Chapter 1162 - Premier League Eight
April 30, Stamford Bridge.
Rarely, at the arrival of a strong dialogue, many seats at Stamford Bridge were actually empty.
It is not that the support of the Blues fans for Chelsea has declined, but it is true that on this day, many Chelsea fans have chosen to stay away from Stamford Bridge.
Reluctant to witness the Blues marching at Stamford Bridge to pay tribute to the three-time champion of the league!
Chelsea is destined to take the second place in the league this season, ranking under Millwall for two consecutive years!
Millwall also defended successfully.
At the same time, Millwall’s next two important games are the FA Cup and the Champions League final.
Chelsea also have a Champions League final on the 18th of next month.
It stands to reason that this penultimate round of the league game should be a routine business. Everyone is unwilling to consume too much at this time. For the top strong teams, they really put their energy into playing a high-level game. Especially in the Premier League, the degree of fierce physical confrontation will not be controlled by reason. If there is a key player injury, I am afraid that it will not be worth the loss, and it will lay hidden dangers in the peak battle behind.
Fleet Street speculated that Mourinho would set up a strong line at home to meet defending champion Millwall.
Millwall will send a lot of substitutes!
Mourinho will fight for honor and dignity. When the Millwall League champion is handed over, he will send a congratulatory gift: defeat Stamford Bridge!
In addition, there are considerations to suppress the morale of Millwall.
It will be Aldridge’s clever way to send a substitute to Millwall, in order to consume Chelsea players and lay a groundwork for the Champions League final.
However, when the game was about to start, Fleet Street reporters found that their predictions were both right and wrong!
Chelsea did send a stronger lineup, but put technical players on the bench, such as Robben and Joe Cole.
On Millwall’s side, most of the team’s main lineup with a substitute came to Stamford Bridge.
Just looking at the battle, the two teams are going to have a fierce collision between Mars and the earth.
In the silence of Stamford Bridge, the Chelsea starting players stood in line on the court to welcome the arrival of Millwall.
Under the leadership of Captain De Rossi, Millwall walked into the court proudly, Chelsea players were applauding on both sides, but their expressions clearly showed the unwillingness and suffocation contained in their eyes. !
Mourinho sat expressionless on the coach seat, and Audridge did not intend to come here to show off his strength. After entering the stadium, he sat on the coach seat and quietly waited for the game to start.
The queue welcome is like a small ceremony, only the moment recorded by the lens and camera will have a long aftertaste in the future.
“Today at this moment, presumably the most bitter person in my heart is Mourinho, the man who came to London two years ago with the brazen words that overthrew the mad lion dynasty. He has only been able to achieve his goal for almost two consecutive years. The difference is only a little, but the gap between them, which is the difference between the two games in a season, makes Chelsea, a luxury division in Europe that has been recognized as the top strong team, with Millwall’s The strength gap is more vividly regarded as the strongest among the top strong teams and super first-class special existence! Whether or not Mourinho will continue to stay at Stamford Bridge at the end of this season, he has proved himself here, Chelsea history For the first time in the UEFA Champions League final, the highest points in the Premier League era, the highest ranking, etc., although Mourinho has only brought a championship trophy for Chelsea for the time being, he has shaped a ball that cannot be underestimated throughout Europe. Team, this team is called the Blues Chelsea!”
Around the Stamford Bridge, there is not only the ambition of the first Champions League in the history of the club, but also the fact that they are deliberately avoiding it.
Mourinho’s future destiny at Stamford Bridge will depend on the outcome of the Champions League final.
If he can ascend to the European throne, he will definitely continue to coach Chelsea next season, but if he cannot complete this feat, Abu will immediately dismiss him.
The opening ceremony to welcome the defending champion’s ceremony ended and the game continued as usual.
When Mourinho sat on the coach seat and observed Millwall’s posture at the start, he suddenly lowered his head to show a smile.
There is no ridicule and no resentment.
Probably today’s league has lost its competitive significance. Mourinho’s mentality has relaxed a lot, but at this time there is a hint of sympathy with Audridge.
From the platoon formation and the attitude of the players on the field, the two people’s ideas are once again diametrically opposed. In a sense, they also coincide.
After Chelsea finished the league, and then finished the league finale, they will focus all their attention on the Champions League final.
Millwall still has a FA Cup final, and the time between the FA Cup final and the Champions League final is not long. In addition to the recovery of players’ physical fitness, they also have the exhaustion of the boat.
Therefore, today’s game, the outside world’s guess is correct, Mourinho wants to use a stronger lineup to consume Millwall!
Before the game, he also thought that with Aldrich’s “sly”, he will definitely use the bench lineup to avoid the main force consumption, and recuperate to compete in two important finals in a row.
In this way, it does not matter!
Chelsea killing Millwall at Stamford Bridge not only stimulates their own morale, but also suppresses the morale of Millwall, causing them to lose to their rivals in the same city in the defending league. Doesn’t this mean that Chelsea has added to Millwall’s chaos?
But what about Aldridge?
He did not put up a full bench, and even did not put technical players on the bench like Mourinho, Ronaldinho entered the starting lineup!
Obviously, Aldridge is unwilling to lose today, especially to his rival Chelsea. If he loses to other opponents without hatred, he will lose to his rival Chelsea. In addition, half a month later, the two teams have a Champions League peak. Battle, this result is very bad anyway!
But I can’t lose, and I really can’t lose heart and Chelsea desperately here!
Therefore, after the game began, Millwall was dominated by stable control, the formation was not overwhelming, the offense was very cautious, and the rhythm was not fast. It was more like passively looking at Chelsea’s ideas in the game today.
Mourinho wants to consume Millwall.
What Aldridge thinks is: can Mourinho accept the home game and then lose to Millwall?
Even if it is an insignificant game!
Therefore, Millwall does not seem to be particularly conservative in defensive formation, but they did come to fight back at Stamford Bridge!
If Chelsea wants to consume Millwall, then they must actively oppress the attack, and then Millwall fights their counterattack to see who can laugh to the end!
If everything loses, the impact on the morale of the Champions League final, Mourinho is willing to bear it again?
Mourinho set up a strong battle to “deter” Millwall!
Aldridge also put on a weak lineup and pinched Chelsea’s “seven inches”!
Poor fans from all over the world who watched on television saw that the two teams sent most of the main game to play. They were excited to enjoy a strong dialogue and hoped that the two teams would devote a classic battle.
As a result, the scene is always unrest.
In 90 minutes, the two teams were dull!
The total number of shots taken by both sides is only 10!
Aldridge led Millwall to retreat at Stamford Bridge, and he can start preparing for the last two heavyweight games at the end of the season.
A week later, the Premier League ended.
Millwall ushered in Blackburn’s challenge at home.
In view of Millwall’s good performance after the Newcastle storm, the FA approved the application of Millwall to postpone the penalty for the closing of the home stands until the second home game day next season. Did Millwall fans cheer for the team? This is too inhuman!
In this final battle, the trident composed of Messi, Aguero, and Glenshare performed well. Black completed the task this season, and he was unwilling to disturb Millwall to celebrate the championship in the last game. They are not on the court, but consider where to go for a holiday. Blackburn did not show the true character of “violent book”. Instead, Messi and Aguero, two little clever men, galloped freely in their penalty areas. Easily helped Millwall win the final game 4:1.
After the game, the Blackburn team quickly retreated, and Millwall was preparing to hold the championship ceremony.
Since there was an FA Cup final six days later, the players did not celebrate passionately on the court and seemed restrained.
Fans in the stands cheered happily for the team, took photos, and asked for autographs. Millwall’s championship ceremony really seemed like a walk through.
Aldridge walked into the court and chatted with the players comfortably.
Suddenly someone hit him in the chest and stumbled him and almost fell to the ground.
A closer look and see Aguero laughed, teasing: “Boss, you are really old!”
Aldridge walked over to reach out and deliberately messed with Aguero’s hairstyle and smiled: “It’s not that I am old, it’s you who grew up! More and more strong.”
“Strong ass!”
De Rossi walked to Aguero’s side to compare the muscles in his arm and looked disdainful.
Ronaldo also came silently to the other side of Aguero, slightly pulling up his trousers to reveal his thick thighs…
Aguero suddenly shouted: “Do you still have humanity! You should comfort me today!”
Ronaldo grinned and patted his shoulder and said, “I’ll take a picture of you with a medal later.”
Aguero has not played enough league games this season, so even if he wins the championship, there are no medals to win.
However, he had already been prepared. At this time, he pulled up the collar of the jersey and hung a medal on his neck. He took it out and kissed it with a smile: “Hahaha, I don’t need to borrow yours. I have it!”
Ronaldo’s eyes widened: “Where did you steal it from?”
Aguero pointed to Aldridge and said, “It was given to me by the boss, a long time ago!”
Aldridge didn’t expect Aguero to bring that medal to him today.
Aguero showed off the medals and mixed beads, before calling to take photos with others, shouting to Audridge: “Boss, this time next year, I will give you my medal as a gift!”
Aldridge looked up with a smile on his face.
Silently said: I have received your gift.
In the summer of 2006, at the end of the twelfth season of Aldridge’s coaching career, he won the eighth Premier League title!
