Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 194
John Phelan is not a top goalkeeper, of course he can't hold every shot of Ronaldo firmly.

Therefore, Jan Kohler, Alves and Evra, who had received instructions from Chen Ran before the game, now had a chance to show their talents.

They had ambushed in Wigan Athletic's restricted area early on. As soon as Ronaldo took a shot, they would divide into front, middle and back and start rushing towards Wigan Athletic's goal.

The players of Wigan Athletic also put their main energy on restricting Ronaldo.

No way, who made Ronaldo's performance in the UEFA Champions League two days ago too amazing. Wigan Athletic's head coach Coleman also focused on explaining that his players should focus on marking Ronaldo before the game.

This time, Jan Kohler, Alves and Evra took advantage of it.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Before the first half of the game was over, these three guys each scored a goal with supplementary shots.

Although Wigan Athletic later strengthened the protection of the two penalty kicks, it was too late.

In the end, Crystal Palace easily defeated Wigan Athletic 3:1 at home with these three goals.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for winning the game and discovering a teenager with football talent."

"Huh? The system hasn't issued this reward for a while."

Name: Zhang Fan

Age: 10 years old

Potential (PA): 160
Competency (CA): Vacant
Position: to be determined (suggested training direction: midfield organizer)
Now Tuchel has returned to the UK, and the selection of Huaguo's youth training has been handed over to his assistant.

After all, Tuchel is the youth training director of the Crystal Palace. The Crystal Palace and all levels of echelons need him to manage, so it is impossible for him to stay in China for a long time.

This little guy named "Zhang Fan" seems to have been discovered by Tuchel's assistant, and a systematically formulated training plan will be sent to him at that time.

In other Premier League games this round, there was another strong dialogue, that is, Arsenal reversed Liverpool 2:1 at Anfield, which can be regarded as doing their best for the Champions League next season.

Chelsea defeated Tottenham Hotspur 2:1 at home, and continued to maintain the pressure on Crystal Palace. Manchester United easily won Newcastle United at Old Trafford.

After the No.20 nine rounds of the Premier League, Crystal Palace topped the standings with 26 wins, three draws and 81 points.

Chelsea are next with 76 points, Manchester United are third with 58 points, Liverpool are fourth with 49 points, Tottenham Hotspur are fifth with 47 points and Arsenal are sixth with [-] points.

Turin, Italy, after Juventus were eliminated from the Champions League by Crystal Palace in the middle of the week, they beat Cagliari 4-0 in Serie A on the weekend, which can be considered a breath of bad breath.

The next day, Raiola approached Ibrahimovic.

"How are you, Zlatan? Are you feeling better now?"

Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored twice against Cagliari at the weekend and performed well.

"Mino, I'm not that fragile. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Zlatan Ibrahimovic gave Raiola a speechless stare.

"It's nothing, just to ask how you feel about Crystal Palace?"

Raiola asked with a smile.

This guy has a naive smile, which is especially easy to make people feel good about.

"The strength is very strong, and there are guys with good skills. Especially their Huaguo head coach, who is very powerful."

"So now it seems that you have no objection to the transfer to Crystal Palace?"

Raiola asked immediately.

In fact, Raiola hoped that Ibrahimovic could transfer to Crystal Palace before, but Ibrahimovic himself did not have much interest in this.

At this stage, although everyone agrees that the Premier League is on the rise, Serie A is no longer as brilliant as the 90s of the last century.

But before the outbreak of the "Phonegate" incident, the Serie A teams represented by AC Milan, Juventus and Inter Milan were still one of the top teams in world football.

The attraction of these giant clubs to stars is still not comparable to that of the Premier League teams.

Even a veteran Premier League giant like Manchester United is not an opponent, let alone an upstart like Crystal Palace.

Therefore, in Zlatan Ibrahimovic's heart, even if he wants to leave Juventus, his first choice is definitely not Crystal Palace.

However, in the eyes of Raiola, a shrewd fat man, the rising Premier League is a huge gold mine to be developed.

And Crystal Palace, a newly rising team in the Premier League, is the diamond buried in this gold mine.

Therefore, he desperately wanted to persuade Ibrahimovic to transfer to Crystal Palace, so that he could occupy a place in the big gold mine of the Premier League in time.

"It depends on whether Crystal Palace has the ability to let Juventus let me go. Mino, you know what kind of person Moji is."

When Ibrahimovic mentioned the name of the person he least wanted to hear, Raiola couldn't help but change his face.

"Zlatan, the Chinese from Crystal Palace promised me that he would let Juventus let you go."

"You mean Chen Ran? Why did he do this? Spend money? Juventus is not Arsenal."

Good things don't go out, bad things pass thousands of miles.

Now in European football, almost everyone knows that Arsenal is short of money because of the need to build a new stadium.

"This...that Chinese man seems to know a lot about Juventus, and he also vaguely revealed that this summer, Moggi may no longer be the general manager of Juventus."

"What? You mean that Chen Ran knows about Juventus?"

Hearing Raiola's words, Ibrahimovic was completely shocked.

"Yes. Besides, he may know something we don't know, so I dare to conclude that Moji will step down this summer."

"That's unreasonable. That Chen Ran is from China, and Crystal Palace is also an English team. He doesn't seem to have anything to do with Italian football."

Ibrahimovic really couldn't figure out how Chen Ran knew so much about Italian football.

"I don't know. However, whether what Chen Ran said is true or not will become clear in a few months. If he was bragging before, then you will naturally not join Crystal Palace, and you have nothing to lose."

"However, if what he said is true. Then it means that something big is going to happen to Juventus. Zlatan, will you still object to joining Crystal Palace at that time?"

As he spoke, Raiola also became serious.

"If something really happens to Juventus, then I will definitely not stay here. Mino, then do what you say."

"Okay. Zlatan, don't worry, I will take care of everything for you, and I won't let you suffer."

Seeing that Ibrahimovic was finally persuaded, Raiola finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now everything is ready, just waiting for something to happen to Juventus.

London, Crystal Palace Club.

Chen Ran and his assistants gathered in front of the TV in the restaurant of the club again.

That's right, the draw for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League is about to begin again.

Last time, after Crystal Palace drew Real Madrid, Chen Ran quietly used the "re-draw card".

However, the power of the system was ultimately defeated by his non-chieftain attribute.

Changing from Real Madrid to Juventus, at this stage, Chen Ran doesn't feel much better.

Therefore, today's draw Chen Ran intends to resign himself to fate, and UEFA can draw as it pleases.

Anyway, Crystal Palace's goal is to win the Champions League. In the end, they still have to meet such an old and strong team, and they can't avoid it.

However, the truth is so ruthless.

When the lucky draw guests read Crystal Palace's name, there was a chorus of abuse in the club restaurant.

Because, Crystal Palace's opponent this time turned out to be Real Madrid again.

Is this special meow because Yuanjialu is narrow?

Looking at the top eight matches on the TV screen, Chen Ran was completely speechless.

Imperialism will never die.

Do you want to use the "re-draw card"?

Chen Ran, who had already made up his mind, was a little shaken at this moment.

Check out the other teams on the list: Barcelona, ​​AC Milan, Inter Milan.
Forget it, accept your fate.

With my non-chieftain attributes, even if I use the "re-draw card", maybe I change myself to a team like Barcelona, ​​what's the point?
"Boss, what should I do now?"

Guardiola, who was sitting next to Chen Ran, was also surprised. What kind of luck is this?
Twice draws, both times to Real Madrid.

Others don't know, but Guardiola, who was born in Barcelona, ​​knows the strength of Real Madrid very well.

Although compared with the previous two years, Real Madrid is now a bit downhill.

But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, just looking at the names of the stars in their team is enough to scare people.

"What should we do? Isn't it Real Madrid? We have already won AC Milan, eliminated Juventus, and now send Real Madrid home."

"Yes, the boss is right. Isn't it Real Madrid? It's fine if we didn't meet our Crystal Palace. Now that we have met, then kill it!"

Southgate, Chen Ran's supporter, stood up in time again, and he was duty-bound to share the boss's worries.

"That's right, kill Real Madrid!"

"Get rid of Real Madrid!"

Because the result of the lottery was not very good, Chen Ran was still a little depressed when he returned home, and then Cheryl noticed it.

"Honey, what's the matter? Did you encounter any unhappy things today?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the result of the UEFA Champions League draw today was not very good. Crystal Palace once again drew Real Madrid."

"Real Madrid? The team Beckham plays for?"

"That's right, why? You also know this team?"

Chen Ran glanced at Cheryl in surprise. She was not interested in football, and they never talked about football at home.

"Oh, the main reason is that I met Victoria when I participated in an event two days ago, and I heard her chatting about Real Madrid."

"Victoria? You mean Beckham's wife?"

"Yeah, she came back from Spain to participate in a business event this time. We chatted quite well, and then I heard her complain a lot about Real Madrid."

"Oh? What did she complain about, tell me."

At this moment, Chen Ran immediately became interested, and hugged Cheryl in his arms, and the two of them nestled on the sofa and chatted about the gossip that Cheryl had heard.

Both Victoria and Cheryl debuted in women's groups, and the other half are football practitioners, so they have a common language with each other.

Besides, the Spaniards all speak Spanish, and Victoria has always been a bit out of place there, so she runs to England whenever she gets the chance.

This time the two participated in a business event together, and they hit it off.

"The main reason is to complain about the serious gang formation in the Real Madrid club and the serious internal fighting. Beckham is not happy staying there and wants to transfer and leave."

Cheryl was petite, curled up in Chen Ran's arms, and said while listening to Chen Ran's heartbeat.

"Why would she talk to you about this? Don't you women usually talk about clothes, bags, cosmetics and the like?"

Although Chen Ran didn't understand what the women usually talked about, he was sure it wasn't football.

"I don't know. Actually, I haven't met Victoria before. When I debuted, the Spice Girls had disbanded, and she married Beckham."

"This time, we only got to know each other after being introduced by the organizer. I didn't expect Victoria to be so enthusiastic, and she pulled me to talk a lot. Maybe it's because she didn't have many people to chat with in Spain, so she got bored."

"She took the initiative to chat with you?"

Chen Ran seemed to have discovered something unusual.

"Yeah, what's the matter? Honey, what's the problem?"

Cheryl raised her head from Chen Ran's chest, and looked at Chen Ran with big flickering eyes.

"Hehe, there's no problem. Honey, you can contact Victoria tomorrow and tell her that I know what she means. The gate of the Crystal Palace will always be open to Beckham."

"Honey, do you mean that Beckham wants to join your Crystal Palace?"

"Not necessarily, but this possibility cannot be ruled out. Perhaps, this is just a temptation by Victoria, and does not represent what Beckham himself means. As for whether it is true, it depends on whether Beckham will have a further action."

"I see. No wonder Victoria was so enthusiastic that day. I really thought I made a good friend."

"Haha, little fool. Victoria's message for Beckham will not affect your relationship with her. You are my Chen Ran's woman. There will only be more and more things like this in the future. You have to adapt as soon as possible." Okay."

Chen Ran smiled and hugged Cheryl even tighter, and gently stroked her soft hair with his hands.

How can there be a simple woman who can gain a foothold in the entertainment industry?

It's nothing more than the fact that the man who hasn't adapted to her is the owner of a newly rising wealthy club.

Even a senior in the entertainment industry like Victoria is now currying favor with Cheryl. It seems that the status of the Crystal Palace Club in the hearts of these top stars has indeed been greatly improved.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran was in a good mood.

He picked up Cheryl and walked straight to the bedroom.
