Chapter 898 Fulham comes to challenge

Latest website:

August has passed, and the 2018 summer transfer has come to an end.

Cristiano Ronaldo moved to Juventus for 112 million and became the top bidder in this hot summer. Mr. Zhu and Grandpa Mo, both classic veterans, are free transfers, so the Premier League title fell on goalkeeper Kepa, who came to Chelsea from Biba.

80 million is Kepa's full contract break clause, and he also set a goalkeeper transfer record.

Chelsea had no choice. Courtois, who was determined to leave, was taken away by Real Madrid for only 35 million. The majestic Blue Bridge cannot only rely on the aging Caballero to defend the goal line.

Alisson failed to compete with Liverpool. The biggest effect was to raise the price, which cost the Red Army 72.5 million and maintained the record for a goalkeeper for a month.

After suffering setbacks everywhere, 24-year-old Kepa became Chelsea's only option. Biba is indeed ruthless. If you want someone, you have to pay for it. Laporte did it last year, and Kepa did it this year.

80 million is astonishing to put on a goalkeeper. You must know that before this summer, the goalkeeper transfer record was set by Buffon in 2001 for 53 million, and no one has shaken it in 17 years.

Buffon is a figure who can compete for the first place in history. Maybe Chelsea thinks Kepa can too.

Throughout the Premier League, Liverpool's net investment this summer exceeded 150 million, becoming the largest market player, while Chelsea ranked second with 120 million. Manchester City and Tottenham spent nothing, and the third place was not Manchester United or Arsenal, but Fulham, which returned to the Premier League.

‘Farmer’ Fulham spent a net investment of 101 million, becoming the most newly promoted team in the history of the Premier League. Bought a lot of 1000+ and 2000+ players, a total of 12 players, covering almost all positions.

The brands are all okay, but the most famous among them is "Sanduo" Schürrle, who was on loan from Dortmund.

Shahid Khan, Pakistan's richest man, who ranks eighth on the rich list of football club owners, is not only ambitious in building a team, but also has been trying to turn the new Wembley Stadium into Fulham's home ground. The farmer is targeting the 'King of London' The Iron Throne.

The last one to aspire to be the 'King of London' was Charlton. They were relegated from the Premier League in 2007 and are now hanging out in the English League One.

In the fifth round of the Premier League after the international break, Fulham, who spent a lot of money, came to the City Stadium to challenge Manchester City, which everyone shouted to beat.

No one believes that Fulham can overturn the lawless Manchester City in the away game. The focus of people's attention in this game is to expect Zhuo Yang to score another hat trick.

Zhongshan Masashi is so good and capable, why has he held the Guinness hat record for 20 years? Only Zhuo Yang and only the Premier League are the most correct ways to write history.

Today, we are all Manchester City. Fulham wanted to curse.

Others are easy to talk about, especially people like Sanduo who have a close friendship with Zhuo Yang. They either praise Zhuo Yang directly or give polite praise. No matter what they think in their hearts, no one wants to offend anyone.

Only Fulham goalkeeper Marcus Bertinelli dared to say anything.

"I don't deny that Zhuoyang is very powerful, but if he wants to score a hat-trick against Fulham, he must first ask me if I agree. Someone has to stop him, and I think that person is me."

2. He has no background. He is the son of Vic Bertinelli, the goalkeeper coach of Chelsea's youth training team. His goalkeeping skills are inherited from his family.

In 2014, when Fulham had just been relegated from the Premier League, Mourinho, who was coming to Chelsea for the second time, discovered Bettinelli and tried to recruit him as a substitute for Courtois.

In fact, it wasn’t that Mu Niao’s eyes lit up, it was because his son, Mu Niao Jose Mario, was the goalkeeper at Fulham U15, and he followed his son and saw Bettinelli by the way.

But the 22-year-old Bettinelli rejected Mu Niao's invitation. He felt that playing as the main player in the British Championship was more promising than being a substitute for Pantyhose.

Bettinelli is right. In recent years, he has been firmly at the top of Fulham's goal line. Although head coach Jokanovic is not confident about him, otherwise he would not have purchased him from Besiktas for 5.5 million this summer. The 31-year-old Spanish veteran goalkeeper Fabiancio, but Bettinelli at least has confidence.

Once upon a time, before Joe Hart was dead and Pickford was born, Bettinelli was recognized throughout England as the 'Great Britain star' after Hart.

But no matter what kind of orangutan you are, if you show up to provoke Zhuo Yang, you are wrong. It is purely an act of cowardice.

Zhuoyang's current status is too high, he can't be too elegant on the court, and he can't bully others too much. But bullying is often human nature, and he often suppresses it.

In other words, Zhuo Yang needs a reason to bully others, which is quite hypocritical. Bertinelli's decision happened to be a very suitable reason.

Bertinelli is not stupid. He has never eaten pork and heard pig snorts. The reason for provoking Zhuo Yang was that he felt the distrust of head coach Jokanovic and felt the positional pressure brought by Fabiancio.

He is a standard traditional English goalkeeper, similar to Joe Hart. He has a good goal line and a large control area in the penalty area, but he does not have the ability to be a 'keeper' at his feet.

This goalkeeper's ability is not simply passing and receiving, but a complete set of offensive and defensive awareness.

Yes, Jokanovic is also a passing coach. Guardiola did not hesitate to get rid of Joe Hart, and Jokanovic endured Bettinelli in the British Championship for two and a half years.

Jokanovic is a former Yugoslavia international who has played in La Liga Deportivo and Premier League Chelsea.

Playing and excellence leads to teaching. After retiring, Jokanovic coached Partizan Belgrade, Nacional de Portugal and other teams. In the 2014-15 season, he led Watford in the English Championship to be promoted successfully, and this year he led Fulham to the Premier League.

After Kong Erluzi got out of class, Chelsea originally wanted to retain Kanovic, but the locker room with many big bastards in the Blue Bridge Temple persuaded him to leave, and the brilliant prospects painted by owner Shahid Khan deeply moved him, so he stayed. Come down and renew his contract with Fulham for three years.

Jokanovic is a believer in passing and controlling, and it was in the British Championship that he finally stood out with his unique passing and controlling style. But the English Championship is subject to status and personnel restrictions after all. Fulham's previous passing control has always been half-baked, but it is just enough in the English Championship.

In the summer, Fulham replaced almost the entire main lineup, and all the players came with passing talents recognized by Jokanovic. But there is a problem - passing and controlling relies heavily on the tacit understanding between players.

Guardiola, the master of passing control, was first in line when he first entered Manchester City, not to mention Jokanovic, who has undergone a subversive change in personnel.

Regardless of whether Guardiola is in Barcelona, ​​Bayern or Manchester City, after the initial necessary signings are made, he will try to keep the lineup stable. At least the main lineup must be stable, just to serve the passing control.

Fulham lost two consecutive games in the first two rounds of the new season, which immediately let Jokanovic know that the wolf is gray.

Starting from the third round, Joka temporarily curbed his ambitions and reactivated veterans such as Kevin McDonald, Thomas Cairney, and Dennis Odoi.

As a result, in the next two rounds, Fulham's performance improved significantly, drawing with Brighton 2:2 away and beating Burnley 4:2 at home.

So facing Manchester City today, Jokanovic still has some confidence, not that he dares to win if he wants to win, but that he firmly believes that he can play well with Guardiola. A small loss will not be embarrassing, and maybe a draw can be achieved. Woolen cloth.

He did have a slight dissatisfaction with Bettinelli, purely technical. To be honest, not many serious European coaches can like a purely English goalkeeper.

But Fabiancio, who was bought in the summer, was injured when he came to training. He has just recovered recently, and Joca has to continue to use Bettinelli. And for double insurance, he also urged Fulham to rent 25-year-old Sergio Rico from Sevilla at the buzzer in the summer window, regardless of others' criticism of his repeated investment.

Obviously, in Jokanovic's mind, goalkeeper Fabiancio is ranked first, Rico also has considerable weight, and the passing coach likes Brazilian and Spanish goalkeepers. As for Bertinelli, he lives on the razor's edge, relying on his old achievements to still get seats, but his error tolerance is too low.

Under great pressure, Bettinelli urgently needed to quickly improve his reputation, so he had a confrontation with Zhuo Yang before the game.

The most suitable targets for car accidents on the road are cars worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. The owners of this type of cars are generally busy and careless. They cannot afford to offend or spend money on the car accidents, so they can only admit that they are unlucky.

Car owners with tens of thousands of dollars are generally barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. If you can't do it, I will give you a slap and give up the car.

And the owner of a luxury car has a lot of ability to make peace with things. When he gets angry, he dares to directly crush the person who touches the porcelain to death.

Anyone who is experienced in porcelain knows these things very well. They know better than the police who to offend and who not to offend.

But Bertinelli is not a porcelain professional, so the target he is looking for is very problematic. Zhuoyang is not a luxury car, it is an amphibious armored star destroyer.

Bettinelli didn't know, and Fulham didn't know either, but his Manchester City teammates knew it because Zhuoyang asked in the locker room.

"Who knows what the Premier League goal record is in a single game?"
