Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 114

Seeing Brian Robson's actions, Chen Ran felt helpless.

With Crystal Palace's winning streak, Chen Ran has now been put under the spotlight, and his tactics have been carefully studied under a microscope.

It is obviously impossible to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger like before, and make a fortune in silence.

Now the physical condition of the players is not good, and Guardiola dare not use the very energy-consuming tactics of Guardiola. Now it depends on whether the simple and crude twin-tower tactics can blast West Bromwich Albion's goal.

It's a pity that Brian Robson is obviously prepared for Crystal Palace's twin tower tactics.

After West Bromwich Albion changed into a tall central defender, Albretsen and Schmeka among the three central defenders were responsible for double-teaming Tony who had just replaced him, and the remaining Gardeso was responsible for staring at Crowe. strange.

Right back Contra and right forward Greening, one pressed Ronaldo closely, and the other was on the side to protect, preventing Ronaldo from being easily passed by.

Left back Robinson and left forward Johansen are also responsible for flanking Alves like the right.

Bryan Robson has completely given up the offense, and he replaced the only striker, Kanu.Three defensive midfielders were lined up at the front of the penalty area, which seemed to be a 550 formation.

This is to defend the Crystal Palace to the end.

Chen Ran observed for a while, and saw that under the strict defense of West Bromwich Albion, Crystal Palace's offense still failed to score.

No. At 60 minutes, he replaced Alves with Ribery.

This time, Chen Ran used up three substitutions early.

The current offensive combination of Crystal Palace on the field, except for the absence of Modric, is basically the strongest lineup.

Cesc Fabregas repeatedly sent the ball wide, before Cristiano Ronaldo and Franck Ribery passed into the West Brom box as Crystal Palace's men blasted around Kuzzak's goal Indiscriminate bombing.

65 minute, 70 minutes, 75 minutes
Time passed bit by bit, but Crystal Palace never broke the deadlock on the field.

Seeing that there was not much time left, Chen Ran immediately called Vidic over from the sidelines.

Neither Southgate nor Simeone played this game, and Chen Ran appointed Vidic the captain on the spot.

"Nemania, you don't play central defender now. Call Chiellini, and you two go to the West Bromwich Albion penalty area to grab a header."

"Got it, boss."

Vidic also understands that time is running out, and without any hesitation, he went back and called Chiellini and rushed to West Bromwich Albion's penalty area.

Brian Robson was dumbfounded. Suddenly there were two tall men in his penalty area. He didn't have so many defensive players to deal with it.

This Chinese man is too crazy.

Bryan Robson looked towards Crystal Palace's backcourt. Now only the goalkeeper Cech and the only central defender Thiago Silva are left.

Even so, Thiago Silva's position has already been mentioned near the arc of the middle circle.Cech's position is on the penalty area line of the Crystal Palace.

This is completely ignoring West Bromwich Albion's counterattack.

At this time, Brian Robson hated himself for replacing the only striker Kanu too early, which made Chen Ran attack so recklessly.

Chen Ran's adjustments soon paid off.

Vidic is 191cm tall, and Chiellini is 187cm. The addition of these two new forces immediately made West Bromwich Albion's defense careless.

Brian Robson was temporarily transferred to mark the two big and tall full-backs Contra and Robinson. They were not opponents at all in terms of height or header ability.

When Ribery passed the ball into the West Bromwich Albion penalty area again, I saw Tony, Crouch, Chiellini, Vidic plus Ronaldo rushing from the left,
There are a total of five Crystal Palace players over 187cm, distributed in the front, middle and back three points, and at the same time vying for the ball to land.

"boom!"

I saw Vidic leaping high and smashing the ball into the goal guarded by Kuzzak.

"Goal"

Chen Ran couldn't help raising his arms and shouting on the sidelines, and finally scored a goal.

At this point, the game has come to No.805 minutes.

Chen Ran wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands, he was so nervous that he was sweating.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Chen Ran picked up a bottle of mineral water on the sidelines and took a few sips.

Suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned around and shouted at the celebrating Crystal Palace players:

"Nemania, George, you two are going back to play guards. From now on, the formation shrinks, let me go back to defend!"

"Got it, boss!"

"Boss, don't worry, we will leave the rest to us."

The Crystal Palace players are now very familiar with their coach's coaching style. Once they take the lead, they start to play defensive counterattacks. Everyone is used to it.

Chen Ran yelled like no one on the sidelines, and the adjustments he made were not only clearly heard by the people next to him, but also by Brian Robson on the other side.

"Fxxxk!"

Brian Robson's face darkened when he heard that, this Chinese native was really direct enough, and he didn't hide his intention to defend at all.

No way, who made Brian Robson's cards run out?

He used all three substitutions to strengthen West Bromwich Albion's defense. Now he just wants to attack, and there are no offensive players on the field.

So, in the remaining minutes, West Bromwich Albion's limp attack, like scratching an itch, did not pose any threat to Crystal Palace.

In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Crystal Palace narrowly beat West Bromwich Albion 1-0 at home with Vidic's lore goal.

With the extremely unfavorable schedule, Crystal Palace won the first ten consecutive victories in the Premier League.

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

What made Chen Ran most happy was that Manchester United defeated their old rival Arsenal 2-0 at Old Trafford in a major game of this round of the Premier League.

This can be regarded as a great help to Crystal Palace. The point difference between Crystal Palace and Arsenal has now widened to five points.

In other games, Chelsea beat Blackburn 4-0 at home and Liverpool beat Charlton 2-0 at home.

In the standings, Crystal Palace scored 25 points with 22 victories, Arsenal [-] points with [-] wins, [-] draw and [-] loss, and Chelsea [-] points with [-] wins, [-] draw and [-] losses.

Crystal Palace had been winning streak before, and the heat between Chen Ran and the team began to heat up.

Now that they have achieved ten consecutive victories, they have also opened up the No.2 Arsenal by five points.

The effect of the double superposition is that Chen Ran's photo once again appeared on the pages of major media in England.

"Ten victories in a row, Crystal Palace has created the best start to England's top flight!"

"Crystal Palace continues to widen the point gap with Arsenal, and the championship is undoubtedly revealed."

"The battle between Manchester United and Arsenal, the biggest beneficiary turned out to be Crystal Palace!"

"The Chinese man is fulfilling his promise step by step. Does Crystal Palace really have the hope of becoming a new wealthy club?"

"The era of the Chinese ruling the Premier League is coming!"

"The latest data from bookmakers shows that the funds that are optimistic about Crystal Palace winning the Premier League this season have increased sharply!"

In Huaguo, thousands of miles away, more and more domestic fans pay attention to Crystal Palace.

Some netizens set up a post bar for the Crystal Palace club on the newly established Baidu post bar, and it immediately became the base camp for domestic Crystal Palace fans to gather and communicate.

"Have you watched the latest Premier League? Crystal Palace has won ten games in a row."

"Of course I watched it. Not only did I watch the Crystal Palace game, I also watched the match between Manchester United and Arsenal. Hehe, I didn't expect Sir Alex to really help."

"Haha, that's right. Manchester United beat Arsenal and extended Crystal Palace's lead to five points.

"However, Crystal Palace's victory in this game is also suspenseful. They only scored a goal at the end of the game."

"No way, who made the British schedule too abnormal. There is only one day between Crystal Palace's Premier League and UEFA Cup games, and Crystal Palace has to fly back to the UK from Greece. No one can afford it. "

"That's right. It's good to win this game. Didn't you see that at the last moment, Chen Ran transferred both guards to the center forward?"

"I don't ask too much. As long as Crystal Palace can continue to win, I don't think it's that important as to whether they play well or not."

"+1."

"+2."

"."

"+10086."

After playing this Premier League game, Crystal Palace can finally take a breather.

However, for the third round of the League Cup three days later, Chen Ran's attitude was still for training.

Of course it's good to win, but it doesn't matter if you lose and get eliminated.

Anyway, Chen Ran would never let the League Cup match drag down the progress of Crystal Palace on other fronts.

After all, Chen Ran really doesn't like the winning bonus of 50 euros a game.

Therefore, in this away game against Charlton in the League Cup, Chen Ran didn't have any of the main players, and all of them used substitute players and young people.

Even the on-the-spot command of this game was completely handed over to Guardiola by Chen Ran.

Throughout the game, he sat on the bench without saying a word, allowing Guardiola to play to his fullest.

The funny thing is that because Charlton is also a Premier League team now, just like Crystal Palace, after today's League Cup match, they will also play the No. 11 round of the Premier League just one day apart.

Therefore, after seeing that the opponent of this round of the League Cup is Crystal Palace, which is currently ranked first in the Premier League, Charlton's head coach Alan Kirbishley made the decision to give up this League Cup match.

What he sent to Charlton was also a bunch of substitutes and young players.

This is great, substitute against substitute, rookie against rookie.

A good League Cup match was turned into a weak chicken pecking at each other by the coaches of the two teams.

As a result, the Crystal Palace players led by Guardiola eliminated Charlton 2:1.

While advancing to the fourth round of the League Cup, it also brought Chen Ran a winning bonus of 50 euros.

Seeing this result, Chen Ran also couldn't laugh or cry.

Well, it's always good to win.

As Crystal Palace continued to win games, its influence spread rapidly.

Not only did it arouse the enthusiasm of the English media, but it even spilled over to the British financial field.

After all, the City of London is in London, and so is Crystal Palace.

Practitioners in the financial field, regardless of status or age, many are fans.

When they chat after dinner, they will inevitably talk about football, the Premier League, and even the amazing performance of Crystal Palace this season.

As the Crystal Palace has won one game after another, everyone's attitude towards the Crystal Palace has also developed from disdain, suspicion, and surprise to admiration.

And all of this slowly reflected on the bank representatives who were negotiating with Crystal Palace.

"Chen, I have some good news for you, our loan is coming to an end."

It was Stephen who spoke, and he rushed into Chen Ran's office excitedly, his face flushed.

"Really? Didn't you say that we have to wait until we get the Champions Cup next season?"

Chen Ran also looked at Stephen with some surprise, this guy rarely had such an excited expression.

"Haha, isn't it because of your good results in leading the team? In the past, those guys would find faults and find faults, but now they all talk to me about the Crystal Palace game. Their attitudes are a 180-degree turn."

"Oh? Really? Haha, this is really a great thing. Then what are their conditions now?"

"The interest rates offered by these banks are not much different, basically around [-]%. But one problem is that the amount we want to loan is [-] million euros, but none of these banks are willing to give such a high amount."

"How much is the bank that has the most money willing to lend?"

"5000 million euros is still our regular customer Barclays Bank."

"5000 million? That's too different from [-] million."

Chen Ran calculated in his mind that it was only a quarter of the plan, even with the funds promised by the system, it would definitely not be enough.

"Stephen, 5000 million is definitely not enough. It's too far away. In this way, you can talk to these banks one by one to see if they are willing to form a syndicate of banks and jointly lend. Each bank will contribute a part, so that you can get together [-] million The euro should be easy."

"Huh? That's a good idea. Chen, you're still smart."

Stephen patted his thigh, thinking that Chen Ran's idea was good and highly feasible.

"Stephen, if they are willing to jointly lend money, then you can put forward another condition. It is to let these banks be responsible for unblocking the approval procedures for the new stadium. They must have a relationship in this regard, and it is much easier than we can handle it ourselves."

Chen Ran added that these big banks are deeply entrenched, and there is no need to use them for nothing if they have ready-made resources.

"Well, Chen, you are right. Those banks are backed by predators, and their words are much more useful than ours. Don't worry, I will take care of these things."

Stephen promised confidently.

The things that have been busy have finally made substantial progress. How can this not make people feel at ease?
