Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 125 Take stock of the high center and see who you can buy

Chen Ran began to count those outstanding high center forwards in his mind.

Ibrahimovic, 23 years old, 195cm tall.Although this guy is not good at heading, but his comprehensive ability is nothing to say.

However, just this summer, Ibrahimovic just transferred from Ajax to Juventus at a price of 1600 million euros.

In fact, Chen Ran had already considered Ibrahimovic before, but he didn't think that Crystal Palace could snatch Ibrahimovic from Juventus, which is still in full swing, so he could only reluctantly give up in the end.

It was like this in the summer. After the transfer, Ibrahimovic performed well in Juventus. Chen Ran felt that it was even more impossible for Juventus to release him now, so it was better not to make fun of himself.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran silently put an X on Ibrahimovic's name in his heart.

Then, Chen Ran thought of another striker, Klose, who is 26 years old and 184cm tall.

It was also this summer that he had just transferred from Kaiserslautern to Werder Bremen.

In terms of height alone, Klose is not actually a high center forward.But his header is so good that he is often mistaken for a high center forward.

However, the main lineup of Crystal Palace only has Tony as a center forward.Klose's arrival can only be used as a supplement to the twin tower tactics, at most it can be regarded as a main substitute.

As an active German international, Klose, who is in his prime, would he be willing to come to Crystal Palace as a substitute?
Chen Ran asked himself, if it were him, he probably wouldn't want to.

Although Crystal Palace is doing well now, it really has no background at all. It is incomparable with Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​which have their own attractive halos.

Forget it, try it when the time comes.

Chen Ran was not sure about whether he could introduce Klose, so he could only put a big question mark on Klose's name.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Ran thought of Trezeguet again.

This is also an active French international. He is 27 years old this year and has a height of 190cm. He is currently also playing for the Juventus club.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran stopped thinking.

Unless the phone door incident breaks out, it is absolutely impossible for Juventus to release people now.

So, Chen Ran also put a check on Trezeguet's name in his heart.

There are also people like Vieri, and because they are all in the hands of those wealthy clubs, Chen Ran didn't even think about it, because he knew it was impossible.

Back in the office, Chen Ran called the little fat man over again.

"Luis, you recently contacted Werder Bremen striker Klose."

"Chen, are you preparing for Crouch's departure?"

As soon as he heard Chen Ran's words, the little fat man immediately reacted.

"That's right, it can be regarded as a precautionary measure, so as to avoid the worst situation from time to time."

"Okay, leave it to me. But, is it enough to contact only one Klose?"

"I do have several candidates, but they are all in the hands of those wealthy clubs, and it is almost impossible to sell them to us."

"That's true."

The little fat man nodded, coming from a family of brokers, he knew too well the urination of those wealthy families.

Unless they voluntarily gave up on their own initiative, trying to buy someone from them is purely a dream.

"By the way, do you know of any capable high center forwards who are not in the hands of the rich?"

Remembering the background of the little fat man, Chen Ran asked a question.

"There is one person who meets your requirements."

"Oh? Who?"

Chen Ran, who did not expect to have a windfall, immediately became interested.

"Czech high center Jan Kohler currently playing for Borussia Dortmund."

"It's him."

Chen Ran covered his forehead and was speechless for a while, this Louis is really good.

Good guy, replace the 202cm tall Crouch with the 201cm tall Jan Kohler.

The average height of Crystal Palace has not decreased, but has increased.

However, this Jan Kohler does meet all the requirements of a high center forward.

You need height to have height, body to have body, and header to have header.

In addition to being not as flexible as Crouch, the twin-tower tactics he and Tony partnered with may have a better effect than Crouch.

Another point is that Jan Kohler is 31 years old this year, and he is more likely to be willing to come to Crystal Palace as a substitute.

Correspondingly, Dortmund is more likely to release people.

After all, as a 31-year-old veteran, this may be Dortmund's last chance to cash in.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran suddenly discovered that the little fat man's suggestion was quite feasible.

"Louis, the candidate you recommended is good. In this way, both Klose and Jan Kohler will advance at the same time."

"Take Klose as the first choice. If it fails, try to fight for Jan Kohler."

"Understood, leave this matter to me."

After arranging the affairs outside the court, Chen Ran turned his energy back to the court.

After all, operations in all aspects take time, let the bullets fly for a while before talking.

Another point is that on November 11th, the No.20 round of the Premier League will start again, and Crystal Palace will face Newcastle United at home.

The next schedule is not easy, after playing Newcastle United.

On November 11, Crystal Palace will also go on an expedition to Spain to challenge the UEFA Cup opponent Yellow Submarine Villarreal.

Moreover, after playing the UEFA Cup game, there is only one day of rest.

On November 11, Crystal Palace will also rush back to England to participate in the No.28 round of the Premier League and challenge Southampton away.

Due to the intensive schedule, plus the long journey and exhaustion of the two away games, Chen Ran scolded the FA again in his heart.

In this summer, Newcastle United let go of the team's main central defender, Woodgate, who is also an England international, went to Real Madrid and made a fortune.

But they also brought forward Kluivert from Barcelona, ​​on a free transfer, for nothing.

Also bought midfielder Milner from Leeds United, midfielder Butt from Manchester United, and defender Carl from Tottenham Hotspur.

Souness, the head coach of Newcastle United, is also a veteran. This time he is a guest at Selhurst Park, and he keeps his posture very low.

Before the game started, he praised Chen Ran and Crystal Palace when he was interviewed by reporters.

Chen Ran naturally ignored Souness's ecstasy soup, and he still sent out a main lineup using Guardiola's tactics.

On Newcastle United's side, Souness didn't shrink their defense just because they challenged the leader in an away game, which was somewhat beyond Chen Ran's expectations.

Alan Shearer, 34 years old this year, can be said to be a generation of legendary strikers in England.

Although he is older now, his scoring ability is still very impressive.

In the previous three seasons, he scored 23, 17, and 22 goals in the Premier League, which can be said to be a treasure.

Coupled with the dark and tough center Ameobi as his partner, the power of this striker combination cannot be underestimated.

At the beginning, Crystal Palace aggressively pressed the attack.

And Newcastle United did not show any stage fright at all, and did not shrink back because it was an away game, but instead played against Crystal Palace.

This made Chen Ran on the sidelines really excited. He hadn't met such an opponent for a long time, so he could have a good kick today.

On the other side, it was actually a helpless move for Souness to adopt such a tactic.

Because he is very aware of the strength of his team, Newcastle United is a team with strong offense and weak defense.

Souness has carefully studied all the matches of Crystal Palace this season. He found that even strong teams like Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool cannot withstand the attack of Crystal Palace, let alone Newcastle United, which is far inferior to these three teams.

If he plays defensive counterattack like other teams, he feels that it will be a dead end for Newcastle United.

Why not take advantage of your strong offensive strength and fight against Crystal Palace, maybe there will be surprises.

So, Souness was ready to catch Crystal Palace by surprise, and started a confrontation with Crystal Palace.

From this point of view, Souness was successful, because it was indeed beyond Chen Ran's expectations.

However, the advantage of Newcastle United's strong offensive ability depends on who it is compared with.

Whether it's Dyer against Maicon, or Milner against Chiellini, or Parker and Janus against Fabregas and Simeone.

In the entire midfield contest, Newcastle United did not have a position that could take advantage.

That is to say, Alan Shearer, who is on the forward line, has a certain advantage when dealing with the relatively young Thiago Silva.

On the other hand, whether it is Ronaldo or Ribery, Baba Yaluo and Karl are too sudden.

Especially on Baba Yaluo's side, his speed is no problem, and he is not inferior to Ronaldo in the slightest.

But in terms of physical resistance, he was eaten to death by Ronaldo.

As soon as the bodies of the two came into contact, Baba Yaluo was staggered by Ronaldo, and Ronaldo also took the opportunity to break through with the ball.

It was like this once, and it was still like this twice. Soon Fabregas and Modric also discovered this situation, and they kept passing the ball to Ronaldo.

All of a sudden, Newcastle United's defense on the right became a big sieve.

Souness on the sidelines also noticed this problem, and immediately called right forward Milner back to help Baba Yaluo defend.

But as soon as Milner retreated, the entire Newcastle United team's attack on the right was immediately paralyzed.The team's offense suddenly limped a leg.

Chen Ran, who kept an eye on the dynamics on the field, quickly discovered the loopholes of Newcastle United, and he immediately called Maicon, who was closest to him, to his side.

"Maicon, you should inform Chiellini immediately and ask him to step up the attack and help Ronaldo get through the left flank."

"Okay, boss."

Chiellini, who received Chen Ran's latest order, immediately followed Milner and rushed up.

With the support of Chiellini, Fabregas, and Modric, Ronaldo's offensive was not only not contained, but even sharper.

Chen Ran's adjustment made Souness have to let the midfielder Janus lean to the right to help defend.

At this time, the spectators sitting high in the stands could clearly see that the entire formation of Newcastle United had collapsed in half.

The left half is still normal, but the right half is recycled badly.

The offensive posture that Souness planned was suppressed by Crystal Palace in less than 10 minutes.

"It's over, Newcastle United is out of action now."

The media reporters who also found the problem suddenly lamented.

"Exactly. When I first saw Newcastle United daring to play against Crystal Palace, I thought Souness had some powerful tricks, but I didn't expect to be beaten back in 10 minutes."

"Hehe, just because Souness dared to fight against Crystal Palace, this is still very courageous."

"Don't jump to conclusions yet. After all, Newcastle United still has Alan Shearer, so it might be possible to perform a miracle."

"That's true. Southgate is injured and can't play. Crystal Palace's current defensive stability has declined, which is a good opportunity to score goals."

"I hope that Alan Shearer can show his prowess in this game and teach that Chinese man a lesson."

Souness, who also found Newcastle United's formation disjointed, now simply moved Dyer on the left and Parker in midfield.

The cruel reality forced Souness to fight back defensively.

But Newcastle United's two forwards, Alan Shearer and Ameobi, Souness did not let them retreat.

Still staying in the front against Thiago Silva and Vidic, this move also made Chen Ran dare not press the defense too much.

"Cesc, give me the ball!"

Ronaldo, who was having fun at Babayaro, took the initiative to shout at Fabregas.

Hearing Ronaldo's voice, Fabregas also took advantage of the opportunity to pass the ball.

Ronaldo used his body to lean against Baba Yaluo who was close to him, feeling very relaxed, Baba Yaluo couldn't squeeze him at all.

Here in Babayaro, Ronaldo found the feeling of Tony as a center forward.

"Little Luca, two over one!"

Ronaldo yelled Modric's name again, and then immediately passed the ball, then turned around and started to go forward around Babayaro.

No way, because both Modric and Tony's names are Luka.

So when both of them were there, Modric was called Little Luka in the team, and Tony was called Big Luka.

After receiving the ball, Modric passed it directly to Tony in the penalty area without any pause.

Tony, who ran over to catch the ball when he heard Ronaldo's signal, blocked Bramble, who was closely behind him, and then tapped his heel.

At this time, Ronaldo, who had already left Baba Yaluo behind, just moved forward and received the ball accurately.

That's right, this is the two-for-one tactic that Chen Ran designed for them.

It's just that there is an extra Tony in the middle as a bridge.

Now, Ronaldo has faced Newcastle United's goalkeeper Shay, and there is no obstruction.

　There will be a new chapter tonight. The part-time handicapped party has done its best, so don't be too short.
