My beloved Chelsea, what has happened to you in recent years? Back in the day, with captain Terry, midfielder Lampard, defensive midfielder Makelele, and goalkeeper Cech, the team was glorious and honorable. Do you remember the 2012 Champions League? The team was on the brink of defeat, but every player never spoke of giving up. Instead, they silently stood their ground, guarding their duties. When Drogba's punch sealed the victory, all the grievances and anger were vented. Even entering the penalty shootout, Bayern Munich fans were already anxious, and their players knew they were doomed because Chelsea was their nemesis on the road to victory. With everyone united, they fought to the end and lifted the trophy. And it didn't end there. In the following 2014 season, they won the league title, and in the 2021 season, they lifted the Champions League trophy again.
Now, Chelsea really lacks a leader, whether it's Terry in 2006 or Lampard in 2012, their leadership qualities were powerful. Facing the current Manchester City, it should have been the best chance to achieve results. With City stretched thin across multiple fronts, facing an exhausted opponent, it should have been easy to achieve success. The FA Cup should have been the only trophy Chelsea could have won this season, but they didn't seize it. Despite spending so much money to strengthen the squad, they didn't get value for money, nor did they show the side of the team that fans expect. It's time for some self-reflection and introspection. Let's aim to win a trophy next season. |
