Chapter 161 The Old Acquaintances
　　As evening approached.

　　After dinner, the teammates went their separate ways.

　　Li Kang received an email from Van Gaal.

　　The beginning of the email was a lengthy description of how Van Gaal transformed Bayern, laid the foundation, and promoted so-and-so.

　　'Beating Heynckes' Bayern Munich looks difficult, but it is not simple at all.'

　　Van Gaal's preparation advice at the end of the email was only one sentence: "Don't watch the recordings of Heynckes' Bayern matches."

　　Indeed, it was useless.

　　Heynckes' Bayern scored a lot of goals, easily scoring five or nine goals in a single game, and breaking through defenses in extreme positional warfare... Even more terrifying was that the tactical tendencies of each game were different.

　　The 73-year-old Heynckes had reached the realm of "simplifying complexity."

　　...

　　That night.

　　Kroos' column was updated in a timely manner.

　　Kroos stood in front of the tactical board, moving the magnetic pieces.

　　He tapped his temple with his index finger.

　　"After Li joined Chelsea, he doesn't need to use his brain much before the Champions League quarter-finals."

　　"During that stage, Chelsea was marked with Tuchel's distinct attacking football style."

　　"The changeable tactical style makes it difficult to figure out."

　　"Heynckes' Bayern Munich is the same. They will show some distinct characteristics in the attack, but those are just characteristics, not the real tactical framework."

　　"For the first leg of Chelsea against Bayern Munich, I predict that the scene will be very open."

　　Kroos and Heynckes had a close relationship, like a mentor and friend.

　　On the other side.

　　Maguire had a small interlude with his own views, saying seriously:

　　"This Bayern team has a strong ability to break through the defense in positional warfare. The attack is very three-dimensional, and the routines of the offensive chain are very rich."

　　"If Chelsea has a center-back of my type, they can resolve the opponent's attack from the front!"

　　"Don't have one? Then put Li at the forefront. Attacking head-on is a good way to solve the problem!"

　　"Tuchel must not send Fabregas, he will be easily dispersed by this Bayern team!"

　　The audience was convinced of this. Teacher Ma's teaching quality was still very high.

　　They completely ignored the recommendation column on the lower side of the interface... which was full of what.

　　...

　　Time was like a rushing stream.

　　Winter passed and spring came, and in the blink of an eye, it was April.

　　April was no longer rainy, and Chelsea marched triumphantly in the league, invincible, dyeing the sky of London blue.

　　Premier League Round 26.

　　Chelsea played Tottenham at home.

　　Tuchel used the full main lineup, and the whistle sounded to grab the start.

　　Pochettino's backhand adjustment was effortless, breaking the game again and again.

　　Stamford Bridge, a river of blood.

　　In the end, Chelsea 5:2 Tottenham.

　　Diego Costa scored a hat-trick, and Kane's goal was difficult to save the master.

　　...

　　Premier League Round 27.

　　Li Kang and his teammates arrived at Turf Moor.

　　This stadium can now only accommodate more than 20,000 spectators, but it has a history of 135 years.

　　Legend has it that it was the first stadium visited by a member of the royal family. In October 1886, Queen Victoria's son appeared in the stands to watch the game.

　　Burnley's state this season is good, currently ranked seventh in the Premier League, and has successfully shaken off the status of a weak team.

　　Tuchel was very cautious and sacrificed half of the main force led by Li Kang.

　　The game between the Blues and the Clarets was particularly fierce, and gradually lost its suspense.

　　Burnley 1:3 Chelsea.

　　Batshuayi felt the care of the main lineup. He often missed opportunities, contributing misses in front of an empty goal and flying shots in one-on-one situations... As a result, he was still forced by Li Kang, Hazard and others... feeding him a 'brace'.

　　...

　　Premier League Round 28.

　　Chelsea played Southampton at home.

　　The super youth training base that made a lot of money... accidentally sold out its immediate combat power this season, and is now in the relegation zone.

　　The unyielding will to stay in the league has not been transformed into combat power.

　　It's like these years, Dynamo Dresden's entire team was full of chicken blood, defending the heritage of the East German powerhouse, the battle of ideology... and the result was the same as being kicked 12:0 by Bayern.

　　Hamburg has a strong enough awareness of relegation, and has not been relegated for 55 years, known as the strongest nail household in the Bundesliga.

　　It's useless, this season it will also be beaten to early relegation.

　　Speaking of "Dynamo".

　　During the Cold War in the last century, clubs with the suffix "Dynamo" distributed around the world were likely to be mysterious organizations. Some players played football during the day, and at night they would transform into mysterious men in black, preventing certain evils from happening in the dark.

　　Especially in East Germany, some people were both football stars and contributed to world peace.

　　Stamford Bridge.

　　Tuchel still carried out a large-scale rotation.

　　There was no suspense in the game.

　　Chelsea 2:0 Southampton.

　　In the Premier League standings, the title race is intensifying.

　　The Blues lead the Blue Moon by 5 points.

　　Manchester City lost two games.

　　Chelsea lost one game, the opponent was the Iron Hammer Gang - West Ham United.

　　Fans have said: "Tough luck," "The Iron Hammer Gang is the king of metaphysics," "Big brother takes care of little brother."

　　...

　　Three days later.

　　FA Cup semi-final.

　　Chelsea vs West Ham United.

　　Tuchel had difficulty breathing and beat the grass frantically.

　　His mind was replaying the wonderful scenes of the football hitting the post and crossbar.

　　In the 90 minutes of regular time, the two sides drew 0-0. Extra time was still 0-0, and the winner was finally decided by a penalty shootout.

　　Chelsea successfully advanced to the FA Cup final!

　　...

　　Approaching the Champions League semi-final.

　　The Premier League media and the Bundesliga media did not start a "cannon fire."

　　Chelsea legends jumped out to cheer for the club.

　　Drogba said: If Tuchel doesn't know how to beat Bayern, he can consider letting Cech take off his suit and put on his gloves. That guy is the nemesis of the Bundesliga giants.

　　Cech said: I can't do it.

　　The most well-known game between Chelsea and Bayern in recent years is the 2012 Champions League final, where Cech descended to earth like a god.

　　On the other side.

　　Bayern legends did not mention any topics related to winning or losing.

　　Beckenbauer: "Welcome Li back to Germany. This is the cradle of his dreams."

　　Hoeness: "My sausage factory is ready to invite Li to be the spokesperson. The profits of Veltins beer in recent years are too enviable."

　　Rummenigge: "Li still has a big shortcoming on the green field... and that is his celebration action."
