"The last time Chelsea won the Community Shield was back in 2005, and their opponent was also Arsenal."
"Li Kang's Blues career is off to a great start!"
"Congratulations to Chelsea and best wishes to Arsenal!"
The commentator picked his feet and suddenly remembered something: the clubs that have won the Community Shield in the past five years have never won the Premier League championship in the following season.
Another curse?
...
The old Gunners friends took turns hugging Li Kang.
There is no prejudice about winning or losing, just some words of encouragement.
Opponents on the field are friends off the field. This is the meaning of sportsmanship.
Especially Xhaka, who kept saying reluctantly:
"We are friends forever."
"The team position will not affect our friendship."
Looking back on the Gunners years, every time Li Kang was violated by his opponent, the Swiss midfielder always stepped forward immediately.
...
Courtois glanced disdainfully, silently took off his gloves and walked to the sideline.
Diego Costa raised his cell phone and said with a smile: "Tebow, we two were selected into the five major leagues and the inferior character lineup."
The corners of the Chelsea goalkeeper's mouth twitched.
Although he cuckolded his teammate De Bruyne, provoked Petr Cech, yin-yanged Mourinho, and beat the national team coach in the European Cup... Courtois still believes that he is not a bad character.
Diego Costa read out the squad with interest:
“A lineup with poor character.”
"Goalkeeper: Courtois."
"Defenders: Pepe, Martin Taylor, Broadford."
"Midfielder: Busquets, De Jong, Nainggolan, Shawcross, Fabregas."
"Forwards: myself, Suarez, Robin van Persie."
"The bench..."
"It's so fucking embarrassing, I don't want to be around those names."
...
After a while.
The staff set up the stage for the awards ceremony.
The winner of the Community Shield will not receive a trophy, but a shield.
A round shield engraved with three lions.
There is no championship bonus.
The £25,000 reward for each team is just a matter of process, and will eventually be donated by the club.
Part of the ticket and broadcast revenue from the game will be used for community welfare, and part will be donated to the Teenage Cancer Trust.
The award ceremony was very short.
When the two FA officials finished their brief walk, Wembley Stadium suddenly erupted in a salute.
Blue confetti fluttered in the wind like snowflakes.
Dino sprays champagne to add to the fun.
“Keep the Blue Flag Flying High!
"
Amidst the loud cheers.
Li Kang and Cahill raised the silver award shield together!
...
Tuchel walked through the tunnel and arrived at the post-match press conference.
Didn't indulge in the joy of winning the Community Shield.
The small book in his hand records the characteristics of the opponent in the first round of the Premier League. This guy is terrible. When he was in school, he would always finish his weekend homework on Friday night.
Bang bang bang!
The media reporters applauded and welcomed, their eyes full of expectation, and they all spoke enthusiastically.
"Mr. Tuchel, congratulations on winning your first championship trophy in London. You finally don't have to eat Klopp's leftovers!"
"You have never beaten Guardiola in the Bundesliga. Are you confident you can complete your revenge in the Premier League?"
"Why didn't you stick with a three-centre-back system?"
Tuchel thought for a while and picked the last question to answer.
"Chelsea's tactics are not static."
"Before each game, I will make corresponding deployments and may conduct large-scale personnel rotations."
"The competition in the Premier League has always been fierce, but Chelsea's starting point will be higher than other clubs..."
"Because...because we have Lee."
Bang bang bang!
The scene immediately burst into thunderous applause that lasted for a long time.
...
Winslington fans have mixed feelings.
In the past, when losing, they could still criticize Wenger and create a "wave of disfavor".
Now they are busy putting "Return Warmth" signs with Enrique's name on them.
BBC Football Studios.
Henry summarized after the game: "We need to give Enrique some time. Arsenal's paper strength is not bad. The main reason for losing is..."
Reinker quickly added: "It's because their opponent is Lee, who owns Chelsea! Once he steps onto the green field, he will make all players look mediocre!"
Henry: "..."
Hey hey hey, can you tell me some tactical information?
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand nodded and smiled, agreeing with this statement: "Lee and Pogba are the best midfielders of the new generation..."
Reinker immediately interrupted: "Remove the words Pogba and new generation!"
"Lee is a quality idol for teenagers around the world."
"He is low-key, friendly, and humble... He never puts his energy into picking up girls and changing his hairstyle!"
"I could feel his complicated emotions when he scored the Arsenal goal. He is a gentleman like me."
"Lee is a real Premier League star."
"Look forward to it, he is a treasure in the football world, and his historical status will be placed together with the names of those legendary midfielders!"
"When he retires..."
Henry and Ferdinand looked helpless and could only listen carefully to Reinker's praise.
...
Cobham training base.
With one week left before the start of the Premier League, Dino announced his disbandment and two-day holiday.
Diego Costa, Courtois and others immediately headed to the nightclub, shoulder to shoulder. Terry was still waiting for them at the same place.
Fabregas was envious, but it was a pity that he had to go home to be with his wife.
Samba Magic Wings - William, this South American doesn't seem to be interested in nightclubs. He, Kanter and Li Kang have made an appointment to play chess together tomorrow.
Azar started hell weight loss training.
Morata couldn't wait to fly to Turin to reunite with his wife.
certainly.
The most serious player in the Chelsea team is undoubtedly: David Luiz.
This guy is Brazilian.
I am 30 years old this year and still a virgin.
Great Magister.
He has emphasized more than once that he will keep his virginity until the wedding night.

after an hour.
Li Kang returned home.
The system prompt sounded quietly.
[Mission Completed: Guns and Fire.]
[Task receipt: Okay, you may have kicked Enrique out of class again...]
[Task reward: Arsenal·Platinum Treasure Chest.]
Kick Enrique out of class?
Li Kang had never thought about this matter... It should mean that he didn't think much about Enrique.
The platinum treasure chest is suspended in mid-air.
The prize pool panel is dazzling.
[Pires "Slow Horse on the Side Road" module.]
【Vieira's "Giant Sausage" module. 】
【Heleib "painter" module. 】
[Fàbregas’ “Golden Boy of Highbury” module.]
【Van Persie's "Robin Man" module (incomplete).】
【...】
Isn’t it the prefix of Arsenal legend?
Li Kang took a closer look and saw that the word "Legend" in the prefix of the treasure chest had disappeared without a trace.
[The treasure chest is opening... Congratulations on getting: Van Persie's "Non-Stop Ball" module! 】
[After seven years of recuperation in the Arsenal, Wenger never left me.]
【Who dares to stand upright with a sword? 】
[If there is one person who is loyal to Arsenal, it is me.]
[I will never renew my contract with Arsenal!]
[If I join another team and score against Arsenal, I will never celebrate.]
[Van Persie kills his old club Arsenal, kneels passionately, and lights up Old Trafford!]
[I love Manchester United deeply and came to Old Trafford just to help Manchester United win the championship!]
[You are right, Arsenal is just a baby team.]
[Haha, your Arsenal are going to play in the Europa League again? 】
[I owe Wenger too much...I'm sorry, I want to leave Fenerbahce. I can still gain a foothold in the five major leagues. I hope to return to Arsenal.]
Why does Van Persie have so many lines?
If this guy was mute, how could he have done so many bad things.
Li Kang shook his head and dispersed the mess of complicated emotions.
...
late at night.
The lights are still on in the Chelsea manager's office.
Tuchel is "torturing" members of the coaching staff.
"No, the data base is not sufficient. Try the deduction again."
"Boss..."
"Cheer up, we can't underestimate any opponent."
...
Two days later.
Chelsea players returned to Cobham training ground.
Tuchel gave everyone a book: "The Inner Game of Tennis".
The general content is: how athletes can improve their self-confidence and defeat their inner self-doubt and nervousness.
This is not the first case.
Because Tuchel likes to give books to players, he is called a book-gifting coach by fans.
"Our tactical system for the coming season has been laid down as a general framework."
"There is no need for high-position running and pressing!"
