Chapter 149

After finishing the away game in Istanbul, Li Lei and the entire Chelsea team took a chartered plane to leave this crazy city overnight.

Head coach Mourinho was quite satisfied with the 1:1 away game score. Considering the extremely unfavorable game environment, it was not easy to remain unbeaten.

Next, Chelsea will give their opponents a taste of their own medicine at home. In terms of overall strength, the Blues are obviously stronger than Galatasaray.

However, the experience of this away game and the extremely bad external conditions seriously affected the performance of the players.

In addition, the hostility of the home fans and the partial and negligent penalties of the referee also prevented Chelsea from fully playing to their due level.

After returning to the familiar home court, the players must have held back their anger in their hearts, readjusted their status, and fully prepared for the next game.

In their own home court, Chelsea is confident that they can crush their opponents with full strength and fight their own revenge for this unfair away game.

Li Lei got off the plane, and it was already late at night.

He was sleepy and dragged his body tiredly to sit on the bus back to the training base.

Under the dim light in the car, he barely pulled himself together and looked at the night scene outside the window. After a while, the bus finally arrived at the training base.

Li Lei walked into the familiar dormitory, but found it empty and without any breath of life.

At this time, he remembered that his roommate Kevin had left Chelsea and went to Germany to play football. He was the only one left in the dormitory that was originally lively.

Li Lei felt a little lost. After experiencing various events, he felt lonely when he was alone.

Li Lei poured himself a glass of water to moisten his thirsty throat, and then threw his exhausted body on the bed in the dormitory.

This was not the time to be sad. After a long flight and post-match fatigue, what Li Lei needed most was rest.

In a player's career, teammates come and go. It is common.

Kevin left today, and new people will come in the future. In this change, all he has to do is focus on the game and take good care of his body.

Thinking of this, Li Lei didn't think much, adjusted a comfortable posture, and fell asleep soon.

Just before falling asleep, he thought to himself:"Should I move out and buy a big villa?"

The next day at the training base, Li Lei was doing speed training with his assistant coach.

"When running, lift your thighs high and push the ground with your feet hard, so that you can run at full speed."The assistant coach reminded him.

Although the weather in London in March has become warmer, Li Lei is still sweating and training very hard.

Even if his speed attribute has reached the limit, speed is a very critical point to stand out in a high-level league. The agile speed can make him more threatening when passing, and it can also allow him to return to defense quickly, which is very helpful for the team's defense. He wants to see what it feels like after breaking through the limit.

Three days later, on March 1, in the 28th round of the Premier League, Chelsea challenged Fulham at Clayton Park.

In this game, Chelsea players obviously took out the anger they suffered in Istanbul on the home team.

Chelsea scored the first goal just 5 minutes after the start.

After the start, Li Lei used his speed advantage to win a corner kick for Chelsea.

In this corner kick tactic, Li Lei took a very threatening corner kick.

Fulham goalkeeper Marten Stekelenburg was a little careless, and Chelsea center back Schurrle headed the ball and scored the first goal for Chelsea. , 1:0!

After scoring the first goal, Chelsea's morale was obviously boosted, while Fulham was hit hard.

Next, the Blues began to attack in a big way, threatening Fulham's goal many times.

At the end of the first half, Chelsea was already leading 2:0. In the second half, Chelsea did not relax and continued to launch offensives, but they always lacked a bit of luck.

In the entire second half until the end of the game, only one goal was scored, and Fulham scored a goal to save face at the end of the game.

In the end, Chelsea won this away league with a score of 3:1.

After defeating Fulham with great ease, Chelsea ushered in a derby battle with their city rival Tottenham.

As the game time approached, the atmosphere in London became more and more tense, and the confrontation between the two rival teams filled the city with gunpowder.

"Chelsea will beat you hard with their winning tactics, and make you realize that you are only the second tier.!"

"Stamford Bridge will be Chelsea fans' stadium before and after the game! We will use boos and jeers to make you feel ashamed.!"

"Who is Chelsea? They can't even win the championship, they are only worthy of licking our shoes!"

"Tottenham is the real boss of London! We will prove it once again!"

"After the game, you will have nowhere to hide! Tottenham and the fans will make you never forget this painful battle!"

The comparison between the two armies will undoubtedly push this derby to an unprecedented climax, and fans are also looking forward to a life-and-death battle.

Before the game, Tottenham head coach Chris Porter even made a bold statement.:" We will take Chelsea off the table at Stamford Bridge"

"Tottenham Hotspur has performed extremely well in both the league and cup this season, and we still have a chance to win the championship."

"I believe that through this game, we will prove that Tottenham is the strongest team in London and we will definitely beat Chelsea.!"

The bold words of the head coach Potter undoubtedly injected more gunpowder into the derby.

He publicly declared that he would defeat the opponent at Chelsea's home ground, which was like a blow to Chelsea fans.

As the interview continued, Potter began to comment on the players of Chelsea:"I think Chelsea is in a dangerous situation now. They have a lack of young players in the team."

"Torres and Lampard are already old, but they are still the main players, which shows that their new players are not enough to replace them."

"You ask Li Lei? He is just an Asian boy, too young."

"Moreover, as an Asian player, his physical strength and skills are limited, and it is difficult for him to take on big responsibilities. I look down on him and don't take him seriously."

"If Chelsea count on such an Asian player, they are doomed to fail."
