Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 104
If Chen Ran was dumbfounded by Mourinho's behavior before, then their actions now dumbfounded all the audience and media reporters.

Most of the players of the two teams are concentrated within the 30-meter area of ​​Chelsea.

I don't know, I thought it was a match between two teams with disparity in strength.

Now Chelsea's restricted area is very similar to what Chen Ran once saw on TV, the fishing nets in Chagan Lake during winter fishing, which are full of lively big fish.

At this point, the initiative of the game was completely in the hands of Crystal Palace.

One after another, the crosses were continuously sent to the penalty area from the left and right sides.

The sky in Chelsea's penalty area has also gradually fallen into the control of Crystal Palace.

No way, Crouch 201cm, Tony 193cm, Vidic 191cm, Ronaldo 187cm, Chiellini 186cm.

On the Chelsea side, Drogba is 189cm, Terry is 187cm, Carvalho is 182cm, Ferreira is 181cm, and Bridge is 180cm.

Except for Drogba and Terry who can still play, the others are younger brothers.

Squeezing, pulling, hugging, hand-to-hand combat, turning people on their backs.

I'm not tall enough, so I need to make small moves.

Many of the defensive actions of Chelsea players can actually call fouls.

But the referee on duty for this game, as if he didn't see anything, didn't mean to blow the whistle at all.

Chen Ran was so angry that he jumped up and down on the sidelines, but he had nothing to do with the referee.

Who let this time, there is no video referee yet.

When a cross from Evra was once again broken out of the penalty area by Drogba.

Fabregas, who grabbed the ball, did not distribute the ball to the wing this time, but chose to dribble the ball himself from the center.

Seeing this situation, Makelele immediately rushed to intercept.

Fabregas flicked the ball to the right, took a step, and shot with his foot before Makelele's foot stretched over.

Under the interference of Makelele, Fabregas's shot was a bit hasty.

Seeing that the direction of the ball's flight has clearly deviated from the range of the goal, at this time, Crouch, who happened to be on the flight path of the ball, took a quick step back.

He used his head as a refraction point, and pushed the ball that had deviated from the direction of the goal to the other side.

It was this weak top, but it just happened to make the ball's flight direction turn to the goal again.

At this time, Cudicini, who had moved ahead of time, was already a step too slow to turn back at this time, and could only watch helplessly as the ball rushed into the net.

"Goal"

Finally scored!
At this time, the game has reached the 89th minute.

Crystal Palace finally broke the deadlock by Crouch, leading Chelsea 1-0.

It's really not easy to break through the bus set down by Mourinho.

Chen Ran couldn't help jumping up excitedly on the sidelines, but he reacted immediately.

The game is not over, and now is not the time to celebrate.

The arrangement just now can only be used in extreme cases.

Now that we are in the lead, we must immediately adjust our deployment.

Chen Ran immediately called Southgate over from the celebrating crowd.

"Gareth, Chelsea may launch a final counterattack, now we change the formation to 352."

"Tell Chiellini and Vidic to come back and play with you in the back three immediately."

"Evra and Ribery are left and right wing-backs respectively. Let Ronaldo play the midfielder and tell him that his task is to keep an eye on Lampard. Where is Lampard, where is he. Understand?"

"Don't worry, boss, victory is ours."

When the two sides kicked off again, the game time had exceeded 10 minutes and entered the stoppage time stage.

As Chen Ran expected, Mourinho ordered Chelsea to launch the final counterattack.

It's a pity that Chelsea's players on the field exhausted a lot of energy after the high-intensity defense just now.

Even if he wanted to attack now, he was powerless.

Seeing the performance of the players on the field, Mourinho's face turned livid, and he didn't say another word.

Before the referee blew the final whistle for the end of the game, he turned around and walked into the player tunnel under everyone's surprised eyes.

"???"

The reporters in the stands also saw this scene, and everyone looked confused.

"What happened? What happened? Why did he leave? The game is not over yet."

"I don't know either. Maybe he's in a bad mood."

"Fxxxk! Can't he afford to lose?"

"I think probably so."

"Is this the real face of the new Champions League champion coach?"

"It seems that we don't know enough about this Mr. Mourinho."

"In terms of demeanor alone, that Hua countryman is much better than him."

"I agree with that."

"Me, too!"

Less than a minute after Mourinho left, the referee finally blew the final whistle of the game.

The entire Selhurst Park stadium suddenly became a sea of ​​joy.

Crystal Palace relied on Crouch's lore to beat Chelsea 1-0 at home.

While scoring three points, it also brought Chen Ran a winning bonus of 200 million euros.

After the game, Mourinho's early departure was criticized by the English media.

And Chen Ran is also very rare. After Mourinho landed in the Premier League, he changed from a negative comparison clown to a positive figure.

"Mr Mourinho, he should apologize for his early departure."

"As a new Champions League champion coach, Mr. Mourinho seems to lack enough respect for the Premier League."

"We seem to see nothing but pride and prejudice in the new Champions League-winning coach."

"This is England, I hope Mr. Mourinho pays attention to his behavior."

"Compared to Mr. Mourinho, the Chinese man in Crystal Palace seems to be more elegant."

"In the peak duel between two popular young coaches, the Chinese from Crystal Palace won the game first."

In China, thousands of miles away, many fans stayed up all night to watch this Premier League focus match.

"I didn't expect that Crystal Palace has become so strong now?"

"Yes. In the second half of the game, Crystal Palace was basically playing against Chelsea."

"Yeah, aren't they newly promoted? How did they kill last season's runner-up Chelsea?"

"And that Chen Ran, isn't he the owner of Crystal Palace? Why is he standing on the sidelines directing the game? Doesn't Crystal Palace have a head coach?"

"Hehe, you look like a fake fan. You don't even know that Chen Ran is both the owner of Crystal Palace and the head coach of the team."

"Huh? That's okay too?"

"What's wrong with this? As long as you have the corresponding coaching qualification certificate."

"I didn't expect that Chen Ran not only has the money to buy a club, but even has a coaching certificate to coach the Premier League. It seems that he really likes football."

"That is. It is not easy to coach a Premier League team. Judging from Chen Ran's coaching performance, I am now more and more optimistic about Crystal Palace."

"You are talking nonsense. Crystal Palace has won three consecutive victories and ranked first. Can you not be optimistic?"

"Anyway, I decided that as long as it is a Crystal Palace game, I will watch it no matter how late it is."

"That's right, I'll watch it too. If Crystal Palace really keeps playing like this, it's really hard to say who will win the Premier League championship this season."

In the third round of the Premier League, except for the focus battle between Crystal Palace and Chelsea.

Arsenal beat Blackburn 3-0 at home, also achieved three consecutive victories.With nine points tied with Crystal Palace, they won't let go.

In the other two strong teams, Manchester United drew 0:0 at home with Everton, and Liverpool drew 1:1 at home with Portsmouth, both of which were a bit behind.

London, Arsenal Club, Arsene Wenger's office.

Looking at the match report between Crystal Palace and Chelsea, Wenger was also full of emotion.

Today's young people are better than each other.

The game was played a day earlier than the Arsenal game, so Wenger watched the entire game on TV.

From Chen Ran's arrangement against Robben at the beginning of the first half, to Mourinho's retreat to lure Crystal Palace to attack, but Chen Ran was not fooled.

In the second half, Mourinho made several adjustments, but Chen Ran cracked them one by one.

Even at the end of the game, Mourinho and Chen Ran played hysterical crazy tactics.

All made Wenger acclaimed, and it felt like watching a movie with ups and downs.

Mourinho has two trophies in the UEFA Cup and the European Champions Cup, so his ability is naturally beyond doubt.

But that little guy from Huaguo who had dealt with him a few times had always surprised him.

Compared with last year's League Cup match, Wenger can clearly feel it.

Under Chen Ran's training, Crystal Palace's combat effectiveness is stronger than last season.

Especially the temperament of the game has obviously risen to a higher level.

It is very rare not to panic when encountering difficulties.

Thinking of this, Wenger drew a circle on the name of Crystal Palace.

Now only Crystal Palace and Arsenal have maintained a complete victory. This season's Premier League champion is likely to be produced between their two teams in the end.

"Isn't it too early to draw this conclusion now?"

Wenger muttered to himself.

Immediately, he laughed himself out, never expecting that he would attach so much importance to this little guy from Huaguo.

In Manchester, more than 300 kilometers away from London, at the Manchester United Club, Sir Alex Ferguson is losing his temper.

The new season started poorly, not only did Manchester United lose to the upstart Chelsea, but even Everton failed to win.

After three rounds of competition, Manchester United has fallen behind old rival Arsenal by five points.

Even the newly promoted Crystal Palace has now climbed to the top of the Premier League standings. This is the most unbearable thing for Ferguson.

Now any cat or dog can dominate the Premier League?
Arsenal stole the Premier League title last season, and Ferguson is suffocating to win it back this season.

Not to mention that Arsenal is still performing strongly, and another Crystal Palace has emerged.

Ferguson still remembers that Chen Ran snatched Ronaldo from Manchester United last summer. It would be fine if Crystal Palace stayed in the British Championship honestly.

Now that we are in the Premier League and ranked ahead of Manchester United, then the new and old grudges will be counted together.

Thinking of this, Ferguson also took a pen and drew a circle on the name of Crystal Palace, and turned around to explain to his assistant Queiroz.

"Carlos, you have recently focused on the situation of this Crystal Palace. This team is likely to be our new championship opponent this season."

"Alex, in the past there were often newly promoted horses who performed well in the early stages of the league, but they basically fell behind soon. Do you pay too much attention to this Crystal Palace?"

"It's different this time, I have a gut feeling that this Crystal Palace could be our new problem this season."

On one side of the Crystal Palace, they have won consecutive matches in the Premier League, while on the other side, Chen Ran sent Stephen to talk about the loan of the new stadium for a long time, and it finally took shape.

According to Chen Ran's request, the capacity of the new stadium is set at 6 people, and the possibility of expansion and upgrading must be retained.

According to the estimation of the hired professional organization, the total budget for the construction of the purchase zone will be about [-] million euros.

Of course, in most cases, this budget will end up being overrun in nine out of ten cases.

So after discussing with Stephen and others, Chen Ran negotiated with the bank with a loan amount of [-] million euros.

It's a pity that Stephen talked for a while, but they didn't reach a conclusion.

Because those banks think that Crystal Palace, a newly promoted Premier League team, suddenly proposed to build a new stadium with 6 people, which is a bit unreliable.

You must know that even for the Premier League giants like Manchester United and Arsenal, their home stadium capacity is only more than 6 people.

Liverpool's Anfield Stadium can only accommodate 4000 people.

You are a small Crystal Palace. Just after being promoted to the Premier League, a new stadium with a capacity of 6 people will be built. Is there something tricky about it?
What's more, the Chinese man still has a loan of 3000 million euros that has not been repaid.

Although Stephen has repeatedly emphasized that half of the construction funds will come from Chen Ran.

However, there must be demons when things happen out of the ordinary, and the British also understand this truth.

They didn't say they refused, but they put forward a lot of harsh conditions.

Either the interest rate is too high, or there are too many additional conditions, anyway, these are conditions that Chen Ran absolutely cannot accept.

Negotiations reached a stalemate for a time.

However, as Crystal Palace achieved a three-game winning streak in the Premier League, they unexpectedly overwhelmed the giants and occupied the top spot in the standings.

The attitude of those banks has also loosened.

After all, as long as the results are good enough, not to mention winning the championship, just qualifying to participate in the Champions League is a lot of money.

With this income backing, banks have the courage to lend.

The negotiations between Crystal Palace and various banks have finally achieved substantial progress.

"Chen, the current situation is like this. The main reason is that they have doubts about your identity as a Chinese. If you are British, you won't have so much trouble."

"Otherwise, Chen, how would you like to become a British citizen? On your terms, it can be done quickly through my relationship."

Stephen gave Chen Ran an idea.

In fact, this idea was not thought of by Stephen, but someone reminded him.

"Absolutely impossible. If I have to change my nationality in order to build a stadium, I would rather not build this stadium."

Chen Ran shook his head resolutely and refused, this is such a bad idea.

"Then it can only depend on your leadership performance. Crystal Palace must at least get a place in the Champions League this season. Anyway, the better the team's record, the better conditions I can get at the negotiating table."

Stephen spread his hands. Since Chen Ran is unwilling to take shortcuts, he can only rely on the results of the competition.

"understood."

Chen Ran nodded helplessly, and Temiao's construction of a stadium would also be linked to the team's performance.

A lot of pressure.
