What is a destructive midfielder?

early morning.

White mist filled the air.

At the Cobham training base, the sound of touching the ball is endless.

After the warm-up, Diego Costa came to the youth team venue and guided the youngsters as usual.

After the conflict between himself and Conte intensified, he was temporarily banned from participating in first-team training.

"Mount, take the initiative to seek confrontation, don't be like that bitch Abraham!"

"Yes, you remind me of Lee."

"It's too early to push forward! James!"

The head coach of the youth team, Viviers, looked embarrassed and quickly signaled the big brother of the first team to quiet down.

The football flew out of bounds.

The young player Musonda spread his hands and muttered: "What is a guy who is going to go to the Chinese Super League doing here?"

The sound was not loud, but it penetrated the thin mist and fell on Diego Costa's ears.

Viviers picked up the football, threw it onto the field, and shouted: "If it weren't for this mouth, you would have become famous at Real Betis!"

Then he turned to look at the grumpy Chelsea striker, fearing that he would do something irrational.

Diego Costa said nothing, put his hands in his pockets, turned and walked away.

He is a dirty bully on the pitch, but after taking off his jersey off the pitch, he is mostly gentle, especially after becoming a father.

Viveas sighed: If this guy was mute, his career would reach incredible heights.

Recently.

The contradictions in the Chelsea locker room have become the focus of the Premier League media.

Diego Costa first had a third quarrel with Conte, and then had a fight with fitness coach Julio Taos.

The media even revealed photos of him and his agent, Mendes, having dinner with the owner of a Chinese Super League club.

In the head coach's office.

Assistant teaching assistant Holland took out a stack of information and suggested in a low voice with a respectful attitude:

"Diego Costa made only a small mistake. He took the initiative to reconcile with Julio. We currently don't have a better forward than him. We recommend that he be recalled to the first team as soon as possible."

"If we let Diego Costa go next season, he will not be able to go to the Chinese Super League. Simeone hopes that he will return to Atletico Madrid, and other giants are also very interested in him."

"There is also the issue of Cesc Fabregas. In the few minutes he played, he delivered key threatening balls much more frequently than other midfielders. His condition remains very good."

Conte looked grim.

His "Italianization" of the Chelsea coaching staff has not yet been completely successful. The veterans of Stamford Bridge are always talking about him, although their tone and attitude are not bad.

"They were good, but they didn't fit my tactical philosophy."

"It still takes time to put together the team-building blueprint. I already have the ideal striker signings for next season in mind."

"Okay, let Diego Costa return to first-team training, we still need him for the time being."

Finish this sentence.

Conte seemed to remember something and quickly said: "As for Diego Costa's behavior of drinking beer after the game, you can convey it to the media this way: the head coach believes that beer can be used to replenish water properly after the game."

The war is coming.

There can be no more scandals of internal strife within Chelsea.

Holland nodded in surprise: "What about the fine?"

"Punishment is normal according to regulations."

On the training ground.

Chelsea players are practicing jumping around.

Matic said: "Kante, the coaching staff will definitely let you keep an eye on Li, he is very..."

Kanter shook his head and said naively: "The coach encouraged me to go forward more and participate in offense and advancement. He said that midfielders who can only defend will be completely eliminated by the times in the next few seasons."

"The coach asked me to practice shooting more."

Everyone was silent.

Although I am not very convinced by Conte, I have to agree with the development direction he pointed out to each player.

"The coach also said that there are only five players in the Arsenal lineup, Morata, Lee, Sanchez, Cazorla, and Cech, who are good. The other players are of average quality, but only Moses and Marcos in our lineup are of average quality. , the three-center-back system can make up for their weaknesses."

There is no malice in this statement.

Honest Kante accidentally paraphrased Conte’s views

far away.

Moses and Marcos were practicing one-on-one and did not hear Kanter's remarks at all.

Terry quickly interrupted: "What the boss said may not be completely correct."

Kanter nodded seriously.

Azar scratched his crotch and thought about what kind of burger he would eat for lunch.

Colney training ground.

After a slow-paced Legends game.

It took Li Kang 40 minutes to re-adapt to the intensity of the Premier League in the intra-team group competition.

Morata handed him a bottle of sports drink and whispered: "Arsenal is better. If we had gone to Chelsea, we might have tried our best to please Conte."

"Have you seen the news? The Chelsea dressing room is a mess. I guess even if Conte can win the Premier League title, the ending of next season will be similar to Mourinho."

Say so.

But the Spanish striker dare not take it lightly.

During this historical period, there are two clubs in European football that are cursed with rumors of internal strife: Chelsea and Bayern Munich. Whenever their internal conflicts intensify, they will erupt into amazing combat effectiveness in approaching games.

Fans nicknamed it: super smoke bomb.

Morata thought for a while and said: "Of course, if you go to Chelsea, Conte may not become Chelsea's head coach."

Li Kang smiled and didn't assume something that hadn't happened.

Simeone and Buffon both gave suggestions on how to crack Conte's three-center-back system, but Conte's ability to change formations on the spot was not bad, and the reserve on the bench was also deep.

Arsenal's match with Chelsea will still not be easy.

In the system panel, the achievement section glowed faintly.

[King of London: 3/6. ]

[Undefeated opponents: Fulham, Chelsea, Crystal Palace. ]

[After this achievement is unlocked, you can randomly summon a mascot of a London team at the Emirates Stadium. ]

Sidelines.

Boulder handed over a report: "Boss, Li didn't consume much energy in the Legends Game, and he didn't get injured. All the indicators of the physical examination are normal."

Wenger put his hands in his shirt pockets and said: "As long as we beat Chelsea, we will almost embrace the Barclays Cup trophy."

The last time Arsenal won the Premier League championship was in the 2003-04 season.

It has been thirteen years since then.

Bould clenched his fist excitedly: "Boss, we only spent 200 million. We created an Arsenal dynasty!"

Days passed.

The Premier League match day came.

Li Kang and his teammates arrived at Stamford Bridge.

The stands on all four sides were filled with fans one after another.

Not much noise.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of Anfield and Old Trafford, Stamford Bridge is more like a quiet library.

Although there is a limit on the number of away tickets, the fanatical away fans can always find ways to get some home team stand tickets.

VIP box.

Abramovich dragged his chin and looked at Li Kang who was warming up on the field with resentment.

"I almost bought Arsenal back then, the damn Swiss bank investigator."
