Chapter 258 Harry Kane comes from behind?

"Wowww!!"

After completing the pass, he looked up and saw Cresswell and Ogbonna, two defensive players, right in front of Jiang Yuan, ready to block Jiang Yuan's passing route.

West Ham United players are very familiar with Jiang Yuan's characteristics. Cresswell stood at the baseline and Ogbonna stood in the middle, giving Jiang Yuan no chance at all.

"later!"

Ivanovich behind him called out and said that he could cooperate with Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan did not look back at Ivanovich, but he noticed the gap between Cresswell and Ogbonna.

"Jiang Yuan! Pass back to Ivanovic, Ivanovic pass straight!"

"Oh my god, Jiang Yuan suddenly accelerated and passed between two West Ham United defenders."

"Haha, Jiang Yuan's exaggerated starting speed made it difficult for West Ham United's defenders to react."

"Rushing to the perimeter of the penalty area, Ibrahimovic is pressing forward, West Ham United's defense in the penalty area is very dense"

"Inverted triangle!"

"Fabregas, just give it a smack!"

"A world-class goal! This is a world-class goal! A world-class goal from Fabregas!"

“GOOOOO—AAAAAAAAA—LLLLLLLLL!!!!”

“an absolutely wonder goal!!! (Undoubtedly a super goal)”

“from Cesc Fàbregas!!!!!”

The director gave a replay. Fabregas faced Jiang Yuan's inverted triangle pass, rushed forward and kicked a low ball, which went right through Ogbonna's waist.

There is no doubt that Fabregas's shot was a lucky one, but it is often these lucky shots that can become wonderful world-class goals.

In the 80th minute, Chelsea scored a world-class goal by Fabregas and took the lead again 2:1!

"Ceske, wonderful!"

Zouma ran over, grabbed Fabregas' hair and started rubbing it hard, then Jiang Yuan and Oscar. Fortunately, the Spaniard's hair was not long, so no matter what his teammates did, there would be no problem.

"Roar--!!!"

Fabregas roared, grabbed Jiang Yuan's shoulders with both hands, and pulled Jiang Yuan to his chest with a sudden force, and the two of them collided with each other.

Fabregas knew very well that his world-class volley was amazing, but without the passing and running cooperation between Jiang Yuan and Ivanovic, he would not have been able to get such a comfortable shot. You know, Jiang Yuan's attraction to West Ham United players is simply ridiculous. Because of Noble's deep defense, Fabregas was unguarded during the entire offensive process.

I can only say that with such a winger who is a magnet, Fabregas has a great time playing as a defensive midfielder!
After the score was 2:1, West Ham United's high morale seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water. Bilic was still directing the team outside the field, but the players on the field were no longer in good shape.

In a football match, what is tested before 70 minutes is technique, while what is tested after 70 minutes is willpower and endurance. The Hammers have now lost the passion they had at the beginning of the second half, the stimulation of adrenaline and thyroid hormone, and the players are beginning to feel an unprecedented fatigue.

On the contrary, the home team Chelsea became more and more courageous, gradually taking control of the situation on the field and successfully recovering the average ball possession rate that was originally lagging behind.

Mourinho sat back on the bench and looked at Leon Brown next to him with a smile: "Man, the game is over"

"..."

“Beep, beep—!”

"Okay, dear audience friends, referee Bobby Medley blew the whistle to end the game. In the end, the home team Chelsea won the game with Fabregas's two goals."

"We want to congratulate Chelsea, but after this, we also hope that Mourinho will pay attention to the team's current problems"

"When facing top teams or even mid-tier Premier League teams, Chelsea's performance is very unstable. We say Chelsea can beat a few relegation teams, but if they want to win the championship, this level is totally insufficient."

"In today's game, we can see that Chelsea's control over the midfield is very weak. After the introduction of Ibrahimovic, Chelsea's attack line is deeper, forcing the midfielders to move forward, which also brings some problems."

"Because the attacking line is deep, Chelsea's backcourt and midfield are disconnected!"

"The season has entered its final stage, and Mourinho must come up with some solutions now, otherwise the championship situation will not be optimistic."

……

"Great!"

Mourinho took the initiative to hug Fabregas. As the scorer of the goal, Fabregas' performance in this game is definitely worthy of recognition.

Did the team lose the ball due to mistakes in the first half? Sorry, this problem no longer exists after Fabregas scored a world wave.

The pain of failure only needs to be mentioned briefly, but the glory of victory deserves to be praised forever.

“Thanks to this guy!”

Fabregas hugged Jiang Yuan and after confirming that William had returned to the locker room, he said with a smile: "This guy's breakthrough ability is much stronger than William's!"

After hearing this, Jiang Yuan didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

"Oh, you know, the most outstanding thing about Chelsea's striker is his personal ability!"

Mourinho and Jiang Yuan high-fived.

……

Tottenham Hotspur legend Gary Mabbutt: Kane's goal-scoring ability is better than Jiang, and Mourinho has a big problem in the use of players. A player who is not yet an adult should not start in every game. This is not good for the player's future.

Well-known influencer on Football World: The International Olympic Committee followed Jiang Yuan’s personal Weibo account, and also followed Qingshan Middle School men’s football team. Do I need to say more about the meaning behind this?
……

In an unknown villa in the suburbs of London, Mourinho and Abramovich sat side by side on the sofa, and in front of the coffee table were three Nordic dancers playing with poles.

"Mr. Roman"

The butler came in and poured a glass of red wine for Abramovich and Mourinho respectively. Abramovich shook the glass and then raised it: "Leroy Musigny from 2000, Jose, I told you, we are good friends, cheers to our friendship!"

Abramovich tapped the wine glass in Mourinho's hand.

Mourinho took a sip and said, "Musigny's collection value is more important. The wine is very fragrant, but it doesn't taste as good as Conti. What do you think?"

"Wow"

Abu put the wine glass back on the coffee table: "I don't think so. In my opinion, Musigny is always the best red wine. I don't like Conti. You know, the red wine from Romanee is too delicate."

"Haha, I almost forgot you're Russian. You guys like strong stuff."

Mourinho waved his hand and did not drink the wine in the glass directly. Instead, he put the glass on the coffee table like Abramovich did. Then, he crossed his arms over his chest and said, "...I don't think I'm here to drink."

"Nonono, this is just a chat between friends. You are my friend, and I buy you a drink. This is normal."

Abu pointed to the front of the coffee table, where three white women with good figures were taking off their clothes little by little.

Then he looked at Mourinho with a faint smile on his face: "Anyone you like?"

"I have a nice body, but I am past the age where I like this."

Mourinho picked up the glass again to ease the embarrassment.

"No, I'm three years younger than you, and I'm still very capable. Last week, I picked three women every day after dinner. The doctor said I need to exercise, and I'm willing to listen to the doctor's advice."

Abu's words were somewhat exaggerated. Three women in one night does not mean three times in one night. There is a big difference between the two.

Mourinho said with a serious expression: "Well, Roman, I think you must have misunderstood what the doctor meant. You can go play golf, which is a sport suitable for old people like us."

"Old man? I'm only 50, still young, I can still make a lot of money. Besides... my dream hasn't come true yet."

dream?

"Roman, do you still have dreams?"

"Hahaha!"

Abramovich laughed and waved his hand to signal the three dancers to leave the room: "I should have told you about my football dream. I was deeply shocked by Manchester United, so I want to turn Chelsea into a super club like Manchester United!"

"what?"

Mourinho stood up from the sofa: "Roman, you say you know a lot about football, but the fact is that you don't. I have to tell you that Manchester United's foundation is very terrifying. Look at Manchester City, they won three championships, but it's useless. Manchester United's position in the Premier League is unshakable. Manchester City can't do it, and Chelsea can't do it either."

"and……"

Having said that, Mourinho suddenly paused.

Abu made a "please" gesture: "Jose, just keep talking, don't consider my feelings, I would rather see the real you"

"You want Chelsea to become a super club, but you are not willing to spend even 2000 million in the winter transfer window"

"..."

"You don't have to keep mentioning this to me. Dongchuang's transfer budget is just like that."

Abramovich had no expression on his face. He picked up the bottle and refilled his glass. "You wanted Zlatan, and you got Zlatan in the end. Your ultimate goal was achieved. Isn't that enough?"

"I still need Kante!"

Mourinho shouted: "We bought a center forward, the attack line is pushed forward, our backcourt and midfield are out of touch, we need a midfielder with very strong running ability. Kante, N'Golo Kante... He meets my requirements"

After that, Mourinho's excitement subsided, so he sat back in his chair and apologized to Abramovich: "Sorry, I shouldn't have said this to you."

"Well, I think this matter has passed. But... I don't think buying players all the time is the solution. A qualified coach should make good use of the people he has, instead of... you know"

Abu shook the glass in his hand and sniffed it. "Hmm, the aroma is very suitable. Jose, do you really not like this wine?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Roman, I will try to like this wine"

Abu raised his glass: "Well, have a nice day!"

……

Mourinho walked out of Abramovich's villa alone, and Brown was waiting for him in the passenger seat of the Jaguar. It was drizzling, so Brown simply held an umbrella to pick up Mourinho. "Well, it looks like the chat wasn't very pleasant. I knew that Roman's visit to you was not for good. Is he putting pressure on you again?"

Brown held an umbrella and waited for Mourinho to get into the driver's seat before leaving.

boom!
"Lyon"

Mourinho turned to look at Brown: "Roman told me to use his own people well. This is what a qualified coach should do. What do you think..."

"what?"

Brown leaned back and said: "He can't do this. We need more strong players, Lukaku, Kante, we want them all, and in this summer window."

Kante and Lukaku are Chelsea's two summer transfer targets. Although there is Ibrahimovic, Mourinho still hopes to have a young center forward to rotate.

There is also Kante. Under the center forward system, Chelsea must buy a defensive midfielder with strong backfield coverage capabilities, and it would be best if he can also take into account the advancement, which is commonly known as a sweeping defensive midfielder.

At present, there are two best options, Casemiro from Real Madrid and Kante from Leicester City. Both of them can make up for Chelsea's current shortcomings.

Fabregas and Matic have strong intercepting abilities, but they are no longer able to support Chelsea to move forward.

The chances of buying Casemiro are slim, but Kante is still worth looking forward to.

"I think so too"

Mourinho was in no hurry to start the car: "You know, capitalists are like that. Roman wants to do the biggest thing with the least money. But I think what he said makes sense..."

"Which sentence?"

"Making good use of your own people is what makes a qualified coach"

Well!
Brown shrugged: "You want to prove your ability to him too much, but I don't think you need to do that because you have already proved it last season. We are the league champions."

"Of course, you are still the Champions League champion"

说到欧冠冠军的时候，穆里尼奥不由自主地抬起脑袋。葡萄牙人生涯一共有2次欧冠冠军，分别是03-04赛季的波尔图和09-10赛季的国际米兰

Mourinho is not a very good football player, but he is really good as a coach.

"What I care about most is whether we can get enough budget in the summer transfer window. Lukaku and Kante are not cheap..."

Mourinho looked embarrassed. Judging from the club's current results, it was almost certain that he would stay next season. In this case, he had to consider the future of the club.

The problem is that the boss and the employees have different positions. The employees want to buy new equipment to improve work efficiency, but the boss thinks that the existing equipment is sufficient.

“Don’t be nervous”

Brown put his hand on Mourinho's shoulder: "We have had a good season so we have the transfer budget. The only thing left is to play well in the next games."

"you're right!"

Mourinho nodded and started the car.

Boom——! Puff puff puff!

……

At night, Jiang Yuan was lying on the bed in his room, tapping his thumbs on the screen of his mobile phone. The interface showed Jiang Yuan's WhatsApp account, and the note of the chat partner was Casemiro.

The time difference between the UK and Spain is 1 hour. It is now 8 o'clock in the evening in the UK, which is 9 o'clock in the evening in Spain.

Jiang Yuan seldom takes the initiative to chat with others. This time he went to Casemiro with a mission.

Mourinho hopes Jiang Yuan can persuade Casemiro to come to Chelsea!
[Carlos, are you interested in coming to Chelsea? ]

Jiang Yuan slowly typed these words in the chat box, but did not click send.

He promised Mourinho to help say a few words, but he just didn't know how to say it. From Jiang Yuan's own perspective, he really hopes Casemiro can come to Chelsea. But on the other hand, as a friend, Jiang Yuan doesn't really want Casemiro to stir up Chelsea's mess.

Staying in Real Madrid should be the best destination for Casemiro.

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.

Jiang Yuan deleted the draft in the chat box bit by bit and typed a new sentence.
【Carlos, good evening! 】

It was 9 o'clock in the evening, and Jiang Yuan knew that Casemiro would not sleep at this time.

It didn't work. Less than 10 seconds later, Real Madrid's Brazilian midfielder sent a reply to Jiang Yuan.

As the two chatted, Jiang Yuan had no intention of asking Casemiro whether he wanted to transfer, but Casemiro took the initiative to chat.

[Jiang, Florentino asked me if I had any thoughts about Real Madrid]

?

Casemiro's sudden message left Jiang Yuan a little unresponsive.

[Hmm... Let's not consider it for now.]

Jiang Yuan’s reply was quite decisive. Chelsea is now in its rising period, but the team is still in an unstable state.

If he transfers away at this time, wouldn't that make him a complete ungrateful person?

It is true that honor is important, but Jiang Yuan is a Chelsea player after all, and he must do something for the team at this critical moment.

[Is that so? That’s fine.]

Jiang Yuan refused quickly, so Casemiro stopped asking. He asked with a mission. In Casemiro's opinion, because of the presence of Ronaldo and Bale, the possibility of Jiang Yuan being willing to transfer to Real Madrid was almost zero.

[By the way, didn’t you play on the left side before? Why did you play on the right side yesterday? ]

Casemiro must be watching the Premier League, because the Brazilian can tell you everything about Chelsea's recent situation.

In Casemiro's words, watching more games of strong teams in other leagues will help in dealing with opponents in the Champions League.

[Wow, Carlos, we are in the same half zone. It’s not good for you to ask about our tactics like this, right?]

[Haha, I don’t mean anything else. If there are any tactical arrangements, I won’t ask.]

Casemiro laughed and forgot about it.

If Real Madrid and Chelsea both win in the quarter-finals, then he and Jiang Yuan will meet in the semi-finals.

Of course, the prerequisite for Chelsea and Real Madrid to meet is that Chelsea can beat Manchester City. After a wave of injuries, the Blue Moon's strength has now returned to its peak, and it is completely different from the Manchester City in the FA Cup match.

In April, Chelsea will face the real Blue Moon at Stamford Bridge. The worst thing is that Jiang Yuan cannot play in the first round because of accumulated yellow cards!
The issue of Casemiro is somewhat sensitive. Although he was a teammate in Porto before, Jiang Yuan did not reveal anything about Chelsea's technical and tactical aspects for the sake of confidentiality.

……

Time flies, and it is almost the evening of April 4st, which is April 1nd Beijing time.

After the training, the players went to the cafeteria to eat one after another. Jiang Yuan was about to follow Zouma to the cafeteria but was stopped by Mourinho.

"Have you asked Casemiro what he thinks about coming to Chelsea?"

Jiang Yuan found a place on the grass and sat down: "From what he said, he doesn't really want to come."

"I knew it"

Mourinho sighed: "The focus of the transfer is still Kante, but this is also good, there is no need to hesitate in the summer transfer window"

According to the discussion of the team management, Chelsea's budget may be insufficient if Lukaku + Casemiro are bought, but the money is enough to buy Lukaku + Kante.

Since Casemiro has no intention of coming to Chelsea, Mourinho has no choice.

"..."

"Hahaha, I haven't eaten much of your Chinese delicacies!"

Mourinho and Jiang Yuan chatted on the grass for more than half an hour, from transfers to tactics, and from tactics to life.

Because the topics were very diverse, Jiang Yuan always felt that Mourinho was deliberately stalling for time, but when he thought about it carefully, Mourinho should have no reason to delay, so Jiang Yuan did not ask at the beginning.

But now, Jiang Yuanzheng couldn't help it, and the reason was very simple, he was a little hungry.

"that……"

Jiang Yuan licked his lips and said, "Jose, why don't we go to the cafeteria first and talk while we're there. There's no need to stay outside."

"what?"

Mourinho glanced at the Vacheron Constantin watch on his left hand and blinked: "Well, it's almost done."

"Almost, what's almost?"

"It's almost time to eat, let's go to the cafeteria!"

Mourinho patted Jiang Yuan on the shoulder, then stood up with Jiang Yuan.

On the way to the cafeteria, Jiang Yuan kept looking at Mourinho's body up and down. After hesitating for a while, he suddenly said, "Jose, what's wrong with you today?"

Mourinho turned his head: "Why do you ask?"

Jiang Yuan spread his hands and said, "You just asked me how my math grades were in elementary school. Any normal coach wouldn't ask such a question, right?"

Jiang Yuan was also speechless. The questions Mourinho had just discussed with him were very strange, just like the feeling of being forced to talk when there was no topic on a blind date.

"Oh, you said this!"

Mourinho suddenly realized what was going on and slowly pushed open the door of the cafeteria. It was pitch black inside.

"Oh my god, you're not going to eat?"

Jiang Yuan felt strange when he walked over just now. There were many glass windows in Cobham Canteen, but tonight there was no light coming from inside the canteen.

Is there no one eating in the cafeteria today?

Just then, the lights in the cafeteria suddenly lit up, followed by two explosions.

boom!
boom!
"Happy Birthday Jiang!"
