During the May Day Golden Week, the Premier League play-up matches are underway, and Chelsea will host Tottenham Hotspur. In this game, whether Chelsea can win and show the value of the team is the biggest attraction of this game. As for Tottenham, after losing 3-2 to Arsenal in the previous round, the team will have to give it their all to retain Europa League qualification. In this game, both teams need to win, and the excitement of the game is worth looking forward to.
Chelsea have struggled and failed to deliver on their value
There are many "Mr. Billions" in the Chelsea squad, including Mykhailo Mudryk and Enzo Fernandez, and the average age of the team is only 24.6 years old. Maybe this team is too young, or the cooperation between the stars has never been able to reach a tacit understanding, the team has not been able to really form a joint force, whether it is the psychological quality, or the overall ability to cooperate is very bad. Once you meet a team that really cooperates tacitly, it will often collapse. How can we get a large number of "Mr. 100 million yuan" to make a profit? This is a problem.
Tottenham have a lot of firepower in attack but poor in defence
Tottenham Hotspur have started the season high and low, but the team's attacking power has improved greatly compared to the time of Antonio Conte and Mourinho, and the team has played very well with attacking football. But the team's defensive quality is not good, which is regrettable. Now the team can only fight to secure qualification for the Europa League, but the team does not want to lose in a row and needs to keep picking up points and maintaining morale. Tottenham's attacking firepower now relies too much on Son Heung-min's individual assault, and for Tottenham, how to avoid a complete collapse and avoid consecutive defeats at the end of the season is a question that Post's coaching staff must consider.
This is a duel between the two bosses, judging from Pochettino's performance this season, his time in charge of the Chelsea team will not be too long, and every game may be the last game for the boss in the Chelsea managership.
