In the sports newspapers published the next day, almost all the headlines belonged to Chelsea, who had firmly won the half-way championship.

Although Chelsea has actually won this "championship" early due to its leading position in the standings, it is only after playing Southampton that it truly completes the meeting with all 19 Premier League teams and has truly completed half of the games.

schedule.

In these 19 rounds of games, Chelsea's results were a terrifying 18 wins and 1 draw!

Score up to 55 points!

And if saying this alone is not enough to reflect "horror", take a look at the results of the Premier League winter championship in recent years.

The winter champion in the 2010-2011 season was Manchester United. At that time, they had 11 wins, 7 draws and 1 loss, with 40 points;

The winter champion of the 2011-2012 season was Manchester City, which had 14 wins, 3 draws, 2 losses and 45 points;

The winter champion in the 2012-2013 season was Manchester United, which had 15 wins, 1 draw, 3 losses and 46 points;

The winter champion of the 2013-2014 season was Arsenal, with 13 wins, 3 draws, 3 losses and 42 points;

In other words, based on past experience, you can win the half-time championship in the Premier League with around 40 points.

But this year's Chelsea improved this score by an order of magnitude, directly reaching 55 points!

And looking at Manchester City, who have slowly caught up so far this season, they are ranked second in the standings with 13 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses.

Their score of 43 points, if placed in previous years, they might also be the winter champions!

In other words, in fact, the performance of other Premier League teams this year is quite normal, but Chelsea is too abnormal!

As for the winter championships listed above, in fact, except for Arsenal last year, all other teams won the final Premier League championship.

Well, Arsenal’s collapse after Christmas is not a one-off thing. Last season, they were overtaken by Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea behind them, and in the end they only won...

fourth place!

This season, Arsenal's current performance is even worse.

Although in the past 19th round, they defeated their direct opponent West Ham 2:1 in the fourth round and climbed to the fifth position;

But compared with last season's half-time championship, there is still a big gap.

It can be regarded as a three-win situation, and everyone has a bright future.

Because once Chelsea's offensive ability declines due to the departure of the two wingers, and if it fails to achieve ideal results at the end of the season, it will all be liquidated!

"Daily Mail" also said: "Chelsea sold two important players in a short period of time. This Chelsea fan may be able to tolerate it."

Are these two on the same level?

No matter how strong Oscar is, he is not the absolute main force in the current Chelsea team.

So Pan Yi didn't say anything else, just wished him good luck and then hung up the phone.

Only this time, he was politely declined.

"In the second half of the season, Chelsea will have to compete on three fronts in the league, FA Cup and Champions League. Is the current number of first-team players really enough?"

Subsequently, in the summer of 2009, Podolski, who was guaranteed a starting position for the World Cup in South Africa, returned to his old club Cologne for 10 million euros.

Then the next step is to fully promote Gnabry's transfer.

There were not many words of persuasion, and there was no need for Pan Yi to introduce the grand plan to the players. Gnabry was ready to leave with Pan Yi.

Therefore, the professor did the next best thing and asked to rent and then buy Chelsea’s backup goalkeeper Petr Cech!

This is also due to the fact that Szczesny, the main goalkeeper of Arsenal, won the Premier League Golden Glove award with 16 clean sheets last season, but his condition is very unstable this season.

"But they are also concerned about why Pan Yi hasn't taken action yet? Why doesn't Chelsea make timely additional signings?"

Let’s not mention the tactical ability. The key is Pan Yi’s ability to train young players, which is enough to make all young players flock to him.

During the lunch break, Podolski stared at Gnabry for a long time.

Against West Ham United it was one pass and one shot, while against Southampton it was three shots and one pass.

To sum up, after half the battle, the Premier League standings are as follows:

With his current competitive status, staying at Chelsea as Courtois's substitute is indeed a bit humiliating.

Chelsea 55 points.

He seems to have been unable to adapt to the wealthy club. In addition, the club has introduced many big-name stars such as Miroslav Klose, Toni, and Franck Ribery. Podolski has been firmly placed on the club's bench.

He is still doing his usual routine of making little monsters! This is how he can demonstrate his abilities.

Looking back now, Podolski thinks that if he could have been guided by a coach like Pan Yi when he was young, he might have achieved much greater achievements than he does now...

This news directly detonated the football world.

Besides, there are so many young players in the world, and Pan Yi would choose him. For this, Gnabry was excited and proud in his heart.

Van Gaal has become more proficient in using the big circle tactics. Especially after defeating his arch-rival Liverpool 3-0 in the 16th round, he has made great progress and has now quietly climbed to the third position in the standings.

No matter who it is, it seems that it is not difficult to make the same choice in the face of such disparate conditions.

Now that he has decided to go to Chelsea, Gnabry has acted very simply.

"Are you in love?"

This was a temporary idea after playing against Southampton.

How did Pan Yi fall in love with such a young player?

At that moment, the professor felt that he had made a mistake. Could it be that this German boy was a real diamond because he had given him too few opportunities?

After all, when Pan Yi really didn't make a mistake, he would definitely kick out the players he liked.

…

Italian journalist Romano, who has become increasingly popular in recent years, also sent out the message "Here we go!" on his social media.

After Schürrle and Oscar left, Pan Yi still needed immediate combat capability at the winger position.

This is actually for Gnabry’s own good!

After several offer negotiations, Wenger accepted Chelsea's £5 million offer for Gnabry.

Stoke City 25 points.

"Pan Yi?" Podolski didn't react for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly widened, "Chelsea coach Pan Yi? What do you mean..."

But Podolski's performance at Bayern was not good.

After receiving this call, Gnabry's condition seemed to be extra good in the following training.

William is at the peak of his career at this time, and he is still of great help to Chelsea.

The message he gave was more direct, accurate and straightforward:

He is far ahead in the Premier League in terms of the number of passes made by the goalkeeper and the number of attacks initiated by the goalkeeper.

Gnabry looked around and saw no one else, so he happily whispered to Podolsky, "Pan Yi called me."

Passes, Matic 397 times;

Key passes, Hazard 21 times;

Interceptions, Kanter 20 times;

Blocked, Terry 9 times;

Cahill made 57 clearances;

…

However, during the negotiation process, Wenger still made an additional request to Pan Yi.

You know, Liverpool striker Suarez, who dominated the Premier League last season, earned more than 80 million.

And where did this Shanghai SIPG team come from and be able to offer such a high price?

Who is this SIPG and this "programmer"?

Therefore, there is still a lot of controversy in the English media about this transaction.

Does Chelsea really want to let such a player go?

He is also interpreting Pan Yi's new requirements for the goalkeeper position, which is not only to guard the goalkeeper well, but also to become the first starting point of the offense!——

In addition to praising Chelsea's half-time championship, the media also focused a lot of attention on Oscar.

However, Bordowski's own situation at Arsenal has been relatively poor recently. He is basically a substitute in games. He is also looking for a transfer or loan to get more game time.

For Chelsea fans, of course they are somewhat reluctant to leave Oscar;

After all, in the past two and a half years, Oscar has been conscientious and diligent on the court. He is a good player that fits the image of the Blues.

Someone also said jokingly: "Abramovich originally invited Pan Yi to help him spend money, but what he didn't expect was that Pan Yi instantly made him more than 100 million! At least in terms of spending money,

Pan Yi doesn’t seem to be qualified!”

In front of him, there are two national teams, Szczesny and Ospina. Where will it be his turn?

Everyone was shocked.
