After being rejected, I became Shi Yijiao

Chapter 405

September [-], Goodison Park.

After two weeks of suspension, the Premier League reignited the battle, Chelsea away to Everton.

Now Chelsea is more and more affected by the international match day, because almost all the players are international players!

In the current team, only the third goalkeeper Amelia and two young forwards Abraham, Mbappé, and veteran Terry are not members of the national team.

Although Abraham and Mbappe are not in the national team, they are also in the national youth team, and they also want to play games.

So if Chelsea were to train during the international break, it would only be Terry who would be shooting against Amelia.

Therefore, in this round of the league, Pan Yi mainly arranged for those players who played two full national team games to rest, and let those who only played one and a half games, or those national team substitutes who did not play, to face Everton.

However, the continuous running and fighting still affected the team to some extent, and many players showed fatigue.

As a result, the team was greatly affected and performed poorly, which made Chelsea's offense unable to play a threat for a long time.

Pan Yi quickly made the first substitution adjustment of the game, replacing Harry Kane with teenager Mbappe.

Then he replaced Marcos Alonso with Cancelo, hoping to play speed on the court.

But in the No. 70 two minutes of the game, Everton's coach Roberto Martinez used up three substitutions in just six or seven minutes.

He even replaced two forwards in the team, replaced by a defensive midfielder Barry, and then replaced defender Coleman.

Obviously, he wanted to defend the tie.

Although it is a home game, facing Chelsea, Martinez obviously feels that only one point is enough.

Judging from the current scene, Chelsea is still in control of the situation, but the poor state of the players makes it difficult to break Everton's goal.

Therefore, Martinez does not expect to steal three points from Chelsea.

Everyone else loses against Chelsea, and if he draws, isn't it a guaranteed profit?
"The game is about to enter 10 minutes."

"The score is still zero-to-zero. Chelsea look like they're in a bad game."

"Pan Yi's team completely controlled the game, but they couldn't organize an effective offensive. We can only say that as a big player in the international football team, Chelsea has indeed been greatly affected and has also encountered challenges."

"According to the current trend of the game, it looks like this game is really going to be a draw."

Pan Yi was always standing on the sidelines, watching the excited expression of Everton coach Martinez in front of the coaching bench of the home team not far away, but he was unmoved.

Can you get a tie if you want to?
There are still more than ten minutes before the end of the game, and I still have an ace in my hand.

Later, as long as Hazard is replaced, using his ball control and breakthrough, he can kill a world in the midfield...

However, the plan has not kept up with the changes.

While Pan Yi was still thinking about how to open up the situation after replacing Hazard, on the court, Chelsea forward Lukaku and the opponent's central defender Jagelka collided and fell to the ground.

"Won't Hanhan get hurt?" Pan Yi's heart tightened.

Now Lukaku's fulcrum role in Chelsea's formation is still very important, and his speed and impact will be needed later to cooperate with Hazard's pass.

The teammate and team doctor Wolfart immediately ran over to help him.

This scene made the Everton fans in the stands and Martinez on the sidelines even more excited.

Harry Kane has gone down, and now Lukaku can't do it anymore. Chelsea's two forwards are not here, so how can they break through Everton's goal?
Joy blossomed in Martinez's heart.

In just 10 minutes, we can successfully take away a point from Chelsea!

At this time, Pan Yi had already received the diagnosis information from the team doctor Wolfart on the sidelines.

Lukaku is fine, but there is a slight contusion on the calf caused by the collision. For the sake of insurance, it is recommended not to let him continue the game.

Pan Yi nodded, and immediately turned to look at the bench behind him.

There, there was another center, Abraham.

Yes, Pan Yi decided to temporarily change his strategy, instead of going to Hazard, he directly changed to Abraham.

The main reason is that Mbappe on the field, including Hazard who was going to be replaced, can't play a fulcrum center.

Now that Everton is fully retreating, it is particularly important to have a fulcrum in the penalty area that can make the ball, ferry the header or shoot.

So it can only go to Abraham.

He has height, weight, and speed. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a small Lukaku.

Moreover, his aggressiveness, work commitment, and teamwork attitude are also very good on the field, so Pan Yi plans to let him play as a tight striker to put more pressure on Everton's defense, and he can also play in the middle. Support teammates to do a good job of fulcrum.

At this time, Abraham immediately jumped up from the bench after hearing the shout of the head coach Pan Yi, took off his coat, revealed a body of strong muscles that were stretched by the jersey, and greeted the head coach .

"I'm ready, boss." Abraham said heavily.

Pan Yi knows that he has been waiting for an opportunity. He has performed well in several appearances this season, but he has not scored a goal so far.

"Can I trust you?" Pan Yi asked, staring at him without blinking.

Abraham nodded emphatically: "Yes, boss, I will do everything for you."

Of course he was grateful to Pan Yi.

At the age of 17, he was promoted to the first team by Pan Yi and began to really play for the Champions League champions.

The level of training has improved, and my ability has also improved, including the contract has officially been converted to a professional contract, and now I can get a weekly salary of [-]... It is not an exaggeration to say that I am grateful to Dade.

Pan Yi nodded, put one hand on Abraham's shoulder, and pointed around with the other: "Look, everyone here, Everton's players, fans and head coach, want to tie us, and you know why ?"

"Because they know that it is impossible to beat us." Abraham replied confidently.

"Yes, for them, one point is a victory." Pan Yi smiled, "but for us, one point is unacceptable. Maybe if it is really a draw, the game will still be It will be on the headlines tomorrow."

Abraham nodded, he had no doubts about it.

Since the start of this season, Chelsea has maintained a record of unbeaten victories, including defeating Arsenal to win the Community Shield, defeating Sevilla to win the UEFA Super Cup, and easily defeating Manchester City to win the Battle of Tianwangshan.

As Everton, who only finished 11th last season and did not have any big signings this season, if they can really tie with Chelsea, it can definitely be regarded as an upset.

"But have you ever thought about it?" Pan Yi changed the topic, "If you play well after playing, or even score a goal to win the team, then it will not be Ivor who will make the headlines tomorrow morning. Don, it's you, Tammy Abraham."

Pan Yi's words made Abraham's eyes widen, and he became a little excited.

Since he was promoted to the first team by Pan Yi's favor, his reputation has grown a lot.

Although due to the lack of playing time in the first team, he has not been called up by the national team for the time being, but he also joined the U21 national team by leapfrogging.

Because everyone knows that Pan Yi never misses people.

As long as it is a player that Pan Yi likes, any coach will try to use it, and the coaches of the England national team at all levels are of course no exception.

The current head coach of the England U21 national team is the former international "Southgate" Southgate. He has always admired Pan Yi, so he also values ​​​​Abraham, and he has been allowed to start in recent games.

But Abraham also knows that if he wants to go further to get the call of the England national team, he must perform better in the first team.

It's just, how easy is it to have a stable playing time at Chelsea?

The competition here is very fierce.

Abraham not only has to face the pressure of the "predecessor" Harry Kane and the Premier League Golden Boot Lukaku, but also competes with the teenager Mbappe.

And obviously, even Mbappe, who is younger than him, has more chances to play than him.

On the one hand, Mbappe is recognized as a player with better talent, and on the other hand, it is also related to the characteristics of the players.

Because Abraham is considered a weakened version of Lukaku, basically as long as Lukaku is still on the court, he is unlikely to play;

But Mbappe is the kind of super fast explosive player, arguably faster than all Chelsea's current players.

This has special tactical significance for Pan Yi, and playing Mbappe on many occasions can have immediate results.

Therefore, Abraham needs to seize every opportunity, because every opportunity is very rare for him.

And today is an opportunity.

As the head coach Pan Yi said, as long as he catches it tonight, he might become famous.

More importantly, his status in Pan Yi's mind will also be improved accordingly, and his starting position may of course be advanced.

With the raising of the fourth official substitution card, Abraham came on as a substitute for Lukaku!

After playing, Abraham was very active.

He gave full play to his characteristics in the frontcourt and actively scrambled, which also drove Chelsea's frontcourt offense and suppressed Everton in the halfcourt.

All Everton fans felt Chelsea's furious attack at the last moment and their determination to score goals, and their hearts were uneasy.

Everton's head coach Martinez kept yelling anxiously on the sidelines, sometimes with foul language.

Obviously, in order to be able to draw with Chelsea, he can no longer care about his image at all.

Although Pan Yi still looked very calm, with his hands folded around his chest, watching the game silently, but in fact he was a little uneasy in his heart.

After all, Lukaku's end disrupted his plan.

Can Abraham do it?Can he play the role of Lukaku?Pan Yi was not sure.

Pan Yi is not sure what effect Pan Yi said to Abraham before he played.

After all, for a young player, after hearing that this game will make him famous, some may become nervous because of excitement, resulting in abnormal performance.

And if it is a good young player, then he will be greatly encouraged, and it is possible to perform at a super level.

Of course, Pan Yi hoped it would be the latter, but he really didn't know which direction the current Abraham's psychology would go.

It can only be a fight and see luck! ——
As time passed, Chelsea still suppressed Everton, planning wave after wave of attacks.

"We saw that Chelsea continued to maintain the offensive pressure, and Everton even retreated across the board. The home team has obviously settled down and is determined to draw Chelsea at home."

"Not only the players and the coaching staff, everyone listens to the voices of the fans in the stands...'Defense!' 'Defense!' This is imitating the shouts of the NBA, and they are also encouraging players to work hard on defense."

"For Everton, it really takes hard work to be able to draw with Chelsea at home. This is also a difficult challenge for them. Now it seems that they are about to succeed."

"However, the closer the game got to the end, the more crazy the Chelsea players were attacking."

"We can all see that they all want to take all the three points, and they all try their best to play the game. It's just that many Chelsea players today have been affected by the national team competition. The shooting accuracy is poor.”

"But there is no way, this is professional football. As a wealthy team with many national team players, it is necessary to cope with this situation..."

On the pitch, Chelsea were forced to pass back after another attack failed to work.

It can be clearly seen that Captain Terry is calling on his teammates, telling everyone not to worry, to hold their ground, to control the ball before passing it, instead of blindly moving forward and losing the ball.

"Chelsea fell back and stabilized the rhythm, but there was not much time left in the game."

"The fourth official on the sidelines raised the stoppage time card. In the second half of this game, there were only 2 minutes of stoppage time."

"In the last two minutes, let's see if Chelsea can launch an attack."

"Okay, pass back to the right, to Ivanovic."

"Ivanovic took the ball over the halfway line and into the frontcourt."

"This should be the last attack of the game, and it should be Chelsea's last chance."

"Look at Ivanovic's handling this time."

"He played the ball in the middle, gave it to Matic, continued forward and gave it to Chick."

"Cheek is assigned to the right again. After these few passes and cuts, he has opened up space on the right, and Ivanovic has also inserted along the side."

"Ivanovic has a chance! He goes down to the baseline, crosses into the box..."

"The ball went in!!!!!!"

"Goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!"

"No. 901 minutes in the second half, No. 901 minutes, at the last moment of the game, Chelsea finally broke through Everton's goal! This is a golden goal!"

"Let's see, the hero of the goal is Tammy Abraham! He inserted in the middle at high speed, and still grabbed this point when he was closely marked by Everton defender Jagelka!"

"I believe that if it is not a Chelsea fan, I am afraid that many people are not familiar with him."

"This 17-year-old striker is a product of Chelsea's own youth training. He joined the Chelsea youth training camp when he was less than 7 years old. This season, he was favored by Pan Yi and was directly promoted from the U18 youth team to the first team."

"He has also won many opportunities to play this season. He performed well. He feels that his speed and body are very good. He also scored assists, but he did not score. Today, at a critical moment, he calmly seized the opportunity and finally scored. Score the first goal of his career!"

"One to zero, Abraham scored the winning goal."

On the sidelines, Pan Yi jumped up from the ground at the moment Abraham pushed and scored the goal, extremely excited.

The ball really won the thrill.

From the perspective of the game process, Chelsea's win is indisputable. Whether it is the possession rate, the opportunity to create a threat, or the overall performance, the Blues should score three points.

But sometimes football is just like that, being better doesn't mean you win.

What's more, Chelsea's players have participated in more national team games, and their physical energy consumption is very serious. This has caused the players to be generally not excited enough, and they have never been able to break through Everton's goal.

Well now, we scored at the last moment and took all three points.

Just when Pan Yi was very excited, Abraham had already rushed along the field, all the way to the coach's bench of the visiting team, hugged Pan Yi forcefully, and directly hugged the head coach by the waist.

This is already considered a "reserved program" in the Chelsea team.When young players score goals, they like to hug Pan Yi.

Of course, among all the people present, no one is more excited than Abraham.

This is the first goal of his career, a goal that will be recalled many years later, and it is also an important goal to enhance his confidence in his career path!
Just as Pan Yi said, this is a golden goal, and it may also make Abraham famous, because tomorrow's major sports newspapers will write words like "Abraham scored the lore goal" .

And all the players around also rushed forward, surrounding Pan Yi and Abraham. It wasn't until the referee urged them to go back to the game that they realized that there was still 1 minute left in the game.

"Boss, how do you know he can do it?" Arteta watched Abraham return to the court and asked Pan Yi with a smile.

"I said I just use him to try my luck, do you believe me?" Pan Yi smiled.

"I don't believe it." Arteta shook his head, "Every time you adjust your tactics and make substitutions, you have a very clear purpose, and this time is definitely no exception."

"Okay." Pan Yi smiled without saying a word.

No way, if you have always been successful, then all your actions in the future will definitely be regarded as meaningful.

Pan Yi didn't bother to explain. Anyway, Abraham was promoted to the first team, and he seized the opportunity very vigorously, saying that the goal was caused by Pan Yi's "strategy", which is not a big problem...

"We've finally made it through this round, and it's up to you to adjust later, otherwise the physical fitness may not be able to take it." Pan Yi told Pintus and Wolfart.

The fitness coach and the chief team doctor both focused on their heads.

In fact, if it's just a double match a week, Chelsea's players can handle it completely, and they won't play so hard like this game against Everton.

More importantly, it is because the players play in the national team.

In various national teams, after all, many things are not as good as the club's norms - especially the club's norms like Chelsea, coupled with the long distances and long journeys, players spend more energy on the journey.

Of course, in this home game, Everton played really well, with a solid defense.

But Pan Yi is right. There are national team games in September and October, which consume a lot of players. Although November and December do not have the influence of the national team, European games are very intensive, which affects the physical fitness of the players. It will also be a big challenge.

If we talk about the near-point test, five days later, that is, on September 9, Chelsea will start the journey of this season's Champions League group stage, and will face the Bundesliga powerhouse Wolfsburg at home in the first round.

Then two days later, on September 9, they will play against Manchester United in the Premier League.

Afterwards, there will be matches in the League Cup, Premier League, and Champions League. The interval between each other is about three or four days. It can be said that the physical requirements are still very high.

Pan Yi can do the rotation by himself, but for the overall physical recovery, Pan Yi can only place his hopes on his assistants.

But it's okay, Pintus and Wolfart are both the first and second figures in their respective fields, so they naturally have a way to deal with all this...

When everyone turned their heads to watch the game again, the referee had already blown the final whistle.

In the last 1 minute, Everton couldn't make a fuss. They didn't even have a forward on the field. They still thought they could score another goal in 1 minute to equalize?What about peaches?
Therefore, in fact, after Abraham scored the lore goal, the end of the game has actually been judged.

The celebrations were celebrated for half a minute, and then kicked off for another 30 seconds. The last minute was just going through the motions.

As a result, Chelsea defeated Everton 1-0 in the away game, winning the first five consecutive Premier League victories!
They also undisputedly occupy the top spot after five rounds.

In second place is Manchester City with 4 wins and 1 loss. Except for losing to Chelsea, they won all other games.

It is a bit of a surprise to be ranked third.

It turned out to be Leicester City with 3 wins, 2 draws and 11 points!
Behind Leicester City are Manchester United and Arsenal with 10 points. They also have a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Manchester United lost to Swansea 1:2 in the fourth round, while Arsenal lost to West Ham United in the first round.

Next, these top-ranked teams will usher in the Champions League games, while Leicester City can rest comfortably and concentrate on coping with the Premier League games.

Although they are not as good as Manchester City in terms of points, they are another team besides Chelsea that can remain unbeaten so far!

Coupled with the fact that there is no European mission, they do have a chance to make some waves in the BIG6 group.

This also has to make people re-examine Pan Yi's statement that "Leicester City is the biggest threat".

Some tabloids even speculated:
"The rebirth of the relegation team Leicester City this season must have something to do with Pan Yi!"

"From the deal between Chelsea and Leicester City regarding Mikel, and the addition of many Leicester City veterans to the York City team, which is suspected to be controlled by Pan Yi, there must be inextricable connections between the two."

"Perhaps Pan Yi provided some technical support to Ranieri in private, which made Leicester City's defensive counterattack so sharp, and the use of Vardy also has the same style as when he was in Hamburg."

"Considering that Leicester City's Thai boss Vichai and Pan Yi are both Asians, maybe there is cooperation between the two at the capital level?"

"But no matter what, it seems that as long as we get closer to Pan Yi, the team will have a huge change. This coach of Longguo really seems to have a kind of magic power! Oh no, it should be immortal energy."

"I heard that an American company invested by Mansur, the owner of Manchester City, has started to sponsor the York City team. Could it be that they also want to take a chance..."
