However, what is unexpected to everyone is that at Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, even if Wenger sent the main players to start, it may be that the knockout match with Manchester United a few days ago was too exhausted, or it may be in the results. The game is irrelevant, the Arsenal players played extremely badly, and many players seem to have entered a holiday state!
Although Arshavin scored a goal for Arsenal in the second half with his personal ability, Arsenal's overall defense was terrible in the game. The striker combination of Anelka and Kalu completely penetrated Arsenal's defenses. Chelsea finally beat Arsenal 4-1 in the final game!

In the final round of the league, Hiddink continued to send all the main lineups to play. Chelsea scored three goals in the first half, which fully proved the players' recent good condition!
Although in the second half of the game, the Chelsea players obviously saw a certain degree of decline in their performance in order to save their energy and avoid injury. Sunderland scored two goals, but Chelsea ended the 08/09 season with a victory. Ranked 3rd in the league with the champion Manchester United by 7 points!
After the match with Sunderland, the Chelsea team flew to Rome, Italy, to prepare for this Champions League revenge battle with Manchester United!
The Stadio Olimpico in Rome is the host site of this UEFA Champions League game. As one of the most famous stadiums in Italy, it has hosted many major events!

After arriving in Italy, the Chelsea team immediately entered the mode of concentrating on preparations. Except for some official interview tasks, the Chelsea team refused outside interviews before the game!
On the other hand, Ferguson's interview before the game was to comment on Chelsea and Hiddink's results in the second half of the season. Although Chelsea's results were generally affirmed, there is no sense that Manchester United are superior!
"Chelsea did a good job, but it was easy for us to win 4-1 in the two rounds this season!"
"Thank Chelsea, at least we are more willing to meet them than we face Barcelona!"
"A head coach who led the team for half a year and relied on his former Yize for most of his tactics. I don't think he can beat me!"
Numerous quotations from Ferguson's pre-match interviews were reported, but Chelsea did not respond, just keeping silent!
In a subsequent routine interview, Hiddink revealed that he was very reluctant to fight saliva, thinking that it had no meaning to football, and it was an insinuation to Sir Ferguson!
Hiddink also revealed that ~EbookFREE.me~ During this week, in addition to collective entertainment, the team has been closed to outside news, so that players and the coaching staff can concentrate on preparing for the game. It's not a waste of energy on something meaningless!
Sir Ferguson has hit a soft nail!
Although many good news media relayed Ferguson's words to Hiddink, they were all rejected by Hiddink as having nothing to do with the game!
Hiddink’s plan is very simple. If you have a pre-match confrontation with Ferguson, an old fox who has been in the center of the professional football whirlpool for many years, he must not have any advantage, so it is better to cut off the interference of the opponent directly. Ways, so that players and themselves have a quiet space, concentrate on dealing with the game, instead of being recruited outside the game, causing psychological shock and emotional changes!
The Chelsea players also understood and agreed with Hiddink's suggestion to cut off communication with the outside world and concentrate on the game!
For most Chelsea players, Manchester United has been Chelsea’s biggest opponent in recent years, whether in the Premier League or in the Champions League!
In the previous two years, Chelsea was a few points behind Manchester United and lost the league championship! And last year's penalty shootout in Moscow on a rainy night lost the Champions League, and it is the eternal pain of many Chelsea players!
This year, their goal is to take revenge and bring the Champions League trophy back to Stamford Bridge!
For this championship, in order to wash away the pain of defeat in the Champions League final last year, the Chelsea players are willing to give up everything and concentrate on preparing for the game!
Many players understand that there are not many opportunities left for themselves to create brilliant in the European arena. They must seize this opportunity to compete for the championship!
