It’s an exciting year for the Mohn family and thus also for Europe’s largest media group Bertelsmann from Gütersloh, which has been under the family’s control for almost 200 years. A few days ago, Liz Mohn announced that she would be handing the fate of Bertelsmann in the hands of her son Christoph on her 80th birthday today. Liz Mohn has been the spokesperson for the Mohn family since 2002, which directly holds around 20 percent of the company. This position is now taken over by Christoph Mohn – as well as the chairmanship of the steering committee of Bertelsmann Verwaltungsgesellschaft (BVG), in which the family’s voting rights are bundled. This guarantees him control of the entire group via a right of veto and allows him to determine the strategic direction to a large extent. The remaining 80 percent or so of the capital shares in Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA are held by foundations such as the Bertelsmann Foundation, the Reinhard Mohn Foundation and the BVG Foundation. Liz Mohn is now also stepping down from the board of the influential Bertelsmann Stiftung.

“My husband was my teacher”

Liz Mohn determined the fortunes of the media empire for a long time. She originally started at Bertelsmann as a secretary. At the age of 17 she met the then company patriarch Reinhard Mohn at a company party and finally married him in 1982.

Then she began to take on tasks in the group with his support. “My husband was my teacher,” wrote the jubilee. Reinhard Mohn took over C. Bertelsmann Verlag in 1947 in the fifth generation and expanded it into a media group. He died in 2009. It was up to Liz Mohn to help shape the change to a digital media company and to determine it in a responsible position.

Largest book publishing group in the world

What kind of company is it that the 80-year-old is now handing over to her son Christoph? The business of the media group already starts with the children. It is active on the education market with the Bertelsmann Education Group. Bertelsmann expects a lot from the growing demand for e-learning.

The group also includes Penguin Random House, the world’s largest consumer publishing group with more than 300 independent book publishers, and the magazine publisher Gruner + Jahr, which is responsible for titles such as “Stern”, “Geo”, “Brigitte”, “Essen & Trinken” or ” Beautiful living “is known.

TV group as a source of revenue

The RTL Group, in which Bertelsmann holds a majority stake of 75 percent, with the channels RTL, RTL 2, Vox and NTV, provides the largest share of group sales. Then there is BMG, the fourth largest music publisher in the world. The second largest group division – measured in terms of sales – is the service company Arvato, which operates call centers and organizes financial services, IT services and logistics for its customers. A total of around 130,000 employees work for the media group worldwide. In the past 2020 financial year, it generated sales of 17.3 billion euros. The “Billionaires-Index” of the news service Bloomberg estimates the current fortune of Liz Mohn at 7.5 billion dollars.

In the sixth generation

Liz Mohn was honored with the Great Cross of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in 2010 for her social commitment. Mohn donated, among other things, a singing competition and campaigns for stroke victims. The Bertelsmann Foundation is one of the largest foundations in Germany and, according to its own statements, invested 74 million euros in charitable projects last year. It was founded in 1977 by the corporate patriarch Reinhard Mohn. Critics accuse her of pursuing the interests of the group with her influence.

The new family spokesman Christoph Mohn takes over the reins of the Gütersloh group, which has its roots in the printing of religious works, in the sixth generation. In addition to the 55-year-old and Liz Mohn, their daughter Brigitte is also represented on the steering committee of the Bertelsmann management company

Cruises start again The return of the dream ships

As of: 06/17/2021 3:52 p.m.

The cruise industry is trying to start over in small steps. Successful vaccinations and falling infection numbers are fueling hopes, but the way out of the crisis should not be an easy one.

By Thomas Spinnler, tagesschau.de

The cruise industry, along with the entire tourism sector, was one of the biggest losers in the pandemic. The entire business came to a standstill at times. The 7-day incidence values, which have recently fallen across Europe, and the vaccination campaign, the progress of which is becoming increasingly noticeable, are awakening hopes for a successful restart in 2021, both in the industry and among those interested in cruises. It is not excluded. Just yesterday, a cruise ship with guests left Hamburg for the first time in seven months . This morning went for the first time since the outbreak of the corona pandemic in front of Palma in Mallorca a cruise ship at anchor, the “Mein Schiff 2” of the German shipping company TUI Cruises. It is said to be the first of more than 20 who will be calling this port by the end of August.

“Time was used”

“The chances of a real fresh start for the cruise industry are very good due to the measures that have been taken,” said Helge Grammerstorf, National Director of the Cruise Lines International Association Germany (Clia) tagesschau.de firmly. The providers used the time to expand the security measures against Corona, to keep the ships ready for the incoming operation and to strengthen the sustainability measures.

However, the memory of what happened during the start of the pandemic last year is likely to be fresh for many. Hundreds of vacationers were stuck on board, some for weeks, ports refused entry – the sometimes dramatic images are not so easy to forget.

“Safer than in the supermarket”

That is why protection against corona remains the determining issue on cruise ships. Grammerstorf is certain that health protection on the ships is guaranteed. Individual corona cases cannot be completely ruled out. But both staff and passengers would be tested before boarding, during the trip and also at the end of the trip.

“In principle, it is safer on the ship than when shopping in the supermarket, since the ships are completely sealed off from the outside,” says the Clia director. This also applies to shore excursions, which take place in closed groups that are not allowed to be left. “In the very rare event that a person should test positive during the voyage, it is provided that all affected persons and their contacts are taken off board to protect everyone else,” says Grammerstorf.

The shipyards are also suffering

The industry is an important economic factor. In Germany alone, the ocean cruise business is worth billions. According to the association’s data, the area with around 48,000 employees generated around 6.6 billion euros in 2019. Above all, however, it represents 80 percent of orders from German shipyards.

The German shipbuilders were therefore hit hard by the crisis. Because many shipyards have specialized in the construction and maintenance of cruise ships. Jobs have also been cut, both at the shipyards and among the cruise lines.

“Offers are accepted”

According to Clia, according to the latest available figures from September 2020, around 28,000 jobs have been lost, more than half. If the industry returns to a reasonably normal and predictable course of business, many will return. No wonder, then, when the hope of a new start becomes more and more urgent.

According to Grammerstorf, the customers are very enthusiastic about the offers, there is a great demand for cruises: “Demand pressure has built up while it was not possible to travel. The pre-bookings for 2022 are also very encouraging.” A more precise forecast is currently not possible, as the countries are only gradually opening up and therefore many departures are scheduled at short notice.

High costs, hardly any income

The business will hardly be profitable at first. No income, or at best low income, is offset by high running costs. After all, the ships cannot simply be completely decommissioned when they are in ports or in roadsteads. Some of the crew must remain on board, the ships must be kept functional, which requires regular and intensive maintenance. In addition, the huge passenger capacities of the ships cannot be used to their full capacity despite the start of travel activity due to the corona-related distance rules. Higher costs, also because of the various protective measures, are offset by lower income, which would have to be offset with higher prices. “At the moment, the main thing is to show that cruises can also take place safely under Corona conditions,” emphasizes Grammerstorf. The cruise operators have to accept that it is likely to be a losing business, at least initially

The book “Forever Life 2” appeared in the National High School mock exam in 2021. Specifically, in part 1, the test contains an excerpt from the book, and candidates read and understand and answer questions about the message the author sends in the passage: “Knowledge and education are completely different from wisdom. People who study more degrees and have more knowledge are not necessarily more talented and wise than people. The more people rely on them, the more they think they learn, the more they cling to things. Their ideas are limited and they often show intolerance and empathy for other people’s thoughts.Those who are good at reasoning often prefer to argue, argue, disagree with others according to their thoughts rather than listening. , explore and empathize. Knowledge helps us argue and convince with valid arguments, but it will not really affect others, because it cannot really win hearts and penetrate human souls. Only what goes from the heart can reach the heart of another.” The passage in the above exam is one of the tips given by the author in the book to help people transform their minds to be able to overcome the terrible upheavals that are taking place. The work has pointed out the difference in rank that is often confused between “Knowledge” and “Wisdom”, between “Knowledge” and “Spiritual”. The limit of knowledge, knowledge is still not enough for humanity to understand the deep roots of all problems. People still need to achieve more comprehensive enlightenment of “mind” in order to be able to “see beyond” things. “Forever Life 2” gives you a new perspective on the world, the cycle of reincarnation and the law of cause and effect; wake up and cultivate a good attitude towards life. Following Thomas’s strange lives in the mighty civilizations of Atlantis and Egypt in volume 1, “Forever Lives 2” is Thomas’ next unprecedented journey on a train through time – no The period stretches from contemporary America, back to the Mesopotamian desert of Assyria to ancient Greece, Persia, and India through the conquests of Alexander the Great. The memory of the heroic warrior Achilles in the legendary siege of Troy, the sudden awakening of the undefeated great emperor when conquering the mysterious country or the mysteries of the tomb of tyrant Qin Shi Huang… The magnificent picture of the human condition has to rotate constantly in the causal storm of ambition, war, hatred and love throughout the history of the world. Not only are Thomas’ profound lessons on Cause and Effect, “Forever Life 2” also lifts the veil of mystery and explores the endless journey of souls through the realms, the transit station in countless lifetimes. living… All are summed up, logically strung together with a harmonious perspective between spirituality, science, philosophy and the history of civilizations from East to West, from ancient to modern. Through wise conversations, the work also offers a way to transform karma, at the same time, warn of great dangers and changes in the future of humanity as well as sending healing messages. Compared to part 1, the richness and breadth of knowledge of “Forever Life 2” is expanded in many fields to further clarify the universal law of cause and effect, the primordial energy that creates life. existence of all things in the universe, of which man is the most vivid reflection. As soon as it was released, the latest work of Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong created a fever, was well received by a large number of readers, even “hunted” as a spiritual “vaccine” in the midst of the peak of the world. 4th Covid-19 pandemic. The world is entering a period of many challenges and witnessing catastrophic and traumatic events that have never occurred in human history. The Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, natural disasters, storms and floods, forest fires, potential regional war risks cover people in anxiety and insecurity not understanding what is happening and will happen. With compassion, love and profound enlightenment, Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong wrote this work to help readers better understand the law of energy, the close relationship between cause and effect, spreading the seeds of awakening and healing, and providing alarming analysis of the future of humanity in a very special period – the cycle of the planet.

The main character Thomas in Eternal life is a successful American businessman, also a confidant of author Nguyen Phong. In part 1, Thomas has lived through mystical lives, from the mighty Atlantis civilization to the ancient Egyptian kingdom of powerful Pharaohs to modern-day America. In part 2, Thomas continues his human journey through three lives Assyrian, Greek and modern times with a mysterious colleague from past lives, Kris. The incredible interlacing stories of the two easily explain the Buddhist lessons – from attachment to cause and effect, reincarnation… Attachment remains after death The story goes that, one day Thomas was visiting the old house of an old friend, this businessman suddenly saw a strange old man, turned out to be a spirit that passed away decades ago. This accountant’s soul implored Thomas to fulfill one wish: Destroy the papers recording the wrong payments of the former owner, because of sudden death the accountant was unable to do so. . “It’s been more than 80 years, I still have that in my heart and have never dared to leave this house. I have to stay here to keep the notebook, to avoid it falling into the hands of others,” the old man said. That is, just because of an unfinished task that his spirit could not escape forever. Thomas’s strange encounter with the old accountant’s ghost can help us figure out where we are in the river of destiny. Meeting is destiny, working with the boss is life; spending in the dark is the cause, and the notebook is the effect. The old accountant’s attachment is that the boss’s secrets should not be kept, secrets that can affect the reputation of the person he has served. It has become a stored part of the store consciousness of this life. “When a person dies, a person leaves the physical body and exists in another form called the bardo or spirit body. This is the intermediate state between death and the next rebirth. The only thing that really exists is the store consciousness, which is the basis of existence, the foundation of all consciousness. Every thought, word, and action in a lifetime, whether good or bad, creates a cause, or a seed, which is stored in the store-consciousness, never to be lost,” the book explains. Eternal life, part 1, 2 – Author: Nguyen Phong Sow cause and reap fruit Human life is like a dream, it’s too short for us to stop and reflect on what causes cause and effect, and then steps into the spirit world and the rest is just attachment. Meetings in Eternal life Part 2 is sometimes too mundane, like what we have been going through. But reading until the end, we realize, it turns out that every daily action can cause cause and effect, which no one can control. Thomas and Don C (the new owner of the accountant’s ghost house) make friends from a co-worker relationship that is also a result of cause and effect for both of them. Thomas meeting the spirit is a part of life, releasing the responsibility for the spirit to return peace to the Don C family is a part of picking the fruit. But it is also possible that Thomas is spreading past cause and effect, or new cause in the future. Still follow Eternal life In part 2, when cause and effect will bear fruit depends on many other factors such as inspiration, subsequent behavior and merit of each person. Causality interdependence manifests: “If this exists, the other is formed. When this arises, the other arises. If one does not exist, the other does not exist. When this is destroyed, the other is destroyed.” That is also the fate, the predestined birth. Our small actions every day can make a huge connection over time. The Mission of Reincarnation We humans are inherently sentient and as in theory Dependent origination of Buddhism, one can become entangled in the cycle of samsara. A continuous cycle of cause and effect can then be transmigrated to the six paths of reincarnation: heaven, human, Atula, animal, hungry ghosts, and hell. Thomas’s colorful journey back to his past life, through “the Mesopotamian deserts of Assyria to ancient Greece, Persia, and India through the conquests of Alexander the Great” has explained us better about this. the reincarnation of a human being. Thomas and his mysterious friend Kris have cultivated together for many lifetimes, although the path is not the same, but the predestined connection has caused them to meet again to complete their previous promises and missions. Or Thomas reunited with friends from past lives to relearn lessons to be learned. If there is a cause, there must be a result, so two people keep borrowing and repaying each other, lasting for many lifetimes without end. Such is the complexity of cause and effect in samsara. And each person’s task is to live a life that opens their hearts to everyone, develops love, and learns the lessons they need to learn, “instead of just worrying about beautifying the body, which is now dead and floating. life after life in the endless stream of samsara”, as Thomas explained.

Industry collects billions Record sums for biotech companies

Status: 15.06.2021 10:46 a.m.

The successes of biotech companies such as BioNTech attract investors: The industry has a new financial record in Germany. But the exuberance could be followed by disillusionment. By Thomas Spinnler, tagesschau.de The entire biotech industry is currently benefiting greatly from the attention generated by the rapid and successful development of corona vaccines. The pandemic has given a boost to a sector that is already in the focus of many investors due to technological and medical advances in recent years. As the “Financial Times” (FT) reports, the venture capitalist Flagship Pioneering – one of the major investors in the Vaccine manufacturer Moderna – around $ 3.5 billion for a new fund. Its aim is to promote the next generation of biotech companies.

Fund tries a new model

When investing in the biotech industry, investors must calculate with particular risks. Many of the companies to invest in do not yet have a product on the market. It is uncertain whether this will ever be the case, as the path from research to a marketable product is very long and often fails.

01/06/2021

Flagship Pioneering is now trying a different way. What is special, according to “FT”, is that the fund’s goal is not the usual search for newly founded companies in which to invest. Rather, modern biotechnologies are to be developed in-house in certain segments under the umbrella of the fund. Only then are plans to set up companies as offshoots.

The profits are gushing

Unsurprisingly, financiers are on the lookout for business ideas; they smell a gigantic business. Just a look at the rapidly rising share prices of many companies in the past few months shows how convinced the market players are of a lucrative future for the sector. In fact, profits are gushing – at least for the best-known representatives who have successfully launched products. BioNTech generated a net profit of 1.1 billion euros in the first quarter of 2021. In the first quarter of 2020, the Mainz-based company had to accept a net loss of 53 million euros due to high research and development costs.

05/10/2021

The US vaccine manufacturer Moderna made in the first quarter profit – equal to a billion dollars. In the previous year, Moderna had to cope with a loss of 124 million. The turnover multiplied from eight million to 1.9 billion dollars. $ 1.7 billion of this comes from corona vaccine revenue. While Moderna shares rose by more than 200 percent in the past twelve months, BioNTech shares gained over 340 percent in the same period.

Lighthouse companies in particular benefit

In Germany, the biotech industry set a new financial record last year. As the experts from the testing and consulting company EY calculated in their Biotech Report 2021, financing in Germany reached a peak of 3.1 billion euros in 2020. A comparison with the USA shows the order of magnitude. According to EY, around $ 100 billion went into biotech financing for venture capitalists.

02/27/2021

“Covid-19 is a huge catalyst for the entire biotechnology industry,” said Alexander W. Nuyken, Head of the Life Sciences Sector in Strategy and Transactions at EY and co-author of the study. In their report, the experts at EY point out that the investments essentially relate to the flagship company BioNTech, which alone accounted for 51 percent of the financing volume in 2020. According to Nuyken, biotechnology is part of the solution to a problem that is a matter of fate for humanity. “That has come to mind.”

More help from the state?

This year it’s going on at a high pace: The “Handelsblatt” quotes from preliminary figures from the Bio Deutschland Association. Accordingly, the industry received a total of 870 million euros in capital from January to May. That is around three and a half times as much as in the same period last year. Nuyken campaigns for the state to help even more: “I hope that politicians show more will to improve framework conditions.” There is now an opportunity for the biotech scene to play a major role in this country in the long term or to play an even greater role in the future.

Hope for new products

In fact, taxpayers have already made a major contribution to making the industry so successful: Since the beginning of the pandemic, governments have allocated tens of billions to research and development on vaccines, which are now generating sales and profits for companies. However, it is uncertain whether, thanks to the many fresh billions, the supply of innovative medical products will make a leap. Nuyken warns of disappointing expectations: “If investors with no biotech experience think they can make a quick buck here, they’re wrong.” After the boom, the expert warns, disillusionment could quickly set in.

Recently, Beck received many ads from Tinder about premium service. Beck has never paid for a dating app. He thinks paying £14.59 a month is an unreasonable price. “I just turned 28. Sometimes I wonder if I’m being charged more than young people. If you’re single at 28, do the tech giants know that many people are so scared that they might pay any price to get a date?”, Beck told The Guardian . Dating apps, make friends quite popular with young people in recent years. Photo: Ties. Beck conducted a survey with friends, relatives, and community groups and asked them to submit screenshots of the prices they pay for using dating apps. In the group of respondents who responded, there was a clear difference. Those over 30 will be charged £27.49-29.49/month, while the rest of the users only have to pay £13.99-14.49. Tinder isn’t the only dating app with paid services. Many other platforms also launch similar features besides the free version to expand the scope of searching for love for users. For example, Bumble asks members to pay £14.99/month for Bumble Boost to give them access to unlimited “swipe” (showing interest in someone) mode. With the Bumble Premium plan (£32.99/month), users can see who has liked them. This functionality is similar on the premium service of Coffee Meets Bagel (£34/month). In addition, they will also receive a large amount of information about other people such as recent activity history. Pay to find love Sophie Thomas, a dating and love expert, says everyone should buy an upgraded feature. “You can absolutely meet your ideal person by using free services. However, if you’re really serious about the big milestone in your life, it’s also a good thing to invest in dating,” says Thomas. According to Thomas, paying a fee helps users get better search engines, which can save time and effort. “Getting to know someone takes a long time, so you shouldn’t be in a hurry to make friends with a stranger. Once you’re happy with an app, buy a long-term subscription to access dating opportunities until you find the right one,” she added. James Preece, podcast host Love Machine , agree with this statement. However, he argues that it’s not simply paying more to get better results. If the profile, photos, and messages are bad, the person will still get the desired results. “If the record is good, unlocking extras can boost your chances. Some of the premium functions like on Bumble allow you to use more filters when searching. That can help you get quality ‘matches’,” Preece said. The premium features of the dating app bring unlimited modes to users. Photo: Timesnext. Besides those who agree, many argue that paying a large amount of money to find love is a waste. Kate Mansfield (from London, UK), relationship expert, is among the naysayers. According to her, people who are confident, love themselves, know what they want, will not waste money on matchmaking services or an upgrade of a dating app. They can take advantage of free platforms and find their ideal lover. “You think paying for a premium service is the right thing to do, but you’re wrong. Because you will waste it being in a group of people who are struggling with love and dating,” Mansfield asserts. Instead of using a paid app, Mansfield advises: “Invest in yourself more like attending training courses, therapy to help us be in the best position. Then use the free versions of Tinder, Hinge or Bumble to find love.”

The book “Forever Life and Life 2” by Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong. The book was published in the midst of the storm of the 4th pandemic that is spreading to Vietnam’s provinces and cities and many strange events and natural disasters are happening around the world almost simultaneously. Is it a coincidence or the fateful karma of the universe to pay off because of what humans have done? The world is entering a period of many challenges and witnessing catastrophic and traumatic events that have never occurred in human history. The Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, natural disasters, storms and floods, forest fires, potential regional war risks cover people in anxiety and insecurity not understanding what is happening and will happen. With compassion, love and profound enlightenment, Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong wrote this work to help readers better understand the law of energy, the close relationship between cause and effect, spreading the seeds of awakening and healing, and providing alarming analysis of humanity’s future in a very special planetary cycle.

The sages have pointed out that the process of awakening begins with each person. And it will not be a hopeless journey if we are both truly aware of the meaning of life and our mission. Whether our future will become better or not is due to the energy from our own thoughts and actions today. One of the profound messages from the book is expressed through the advice of businessman Thomas, encouraging people to discover new life values ​​as well as new knowledge: “In every person’s life, sometimes just need If we dare to ask questions and dare to seek answers, we will enter a journey that completely changes our perception and meaning of life. Because life is a never-ending, endless journey of experience and learning. Every hour that passes, the world produces millions of new things. Those who stop learning and discovering will come to ignorance, conservatism, outdated prejudices.” And he also warned that: “But people everywhere in the world are still very subjective. People live and run by inertia rather than contemplation and awakening. It’s not that they don’t have the time, it’s that they don’t have the grace and courage to wake up. Maybe it’s time for humans to learn their lesson! No other way. We all know that it’s easier to wake up a bankrupt, unemployed, poor person than waking up someone who is arrogant with many layers of thick outer shells – money, fame, position, title, degree, … – while their inner values ​​such as compassion, love and spiritual understanding are mostly empty or too poor.” Author Nguyen Phong shared in the book that everything, big or small, will contribute directly to the present or future life, even to the next life. It is the karma of the previous life that adds our karma to our actions in this life to form a huge complex karmic wheel that does not omit anyone, any country, and does not omit anything. any behavior or thought. When writing “Long live life”, author Nguyen Phong wishes to convey awakening messages and responsible warnings with a compassionate and loving heart for everyone to realize, transformation – like butterflies fluttering intensely to many people Because the end of those pervasive vibrations will create a transformation of consciousness to create a better future for each person and for humanity. Author: Prof. John Vu – Nguyen Phong. Compared to part 1, the richness and breadth of knowledge of “Forever Life 2″ is expanded in many fields to further clarify the universal law of cause and effect, the primordial energy that creates life. existence of all things in the universe, of which man is the most vivid reflection. Author Nguyen Phong asserts: “Human can be likened to a machine operating energy with thoughts, words, and actions. When we think, say, or do anything, we all release a stream of energy into space, it collides with other energies, disrupting the existing balance. So the universe must react in reverse to restore balance. In other words, our thoughts, words, or actions are all energies, or causes, that cause imbalance, so we will encounter the opposite reaction, which is also the result.” Mr. Nguyen Van Phuoc – Founder of First News – Tri Viet, the copyright holder, publisher and also the person directly with the editorial team of “Forever Life 2” for 68 days and nights shared: “I have met him. There were many strange and inexplicable things that had never happened in my previous experience, so Lifelong 2 made me rethink everything, step by step reassemble the connections logically. I believe that the life we ​​have is like a miracle of creation, human beings do not exist alone but there is a great machine of the universe observing and recording every thought, word and action. Even though everything happened a long time ago, although no one knows, it is fully understood by that realm. Similar to this world, there are no secrets, everything is witnessed by heaven and earth. I am sure that “Forever Life” by Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong, the work of the times, will accompany readers to fully understand and fully explore the world around them, understand the causal energy to truly towards a better life – for the future – and beyond”.

Those who stop learning and discovering will lead to ignorance, conservativeism and outdated prejudices ”. And he warns: “But people all over the world are still very subjective.

Maybe it’s time people need to learn their lessons! No other way. We all know that it is easier to awaken a person who is bankrupt, unemployed, or poor than it is to awaken the arrogant with many layers of outer shell – money, fame, status, title, diploma, … – while their inner values ​​such as compassion, love and spiritual understanding are mostly empty or too poor ” .

On Saturday night (23:30 on April 24), Chelsea started the sprint period with a heavy schedule, starting with the London derby at home West Ham. Chelsea entered the final month of the 2020-21 season fiercely, starting with a derby with West Ham Both have the same 55 points, and Chelsea are on top thanks to the sub-index. The London Stadium match will have a great influence on both opponents’ ambitions to win the Champions League next season. West Ham is having a wonderful season with coach David Moyes. Meanwhile, with Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea, the end of the Premier League race in the top 4 can be considered a success. After the London derby, Chelsea had to fly to Spain to play Real Madrid, within the first leg of the Champions League semi-final. The second leg between the two teams took place a week later, at Stamford Bridge. Between two strong letters with Real Madrid, Chelsea has a match against Fulham – opponents are struggling to stay relegated. Thus, in the next 10 days, Chelsea will face important turning points in both the Premier League and the Champions League. Not stopping, right after completing the semi-finals of the Champions League, Chelsea had to play Man City. If nothing unusual, this match could name Pep Guardiola’s army as English football champions. Real Madrid is Chelsea’s biggest rival Chelsea probably didn’t want to see this. Just trying to stop Man City from winning early, Tuchel teachers and students have a different derby with Arsenal. In the last two rounds of the Premier League, the Blues faced Leicester and Aston Villa respectively – who could completely make them embrace their hatred in their attempt to win the top 4. Also, in mid-May, Chelsea played the FA Cup final against Leicester. 9 battles in a month, density 3 days / match, the sprint to the finish of the Blues is really tough. The challenge with Tuchel Since being selected to replace Frank Lampard, coach Thomas Tuchel has made a big mark with Chelsea. Chelsea’s defense is great Former captain Dortmund and PSG bring a flourishing image for Chelsea to step up in the Premier rankings. They reached the FA Cup final, and the Champions League semi-final. Chelsea spent 20 official matches with Tuchel, with 65% victory. This rate is much higher than its predecessor Lampard – 52.4%. The strength that Tuchel brings is defensive performance. Chelsea only received 9 goals, with 15 matches kept clean sheets. Since Tuchel’s debut at Chelsea, with Wolves 0-0, no team in the 5 major leagues (Spain, England, Italy, Germany and France) has such a high clean sheet rate. However, the attacking effectiveness of the Blues is not high. Only 26 goals were scored after 20 games that Tuchel directed. 1/4 of the past games they cannot score. Great challenge awaits Thomas Tuchel The German strategist helps Timo Werner to be more involved in the match. Kai Havertz also improved. But the mutation is still low. Upcoming, Chelsea’s opponents are all strong teams, or “dark horses” of the season. In the Champions League arena, Real Madrid is much more brave than Atletico or Porto. Domestically, Chelsea won only West Ham 2 in the last 7 matches; inferior to Man City (won 2, lost 4 – including penalty shootout); won only 1 match in 6 recent confrontations with Leicester (3 matches not scored). The past 20 games are just the beginning of Thomas Tuchel’s adventure with Chelsea. Big challenges really await this 47-year-old military leader.
