Chapter 36 Two Problems In the warm-up match against the New York Red Bulls, Chen Lin did not get the chance to play again, not because of his previous poor performance, but because Arena was going to send another right midfielder of the team in this game, Magee.

Magee has always been a stable substitute for Beckham, and the addition of Chen Lin has greatly threatened Magee's position in the team, but Magee is not an unsuccessful player, he is also very hardworking, and it can even be said that he works harder than Beckham.

Magee doesn't want to lose his place at the LA Galaxy because he doesn't have the star status of David Beckham, so he can only conquer Arenal through his performances on the pitch.

Magee's efforts have paid off, at least in the warm-up game against the New York Red Bulls, Magee performed very well. After coming off the bench in the second half, Magee provided an assist for Juninho to break the deadlock.

Magee's performance was also recognized by Arena.

Magee himself has the strength to start at the LA Galaxy, during the period when Beckham was loaned, Magee was the main right midfielder of the LA Galaxy, and he was deeply trusted by Arena, so even after Beckham's return, Arena gave Magee plenty of playing time.

The excellent performance in the warm-up game has also allowed Magee to keep himself playing in the new season, which poses a problem for Arena, who now has three strong right midfielders in his squad, and how to allocate the playing time of these three players is a big problem for Arena.

Having three exceptionally good players in the same position wouldn't be a problem for European teams, but MLS teams are different from European teams in that they don't have as many games as European teams, and in fact, if the players don't get injured, the LA Galaxy can play all the games for the entire season with just one lineup.

Players don't get tired of playing in MLS, and their schedule is so relaxed that some players even choose to play in Europe on loan during the holidays.

There wasn't much time left for the game, and now there were three people to divide it, so it's no wonder that Arenal had a headache.

Of course, Arena can actually choose not to have a headache, and the three of them are also good points, Beckham, as the head star of the Los Angeles Galaxy team, his playing time must not be reduced, and as for Magee, Magee, who is so active, Arena can't bear to reduce his playing time.

That would have to sacrifice Chen Lin, as long as the LA Galaxy rotated Beckham and Magee in the right midfield position as they did last season, they could also achieve a lot in the new season.

But the problem is that Arenal is unwilling to sacrifice Chen Lin, Chen Lin was selected by Arenal from the draft of the major leagues, Arenal didn't think too much about it at that time, he just felt that Chen Lin's strength was worth his choice, so he was selected, and Chen Lin's performance in the training camp and warm-up games did not disappoint Arenal , he showed his determination to become stronger in training, and he also showed a strong desire to win in the game~ hope, which Arenal appreciated very much.

Arena already likes to dig out young players, and Chen Lin is considered by him to be the most talented young player he can discover, in this case, Arena is of course unwilling to sacrifice Chen Lin.

"So what should I do? How to allocate the playing time of Beckham, Magee and Chen Lin? After seeing Magee's performance in those two warm-up games, Arena has been thinking about it for a long time.

In the warm-up match against the New York Red Bulls, the LA Galaxy drew away from home, and the LA Galaxy equalized shortly after the goal thanks to a goal from Thierry Henry.

For the rest of the game, neither team could find a way to continue scoring, and the two teams shook hands at 1:1.

Although very happy with Magee's performance, Arena was unhappy with the performance of the entire LA Galaxy in this game, and although the New York Red Bulls have Henry, a big-name star, and even won the Eastern Conference last year, their strength is not too prominent in the entire league.

The LA Galaxy had every chance to win on the road, but the team's forward players wasted too many chances, which ultimately led to a draw in the warm-up game.

In fact, from the first warm-up game, Arena found that the forward players in his team were very out of shape, whether it was Donovan and Kirovsky in the start, or Angel and Barrett who came on as substitutes, they all seemed to lack some scoring feeling in the game.

In the two warm-up games, the team's right side attack was very threatening, but it was unable to break the opponent's goal, which has to be said to be the forward's pot, as the team's second star Donovan from the last few games of last season, it seems to have entered a goal drought, and he can't find the feeling of scoring for a long time.

To make matters worse, several of the team's other forwards didn't step up at this time, and the entire LA Galaxy's forward line was in a difficult situation.

Arena's problems suddenly became two – too much talent in the right midfield and too little talent in the forward line.

"If we had picked a forward in this year's draft, we wouldn't have had so many troubles." Arena said to himself, but soon he dismissed his own idea.

"If I really pick a striker, then wouldn't I miss out on Lin?" Arena shook his head, if Arena was asked to choose again, he would still choose Chen Lin, Chen Lin is too tempting for him, a coach who likes to dig out young players~ The temptation is too great.

After the LA Galaxy drew with the New York Red Bulls, major media rushed to cover the game, and many reporters also mentioned the lack of firepower in the LA Galaxy's forward line.

"I don't know if Arena regrets his choice in the major league draft, Chen Lin doesn't seem to be the player that the LA Galaxy needs today, even without Chen Lin, the LA Galaxy's wing offense is still playing well, and they need a potential forward player!"

Arena saw the reports, but he didn't regret choosing Chen Lin at all, he took the current predicament of the LA Galaxy as the price of choosing Chen Lin in the draft, and since he wanted to dig out such a good player, it was worth paying a little price.

Arena is already old, there is no problem he can't see, anyway, there are still more than ten days before the start of the new season, Arena can slowly think about a solution to the LA Galaxy dilemma, maybe one day Donovan and other strikers will reopen their senses......

Arena has expectations.
