Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

To be honest, recruiting people for the club is not a very easy job.

With Li Ang's temperament, it would be enough to take the initiative to express his feelings to Suarez once on the court this season.

But now he has extended an invitation to Suarez on behalf of Chelsea for the third time this season.

If Suarez is finally poached by Barcelona and his three unsuccessful invitations are known to the media, then he will really become a clown.

Not to mention that the media and fans laughed at him, he himself would offend Liverpool, which was completely thankless.

But there was no way. In the middle of the season, Ibrahimovic approached him and Mourinho to express his intention not to continue signing with Chelsea after the end of the season.

The reason is also very simple, which directly stopped both Li Ang and Mourinho from persuading him to stay in the Premier League.

"I will be 34 years old this year. If the team still plays with the same tactics as the season I came here, I should be able to last another season, but this is impossible.

We are playing very well now, and we also need younger players to step up in every position on the team. I am really not up to the task of running, and I have really reached the age where I need to retire..."

In the past, it was hard for Li Ang to imagine that such words would come out of Ibrahimovic's mouth.

But the reality is this. No matter how strong a football player is, he cannot withstand the invasion of time.

Ibrahimovic is indeed a little overwhelmed. Chelsea's current tactics have high running requirements for every player on the court.

In addition, the Premier League's competition is inherently strong, the game pace is fast, and the schedule is very intensive. No matter how you look at it, it is not a league suitable for players to "retire".

Of course, if Ibrahimovic can accept being a substitute at Chelsea, then the challenges and problems he faces will be easily solved.

But Ibrahimovic just couldn't accept being on the bench for the past two seasons.

His physical fitness has indeed declined significantly compared to when he was young, but he has now successfully changed his playing habits and opened up another track for himself at the center position.

That is to say, in the current Chelsea, he is somewhat unable to bear the tactical requirements.

But if he returns to Paris or Serie A, he is still very confident that he can serve as the absolute main force and offensive core of any team.

In the face of age, Ibrahimovic let go of his unruliness and began to rationally consider his next contract.

If he can fulfill his Champions League dream with Chelsea this season and make history by winning the English quadruple crown, then he will really have no career regrets.

Leave the Premier League for a league with a slower pace of play. It's almost his inevitable choice.

From a brother's standpoint, after Li Ang understood Ibrahimovic's thoughts, he really couldn't continue to persuade Ibrahimovic to stay in the Premier League and play for a few more seasons.

Everyone can say that, but if Ibrahimovic really suffers a serious injury or something in the Premier League, then Li Ang will only blame himself extremely.

Mourinho also respects Ibrahimovic’s ideas. And to be honest, Ibrahimovic has made a lot of tactical sacrifices and changes in the past two seasons in order to adapt to Chelsea's tactics.

Now Ibrahimovic has come up with the idea of ​​​​leaving. For both public and private reasons, Mourinho does not want to set up any obstacles for Ibrahimovic's economic team in the transfer.

After preparing for the worst, the problem facing Mourinho and even the entire Chelsea team is to find a top center that suits Chelsea's system as soon as possible.

Li Ang's invitation to test Suarez has changed from being optional to a must.

Suarez is not a high center forward, nor is he durable and tough, but he can serve as a tactical fulcrum. His sense of smell in front of the goal and technical ability to get the ball are also at the top level in football today.

The more important point is that now he also wants to join a powerful team with the ability to compete for the championship.

Last season, he almost decided to let his economic team negotiate transfer matters with Arsenal, but in the end he was persuaded by Gerrard.

This season he dragged Liverpool into the top six, and he has really done his best to Liverpool.

Suarez is not young anymore. If he does not seize the time to fight for championship honors, his chances of winning the championship will only become lower and lower in the future.

He has this idea, Chelsea can also afford to pay, and it is not yet a direct competitor of Liverpool - after all, Liverpool will only compete for four at most in the next few seasons, and there is absolutely no hope of winning the championship.

When it comes to transfers, Mourinho has confidence in his own transfer department, so it is necessary for Li Ang to build relationships at the player level in advance.

It would be best to be like how Chelsea and Kroos negotiated a transfer last summer.

After showing sincerity at the club level and paying enough for the transfer fee, Li Ang took action again and directly called Kroos to make an appointment for an interview.

A two-pronged approach, finalizing the contract and settling transfer matters early to avoid long nights and dreams.

After all, good midfielders and centers are now scarce resources in European football. If you don't start early, you will be robbed by other wealthy teams, and you will really have nowhere to cry.

Before Chelsea won the Champions League this season, they did not have the qualifications of a traditional giant to show off to their players.

At this moment, Mourinho looked at Li Ang who had a "very happy chat" with Suarez on the court, and his heart felt settled.

He decided that after the end of this season, the club would conduct transfer negotiations with Liverpool as soon as the summer window opened.

He also has to wait until Suarez's transfer is settled before he can start his happy vacation!

Li Ang didn't know that he was being targeted by Mourinho again. He was still completing his task seriously.

Seeing the movement in Suarez's eyes, he also enthusiastically invited Suarez to visit London after the season.

At that time, you can take a look at the living area and school in advance...

Messi can call Suarez to make an invitation, but he is more direct here. He can invite offline three times if not once!

He didn't believe that in this case, Suarez could be abducted by Messi to Barcelona.

Barcelona is a good place to live, but London is also very attractive. Suarez's wife may not be able to refuse the temptation of settling in London in the future.

After completing his task, Li Ang generously hugged Suarez on the court, and then left gracefully under Gerrard's vigilant guarding, going to the field with his teammates.

Curious reporters swarmed around again, wanting to ask about the conversation between Li Ang and Suarez.

"I consoled Louis, they have encountered some problems this season, and to be honest, it is very regrettable that a traditional English club like Liverpool failed to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Transfer rumors? No, no, no, I don't know about this, and there are always scandals in the transfer market every year, right?

Luiz is now 100% a Liverpool player, and he also told me that he was doing well at Liverpool, and I just comforted and encouraged him, it’s that simple..."

There was nothing wrong with Li Ang's interview speech, but that night the transfer scandal between Suarez and Chelsea once again made a fuss.

But this time, transfer rumors won't die down as quickly as they did during the first half of the season.

Liverpool's public relations department refuted rumors everywhere, but Chelsea was extremely quiet.

Don't ask, just ask: Chelsea is currently preparing for the FA Cup final against Arsenal and does not want to be disturbed by other matters.

The reasons given by Chelsea officials were very sufficient and quite reasonable, but they did not explain the transfer scandal.

This is actually a test before formal contact at the club level.

The same was true for Arsenal last season. Before making a formal offer to Liverpool, transfer rumors between them and Suarez were flying all over the place.

The movement on Chelsea's side is not that big.

If Liverpool's senior management is sensible enough, they should be mentally prepared for Suarez to leave the team in this summer window.

After all, Suarez agreed to renew his contract with Liverpool last year, but was very determined to only agree to a two-year extension.

Now Suarez only has one year left on his contract with Liverpool.

Either get together and break up, sell a large amount of transfer fees to the team's signings, or force Suarez to stay for another year, and finally let other teams pick up the leak.

The gains and losses in this will have to be weighed by Liverpool's top brass...

Most of Chelsea's main players once again got a holiday. Even if the league make-up match with Arsenal is about to start, Mourinho is still very relieved to let most of the main players rest first.

The outside world has publicized Chelsea's next round of make-up matches as very important.

At the league level, this round of make-up games means nothing to Chelsea and Arsenal, because their rankings have been fixed.

But before the FA Cup final, such a match between the two teams can be regarded as a tactical preview of the FA Cup final.

The Arsenal team still attaches great importance to this.

They had suffered greatly from being restrained by tactics in previous games against Chelsea.

If changes are to be made, then it might not be a bad idea to do some tactical experiments in this round of make-up games.

On the afternoon of May 20, Mourinho led his team to the Emirates Stadium in the same city.

At yesterday's pre-match press conference, he rarely announced the starting 18-man roster one day in advance.

In this list, there are only 6 main players in Chelsea's first team, and the remaining players are either substitute rotations or young players from the youth training.

But this is what the media expected.

But before the game started that afternoon, after Chelsea's starting 11-man roster was released, media reporters from all walks of life couldn't calm down!

Because of the 6 main players in Chelsea's 18-man roster, only Li Ang started the game!

The rest are sitting on the bench. In short, what Arsenal has to deal with today is just a Chelsea team that is almost pure rotation!

Are you looking down on Arsenal or are you hiding something?

A big question mark appeared in the minds of the reporters at the scene.

Wenger, who learned about Chelsea's starting lineup today, was also confused by Mourinho.

But the game is about to start, and it is not easy to make major tactical adjustments on the spot at this time. Wenger can only let his disciples act according to the situation.

If you can't use Chelsea's tactics, then try to break Chelsea's unbeaten streak this season!

If this can be achieved, then Wenger thinks it is worth it.

At 3 p.m., this round of make-up games started at the Emirates Stadium.

From the moment Chelsea came up, they were very single and put on a defensive posture.

But Arsenal, who had suffered so much from Chelsea's counterattack before, has learned the lesson now and is not in a hurry to launch a massive attack.

Arsenal's forward pressure test was very cautious, and Li Ang was happy when he saw it, allowing Arsenal's midfielders to battle with the air.

He stayed in the midfield anyway, not in any hurry to direct his teammates to press forward.

The first 10 minutes of the first half were passed without incident. The Arsenal team saw that Chelsea seemed to be really determined to defend, and then they started to make moves.

In the sprint stage of this year's season, Arsenal has no urgent need to compete for fourth place, and it has also been a little lazy on the offensive end. Cavani's scoring efficiency has dropped off a cliff at this stage.

As of now, he is still two goals away from Li Ang's 27 league goals. If he cannot achieve a data breakthrough in this round of league, it will be too difficult to perform a hat trick in the last round.

Therefore, from the very beginning of the game, Cavani was very active in pressing the Chelsea penalty area and frequently raising his hands to ask for the ball.

But just like before, Chelsea players blindly passed the ball to Li Ang, but Li Ang performed normally.

The more anxious Cavani is to get the ball to express himself, the harder Chelsea's defense will be against him.

Anyway, everyone knows that Arsenal's other offensive players will only feed Cavani the ball alone in the end, so naturally they have to concentrate their defensive efforts to restrict Cavani's performance.

The two teams soon began a routine-based offensive and defensive drill in Chelsea's half.

It's just that Arsenal's offense was too rigid, with a style of thunder and no rain.

Cavani forced six shots in the first half hour of the game, but only two of them hit the goal frame. The efficiency was simply low...

This kind of offensive mode is not difficult for Chelsea's defensive players to deal with at all.

When Wenger saw this, he also pulled Cazorla away from the sidelines and didn't know what he said to him.

Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, Cazorla approached Cavani, and the two covered their mouths and whispered a few words to communicate.

At the end of the first half of the game, Cavani slowly calmed down, no longer blindly looking for shooting opportunities, and regained the tactical role that a top center should have on the offensive end.

However, he was a little slow to adjust. Arsenal's offense improved slightly, and the referee blew the whistle to end the half-time game.

After a short 15-minute break, Arsenal wanted to continue the siege, but Chelsea changed the passive defensive rhythm of the first half!

Take the initiative, press and press, and quickly counterattack after getting the ball!

Chelsea resorted to a crazy running tactic of high pressure throughout the game, forcibly raising the pace of the game and making Arsenal's defense players dizzy!

Chelsea did not send their main striker trident today, but the two-wing combination of Lukaku and Salah counterattacked, and the impact was no less than that of Hazard and De Bruyne!

Coupled with Drogba, who can stably act as a fulcrum in the middle, and Li Ang, who started to get the ball frequently and then intervened, Chelsea's counterattack was a success!

But at this time, Wenger failed to react quickly on the spot.

Arsenal's defense began to become more and more passive, and Arsenal players in the midfield and frontcourt failed to retreat in time to assist their teammates behind to relieve them of the pressure.

Under heavy pressure, the young Arsenal right back Bellerin made a mistake. After Lukaku took the ball and pressed it into the penalty area, he subconsciously used his upper body to fight with all his strength!

In terms of his ability to fall to the ground in the penalty area, the current Lukaku is definitely not as good as Hazard and Salah.

But Bellerin fed him all the opportunities... After the two entangled, they fell together. Bellerin innocently spread his hands, but the referee on duty still pointed firmly at the penalty spot!

Wenger was numb at this moment, and Cavani looked even more ugly!

Li Ang didn't expect such an unexpected surprise at all. He patted Lukaku's big bald head and praised him for a job well done!

After the referee forcibly separated the players from the two teams who were still arguing, Li Ang walked into the Arsenal penalty area holding the ball and looked at Arsenal's substitute goalkeeper Ospina, who was slightly nervous at the moment.

The Colombian national goalkeeper is actually quite good, but his height of 1.83 meters is indeed a shortcoming that limits his abilities further.

After thinking for a moment, Li Ang made up his mind. When the referee blew the whistle, he sprinted quickly and pulled out the football with great force!

It's the bright card that draws the football to the upper left corner of the goal!

Li Ang didn't give any hints with his eyes, and Ospina saved resolutely, but his arm was just so short that he couldn't reach it!

I think back then, Li Ang's powerful volley penalty kick was developed under the guidance of Casillas.

Casillas knows exactly what kind of penalty kicks goalkeepers hate the most.

Ospina and Casillas are about the same height, but in terms of reaction and physical fitness, he is not even slightly worse than Casillas.

The football was drawn into Arsenal's goal by Li Ang without any suspense!

Li Ang, who scored his 28th Premier League goal this season, celebrated excitedly with his teammates at the Emirates Stadium!

Cavani and Suarez, whose league goals are still stuck at 25 and 26 goals, have a hard time surpassing him!

Mourinho stood up from the coaching bench with a confident smile and kept applauding Li Ang's performance!

Hiding tactics?

Perhaps against other teams, Mourinho will consider doing this.

But when playing against Arsenal, Chelsea never need to hide their tactics.

Never.
