Although he showed everything confidently in front of Xia Yang, Tang En actually had no score in his heart. Although Chen Jian once expressed his desire to play in the Forest team, but after all, it was four years ago, after four years, he was in the Spaniards, why should people go back?

He called Chen Jian, but he couldn't hear Chen Jian's thoughts just by listening to the voice on the phone. What Chen Jian thinks, he doesn't know. What if people don't look down on Nottingham Forest right now? It's not impossible, after all, the current Forest team is too down.

Now the voices in England generally believe that Nottingham Forest's goal this season should be relegation, and if something is not made, I am afraid that even relegation will be a problem. The cloud of Wood's possible retirement has been hanging over this team and it has been a source of fear.

Moreover, in recent years, few players who have transferred to the Forest team have performed well, and many of them have left and regained light and heat. Such stark contrasts and contrasts make others think that the current Forest team has become a "star black hole". Everyone is eager to escape from this black hole, how can anyone be willing to do the opposite?

In addition, the dishonest agent, although he promised to give him a higher signing fee, he still had no intention of cooperating obediently, and he was still playing his own wishful thinking in his heart.

These conditions are unfavorable...... As long as he is a smart person, he is unlikely to have a surname on the Forest team. But he is still coming to Spain this time, and he intends to do his best again. In addition, how can I say that I am also a world famous handsome, maybe the influence can play some role?

Aren't there a lot of players who are eager to play under Arsene Wenger? So isn't there any player who wants to play under me?

Don thought so.

Then he received a call from Xia Yang.

"Congratulations, Mr. Donn." The voice on the other end of the phone couldn't hear the reluctance at all, as if this decision was agreed by Xia Yang from the bottom of his heart. 'I've talked to Ajian and we both agreed that joining Nottingham Forest would be a good option. Ajian has always wanted to play for Forest and I respect his opinion. I'll do my best to get an agreement between Forest and Espanyol. ”

Whether or not this agent is sincere, Don can breathe a sigh of relief now. Then it's time for club-level negotiations, Allen. After Adams was dismissed, there were others there, and when necessary, Evan Brown. Dogeti will also come forward. Now he begged himself, and naturally whatever he asked would be met. In that case, Don was unceremonious.

After Chen Jian's matter is settled, Don can finally relax and enjoy a Barcelona city derby.

※※※The day before the game, Chen Jian received a call from his agent, Mr. Xia, telling him that he had negotiated with Donne, and the next thing was to wait for the end of this important derby to negotiate with the Spaniards.

Chen Jian let out a sigh of relief, he could finally devote all his energy to this game.

"Hey, Chen. Barcelona's midfielders will be close to you in this game, you are at the heart of us and if you are frozen, we will have problems in attack and defence. What are you going to do then? Teammate Gavrilovich chatted with Chen Jian before the start of the tactical meeting and asked about the next day's game.

As soon as the Serbian centre-back asked such a question, his teammates around him were also interested. They all gathered around, wanting to hear what Chen Jian had to say. This is actually a little game within their team, Chen Jian has a clear mind and seems to have a natural insight into football, so before the game, everyone likes to ask him to guess what he will do if something happens in the game. Then use it as a reference with the actual game situation or the manager's arrangement to see if he is correct.

Of course, there will be some small bets between them, such as a little money, or a meal. Most of the time, Chen Jian will win.

If not, how could he be the main midfield core of a La Liga team as a Chinese? It was all thanks to his performances that he completely conquered his discerning teammates and coaches. This is a place of strength, as long as you have strength, you will be able to earn respect. Chen Jian relied on his ingenuity to win the trust of his teammates.

"If they're keeping an eye on me, I'll back off." Chen Jian smiled. "From the midfielder to the midfielder. I don't think it's going to be possible for Barcelona's midfielders to rush to our box and mark me, right? ”

'They can make substitutions to mark you, like strikers or midfielders who are on the spot. Speaking was another teammate, Israeli defender Yofer. Fogleman.

Chen Jian thought for a moment. "It's a very small possibility and Barcelona's forwards are lazy...... But it's not entirely impossible. If that's the case, I'll play the ball quickly and give you more balls. Be careful of Jofer, don't stop my return pass. ”

He pointed to Foggelman, who was attacking him.

The teammates around him let out a hearty laugh.

Chen Jian has a good temper, rarely gets angry, and always smiles at his teammates, so he is very popular. No one likes a teammate with a straight face, and this Oriental is very likable.

In the later tactical meeting, regarding the question that Barcelona will defend Chen Jian closely, coach Manzano really arranged for Chen Jian to move back in this game, from his previous central midfielder to a midfielder.

Hearing the head coach's arrangement, many teammates lamented in their hearts: I lost money again!

Chen Jian smiled happily. But when he remembered that he was leaving the team and his teammates in the winter, his smile stopped. To pursue one's original dream, one must give up everything you have now, is it worth it or not?

※※※ The Barcelona city derby a day later is the highlight of the current round of La Liga, and the Spaniard's results have been stable in the middle of the table in the last three seasons, and they are no longer the weak team that was barely relegated before. Such a Spaniard could also cause enough problems for Barcelona in a derby. Every year in Cornea. Barcelona couldn't bargain for the derby at the Estadio Eprat (Espanyol's new home). In three derbies in three seasons, Barcelona have drawn two and lost one.

Back at home, though, Barcelona are also doing well, with two wins and one draw at Camp Nou yet to lose.

Today's game takes place at Camp Nou.

Don was invited by Xia Yang to watch the match with him from the stands. Now that they have decided to transfer to Nottingham Forest, even if Xia Yang and Chen Jian have the same interests, they will not feel embarrassed to sit together and watch the game.

In this game, Barcelona really practiced very strict marking tactics against Chen Jianjian. Chen Jian wears Espanyol's number 10 shirt, which is enough to explain his role and status in the team. In the past few seasons, the Spaniards' midfield has been dispatched by Chen Jian, as a small team, there are no more strong players, and there is no bench with enough thickness, so the tactics are inevitably monotonous. Chen Jian is the core of their tactics, and once he is stared at, the team's performance will be greatly reduced.

After all, Chen Jian is not a world-class star, and he may not even be able to reach the top class in Europe. Otherwise, the Spaniard would not be where they are now. But the city derby is a different matter, in such a game, the strength of the two teams is to be put aside, and the result and process of the game need to be calculated separately. It can be said that no matter how many superstars Barcelona have, how strong they are in the past, how many titles they have won, and how good their recent results are, both sides have been pulled to the same level before this game.

Whether you can win this game or not is often not based on strength, but on fighting spirit and spirit.

The game entered a high-speed track from the beginning, and the players on both sides fought quite fiercely, and the smell of gunpowder was very strong.

It was the first time for Tang En to see such a hot Chen Jian.

Five minutes into the game, he picked up the ball in midfield and Barcelona's defender Busquez came up to knock him down, and a minute later he found a chance to get revenge. At that time, Busquez took the ball and was about to break through, but Chen Jian stretched out his foot behind his back and hooked his toes, and his center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground.

Buskes got up and wanted to trouble Chen Jian, but Chen Jian put his head up without showing weakness. The height of the two people is different, Chen Jian is shorter than Buskez, but his expression is extremely fierce, and he is not lost to Gundam Buskes at all.

Donn laughed in the stands: "Oops, a bit of George's shadow...... No wonder the media would say he was one size younger. What about Wood......"

"Usually Ah Jian is not like this." Xia Yang didn't seem to like such a fierce Chen Jian. "His image is very healthy and sunny, and he is very popular with sponsors."

No wonder. Don smiled, said no more, and continued to watch the game.

Barcelona were superior in terms of strength, but they were embarrassed by the Spaniards' mad dog-like pressing tactics, and the Spaniards seemed to have no regard for the physical strength of the second half, pressing all over the field from the beginning of the first half, and repeatedly attacking after breaking the ball on the spot in the front court, so that Barcelona's backline could only parry.

The tactics were right, and if the Spaniards had one or two shooters in their squad who could keep their throats shut, the situation would have been more favourable. Pity...... That's the sadness of a small team.

No matter how good the head coach is, he must be constrained by the strength of the team itself, and cannot play to the fullest. It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice.

Don admired that Manzano, even though they had never met. To be able to stabilize a team like Espanyol in the middle of La Liga is a remarkable achievement. Chen Jian was also able to play well in his hands. It's not bad to say that he is Chen Jian's second Bole.

※※※ The first to score was indeed the more aggressive, more combative and hard-working away team Espanyol. In the 31st minute of the game, the Spaniards first used a series of fierce attacks to hit Barcelona's back line physically and mentally exhausted, and then Chen Jian, who took the ball in the back position, suddenly passed a long diagonal pass close to the ground near the center circle, and the football was able to avoid the blocking of three Barcelona players along the way, and accurately gave it to his striker teammate Emilio who cut inside from the side, the fast striker received the ball and suddenly took advantage of the situation in the penalty area, and then faced the attacking goalkeeper Barcelona goalkeeper Roberto picked up the goal.

The Camp Nou, which had been like a pot of boiling water, fell silent for a small group of Espanyol fans cheering loudly by the name of the goal-scorer Emilio.

Donn also stood up to applaud the Espanyol's goal. But he wasn't for Emilio, but for the number 10 who sent Emilio a penetrating pass of 35 meters.

It's so much more mature than it was four years ago...... The difficulty of this kick lies in accurately finding the moment of space and passing path in the rapidly changing situation on the field, and at the same time judging whether one's teammates can run to this space, and the timing of the pass, early teammates can't receive it, late teammates are offside. In addition, the use of footwork is also very important, in such a long passing distance, it is still close to the ground, the speed is faster, but the difficulty also increases. Strictly speaking, there is only one path that can allow the football to pass through to the destination, and the width is less than three meters, and the football passes through such a narrow strip of land, and it is necessary to break the opponent undefeated, and it is really very exquisite to pass the ball under the feet, and the strength and accuracy must be qualified.

Xia Yang, a half-man, only admired Chen Jian's performance on the side, and his voice was very loud, as if he hoped that Tang En would be able to give more in the personal contract when he heard it. Tang En didn't care about his calculations, he saw a lot of things from this pass, and became more and more determined to sign Chen Jian.

Wood and Chen Jian's styles are not exactly the same, so there is no need to worry about the waste of overlapping positions. Moreover, two people are on the field at the same time, which can also avoid the opponent staring at one of them, which will lead to the team's offensive paralysis. Both of them can attack and defend well, no matter who goes up, they can organize an attack, and no matter who retreats, they can defend solidly. It's just that Wood's physical fitness is better, and his strong midfield is very threatening in attack, while Chen Jian relies more on passing to achieve such a purpose, and the two can complement each other.

Donn was already starting to sketch out in his mind how the Forest would attack and defend when the two men were on the pitch at the same time.

※※※ Barcelona showed their strength in the subsequent matches, and the giants are giants after all.

In the second half, the Spaniard's stamina dropped dramatically, and some of them couldn't keep up with Barcelona's tempo, and they scored two goals in succession in ten minutes.

Chen Jian's physical strength is good, as a midfielder, his running is not as few as those wide players, but the number of sprints is less. Later, his physical strength could still support it, and the football passed more to his feet. Barcelona also saw it, so they recognized Chen Jianjian. It was supposed to be a derby, the atmosphere was hot, and it was naturally not polite when defending. Chen Jian was kicked three times in the black foot, and someone in Barcelona also received a yellow card for him.

Tang En was a little worried that Chen Jian would be injured in this game, and began to hope that Manzano would replace Chen Jian. But Manzano was unmoved, but asked Chen Jian to give up the position of the back waist, continue to press forward, and push to the position of the front waist.

He then made a change, replacing the goal-scorer, exhausted Emilio with a midfielder, Benjamin. It seemed to be a change to strengthen the defence.

But what happened next made Don have to admire Manzano's methods, albeit a little ...... Well, the taste at all costs.

Chen Jian, as the core, is often pushed by the kicks and hands of Barcelona players, and it is common for him to fall to the ground, and the referee is also very diligent because it is a derby, so the whistle is also very diligent, for fear that if he is negligent, the two sides will scuffle together.

As a result, the Spaniard also won a lot of free-kicks in front.

Benjamin was clearly talented at free-kicks, as he took over all set-pieces as soon as he came on.

Don could sort of see Manzano's intentions.

Seventy-seven minutes into the game, the Spaniards were about 25 meters away from the goal, facing the fans, and Chen Jian created another free kick. This time, Benjamin stood in front of the ball and slid it down, and the ball went around the wall and into the net.

For the second time, the Camp Nou fell silent.

Donn, on the other hand, clapped his hands and laughed in the stands. Manzano's wishful thinking...... In the end, the game was a 2-2 draw, and although Barcelona did not lose the game at home, as a home game, it was a defeat if they did not win the game. Espanyol, on the other hand, were indignant that they did not beat Barcelona.

All kinds of war of words after the game are indispensable, but Don doesn't care about these anymore.

As soon as the game ended, he asked his agent Xia Yang to text Chen Jian and tell him that he wanted to meet him.
