11. Midfield

Time passed slowly, and Croydon felt like they were getting better the more they played. In fact, it was not that Crystal Palace had no chance. They had opportunities, but they were relatively few. In addition, the forwards were not strong enough, and they were still unable to break through Croydon's door.

, this is not surprising, now the main player of Crystal Palace is Victor Moses.

This striker from Nigeria is just over 18 years old. It can be said that he and Wen Sheng are "neighbors" because this guy came to England very early and stayed with a family in Croydon. The middle school he attended was not far away.

Crystal Palace was not far away, and he was spotted by Crystal Palace very early and was brought to the team.

Moses is well-known in the Croydon area. He scored a lot of goals in the youth team, and his early development in the adult team was relatively smooth. However, this guy was in very bad form last season. He only scored 2 goals in 32 appearances.

If he had scored more efficiently, Warnock wouldn't be as miserable as relegation.

Warnock sometimes doesn't want to use him, but there's no way his boss friend has no money, and with such a young potential player, Simon Jordan definitely doesn't want to see Moses sit on the bench too often.

So Croydon is blessed today, and of course this is also due to Wen Sheng.

Moses is very fast, but Wen Sheng's formation and defense are very deep, which limits his speed. Moreover, Moses is young and impatient, and has good dribbling skills. Unfortunately, his vision and passing are not good, and he can't shoot.

I have always believed that great efforts can produce miracles, but as a result, this guy is possessed by a demon and his performance is extremely poor!

"Thank you, fellow!" Wen Sheng looked at Moses on the court and called Amitabha in his heart!

The current Moses is not the Moses who will show great power under Conti in the future, so um, he is really Amitabha!

There is no way, Crystal Palace is indeed a lower-tier team in the English Championship, but they can't stand the skinny camel, which is still much stronger than Croydon. Once or twice, Wen Sheng's little heart kept jumping.

.

Warnock scolded him directly on the sidelines. Moses played too badly.

Moses restrained himself, but unfortunately, the time had come to the end of halftime.

Croydon actually didn't concede a single goal. Of course, they were quite embarrassed as they had zero shots in the first half.

“Well done!”

“Well done!”

"Damn it, your tackle is like an amateur work of art!"



Free words of encouragement kept coming from Wen Sheng's mouth, and the players were also very happy. There was a lot of discussion in the locker room. Everyone felt the obvious changes that Wen Sheng's tactical formation brought to the defense.

Of course, defense is also extremely physically demanding. Moreover, these comrades are amateur players and their physical reserves are not as good as those of Crystal Palace's professional players. Wen Sheng had to replace some players in the midfield.

"Defense is our first priority! For them, haha, it would be a shame if they can't win the game against our weak neighbor! For us, haha, as long as we don't let them score, we can

It’s been blowing for a long time!”

"Of course, it's a competition. How can a team be called a good team if it doesn't want to win! So, Amy, your chance has come!"

Wen Sheng called Amy Traore.

"I'm here, winner!" Traore immediately stood up and straightened his chest. He didn't get a chance in the first half and thought he hadn't trained well enough to catch Wen Sheng's eyes.

"Are you hungry now?!" Wen Sheng asked.

The players burst into laughter, and Wen Sheng's words expressing hunger were inappropriate.

No one thought that Wen Sheng actually had such a side.

"Are you hungry?!" Wen Sheng glared at the laughing players several times and still asked Traore using that word.

Everyone understands this, including Traore, but he can only answer with a bitter look, "Yes, I'm very horny!"

"Then go up and kill them!" Wen Sheng said loudly.

"Gentlemen, don't look for points in the middle in the second half. Go straight to the wing for long balls! Amy, you are one of the forwards. The task I give you is to fight against Fonte. You move in the middle first. Don't be in a hurry.

Go to the wing, and when you see us getting the ball in the backcourt, you move to the wing at the right time, and in the second half you bring Fonte out on the wing!"

It makes sense for Wen Sheng to make this arrangement. A game is a battle of wits and courage for both sides. Croydon's forward attack in the first half was quite British. Needless to say, the result was ineffective.

In the confrontation, the combination of Fonte and Lawrence has a great advantage.

However, this is good, and it is also possible to paralyze the opponent. The two full-backs of Crystal Palace pressed deeper in the first half, and there was space in the backcourt.

It is this kind of gap that Wen Sheng wants to seize. Of course, it is difficult to say whether Crystal Palace will miss it in the second half, but there is at least a 70% probability that they will still press the full-back.

Wen Sheng's tactics are simple and clear, and everyone understands them. Joey joked: "It's like stealing a goal while they're not paying attention!"

"Bingo! The answer is correct! Gentlemen, we can't compare with them in terms of personal strength, we have to admit it! But football is never determined by individual ability. Football is a team sport, and a game is full of countless suspense! So, we

What we have to do now is to be fully prepared, be ourselves, and then leave the rest to God to decide! I firmly believe that God will favor us who work hard! Whether it is stealing or robbing, as long as we can score goals!"

"Let's make a deal first. If you win the game today, I'll treat you to a drink tonight!" Wen Sheng slapped his chest and shouted loudly.

"Count me in tonight, Danny!" After leaving the locker room, team president Smith, who had been in the locker room all the time, came out and said to Wen Sheng with a smile.

"Sir, do you believe we will win?!" Wen Sheng said with a smile.

"Okay, kid! Now I kind of believe that you are a genius, a coaching genius! Don't you realize that everyone is convinced of you? To be honest, I haven't seen this kind of atmosphere in the team for a long, long time! Now I also believe in you, you

Just being able to lead the team to this victory!" Smith praised sincerely.

"Haha, I don't dare take it! Mr. Smith, the outcome can only be left to God. Anyway, I have played almost all the cards that I should play. I believe that Mr. Hawking and the others have done the best!" Wen Sheng laughed.

"Regardless of victory or defeat, I will invite everyone for a drink tonight. I will leave Croydon after this game!" Wen Sheng then said seriously.

"You want to leave?! We haven't found a coach yet!" Smith looked bitter. He really wanted Wen Sheng to stay.

"Sorry, Mr. Smith, thank you very much for your support during this time! But I still have my dream, and I will always support Croydon, ha, after all, it is my hometown team! But I really have to leave

!" Wen Sheng's determination is unshakable.

"Well, thank you very much for your efforts during this time! You will succeed!" Smith could only say helplessly.

The two people walked and talked. When they arrived at the coaching bench, Wayne was also stimulated by the team's performance in the first half and asked: "Danny, are you confident in the second half?!"

Wen Sheng shrugged and sat down, "All the arrangements that need to be made have been made! The rest depends on luck!"

"What do you think our chances of winning are?!"

"It's hard to say!" Wen Sheng was speechless. "From the perspective of the entire competition, we have innate advantages in some aspects. Although we are neighbors, they don't know us, but we know them very well. I have done some

Targeted arrangements will depend on whether Joey and the others live up to expectations or fail to live up to expectations!"

"Uncle, it's just a friendly match. There's no need to take it so seriously, right?!" This friendly match is very important to Wen Sheng, but after all, it's just a friendly match.

"I didn't say I attach too much importance to it, I just hope that this game can unite the team! As you know, our task of avoiding relegation in the new season will not be easy!" Wien said with a smile.
Chapter completed!
