After Li Ang's strong performance helped Chelsea successfully overturn West Bromwich Albion.

As expected, he once again became the focus of discussion in the entire English football world!

The Arsenal fans who were tied by Manchester United in the last round of the league felt that they were about to go crazy.

At that time, their game was played at the same time as Chelsea's. At the halftime break, Chelsea was 0-1 behind, while they were 2-0 ahead.

Many Arsenal fans had already celebrated in advance at that time.

After all, they were about to kill the traitor Van Persie, and at the same time they could overtake Chelsea and sit at the top of the Premier League.

As a result, after 45 minutes, Chelsea stubbornly reversed West Bromwich Albion.

But Arsenal was tied by the explosive Van Persie's pass and shot in the first half!

In just 45 minutes, Arsenal fans really experienced the emotional ups and downs like a roller coaster.

Seeing Van Persie celebrating wildly with Manchester United players at Old Trafford again, Arsenal fans were about to bite their teeth.

Not only did Arsenal fail to seize the opportunity to overtake Chelsea, but Chelsea also opened up a two-point gap with Arsenal again.

Many Gunners fans were really envious of the surprise celebration of their city rivals.

Cavani is very good, and now Arsenal's defense is relatively stable. They just lack a midfielder like Li Ang who can carry the team at a critical moment!

"Can we strengthen the team in the winter window? It's okay if we can't get Li Ang, can we buy a young midfielder with 70% to 80% of Li Ang's strength?"

An Arsenal fan's message under the Arsenal official Twitter quickly became popular.

Fans of other Premier League teams came to tease this Arsenal fan and let his dream end earlier.

"You can buy a midfielder with 70% to 80% of Li Ang's offensive strength, and you can also buy a midfielder with 70% to 80% of Li Ang's defensive strength.

But want to buy a midfielder as balanced as Li Ang in both offense and defense? Sorry, there is really no such player on the market!"

"Go ask the old man now, if Chelsea is willing to put Li Ang on the transfer market again and let Real Madrid spend 150 million to buy him, do you think Real Madrid is willing?"

"I strongly recommend Khedira, the real core of Paris Saint-Germain. He is good at both offense and defense, has abundant physical strength, and is a good friend of Li Ang. He is known as the beggar version of Li Ang..."

Under the jokes of various fans, Arsenal fans can only smile helplessly.

In fact, their current midfield configuration is also very good.

The double defensive midfielder combination of Toulalanga and Arteta is balanced in offense and defense, and with Cazorla, it is a top midfield configuration in the Premier League.

Look at the game scenes in the past few years where the waist was not strong enough, and then look at the solid defense and control of Arsenal's backcourt this season, what else do you want!

Maybe it is Li Ang who makes Arsenal fans a little envious of Chelsea.

Of course, it is not just them, but the fans of the entire Premier League, no matter which team.

Who does not envy Chelsea for having a solid midfield core like Li Ang?

This season's schedule has not even passed 1/3, and Li Ang has provided Chelsea with a bottom line and saved the team in times of crisis. It can already be made into a highlight.

When other fans said sourly that if Li Ang had not played in several key moments, Chelsea would currently be ranked third in the Premier League.

Chelsea fans would not have any rebuttal, but would respond with a smile:

That's right, you are all right, it is reasonable for us to rank third in the Premier League... but we are now the first in the Premier League~

Chelsea fans who have just witnessed the team's comeback naturally have the confidence to be proud.

And many industry experts who were not optimistic about Li Ang's performance in his first Premier League season at the beginning of this season did not dare to be stubborn at this time, and could only pinch their noses and admit their misjudgment.

After all, if Li Ang's data is average, then they can also make a fuss about some of Li Ang's small mistakes on the field.

But now Li Ang is ranked third in the Premier League scorer list.

Ahead of him is Cavani, who scored 10 goals in 11 league games, and Suarez, who scored 9 goals in 6 league games after the suspension ended!

And in the Premier League assists list, Li Ang is even more powerful and ranks first!

Do they dare to blacken this data? Then they really don't want to eat this bowl of rice.

However, after the eleventh round of the Premier League, the international match day came again.

These so-called experts were let go by the fans who shifted their attention to the national team games.

Li Ang, who got at least a week of rest time, did not immediately start another intensive special training at the Cobham training base.

He first flew directly to Italy and found Pintus who was on vacation in Turin.

After spending two days with Pintus to reminisce about the past and play in Turin, and modifying and adjusting the original special training plan, Li Ang returned to London.

He spent the next week living in the training base, training in strength and shooting.

A week later, Li Ang's strength value increased a little bit, reaching the current peak of his strength talent value, which is 87.

In terms of shooting, Li Ang's progress was not too great, even though his shooting ability value was still relatively low at the moment, and it should have improved faster.

But after a week of special training, his shooting ability value only increased from 74 to 75.

It seems that this ability still needs to be used more in the game, and more attempts will lead to faster breakthrough progress.

No matter how much you practice in normal times, it is still quite difficult to make threatening and accurate shots in front of the goal when you encounter strong confrontation or emergencies in the game.

This made Li Ang's sense of urgency increase a few points.

Although Li Ang scored a lot of goals in the previous Premier League, it can even be said that he far exceeded his own expectations.

But Li Ang himself knew that he still benefited from the fact that other Premier League defenders were not very familiar with him.

The better his previous performance, the more detailed and thorough the coaches of other teams will study him during the league's big break on international match days.

For example, his threatening long-range shots and the dribbling skills he has shown recently.

It turns out that the defenders and midfielders in the Premier League are not aware of his shooting range, shooting habits, and his usual ways of passing.

So suddenly facing him, it is inevitable that he will suffer two or three losses in a game.

But after the fight, or after watching others fight with him.

With a response plan and repeated review of the game video, the coaching staff of each team will also make corresponding tactical targets for him.

This situation is not only in the Premier League, but also common in other leagues.

So fans will see this situation every season:

In the first half of the season, a certain young player suddenly performed well and emerged.

The team has a good record, the fans strongly support it, and the media also praises it vigorously, as if the next star of tomorrow is already rising.

But as the game progresses, it is in the second half of the league, or even in the middle of the league at an earlier time node.

These young players who performed well in the past suddenly lost their fire.

If fans observe carefully, they will find that it is not that these young players have become weaker, or that the opponents they have to face have collectively become stronger.

Instead, each team has targeted defensive pressure on these young players who suddenly became popular.

Force you to use your non-dominant foot, double-team, confront, and compress your dribbling space...

After this defensive package, most young players will fall into a vicious circle of low performance.

Li Ang is very familiar with this situation, and he is naturally very confident in his own strength.

But he has also prepared for the defensive targets of various Premier League teams after the international match day.

This is not a difficult thing for him.

After all, if others block his shooting space or double-team him, he can still pass the ball to help his teammates get more offensive opportunities.

But his sense of crisis is always urging him to improve his arsenal as soon as possible.

It doesn't matter if it takes time to train slowly, as long as you can see continuous progress.

If you can't get up this season, you will work harder in the offseason!

When his shooting and crossing skills are both over 80, others will have to spend more energy to defend him.

After the special training, Li Ang lay on the grass of the Cobham training base and clicked on the ability attribute panel in the system.

Looking at the ability values ​​of over 85 now, and thinking about his poor offensive attributes at the beginning, Li Ang is quite satisfied!

Strength: 87 (87)

Physical fitness: 94 (98)

Speed: 84 (93)

Acceleration: 87 (93)

Dribbling: 82 (93)

…

After taking a look at his unsociable shooting and crossing ability, Li Ang turned off the system panel and walked leisurely to the physiotherapy area.

The next morning, the Chelsea first-team players who had played the national team friendly returned to the base to report.

In the next round of the Premier League, Chelsea's opponent is West Ham United, which is also located in the London area.

Well, it's another London derby.

Even though the Hammers are only one point higher than the relegation zone, Mourinho does not look down on them at all.

As we all know, West Ham United is generally not the most recognized dirtiest team in the Premier League after each season.

But they almost appear in the list of the dirtiest Premier League teams selected by various media every season, and their rankings are not low.

The fans of the Hammers will naturally give the team's style more pleasant words such as iron-blooded and tough.

But in the eyes of other victimized Premier League teams, the Hammers are really desperate and really dirty when they play at home!

At the end of last season, the Sun held a selection of the dirtiest teams and dirtiest players in the Premier League.

West Ham United was ranked second among the dirtiest teams in the Premier League at that time.

The first is the Sky City Stoke City, who received 485 fouls and 78 yellow cards throughout the season.

West Ham United's two season statistics are 470 fouls and 74 yellow cards!

In the first eleven league rounds of this season, West Ham United only achieved two wins, four draws and five losses, and West Ham United achieved two wins and two draws at home.

So Mourinho has to pay attention to the next away game against West Ham United.

Tactical arrangement is one aspect, and how to make the players not suffer on the field and protect the health of the players is another issue...

On the evening of November 23, Chelsea will visit Upton Park to challenge the Hammers West Ham United.

This nominal London derby did not attract much media attention before the game.

Because Chelsea's current performance is too outstanding and West Ham United's league ranking is too low, it is difficult to attract the interest of fans in the suspense of the game.

In contrast, the strong dialogue between Manchester City and Tottenham, which started at the same time, is the focus of the British media.

But after the game at Upton Park officially started, less than 45 minutes later, the attention of various British media was attracted back to Chelsea and West Ham United.

What attracted their attention was not how exciting the game between Chelsea and West Ham United was.

It was because before the half-time game was over, the players of Chelsea and West Ham United received 6 yellow cards!

One team received three yellow cards, a very balanced number of cards.

The hot rhythm of this game and the gunpowder smell between the players of the two teams can also be seen.

When the game entered the halftime break, Li Ang and West Ham United's midfielder Noble were arguing in the player channel!

The reason was that Noble used a very fierce side-to-back tackle in the first half, causing De Bruyne to lie on the grass for a full two minutes!

And Li Ang used a similar method three minutes later to make Noble lie on the grass painfully for two minutes!

Noble and West Ham United players accused Li Ang of deliberately retaliating.

But Li Ang not only did not defend himself, but also threatened Noble that if he dared to commit malicious fouls against other Chelsea players again, he would make Noble pay the price today!

Li Ang originally wanted to threaten Noble with a broken leg, but for the sake of the club's reputation, Li Ang finally changed his words.

The arrogant West Ham United players saw that the fierceness in Li Ang's eyes did not seem fake, and they dared not to continue to provoke this angry lion.

After all, Noble was almost shoveled away by Li Ang on the court before, and the scene of him screaming and rolling on the ground was still vivid in their minds.

The referee had already shown his studs directly, but he only gave Li Ang a yellow card and scolded other West Ham United players to warn them not to make trouble!

This biased whistle made West Ham United players doubt whether this was still their home court.

In front, Li Ang decisively retaliated for the foul, and in the back, Terry choked and knocked down West Ham United striker Nolan.

The two evil men of Chelsea, one in front and one behind, made the West Ham United players restrain their actions.

Mourinho certainly couldn't express his opinion directly, but he didn't scold Li Ang and Terry in the locker room. Instead, he just told them to be careful not to get hurt.

This attitude actually says it all.

In the second half of the game, the Chelsea team, which was in a tough match with West Ham United, was full of momentum!

When facing a team that seemed to be even tougher than them, did not shy away from lethal foul tactics, and seemed to be favored by the officials.

West Ham United suddenly became soft.

In the 68th minute of the second half, when Li Ang knocked over Noble and headed into the goal in the West Ham United penalty area.

He ran to the corner flag area arrogantly, put one hand behind his ear and made a listening gesture!

There was a deafening booing in Upton Park!

Because the direction of Li Ang's listening celebration was the South Stand where West Ham United's diehard fans gathered!

This was a naked provocation!

But Li Ang didn't care at all.

He only remembered that when De Bruyne was tackled, West Ham United fans booed and laughed at him!

He was very upset, and he didn't expect these fans to apologize to De Bruyne, so he wanted to take revenge himself!

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!

If you can't beat us, then you can only endure the revenge and provocation!

The boos at the scene seemed to be louder, but the smile on Li Ang's face was also stronger.

This is also him, the most real him.

If there is a grudge, it must be avenged, and it will be avenged on the spot!
