Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 460 List Dispute
Time is a butcher's knife, this sentence is even more cruel to athletes.

As time goes by, some players inevitably start to decline.

Compared with the Brazil team that won the America's Cup in 2011, Chen Ran's lineup for the Brazil team that will participate in the 2014 World Cup has changed a lot.

Since Chen Ran had preemptively let Diego Costa represent Brazil in the official competition as early as the 2011 America's Cup, so Diego Costa did not represent Spain in this World Cup this time as he did in his previous life.

However, Pato, like his previous life, did not escape the murderous hands of the boss's daughter Barbara. After being drained, his condition plummeted. Naturally, Chen Ran would not include him in Brazil's squad for the World Cup.

Kaka is 32 years old this year. Although he has been taken care of by Chen Ran in this life and has been playing for the Crystal Palace, he did not die prematurely due to injuries like in his previous life.

But as a player who regards high-speed dribbling breakthroughs as his housekeeping skill, Kaka's competitive level will inevitably decline as his physical function declines.

Now in the Crystal Palace team, he has lost his position as the main midfielder and has started to serve as a substitute for young players.

Nevertheless, Chen Ran still put Kaka into the 23-man roster of the Brazil team and still appointed him as the captain of the Brazil team.

Maicon is also in a similar situation. At the age of 33 this year, his competitive level has declined significantly. In the Crystal Palace team, he has completely given up the main right back position to Alves.

Even Guardiola greeted Chen Ran, and Maicon was no longer in Crystal Palace's squad for next season.

Chen Ran recruited Maicon into the 23-man roster in order to give Maicon the opportunity to leave the national team with the honor of the World Cup champion.

Anyway, with Alves playing Brazil's main right back, Maicon doesn't have many chances to play.

In the past three years, many familiar names from previous lives began to enter Chen Ran's vision.

Like "Hulk" Hulk, although he does not play in the five major leagues, but as an alternative Brazilian striker, Chen Ran is ready to use Hulk's strong body to attack the opponent's defense when necessary.

The "Little Golden Man" Oscar, who is just 23 years old this year, has quickly become the core midfielder of the team since he joined Chelsea last season, performing well.

Although Chelsea and Crystal Palace are direct rivals, Chen Ran put the young Oscar in Brazil's 23-man squad.

The same thing happened to Coutinho, who was just 22 years old.

After joining Liverpool last season, Coutinho quickly became the core of the team's offense.

Chen Ran did not treat Liverpool differently because they are direct competitors of Crystal Palace. He also brought Coutinho to the World Cup in Brazil.

As for Casemiro, it was Chen Ran who ordered the fat guy Luis to bring him from Sao Paulo, Brazil, to the Crystal Palace Club two years ago before Real Madrid made a move.

Among Real Madrid's three midfielders, Modric and Toni Kroos have already joined Crystal Palace in advance.Wouldn't it be a pity if "Fat Tiger" Casemiro was missing?
In terms of defense, although Dante is 31 years old, he is still a rookie in the national team.

Chen Ran didn't have a deep impression of him, but because this guy is now Bayern Munich's main central defender, Dante was recruited into the national team for the first time in the friendly match between Brazil and England last year.

Anyway, as a substitute for Thiago Silva and David Luiz, the main central defenders, Chen Ran also put him in Brazil's squad for this World Cup when there was no other better choice.

The situation of Marchinhos is somewhat special.

In his previous life, he was bought by Paris Saint-Germain for 20 million euros when he was under 3140 years old, and then he has been playing for Paris Saint-Germain until Chen Ran was reborn. Captain of Paris.

In this life, due to the appearance of Chen Ran, the Qataris did not buy Paris Saint-Germain, but bought Liverpool.

What surprised Chen Ran was that the team had changed, but Marquinhos was still brought to Liverpool by the Qataris.

Moreover, in the more competitive Premier League, the Liverpool club still entrusts Marquinhos with important tasks.

In the past 2013-2014 season, Marquinhos, who was not yet 20 years old, has represented Liverpool Club in a total of 32 games at home and abroad, and scored five goals as a central defender.

This time, Marchinhos aroused Chen Ran's strong interest.

So, even though this kid just turned 20 years old this year, Chen Ran resolutely decided to take him to participate in this World Cup in Brazil.

Still the same sentence, anyway, as a substitute, it is like taking a child to see the world.

Alisson, the Brazilian goalkeeper, was famous all over the world before Chen Ran was reborn.

But now, under the age of 22, he is just a substitute goalkeeper for the Recife Sports Club in Brazil.

Chen Ran's inclusion of him in Brazil's 23-man squad for the World Cup has aroused considerable controversy in Brazilian football.

Even in Brazil, many people don't even know who Alisson is if they are not fans of Recife Sports Club.

All of a sudden, the news that Alisson was related to the family was widely spread.

In fact, this rumor cannot be said to be completely unreasonable.

Because, under Chen Ran's guidance, Fatty Luis' elder brother signed Alisson to his own agency early on, and brought him to Recife Sports Club, the stronghold of the Galaxy Football Group in Brazil.

From this perspective, Alisson is now a player in Chen Ran's team.

When the reporter asked Chen Ran whether he was suspected of favoritism and fraud in relation to Alisson's matter at the Brazil team's press conference, Chen Ran blocked everyone's mouths with just one sentence.

"Since I have been the head coach of the Brazil team, there have always been players from the team under my name."

"If you follow your standards, should players like Kaka, Thiago Silva, Alves, Maicon and Casemiro avoid suspicion and not participate in this World Cup?"

As soon as Chen Ran said these words, all the Brazilian reporters present shut their mouths.

Just kidding, Kaka is now the captain of the Brazil team, leading the team to the 2011 Copa America.

Thiago Silva is not only the vice-captain of the Brazilian team, but also the absolute core of the team's defense.

Coupled with the backbone of Alves and Maicon, without them, what else will the Brazilian team have to compete for the World Cup championship?
Although the Brazilian reporters stopped talking, there were always some people who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal. They jumped out and fanned the flames.

"Mr. Chen, Kaka and Thiago Silva are all famous players who have proven their abilities."

"This Alisson is unknown. He is just a substitute goalkeeper of the Recife Sports Club. It is a bit difficult for him to be selected for the star-studded Brazil team."

Chen Ran glanced at the malicious reporter and smiled slightly.

"Excuse me, Mr. reporter, which country are you from?"

"Hehe, it doesn't matter which country I come from, Mr. Chen, please don't evade the question."

"You are not a reporter from Argentina, are you? Why, dare not admit it?"

Chen Ran asked casually.

Immediately, a large number of Brazilian reporters in the press conference looked over with suspicious eyes.

"Do you know this guy?"

"I don't know. Is this guy really an Argentine reporter?"

"Wang Defa! Why did the Argentine reporter come to the press conference of our Brazilian team?"

"Who knows? Is it just to make trouble on purpose?"

"It's possible, I'll show him some color later."

"no problem."

Seeing that Chen Ran successfully shifted the focus to himself, the reporter panicked.

"That's right, I'm an Argentine reporter. Isn't Mr. Chen afraid to answer my question?"

"Oh!"

As soon as this guy admitted his identity, the atmosphere of the entire press conference suddenly became delicate.

If there is a problem in your own family, you can criticize it behind closed doors.But once outsiders intervene, the nature is completely different.

Seeing that he had achieved the effect he wanted, Chen Ran did not evade doubts at this time.

"Mr. reporter, I believe that the question you mentioned is also a question of many people."

"However, anyone who knows me well should know that my vision for selecting players has been verified many times. At least so far, I haven't misunderstood."

"Today, I will put a sentence here. Alisson will definitely become a top goalkeeper in the future. I can guarantee it with my reputation."

"I don't know if I say that, is the reporter satisfied?"

"Well, I have no problem."

Before the words fell, the Argentine reporter hurriedly got up and left the scene of the press conference.

Just now, he has felt many malicious eyes.If you don't leave at this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave.

After strongly rebuffing all doubts, Chen Ran officially announced the 23-man roster for the Brazilian national team to participate in this World Cup.

Forwards: Neymar, Hulk, Diego Costa, Fred.

Midfield: Kaka, Fernandinho, Ramirez, Casemiro, Willian, Douglas Costa, Oscar, Coutinho.

Defenders: Thiago Silva, Maicon, Alves, Dante, David Luiz, Marcelo, Maxwell, Marquinhos.

Goalkeepers Cesar, Gomez, Alisson.

In this World Cup, Brazil, as the host, will naturally have some preferential treatment. They are in Group A with Croatia, Mexico and Cameroon.

Although it seems that the opponents in this group are not weak at first glance, whether it is Croatia, Mexico or Cameroon, none of them are good.

But as long as the Brazilian team wins the group first, it can be guaranteed that they will not encounter any favorite teams before entering the semi-finals.

On June 6, the Brazilian team will play the opening game of the World Cup with Croatia at the Sao Paulo Arena.

The World Cup held in China was still the opening game. Naturally, Chen Ran put all the main players of the Brazilian team into the starting lineup.

There is only one goal, and that is to win a good start.

Left winger Neymar, center Diego Costa, right winger Hulk
Kaka
DM Fernandinho, DM Ramirez

Left back Marcelo, center back Thiago Silva, center back David Luiz, right back Alves

goalkeeper cesar

On the Croatian side, coach Niko Kovac is naturally the main force.

Center Jelavic
Left midfielder Olic, midfielder Kovacic, right midfielder Perisic

DM Rakitic, DM Modric

Left back Vrsaljko, center back Lovren, center back Joel Luka, right back Srna
Goalkeeper Pletikosa

The current strength of Croatia should not be underestimated, especially the midfield configuration headed by Modric and Rakitic is even more luxurious.

However, after three years of training, Neymar, who just transferred to Barcelona last year with a total cost of more than 8000 million euros, has replaced Kaka as the new offensive core of the Brazilian team.

With these two offensive hot spots, coupled with the equally good offensive ability of Diego Costa and Hulk, Chen Ran has the confidence to break through any team's defense.

However, accidents always happen unexpectedly.

Just 10 minutes after the Japanese referee Yuichi Nishimura blew the whistle to start the game, Marcelo scored the first goal of this World Cup and the first own goal, helping Croatia lead Brazil 1-0.

"Fuck! The Brazilian team is so unlucky? An own goal at the beginning?"

Thousands of miles away in China, countless fans are watching the opening game of the Brazil World Cup in front of the TV.

Many people guessed that the Brazilian team would take the lead in scoring, but few people could have expected that the goal would be an own goal.

"This seems to be the first goal of this World Cup, right? The first goal is an own goal, which is really unexpected."

"The Brazilian team is not playing well this time, which is equivalent to starting the game with a score of 0:1."

"It's okay. There is still time. I believe that with Chen Ran's on-the-spot command ability and the overall strength of the Brazilian team, it will not be a big problem to equalize or even overtake."

"Hahahaha, it seems that the upstairs is quite confident in the Brazilian team."

"I don't have confidence in the Brazilian team, but I have confidence in Chen Ran. This guy can win the World Cup with Portugal, and he will definitely have no problem with the Brazil team."

"Good guy, the one upstairs is Chen Ran's die-hard fan."

"Hmph, is it like what I said, and you'll find out when you look down."

On the sidelines, seeing the overjoyed appearance of the Croatian players, Chen Ran could only shake his head helplessly.

"Keep your heads up, it was just an accident!"

"It's no big deal to fall behind by one goal. There is still time, you just need to score more goals and overtake the score!"

"Attack, attack, attack again!"

Seeing that the morale of the Brazilian players on the field was affected, Chen Ran hurriedly reminded the players loudly on the sidelines.

Fortunately, these Brazilian players are seasoned stars, and this small accident is not enough to shake their confidence.

After being awakened by Chen Ran, he immediately launched a fierce attack according to Chen Ran's request.
