meters tall... a big man of this height can actually be so flexible on the court..."
Then he talked about Fabregas. In this slow motion, Fabregas is definitely a background, and a high-end background, especially when football rushed over his shoulder... I guess many people sweated for him - if the football did not rush over, but hit him on the cheek, it would be unimaginable!
"He is really lucky, maybe Zhang's footwork is very good. He should be glad that this is the case, otherwise the consequences..." the commentator kept saying.
In fact, Fabregas was really scared and sweated.
Just now, when Zhang Tiehan was shooting, he never expected that Zhang Tiehan would use such an action to complete the shot. As a result, he just stared blankly, and then suddenly rushed to his ears. He stood there and moved without moving. For a long time, a long time, when central defender Sendros patted his shoulder, he came to his senses, and when he thought about the scene just now, he was very scared.
He was a little lucky that the ball entered...
Compared to a goal, or even in the victory or defeat of Arsenal and Chelsea, Fabregas still feels that his face is more important. It is estimated that the ball is hitting his face and the bones on his nose are broken, and it is also very possible to distort him. He doesn't want to encounter everything.
Then Fabregas looked at Zhang Tiehan with a little complicated look.
Since he debuted at Arsenal, he has always had to face a name. That is Zhang Tiehan. He has fought with Zhang Tiehan many times, but every time he failed. He knew that he had a clear mind against Zhang Tiehan. His previous confident skills and abilities were completely lost whenever he saw this guy, but it can be imagined that he would face the other party even more without confidence in the future.
For a time, Fabregas's feelings were complicated.
At the same time, the feelings of other Arsenal players are also very complicated. They are full of fighting spirit before the game. After a while, they also played smooth cooperation and suppressive attacks, but they still failed to score a goal in the end. Chelsea scored a goal in such a short time. Especially this goal is extremely exciting. In the almost impossible situation, Zhang Tiehan, the opponent's No. 9, scored another goal... Why is it said 're Again'? In the impression of many Arsenal players, Zhang Tiehan broke their goal too many times. If you want to say the average, it is definitely more than '2'. The average score is more than 2 goals in a game. It is no wonder they feel that Zhang Tiehan scores goals frequently.
So fans are worried that the team's performance will be greatly affected.
Many pessimistic Chelsea fans don’t even expect this game. They just hope that the team will solve the problem as soon as possible, but the key is that it is not easy to solve the problem.
Fortunately, it seems that the team's condition has not been greatly affected, and more importantly, Zhang Tiehan has not been affected, and he is still very strong on the court.
So the Blues fans breathed a sigh of relief and began to shout to cheer for the team again.
......
Arsenal coach Wenger feels helpless about the current game on the court.
He felt something was wrong when he saw Chelsea counter-suppressing Arsenal just now. As expected, Chelsea scored a goal soon. This made him feel very powerless.
For several seasons, he has to face teams with Zhang Tiehan every season. At present, Arsenal is the losing side, and even Wigan Athletics did not win a few years ago. That also allowed Arsenal to win one less League Cup championship.
Now facing Chelsea who has Zhang Tiehan again... that would be even more helpless.
Not to mention Chelsea with Zhang Tiehan, it is even a normal Chelsea. It is very difficult for Arsenal to defeat. Chelsea left Mourinho and Zhang Tiehan came. Wenger felt that it was even more difficult to deal with. Chelsea's tactics were very simple, and their cooperation was a little worse than last season. The obvious gap that could be discovered was overall, but in terms of personal ability, Zhang Tiehan is really outstanding.
Compared with Zhang Tiehan, just like the commentator said...Arsenal players are like children.
Wenger felt so.
Arsenal has many geniuses, including Sendros in the backcourt and Fabregas in the midfield. Even Adebayo in the frontcourt is not old, they are all real football geniuses, but compared with Zhang Tiehan... the gap is really too big. The most obvious thing is that the team cannot defend Zhang Tiehan at all in the backcourt, which leads to the team being very passive. Every Chelsea attack and every Zhang Tiehan's ball take place Arsenal's defense faces serious challenges.
Wenger is very clear about Arsenal's characteristics.
In fact, teams that are good at attacking all have this characteristic, that is, they are good at playing in the wind, especially Arsenal is so "young". Young teams are good at playing in the wind, and when the situation goes smoothly, they can exert amazing strength.
But it turns out that Chelsea is also good at playing the wind.
When the situation was getting better, Chelsea's performance was also very good. During this period, Arsenal, suppressed by Chelsea, only had two pitiful shots in 20 minutes, and it did not pose a threat to Chelsea at all. Cech, who returned, could only stay in front of the goal and watched his teammates play. He even yawned a lot. It was probably not intentional, but it still made Arsenal feel very unhappy.
But they soon stopped caring about Cech's yawn because Chelsea scored another goal.
This was in the 41st minute of the game. Zhang Tiehan made a breakthrough on the wing and passed it to Lampard across the middle. The latter directly shot the goal from the outside. The score was rewritten to 2:0. The home team was in front of the away team and Chelsea led Arsenal two goals.
"Frank--"
“—Lampard——”
The Stamford Bridge commentator shouted, "2:0! Lampard helped Chelsea score his second goal, and before the end of the first half, he had two goals advantage, which was so wonderful!"
With his commentary, the Blues fans cheered.
The game was less than halfway through, and Wenger didn't have much confidence. He was not a person who easily lost, but he was fed two goals in 40 minutes, and at Stamford Bridge Stadium, how difficult is it for Arsenal to complete the reversal in the second half?
As for the first half... Wenger no longer makes any hope.
The game was also played. Arsenal seemed to want to recover a goal in the second half of the first half, but in the end they still failed to break through the Chelsea goal, and the two teams entered the midfield with a score of 2:0.
However, when the game ended, the atmosphere between the two teams was a bit dull.
Because Arsenal was behind in the score, they swore to defeat Chelsea before the game, but now they are behind two goals. In this contrast, it is strange that their players are in a good mood.
Chelsea players are not worried about the game, but when they return to the locker room, they have to face Grant. In fact, they are somewhat resistant. Before the "Shepchenko Incident", the team did not have so many problems, and the atmosphere was generally good. However, after the "Shepchenko Incident", many players are very dissatisfied with Grant's inaction in the team, especially those who have just transferred, such as Barak and others. They actually support Shepchenko because it is really difficult for them to integrate into the team. There are no fixed tactical routines. It is too difficult to truly integrate into the team, so their performance has also been affected.
In short, the team is not very satisfied with Grant as a whole.
This also includes those old players.
In fact, many players in the team still miss Mourinho. Why did Mourinho leave? This has something to do with Zhang Tiehan. Everyone knows this, but it is difficult for them to hate Zhang Tiehan. After all, Zhang Tiehan is a player like them and performs very well. There is a private conflict between Mourinho and Zhang Tiehan. It is not that Zhang Tiehan used any shameful means to force Mourinho away. To tell the fundamental reason, it is just that Zhang Tiehan performed too well. If this is a mistake, then they don’t have to play hard.
So they shifted the target and Grant was shot while lying down...Who asked him to take over the team?
A coach who is not famous and has no ability, parachuted to Chelsea, their dissatisfaction is naturally put on Grant. Grant is in a difficult situation now.
The media are dissatisfied with Grant, and the fans are dissatisfied with Grant. The most important thing is that all Chelsea players are also dissatisfied with Grant. Abramovich does not trust Grant in the Chelsea club.
You can imagine how difficult Grant's situation is.
