  Chapter 48 Records

   "Thomas, how are these kids doing?"

  Tuchel watched the game too intently, and from time to time recorded something in a notebook. Hearing Chen Ran's voice, he realized his arrival.

   "Boss, why are you here? Do you have something to do with me?"

   Tuchel quickly stood up and replied.

   "Sit, I'll take a look at the youth team. Are there any outstanding kids?"

"Yes, those kids you just brought in from Barcelona. Especially Cesc Fabregas, he's too mature to handle the ball, he's organized and organized, it's not like a kid his age should behave. At least it's the first time I've seen it."

   Chen Ran nodded, Cesc Fabregas really matured as early as in his previous life, so it would be easy to handle.

   "Then do you think that Cesc Fabregas can play in the Championship with his current ability?"

   "The Championship? Now?"

  Tuchel glanced at Chen Ran in surprise, "Boss, Cesc Fabregas is only 16 years old, isn't it too anxious to let him play in the Championship?"

   "I can't help it either, do you know about Josep?"

   "I heard that, I plan to go to the hospital to see him later."

"It's good to know that Josep is the core of our midfield at Crystal Palace. As soon as he is out, the person who controls the rhythm of attack and defense will be gone. The rest are either too immature and immature, or their bodies are not well developed and too thin. Think about it. Go, I'm going to transfer Cesc Fabregas to try."

"Fabregas' ability to control the rhythm of attack and defense is really good. However, boss, I have to remind you that this is only his performance in the youth team competition. If it is good in the league, I can't guarantee it. ."

  Tuchel reminded Chen Ran wholeheartedly when he saw Chen Ran insist.

   "Don't worry, the next game is the League Cup game against Torquay United, a fifth-tier team. Just let him be a substitute first to see the effect, and we won't use him directly as the main force."

"That's good."

   After the youth team game ended, Chen Ran called Cesc Fabregas aside.

   "Seske, are you getting used to your time in London?"

   "Not bad, but the weather in London is much worse than Barcelona."

   "I really can't do this, you just have to get used to it slowly."

   "Boss, how is Josep now? We want to go to the hospital to see him."

   "Don't worry, I have asked the best doctor in the UK to operate on him, and he will definitely recover."

   "That's good. Boss, are you looking for me for something?"

   "It's true. Josep's injury will take a long time to recover, and during this time, I want you to take his place."

   "What? Me? Boss, are you kidding me?"

  Fabregas couldn't believe his ears.

   From the first day he joined Crystal Palace, he knew that Guardiola is the absolute core of Crystal Palace's midfield and the pivot of the team's offensive and defensive transition.

  Because he was also born in the Barcelona La Masia youth academy, and the position attributes of the two are similar, this made Cesc Fabregas take Guardiola as his goal of studying hard.

   But now he is about to replace Guardiola's position, but Cesc Fabregas never thought of it.

   "I'm not kidding. I'm here today to ask you a question: Are you willing to accept this challenge?"

  “.”

   Hearing Chen Ran's question, Fabregaston was stunned for a moment.

   Frankly speaking, before joining Crystal Palace, under Chen Ran's flickering, he did imagine himself becoming a main player and representing Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

   However, he did not expect the day to come so soon, so early.

   After a long time, when Fabregas raised his head again, his eyes were filled with determination.

   "Boss, I am willing to accept this challenge."

  The suspension system in the UK is quite special. If it is a cumulative suspension of yellow cards, it will only be counted in the event. If the suspension is caused by a red card, even if it is two yellows and one red, it will take effect in all matches under the FA.

   This is also a loophole in the rules that many strong teams often exploit, using unimportant cup matches to shuffle the cards.

   Therefore, the red card Simeone got in the last British Championship made him unable to play in this League Cup, but it did not affect his participation in the next round of the British Championship.

   The premise is that the FA does not impose additional penalties.

   Although it was an away game, because the opponent was only a fifth-tier team, commonly known as an amateur team, Chen Ran did not send all the main lineup.

   In addition to the captain Southgate being sent to the field, the players who had few chances to play before also got the chance to play in this game.

   As expected by Chen Ran, the game went very smoothly.

   At the end of the first half, Crystal Palace had a three-goal lead.

   The starting striker Crouch kicked his head and scored two goals alone. The central defender Thiago Silva also scored his first goal for Crystal Palace in a corner kick.

   At half-time, Chen Ran even replaced Southgate and Vidic, and sent Fabregas and Pepe on.

   Cesc Fabregas's debut also allowed him to create the record of the youngest player in the history of Crystal Palace Club.

   Cesc Fabregas, who represented Crystal Palace for the first time, did not live up to Chen Ran's expectations. Catching, passing, organizing, and scheduling are straight-forward, decent, and without any nervousness.

   He combed Crystal Palace's midfield more smoothly than in the first half, and also sent an assist to Crouch, just like a midfield commander.

   This also allowed Cesc Fabregas to create the record for the youngest assist player in Crystal Palace club history.

  In the end, with the help of Crouch's hat-trick, Crystal Palace eliminated Torquay United 4-0 away.

  Because it was a League Cup match, Chen Ran only earned 500,000 euros this time.

   As the Champions League leaders, it's no surprise to beat an amateur team.

   But Cesc Fabregas' performance surprised many people. Is this really just a 16-year-old player?

   "Boss, you have discovered another genius."

   "Yes, the key is to be so mature and stable at the age of 16, which is really rare."

   Southgate and Simeone were amazed by Cesc Fabregas' performance.

   When Fabregas replaced Southgate at halftime, Chen Ran also made Southgate and Simeone a little worried. He felt that the field was full of young people, and he felt uneasy without a veteran.

   Not to mention, the one in charge of scheduling and organizing in midfield is Cesc Fabregas, the youngest player in the game, who played for Crystal Palace for the first time.

   Now, the two of them are completely speechless.

  Chen Ran was brave enough to use people, and Cesc Fabregas also repaid Chen Ran with his performance.

  Although the opponent is only a fifth-tier team, it is a good start after all.

  Maybe, Cesc Fabregas can really replace the vacancy left by Josep?

   Southgate and Simone couldn't help but think so.
