Chapter 297 Two Geniuses
The 2008 European Cup is on fire!

After the first round of the competition, the winning odds of major European bookmakers have changed again——

Spain and England, who swept their opponents 4:1 in the first round, tied for first place.

The Dutch team, which defeated the Azzurri 3:0 in Italy, ranked second with a slight disadvantage.

The German team ranked third with their strong competitiveness in the competition.

And although the winger corps with Cristiano Ronaldo, the most popular star on the planet in 2008, performed very well in the first round, it seems that public opinion does not have high expectations for them, and they only rank fourth.

In addition, the host Switzerland, Austria and Turkey have become the bottom of the shame team.

The odds on the scorer list remain the same.

In the first round, Spanish striker David Villa's hat-trick made him even more secure in the first place. Michael Owen and Cristiano Ronaldo tied for second with two goals. Germany's Miroslav Klose, Podolski and Spain's Fernando Torres were third.

……

6 month 13 day.

In 2008, the second round of the group stage of the European Cup was restarted.

Geneva Stadium.

Portugal defeated the Czech Republic team 3:1.

C-Ronaldo and Deco flirted with each other once in the first and second half, and in the stoppage time of the whole game, C-Ronaldo successfully turned offside with a single-handed ball to face the Czech Republic.

What the scene did not capture was that there was a middle-aged British man wearing a peaked cap sitting on a certain seat in the south stand of the Geneva Stadium.

Throughout the game, I fixed my eyes on the Portuguese midfielder Moutinho, writing and drawing in the notebook that I carried with me from time to time.

The man's name is Frank Andrey, and he is a full-time scout.

In the FM2008 system, Frank Andrey got the evaluation of [judging the player's potential ability] 20, and [judging the player's current ability] 20. Such terrifying values ​​have reached the peak of the ability that any professional scout on earth can achieve.

But three months ago, Andri was still an ordinary member of Tottenham Hotspur's scouts.

Very very ordinary!
By chance, when Li Tongfan found him in the FM2008 system, and compared Newcastle's two-item data, there was no crooked scout with more than 14, and he launched a "shameless" poaching operation without hesitation.

Getting a scout like this is absolutely necessary.

Because, when Mensao Nan holds the virtual roster of little monsters provided by FM2008, and in reality there is a super-class scout with "smart eyes like torches", the combined power of the two can definitely bring unimaginable profit margins to [Sparkling Red Star] and Newcastle.

Two swords combined, invincible in the world!
So, Andre, this poor middle-aged man who originally received a weekly salary of 800 pounds at the White Hart Lane, ranked at the bottom of all Tottenham football fields, and whose monthly scouting reports were mercilessly ignored by his immediate superiors, was soon dazzled by the happiness of "sweet pies falling from the sky".

When the famous lunatic Li appeared in front of him on that dreamy day three months ago like a shining white angel, and expressed his desire to sign him, Andri agreed without hesitation.

Contract liquidated damages of less than £10!

£4000 and a weekly salary of 5.00% every year!
This is the full price paid by Li Tongfan to get the top player Frank Andry with full double data.

At this time, Andri is like a piece of uncut jade, a group of Maxima who have not met Bole.Li Tongfan's "kindness to know you" made Andri, who was in the most difficult situation at that time, full of gratitude, so this middle-aged man accepted Li Tongfan's next arrangements without hesitation.

So next, after signing a contract to become a member of [Sparkling Red Star] and having his own exclusive agent, Andry's identity is like a little carp jumping over the dragon's gate, making his way to the sky-from the unknown at the end of the White Hart Lane to the head scout at St. James' Park.

Frank Andry has been simmering all his energy to repay Madman Lee for his kindness.

And this opportunity finally came, because the world-renowned European Cup has begun.

Contest to produce demon stars!
The competition produces geniuses!
This is the eternal law of the football world.

Every time the world cup, the European Cup and other top football events, there will always be many super rookies that make people shine like mushrooms after rain.As long as Andre can discover some stars of tomorrow for Newcastle from these newcomers, it will be the best repayment for the kindness of lunatic Li Zhiyu!
And what makes Andre even more excited is that Li Tongfan finally gave him his first inspection task since joining Newcastle yesterday——

Observe the Portuguese midfielder Moutinho and defensive midfielder Veloso.

Moutinho is only 22 years old this year. He is the youngest captain in the history of the Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon. He is regarded as the most potential all-round midfielder in Portugal after Rui Coste and Deco in China. However, he is not well-known in European football at this time.

The evaluation of German player Michel Ballack in FM2008 is: he is the god in this position, while the evaluation of Moutinho is: he can become the number one star on par with Ballack.

As for Veloso, who also plays for Sporting Lisbon, he is the absolute main force of this Portuguese giant like Moutinho.In the position of the midfielder, Veloso has strong running ability, fierce steals, abundant physical strength, and a good kick from the back to shoot long shots. He is ranked among the top ten terrorist and violent midfielders in FM2008.

Li Tongfan paid attention to these two people for a reason.

Before the start of the European Cup, Li Tongfan introduced Ronaldo and others, so that Newcastle has already reserved the strength of the giants such as Manchester United and Chelsea on the front line, but the strength of the midfield is a bit hard to say.

To put it bluntly, it's as bad as scum!
After letting go of the absolute main players such as Joey Barton and James Milner, the Magpies' midfielder is already at the bottom of the Premier League teams.Riquelme and Van der Vaart, whom Li Tongfan was interested in before, now seem to be very difficult to introduce.

Time was running out, and Lao Li absolutely couldn't be that fool who hung himself on a tree, so he quickly shifted his target.

Moutinho and Veloso appeared in Li Tongfan's sight a day ago.

Yesterday, after Lao Li read the data about himself in FM and the progress of the system mission [Glorious Europe Top], he entered some search criteria and spent 2 [character points] after searching the database again with the FM scouting tool, and found these two Portuguese geniuses.

Of course, the search yielded more than Moutinho and Veloso.

But today there happened to be a Portuguese game, so let "Super Scout" Andri come over to take a look.Others follow the European Cup, and there are plenty of opportunities.

To Frank Andre's regret, Portugal did not send Veloso in today's game.

However, Moutinho, who got the chance to play, really made Andri's eyes shine. He has excellent pass control skills and overall situation view, active running, wide coverage, and good long-range shooting ability. Although he lacks confrontation ability and experience a little bit, he is definitely a young player with great potential.

How did Madman Lee find out about this player?
After watching the game, Andri's admiration for Mad Lee rose to another level.

……

In addition to the match between Portugal and the Czech Republic, another match in Group A also started.

The host Switzerland was scored by 32-year-old Del Dijoko in the 19nd minute, but the magical Turk scored two goals in the second half, especially the Turkish midfielder Arda Turan's lore goal in the 92nd minute made the entire St. Jakob Stadium fall into silence.

The host Switzerland is sadly out!

This is the first team to go out of the European finals this year, and one thing is certain: as the second round continues, more teams will go home.

The competition has gradually become cruel.

……

The Three Lions had a day off after their victory over Greece.

Start normal training the next day.

The training venue is still the Urs-Sitzenheim Stadium, but because they share the venue with the Greek team, they can only get half a day of training time every day, and the remaining half day goes back to Duke Semensis Manor for tactical explanations and analysis of opponents.

On the morning of June 6th, in order, it was the time for the England team to use the Erles-Siezenheim Stadium.

At 9:00, when the players and coaching staff of the Three Lions came to the stadium with a little morning fog according to the prescribed time, they were surprised to find that not only the owner Li Tongfan and assistant coach Venables were waiting for them on the field, but also four or five Chinese.

Clap clap clap!

Li Tongfan clapped his hands: "Hey guys, let me introduce some special guests to you..."

Lao Li turned around and pointed to Li Bing and others behind him, and introduced with a smile: "These gentlemen are representatives of fans and reporters from China. They will visit your training situation this morning!"

"Okay, now get active and start warming up!"

These few Chinese are exactly Li Bing and his party.

When the banquet was about to end last night, Li Bing hesitated for a long time and finally made his request, but he didn't expect Madman Li to agree.During the meeting, several CCTV reporters including Zuo Xiaoqing also wanted to take the opportunity to conduct an exclusive interview with the England team, and Li Tongfan did not refuse.

……

During the whole morning training, Zuo Xiaoqing and other reporters were busy filming the training process of the England stars, and most of the time the camera was aimed at Li Tongfan who was standing on the sidelines.

To be honest, for the current Chinese fans, Lao Li's influence has far surpassed superstars such as David Beckham and Irving, and has reached the level of raising his arms and making the Chinese crazy, so the reporters also pay attention to the importance of shooting.

Li Bing, on the other hand, has been closely following Li Tongfan.

The young marshal of the Chinese Super League carried a pen and paper with him, like a serious and responsible secretary, carefully recording everything he observed.
