Chapter 98:

The referee's whistle temporarily saved Endritt. The game restarted, and the system obediently hid in an inconspicuous place.

"There are still six minutes left before the end of the first half. I wonder if Chelsea can score another goal in these six minutes?"

"It depends on whether Barnsley gives a chance. The ball belongs to Barnsley. For Sly, should they give it a try and score a goal, or should they save their energy for the second half?

"Ahem, what does it mean to give it a try and score a goal? " It’s not determined by your efforts, but by whether the opponent’s goalkeeper gives him a chance. “

Will Endritt give the opponent a chance? Won't.

Barnsley also knew the answer a long time ago, so at the end of the game, they hit the whistle and missed a long shot in the frontcourt. Everyone is happy if they can score, but it's okay if they can't. They can play again after a ten-minute break. . The second half started

ten minutes later

, with the half-time exchange and Chelsea kicking off.

In the 48th minute, Anelka passed the football to Cole in the penalty area. The latter received the ball and shot directly. Unfortunately, the football missed and failed to expand the score.

In the 53rd minute, Chelsea launched another attack against Barnsley's goal. This time it was Alneca's shot from the outside. Just like Cole just now, the football flew for a while before he realized that the shot had missed.

"The wind on this court is a bit strong."

Alneka muttered under his breath and kicked the grass with his foot, thinking that he would not miss the shot next time. He is a shooter who came over in the winter window this year. He must perform well on the court, so that he can not only live up to his worth, but also allow him to win the trophy with his teammates with peace of mind.

The game continued. The Barnsley team, which was two goals behind, played more aggressively. After seeing Cole steal the ball again, he directly took off from the spot. The Barnsley defender closest to Cole hurriedly caught up with Cole. , grabbed Cole's jersey.

"Toot!" the referee warned with a yellow card.

In the 57th minute, John Terry headed the ball over. After getting the ball, Alneca adjusted the angle and shot directly. Defender Hassell blocked it in time.

In the 60th and 63rd minutes, Alneca and Cole conducted two more coordinated attacks, but they never broke through Barnsley's door.

In the 66th minute, Barnsley broke through Chelsea's defense and successfully launched an attack. Midfielder Devaney made a pass from the right. At this moment, forward Odegayi, who had broken through to 6 yards from the goal, jumped high and passed The football swung toward the upper left corner with his head.

There is a reason for Odegaei to throw away like this. Endritt was on the right at this time. He scored with a header. Should Endritt have come... Before the thought in his mind was finished, Endritt had already rushed to the left side of the goal. He jumped up high, reached out and slapped the football hard, and the football hit the lawn directly.

The moment he slapped the football with his hand, Endritt shouted Ashley: AS. At first, Endrit called Ashley, but the word had too many syllables, so in the end he simply omitted it to AS. In the days when the team trained together, it was unclear how much the Chelsea teammates’ skills had grown, but they all agreed. Once a new name is added, it is still irrefutable. You must also remember the new name firmly.

Ashley did not pass the ball to Lampard immediately after receiving the ball this time. Instead, he passed the football to his defender teammate Carvalho in the center. After receiving the ball, Carvalho moved directly towards the left wing. Luck went straight forward.

As soon as this side moved, Barnsley's players immediately moved in the direction of Ballack's running: This is too obvious, the greedy German is not satisfied after scoring one goal, and wants to score another two goals. ?

Carvalho chased Ballack hard. When Ballack got rid of Barnsley's defender for a second, Carvalho made an emergency stop and passed the ball. Barnsley player Devaney looked in all directions and rushed directly To Ballack: He has made up his mind that if he fails to stop Ballack with his own skills, he will do it directly, even if he will get a yellow card for it.

But this game is not a league game, but an FA Cup game! If they win, they advance, and even if they get a yellow card, they still earn it. If they lose, even if they get a yellow card, it won't affect their league - in short, it's not a loss at all!

Devaney rushed towards Ballack, he wanted to take the football away from Ballack's feet, he wanted - where is the ball?

The football flew directly over Devaney's head. When Chelsea launched the attack, Lampard, who had not moved immediately, now ran as fast as he could. When the football was about to fly out of the baseline, he jumped up and immediately removed the football after stopping it with his chest. Come down, lift your foot, and shoot.

"GOALLLL!!! The ball is scored! Chelsea lead 3:0, Barnsley has no chance at all! Every shot they take ends up being a goal for Chelsea!"

"Yes, this is how Chelsea's counterattack Cool! Already three goals behind, do Barnsley still dare to attack again? If they attack, will they give Chelsea another chance to score?" Clarence couldn't help laughing when he said this. "That said, I am really looking forward to Barnsley attacking again, so that Chelsea can score another goal."

"This kind of counterattack should be something Chelsea has specially practiced. In the game against West Ham United, Chelsea also scored a goal like this.

"Okay, the game continues, the ball comes to the feet of Barnsley players again, what choice will they make next? Should they continue to attack or..."

the commentator said . When he started to commentate on the game, Capello, who was sitting in front of the TV, was still thinking about the moment when Lampard scored - before Lampard caught the ball and shot, he also thought it would be Ballack who caught the ball. After all, Ballack had thrown away the Barnsley players' defense and temporarily ran out of space.

As long as Ballack volleys or shoots immediately after receiving the ball, this goal can also be scored.

But Ballack did not do this, and there was not even a trace of reluctance on his face: when the football flew directly over Ballack's head, the broadcast camera had not moved away, and Ballack hurriedly ran to defend him. The Ensley players smiled a bit.

What does this mean? It means that Ballack already knew that his teammates would play like this. This was not a spontaneous collaboration, but a premeditated counterattack.

No, maybe this can't be called a counterattack.

Capello came back to his senses, his eyes fell on the TV, and he found that Barnsley players had huddled after halftime. He stood up and walked to the study room, preparing to find the game between Chelsea and West Ham United and watch it again.

Capello watched the game from the beginning, not missing any detail, and finally pressed the timeout in the 31st minute after the game started: This was Ballack's goal, and before Ballack received the ball and shot, Lampard, Cole and others are helping to cover, rather than actively seeking open spaces and waiting for teammates to pass the ball before attacking.

Capello thought of Chelsea's three goals in today's game again, stretched out his hand and rubbed his face vigorously, and the thoughts in his mind gradually took shape.

Capello: Your idea is good, but now it’s mine (Jie Jie Jie)

By the time Capello came out of the study, the quarter-finals of the FA Cup had ended, and Chelsea had successfully advanced 4:0.

Early the next morning, Capello asked his assistant to contact Chelsea and ask them when they would allow Chelsea national team players to come to St. George's Park for training. Players from other teams have participated in at least one training camp, but Chelsea have never come so far!

After receiving the letter from his assistant, Mourinho personally called Capello, "It's not that I don't let them go, it's that our recent Chelsea games are very important, and our whole team is preparing for the Champions League... …”

"Champions League? The next Champions League game will be scheduled until April, right?" Capello expressed his dissatisfaction, "No, this weekend, your team's players must come to participate in the national team training."

"It will take less than a month. Isn’t it normal that you have so much time to prepare for the Champions League? Isn’t it like this when you were coaching Real Madrid? Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot. You don’t need to prepare. Real Madrid’s stars are all on the bench, and Beckham can’t play anymore. Did you just push him to the bench?"

Mourinho stopped here and frowned when he didn't hear Capello's voice. "I'm not like you. The players I have are really useful. " Too few."

"Indeed."

Mourinho hissed, holding the phone away. "What did you say?"

"I said you Chelsea have very few players, but you have a good record recently. The tactics are very effective."

Capello saw this, and Mourinho immediately hung up the phone.

When the national team coach calls players for training, the players can indeed refuse, but if the coach calls a few times, the players will definitely go. If Capello really wanted Chelsea players to go to the training camp, he would have called Lampard a few times and drove a few people over - then he hadn't gone before because of the first refusal because of the team training. Did Luo never say anything again?

As soon as Mourinho heard what his assistant said, he knew that this kid wasn't holding back any good intentions. He was a little curious, so he called and deliberately said something unpleasant, but the man didn't react at all - it was all about their Chelsea tactics. It’s coming!

In less than a minute, Capello called again. Mourinho quickly said to the phone that he would let them go to the national team training this weekend and hung up the phone again.

When we went home together in the afternoon, Mourinho specifically told Endrit about this matter.

"If he asks, just tell the truth."

"Huh?" Endritt was a little confused, "Is it okay to just say it directly? This is not our secret weapon at Chelsea..."

Mourinho was amused, "Ritter, What are you thinking? Do you think that even if we announce this tactic, teams with the same problem as us at Chelsea can follow us? "

Why not? As long as they want to win the game and win, of course . You'll learn."

Mourinho reached out and touched Endrit's head, "Do other teams have you as a goalkeeper? No. This tactic is as effective as it is now because of you. Without you, there is no goalkeeper who can guarantee a clean sheet. Why should your teammates bow their heads? Since they may not win if they bow their heads, why should they bow their heads

? "I didn't expect it at all."

"Huh?" "I didn't expect that I was already very

important." "No," Mourinho corrected Endrit's words, "It's very important." 
As soon as the front-footer of the Derricks arrived at St. George's Park, the back-footer was called aside by coach Capello to talk. 

This is the first time the two people communicate face to face. Before, they expressed respect to each other through the media. 

"Chelsea's new offensive method started with you," Capello did not ask a question, but directly gave his conclusion as soon as they met, "right?" 

Endritt nodded. 

"Then you," Capello paused, feeling a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it again and again, he said, "then can you continue to play like this in the national team?" 

Endrit pursed his lips, feeling a little embarrassed. : "Sir, I'm happy to help you, but this is not Chelsea. I don't have much time to train with my teammates from the national team, and they won't trust me completely and unconditionally like our teammates from Chelsea." " 

Counterattack is a split second . 
For things to be effective, they must do whatever I ask them to do immediately, without any hesitation." Endrit shrugged, "But coach, I'm just a newcomer to the national team." 

"This. Simple," Capello made an instant decision, "Just be the captain." 

Endrit:? ? ? ? 

etc! That’s not what I meant by what I just said! 

"No, coach, I didn't mean that, I shouldn't..." 

"No one is more suitable to be captain than you," Capello stretched out his hands and put them on Endritt's shoulders, "How did you train at Chelsea? How to train here." 

Endrit held Coach Capello's wrist and tried to step back, "No, coach..." 

"From now on, you and I will decide the list of players. Whoever does not perform well in training, then you Just tell him that he doesn’t need to play in the next national team games.” 

Endrit:! ! ! ! 

This, this, this condition, this... How can he be embarrassed to refuse... 

Capello is sincere and very urgent: the England national team he took over is a complete mess. Not only that, he also has to carry this with him this year. The mess continues in the European Cup. The Football Association also hinted that he will at least reach the semi-finals, saying that with Endrit in their national team this year, even the championship can be expected, but considering the team, so we only use Just strive for the top four. 

Damn it! Endrit is the only one in the entire England national team! Without Endrit, there would probably be no England team in this year's European Cup, so he would be able to relax. 

But that's no longer possible. He has to build a team that can deliver in just a few months. Regardless of injuries, the England national team's forward lineup is barely adequate. But considering the injury problem - there is nothing to say, just a total annihilation. 

The configuration of the midfielders looks quite high, but they don't work together at all. Capello stayed up late watching the England national team's games for several days, and he couldn't think of anyone who could bring Lampard and Gerrard together. Method. 

As for the defenders: John Terry didn't come to the training camp, so Ferdinand led the other three defenders in the backcourt alone. Capello can also pass people when he comes on the court. What's even more frightening is that John Terry and Ferdinand are often injured. This year, in most England national team games, players from the opposing team's little-known teams come to the England national team penalty area as easily as they go home. 

He never called Endrit again after Endrit asked for leave once before. The reason was that he was afraid that this kid would see the current situation of the national team and run away without looking back. His teammate Capello didn't call again, fearing that he would go back and deliver some bad news to Endrit. 

but now! It’s different now! 

"This tactic of yours can make a big difference in our national team!" Capello patted Endritt on the shoulder to reassure Endritt. "Our national team's defense is full of loopholes. There can be more than a dozen offensive opportunities in a game. "Ah! After more than a dozen offensive opportunities, you can win the game by scoring just one goal. Think about it, how happy you are~" 

Endrit was a little embarrassed, thinking that the comfort from you, coach, was really heartbreaking. 

"Okay, you go and have a rest first. I will announce this later when everyone is here." 

Endritt nodded, took a deep breath, and walked very calmly towards Chelsea, who came with him today. teammate. 

"Ritter?" Lampard came over with a surprised look on his face and looked up and down Endrit. "What did Coach Capello tell you? Are you so excited?"

"Excited?" Endrit shook his head, "I'm not."

"Not yet," Lampard clicked his tongue, "You just walked over with the same hand and feet."

Endrit's handsome face instantly appeared famous.

"What a good thing, tell me."

Lampard, Wright-Phillips, Cole and John Terry all came over. Endritt did not hide anything and explained in a low voice.

Halfway through the words, the four people's eyes widened. After Endrit finished talking about his power, the four people's mouths also opened wide in unison.

"Ahem!" Endrit coughed lightly, "Don't just look at me, talk!"

Lampard was the first to come to his senses, and then patted Endrit very excitedly, "Cape Is Coach Luo so good?"

"Huh?" Endrit was a little confused, "How did you come to this conclusion from what I just said?"

"Think about Coach McLaren," Lampard shook his head. , "According to what you said, Coach McLaren is just giving you cakes, but Coach Capello is really giving you cakes to eat!"

Endrit stood up straight in awe, "You said That’s right, Coach Capello is very good and can handle it.”
