Chapter 206 Win the Community Shield! Premier League debt reduction action! Yang Cheng: Bayern's top management are all good people! [Subscribe]
Since Yang Cheng took over the full management of Bayswater Chinese in 2003, he has implemented his personal will in every aspect of the club.
Over the past few years, the tremendous success achieved by Bayswater Chinese has also brought Yang Cheng's personal prestige to a height that even he himself might not dare to imagine.
Everyone outside said that Yang Cheng had the ability to turn stones into gold.
Any player that Yang Cheng takes a fancy to can basically become a talent and perform well.
Therefore, Bayswater Chinese players can be sold for a good price.
The players that Yang Cheng targets often see their value skyrocket.
For a long time, Yang Cheng was troubled by the fact that too many teams and agents outside were using him to hype him up.
Today, the East team heard that Yang Cheng had set his sights on their central defender. Tomorrow, the West team heard that Yang Cheng had set his sights on their forward. The day after tomorrow, the South team heard that Yang Cheng admired their midfielder. The day after tomorrow…
Up to now, Yang Cheng has basically not appeared in public.
Because it’s too troublesome!
Although he does not show up and the club, media and agent outside cannot see anything, the team is very concerned about Yang Cheng's every move.
Let’s take the simplest, most inconspicuous detail.
Everyone knows that Bayswater Chinese is the first sports club in the world of football to implement paperless office and modern management. All data from the scout department is gathered in a player database.
There are a lot of rumors about this player database, some of which are described as magical or some of which are belittled as worthless.
The Bayswater Chinese scouting department knows that it is indeed very advanced, but not that magical.
The biggest feature of the entire database is player retrieval.
Based on different options and weights, matching players can be searched from the database.
This has made great contributions to the club in the past few years.
For example, Begovic's transfer.
There are also several centers who were once rumored to be involved after Carroll was sold during the winter break this year.
These are the results obtained after searching and matching in the database and then surveyed by various earth prospectors.
But in this database, there is a list that is considered to be top secret.
There are not many users who can access the database with the highest permissions, and Yang Cheng is one of them.
He has his own account ID.
On weekdays, he would also browse around the player database, and when he saw players he was familiar with, he would often choose to follow them.
This was a subconscious behavior of his.
Because he was afraid that if he traveled through time for too long, he would gradually forget about the players.
After all, it has been so many years and he has been so busy that sometimes he really can't remember.
Therefore, every time he sees a familiar and interesting player, he will put it in his watch list so that he can look it up in the future when needed.
Over time, he himself didn't think there was anything wrong.
But this is simply unimaginable for other Chinese people in Bayswater.
It was scouting director Gary Worthington who first noticed Yang Cheng's attention list by accident.
After a long time, he found that the players on this list were all good players.
It's just like Columbus discovering the New World.
Later, football director Dan Ashworth and chief talent officer Mike Rigg were also informed.
Later on, even Adam Crozier knew of the existence of such a list.
Finally, there is Xia Qing.
If Xia Qing knew, then Yang Cheng would know too.
At that time, Yang Cheng himself was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
He didn't expect that a small action of his that he took unintentionally would be regarded as a holy book by these big guys.
What does this look like?
It’s like browsing Weibo in the previous life, and the IDs you randomly followed had their deep meanings interpreted by bigwigs from all sides.
This made him feel both proud and speechless.
Adam Crozier realized the importance of the list, and since only the most core senior executives knew about it, he did not pursue the matter, but only requested that it not be discussed or disclosed.
Besides, many of the players on the list have gradually made their mark and are now stars in European football.
For example, Aguero of Atletico Madrid, Suarez of Liverpool, David Silva of Valencia, etc.
There are also a few very special ones, such as Real Madrid's new German player Mesut, who was blocked by Yang Cheng.
Therefore, Yang Cheng’s attention list is important, and it is indeed very important.
If this news really gets out, it will definitely cause uproar in European football.
The effect is definitely not inferior to Florentino's recording scandal.
It doesn’t seem to be that important.
Therefore, several core senior executives of the Chinese in Bayswater collectively kept this secret.
But things took an interesting turn this summer.
Isn't this the acquisition of Nice?
The two clubs share the scouting system and naturally the scouting database.
It turned out that Nice's football director Emmanuel Perrin was a scout for the Chinese at Bayswater and was also the head of the French region, and he occasionally heard some clues.
This time, after he got access to the scout database, he wanted to take a look.
It turned out that he had no authority at all.
While the Chinese were training in Bayswater, Nice was also training.
The newly appointed head coach Ronald Koeman was full of energy and vowed to bring about a second spring in his career in Nice, devoting his heart and soul, working hard, exhausting all his energy and devoting his life to the cause (this is just for emphasis, not to meet the word count, please don't scold me).
But in his previous life, he coached European giants such as Ajax, Feyenoord, Valencia and Benfica.
Your standards are too high.
There weren't many players left in Nice that he was interested in.
So after some operations and a cleanup, they earned several million euros in transfer fees.
But signings are also imminent.
As the director of football, Emmanuel Perrin took the opportunity of the Chinese from Bayswater going to the United States to participate in the International Champions Cup to fly to London and find Dan Ashworth and Mike Rigg.
When the three of them put their minds together, they immediately thought of Yang Cheng's follow list.
Given Nice's current status in European football, they can forget about playing for players at the level of the four major leagues.
Don't worry about those new talents who are emerging and have become famous.
They even didn't dare to pay much attention to the young players that Yang Cheng had recently paid attention to.
For example, Martial from Lyon's youth training camp.
This is not something Nice can covet right now.
But that doesn't stop Emmanuel Perrin from secretly keeping it in mind.
In the end, they selected four players from the list of players Yang Cheng was interested in based on the requirements put forward by Ronald Koeman and the actual situation.
Jorginho, an 18-year-old young player with dual Italian and Brazilian citizenship, plays for Verona in the Italian third-tier league.
Marcelo Brozovic, a 17-year-old player from Croatia's Zagreb Croatian club.
In the youth training camp of Metz, a French Ligue 19 relegation team, there is Kalidou Coulibaly, a -year-old central defender with dual Senegalese and French nationality.
And the last one is also the most magical.
They were not found in Yang Cheng's follow list, but in Yang Cheng's blacklist.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is a 21-year-old young player who plays for AC Milan.
To be honest, Aubameyang is not an unknown newcomer.
He holds dual citizenship of France and Gabon, and was selected for the French U2009 youth team in February 2.
At that time, he was loaned by AC Milan to Dijon in the French Ligue 2, and his progress was very fast.
But only this time.
He played for Dijon for one season, scoring 34 goals and providing 8 assists in 2 league games.
In the cup competition, he played 4 times and scored 2 goals.
The overall performance is pretty good.
Because of this, he was loaned to Lille in French Ligue 09 by AC Milan in the 10/ season, but his performance was very poor.
He plays as a winger for the team, capable of playing on both the left and right flanks, but in 14 appearances, he only played 494 minutes and scored 2 goals.
He made 7 appearances in the Europa League, played 352 minutes, and had no goals or assists.
Such performance will naturally not be valued by Lille.
So, in the summer of 10, after the loan ended, Aubameyang returned to AC Milan's youth training camp.
As AC Milan does not get any opportunities, Aubameyang has to continue to be loaned out.
But Emanuelle, Dan Ashworth, and Mike Rigg all felt very strange.
Why did Yang Cheng block Aubameyang?
But head coach Ronald Koeman is very interested in Aubameyang.
Firstly, Mahrez, Salah and Sane are still very young, only 17 or 18 years old.
Aubameyang is 21 years old.
Moreover, this player can play on both wingers and as a striker, making him a rare all-rounder in the frontcourt.
Therefore, after communicating with Dan Ashworth and Mike Rigg, and with trust in Yang Cheng's focus list, the group agreed to Nice's recruitment plan.
It must be said that Emmanuel Perrin's abilities are really good.
He signed these four players cleanly while the Bayswater Chinese were competing in the International Champions Cup in the United States.
Among them, Aubameyang spent 150 million euros, which was divided into 2 years.
The other players are all very cheap.
Brozovic spent 30 euros, Koulibaly spent 10 euros, and Jorginho also spent 10 euros.
The total cost of all four players is only 200 million euros.
There is no need to even report it to Yang Cheng; the final decision can be made by Dan Ashworth and Mike Rigg.
So, when Yang Cheng led the team back to London and saw the Nice first-team roster, his first reaction was surprise.
He even suspected that Emmanuel Perrin was possessed by the soul of a great time traveler!
After asking Dan Ashworth and Mike Rigg, Yang Cheng finally understood what was going on.
……
"Isn't this a bit exaggerated?"
Yang Chengshi really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He definitely had no intention of creating a cult of personality within the club.
On the contrary, he has been trying his best to avoid and eliminate this phenomenon.
But I have to admit that this feeling is really good.
"You don't know, based on Emmanuel's feedback, Ronald is now very happy with Nice's squad," Dan Ashworth said with a smile.
Of course Yang Cheng understood.
The head coach will know whether the players have the ability as soon as they go out for training.
Why?
Because the head coach's training intensity is arranged according to the strength of the players.
The purpose is to ensure that the players give their best during training time.
We need to maintain a balance between not overdoing it and allowing the players to try their best or even improve slightly.
Therefore, training arrangements are also a science.
Otherwise, would Yang Cheng spend so much money every year on the sports science department to let them research training methods?
Therefore, the head coach is the one who knows best about the players' strengths.
How could Ronald Koeman not be satisfied once he takes one look at the training?
Look at Nice's current lineup.
If you need a center forward, we have a center forward; if you need speed, we have speed; if you need midfield organization, we have midfield organization; and we also have hitters like Matuidi and Kante.
With the group's investment of resources and the club's management's full support, if Ronald Koeman still cannot lead this team and the French Ligue 1 is still fighting for relegation next season, Yang Cheng will have to consider changing the coach.
Of course, the main reason why Yang Cheng did this was because Nice was the first one to expand its territory, and he hoped to have a good start so that things would be much easier in the future.
Thinking of this, after sending Dan Ashworth and Mike Rigg away, Yang Cheng called Ronald Koeman again to inquire about Nice's current situation.
Ronald Koeman was very confident on the phone, but there are challenges.
It’s mainly because of Nice’s running-in problems.
The team is in its infancy and has just undergone a reorganization. The players do not yet have good coordination, so running-in will be a big problem.
But Ronald Koeman expressed confidence that he firmly believed Nice could achieve good results in the new season.
Yang Cheng naturally encouraged and affirmed him.
When mentioning several new players, Yang Cheng briefly and concisely explained the reason why he made this call.
The ones he wanted to mention were Jorginho and Brozovic.
These two players are more suitable for midfield organization, preferably playing as defenders.
Ronald Koeman said that he had already seen it.
As a famous European coach, he does have this kind of vision.
After hearing this, Yang Cheng naturally encouraged him again.
The current French Ligue 1 is just a fight between weak teams.
Lyon has lost its hegemony and is in trouble, especially in the past few years, Lyon has suffered serious talent loss.
Marseille is even more out of pocket and there have been rumors that it will be sold.
Lille has lost Hazard, the most competitive player in Yang Cheng's previous life.
If Yang Cheng remembers correctly, Monaco was relegated this season.
So, Ligue 1 is a big melee now.
To put it nicely, it's called a battle among many heroes.
To put it bluntly, it's just a fight between two weaklings.
This situation will not change until the Qatari consortium enters Ligue 1 next year.
Why is Yang Cheng so sure that the Qatari consortium will enter Ligue 1?
Because this goes beyond football.
This is a political deal!
If Qatar wants to host the World Cup, it must get the support of UEFA President Michel Platini.
Go to the Premier League?
This is basically impossible.
Because the UK is also bidding to host the World Cup, it is considered a competitor of Qatar.
As long as the French seduce, why should Britain stay?
Spain cannot enter the Bundesliga because it is not a big country and has no influence.
Therefore, the Qatari consortium will definitely go to Ligue 1!
By that time, Ligue 1 will also usher in a new era of foreign investment!
……
After returning to the UK from the United States, the Bayswater Chinese began the final sprint of the new season.
As a precursor to the Premier League, the Community Shield has undoubtedly become a key battle to test the quality of the team.
League champions versus FA Cup champions!
As both a warm-up match and a formal match, events like the Community Shield are perfect for evaluating teams.
So, on the afternoon of August 8th at London's Wembley Stadium, the Bayswater Chinese welcomed Hiddink's Chelsea.
The Blues did not make any major signings this summer.
This is actually quite surprising.
Apart from signing a midfielder Ramires from Benfica, Chelsea only signed Benayoun from Liverpool and a defender named Kalas from the Czech Republic.
Not only did they fail to bring in strong reinforcements, but the former main central defender Carvalho was also sold to Real Madrid coached by Mourinho.
In addition, there are free transfers of players such as Deco, Joe Cole, Ballack and Belletti.
This seems very strange.
You know, the Blues have missed the Champions League for two consecutive seasons.
Does Chelsea want to give up?
Chelsea head coach Hiddink explained the team's summer transfer operations at the pre-match press conference of the Community Shield.
He believes that the departure of players such as Carvalho, Ballack, Joe Cole, Deco and Belletti has saved the team's salary expenses and freed up places in the first team, and is part of the team's reorganization.
From now on, Chelsea will give young players more playing opportunities.
Players like Carroll, Kalou, Bruma, Kakuta and others will get more opportunities.
In addition, Hiddink also revealed that Chelsea is considering signing Benfica's Brazilian center back David Luiz.
"We all hope to be able to negotiate this transfer before the transfer market closes!"
The outside media's interpretation of this is very accurate.
As the economic crisis hit, Abramovich's funds were also affected.
Carroll, who was signed with a lot of money, did not perform well. Coupled with the joining of Sneijder and Eto'o, as well as a group of veterans in the team, Chelsea has suffered huge losses for many consecutive years.
These losses were all mitigated by Abramovich's capital injection.
In this case, clearing out a group of veterans in the team and promoting young players is undoubtedly a way to ease financial pressure.
Why send Joe Cole away and let the Englishman move to Liverpool?
The Sun said that Chelsea could not meet the salary Joe Cole asked for, but Liverpool was willing to give it.
The reality is that even though Chelsea has let go of a number of veteran players, its salary expenditure is still among the highest in the Premier League.
According to an annual report issued by Deloitte, the Premier League remains the richest league in the world in the 09/10 season.
But the growth in Premier League salary spending has exceeded the growth in revenue.
In the 09/10 season, the salary expenditure of Premier League clubs increased by 6400 million pounds, and the total expenditure exceeded 14 billion pounds. The specific figures cannot be verified, but the proportion of salary expenditure to total revenue reached an unprecedented 68%.
This actually confirms what Yang Cheng said before.
With the depreciation of the pound and the increase in personal income tax, under the double pressure, the salary burden of major clubs will continue to increase.
In addition to the increased proportion of salaries, Premier League clubs also suffered losses of 4.45 million pounds.
This is also a record-breaking data!
Of course, with the current income of the Premier League, the loss of 4.45 million pounds needs to be taken seriously and controlled, but it is not enough to affect the survival of the Premier League.
Among the 20 Premier League teams, which club has the highest salary expenditure?
Not the spendthrift Manchester City, not Manchester United, not the extravagant Arsenal, and certainly not the Bayswater Chinese under Yang Cheng’s control.
But Chelsea!
The Blues' wage bill is £1.74 million, far ahead of the rest.
This is more than the £1.33 million spent by second-placed Manchester City.
Yang Cheng and other people in the Premier League felt very strange about this.
Where exactly does Chelsea's salary expenditure go?
That’s 1.74 million pounds!
The salaries at Real Madrid and Barcelona are high because they have many star players and high revenues.
But what about Chelsea?
How do they manage to maintain such high salaries despite such huge losses every year?
The only explanation is that salary control within Chelsea is a mess.
The current maximum salary for Chinese players at Bayswater is 12 pounds.
If this is placed in the Chelsea team, it can only be considered above average.
The middle class Chinese in Bayswater are considered low-income in Chelsea.
So, when Carroll arrived, he received a weekly salary of 9 pounds.
But don’t be happy too soon, the Chinese in Bayswater have now become the “number one culprit” in the Premier League’s debt reduction campaign.
Last season, the Premier League's net debt was £33 billion.
According to the original plan, this season should be further reduced to less than 30 billion pounds, or even to 25 billion pounds.
However, as the loan for the new Bayswater Chinese stadium came into effect, the Premier League's debt reduction efforts had little effect, and the total debt remained above 30 billion pounds.
There is no way around it, the Chinese in Bayswater alone account for hundreds of millions.
However, Deloitte also pointed out that Bayswater Chinese's debt is benign, and with good control of salary expenditure, the club's revenue has hit new highs and is even expected to catch up with Real Madrid in the future. Therefore, Deloitte believes that Bayswater Chinese is still the most competitive team in the Premier League.
When the new stadium is completed, this West London team will be transformed into the most powerful top club in the Premier League and even in Europe!
In addition, with Arsenal gradually selling properties in Highbury, Manchester City and Liverpool responding to the Premier League's debt-to-equity policy, and teams such as Blackburn being acquired by foreign capital, the Premier League's debt will be further reduced in the next few years.
Overall, the Premier League is still the best run and most competitive league in the world!
In such an economic environment and against the backdrop of the Premier League, it is easy to understand why Chelsea is once again tightening its purse strings and cutting spending.
Chelsea has missed out on the Champions League for two consecutive years and its revenue level is only about 2 million pounds.
It is almost impossible to support the salary expenditure of 1.74 million pounds with this amount of revenue.
Therefore, it is not fiction that the Blues lose tens of millions of pounds every year.
In this case, simply relying on Abramovich's investment would be a bottomless pit.
Last season was Chelsea’s last attempt, as they failed to make it into the top four of the Champions League. It is normal to further reorganize the team after a major cleanup.
However, before the Chelsea transfer market opened, there was a lot of hype about players like Ibrahimovic, Aguero, Suarez, etc., but in the end, none of them came.
It is still somewhat disappointing to the fans.
On the contrary, the Chinese team in Bayswater has been making great progress. Last season, they launched the British twin stars Gareth Bale and Walcott, as well as stars such as Lewandowski, Di Maria and Aaron Ramsey.
It can be said that today Bayswater Chinese have become the most attractive top team in London.
……
In this Community Shield at Wembley Stadium in London, Hiddink still stuck to the 433 tactics.
Goalkeeper: Cech;
Defence: Ashley Cole, Terry, Ivanovic and Ferreira;
Midfield: Mikel is in the back, Lampard and Essien are in the middle;
Forwards: Malouda, Eto'o and Anelka.
Alex was injured and missed the game, Drogba and Sneijder were both on the bench.
In comparison, the Chinese side in Bayswater is obviously more star-studded.
Goalkeeper: Courtois;
Defense: Marcelo, Thiago Silva, Pepe and Piszczek;
Midfield: Matic drops back, with Toni Kroos and Modric in the middle;
Forwards: Gareth Bale, Lewandowski and Walcott.
If nothing else, at least on the front line, the Chinese players of Bayswater are much bigger than those of Chelsea.
Modric also sits in the midfield.
Matic also proved his strength last season.
Thiago Silva and Pepe on the back line are both top central defenders ranked in the world.
This also made the Chelsea fans in the stands of Wembley Stadium feel very uncomfortable.
There was a time when they looked down upon the Chinese in Bayswater.
But what about now?
This West London neighbor is already in the limelight, completely overshadowing Chelsea.
After the schedule for this season was released, the three major European bookmakers began to offer odds for winning the championship.
After selling Neuer, the Chinese team of Bayswater still leads the Premier League.
Especially after the International Champions Cup, Yang Cheng's team became the number one favorite to win the championship.
At Wembley Stadium, as soon as referee Marina blew the whistle to start the game, the Chinese team of Bayswater took the initiative to attack.
The front trident advanced together.
The first attack started with Toni Kroos's long diagonal pass from the left side of his own half, directly sending the ball to the right behind Chelsea's defense.
Walcott moved forward at a very fast speed, chasing the ball.
Ashley Cole chased back desperately.
Although the England left-back is not as fast as Walcott, he is fast enough.
In addition, he was standing in the back position and was the first to shovel the ball out of bounds.
The sprint of the two English horses on the wing excited the 9 fans at the scene!
"This kind of pure speed competition is definitely the most exciting way to excite the fans!"
"Theo Walcott was so quick and Toni Kroos made the perfect long pass."
"I have to say that the player Bayswater Chinese brought from Bayern this summer does have his own characteristics."
Chelsea retreated to their own half from the start.
The Chinese in Bayswater pressed forward boldly.
Just 4 minutes and 30 seconds into the game, Toni Kroos made another long diagonal pass near the center line.
This time it was Walcott who made a quick diagonal sprint.
The little tiger is extremely fast.
Originally two body lengths behind Ashley Cole, the England left-back thought he could easily take the ball.
Unexpectedly, Toni Kroos' pass fell behind Terry and Ashley Cole.
The little tiger moved forward at an extremely fast speed, rushed into the penalty area before Ashley Cole, and caught up with Toni Kroos' pass.
Walcott kicked the ball and stopped it. Facing Cech who was halfway through the attack, he kicked it and tried to make a lob shot.
The result may be that he sprinted too fast, which caused him to mishandle the final shot.
The football slipped through the goal.
With two high-speed sprints, Walcott showed his amazing speed!
The little tiger also gave Toni Kroos a thumbs up from a distance.
Just over a minute later, after intercepting the ball near the center line, Toni Kroos retreated to his own half to receive the ball, turned around, looked forward, and sent a long pass over the top with his right foot.
The ball went directly into the left side of Chelsea's penalty area.
Gareth Bale sprinted at an extremely fast speed and left Ferreira behind in an instant.
Outside the penalty area, Gareth Bale was disturbed by Ivanovic. After stopping the ball, he dribbled into the penalty area, but failed to get rid of Ivanovic's entanglement and his shot went wide.
In the 8th minute, the Bayswater Chinese launched an attack from the right.
After Walcott and Piszczek completed an offensive advance on the right, the Polish defender made a cross pass when he got the ball on the outside.
Near the top of the penalty area, Toni Kroos came up from the back row, faced the cross pass, stood on his left foot, and then made a direct push with his right foot.
If it was Toni Kroos in his prime, he would probably have made this iconic putt.
But the German midfield is still very immature and the shot went wide.
In the first 10 minutes, the Chinese players from Bayswater simply gave Chelsea a beating.
Hiddink's team also organized a very tight defensive formation in their own half, not giving the opponent any chance to break through easily.
In this game, Drogba and Sneijder did not play, which made Hiddink more conservative.
But Chelsea also had the first shot of the game in the 11th minute.
After Anelka's long shot was saved by Courtois, Eto'o quickly followed up, trying to take advantage of the opportunity.
However, due to the restriction of Thiago Silva, the Cheetah did not have the chance to shoot again.
Later, Malouda on the left also created a foul in the frontcourt.
But the header from the free kick failed to threaten the goal.
……
Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines, watching the game silently.
The joining of Toni Kroos has brought huge changes to the midfield of Bayswater Chinese.
Almost all the attacks in the previous period were planned by Toni Kroos.
He was like a dealer, constantly planning and launching attacks.
His most powerful weapon is his long pass.
There are two side roads to respond.
But it's no longer a secret.
As early as during the International Champions Cup, Bayswater Chinese's new midfield was already well known.
What Yang Cheng is looking forward to is how Modric will adjust himself?
Before the game, Yang Cheng had an in-depth communication with him. He hoped that Modric would move forward and participate in the attack as much as possible when he had the opportunity.
In this game, in the first ten minutes or so, the situation on the field was basically that Matic was at the back, and Toni Kroos was relatively to the left and back.
Modric is still finding his "place".
But in the 18th minute, it was Toni Kroos who instigated the attack.
Marcelo made a straight pass from the left.
Gareth Bale quickly moved forward, used his speed to overtake, and after stopping the ball, he got rid of Ferreira.
But the attack position was not very good this time. Ferreira stuck to the inside, preventing Gareth Bale from entering the penalty area.
So the Welshman chose to cross from the left.
The cross fell into the middle, and Terry overpowered Lewandowski and headed the ball out of the penalty area.
But the ball didn't fly very far and landed near the top of the arc.
Because the Chinese from Bayswater pressed too far forward on the left wing, Chelsea's entire defense line retreated to the vicinity of the small penalty area.
In a hurry, all the midfielders retreated into the penalty area to mark Lewandowski and Walcott at the back post.
There was no one in front of the penalty area.
Modric judged the landing point of the ball and stopped it with his chest.
Essien was the first to rush out and kill the Croatian.
Chelsea's defense also pressed forward collectively.
The Blues wanted to push the Bayswater Chinese attack out of the penalty area.
This forced Lewandowski to retreat as well.
Modric first leaned slightly to the left and looked towards this side, giving people the impression that he wanted to find the left side to cooperate.
But just when Essien was confused by him, the Croatian flicked the ball with the outside of his right foot and suddenly changed direction to the right side of the top of the arc.
As soon as he adjusted himself, Modric suddenly made a lob pass.
The ball went over the defender's head and fell to the right side outside the small penalty area.
Lewandowski, who had just retreated with the defense line, suddenly stopped, quickly moved forward, and rushed to the right side of the small penalty area before everyone else.
Goalkeeper Cech decisively left the goal to attack.
Lewandowski waited until the ball hit the ground and bounced back, then chased after it and shot.
But this shot was blocked by Cech and went straight out of the baseline.
It was only at this moment that Wembley Stadium erupted into thunderous cheers.
"The attack of the Chinese in Bayswater is so threatening!"
"From the beginning of the game till now, they have been suppressing Chelsea!"
"That was the first time Modric created a threat, a very thoughtful pass behind the back."
"It can be seen that after Toni Kroos joined, Modric's position was obviously moved forward."
"Before, Modric was also able to play the No. 10 position, but in the past few years, he has been more of an organizing midfielder for the team. As other teams have adopted more and more targeted tactics, his position has been constantly moving back."
"But now, Toni Kroos has freed up Modric, allowing the Croatian to get more involved in the build-up play and passing the ball forward."
Yang Cheng was watching from the sidelines and clapping hard.
This is actually what he hopes to see.
Modric and Toni Kroos divided the work between them.
The offensive trident in the frontcourt kept crossing and switching positions.
These have been practiced in several strong matches in the International Champions Cup.
……
Here, the Chinese in Bayswater attacked more and more fiercely.
Over there, Chelsea became more and more confident in their defense.
Although the Blues were passive on the field, their defense was very solid.
The Chinese in Bayswater continued to organize and plan attacks, but were always unable to break through Chelsea's iron wall.
In the 26th minute, Toni Kroos made another long diagonal pass to the right side outside the penalty area.
Piszczek came in from behind, stopped the ball, and then made a cross to the back of the goal.
Gareth Bale's header went just wide.
But 4 minutes later, it was the same way, but the offensive coordination was completely different.
Toni Kroos made a long diagonal pass to the right side of the frontcourt near the bottom of the center circle.
Lewandowski quickly moved forward and rushed to the right side of the penalty area. He caught up with Toni Kroos' long pass before Terry, and without stopping the ball, he crossed it directly with his right foot.
But just when everyone's attention was attracted by Lewandowski, Walcott suddenly cut into the penalty area.
Ashley Cole originally went straight back to defense, wanting to fight for the ball, but when he saw that there was no chance, he also noticed that Terry was defending Lewandowski out of the penalty area.
So he chose to run diagonally back to the penalty area and assist in defense behind Terry.
When he saw Walcott, he chased back desperately.
But this time the little tiger was very fast.
When Lewandowski's cross came to the right side of the small penalty area, Ashley Cole was left behind by him, and Cech fell to the ground trying to block the shooting angle.
But the little tiger was very smart and pushed a half-high ball.
The ball passed over Cech and went straight into Chelsea's goal.
1 is better than 0!
Yang Cheng jumped up when he saw this from the sidelines.
The entire Wembley Stadium was filled with cheers and applause from Bayswater’s Chinese fans!
This is the tactical effect that Yang Cheng wants to achieve!
The front players use this back and forth crossing movement, and the midfielders use this long pass to continuously stretch the opponent's defense.
Just like just now, Chelsea's defensive players were actually very passive.
If Terry hadn't followed Lewandowski, Ashley Cole would never have been able to get the ball.
Center forward Lewandowski's body also crushes Ashley Cole.
So, Terry had to follow.
Running from the left center back to the right side outside the penalty area, Terry's speed was unable to keep up with Lewandowski's head-on attack.
The Polish center had plenty of time and space to adjust.
In this way, he can pass the ball directly the moment he receives it.
Not to mention Walcott's diagonal run into the penalty area from the right.
This kind of movement and sprinting are Walcott's strengths.
The key was the last shot. Facing the attacking Cech, Walcott was very calm.
During the entire scoring process, right center back Ivanovic didn't even have time to make up for the position.
He retreated to the left side of the penalty spot when Walcott scored.
Goals like this have actually happened before.
This kind of attack is impossible to defend against!
……
The first half ended with a score of 1-0.
After the second half, the Chinese in Bayswater did not continue to maintain high pressure, but hoped that Chelsea would take the initiative.
The Blues were one goal behind, so naturally they hoped to equalize the score as soon as possible.
But in the 53rd minute, Toni Kroos made a long pass from the backcourt, accurately sending it behind Chelsea's defense line, allowing Gareth Bale to rush forward.
The Welshman shook off Ferreira and received a pass from Toni Kroos on the left side of the Chelsea penalty area.
When he received the ball, Ferreira could no longer catch up, but Ivanovic retreated in time and followed Gareth Bale.
The Welshman first slowed down to receive the ball.
After securing the ball, he suddenly started and dribbled the ball into the penalty area at an extremely fast speed.
The absolute speed advantage allowed Gareth Bale to instantly leave Ivanovic behind.
After breaking into the penalty area, the Welshman took a direct shot with his left foot.
This is the area he is most familiar with and most confident in.
The ball hit Chelsea's bottom right corner again.
Cech can do nothing about such a shot!
2 is better than 0!
After conceding two goals in a row, Chelsea clearly began to intensify their attack, especially the pressing in the midfield and frontcourt.
Drogba and Sneijder both came on as substitutes.
But in the 65th minute, when Chelsea's defenders began to increase their restrictions on the midfield combination of Toni Kroos and Modric, Matic took on the task of organization and planning.
Matic, who was originally a midfielder, also has very good footwork and passing vision.
When Matic kicked the ball to the right and passed it to Piszczek, the Polish defender made a direct pass behind the defense line.
Walcott quickly penetrated between Terry and Ashley Cole, went straight to the right side of the penalty area, caught up with Piszczek's through pass, and sent a low cross.
Lewandowski at the front point failed to get the ball due to interference from Ivanovic.
But Gareth Bale, who was in the back post, pushed the ball into Chelsea's goal again with his left foot.
3 is better than 0!
The consecutive goals conceded have dealt a heavy blow to Chelsea's morale.
The Chinese in Bayswater took the opportunity to launch another offensive, directly pressing Chelsea into the half.
In the 80th minute, Piszczek, Modric, Lewandowski and Walcott made consecutive short passes on the right.
Modric made another lob pass.
Lewandowski successfully made an offside move, broke into the right side of the penalty area, caught up with Modric's pass, and shot directly.
Unlike the previous shot, this time Lewandowski was in a better position and at a greater angle.
The Polish center forward seized the opportunity and shot the ball into the goal guarded by Cech.
4 is better than 0!
The entire Wembley Stadium was completely transformed into a stage for the Chinese in Bayswater to celebrate!
Then, Chelsea also launched a desperate fight.
Drogba's fierce shot from the right side of the frontcourt caused Courtois to miss the save.
After Bayswater Chinese took a big lead, they let their guard down a bit on defense.
After all, this is a Community Shield charity match.
Eto'o seized the opportunity, successfully took advantage of the opportunity and sent the ball into the goal of the Bayswater Chinese.
1 is better than 4!
At this time, it was already the 92nd minute.
In the end, Bayswater Chinese defeated Chelsea 4-1 and won the Community Shield with Gareth Bale's double, Lewandowski and Walcott's goals!
Although it is a charity match, its nature is similar to the Super Bowl.
Therefore, after the competition, a brief award ceremony was held on site.
First, the losing Chelsea team went on stage to receive souvenirs, followed by the Chinese players of Bayswater who went on stage to receive medals and the Community Shield trophy.
Yang Cheng was the last to go on stage, and he received congratulations from fans and guests along the way.
Especially when they arrived at the podium, FA Chairman David Triesman, CEO Alex Horn and others kept sending congratulations.
It can be seen from this game that the strength of Bayswater Chinese is stronger than last season!
Especially the joining of Toni Kroos has greatly enhanced the attacking power of Bayswater Chinese and enriched the team's offensive means.
"I really don't understand why Bayern Munich would sell such a strong player to you for 1000 million euros?" Premier League CEO Richard Scudmore asked very puzzledly.
Yang Cheng laughed.
"It's very simple, Richard, the Bayern executives are all good people!"
