Chapter 773 I won’t leave any chance for Su Dong!
Chelsea’s league starts one day earlier than Manchester City.
When Manchester City beat Liverpool 4-0 at home, several Chelsea players were taking advantage of the rare holiday time to relax in an upscale fan bar in London.
The most attractive thing about this bar is that Chelsea players often visit it, so there are live broadcasts of matches on the dance floor and in the private rooms of the bar. Chelsea players watched the live broadcast of Manchester City in the private rooms.
Reborn!
This is the most intuitive feeling of Chelsea players about Manchester City's performance this season.
Last season, the three most famous technical teams in the Premier League, in addition to the old Arsenal, Chelsea coached by Ancelotti was also one of them, but Manchester City had the strongest ball control ability, and also the worst performance.
Even though technical players such as Ballack, Deco and Joe Cole left this summer, Chelsea under Ancelotti's coaching still had an average possession rate of over 70% per game and achieved an amazing record of 6-0 in two consecutive games.
Manchester City is not inferior to Chelsea in terms of ball possession, but unlike last season when their offensive ability was too poor, this season with the joining of Su Dong, Manchester City's offense has become very sharp.
The first round was a 3-0 victory, and the second round was a 4-0 victory, which made Manchester City only behind Chelsea after two rounds of league games, and they were at a disadvantage in terms of goals.
But you have to know that Manchester City's opponents are Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool, both of which are strong teams capable of challenging for the Premier League title, while Chelsea's opponents are West Bromwich Albion and Wigan Athletic, which are obviously much weaker.
This made several Chelsea players in the box feel unbelievable.
Who would have thought that Manchester City would perform so strongly in the new season?
I originally thought that Chelsea was good enough, but I didn't expect Manchester City's performance to be no less impressive.
"Su Dong is Su Dong. No matter where he goes, he is still Su Dong!" Drogba exclaimed.
He really admires Su Dong.
When he was playing for Marseille, he competed with Su Dong in the Champions League. He respected and feared Su Dong.
Even after he achieved success at Chelsea, he still couldn't beat Su Dong.
It has long been no secret that Drogba wants to surpass Su Dong, but he has to admit that even in the scorer list, the possibility of surpassing Su Dong is very low, and the time may even be very short.
Drogba fought hard to score five goals and make three assists in the first two rounds, while Su Dong looked very relaxed, scoring four goals and making three assists. He also traveled to Romania to play a game in the middle of the week, where he also scored two goals and made one assist.
After the start of the league, Chelsea can take it easy with one game per week, but Manchester City also has to play a game in the middle of the week due to the qualifiers, which puts them under more pressure in the game.
Anyone who has never played two games in a week will never understand that kind of pressure.
The most intuitive feeling is that after Chelsea plays against Wigan Athletic, they can have a day off today. After Manchester City plays against Liverpool tonight, they will continue training tomorrow to prepare for the second round of the Europa League qualifiers in the middle of the week.
For a team that plays two games a week, 996 is indeed a blessing.
"Didier, you have to work harder, he will catch up with you soon!" Ashley Cole said with a laugh.
"Su Dong is really amazing. He didn't need to adapt at all and integrated into the Premier League right away."
"Who says not? Sometimes I think about it, he went from Portugal to La Liga, from La Liga to the Bundesliga, and now to the Premier League. Does he need to adapt? It seems that wherever he goes, he is the core and the whole team revolves around him."
"That's his advantage, because he is the core, so naturally he doesn't need to adapt."
"It's not that simple. If the core didn't need to adapt, there wouldn't be so many high-priced parallel imports in the world."
"Then tell me, why did Su Dong perform so well?"
In the box, everyone from Chelsea was talking about Su Dong.
This is also the hottest topic in the Premier League right now.
As the world's top football player, Su Dong's joining Manchester City was interpreted by the outside world as his desire to retrace Maradona's path to becoming the best player in Naples, so many people are looking forward to whether he can succeed. Judging from the performance in the first two rounds, Manchester City is still very strong.
Especially Guardiola's tactics, after getting strong reinforcements such as Sudon, Toni Kroos, Pepe and Marcelo, the overall strength has been further improved.
In the match against Liverpool, Guardiola passed and controlled the ball, constantly pulling Liverpool's defense left and right, and looking for loopholes. It was simply impossible to defend against, and it could even be said to be chilling.
Su Dong is undoubtedly Manchester City's best player, as well as the most critical and important player.
Why is it that every time he joins a new team, he is able to succeed? When Zidane joined Real Madrid, he needed a half-year adaptation period, so why didn't Su Dong need one? People obviously lack an answer to this question.
There was a brief silence in the box. As players, it was difficult for them to answer this question.
"Because he is very comprehensive, excellent enough in all aspects!"
This sudden remark surprised all the Chelsea players in the box.
When I turned around, I found that the person who spoke was Paulo Ferreira.
This player from Porto in the Portuguese Super League was often "bullied" by Su Dong on the court.
Later, according to what Cristiano Ronaldo revealed in an interview, he and Su Dong both enjoyed "bullying" Paulo Ferreira on the court, saying that he was a bullied young wife, and that he would marry Cristiano Ronaldo and have children for Su Dong...
When it comes to "deep hatred", who can compare to Paulo Ferreira? This is related to the innocence of a lifetime! But now, he actually said that Su Dong is good enough and comprehensive. Is he sure he is not speaking in a sarcastic way?
Everyone present were the world's top professional players. After a little thought, they immediately understood what Ferreira meant.
Since his debut, Su Dong has always been known for his all-round performance.
But his comprehensiveness is completely different from that of others.
Su Dong is the kind of person who gets 99 points in every subject.
Speed, technique, shooting, dribbling, breakthrough, awareness, strength, endurance...
Some things may not seem like a big deal if you don't think about them on a daily basis, but if you really think about them deeply, they can really make you collapse.
Because they can easily find that Su Dong is the best in every aspect.
Such a player is simply like a BUG!
He shouldn't have appeared in this world, but he did.
Maradona was limited by his height and strength, but what about Su Dong?
There is a saying that goes very well: comprehensive technology will bring richness to tactics.
When Su Dong is comprehensive enough, he doesn't need to adapt to anything at all. He can deal with any situation and emergency with ease. This is a disaster for other less comprehensive players, but for him, it is no big deal.
What is even more desperate is that Su Dong is not only more comprehensive and better than everyone else, but also works harder than everyone else.
According to media reports, after joining Manchester City, Su Dong is still the first one to arrive at Carrington every day and the last one to leave. His private coaching team is still providing services for him, day after day, for many years.
The difference from when he was in Bayern is that now he is picked up and dropped off by a driver hired by Manchester City.
His fiancée went to study at Oxford University.
Speaking of which, this is another enviable thing.
Looking at the world of football, is there anyone whose wife or girlfriend is more beautiful than Su Dong's fiancée? Who has the education and talent of Su Dong's fiancée?
Thinking of this, everyone in the Chelsea box suddenly lost interest.
It's so despairing!
…
It was not known how long the silence lasted before captain John Terry coughed loudly.
"Didier, you have to work harder. Our whole team supports you. You can't let Su Dong catch up with you no matter what. You have to save face for us and can't lose!" Terry said in a deep voice.
Everyone was also aroused and nodded immediately.
"That's right. We might not be able to defeat him in a one-on-one fight, but is it possible that even if the whole team comes together, we still won't be able to defeat him?"
"That's right, our whole team supports you, Didier." Malouda also expressed his opinion.
All the players present have played for Chelsea for many years. They are very familiar with each other, get along well with each other, and are very dependent on Chelsea. Naturally, they all hope that Drogba can maintain the lead over Su Dong and win for Chelsea.
"Our first game against Manchester City this season will be away. If we can maintain our lead over Manchester City, it will be more beneficial for our away games," Terry analyzed.
Everyone thought it made sense.
This kind of strong dialogue often not only examines the on-the-spot performance of the two teams, but also the entire league background behind the game, that is, the team's ranking and championship situation.
Manchester City is now in the limelight as it has repeatedly defeated Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool, two strong teams, but its shortcomings are also obvious, that is, they have more game tasks and greater pressure.
Chelsea's situation will be better. The schedule is very favorable. They basically did not encounter strong opponents in the first five rounds, so they can continue to run in and adjust their status through the games, and then start from the sixth round to face their opponents with their best side.
"Before the sixth round, you'd better suppress Su Dong. In this way, he will definitely be more anxious, which is good for us." Terry continued.
For a scorer, mentality is undoubtedly very important.
Many players' goal drought often does not come from the physical level, but from the mental level.
It's like a layer of window paper that will break with a poke, but before it breaks, it will make you completely unable to see the other side clearly.
Seeing his teammates’ strong support, Drogba stopped talking.
"Okay! For so many years, I have always wanted to have a good fight with Su Dong. Before, whether in Marseille or in our team, I have never defeated him. But this time, it's a rare opportunity for him to come to the Premier League and to our home court. There is no reason to let him go!"
When Drogba said this, he stood up excitedly and waved his hand, "Next, try your best to pass the ball to me. I will definitely not leave any chance for Su Dong!"
