Ma Shi: Chelsea has the ability to spend more than one billion, but Fulham can t do it, so they can only fight hard

Hupu, August 29th, Fulham head coach Marco Silva attended the pre-match press conference against Chelsea.

"It will be a very meaningful game, it's a special derby. It's a special moment for our fans, and when you feel that feeling, the players get extra motivation.

Every Premier League game, you can show your strength, and that's it. It's another game, we only scored three points, that's it, but you know, there's always something special behind the game.

Since we joined the club, we've completely changed the record against them over the past few seasons. We've been very competitive, striving to match them and have a good balance on the court."

Silva is very clear about the strength of Chelsea's opponents currently facing, but his goal is to make sure that after the first whistle was blew up this Saturday, the two sides are more evenly matched.

"Off the court, they have been doing the same thing for the past three or four seasons, not millions, but billions, and this summer. The teams performed very well last season and won the UEFA Champions League, they were the favorites to win, but they also won the Club World Cup and strengthened their roster.

Even their offensive line - Estewan, [Liam] Delapp, Joao Pedro, and there may be more players coming soon, and Garnacho may join. I think this reflects their own strength and their personal strength. The world outside the court is completely different. They In another world.

They have the ability to do things off the court that we can't do - our goal is to compete with them on the court, to compete seriously in their 95 or 100 minutes of games against them, just like two games last season.

Both games were great, very close and passionate, we scored goals at Stamford Bridge, they scored goals at Craven Farm.

But the way we faced them, the way we competed against them, is what we were going to work hard to do, to do it in a completely different environment than off the court on the match day. '
