  Chapter 78 Little Trial

  I don't know if I don't see it, but I'm startled when I see it.

   Wenger was dizzy when he looked at the information about Chen Ran and the Crystal Palace, which was stuffed all over the cabinet.

   When will this be seen?

   What did that little guy from China do?

  There is so much information about him?

   Wenger picked up the above information and opened it. It was the report of the game that Crystal Palace upset Chelsea and the reports of major media after the game.

   The first thing that caught my eye was the wicked front page of the Sun newspaper.

The   Sun newspaper put together a photo of Chen Ran with his arms crossed, smiling and complacent, and a photo of Ranieri, who was drooping and was exiting the stage with a gloomy face.

   ". The Sun is still so immoral."

   Wenger shook his head and smiled bitterly. He and Ferguson were also played by the Sun like this.

   "Just take it as a distraction." Wenger muttered, and then began to read the relevant information about Chen Ran and Crystal Palace one by one.

   However, as more and more materials were read, Wenger's relaxed expression gradually became solemn.

   "This is an eagle about to soar into the sky."

   Wenger muttered to himself.

   Take another look at Crystal Palace's current record in the British Championship. They have 24 wins and four draws and remain unbeaten, far ahead of the second place by nearly 20 points. There is almost no suspense in the Premier League next year.

   This is completely crushing.

   It seems that next year's Premier League will be more lively.

   Wenger suddenly had a bad feeling that it would be more and more difficult to compete for the Premier League championship in the future.

  The strong old rival Manchester United, the Liverpool who want to re-emerge, the upstart Chelsea with the blessing of Russian billionaires, and now a Chinese-led Crystal Palace has emerged.

   Wenger's headache got worse and worse. He wanted to relax, but turned into trouble.

   The FA found in a rare conscience that it did not arrange a match between the two League Cup semi-finals, which finally gave the Crystal Palace players a one-week buffer.

  After recharging their batteries, Crystal Palace ushered in the second leg of the League Cup semi-final against Bolton at home.

   With the first round of the fight, both sides have the most intuitive feeling for each other, and there is no secret at all.

  Chen Ran no longer tried, and directly dispatched the twin tower tactics.

   Home games, make the fans happy.

   striker Tony, striker Crouch

   Left midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo, center midfielder Modric, center midfielder Simeone, right midfielder Ribery

  Left-back Chiellini, centre-back Gareth Southgate, centre-back Vidic, right-back Maicon

   Goalkeeper Cech

   On the opposite side of Bolton, the starting lineup is exactly the same as the previous game.

  Allardyce also has no way, Bolton is a middle and lower team in the Premier League. What can really play is a main lineup, plus a few rotation players such as Djorkaf.

  Because this is already the semi-final of the League Cup, and Crystal Palace also won the first leg away.

   And the League Cup final will be reverted to a tiebreaker, which will still be held at a neutral location.

   So, today at Selhurst Park, the home ground of Crystal Palace, it was packed.

   As soon as the game opened, Bolton's players felt as if the first leg was not over, and Crystal Palace's attack wave after wave went straight to their own goal.

   After Chen Ran figured out Bolton's details, he knew that Allardyce only had a few cards in his hand, and he couldn't play any new tricks back and forth.

   So this time, he ordered the Crystal Palace players not to keep their hands, but to attack directly, suppressing the attack with attack.

  Although there may be some space left for Bolton, as long as Crystal Palace scores more goals than the opponent, everything is not a problem.

   Chen Ran is very confident about this.

   So, the audience who came to the scene of this game are blessed.

  Crystal Palace and Bolton, the two teams opened up and started to attack each other, and they played well and heartily.

  Chen Ran took the initiative to attack, while Allardyce was forced to attack.

  No way, who made Bolton lose the first leg?

   In this game, Bolton can only advance by defeating Crystal Palace, and Allardyce just doesn’t want to attack.

  In the end, after Tony scored a hat-trick and Crouch, Ronaldo and Southgate each scored a goal, Crystal Palace defeated Bolton 6-2 at home.

   eliminated the Premier League team Bolton with a total score of 7:2 and advanced to the League Cup final this season.

  Chen Ran made another 500,000 euros.

  The other semi-final between Arsenal and Middlesbrough is not played until a week later due to a different schedule. So, who is Crystal Palace's final opponent, we will have to wait another week to know.

   But that doesn't matter.

  Because the final of the League Cup will not be played until February 29, there is still a full month left.

   No matter who the final opponent is, Crystal Palace has plenty of time to prepare.

   Chen Ran has now put his mind on the 29th round of the British Championship three days later.

   Anyway, don’t delay making money and upgrading.

  The 29th round of the British Championship, Crystal Palace beat Wimbledon 3:1 at home;

  The 30th round of the British Championship, Crystal Palace beat Sheffield United 3-0 away;

   In the 31st round of the British Championship, Crystal Palace defeated Stoke City with a 6:3 goal at home;

  The 32nd round of the British Championship, Crystal Palace beat Derby County 5:1 away;

  The 33rd round of the British Championship, Crystal Palace beat Gillingham 3-0 at home.

   In the month of waiting for the League Cup final, Crystal Palace used a Champions League five-game winning streak to accumulate 15 points for themselves, and also brought Chen Ran an income of 5 million euros.

   And, as can be seen from the score, Crystal Palace's current attack power is getting stronger and stronger.

  In these five games, Crystal Palace scored no less than three goals in a single game.

   In addition to the opponent's weak strength, the more important reason is that Guardiola has returned to the position of assistant coach and constantly instructs the players to practice the tactics he designed during training.

   After the players gradually mastered this tactic, Chen Ran began to use it in these five matches with weak opponents.

The effect of    is very obvious, although because the players' ability and cooperation are not in place, Crystal Palace will be caught by opponents to break through some loopholes in every game.

   However, Crystal Palace's significantly enhanced ability to break through dense defenses is the most delightful achievement for Chen Ran.

   Finally, high-altitude bombing is not the only trick.

   And Crystal Palace's League Cup final opponents came out a week after they advanced to the final.

  Arsenal beat Middlesbrough 3-1 away to meet Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup final on February 29 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales.

   Chen Ran, who heard the news, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, something seemed to be wrong.
