http://www.chelseafc.com/article.asp?id=193227 It's not finished yet Thursday, Mar 25, 2004 The cat-and-mouse game played out on the pitch continued in the post- match press conference last night with both managers trying to gain the upper hand going into the second leg of this Champions League quarter-final tie. While praising Arsenal this season, Claudio Ranieri was quick to point out the Blues excellent away form where, in the Champions League, we are undefeated away and yet to concede a goal. “Arsenal this season is in another world. We are behind them. They score a lot of goals in every competition. Maybe they can score at Highbury but Chelsea away is strong and I believe it is not finished yet. They are the hypothetical champions in the League, maybe also in the Champions League , but first they must kill us.” Arsene Wenger is fully aware that his side, having scored a vital away goal, will now go into the second game as favourites. “My main worry is not whether we are favourites to go through,” he said. “My main worry is to win the game at Highbury and we know we can do that. To go for a 0-0 is a dangerous game. We have a good opportunity to go through. “We have the psychological edge certainly. You could see at 1-1 it was a big blow for Chelsea because in the last 20 minutes I always felt that there was enough room for us to win the game. To come back to 1-1 after having been 1-0 down is a good result for us.” Reflecting on the quarter-final first leg, the Frenchman admitted he expected the Blues to play in a more defensive fashion than we had in this season’s three previous encounters. “Chelsea made it very difficult for us. They never opened the game up completely because they were happy with a 0-0 for a long time and, of course , when it was 1-0 they were very happy. We had always to change the game. It was in my mind that Chelsea would play like this because every time we played them they tried to chase us all over the pitch and we won. So I expected them tonight to be more cautious. “They played well, defended well. You could see that it was a European Cup game because they played not to concede a goal. It’s very important at home not to concede a goal. They tried to suck us in to get a break and to score.” On Eidur Gudjohnsen’s goal, did he feel his goalkeeper was culpable? “Lehmann feels he is guilty because he came for the ball and he was caught out by Gudjohnsen. Having seen it again on TV, I felt Gudjohnsen played very well on the ball but the question is should he (Lehmann) have come out or not for that kind of ball. We try to play very high and to get him to take a high position as well. That’s one of the risks we take. “The goal gave them a big lift and for us it was a big blow and we needed to show character and patience to survive.” The Blues’ head coach was full of praise for the Iceland striker’s perseverance in chasing the ball which led to his goal. “Gudjohnsen’s goal was for his determination,” he explained. “He believed, he got the ball and scored a goal. After the goal, we had ten fantastic minutes. We retook our confidence and played good football without being anxious, with a free mind. Maybe we deserved to score the second goal. “But then we concede a goal. It was a great reaction by the Arsenal players and Pires scored a good goal. “I think the match was good. I enjoyed it a lot. After this performance my players are happy and I am happy. I am very pleased.” After a particularly difficult and stressful week with the massive media speculation surrounding his future, Claudio was appreciative for the wave of support he received from the Chelsea faithful. “I would like to say thank you to everybody for their support for me. But I want their support only for Chelsea, only for my players, they deserve it,” he humbly acknowledged. “The manager changes, the chairman changes, Chelsea remain, that is important.” Gill Lester -- 嗚嗚....我快哭了.... -- ╔═══╗ ╔╗ ╔╗ ╔═══╗ ╔╗ ╔═══╗ ╔═══╗ ╔═══╗ ║╔═╗║ ║║ ║║ ║╔══╝ ║║ ║╔══╝ ║╔══╝ ║╔═╗║ ║║ ╚╝ ║╚═╝║ ║╚══╗ ║║ ║╚══╗ ║╚══╗ ║╚═╝║ ║║ ╔╗ ║╔═╗║ ║╔══╝ ║║ ╚══╗║ ║╔══╝ ║╔═╗║ ║╚═╝║ ║║ ║║ ║╚══╗ ║╚══╗ ╔══╝║ ║╚══╗ ║║ ║║ ╚═══╝ ╚╝ ╚╝ ╚═══╝ ╚═══╝ ╚═══╝ ╚═══╝ ╚╝ ╚╝ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 210.244.40.105
