Midfielder
Chapter 246
After 26 rounds of hard work, Wenger's Arsenal finally gave up the fight for the league title after losing to Manchester United. With ten rounds left, the defending champion has withdrawn from the final duel.
This is really frustrating news for all Arsenal supporters, but the huge points gap with the top of the list forces them to accept this fact. Perhaps it is a wise move to devote all their energy to the Champions League now. At least it is a cup competition and there is no need to calculate any points.
Moreover, the focus of the Arsenal this season is also to make progress in the European war, and it is best to win the championship.
However, the fact that they lost the defending league championship still makes many people feel regretful. After all, the glory of last season is still in sight, and many people don't want to forget that they once dominated the Premier League with an unbeaten record.
This may be the first time that the old French man has given up so early. Even in the years when Manchester United was in its heyday, Wenger never surrendered so early, but this time, Arsenal lost without any reason.
But when the game was over, the defending champions had been left too far behind Chelsea in the standings. The twelve-point gap made people feel powerless just thinking about it, not to mention that Arsenal still had to catch up point by point.
Catch up with twelve points in ten rounds, if this can become a reality, then it will definitely be another myth.
Wenger does not believe that such a miracle will happen. It is not that he has no confidence in the almighty God, but after more than half a season, he has fully realized the power of Mourinho, that guy will never make mistakes easily.
Even if Chelsea leads so much in the standings, the Portuguese who is calm to the bone has never been complacent. He always tries his best to find the opponent's weakness in the most difficult games, and then gives the opponent a fatal blow. This situation has been repeated, making people feel a little desperate.
Or the Portuguese will let his team use iron-like execution ability to wear out the patience of others, but they can continue to walk steadily like this until the opponent makes a mistake, and then they will continue this game.
Wenger was worn out of his patience by Mourinho in this way. In fact, Arsenal has only lost four games so far. Except for the consecutive defeat to Ferguson, the Arsenal has not lost too many games.
But their opponents are obviously more extreme. Mourinho's team has only lost one game to Manchester City so far, which was an accident. Apart from that, he has not left anyone a chance to win.
Including Manchester United and Liverpool, neither of them could take any advantage of Chelsea. Liverpool was even beaten by Chelsea at home and away. These two defeats almost ruined Benítez's position as the Red Army coach.
Chelsea not only rarely loses, but also has a limited number of draws. Except for the beginning of the season, when they had several consecutive draws when the lineup was still in the adjustment period, this situation has never happened again, especially after Mourinho stabilized the cooperation between Lin Yi and Lampard.
It can be said that after Robben and Duff, the main offensive players, have returned to the team after recovering from their injuries, no one can hold back Chelsea, especially no one can stop the madness of the black-haired boy.
Even Wenger has to admit that he underestimated Lin Yi's energy on the field. As early as the beginning of the season, he only thought that Lin Yi would bring something different to Chelsea, but he did not expect that the boy not only changed Chelsea, but also completely disrupted the entire Premier League.
"We lost to Chelsea and Mourinho, but the worst thing for Arsenal was the existence of Lin Yi, the little guy. It was he who broke the deadlock in many key battles. If he hadn't existed, maybe the gap between Arsenal and Chelsea wouldn't be so big now. I can't comment on Lin Yi."
This is what Wenger said to a reporter he was familiar with after announcing Arsenal's withdrawal from the league championship. If Chelsea is a hard shield, then Lin Yi is the barb on the shield.
Anyone who touches him will be pierced by his sharp spikes, and then he can only fall down unwillingly with scars all over his body. Even Wenger lamented in private that he really didn't know how long this kid would continue to wreak havoc in the Premier League.
Wenger's Arsenal has already failed this season, but Manchester United, which beat Arsenal, can't be happy either. At least Ferguson, the old man, didn't feel the excitement he had in the past even if he beat Wenger twice this time.
Ferguson had to win this game, but after winning this time, he felt like he had fallen into someone else's trap. Manchester United's victory could only allow Chelsea to reap the benefits, which made Ferguson very unhappy.
Now Ferguson has worked hard to deal with Wenger, but he can only watch Chelsea take the lead in the standings. You know, Manchester United is still 13 points away from Chelsea's top spot.
Although the stubborn Ferguson did not publicly state like Wenger that the team had withdrawn from the competition for the league title, he himself was very clear about this. If even Arsenal had given up, Manchester United would have nothing to hold on to. He just wouldn't admit it himself, as the old Sir Alex could not afford to lose face.
But even if Ferguson didn't say anything, the cruel points gap can explain everything. In the sports pages of many newspapers, the Premier League games this season have been defined, and the championship basically belongs to Chelsea.
And the beasts of Chelsea seemed to have discussed it. In order to put an end to their early championship, they defeated Everton led by Moyes 2-0 in the 26th round of the league.
This victory not only continued their unbeaten record of 18 league games, but also made more opponents understand a fact. No matter when, it is best not to provoke these beasts in blue uniforms, otherwise, the person who will suffer must be themselves. This has almost become an iron rule of the Premier League this season. No one dares to easily attack Chelsea. Look at Arsenal and Manchester United, and then look at themselves. Everyone will weigh the weight.
Seeing Chelsea's state, who is the most panicked? Barcelona? NO, those Catalans are busy winning the La Liga championship at the moment, and they can't take care of what Chelsea is doing in the Premier League.
Even if the two teams are about to meet in the Champions League, it is not Barcelona's turn to panic. The team that is most afraid of Chelsea now is Manchester City, which has defeated them this season. Especially when they are about to meet in the 27th round, the Manchester City players, who have been in a bad state recently, realized how much trouble they have caused.
Because before this round of games started, Lin Yi had already said in an interview with reporters, "The game I want to win most now is the game against Manchester City. Chelsea is waiting for this revenge game."
When the kid said this to the reporter, he was absolutely gritting his teeth, because Lin Yi had not forgotten what kind of treatment he had suffered at Manchester City's home stadium, and he didn't want his opponent to get the upper hand.
Didn't those Manchester City guys say shamelessly that they are the only team that can end Chelsea? Okay, no problem, this round of games is at Stamford Bridge. If you still win, that's a skill.
Chelsea has never been so full of fighting spirit. Even when they fought against strong teams like Arsenal, they were not so excited. Even though they would face the Champions League a week after this round of the league, they did not intend to have any reservations. According to these guys themselves, this game was to skin Manchester City alive.
If those grandsons were allowed to retreat unscathed at their doorstep, no one would agree. In order to fulfill the wishes of his players, Mourinho did not make any adjustments to the lineup. It can be said that all the main players played. In fact, Mourinho himself was also waiting for this game. After all, that defeat was also unforgettable for him.
Facing a fierce Chelsea team is enough to give many teams a headache, not to mention that Chelsea is now full of revenge, so their combat effectiveness will definitely double. How terrifying can it be? It is estimated that even if Manchester City is collectively possessed by God, it will be useless because they have to face a group of vicious Satans.
Just as the Manchester City players worried, their trip to Stamford Bridge this time was to pay off the victory a few months ago. In less than ten minutes after the start of the game, Chelsea had already fired six shots.
James, who was originally the second goalkeeper of the England national team, had thoroughly experienced what intensive bombing was. In these ten minutes, he had twice picked up the ball from the goal with a helpless look on his face.
In the third minute after the game started, Lampard received Lin Yi's pass to break the stalemate. In the fifth minute, Drogba received Lin Yi's cross in front of the goal and shot low, allowing James to see the ball into the net again.
Chelsea always does what they say at Stamford Bridge, and this time is no exception. They changed the score to 5-0 before the end of the first half amid the thunderous shouts of the home fans.
Nineteen shots, five goals, and 75% of the ball possession time, this is Chelsea's perfect revenge on Manchester City.
This was just the madness of the first half. At the end of the second half, the score was fixed at 9-0. It was hard to imagine that this would be a Premier League game. You have to say that Manchester City was lucky enough, because Chelsea had at least three shots hitting the post, otherwise, they would probably lose to their opponents by double digits.
Stamford Bridge, it is estimated that after this game, Manchester City will not want to set foot on this cruel killing scene for a long time. On this damn night, everyone's heart was covered with a kind of fear.
A perfect killing performance, this is Mourinho's team holding a memorial ceremony for the upcoming Champions League.
It's just that this unlucky sacrifice looks pitiful. . .
(Uh, war... I hope for world peace...)
