The plane pierced through thick clouds, slowly descending towards London Airport.

Tuchel stood at the pickup area, gazing up at the dark, heavy clouds.

He clenched his fists involuntarily, his blood boiling.

"The beginning of a dream!"

"The ultimate stage for clashes between famous coaches!"

"Attack is the best form of defense."

"Li doesn't need to drop back so far; we need to fully unleash his top-tier passing, control, and dribbling abilities."

"But all forwards must be capable of retreating significantly! Stretch the defensive line, create false attacking directions, and provide Li with space to cut in and attack!"

Dino nodded perfunctorily. "Right, right!"

Over the past few days, he had gradually become accustomed to Tuchel's tendency to frequently change his mind and overturn tactical decisions made just minutes before.

"Boss, you're still wearing a Borussia Dortmund hat."

"This is the Premier League; you should change that title and call me Boss!"

"Okay, Boss!"

"Forget it, no need to change; there can't be a real Boss at Chelsea!"

A moment later.

The two men got into a van emblazoned with the Chelsea logo.

Ms. Skaia smiled. "Mr. Tuchel, do you have any other small requests?"

Tuchel didn't hesitate. "Get rid of all the staff on social media who strike poses and fabricate false behind-the-scenes stories about the team, especially in the medical department!"

"I don't want any 'cheerleaders'; those idiots only disrupt the stability of the locker room."

Ms. Skaia was taken aback but smiled and said, "Chelsea will try its best to accommodate you."

Chelsea had a female team doctor who had a heated conflict with the coaching staff during a match due to a certain incident.

Then, the female doctor fabricated false information online, sued the English Football Association (FA), claimed to have suffered gender discrimination, and demanded millions of pounds in compensation.

Public opinion online overwhelmingly condemned the coaching staff.

The FA sent lip-reading experts, medical experts, psychological experts, and other staff to collect evidence, ultimately concluding that the female doctor had not suffered gender discrimination and that the coaching staff had not even used abusive language.

Then.

Public opinion online reversed again!

The female doctor's several misdiagnoses were also exposed, and she had also influenced the club's starting lineup changes through her injury reports.

In the end.

Chelsea was fed up and gave her a substantial severance package to get rid of her.

The female doctor refused to give up and continues to hype the issue online to this day.

An hour later.

Stamford Bridge.

Abramovich frowned, sizing up Tuchel and Dino.

"Let's talk about the plans for the new season."

Dino took a tactical plan in a purple folder from his backpack.

Tuchel began, "Control is the best defense!"

"Li should play a more in-depth role in midfield; I will give him unlimited control over attacking and defensive resources."

"..."

Dino quickly stuffed the purple folder back and pulled out a blue folder, handing it to Abramovich.

Fortunately, he had prepared in advance.

Abramovich casually flipped through it, not understanding much.

"Keep it simple."

"We must focus on ball possession!"

"Chelsea's forwards are very versatile; they don't need to run and rotate like crazy as they did at Mainz and Borussia Dortmund. The inside forwards should pressure the opponent's full-backs, the center forward should drop back frequently, and provide Li with ample space to cut in and attack."

"In most cases, the center-backs must withstand the opponent's pressing, push forward to defuse the opponent's front-court pressure, and pass the ball to Li."

"The midfielders must maintain mobility, especially between the opponent's lines, to assist Li's playmaking."

"The goalkeeper must..."

Tuchel spoke eloquently.

Abramovich became more and more confused. How could it be so much more complicated than Ranieri and Hiddink's tactics?

He raised his hand to interrupt. "So, what is Li supposed to do?"

Tuchel said decisively, "Li doesn't need to do too much. He is the soul and foundation of the team; he only needs to..."

Clap, clap, clap!

Abramovich clapped to interrupt!

"Excellent! This tactical plan is perfect!"

The meeting ended.

Tuchel and Dino, accompanied by staff, headed to the club restaurant.

"Boss, are we going to transform Chelsea into a possession-based team?"

"A deep, compact defensive line is the best defense."

Dino's face darkened: Can you please stop changing your mind?

"Boss, you need to talk to the players during the Asian tour."

"No need; I don't need players who are out of my control. Li is the only exception."

Soon.

Chelsea officially announced: "Tuchel becomes the club's new head coach."

Although this news did not trend on social media, it sparked discussion among many fans.

-

[Tuchel's control freak! Won't Chelsea's locker room be in turmoil next season? What if another team doctor incident breaks out...]

-

[This guy finally doesn't have to eat Klopp's "leftovers" anymore.]

-

[I bet he'll have a lot of conflicts with Li Mingdeng!]

-

[No way, for Li Kang, the freedom that the coaching staff gives to Weigl is enough.]

-

[Do you want the treble, or control? Just suck it up.]

-

[Don't worry, they are "Cthulhu lineage" brothers; they will only become stronger when they join forces, and they will eliminate on-the-spot command conflicts before each game.]

-

[What are you speculating about? Li Mingdeng hasn't officially joined Chelsea yet!]

-

[Fun fact: Chelsea spent 500,000 euros to buy the assistant coach, Dino, from Bayer Leverkusen.]

The summer transfer window for Europe's top five leagues is in full swing.

Transfer news is dominating the online trends.

Everton striker Romelu Lukaku, 75 million pounds transfer fee + 15 million pounds floating clause, joins Manchester United!

Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, 34 million pounds transfer fee, joins Liverpool.

Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci, 40 million euros, joins AC Milan.

In this environment of lavish spending, some clubs are accidentally making money.

Chelsea sold several players and accidentally earned: 150 million pounds.

John Terry leaves Stamford Bridge and joins Aston Villa on a free transfer.

Cobham Training Centre, meeting room.

Enrique has called a meeting with the coaching staff.

"Arsenal faces some difficult challenges next, which is also a good opportunity to build fan confidence!"

"Club World Cup!"

"European Super Cup!"

"Community Shield!"

"Let us continue our undefeated legend and create another treble!"

"The reborn Gunners will shock Europe again! We need to start reforming in several areas!"

Boulde was full of confidence, eager to speak.

That's right, he was the "unsung hero" of the undefeated treble-winning season.

Enrique's eyes swept across the pious faces of the crowd, and he nodded with satisfaction.

"So... first, we need to improve Arsenal's set-piece tactics..."

North London.

A group of workers were going in and out of the yard.

A junior assistant was directing the moving company.

Li Kang sat in the car, watching a movie on his tablet.

He had signed the contract with Chelsea and would sign another "prop" contract at the joining ceremony later.

Next stop, Stamford Bridge.
