Chapter 2068 Ye Chen returns to Stamford Bridge [Happy Birthday to the General!!!]

11 month 6 day.

This is the last match before the national team match day.

It was also the strongest team in the previous 11 rounds and the team that competed most fiercely with Manchester United.

In fact, after the rise of Manchester United, Liverpool declined at the speed of light. After entering the Premier League, Manchester United competed with Arsenal in the early days and with Chelsea in the middle period.

And before that, Chelsea could be said to be Manchester United's nemesis.

There is a bit of tactical conflict.

In the player tunnel, the players took turns greeting Ye Chen.

Including many members of Chelsea's coaching staff...

To be honest, returning here was like returning home for Ye Chen, and he was very familiar with everything here.

But now they are wearing the red jersey of the visiting team.

Last season was Ye Chen's first season back in the Premier League, and he played a total of two games at Stamford Bridge.

In one game they lost 2-4 to Chelsea, and in the other they won 3-2, almost defeating Chelsea.

Both games were quite difficult.

This was two consecutive crucial games for Manchester United and they already had some minor problems with their physical fitness.

Fortunately, there is a three-day break between the Champions League and this game, and Manchester United's players are not suspended due to red cards, so they can field the strongest lineup.

"Zhuang'er sets the stage~Zhuang'er sets the stage~~~"

As the familiar voice sounded, all the fans' attention was drawn to the TV.

Of course, the fans watching the live broadcast heard the voices of Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu.

They are commentating two games in a row today, and the intensity is at full throttle...

"There is no need to mobilize when these two teams meet. Last season, Manchester United lost only one game, which was an away game against Chelsea!"

“Now that we are visiting Stamford Bridge again in the league, I believe Manchester United fans definitely don’t want to see the team lose again!”

"Last season, Chelsea performed well and finished second in the league with more than 90 points. This is quite rare in the Premier League... You know, in the previous seasons, they could win the championship with just 80 points!"

“I believe Chelsea’s players must want to avenge their defeat last season!”

"In this season's transfer window, Manchester United brought in Cristiano Ronaldo, while Chelsea bought Lukaku and Morata, which perfectly solved their problem of lack of striker power!"

"I believe Chelsea's goal this season will still be to win the championship!"

Zhan Jun’s brief pre-match introduction directly explained the recent grievances between the two sides.

Last season, Chelsea was quite strong in the league because they were fighting on a single front.

But they happened to meet Manchester United...

曼联上个赛季29胜8平1负，95分联赛第一，而切尔西则是30胜3平5负，93分联赛第二。

The two sides are just one game away...

It can be said that the suspense was maintained until the last moment.

This year, due to the strong rise of Manchester City, the Premier League has become more chaotic and more competitive.

So Chelsea has only one goal today, to beat Manchester United!

In the player tunnel, the brothers chatted with each other and were very familiar with each other.

Since we are all in England, we get together during holidays and don’t feel strange.

But they all understand that once they appear on the stage, no one will show mercy!

Today's referee is Anthony Taylor, who has some grudges with Ye Chen.

Following his signal, the coach began to check the number of players on both sides, and when the time came, he took everyone onto the court.

The moment Ye Chen’s photo appeared on the big screen, the entire Stamford Bridge exploded.

"YeGoooooood!!!"

The fans shouted loudly to Ye Chen, and Ye Chen smiled and waved to the fans.

At this moment, there is a statue of Ye Chen outside Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea still has quite some importance to Ye Chen.

"Chelsea will still use the three-center-back tactic today, with a formation of 3412!"

"Goalkeeper Oblak."

"A back three of Van Dijk, Hummels and Andreas Christensen."

"The midfield four is Marcos Alonso, Fabregas, Kante and Azpilicueta."

"Hazard, attacking midfielder."

"Double strikers Lukaku and Morata!"

Lukaku's nickname is Kaku, while Morata's nickname is Sloppy.

Both of them use the last two characters as their nicknames.

"Manchester United used a conventional 433 formation."

"Goalkeeper De Gea."

"Left back Cancelo, center back Maguire and Pepe, right back Valencia!"

"Three midfielders: Ronaldo, Modric and De Bruyne."

"Left winger Rashford, forward C Ronaldo, right winger Ye Chen!"

"Both teams have the strongest starting lineups. Let's wait and see who can win this peak battle at Stamford Bridge!"

On the green court, players from both sides are ready to go!

Conte’s request to Chelsea today is very simple: bring out the momentum of last season and defeat Manchester United at home!

"Beep!"

With Anthony Taylor's whistle, today's competition officially begins!

Last season, Chelsea won the runner-up with 93 points under Conte's leadership, and their three-center-back tactics can be said to be more and more tacitly coordinated.

Previous captain Terry left Stamford Bridge and joined Villa on July 2017, 7.

Villa is currently fighting in the Championship. If Villa can return to the Premier League this season, he will receive an additional bonus of 2 million pounds.

After joining Villa, the team directly announced that Terry would become the captain of Villa...

It’s amazing to say that as early as October 1998, 10, Terry’s first official game in his life was the League Cup match against Villa.

Maybe this is the invisible monkey shit.

Of course, Chelsea did not become weaker without Terry. Cahill is still there, and Christensen has grown rapidly through loan to the Bundesliga.

When recruiting a central defender, Ye Chen took the initiative to contact Christensen, but unfortunately he refused.

Now that they met in the league, Ye Chen had made up his mind to make him regret rejecting Manchester United...

However, in the first few minutes, neither side launched overly aggressive attacks, and mainly focused on probing.

In this kind of game where whoever falls behind will be at a disadvantage, both sides played very cautiously.

Kante has been staying close to Ye Chen's area since the beginning of the game.

Wherever Ye Chen is, there he is.

Today, Conte obviously hopes that Kante will give Ye Chen a little "defensive shock".

9 minutes 03 seconds.

Ronaldo's long shot was slightly off the goal and Oblak took the goal kick.

Hummels passed the ball to Van Dijk, who made a direct diagonal pass to Fabregas who was transitioning in the midfield.

Fabregas took the ball and passed it straight to Morata in the frontcourt.

In fact, Ye Chen had a very high opinion of Morata. Except for the moment when he finished the ball and couldn't tell whether it was his left foot or his right foot, everything else was top-notch.

This time he was very steady in holding the ball with Maguire behind him.

Morata took the ball and took a step towards his own half before passing the ball to Azpilicueta who was sprinting on the right.

AZP feels very smooth when holding the ball.

Just make a small pot of soup and move forward immediately.

Fortunately, Cancelo was in his position.

But AZP didn't take Cancelo seriously at all. After catching up with the football, he slowed down significantly.

When Cancelo slowed down, he immediately sped up.

"Oh!"

Take the lead and pass the ball to the middle!

Morata and Maguire were pulling each other at the front.

Both of them ran towards where the football landed.

But the ball slipped past them.
