This season, when we came to London, the players of Mallorca never had the same novelty as last time. In fact, Chelsea's location is relatively close to Arsenal, both in the northwest district of London. This area is also a place with relatively developed business in London. No wonder they can afford Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham, and it is a bit difficult to raise one Mallorca team in Mallorca...

"Chelsea's lineup is not particularly neat. Their main goalkeeper Cudicini has been confirmed to be unable to play due to injury. This is good news for us. Ambrosio will start in this game. The strength of this goalkeeper is not particularly outstanding, but he can only be considered relatively stable. However, Ranieri's coordination on defense is still quite good. Deselli has always maintained a high level. Although he is old, it is not easy to deal with. Terry's progress is obvious. The defense line formed by these two central defenders is quite outstanding. Marklele in front of them is also our old opponent. We are all very good at his defensive ability.

It is clear that such a triangle defensive lineup is Chelsea's strongest link. Compared with their mid-lane defense, their wing defense seems to be worse. Glenn Johnson and Wayne Bridge are both full-backs with strong offense and weak defense. Although they are not slow, they are better at defense. We can make more contributions on both sides. At the same time, Gala may also be the main force. He is a versatile player on the backline and can play on both sides. This defender has good physical fitness, but it also seems unstable. No matter which of these three people is the main force, we must use their wing to complete the attack. This is where we can use it."

"Marceler has already said that in the midfield, he was arranged to rest in the last Premier League game, Ranieri was preparing to focus his energy on this game, and Parker was also a very outstanding midfielder. Lampard's organizational ability is average, but his long shot is very distinctive, so Carlos should pay more attention to this. Veron has been given up by Chelsea now. Even if he comes on the court, his slow pace is out of place with Chelsea's style. It would be a mistake for him to go to the UK, even if he changes to an Italian head coach, he will hardly play in this game. Duff will be a main player in their midfield. The Irish winger is very fast. If Glenshare also plays, they have very fast players on both wings. This is for the sake of this.

It is not good for us to suppress them on the wing, so if we want to make a fuss in this game, in addition to the assists from the full-back, Kaka and Etoo's pulling side is also a very important thing. Crespo was injured in training, and I don't know how serious he would be injured, but Chelsea's forwards are also excellent now. Mutu, Crespo and Goodjohansen are good strikers, and we must pay attention to any two of them. If Mutu starts, I think they will only have one of their two wingers, because Mutu can also retreat to the midfield or play on the wing... Ranieri is different from other head coaches. He is an Italian and has his own uniqueness in the arrangement of tactics. Everything is still unknown now, and we need to consider everything."

After Jose said this, the assistant coaches smiled bitterly. Chelsea's tactics are not clear and not fixed this season. The addition of a large number of new players and the coaching characteristics of the tutors have greatly changed their tactics. The first team with as many as thirty people also allows Ranieri to be at ease in utilizing people. In terms of the full-back position, in addition to the three people Jose mentioned before, there are Nigerian Babayaro, midfielder Gremy and Dutchman Melchiot. In the midfield, Duff, Glenshare, Joe Cole, Crespo, Mutu, Haselbaink and Goodjohansen on the forward line are also qualified to play as the main force. It is really hard to guess what kind of main lineup Ranieri will send.

Ranieri doesn't seem to have planned to have a dignified game. He has never announced the starting lineup. It seems that he is planning to stay until the last few hours before announcing it. Compared with Chelsea, Mallorca's main lineup is relatively fixed.

"No matter how you rotate, there are a few points that will not change." Jose shook his head. Most of the assistant coaches can only provide ideas, and he is still the only one who can make the final decision. This is the responsibility of the head coach. During training, he can let the assistant coaches go and command the game. He can only rely on him.

"First of all, Deselli, Terry and Marklele will definitely be the absolute main players. To deal with them, they can only avoid it. It is not that they can't score goals when they attack head-on. However, scoring head-on goals on this defense line is not easy. Chelsea lost three games in the league and cup this season, and they lost on the wing. This is not that they don't want to solve it, but that they can't solve this problem, so we also have to make a fuss on the wing. Although they have six players who can play fullbacks, they are all players with strong offense and weak defense - only Melchiot and Gala are better at defense, but Melchiot is more suitable for activities in the middle, and Gala is also a time bomb, which is where we can use it. With our reputation in offense, I think Ranieri will treat it with caution, which is also his habit. Then it is normal for Gala to be a fullback on the wing."

"In the midfield, Marklele will definitely start. If it is for better defense, Parker may also occupy a starting position. He transferred to Chelsea in the winter. He is an excellent defensive midfielder. Although he is still young, he can fully form a barrier to the midfield with Marklele. If he starts, it will be more difficult for us to penetrate the goal in the middle, and it is not wise to fight head-on with the opponent. In this case, it will become our top priority."

Speaking of this, Jose sighed slightly. When the assistant coaches thought that Jose was having a headache about how to score a goal, Jose was thinking about the upcoming Iron Masters of Muscle Forest Chelsea. People say that Mourinho quickly built a strong Chelsea after taking over, but many of the Chelsea's foundations were left by Ranieli. He transformed Lampard from a midfielder to an offensive midfield that could score goals, and trained Terry - Terry had just entered the first team before Ranieli took over. He bought Marklele, laying the foundation for Chelsea's midfield defense, so that Mourinho could immediately form the top Chelsea after introducing several players!

This certainly shows Mourinho's excellence, but the defensive foundation that Ranieri has played in the past three years cannot be ignored. The tragic Ranieri always seems to play such a role. After Valencia laid the defensive foundation for two years, when he was most expected to achieve results, he didn't know why he chose to leave Valencia, who wanted to participate in the Champions League, and coach Atletico Madrid. As a result, Cooper successfully picked up the peach that was about to ripe - although Cooper did not win the championship in Valencia, and entering the Champions League final twice was already proud enough...

The same is true at Chelsea. It can only be said that some people are born lacking some luck and ability and are always unable to achieve sublimation...

Later, there was a saying on the forum in China that Ranieri, who is born with a bitter face, deserves to be a backup life. Of course, this is also a joke. Ancelotti is also a bitter face, but he won the championship in AC Milan and Chelsea. In addition to strength, he also depends on some luck.

After sighing in his heart and mourning for the pot-making maker, Jose began to refocus on tactics.

"We just said that if Mutu plays, then Chelsea's midfielder is likely to only have one winger, because Mutu can also play on the wing, so that they can strengthen the midfield's running and defensive ability. Ranieri attaches great importance to this point, so that we can basically find out Chelsea's starting lineup - goalkeeper Ambrosio, defenders Terry and Deselli play central defender, and the two full-backs are one of the middle between Gala and Bridge Johnson. In the midfield, there is

It may be that Marklele, Parker and Lampard appear in the middle, where Marklelele and Parker are in the back. Lampard breaks forward, so their offense will also be concentrated on the wing, because Lampard has average organizational ability, Mutu and a winger will become the main offensive player. If Crespo cannot play, Goodjohansen will be the main force. Italians like to use an impact center, Goodjohansen is more suitable than the old Hasselbainke."

"So who will that winger be?" Natal asked with a frown.

"It can only be Duff." Ngonga said, Duff is the best winger in Chelsea this season, whether it is Glenshare, who is popular among Chelsea fans or is hailed as England's most skilled genius in the past five years, his performance is not as good as him.

"Of course there is a second possibility, that is, Ranieri wants to eat us as soon as possible at home... In that case, Joe Cole may be the main force, using his technology and organization to complete the attack. Lampard is a finisher, so Joe Cole will get a lot of balls, and their midfield defense will also weaken a lot. When they use three midfield players, we mainly play on the wing, and when they send Joe Cole and Duff to attack the midfield, we combine the side and middle... There is no problem with this decision, right?"

Jose has analyzed the entire game situation like a detached cocoon. Of course, the assistant coaches will not have any doubts. Jose likes to listen to everyone's opinions in tactical arrangements, but the final decision was him, and he could only be him.

"Since that's the case, we're going to arrange training in this area. Whether it's full-back assists or Kakaetoora's side, we have to let the players know what they are going to do... That's it."

Jose waved his hand, and then the assistant coaches dispersed to do their own thing.

Only by becoming the head coach of a professional team can you know how tiring it is - collecting information, observing the opponent's recent status through video, understanding the characteristics of opponent players, making targeted arrangements... These things require a lot of energy to do. Although assistant coaches can do a lot of things, most of the things can still be done in person - if you have money, you can ask someone to cook for you, and if you set up a recipe, you can help you bring the food, but you can still eat it yourself. If you ask others to help you eat, it is not a recipe, but a sick person...

So the head coach is definitely not able to do it by watching the video and sending players. The game is ever-changing and there is no tactic to conquer the world. The more delicate the preparation, the easier it is to make the game have a better result.

However, although he was tired, Jose enjoyed this kind of life very much. The value of life was reflected in this place!
