Coaching started in Mainz, then became Dortmund manager, first led the team to the Champions League final, and then won the Champions League... That's the path That Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has followed, and it's also for Chelsea manager Tuchel.
After winning the Champions League in 2018-19, Klopp led Liverpool to the Premier League title in 2019-20.
In the 2020-21 season, Tuchel led Chelsea to win the Champions League, and this season, Chelsea once showed a strong momentum of winning the Premier League, but it is not comparable to Liverpool, who rode in the Premier League in the 2019-20 season.
In the 15th round of the Premier League this season, Chelsea was reversed 3:2 by West Ham United, and fell from the top position to the third, before the second Manchester City, the third Liverpool rose to the first and second, but the gap is not large, the lead is only 1 point.
But then, the three manchester city maintained a full victory, Liverpool, Chelsea two from time to time to lose points, in the second, third repeated switch, and the gap with Manchester City is getting bigger and bigger.
In the 20th round of the Premier League, Liverpool away to Leicester City, this opponent is not easy to deal with, but if you want to compete for the title, you must beat any opponent. But Liverpool not only did not win, but also lost, and Salah lost the penalty he had created.
This is another good opportunity for Chelsea, beating Brighton at home in this round, beating Liverpool at home in the next round, and then stepping on Liverpool in the Premier League table to bite Manchester City, and then waiting for Manchester City to lose points, Chelsea may regain the top spot at any time.
Brighton was a dark horse at the beginning of the season, but after all, the overall strength was limited, and he quickly returned to where he should be.
Chelsea started 3421, and Lukaku, who has recently returned from injury in excellent form, started as a centre forward, with Hudoly Andoi and Mount on both sides, midfielders Rees James, Jorginho, Kovacic and Pulisic, three centre-backs Rudiger, Christensen and Azpilicueta, and goalkeeper E. Mendy. The total value of the starting eleven is as high as 510 million euros. The total value of the eleven people opposite is only 140 million euros.
In the last round of Chelsea's away rival Aston Villa, Lukaku came off the bench to take the lead and then created a penalty in the last moment, Jorginho scored both penalties, Chelsea won 3:1, after the game, Jorginho was full of confidence, "I hope that our striker can continue to score goals to become the team's top scorer instead of me." This year was definitely the best year of my career, and winning these titles doesn't happen every year. ”
This time at home to Brighton, Jorginho was looming on the field, and there was no penalty for him. Scoring goals also depends on the striker.
In the 28th minute, Chelsea's corner kick was cleared and Lukaku's header was cleared. Chelsea lead Brighton 1-0.
Previously in Serie A, and now in the Premier League, Romelu Lukaku has repeatedly commented that he is already the world's top center with Levan, Kane and Suarez. But now Mo said that the top five of the top five league top scorers, even the top ten of the Premier League top scorers list can not find Lukaku's name. Back at Chelsea, Romelu Lukaku has scored just five goals in the Premier League. Last season, Lukaku was the Silver Boot in Serie A and was the number one contributor to Inter's serie A title.
It's not enough to score a goal by one person, it's not enough to score just one goal, and the game went into 90 minutes and Brighton equalized. The 3 points in hand turned into 1 point, and Chelsea was dumbfounded.
In the current Premier League table, Manchester City leads with 50 points in 20 games, Chelsea ranks second with 42 points, and Liverpool ranks third with 41 points in the first round of the game. In the next round, Chelsea's home game against Liverpool will be "sandpipers fighting each other", and "fisherman's profit" is Manchester City.
Back in October, after Chelsea's 1-0 away defeat to Juve in the Champions League group stage, former Inter boss Antonio Antonio Conte pointed out: "Lukaku is one of the most difficult strikers to deal with and if Chelsea know how to use him, they will be a difficult team to beat. ”
Conte in a word! If Lukaku were at inter level now, Chelsea's record could have been even stronger.
Buying back Lukaku, Chelsea spent €115 million, played 13 Premier League games and scored just five goals, apparently being used cheaply by Tuchel.
