But there is nothing wrong with his right foot. Although it is not as sharp as his left foot, compared to other left-footed players in football, Duff's right foot is not bad at all. He scored a goal when he was at Blackburn Rovers.
, most of the goals were scored with the right foot.
At Blackburn, Duff often used his left foot to dodge people in the penalty area, and then shot with his right foot. The balance between his left and right feet is a major feature of Duff.
So Duff faced LeBoeuf and dunked his left foot. After swaying at an angle, he shot directly with his right foot.
Duff's speed from receiving the ball to passing Melchiot and past Leboeuf was too fast. He didn't give Chelsea any chance to prepare.
And Duff's last shot was even more wonderful.
The ball just stuck to the ground and headed towards the near corner.
Although De Gouye made a move, it was already very late. He was simply unable to block Duff's goal.
"goooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!! Duff! Damien Duff!"
"The game only started for three minutes, only three minutes. Sunderland led Chelsea 1-0 in the away game with Duff's wonderful performance. It was too fast. In the blink of an eye, Sunderland was already 1-0.
Ahead of Chelsea."
"Damien Duff, a young player who is only 20 years old, has given us such a wonderful performance. He moved to Sunderland from relegated Blackburn this season for 7.6 million pounds.
, Sunderland really picked up a treasure. With the series of performances just now, even if it costs 10 million pounds, they can't get it."
Martin Taylor spoke highly of Duff.
In recent times, there have been an endless stream of powerful wing players in the Premier League.
Including Giggs of Manchester United, Kewell of Leeds United, Overmars of Arsenal, Boboski of Sunderland, etc.
Seeing Duff's performance now reminds Martin Taylor of these famous players.
"Ten million pounds. Judging from the Sunderland built by Su Yun, Su Yun's ambitions are obviously very big. If Sunderland performs well this season, then Duff's worth may more than double. Take a look.
Sunderland used to walk on one leg, and the wing attacks basically relied on Boboski on the right. Now with Duff, Sunderland's offensive power will be greatly improved. I am looking forward to Sunderland
Lan’s performance this season.”
Andy Gray also echoed Martin Taylor.
A few years ago, they would not have dared to say 10 million pounds.
After all, a few years ago, Shearer scored more than 30 goals in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons, and when he finally moved to Newcastle, it was only 15 million pounds. But it is different recently.
The value of players has been rising steadily recently.
Ten million pounds is already a small amount.
"Well, what happened?"
Martin Taylor, who had just enthusiastically praised Duff, said in surprise.
Because after Duff scored, the Sunderland players who gathered to celebrate did not continue to celebrate. Instead, they stopped celebrating and stood there looking at the area near the Chelsea penalty area. The Chelsea players had already ran to the area near the penalty area.
It turned out that Melchiot, who had just been knocked down by Duff, was lying on the ground and could not get up.
Chelsea's team doctor has already entered the stadium.
"What's going on? Let's see the replay."
When Duff spiked the ball for the second time, Melchiot also stopped and turned. Duff was intentional, but Melchiot was passive. So at that moment Melchiot's
The supporting leg could not turn around. From the picture, you can clearly see that Melchiot's supporting leg could not be turned around, so it was twisted directly.
Melchiot never stood up again after that.
"This kind of injury can be big or small. If it is a minor injury, a week and a half is enough. But if there are many problems, then you may need to rest for several months, even half a year, or even a season.
I hope nothing big happens."
Melchiot fell, causing the Sunderland players' celebration to come to an abrupt end.
Although a goal was scored, one cannot continue to celebrate while watching an opponent's player get injured.
Vialli was angry on the sidelines.
Losing the ball is enough to bother him.
Now Melchiot is injured, which makes him even more worried.
Melchiot is a player he is very optimistic about. He is young and energetic, but not rash at all. He is young but very experienced. He is good at defense and can go up when attacking.
Spanish international Ferrer, who was bought last season, doesn't have a good positional sense.
It's not that he is bad.
But in Vialli's opinion, Ferrer is not suitable for the Premier League. He has stayed in La Liga for a long time and is not suitable for the open and closed style of the Premier League. The wing play style in the Premier League is somewhat different from that in continental Europe. Ferrer is in La Liga
Mainly to defend wide players who are on the ground.
But the Premier League is different.
The wing players in the Premier League are not as strong as the players in La Liga. But they are fast.
Direct long passes to find the wing, and the wing players either take the ball and use speed to pass, or pass directly. This makes Ferrer very uncomfortable.
Therefore, Ferrer's performance at Chelsea has always been poor. Vialli was very dissatisfied.
What about the main right back of the Spanish national team?
If you are not strong enough, you will be eliminated.
Ferrer's position in the Spanish national team was also replaced by Salgado.
It was because he was dissatisfied with Ferrer's performance that Vialli brought in Melchiot.
Unexpectedly, I got injured in the first game.
He waited anxiously for the team doctor's answer.
"how's it going."
Vialli looked at Melchiot being carried out and asked the team doctor.
Chelsea's team doctor looked solemn.
He shook his head at Vialli. Then he said to Vialli in a very low voice: "It's very serious. I initially estimate that it will definitely be difficult to play within three or four months. Of course, further inspections are needed. But if
If it's more serious than I expected, it could take half a year or even a month."
"Three or four months? Half a year?"
Vialli lost his composure.
If you can't play for half a year, doesn't that mean the season is wasted?
It's August now. It will be February in half a year. And after half a year's rest, it still takes a long time to find the state. Then the season has passed.
Vialli's face was a little livid.
Ever since Melchiot was injured, TV cameras have been capturing Vialli. Seeing Vialli's livid face, many people immediately knew that Melchiot's injury situation was not very optimistic.
"Melchiot is really unlucky. Today is his first official match for Chelsea. Unexpectedly, he was taken out on a stretcher after only playing three minutes."
Martin Taylor shook his head.
The so-called unlucky should refer to times like this.
"Yes. You can see from Vialli's expression that Melchiot's injury is serious."
Su Yun was also stunned on the sidelines.
Melchiot must be so unlucky.
Is this the end?
Everyone was stunned.
There are many players who get injured and get off the field after the start. After all, anything can happen in the game. But it is really rare for a new player to get injured and get off the field after just three minutes of playing for a new team.
Melchiot didn't even have time to feel the pain.
He lay on the stretcher and looked at Stamford Bridge with great nostalgia.
Melchiot had great ambitions when he came to Chelsea from the Eredivisie. Although Ajax is a Dutch giant, the Eredivisie has completely declined since the Bosman Act. Even Ajax
A top giant like Sri Lanka can only be reduced to a player export club.
Regardless of history, Chelsea is not as good as Ajax at all, but its current attractiveness completely exceeds that of Ajax.
He wants to conquer the Premier League.
What a pity?
three minutes?
He only spent three minutes in the official game at Stamford Bridge and had to be carried off on a stretcher.
And seeing the team doctor's face, Melchiot knew that his injury must be serious.
Melchiot was very sad.
Just three minutes.
His first appearance at Chelsea ended like this.
What a miserable Melchiot.
…………
Soon Via replaced Melchiot with Ferrer.
It was only the fifth minute of the game and Vialli could only be forced to make a substitution.
"Ferrer came on. Chelsea could only make passive substitutions. Chelsea's luck is really bad. Melchiot's injury caught people off guard."
Melchiotsu Yun is not familiar with it.
Su Yun's information can only be known by understanding the Eredivisie league. But Ferrer is different.
Suyun is very familiar with Ferrer.
This is a player who has good foot skills and good defense at his feet. But he is not suitable for the fast-paced, wide-open and wide-open games.
With a one-goal lead, Su Yun has more options.
After Chelsea replaced Ferrer, Vialli kept making gestures on the sidelines to let Chelsea attack.
Being behind by a goal at home is unacceptable for a strong team like Chelsea. It is also impossible for Chelsea fans to accept it.
Vialli therefore had only one option.
Just attack.
He cannot lose to Sunderland at home.
Since Vialli couldn't play on the wing, he chose to play in the middle. He had to pass the ball constantly at the front of the penalty area and use the pass to create an opening. He still wanted to hit Lucas Neal's shortcomings of recklessness. It's a pity that after
After one season, Lucas Neal has more experience than last season, and there are not many rash situations.
In addition, Southgate's strength far exceeds that of Melville.
Southgate can always help Lucas Neal block the space. Therefore, Chelsea's offense is always unable to penetrate.
And because there are fewer wingers, Chelsea's offense is concentrated in the center.
Let there be more and more people in the middle lane.
There was no way to touch the ball at all. Wise, Poyet, Zola and Sunderland's Williams, Robbie Savage and others were in the small space, and there was no chance at all.
Any space for you to pass the ball.
On the contrary, it is getting more and more crowded.
The game was a little boring for a while.
But Su Yun on the sidelines likes this kind of scene. Only when everyone is concentrated in the middle can he play on the wing.
Su Yun suddenly felt that he could win this game easily...)
