Chapter 384 Fly, Dutch!
A week after the ninth round ended, the Premier League ushered in the tenth round of the league, with Chelsea playing against Blue Moon Manchester City at home.
This game has also attracted great attention in China, because both sides have players and head coaches from China.
One team just won the top battle with three to zero, and the other team just defeated their opponents with six to two. Both teams were in very good shape, which made the Stamford Bridge battle attract the attention of the entire Premier League.
But at the critical moment, Gao Han once again demonstrated his trustworthy qualities.
Although Keegan's pressing tactic after Manchester City's opening brought a lot of trouble to Chelsea, they finally only lasted for half an hour. In the 33rd minute, Ibrahimovic received a deadly straight pass from Ronaldinho and scored in the penalty area, setting a first record for Chelsea.
After the second half of the game, Chelsea continued to work hard and took advantage of the opportunity to kick off the ball to hit a high shot. Etoo scored two goals in a row, further expanding the score to three to zero for Chelsea.
Afterwards, Manchester City launched a counterattack, which once created a considerable threat, but Van der Sar performed well and tried hard to ensure the goal was not lost.
In the 82nd minute of the second half, Ronaldinho assisted Galas with a free kick to win another goal.
Four to zero, the Blues won another big victory.
In this round, Arsenal drew Charlton 1-1 away, while Manchester United lost to Fulham 1-3 at home, causing unpopularity.
But in the scorer list, Henry scored nine league goals, alongside Newcastle's Alan Shearer, and ranked first in the scorer list, Chelsea's Etoo scored five goals, and Ibrahimovic scored four goals.
So the Independent once again put a big hit title in the front page column.
Henry equals Ibrahimovic plus Etoo.
But everyone can see that Chelsea's goal is very strong after winning two consecutive times.

After the 10th round of the Premier League, the Blues ushered in their first League Cup game of the season.
The opponent is from England's third-level English V. Notts County, which is currently ranked in the relegation zone of English V. The team is not strong enough.
Gao Han fulfilled his promise and in this league game, players including Van Persie, Fabregas, Robben, Messi, Pique, Robert Hutt all started, and at the same time played back-end forces such as Joe Cole, Lampard and Parker. He finally defeated Notts County four-one at home and successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the League Cup.
Among them, Van Persie scored twice, and Robben and Lampard each scored one goal.

Return to the Premier League and usher in the eleventh round.
Arsenal's away game against Leeds United started first, but the Gunners won Leeds United four-one away with Henry's hat-trick, leading Arsenal out of the shadow of three rounds of unwinding.
Meanwhile, Henry's league goals this season have also increased to twelve.
Henry showed his first hat-trick in the new season. Henry seemed to be full of fighting spirit. In an interview with the Independent after the game, he said that he did not care about the so-called battle for the shooter king at all, because all his energy was to do one thing, that is, to score goals.
"I feel like I'm in a better shape than ever before, and I feel like I can score more goals!"
Following Arsenal, Manchester United successfully defeated Portsmouth at home with goals from Diego Fran, Duff and Roy Keane, and successfully won the opponent.
The two Premier League champions once again proved with facts that in the Premier League where the strength and weakness are quite different, as long as they adjust their state, no opponent can stop them. They are always the strongest and strong competitors of the championship.
But even when Arsenal and Manchester United defeated their opponents one after another, Chelsea encountered Everton's tenacious sniper at Goodson Park Stadium.
Moyes arranged a three-middle formation of four, three, one and two in this game. Even forward Razinski basically retreated to the midfield to participate in the defense, leaving a young player Rooney cruising in front.
This defensive formation that is almost like an iron barrel, coupled with the defensive player led by tough guy Gravesen and central defender Yabo, has a relatively simple and rough defensive movement, which makes Chelsea who plays away feel uncomfortable, and it is difficult for the pass control system to operate smoothly.
The stalemate between the two sides remained until 70 minutes, but the situation in the game still did not improve.
The entire Goodson Park stadium seemed to be a draw, and many Everton fans even laughed and ridiculed Chelsea in the stands, laughing at the Blues as if they were playing football.
This made the Blue Army very angry.
But it was not until the 75th minute that Gao Han called Robben, who had been warming up, over.
"Aryan, I can see that they really want to see our simple and crude side."
Robben didn't understand what the head coach said, but was very excited.
Because he knew that he was going to replace him.
"You go up and play on the left side, there is only one task, keep breaking through and breaking through again."
Robben nodded heavily, which was what he was best at and what excited him the most.
"Did you see that number 28?" Gao Han pointed at Everton's right back. After Robben nodded, he continued: "Remember his name, Tony Hibert, you will step on his shoulders tonight and let everyone know you!"
Robben was so angry that he heard it.
"Go!" Gao Han patted Robben's shoulder hard and sent him to the court.
This time Chelsea's substitution once again received booing from all Everton fans.
Gao Han replaced Robben with Ronaldinho, who started almost every game this season so far, and judging from his performance in this game, he was indeed a little tired, so he let him get off the court early.
At the same time, Gao Han's coaching system can also be used again, so he immediately used a five-star assault card on Robben, hoping to help Robben perform. At the same time, he used a five-star attack card on Ibrahimovic, which once again activated the rapid combination card effect, greatly strengthening the attack power of the frontcourt.
"Fly, Dutch!" Gao Han thought confidently.
Amid the booing of the whole game, Robben made his first shot after he came on the court, and Everton's right-back Tony Hibert rushed over, trying to give him a warning, but unexpectedly, Robben turned around and avoided Hibert and accelerated to catch up with him.
This time, the man from the left side scored the ball, which immediately surprised everyone in the audience, especially Robben's fast speed, which made everyone in the audience excited.
But the subsequent cross was cleared by Yabo in advance.
But soon, Chelsea's offensive came again and still passed to the left to find Robben.
After receiving the ball, the Dutch rushed forward without thinking and directly rushed towards Hibert.
The unlucky England right-back just realized that when he wanted to pounce on Robben, he was shaken by the Dutch and passed by directly!
This simple, direct, rough, and even unreasonable forced breakthrough made Everton's head coach Moyes look furious on the sidelines, keeping shouting at the players, asking them to be careful and not to rob them easily.
Seeing the Scots lose their composure, Gao Han felt a little more balanced.
"Since our reasoning doesn't make sense, then just be simple and speak with your fists." Gao Han sneered, "Let you know that I'm not easy to mess with either!"
Robben's substitute completely broke the situation on the court. He forced a breakthrough on the left again and again, which made Everton very troubled. Not to mention that Hibert had already struggled to hold on for most of the game, even in his peak state, it would be difficult to defend against the Dutchman who was running fast and lightning. He could only watch the opponent break through his position again and again.
Finally, in the 83rd minute, Robben once again forced to throw away Hibert and Gravesen with lightning speed, and passed it to the penalty area. Ibrahimovic deliberately missed the front point, and Etoo followed and shot and made a shot!
Goalkeeper Nail Martin is powerless to do anything about this shot.
One to zero!
In the end, Chelsea defeated Everton one-to-zero with Etoo's final goal.
Seeing Moyes' expression of being so angry that he almost vomited blood on the sidelines, Gao Han was smiling from ear to ear.

After a 1-0 win against Everton, Dutch young player Robben won a lot of applause, but at the same time, Chelsea also encountered doubts from the media, especially in the face of Everton's tenacious defense, but there was no way, which made many media shout out that Chelsea was about to finish.
Especially in the middle of the week, Chelsea participated in the second round of the League Cup knockout match, and the opponent was Romania's Bucharest Stars. The first round was away game, and Gao Han arranged the rotation, but the game was very difficult.
In the end, it was Terry's final victory, which defeated the Bucharest Stars 1-0.
Facing the teams in the Little National League are playing so embarrassed, this undoubtedly further strengthens the media's remarks about Chelsea being bad. After returning to the Premier League, the Blues immediately welcomed Newcastle led by Robson, a traditional Premier League powerhouse.
Although the Magpie is in poor condition recently, it is a traditional Premier League giant and the team that beat Chelsea to enter the top four of the league last season. The media have expressed high hopes.
But what was surprising was that after only twenty-one minutes of the game, Chelsea right-back Glen Johnson scored a goal first, breaking the deadlock on the court.
Ibrahimovic then won another game and rewritten the score to 2-0.
Before the first half was about to end, Chelsea's Ronaldinho made a forcibly break through in the middle, creating a red card and a penalty kick, sent off an opponent's main central defender, and scored a penalty kick in person, three to zero.
After the second half of the game, Etoo and Robben, who came on the bench, scored goals one after another, and finally locked the score at 5-0.
With a five-goal victory, the Blues not only fought back the doubts from the outside world, but also felt like a rainbow of momentum.
A week later, with goals from Etoo and Ibrahimovic, he defeated Saints Southampton 2-0 away.
With the goal in this game, Etoo's Premier League goals reached eight, and Ibrahimovic also reached six, both of them showing amazing goal momentum.
On the contrary, although the Gunners have won consecutive games in the past few rounds, Henry has encountered a goal drought in two consecutive rounds, and the throne of the scorer king has gradually been caught up by Newcastle veteran Hiller.
The goal-scoring momentum of this English veteran center this season is quite amazing and it is admirable.
Because Henry didn't score in two rounds, the Independent finally shut up.
Chapter completed!
