Chapter 121 The sword is out of its sheath and its sharp edge is revealed!

"The ball has gone in!!! Li Mo, it's Li Mo again! He alone once again staged a good show of challenging the opponent's defense! If Sheffield United wants to break the game, they have to look to Li Mo!!!"

In the Sina Sports studio, Zhan Jun's voice was high and powerful, his face was red and he was very excited.

"Hey, this ball, Li Mo ate Bosingwa alive. As for Ivanovic, we often say that he is fast and strong, but after Li Mo and Bosingwa played with strength,

Ivanovic plays with skills! Hey, our Xiao Li is very smart, and the one behind him who gets rid of the pass also shows his skills. In this attack, Xiao Li's performance can be said in one word. Let's watch the replay later. Can we

You can see a lot of things.”

Zhang Lu was smiling happily on the sidelines. Commenting on Sheffield United's games this season, there was only one word to describe the feeling he and Zhan Jun had: great!

Especially when they see Li Mo perform well every time, they feel extremely proud.

The greater the pressure, the better Li Mo performed. His ability to withstand pressure was simply amazing, so awesome!

"Haha, before the game, Boas showed his interest in Li Mo unabashedly, but now, we can see the anxiety in Boas's eyes. Li Mo encouraged his teammates with this assist and celebration.

He also responded with his actions. It seems that Chelsea should be careful in this game. The morale of Sheffield United is high and it seems that they have no intention of stopping."

Zhan Jun explained, although he felt very happy in his heart, he still tried to maintain a neutral attitude in his words.

Although domestic fans hope that Li Mo can transfer to a real giant in the future, the Premier League season has just begun. If Li Mo leaves now, it would be really unkind.

After all, Sheffield United has trained Li Mo for so many years, and now it is time for him to help the team gain more points and strive to avoid relegation as soon as possible.

If Li Mo transfers to Chelsea now, it would indeed not be in line with the Chinese concept of repaying kindness.

But now Li Mo has told everyone with his actions that not only will he not leave Sheffield United, he is also very annoyed with Villas-Boas's pre-match behavior. His explosive performance in the opening and passionate celebrations are very manly.

This is undoubtedly a very fan-attracting move. Not only domestic but also many foreign fans who are following the game are attracted by Li Mo's personal charm and leadership.

Look at the excited eyes of those Sheffield United players looking at Li Mo. This is a true leader. Even though he is still young, he is very tough and classy in maintaining the team!

At this time in the stadium, Speed ​​tried to calm himself down, and the start was fantastic, but this actually created a problem for Sheffield United.

Should we keep this one-goal advantage, retreat and defend honestly, or should we continue to put pressure on Chelsea and try to score another goal?

Both options are risky. After all, Chelsea has too many stars. If any one of them breaks out, he may create opportunities for the team like Li Mo.

However, Speed ​​only hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to continue applying pressure!

After walking to the sidelines and shouting for the players to stay calm, Speed ​​tore off his tie and then pushed forward towards Chelsea's side with both hands.

"Keep your passion, keep pressing, don't give them a chance to breathe!"

This move is so cool!

The enthusiasm of the Sheffield United fans in the stands was once again ignited, but the stunned Chelsea fans also recovered at this time.

Speed's actions undoubtedly angered them.

"Shit! You are just lucky. You are too arrogant. You are facing Chelsea!"

"Come out! If you don't press it out, you are sons of bitches!"

"Fuck you! Fuck the Sheffielders!"

Countless insults were directed at Speed ​​on the sidelines.

The catcalls, middle fingers, and vulgar words made Speed ​​laugh heartily.

Who is he, he is Premier League tough guy Gary Speed!

Faced with such a scene, not only was he not angry, but he felt cordial and nostalgic.

Many years ago, he continued to grow up in the face of such scenes. After becoming a coach, he actually faced such scenes very rarely.

But now, facing the anger of his opponent again, scenes from his time in the Premier League flashed through his mind.

"I really miss you. It's a pity that I can't slap you in the face myself anymore, but my boys will help me do it, again and again!"

The Sheffield United players on the field were very angry, and their boss Speed ​​was humiliated by numerous abuses and gestures, although in the professional arena, such scenes are commonplace.

But it’s okay for them, but not for their coach and boss!

After the kick-off again, the Sheffield United players launched a more active and decisive press.

They seemed to be even more crazy and angry. Li Mo once again used his extraordinary interception and grabbing skills in the frontcourt, coupled with Vardy and Medel's tireless running in a wide area to apply pressure, Ramire

Si and Malouda could only pass the ball back to Mikel again and again.

Even Lampard had to drop back to the midfielder position to help with the ball.

Now Chelsea players miss Joe Cole very much. If Joe Cole is still there, Chelsea can easily get rid of Sheffield United's pressing by relying on his skills.

Or go back a few years, if Essien and Ballack were still healthy, and paired with Lampard, how could they be so embarrassed by the opponent's pressing?

It's a pity that there is no if. Chelsea's midfield currently lacks delicate technical players, and their midfield hardness and confrontation ability are not as good as in previous years.

In the throes of such a lineup, facing the crazy pressure from Sheffield United players, Lampard missed his old partners extremely much.

But no matter what, he must withstand it, and with Mikel, when the Sheffield United players are exhausted, otherwise if another goal is scored, the situation will really be ruined.

Relying on Lampard's retreat to get the ball, Chelsea's midfielder finally managed to stabilize the situation, but they were still unable to effectively organize an offense at this moment.

Occasionally, the long passes to Drogba were interfered by Maguire, or the possession of the ball was destroyed by Sheffield United's backcourt players.

When the ball is given again, Sheffield United players, including Li Mo and Vardy, will rush back to their own half and try to force Chelsea's ball carrier back again.

The players of Sheffield United are indeed as Li Mo said in his locker room speech. In this game, they are a united whole. Whether they are forwards, midfielders or defenders, they are all trying to give everything for the team's victory.

After seizing the ball several times, several Sheffield United frontcourt players who had just finished pressing the ball pressed hard again and made interspersed runs.

Li Mo's breakthrough with the ball against Bosingwa was very successful, forcing Ramirez to retreat to help Bosingwa relieve the defensive pressure. Mikel on the other side also had to keep an eye on Li Mo's ball.

This resulted in Chelsea's backcourt players having to face the same situation that Stoke City's players faced in the last game.

Should we resolutely double-team Li Mo?

Li Mo held the ball and attacked Chelsea's defensive weak side resolutely. If he didn't double-team, Li Mo would have to break through Bosingwa again sooner or later. If he double-teamed, then Li Mo's threatening pass would come.

Li Mo has already contributed three assists in three games!

Moreover, the more Chelsea play against Sheffield United, the more they feel evil!

Other promoted teams, such as Rangers, are lucky enough to have Taarabt. Teams promoted from the English Championship do not have so many strong players.

But here at Sheffield United, apart from Li Mo, the other players are actually very good!

Vardy's opening goal was through continuous movement and finally getting rid of Ashley Cole, and then he had the chance to attack the goal.

Being able to get rid of Ashley Cole through movement is worthy of the attention of Chelsea's defense.

Moreover, his shooting skills were very good. Later, there was another sudden shot that hit the goal frame, which tested Hilario's saving ability.

Medel's defensive ability is absolutely top-notch in football, causing Chelsea's star midfielders to be annoyed.

Drinkwater's organization and scheduling in the backcourt is quite general-like, he also works hard on defense, and his defense covers a large area.

Montgomery played steadily and had excellent interception ability.

Matt Ritchie is good both offensively and defensively. In this game, he didn't push forward very much. Together with Bertrand, they protected Sheffield United's left side very well.

Trippier on the right is also able to move up and down, but Malouda is unable to secure his position against him.

Needless to say, goalkeeper Given is one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League in the past ten years.

As for Maguire and Matthew Lowton, their central defender combination has a strong frontal defensive ability and a strong tracking and fighting ability. Drogba has not been able to perform well so far. It has been seen that the Sheffield United central defender combination has great ability.

Strength.

"Damn it! Where did Sheffield United find these people? Their coaching staff has such a good vision!"

Terry stood behind and clearly saw the situation on the court. He couldn't help but said with a headache, and Ashley Cole on the side also nodded in agreement.

The talent of Sheffield United's players is really good to the naked eye. If you deal with an average mid-table team and kill their core players, the other players will be easy to deal with.

But here at Sheffield United, they have been hesitant about whether to double-team Li Mo completely.

Because even if Li Mo is double-teamed, other Sheffield United players still pose a great threat. If Li Mo really passes one or two good goals by then, they may even lose the ball!

Amidst the hesitation of the Chelsea players, the game time also came to the 36th minute of the first half.

Except for the opening goal, Sheffield United quickly launched several counterattacks after seizing the ball.

Vardy once took a shot in the penalty area, but unfortunately the angle was a little bit wrong and was confiscated by Hilario.

Medel had a long shot from outside the penalty area, which was slightly higher than the crossbar.

Li Mo once took a shot after dribbling, but Terry blocked it with his body.

Chelsea, on the other hand, only got one chance to shoot on target due to the relentless pressure of the Sheffield United players.

Drogba headed the ball across Sheffield United's defensive third. Torres, under the interference of Bertrand, took the ball and shot from the edge of the penalty area, but was saved by the focused Given.

Then Chelsea didn't play any good offense, and the entire game was severely disrupted by Sheffield United's high-intensity pressing.

At this time, it was approaching the end of the first half, and Villas-Boas was already urgently arranging tactics for the second half. After all, the Chelsea players on the field were all experienced veterans. At this time, he didn't need to say much to stabilize the form and delay it until

Intermission.

But at this time, Bosingwa made a mistake in passing the ball under the pressure of Matrich, and actually passed the ball to Li Mo, who was running horizontally. At this time, Ivanovic was further away from the football than Li Mo!
