Chapter 450: You must drop the chain when it comes to dropping the chain.

The dust of this season's Premier League has settled, and the final rankings have come out.

The champion, of course, is Chelsea. They remained undefeated with 31 wins and 7 draws, and the points finally reached exactly 100 points! Although it is not as good as the 106 points won last season, it can still rank second in history!

At the same time, this is also the second consecutive season that Chelsea has remained unbeaten, with a total of 76 unbeaten games!

The longest unbeaten record in the five major leagues has been raised to an unattainable height by Pan Yi...

Runner-up, Leicester City, with 23 wins, 12 draws, and 3 losses, totaling 81 points. This dark horse finally went dark and won the best ranking in team history. It was also the first time in history that it could participate in the Champions League!

Third place, Manchester City, with 20 wins, 11 draws and 7 losses, with 71 points. Manchester City's performance this season was not ideal, but they still secured a spot in the Champions League at the last minute.

Fourth place is, of course, Arsenal. With 19 wins, 13 draws and 6 losses, they accumulated 70 points. Wenger once again led the team to enter the Champions League and successfully competed for the fourth place!

Fifth place, Tottenham, with 19 wins, 9 draws, 10 losses and 66 points. This youth team was ultimately affected by the loss of Kane and fell behind in the sprint stage of the season. It will only be able to compete in the Europa League next season.

Sixth place, Manchester United, also has 19 wins, 9 draws, 10 losses and 66 points. Manchester United lost the qualification for the Champions League under the leadership of Louis van Gaal. It is said that Manchester United is not planning to renew the contract with Van Gaal, but has set its sights on being idle at home.

Mourinho.

The teams ranked further behind are Southampton, West Ham United, Liverpool and Stoke City.

At the bottom of the standings, Aston Villa has been relegated early, with a record of 3 wins, 8 draws and 27 losses.

Perhaps the only thing they are proud of this season is that they once tied with the league champion Chelsea 0:0 at their home court...

The other two relegated teams are Norwich City and Newcastle United.

Needless to say, Norwich City is a famous team that has been promoted to the Premier League. Before the oil dad took over, Newcastle United was indeed a team that fought for relegation every year and was squeezed into the middle of the pack at most...

Then there are the individual awards officially judged by the Premier League.

The best coach among them is the least suspenseful.

Although Ranieri led the civilian team Leicester City to have a fantastic season, it was still slightly inferior to Chelsea who remained undefeated and won the Premier League championship with a dominant performance.

Therefore, Pan Yi won the Premier League Best Coach Award!

In terms of best player, the Premier League official also awarded this award to Leicester City's Algerian winger Mahrez out of balance considerations!

However, this is actually partly because Chelsea has so many players who have performed well this season!

Lukaku, Harry Kane, Hazard, B seat, Kante, Van Dijk, Courtois...

This more or less also leads to a bit of splitting of votes when selecting the best player.

And the polo king did have the most brilliant performance of his career in Leicester City. To be honest, it is not a big problem to win this award.

This is a bit like the 2014 World Cup. Although the German team won the championship in the end, many players in their team performed very well, which resulted in a less favorable position in the selection of the best player.

On the data list that does not require selection, Chelsea players undoubtedly dominate the list.

On the scorer list, Lukaku also won the Premier League Golden Boot with 29 goals!

This number is one less than last season, partly because his strike partner Harry Kane also scored 25 goals!

Harry Kane also won the Silver Boot.

Ranked third is Leicester City's leading striker Vardy. His number of goals is 24, only one less than Kane.

Fourth is Manchester City's main center Aguero, who scored 23 goals.

Fifth is Leicester City’s Mahrez, who also scored 17 goals.

At the same time, the polo king is also the only one in the top five who does not play at the center position. This also shows how good he feels in shooting even if he is on the wing this season!

Next are some old acquaintances from the Premier League, Giroud, Ighalo, Defoe, Sanchez, etc.

In the assists list, Hazard also retains the title of assists king.

His total assists this season is 20!

This is a very exaggerated number, 5 more than the 15 last season.

This has a lot to do with Pan Yi's formation this season. In many cases, Hazard, who serves as an attacking midfielder, can pass the ball forward more comfortably;

The high efficiency of the two top shooters Lukaku and Harry Kane in front also ensured that Hazard could steadily make the cake and deliver it to their mouths.

Ranked second is Tottenham's Eriksen, who has 13 assists.

Then there is Payet of West Ham United, Tadic of Southampton, David Silva of Manchester City, etc.

Of course, there is also Leicester City's Mahrez, who also sent 10 assists.

A relatively eye-catching double-double of 17+10, coupled with his carrying performance in a civilian team like Leicester City, is what gave Mahrez the confidence to win the best player.

There are also some statistics that do not have titles such as "Golden Boot" and "Assist King".

But if there is, most of them belong to Chelsea.

For example, the "King of Tackles" is Kante.

He made 176 successful tackles in a season, which was higher than the second place's 115... more than an order of magnitude!

The "King of Interceptions" is also Kanter.

He ranks first with 160 steals, and second is Arsenal player Koscielny, who is a central defender.

This shows how important Kante, the "ball-grabbing machine" is to Chelsea.

Among the best teams officially selected by the Premier League, it was divided between Chelsea and Leicester City.

The best lineup is still the same, with Lukaku, Harry Kane and Vardy as the forwards.

Obviously, in order to prevent any of these three forwards from being selected, we can only form a three-forward formation.

The three midfielders are Hazard, Kante and Mahrez.

The defenders from left to right are Marcos Alonso, Van Dijk, Morgan and Azpilicueta.

Goalkeeper: Courtois.

The selection of Leicester City captain Morgan is not very unexpected.

After the 32-year-old left Nottingham Forest and came to Leicester City, the Nottingham Forest manager accused him of "making a retrograde choice";

But this season, he quickly established his position as the leader of the defense and ensured that the team's defense was stable and did not concede goals, which is a reassuring anchor.

More importantly, he is a team leader and a good role model for the players.

It is also under his leadership that Leicester City has maintained a good locker room atmosphere and achieved the best results in history.

In terms of the best young player, Harry Kane also defeated his teammates Ake, Mbappe, Abraham, Goretzka and others to win this award!

Although Ake and Mbappe have performed very well this season, especially Mbappe has scored 13 goals in limited playing time;

But after all, Harry Kane firmly occupies the main forward position in Pan Yi's system, and he also performed very steadily, contributing 25 goals.

So, after losing to seat B in the selection last season, Harry Kane finally won this award!

more importantly……

He has already won five championships in one season with Chelsea, and is still heading towards his sixth or seventh championship...

(Harry Kane in a parallel world cries)

"This is a critical moment, we can't let the chain slip!"

On May 20, which was an ordinary day in most cases, Pan Yi was seriously admonishing his players in the pre-match tactical meeting.

Why is it said “in most cases”?

Just because in the distant Dragon Kingdom, today may be another "Valentine's Day".

As for why today is Valentine’s Day, it’s just because of the homophony in Chinese.

As we all know, in the Dragon Kingdom, any day can become Valentine's Day.

Valentine's Day on February 14th, White Day on March 14th, Dragon Kingdom Valentine's Day on Chinese Valentine's Day, Women's Day on March 8th, 520... plus a girl's birthday.

Of course, if a girl wants to, 11.11, 12.12, 6.18... can all be Valentine's Day.

In short, as long as you can’t imagine it, there is no Valentine’s Day that you can’t celebrate.

Pan Yi could only be lucky that his girlfriend was Italian. Apart from celebrating the annual Valentine's Day, there weren't too many days to worry about.

Because of this, he can also concentrate on his work and prepare his players for the upcoming FA Cup final.

Now that the five crowns are in hand, there are only two finals left this season. Of course, Pan Yi wants to remind Chelsea players to be more cautious and not to relax.

There are some negative cases here.

One very typical example is Dortmund from the Bundesliga.

Why haven't they won a championship for many years? Sometimes it's not because their opponents are too strong, but because they themselves don't live up to expectations.

Fans often joke: "Dortmund never loses its footing."
