Football Feast, Starting From the Acquisition of European Clubs: Chapter 170 It\'s a problem that the players are too good.

  Chapter 170 It's also a trouble if the players are too good

   Spain, Real Madrid Club, President's Office.

   "What do you think about this Crystal Palace?"

  Real Madrid president Florentino put down the Aspen newspaper in his hand and looked up at Real Madrid vice-president and sports manager Butragueno, head coach Lucenberg and technical director Sacchi.

   Since Florentino was elected president of Real Madrid, his superstar strategy has been a huge success.

  However, extremes turn the tide. Since last season, the club has begun to show a decline.

  Especially inside the team, because there are too many superstars, they form gangs, resulting in insufficient team cohesion and a sharp drop in combat effectiveness.

   First, Camacho resigned angrily because he could not control the locker room, and the assistant coach Raymond, who replaced him, resigned after only three months.

   In the end, Florentino invited the former Brazil national team coach Lusenberg to stabilize the situation. But the league title eventually fell to the nemesis of Barcelona.

  Florentino also knew that there was a big problem within the team, but he obviously did not intend to give up his superstar strategy.

   Just this summer, he also spent a lot of money to introduce the Brazilian genius Robinho, as well as Baptista, Ramos, Pablo Garcia, Diogo and other stars.

   And now, Crystal Palace can beat AC Milan in the Champions League. This also made Florentino's eyes, for the first time, turn to this sudden team.

   "Mr. Chairman, the Crystal Palace's combat effectiveness is still very strong. Especially their defensive ability is very tenacious. AC Milan failed to score the whole game, and they were attacked instead."

   Butragueno, Lusenberg and Sacchi looked at each other, and finally Lusenberg stood up and answered Florentino's question.

   "What I care about is not whether their defense is tenacious. What I care about is whether they have players worthy of our introduction?"

  Florentino, in order to save Real Madrid's current slump, has been a little sick to the doctor. Seeing where there are good players, I want to dig them into my own team.

   "Mr. Chairman, according to the information collected, there are still many very talented players in the Crystal Palace team. And more importantly, they are generally very young."

   As the technical director, Saki is still very attentive.

   He is a coach who has twice led AC Milan to win the European Champions Cup. After the match between Crystal Palace and AC Milan, he asked some old friends about the specific process of the match.

   After getting the feedback that Crystal Palace's strength was unexpectedly strong, he immediately ordered his subordinates to start collecting various detailed information about Crystal Palace.

   In fact, Sacchi and others have the same mentality as Ancelotti.

   For those who have stayed in the giant clubs all the year round, a sudden rise of teams like Crystal Palace will pop up one or two every three or five times, but they are often short-lived.

   So as long as it's not a team in the league of their own club, they usually don't take it too seriously.

   However, if this team can perform well in the Champions League, it is another matter.

   "Oh? Arigo, please elaborate."

   Hearing Sacchi's introduction, Florentino immediately became interested.

   The current situation of the Real Madrid club, Florentino is very clear, the root of the problem lies in these superstars.

   One is that these guys fight fiercely in gangs, and the other is that as their age increases, their strength inevitably declines.

  The best way is to find a group of outstanding, younger stars to replace the current group of people.

   But the stars who meet this condition are often in the hands of other giant clubs. How can they sell to Real Madrid? Isn't that the enemy?

   Now, hearing Sacchi's report, Florentino feels as if he has discovered a gold mine that can completely solve Real Madrid's problems.

   "Okay, Mr. Chairman."

  Saki immediately made a phone call and asked his subordinates to send a thick stack of Crystal Palace players' information.

   "Mr. Chairman, according to my analysis, Crystal Palace has very good players whether in striker, midfield, defence or goalkeeper."

  Sacchi continued to introduce, and distributed the materials to Florentino, Butragueno and Lusenberg.

   "And, considering their age, there are some players among them that can achieve in the future, no worse than these superstars in our team now."

   "So, I suggest that if there is a chance, we must introduce their main players from Crystal Palace at all costs. These people can form a new 'Galaxy Battleship' in the future."

   "Cough, Mr. Saki, isn't your evaluation a little too high?"

   Hearing that Sacchi gave such a high evaluation to the Crystal Palace players, Rusenberg was a little unconvinced.

   Moreover, the reason why Lusenberg was able to stabilize Real Madrid was entirely because he had the support of fellow Brazilians Ronaldo and Robert Carlos.

   Coupled with the newly joined Robinho and Baptista in the summer, the Brazilian Gang has become the second largest force in Real Madrid after the Spanish Gang.

   Now Saki proposes to introduce players from Crystal Palace to form a new "Galaxy Battleship". Isn't this to change his basic plan?

  Lusenberg knows that President Florentino is very dissatisfied with Real Madrid's current civil unrest, but if he loses the support of his Brazilian players, his position as head coach will also be unstable.

  So, in any case, Lusenberg must safeguard the interests of his fellow Brazilians in Real Madrid.

  As Lusenberg questioned, Florentino and Butragueno also turned to look at Sacchi. Apparently, they also felt that Saki's assessment was a bit exaggerated.

   You must know that Real Madrid, now known as the "Galaxy Battleship", took Florentino several years and hundreds of millions of euros to form.

   Every star here was dug by Florentino at a high price.

   Now, according to Sacchi’s meaning, there are many such players in the Crystal Palace team that suddenly appeared. What's wrong with Florentino?

   "Mr. Chairman, I can use my reputation to guarantee that the comments I just made about the Crystal Palace players are true."

  Sacchi ignored Lusenberg, looked directly at Florentino, and said with a serious expression.

   "Well, I see. Arigo, I'll consider your suggestion carefully."

   Seeing Sacchi's serious look, Florentino couldn't help but be cautious.

   After the three left, Florentino called Butragueno back alone.

   "Emilio, what do you think of Arigo's suggestion?"

  As his confidant and right-hand man, Florentino wanted to hear his opinion alone.

   "Mr. Chairman, although I also think that Mr. Sacchi's evaluation is a bit exaggerated. But Crystal Palace's players must be strong, otherwise they would not be able to beat AC Milan at the San Siro Stadium."

   "Well, it makes sense. Then do you think we need to follow Arrigo's suggestion and introduce players from Crystal Palace?"

"Mr Chairman, I think we can send scouts to follow up on the Crystal Palace players first. See if they are as good as Mr Sacchi said. If the results of the scouting test prove Mr Sacchi's point, then It's not too late for us to take action."

   "Well, Emilio, you have a good idea, this matter is left to you. Be careful, don't let Lusenberg know about this matter, he is too close to those Brazilian players."

   "You can rest assured, Mr. Chairman, I will take care of confidentiality."

   Also in Spain, but this time at FC Barcelona.

   Barcelona's president, Laporta, called Fernandez, his sports manager in charge of transfer affairs, to his office.

   "Have you watched the Champions League match between Robert, Crystal Palace and AC Milan?"

   "Look, Mr. Chairman, what are your orders?"

   "How do you evaluate the performance of this Crystal Palace team?"

   "Although the sidelines are very passive, they were able to defeat AC Milan away, which shows that the fighting power of this Crystal Palace team is stronger than we expected."

   "Well, my opinion is the same. Robert, in addition to the scouts that have been sent to track Ronaldo, you should send two more scouts. Include all the main players of Crystal Palace into the scope of inspection."

   "Okay, Mr. Chairman. However, Crystal Palace just renewed their contracts with these main players in the summer. We may not be able to buy these players in a short time."

   "Robert, you have to remember one thing. As long as the price is high enough, there is no player in this world that cannot be bought."

   "Zidane, Figo, Ronaldo, Beckham, etc., aren't they bought by Real Madrid? As long as the target is good enough, maybe, we should also refer to Real Madrid's practice."

  Crystal Palace's upset victory over AC Milan in the Champions League has not only attracted widespread attention in European football. Even in the country that is thousands of miles away, it has caused an uproar.

   Benefiting from the earliest broadcast of Serie A in China, the influence of these Italian giants in the country is very amazing.

   And AC Milan in its peak period is one of the best among them.

   A Champions League group match completely detonated the Crystal Palace post.

   "I'm going, Chen Ran is so awesome, Crystal Palace beat AC Milan at San Siro? Why do I feel like I'm dreaming."

   "Upstairs, you'll know if you're dreaming if you slap yourself twice."

   "Haha, I also think it's a little unreal. Is Crystal Palace so fierce? It feels like reading a novel."

   "I watched the game. Crystal Palace is actually not as strong as AC Milan, but Chen Ran's tactical adjustment ability is too good."

"That's right. The goal was a long pass from Crystal Palace's midfielder directly into AC Milan's penalty area. How could anyone have played this way before? I guess AC Milan's defenders were stunned. That's why Crystal Palace made a sneak attack. ."

   "What the above said makes sense. Chen Ran's move was a surprise victory, no one would have imagined it. The AC Milan defender's reaction was half a beat, which is understandable."

   "That's right, I guess Ancelotti is depressed right now, this kid Chen Ran doesn't play cards at all."

   "Haha, Chen Ran is called 'Fisting to kill the old master'."

   After finishing the Champions League group match against AC Milan, Chen Ran flew back to London with the team overnight.

  Because two days later, they will usher in the eighth round of the Premier League, and Crystal Palace will host West Ham United.

   Chen Ran rotated most of the main players due to too much consumption in the match against AC Milan.

   Fortunately, the strength of West Ham United is not strong. Even if Crystal Palace played as a substitute, in the end, with a header from Thiago Silva, they won 1:0.

When    got three points, the system once again rewarded Chen Ran with a first-class harvest card.

   In the other games in the eighth round, there is also a highlight, that is, Liverpool vs. Chelsea at Anfield.

   And Liverpool, also continued the performance of the layman in the civil war.

   In this season's Champions League grouping, Liverpool and Chelsea are in the same group.

  September 29th, in the Champions League group stage, Liverpool drew Chelsea 0-0 at home;

   And just three days later, in the eighth round of the Premier League, also at Anfield, Liverpool was beaten 4:1 by Chelsea.

   The same team, the same venue, only three days apart, how could the contrast be so great?

   Liverpool's performance is really speechless.

  The other two strong, Manchester United beat Fulham 3:2 away, Arsenal beat Birmingham 1:0 at home. Not long after the league started, Liverpool began to fall behind.

  Crystal Palace won three games a week, especially the away victory over AC Milan, which made Chen Ran in a very good mood.

   There will be no Champions Cup game next week, so Chen Ran originally thought that he could relax a little.

  However, the arrival of little fat Louis completely ruined his good mood.

   "Chen, there is news in the circle recently that someone saw a lot of scouts from European giants clubs in London."

   "What do you mean? You mean they came for our Crystal Palace?"

  Chen Ran is now very sensitive to the movements of these giant clubs.

   "It's not certain, but I really can't think of a club other than us that would attract these scouts to London."

   "Is it impossible for Arsenal and Chelsea?"

   "Arsenal and Chelsea have a lot of outstanding players, but these players are not too young. After capturing a lot of game videos, do you still need to send scouts to inspect them?"

   "Well, what you said makes sense."

   Little Fatty is worthy of being from a family of brokers, and he knows these things very well.

   Chen Ran was also upset when he heard it, these giant clubs were like flies.

  You thought you were driving away, but it turned around and came back.

  It is estimated that Crystal Palace's victory over AC Milan this time was too sensational, and they were recruited again.

  It is also a trouble if the players are too good.
