The tender green branches and leaves were stained with crystal clear dew, and the dew reflected the figures running on the training ground.
The football rolled out of bounds.
Li Kang looked at Buffon, wearing Chelsea training clothes, walking from a distance.
The system prompt sounded quietly.
[It has been detected that the friendliness of this teammate towards you has reached the upper limit! It has overflowed!]
[Blue bond establishment: Dragon Vein Curse Lv3!]
[Introduction: In February 2012, at the San Siro Stadium, Buffon broke Milan’s dragon vein.]
[Curse effect: When fighting side by side with Buffon, the red and black soul in you will be extremely angry. When all AC Milan legendary modules are triggered, Buffon will briefly have the reaction arc and ground speed of 2012. 】
Li Kang: "..."
This curse is awesome.
Buffon has completed a transformation in recent years after his physical reaction declined significantly. He mostly resolves dangers through defensive positioning and anticipation. Fans rarely see his wonderful saves.
De Gea's highlight saves in several games will take Buffon a season to catch up with.
...
After simple greetings.
Bang bang bang.
Buffon clapped his hands and called several Chelsea defenders and goalkeepers together.
Cech smiled and spread a large tactical board on the floor. He didn't wear a tank hat today and he probably won't need to wear it in the future.
"We don't need to reinvent Chelsea's defensive system."
"You don't need to adapt to me."
"I'll accommodate you."
"We just need to unify our defensive thinking in details."
"This and this and that."
"..."
Several people had a lively discussion.
Buffon's voice was extremely loud, and he almost brought out Rudiger's accent when he spoke.
Tuchel stood aside, touching his chin with an expression of surprise.
That damn need for control has long since disappeared without a trace.
So fragrant.
Dino is taking notes seriously. He feels like a sponge, trying to absorb the Mourinho style mark, Kong's framework, and Apennine defensive ideas.
Cech has expressed his opinions from time to time.
Captain Cahill kept moving the magnetic flag, actively adapting to the differences in defensive concepts.
Several former top defensive players seemed to be building a "fortress."
Stay until lunch time.
Buffon has become a big brother in the minds of young players.
"Your idol is Ronaldo? I played against him many times... We were both very young back then."
"Don't worry, I will tell you those stories slowly..."
"Zidane again? No one's idol is me?"
"Yes, yes, if I get married early, I can give birth to a Li."
There was an atmosphere of joy in the cafeteria.
The key is that Buffon can also sign language and can accurately convey what Li Kang wants to express.
"Did you see that?"
"Li's idol is me!"
Li Kang smiled and shook his head.
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
...
September 10th.
Li Kang and his assistant went to Loughborough to go through the admission procedures.
Chelsea made a massive rotation and arrived at Swansea's Liberty Stadium.
The Jack Legion fans greeted Hazard with boos.
The story starts from the League Cup game in January 2013:
Hazard "violently kicked" 17-year-old Swansea ball boy Morgan, shocking Europe.
After the game, he apologized specifically and gained forgiveness from the caddy and the opponent's parents.
But every time the two teams clash, Swansea fans will bring this incident up to tease the Blues star.
...
There is no suspense in the game.
Swansea and Chelsea are in full swing.
Not a tough guy.
It's romantic.
In the Premier League, including the British Championship, no matter who the opponent is, the Jack Legion will insist on beautiful football that is pleasing to the eye.
In 2001, Swansea was on the verge of bankruptcy. Fans raised 200,000 pounds to buy 21% of the club's shares, so Swansea is a fan's club.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.
Last summer, two American businessmen acquired 60% of Swansea's shares and carried out drastic reforms, injecting American football management concepts into the club.
Fans' trust shares were also nibbled away.
We have money, but the investment in signings...is not as good as the difficult times.
Let’s give an example:
Swansea used to be frugal every day, eat meat and vegetables, work hard, and slowly pay off some small debts, and life was getting better and better. But one day, two Americans appeared and they helped you pay off the small debts.
Debt, and then make you eat shit every day, and you have to hand over all the money you earn from work.
Due to long-term malnutrition and inability to complete your performance, the "Premier League" wants to expel you and demote you to the "English Championship".
At the beginning of the 2017/18 season, the overall strength of Swansea, which was hollowed out, was already in the middle of the British Championship. In the Premier League with so many strong players, the hope of relegation was so slim.
...
Liberty Stadium.
With the goals of Hazard, Diego Costa and others, Jack's army was defeated.
The Chelsea coaching staff also replaced substitute players one after another around 60 minutes.
finally.
The referee blows the whistle to end the game.
Chelsea completed their first four consecutive wins in the Premier League!
Studio.
-[Buffon's strength is just like this. He happened to stand in the path of his opponent's shot, froze on the spot and hugged the ball. His number of saves was not as good as Caballero's (a dog's head saves his life)]
-[Match-fixing, why does the Swansea forward always shoot into his arms?]
-[What a perversion, Chelsea’s defense and goalkeeper have a very unified defensive thinking, it looks like a mobile fortress, and it also liberated Kante and Bakayoko.]
-【Final lineup.】
-[Don’t speak too early, Chelsea has never encountered a truly strong team, let me take a sip first, come on Chelsea!]
-[Let’s see if we can defend the “300 million” attacking line led by Barcelona, Kudos, Suarez, and Dembele in the Champions League. They have already scored 10 goals this season! 】
Post-game press conference.
Media reporters are more concerned about the opening match of the Champions League group stage in a few days: Barcelona VS Chelsea.
"Barcelona has invested nearly 400 million in signings in the past two seasons. Is Chelsea confident that it will escape from Camp Nou?"
Tuchel replied without thinking:
"A group of... Valverde has completed the transformation of Barcelona. They have signed a group of bright and talented stars. It will be a difficult game for Chelsea."
"Stamford Bridge tragedy? Maybe nothing like it will happen again."
"Chelsea is confident that it can overcome all difficulties through victory."
Dino is equally confident: As long as Chelsea doesn't get bombed like Dortmund, they won't be afraid of any opponent at all.
...
Barcelona first team training base.
meeting room.
The members of the coaching bench looked at the estimated Chelsea lineup on the big screen, and couldn't help but feel a little... despair deep in their hearts.
Valverde looked calm.
When coaching teams in the middle and lower reaches of La Liga, I have already been honed by Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and other clubs to have a tough and strong heart.
"Iniesta, Rakitic and Messi have no problems with their physical condition."
"Camp Nou has always only made opponents fearful."
