Chapter 773 Psychological Shadow, Minimum Consumption
Compared with Wenger's pessimism, Mourinho was full of confidence when he attended the press conference with Dong Fangzhuo. At the press conference in London, he first praised Chelsea and himself, and then stepped on his opponent.
"Chelsea is indeed the best club in England now, but if you think about it comprehensively, you should see that the intensity of England has dropped significantly since I left. The main reason why Chelsea leads easily is that there is no team that can compete with them. The team and I have left a legacy at Chelsea."
Mourinho doesn't think Chelsea is so strong now, purely because of Scolari, that's because Mourinho left too much behind!
"Chelsea's lineup is indeed very strong, but are their players really much better than Manchester United and Arsenal? I don't think so, so that can only be a question of the conductor."
A true reflection of Moyes and Wenger!
"And when we face Arsenal tonight, it's another Chelsea team playing Arsenal. My players will definitely win here, just like every other time."
"Now is the time to prove our strength. We are not afraid of Arsenal at all because I have found their destiny."
He didn't even need to set off any smoke bombs.
"We will beat Arsenal with a 4,312 formation. I told my players, don't think that in the next 15 days we will end our Champions League journey, because in these 15 days, we will beat a weak Arsenal." Mourinho's way of encouraging players is always so special: "We are a great team, and so are our opponents. I know that tomorrow's game may not decide anything. The game at the Emirates Stadium is the key, but I I also believe in the impact that tomorrow’s game will have. I told my players, don’t be afraid, as long as we play our characteristics, it will be enough to beat Arsenal.”
Mourinho even revealed some players in advance. There is no doubt that this is in line with his usual style. Crespo and Balotelli will partner up front, goalkeeper Cesar, Maicon and Thornton two full-backs, Camby Yasuo, Stankovic, and Zanetti midfielders, he only left the final suspense on the topic of who will serve as the center back combination.
Next, he left time for Dong Fangzhuo. Both of them were once influential figures in England, so they will naturally be pursued by media reporters one after another.
"Dong, how many goals do you think we can score in this game?"
"Then it depends on how many mistakes Toure and Gallas made. I like the way Toure and Gallas defend very much. We will always compete with each other in the game, and then watch them show innocent eyes..."
This is Chi Guoguo hinting that Gala and the others are no match...

Before the game, the Emirates Stadium also welcomed back the former gun king Henry. Because Henry was injured in the league and could not represent his new club Barcelona against Lyon, he simply bought a plane ticket back to London to cheer for Arsenal.
In an interview with the British "Times", Henry could not hide his attachment to his former club.
Talking about this game, Henry said: "In my eyes, Arsenal will win. The reason why I say this is because of the strength of the team and the way of playing. In addition, Arsenal's recent momentum has been very strong. This Make them unbeatable and I hope Arsenal can continue that."
Henry also did not forget to give advice to his old club Arsenal: "Adriano is not here, so we just need to guard against the Chinese Dong. He is very strong, fast and has good ball control. If Arsenal can guard against him, it will be a great success." It is very possible to eliminate Inter Milan. In addition, Arsenal’s defense is very solid and they have the strength to win any game.”
The reporter from "The Times" rolled his eyes in his heart. He was right to guard against Dong Fangzhuo, but is Arsenal's defense very solid? Do you want to ask Gala and Toure?
Contrary to Henry's view, former Arsenal star Ian Wright expressed his own opinion. He is not optimistic that his old club can advance.
“The four teams in the UK participating in the knockout rounds of the Champions League,
Arsenal is the most tragic, because their opponent Inter Milan is now in a rising stage. Arsenal can't even win against Manchester United, so why should they compete against Inter Milan? Obviously, I prefer my old club to advance. Adebayor and Bendtner have always said that they will shine against top European players. Now is the time to show their strength. I don't know if Arsenal can win tonight, but getting to Meazza in the second leg is key. "

In the away dressing room of the Emirates Stadium, Dong Fangzhuo looked at Vieira and suddenly made a joke about Vieira.
"Patrick, are you faking your injury?"
"What? Why should I do this? I'm dragging my injured leg to London now."
"Because I noticed that every time you came back to London, you were never included in the squad. The same was true the year before last. I remember it clearly."
"..."
"Arsenal will not be able to survive without you. Even Cesc Fabregas is not here today. In this game, I feel..."
"Maybe!"
Vieira's eyes were a little wandering, thinking about what Dong Fangzhuo said. Like Henry, he always pays attention to Arsenal. Arsenal's results are indeed not very good. It is very difficult to play in the league and the Champions League. Now even if it is The FA Cup and League Cup are not as good as Arsenal's, so how can they be so miserable?
"Arsenal will be the 16th player in the Champions League again this year."
"..."
※※※※
"Arsenal qualified second in the group. In this game, they were missing the injured Cesc Fabregas, Adebayor, Theo Walcott, Eduardo and Rosicky. Diaby, the only one who returned, returned to the starting lineup. Arshavin, who has already played in the Champions League for Zenit this season, is not eligible to play."
"This campaign is the 300th European game that Inter Milan has participated in. Inter Milan is missing Vieira, Samuel and Materazzi. Compared with the first victory over Bologna last weekend, Mourinho made 2 adjustments, Kivu and Stankovic replaced Cordoba and Maxwell respectively."
"The lineups of both sides look incomplete and are not the strongest lineup. In the Champions League, the team with better defense may have a better chance of advancing, but both teams have a little lack of defensive players."
"Of course, this is definitely a good thing for Dong Fangzhuo. This Arsenal may be the weakest Arsenal he has faced." Huang Jianxiang prepared his homework and talked eloquently.
"If Mourinho hadn't allowed Dong Fangzhuo to play three fewer games, Dong Fangzhuo's current number of Champions League goals would definitely not be just 7, but maybe 10. Of course, good steel must be used on the blade, and today we have to see Dong Fangzhuo again. It’s waved!”
"Coach Zhang, do you think Dong Fangzhuo will score?"
"hey-hey,"
Zhang Liu's face dropped, "Jianxiang, I'm going to criticize you on this point. The question you asked is really amateurish. If you asked Dong Fangzhuo if he could score a goal, I would definitely answer yes. You should be like this Ask, how many goals can Xiaodong score? Then I know how to answer..."
"Oh, haha, that seems to be the truth... Then how close do you think Dong Fangzhuo can be?"
"Minimum consumption, 2 pieces!"
"Ha, yes, it's possible...Okay, let's take a look at the lineups of both sides."
"Arsenal should be playing a 451 formation, with No. 1 Almunia, No. 3 Sagna, No. 5 Toure, No. 10 Gallas, No. 22 Clichy, No. 27 Eboue, No. 2 Dia Than, No. 15 Denilson, No. 8 Nasri, No. 11 Van Persie, and No. 26 Bendtner. Why do I feel that Arsenal’s jersey numbers are a bit confusing. Gala actually wears No. 10, and Diaby wears No. 2 instead. People who don’t watch football often think that Gallas plays as an attacking midfielder.”
"Inter Milan has a 4312 formation, No. 12 Cesar, No. 39 Thornton, No. 26 Kivu, No. 24 Rivas, No. 13 Maicon, No. 5 Stankovic, No. 19 Cambiasso, No. 4 No. Zanetti, No. 9 Dong Fangzhuo, No. 18 Crespo, No. 45 Balotelli."
"The game is about to start, and players from both sides have already appeared..."
The moment Arsenal fans saw Dong Fangzhuo in the stands, their hearts immediately felt a little cold.
"Seeing him again, I started to feel nervous inexplicably."
"This guy is a monster."
"He's scored 14 goals for Arsenal, damn it."
"Why can't he get hurt once?"
Although Dong Fangzhuo's jersey changed from Manchester United's No. 9 to Inter Milan's No. 9, Dong Fangzhuo still left an indelible shadow in the hearts of Arsenal fans.
Beep——
Inter Milan turns against visitors!
At the beginning of the game, Maicon dribbled the ball in the right rib and was knocked to the ground by Clichy. Dong Fangzhuo took a free kick from 25 yards and shot directly. The angle was too right and Almunia hugged him directly.
Arsenal tried to control the situation by constantly passing the ball, but Inter Milan's pressing was quite fierce. Denilson made an undue error and gave Inter Milan a corner kick. Cambiasso kicked out from the left In the corner kick, Dong Fangzhuo beat Gala and Toure from 7 yards and headed the goal!
Almunia magically blocked the ball in front of the goal line!
"Ouch——"
"Are you still going to let people live?"
"Damn Dong!"
Dong Fangzhuo's bravery made the Arsenal fans in the stands instantly anxious.
Three minutes later, Dong Fangzhuo hit the goal directly with a free kick from 30 yards away. The ball slightly missed the right post.
"Scared me!"
"Scared me!"
"I don't want to see it!"
Dong Fangzhuo's several consecutive shots made Arsenal fans crazy. Less than ten minutes into the game, Dong Fangzhuo had already tested Arsenal's goal with several shots.
"You are in good condition. Is there really a two-goal minimum cost today?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Inter Milan's attack came again. After receiving the pass from Zanetti, Dong Fangzhuo rode a bicycle on the right side. Clichy followed him and did not dare to take a shot. As a result, Dong Fangzhuo forced a shot from a small angle!
boom--
Almunia was caught off guard!
