Chapter 47

  It is still 2003 after all. Although the Internet has emerged, print media and TV are still the mainstream.

  The next day, about the match between Crystal Palace and Millwall, appeared in the major media.

   "The Championship reappears maliciously, and Crystal Palace's Guardiola fractures his ankle."

   "Due to a violent foul by Dennis Wise, a massive fight between Millwall and Crystal Palace players was triggered."

   "It's Dennis Wise again, why is he always the one who gets in trouble?"

   "In the case of a serious injury to the core of the midfield, Crystal Palace staged a big comeback and won five consecutive victories."

   "Although Crystal Palace won the game, they also paid a heavy price for losing the core of the midfield. The prospects for this season are not optimistic."

   "Crystal Palace owner and head coach Chen Ran took aim at the FA after the game. It is a shame for English football to let someone like Dennis Wise participate in the game."

   "Crystal Palace boss Chen Ran openly claimed that the reason why England could not win the championship is because the FA's punishment for malicious wounding is too light."

   "Crystal Palace owner Chen Ran launched a reward survey called 'the talented players who have appeared around you', and participants have the opportunity to receive a reward of 1,000 euros."

   "Crystal Palace owner Chen Ran wants to make a documentary to record those geniuses who have been maliciously injured and ruined their football career."

   That's right, Chen Ran once again captured the pages of all English media covering football.

  What happened during the game, as well as the press conference after the game, were all written about by the media.

   Especially Chen Ran's amazing remarks aroused huge controversy.

   Some media support it, and more media oppose it.

   For a while, they quarreled first.

   Chen Ran's questionnaire was also known by many people.

   In addition to the 1000 euro bonus he offered, it attracted countless people to participate.

   As a result, Crystal Palace's website was overwhelmed, and it was temporarily paralyzed.

   "Chen, it looks like your plan is going well."

  Stephen sighed while sending someone to deal with the website.

   "The key is to see how the FA will react. It's hard to say now, let's do our own thing first."

   "Yeah, those people in the FA are used to being masters, and it's hard to change."

   "Then let the fire burn more vigorously, and when the fire burns to their buttocks, let's see if they can change it."

  Chen Ran sneered, he still has his back. Don't worry, take your time.

   "By the way, did the Sky TV station that asked you to contact have a reply?"

   "Not yet, maybe they are a little hesitant. After all, your proposal will make them offend the FA. It is estimated that they are still weighing it now."

  Stephen hesitated for a while, but still asked:

   "Chen, do you really think Sky TV will cooperate with you to make this documentary?"

   "Why not? This is a very topical project, and it is impossible for Sky TV not to know about it."

   "But aren't they worried about offending the FA?"

"What's there to worry about? Sky TV is the big sponsor of the FA. Without Sky TV, the FA can't receive such a high broadcast fee. Besides, there are fewer malicious and hurtful fouls on the pitch. The rate is also good, isn't it?"

   "Well, I hope you're right."

   After arranging his plan of "killing and killing hearts", Chen Ran was finally able to put his energy back on the team.

   He called Simone and Southgate to the office. The usual group of four was missing one now. Looking at the vacant seat, Chen Ran couldn't help feeling a little sad.

   "Gareth, Diego, now that Josep is away, the team needs the two of you to worry more."

   "I'm fine, boss."

"Me too."

Chen Ran nodded and continued: "The next game is the League Cup game against Torquay United. Diego is suspended and cannot play. Gareth, you will temporarily mention the position of the midfielder and partner with Yaya Toure. ."

   "Okay, boss. But who's going to take my place at center back?"

   "How are Thiago Silva and Pepe doing recently?"

   "Both are good. However, although they are both Brazilians, they have completely different personalities. Thiago Silva is more stable, while Pepe is more passionate."

   "Understood, then let Thiago Silva replace your central defender."

   After saying that, Chen Ran turned to look at Simone again.

   "Diego, how are the five new Spanish lads?"

   "Not bad, you can see that they are all good players. Especially that Cesc Fabregas, Josep especially appreciates."

"Well, Josep is injured now, you speak Spanish, take care of them when you have time. Especially that Cesc Fabregas, pay attention, probably I will play him soon ."

   "What? Boss, Cesc Fabregas is only 16 years old. Is it too urgent to let him play an official game now?"

  Simeone was taken aback for a moment, some did not expect Chen Ran to arrange this.

   "No way. After Josep was injured, there was a shortage of people who could control the rhythm in the lower back. You and Gareth are not good at it, and Yaya Toure is too young to take on this important task for the time being."

   "So Fabregas?"

   "Well, don't look at him at the age of 16. In fact, he is very precocious. After that, I will arrange for him to come off the bench at an appropriate time. If you don't believe me, you can see his performance after playing."

   After the small meeting, Chen Ran brought the two to the training ground and walked in front of the team members.

   Usually three assistant coaches lead the team for training. Today, there is one less person, not only Chen Ran, but even the team members are not used to it.

   "Everyone must have known about Josep's injury. He will temporarily leave us for a long time to come."

   "Josep is not only our assistant coach, but also our midfield core. His departure will cause a great loss to our attacking organization."

   "When he was here, we were at the top of the league. When he comes back, if our ranking falls, will you accept it?"

"cannot!"

"no way!"

   "First is ours!"

   Watching the team members answering firmly one by one, Chen Ran nodded with satisfaction, and he was in a good mood.

   "Very good. Since everyone has this confidence, in the next game, each of you needs to pay more to make up for the loss caused by Josep's absence. Can you do it?"

"I'm OK!"

"Me too!"

   "Don't worry, boss!"

  Chen Ran has a good effect on boosting the morale of the players, at least in training, everyone is more serious and devoted.

After the training of the first team, Chen Ran went to the training ground of the youth team.

   There is a team game going on here, and he found Tuchel, the youth training director who was supervising, on the sidelines.
