Duff, who came on as a substitute at the last moment, scored the icing on the cake. In the end, Chelsea swept the South American Copa Libertadores champion Caldas 4-0 at the Yokohama Stadium.
"The 13th Toyota Cup has completely become history. Among the 25 Toyota Cups, the European teams led the South American teams 13 to 12 times."
After the game, Robben was awarded the Player of the Match award.
The organizers rewarded Robben with a Toyota car.
Broken stuff.
How can Robben be in the mood for that crap now? This injury made Robben very upset.
Robben is at his best right now.
At Chelsea, with the support of Su Yun, he feels like a fish in water. He has only been at Chelsea for just six months, but he is already considered by many British media to be the best left winger in the Premier League.
I didn't expect to be injured.
Of course it's not a serious injury.
It's just a small injury.
But you also need to take six or seven weeks of rest.
So I felt very unhappy.
After the game, Chelsea took a short rest and immediately returned to London.
tired.
In addition to being happy to win the Toyota Cup, all Chelsea players felt tired. After playing the Champions League game on the 8th, they flew to Japan on the 9th. They played the Toyota Cup on the 12th and flew back again in the early morning of the 13th.
to England.
This has turned the whole earth around.
Everyone is tired.
All the players were fast asleep on the plane.
"Su, that's almost it."
Only Su Yun hasn't slept yet. It's not that Su Yun doesn't want to sleep. It's because Kenyon is next to him. Because Kenyon stayed until the end and left with the Chelsea players. And Abramovich, Arneson, and Abramovich's personal
Scout Wessel all left early.
Kenyon was sincere.
His work at Chelsea has started very well. During this year, he has continuously attracted various sponsors to Chelsea. Although Chelsea cannot compare with Manchester United commercially, it has begun to catch up with Arsenal.
He is even confident that he can surpass traditional Premier League teams such as Arsenal and Liverpool within two years.
But he is very tired.
Because he knew that his ability to achieve such business results was closely related to Su Yun's achievements.
But now he is involved in the conflict between Arnesen and Su Yun. Of course, on the other hand, it is the game between Abu and Su Yun.
He hopes to calm down this game.
"Peter, let me tell you the truth. I actually didn't do anything. I didn't do anything about Arnesen."
What Su Yun said is true.
After the quarrel with Arneson, Su Yun did not add fuel to the fire. Su Yun just remained silent, and then there was anger on his face. But this was enough for Arneson.
Su Yun didn't do anything behind the scenes.
Let them play against Arnesen.
Of course, they did not welcome Arnesen and boycotted him, and Su Yun was happy to see this happen.
Kenyon smiled bitterly.
No manipulation?
Kenyon believed that Su Yun was not directly involved in the boycott of Arnesen, but in fact the effect was the same. Because Su Yun's silence was conniving in nature. Who doesn't know that Chelsea's current coaching staff, from top to bottom
Everything below is related to Su Yun.
Many coaches from Vialli's time either joined Su Yun's coaching staff or left Chelsea.
Therefore, their boycott of Arnesen is actually to protect their own interests, because they and Su Yun have always had a community of interests.
One glory and all glory.
Chelsea's coaching staff now have very high incomes, which has a lot to do with Su Yun's good results and Su Yun's hard work.
They didn't think Arnesen would lead them well in the future.
"Su, things are already like this. Why do we need to quarrel with each other? I know you have a lot of dissatisfaction, but you should know one thing. Chelsea is not a joint-stock club like Manchester United. Ferguson can have trouble with their major shareholders.
Look, although the leadership position is under some threat, it’s not a big problem.”
Kenyon spoke to Su Yun seriously.
"But Chelsea is different. Chelsea has only one owner and he can decide everything."
Su Yun shrugged.
Su Yun understood what Kenyon meant. Today's football is commercial football, capital football. Look at Aston Villa and Newcastle, their owners can change coaches at will.
The fans' voices are useless.
This is the power of capital.
And Abramovich is richer than them, and Chelsea is completely his team.
"Su, you have very good results. You are the best coach in the history of Chelsea and have a high influence among Chelsea club and fans. But if you really keep fighting like this, Mr. Abramovich will really do anything.
"
"Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to take a step back?"
Kenyon stayed to mediate the conflict between the two parties.
Su Yun smiled.
Su Yun never thought about actually confronting Abu. After all, he was a migrant worker. Although his grades were very good, he was still at a disadvantage when facing Abu.
Su Yun just wanted to show Abu and Arnesen that he was not a soft persimmon.
Squeeze it if you want.
Su Yun understood that enough was enough.
After all, Abramovich is the boss no matter what. He is the real boss of Chelsea. If he ignores it and wants to fire Su Yun, what else can Su Yun do?
A direct player of Su Yun?
Abramovich has plenty of money. If Su Yun encourages his players to leave, then Abramovich has plenty of money to buy other players.
Su Yun’s influence among Chelsea fans?
In the eyes of a boss like Abramovich, fans are nothing. Look at the boss of Newcastle and say that the fans are a bunch of fools. But it does not affect him from continuing to be the boss of Newcastle.
And the owner of Aston Villa.
He publicly stated that he is only responsible to his own board members. But because of his financial strength, no one can threaten his position.
Abramovich is much stronger than them at Chelsea.
They have other major shareholders, but there is only one owner at Chelsea, Abramovich.
Su Yun is not willing to leave the team he has built.
Therefore, he was just showing his strength and influence to Abramovich and Arnesen, and warned them not to push people too hard.
Su Yun was also looking for a step.
Now that Kenyon is here, Su Yun also hopes to come down.
"Peter, am I willing to withdraw? Where are they?"
After hearing Su Yun's words, Kenyon showed a long-lost smile.
Game?
The game is actually not a fight to the death, but both sides are finding an acceptable balance point. Kenyon no longer expects Abramovich, Arneson, and Su Yun to get along well with each other.
He just hopes that a few people can reach a delicate balance.
Abramovich is concerned about Su Yun's strength and influence at Chelsea, so he should not make any drastic moves. Su Yun, on the other hand, can also avoid a head-on conflict with Arnesen for the sake of the Chelsea he built.
This is what Kenyon hopes.
Everyone has their own concerns, and then continue walking together.
Isn’t that what gaming is?
Everyone has concerns.
As long as a delicate balance can be maintained, Kenyon believes there will be no major turmoil at Chelsea.
"Su, there's no problem with this. Let's all take a step back. I believe there won't be any big problems. I've also heard about what happened this time, and I believe there will never be such a problem in the future."
Su Yun slowly closed his eyes.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Peter, that is you, I will not give face to anyone else. But I still hope you can promise me that this will never happen next time. And I have already given in a lot, the scouting system.
Nathan is in charge of everything. But in the transfer department, I don’t want to see him getting involved.”
In fact, these are all connected.
The scouting system and the transfer department are actually similar to one department. Their rights overlap with each other.
And they must rely on each other. I have never heard that the transfer department can do without the help of the scouting system. In the end, the scouting system still has to rely on the transfer department.
But Su Yun could not continue to give in.
As the head coach, Su Yun cannot give up the right to transfer. If the transfer department is also controlled by Arnesen, Su Yun will never give in.
This is the bottom line.
Kenyon nodded.
"Okay, Sue. Trust me."
…………
After just returning to England, Su Yun didn't have any time to rest.
Because on December 14th, the European Golden Globe Awards ceremony will be held in France.
Su Yun had no time to waste at all.
Su Yun, Kenyon, and Williams flew to Paris, France. As the coach who led Chelsea to win the Champions League, Su Yun is currently the coach with the highest reputation as the best coach in Europe.
And Williams once again entered the top three for the Ballon d'Or.
There are many doubts about this.
Because Williams suddenly became a favorite thanks to his goal in the final. Chelsea has many players in the top 30 list.
Including Eto'o, Joaquin, Lampard, Rosicky, Ashley Cole, Terry and so on.
It is the club with the most nominations for this year’s Ballon d’Or.
Williams was able to enter the top three positions because of the goal in the final. Otherwise, after Williams was transformed into a defensive midfielder by Su Yun, Williams should basically be insulated from this kind of personal award.
But it's not impossible.
Su Yun thinks so.
There were too many upsets last season. No player has an absolute advantage. The top three players this time are Milan's Shevchenko, Barcelona's Ronaldinho, and Chelsea's Williams.
Shevchenko is the main forward of the giant Milan and was Milan's best shooter last season. But he only had one honor last season. That was the Serie A championship.
Ronaldinho mesmerized all the fans with his magical feet.
Ronaldinho is a magician. He is very popular among fans.
Williams is the midfielder.
As a defensive midfielder, it is difficult to stand in this position. But who allowed him to score a decisive goal in the most important Champions League final.
Therefore, the English media boasted and boasted, and relied on the reputation accumulated over the years to stand here again.
None of the three have any obvious advantages.
Williams has the Champions League, but he is a defensive midfielder. Shevchenko has been very stable in recent seasons, but only won the Serie A last season. Ronaldinho had a magical performance, but Barcelona was No grains were harvested.
They all have strengths, but they all have weaknesses.
Therefore, no one knows who will win the Golden Globe Award this time.
