What happens to the city when Mourinho appears in London again?

That is, almost all the media are paying attention. Is the Portuguese madman going to return to the Premier League?

If he really returns to the Premier League, who will become the unlucky guy who will be replaced by him?

The unlucky Grant became the biggest suspect, although many media think that Abramovich invited Mourinho back to the next stage is definitely ridiculous and a joke of the century, because the Portuguese just finished class at the beginning of the season.

Ye Qiu really doesn't know why that crazy man chose to return to London on the eve of the Champions League semi-finals. Perhaps because he felt that Portugal in the south is too hot now, and he wanted to come to London in the north to cool off the heat, or felt the football atmosphere in London, and wanted to take a look. In short, he didn't know

This is what Ye Qiu answered to the group of reporters who blocked the first team training area of ​​Theobord training base early in the morning. He was surprised. Mourinho was not his person. When that guy returned to London, the reporter asked him if he was? Isn’t the one who should ask the most? Or, go and ask Abramovich?

The security guards of Theobord training base were hired by a regular security company. Since the team defeated AC Milan, Ye Qiu issued an order to close the Theobord training base, especially in the first-team training area, where idle people are not allowed to enter. Even if reporters and media come to attend the press conference, they can only go to the news building.

This also has something to do with the fierce hype outside. After all, Tottenham Hotspur has become the biggest dark horse in this UEFA Champions League. Coupled with Ye Qiu's relationship, this team has always been the most eye-catching team.

High exposure and high attention are a good thing for professional clubs. At least, it provides great convenience for commercial development, because everyone wants to sponsor teams that have attracted worldwide attention in every move. Therefore, such exposure and attention are also related to Tottenham Hotspur's fuel behind the scenes.

Of course, the team itself does have resources to attract attention. Otherwise, a lot of teams would want to get media attention and exposure, but even if they give money, the media would not be willing to pay attention to them because they have no place to pay attention to.

The blacksmith must be strong himself. If you don’t have a foundation, no matter how much you pay attention or expose it, it will be useless.

But as the team's head coach, Ye Qiu also deeply felt some of the impact the media has brought to the team. At least a very typical example appears in some players. After the media's exposure and publicity and hype, they will begin to feel a little restless and feel that they should be treated at a higher level, such as the main position.

Ye Qiu always adopts an internal solution strategy for the internal conflicts of the team, that is, the matters in the locker room are resolved in the locker room. No one can talk too much to the outside world because he wants to build a united team, at least he cannot give the outside world some opportunities to exaggerate the report.

At some critical moments, Ye Qiu even takes some more dictatorial measures, such as closed training, which will definitely arouse dissatisfaction from the media, but over time, they will get used to it, especially newspapers and reporters who have good relationships with Tottenham Hotspur. Even in closed training, they can still get some information from the club.

This is also determined by the current European professional football environment. Whether it is a team or a star, it is inseparable from the media.

Because there is no pressure in this regard, at least with Robert Milson, Ye Qiu doesn't need to worry about the news. So he ignored the complaints of the reporters and answered a few questions casually, blocked them outside the first-team training area and prohibited anyone from entering the first-team training area.

Back in the training area, Ye Qiu noticed that there were already many players on the training ground, one of whom had obviously been training for a while, which could be seen from the training jersey on him and his sweat.

"Save some effort, David, don't be hurt again." Ye Qiu walked over and said to Beckham with a smile.

The injury in December was almost the same as the end of February, but just after returning to the training ground, Beckham's right ankle began to hurt again. After testing, his old ankle injury relapsed, and then he underwent a series of physical treatments. It was not until these two days that he had obtained a license for the game again.

"I feel very good now, nothing happened." Beckham jumped a few times in front of Ye Qiu, and he tried his best to show that he is in good health.

The facilities at Theobord Training Base are very complete, especially in terms of medical care. Whether it is an anti-gravity treadmill or a swimming pool, they are important means for Beckham to perform physical therapy, and the effect is also quite good.

If it were other teams, Beckham would have been able to make a comeback long ago, but Ye Qiu forced him to take nearly two more weeks and insisted that he recover his injury before making a comeback.

"What you have to do now is to adjust your condition, right?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

It was originally a joke, but after hearing this, Beckham nodded seriously, "I feel that my condition is very good now. I want to play the game as soon as possible. More games, the more the better." After saying this, he started a short-distance sprint and back to the running training

Ye Qiu heard his words and saw him like this again. He smiled and murmured to himself: "It turns out to be the same as Ferguson."

Beckham's professional ethics need not be doubted. He is always the most diligent in the training field. Especially after joining Tottenham Hotspur, he insists on coming to the training base early every day, sometimes even earlier than the coaching staff, and usually he leaves the latest. If he was not prevented from practicing free kicks during the recovery period, he would definitely be later.

Although Beckham is not the captain of the team now, his prestige in the team is quite high. This is not because the team is in the Premier League, nor because he is a superstar, but because he has accumulated and established his prestige bit by bit on the training ground, so many young players are infected by him.

Just imagine, a superstar of such a big brand is so diligent, what reasons do other players have to be lazy

Of course, Ye Qiu could also feel the urgency and crisis in Beckham's heart, because his position within the team is no longer as stable as before he was injured, and he even has to use his performance to regain the main position from Modric.

Beckham has the advantage of Beckham, and Modric also has the advantage of Modric. What's more, the media recently disclosed that Tottenham Hotspur wanted to introduce a midfielder in the summer, which undoubtedly further strengthened the team's midfield competition. Not only Beckham has pressure, but all other players are also pressured.

As Beckham's friend, Ye Qiu felt that maybe he was a bit sorry for his friend to do this. After all, Beckham worked so hard and diligent, but his efforts could not be rewarded accordingly. But as the team's head coach, he knew very well that this was the cruelty of professional football.

It's like he has also put in a lot of effort and energy into some of his team's players, but when they are seduced and poached by those wealthy families, they are also moved, and he has no way of doing so.

The only thing that Beckham is doing now.

Whether it is a football club or a person, the most important thing is to strive for self-improvement rather than complaining about the world.

For Tottenham Hotspur now, self-improvement means fighting for more championships as much as possible, especially heavyweight champions like the Premier League and the Champions League.

After reaching the semi-finals, his opponent was Chelsea. In Ye Qiu's opinion, Chelsea is much easier to play than Liverpool because he doesn't think Grant can complete any transformation against Chelsea. The Israeli has a kind of conservativeness in his bones that does not seek merit but is unforgettable. After losing several games to Tottenham Hotspur, he has completely lost his confidence.

Facing such an opponent is obviously much more interesting than facing Liverpool, isn’t it?

As long as you cross Chelsea, you will wave to Tottenham Hotspur in front of you. The Champions League final will be

Even if you go further, you will be the king of Europe

Ye Qiu has never been proud of offensive football, because in his opinion, this is just a way to win, no different from defensive counterattack. The purpose of the two is the same, and nothing is worthy of pride.

But at the same time, he also said that he doesn't like that kind of conservative football, he likes to be proactive.

So an Italian media once accused him of this, believing that he was attacking Italian football style intentionally or unintentionally, but Ye Qiu finally clarified that he said that he had absolutely no idea of ​​looking down on Italian football style. On the contrary, there were quite a lot of traces of Italy in his football philosophy, especially from Saki.

"I personally think that whether it is active offense or defensive counterattack, it is an art of football. I never think there is any problem with defensive counterattack, because the ultimate goal of defensive counterattack is counterattack, not defense. So even if it is a defensive counterattack, his attitude can be very positive and positive. Is there any problem?"

"I said I don't like conservative football. What is conservative? It depends on your attitude."

"In my opinion, as long as you have a positive attitude, even if you fight against defensively or even hit the defensively, I won't feel that there is any problem. On the contrary, I will often watch some videos in this area, especially their defense organization, which is the essence of a tactic."

If Avran Grant had heard Ye Qiu's words, he would definitely feel that the tactics he arranged today were not appreciated by Ye Qiu at all, because he had only one attitude, that is, to defend a draw from the White Hart Lane Stadium.

Perhaps he was not smart enough, because his goal was completely exposed from his platoon and tactics after the game, which was to block Tottenham's offense with a solid defense.

Chelsea played away, and the tactics were a bit like the 44 goalkeepers were Cudicini, the defense was Ashley Cole, Carvalho, Terry and Ferreira, midfielders Barack, Marklele, Mikel, and Lampard, Rooney and Drogba formed the front line.

It's a bit like the 44 tactic, but Rooney's position is relatively close to the wing and often retreats, while Lampard's position is relatively backward. It is obviously a conscious effort to strengthen the defensive strength of the midfield and support the two wings to suppress Tottenham's attack.

Ye Qiu still adopted a 433 tactic in this game. The goalkeeper was Cech, the defense was Vargas, Hangland, Thiago Silva and Alves, the midfield was Modric, Mascherano and Fabregas, and the three players in the frontcourt were Ribery, Van Persie and Messi.

The game started out in fact very dull, and Chelsea almost made its midfield and backcourt into an iron wall, unbreakable.

Tottenham Hotspur got a lot of time to control the ball, and tried to pass the ball again and again, but it was invalid, and it was back, reorganized, and tried to pass it forward again, and then failed. This cycle continued, again and again, and the pace was never fast, because Chelsea did not seem to have the desire to invest in the offense.

Tottenham Hotspur fans in the stands of the White Hart Lane Stadium were quite dissatisfied with the visiting team's tactical style and tried every means to stimulate and humiliate the opponent with words, because such a dead guard is not worthy of Chelsea's identity and so many stars.

But Avran Grant was unmoved and sat in the visiting team's coaching seat, unmoving as if he was aware that for him now, he could only ask for results, but not the process. The Champions League was his only chance, so even if he was defending, he would have to reach the finals.

Mourinho sat in the stands at White Hart Lane Stadium and watched the game with his own eyes. During the game, Tottenham Hotspur's active horizontal transfer and pulling pass penetration gave him a feeling that the team was obviously much more mature than before.

"This team has improved so quickly," Mourinho said to his agent Jorge Mendes.

"Whether it's Ribery, Messi, Fabregas, Van Persie, or Vargas, Thiago Silva, Mascherano and others, the progress is very fast."

If it was at the beginning of the season, perhaps he could still feel the youthfulness and immatureness of Tottenham Hotspur, that is, in terms of grasping the rhythm and process of the game. But now, Tottenham Hotspur's patience and calmness give him a feeling of confidence.

"If it comes to offense, ball control and technology, Tottenham Hotspur beat Chelsea at all, and there is even a great chance of winning the Champions League." Mendes also felt this, and he was amazed, "If you win the Champions League again, it will be Ye Qiu's third Champions League. This guy is indeed not simple."

After hearing this, Mourinho glanced at Ye Qiu in the coaching area of ​​the home team and smiled coldly, "It's not that simple, all finals are completely different from other games. Don't forget the painful lessons we learned in Porto back then."

Porto also reached the finals with a difficult time, but it completely collapsed in the Champions League final and was beaten by Chelsea led by Ye Qiu. That battle also became a shame for Mourinho.

To a certain extent, Ye Qiu's tactics and team strength definitely do not have that big advantage, but the key to the problem lies in the players' psychology. No head coach can accurately grasp this, and can only rely on the players to adjust it themselves.

Although Tottenham played AC Milan before, now it seems to be improving rapidly and it seems to be very mature. But it is not mature. It has to wait until they really reach the final before they can be accurate. Whether they meet Barcelona or Manchester United next, they are all teams with rich experience. Maybe Tottenham will be completely revealed by then.

Why do people always say that wealthy families and nobles have foundations? Usually this foundation cannot be seen in normal times. Only when you get critical moments and at the critical moments, can you see the difference between them?

The life and death of football matches is undoubtedly in the finals, World Cup finals and Champions League finals. That is the real standard and leverage for measuring a team's strength. Other games are not convincing, and no matter how good they perform, it will be useless.

"Then do you think Grant has hope?" Mendes looked at Mourinho with a smile. He didn't notice what Mourinho said. Because he was not the head coach, he felt that Mourinho was more belittling Ye Qiu, and he had long been accustomed to this.

"That fool lost the game from the beginning." Mourinho shook his head and sneered. He always felt that dismissing himself was not a big problem. The real big problem was that he actually hired an Avran Grant. What else did this guy have except for a mouth?

"As Ferguson said, playing Tottenham Hotspurs must suppress their momentum. This is a team that is very good at raising momentum or rhythm. As long as you make them increase their momentum and play their own rhythm, you will be far from death."

After a pause, Mourinho sneered: "The stupid Israeli thought he was very smart and gathered heavy troops to defend in the midfield, but he probably didn't think at all about what the meaning of doing this is? Passive and passive retreat will only encourage Tottenham Hotspur's momentum and confidence."

Only those who have been head coaches can understand the importance of momentum and rhythm, because when momentum and rhythm are on your side, no matter how you play, you can easily lose your opponent. On the other hand, when momentum and rhythm are far away from you, no matter how hard you try, the distance between you and goals seems to be extremely far away.

Of course, the momentum and rhythm are not constant. From a game to a minute or two, or even a defense, an assist, or a pass, it may change the momentum and rhythm of your team and then change the game.
