Chapter 200 Investigating the European Cup
The UEFA EURO 2008, also known as the UEFA Nations Cup, is jointly hosted by Austria and Switzerland.
Duncan made an appointment with his good friend Moyes and went to the two countries to watch the game together.
The honest man Moyes usually looks pretty solid, but he never relents when he takes advantage. When he heard that Duncan can go to the game at public expense and bring some entourages, there is no upper limit for that one, so he followed the plane with shamelessness. .
By the way, I also brought Martin O'Neill.
Aston Villa manager.
Moyes' Everton has always been the master of splitting a coin into two halves. They have always bought people at a price of 5 pounds, and they are still complaining that the other party uses pounds instead of euros.
Free planes are naturally worthwhile.
But Duncan thought that Moyes had the heart but not the brain. When he looked around, he found Martin O'Neill looking at him suspiciously.
Well, it must be the bald guy who noticed behind his back.
Compared with the honest Moyes, the honest-looking Martin O'Neill is treacherous and ghostly.
This guy is also complacent about taking advantage of the cheap air tickets.
"The team's speed on the wing is still lacking. I don't know how much it will sell if Abanglahuo and Ashley Young are packaged and sold?" Duncan suddenly said to himself.
Martin O'Neill originally wanted to drink orange juice from a cup, but when he heard Duncan's words, his hand shook, and the orange juice splashed onto his crotch.
Now the whole world knows that there is Thaksin's financial support behind Manchester City, and this summer window will definitely be a bargain.The above Xia Chuang's inhumane level, there are very few people who Manchester City want to buy, I am afraid that there are very few cases where they cannot buy.
Martin O'Neill's Aston Villa has no "can't buy" situation for Manchester City.
"The speed of these two people is good, but the overall strength is still not good! Actually, you can look at Bell and Ronaldo!" Martin O'Neill sneaked his eyes and said cautiously: "You can't take a fancy to these two people. "
Aston Villa will play in the UEFA Cup next season... Well, it has been renamed the Europa League. Abanglaho and Ashley Young are the core of the team in Martin O'Neill's plan.
"How can you keep it? You are going to play in the European League next season. The better the team's performance, the higher the possibility of these two people leaving the team... Everyone is so familiar, it will be cheaper if you sell it to me," Duncan said slightly He tilted his head, tapped his fingers on the armrest of the seat, and gave him a rational analysis: "If the time comes, a wealthy team... such as Manchester United, wants to buy Abanglahor or Ashley Young, can you stop it?"
Martin O'Neill was silent.
Seeing that this guy didn't speak for a while, Duncan turned his head to the other side. Moyes was holding a newspaper with all the players participating in the European Cup, and was reading them one by one.
"If I can't stop it, I will resign." Martin O'Neill raised his head, looked at Duncan, and said seriously.
This guy is quite stubborn.
But this FLAG cannot be set up casually. Duncan remembers that after a few seasons, Martin O'Neill resigned angrily because it seemed that the club did not invest in the main force.
This is also the tragedy of the small team.
If the card can be better, this guy may not only be sixth in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons, right?
This made Duncan think of Moyes again. Although there is no Fellaini, Moyes' team still ranks seventh.
This is also an affirmation of Moyes' coaching ability.
at this time,
Moyes shook his head while reading the newspaper.
"No no."
"Nothing?" Duncan asked.
"I wanted to find a player like Fellaini, but I looked through the list, and there was none." Moyes shook his head. Last season, he missed Fellaini, whom he had coveted for a long time, and his stomach hurt for a long time.
"I think Fellaini is always a substitute in your team, and he doesn't have many opportunities to play. Otherwise, you rent Moyes to me for a season, and I will help you level up, and I will definitely help you become a world-class midfielder. I don't want your rental fee either, we will bear his salary, what do you think?" Moyes rubbed his hands like a small customer who bought something.
He always felt that there was a lack of a player like Fellaini in his tactical system.
"That won't work, I will use this kid next season!" Duncan thought for a while and said, "Let me give you a suggestion. Your Everton is playing defensive counterattack. If there is a high point in the frontcourt, it is a kind of counterattack." Choice. But if there is no high point, can you try to counterattack by relying on explosive points and speed?" Duncan said, suddenly thinking of Leicester City's frontcourt combination in a certain year: "A player with outstanding ability to hold the ball and go it alone A breakout player, and a forward who is incredibly fast, hardworking, and great off the ball. The combination of the two might work wonders.”
"A player like that has long been snatched away by the giants. How could it be my turn?" Moyes said helplessly.
"It is suggested that I have already helped you out, do you still want me to help you find players?" Duncan put his body back on the seat, feeling the bumps from the clouds.
After thinking about it for a while, Moyes suddenly raised his head and looked at Martin O'Neill with sparkling eyes: "Hey, Martin! Abang Lahor, are you selling it or not?"
"roll!"
……
Switzerland in June is still very hot, of course, what is even hotter is the enthusiasm of football fans.
Duncan was recognized by many fans in the crowd and signed many autographs.
Duncan went to Basel's St. Jakobs-Park to watch the opener between the Czech Republic and Switzerland.
In fact, Duncan parted ways with Moyes and Martin O'Neill as soon as he got off the plane.The three have different tasks and goals. Duncan is to inspect the players of other teams, and the two are to inspect the players of their own team.
As a small team, they rarely catch up with the European Cup's premium buying trend.
Buying popular players is what Haomen does.
Duncan didn't expect to meet Moyes again here.
So Moyes rubbed another wave of boxes.
He is here for the young player Dediyock, who is 1 meters tall and has good skills. He is a striker and can also play as a central defender.According to Fellaini's template, it is not bad.
The point is, this kid is a substitute, cheap to buy.
In this game, the Czech Republic had an advantage, and Switzerland could only defend and counterattack.At this time, Switzerland's defensive formation had already taken shape, with good positioning and concentrated attention. The Czech siege for a long time did not score.
Duncan nodded. Although Switzerland's reputation is not obvious at this time, there is a faint shape of a draw with Brazil in the World Cup ten years later.
Sure enough, the Great Wall was not built in a day, nor was the bus built in a day.
In the second half of the game, Switzerland played a quick counterattack. The Swiss right back tangled with the opposing player, broke the football up and down, and then passed it to his own midfielder immediately.
Then he didn't stop, but galloped forward with all his strength, the football was turned to the left, and after three passes, it reached the right back's feet again.
The place where he caught the ball was already at the front of the penalty area. The right back raised his leg and shot, and the football was pushed out of the crossbar by the Czech goalkeeper.
"Wow, that's a good small print. Although I don't know how good the technique is, he has a positive style and can go up and down. The most important thing is that his shooting skills are even better than ordinary strikers!" Moyes' eyes lit up.He is the head coach who prepares dishes according to the characteristics of the players, so he will naturally learn about his characteristics: "I just don't know which club this guy is from. For a Swiss international, the price should be higher..."
Moyes made a small calculation.
"Oh, this man, I already bought it!"
Duncan said quietly.
