185. Insights of the Buddha

"Daniel, you are too demanding on the team!" Lawrence complained after hearing Wen Sheng's worries, "In my opinion, a team like ours just needs to play with its own distinctive characteristics!"

"When others come to attack, we are steady and will not lose the ball easily! In offense, we are fast and deadly, which is enough! Why must we emphasize the control of the game? In terms of ability and mentality, I am still far away from that standard.

A lot different!" Lawrence expressed his opinion.

"Just because we can't do it, we should work hard! That's the direction of our efforts. We must work non-stop toward the goal, otherwise how can we make progress!" Wen Sheng disagreed with Lawrence's point of view.

In his opinion, the goal is very important.

The goal is the carrot hanging from the donkey's mouth. Only by chasing it can the donkey move forward!

The same is true for the team. He knows what he wants to make the team like, and this is everyone's goal.

If everyone thinks that the current situation is okay, then they are slacking off, and they are destined to not reap good fruits.

Wen Sheng also expressed his views clearly.

Debate?! Lawrence felt that he had never been Wen Sheng's opponent. Wen Sheng quickly presented the facts and reasoned, leaving him speechless.

"Then you can't be too impatient. Players need to be developed slowly, and the goal you long for cannot be achieved immediately. The only dominant team is Barcelona!"

Wen Sheng smiled, "That's right! I will relax and let's take our time."

After all, it's all about the accumulation of experience. If the players have enough experience, the game won't be so inconsistent. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad.

"Oh, this defense now..." Wen Sheng thought of the defense problem again and couldn't explain it in a word.

Except against Manchester City, Crystal Palace conceded goals in every game, which is not a good sign.

"Maybe we have to introduce defenders in the winter window!" Hawking joked.

Crystal Palace has a lot of defenders in reserve, but now they are injured one by one, and there are not many left.

"Patrick will return in January. I asked him two days ago. He has already undergone recovery training. By then, the central defender problem will not be so urgent." Lawrence shook his head.

"Brock, please contact Patrick and provide him with help! Don't injure yourself again before you come back!" Wen Sheng ordered physical coach Brock Hall.

McCarthy has now ditched the crutches, but he is unlikely to return to training immediately and is still recovering with the help of a personal trainer.

Hall's professional ability was recognized by Wen Sheng, so he hoped that Hall could intervene in McCarthy's recovery early.

Wen Sheng didn't know whether the personal trainer McCarthy hired was half-assed. Improper guidance would not be of any benefit to McCarthy's recovery.

Hall clicked, "Don't worry, I will contact him!"

"Haste makes waste!" Wen Sheng muttered, "Tell him not to hurry, we really need him now, but he can't joke about his career! Well, just say what I said!"

After giving this order, Webster suddenly interjected: "It's okay not to introduce a central defender in the winter window, but I suggest you find a qualified substitute for the forward!"

"Yes, yes... Jamie is in good condition now, but we can't take it lightly! The force on the front line is too weak!" Lawrence also said.

Wen Sheng nodded. Vardy's poor form some time ago has indeed dragged down the team. It doesn't seem right to put all the eggs in one basket!

After the coaching staff meeting, Wen Sheng called Mader and asked him to observe if there were any good candidates.

...

On October 31st, in the tenth round of the league, Crystal Palace welcomed West Brom, also a newly promoted team, at Selhurst Park at home. West Brom were also promoted, and West Brom looked even more dazzling than Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace currently has 13 points in nine rounds, but West Brom under the leadership of Di Matteo is more successful. They played really well in the league, beating Arsenal, and they were evenly matched with Manchester United. They won the League Cup.

They also defeated the big tycoon Manchester City, which was a particularly disastrous loss to Chelsea in the first round of the league.

Anyway, Wen Sheng felt that Ancelotti helped his fellow countryman and beat his fellow countryman badly in the first round. In the end, he also woke up the fellow countryman and gave him a bright light. West Brom began to gradually show his power.

Undefeated in the last eight games of the League Cup and with 15 points in the league, such an opponent is quite bluffing.

Before the game, many media believed that it was difficult to predict the outcome of this game. Crystal Palace now has the potential of a nerve knife and can fight to the death with the giants, but it has repeatedly lost points to relegation teams. It is a typical example of robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

West Brom are indeed good enough and in good shape, but the problem is that who can say for sure when they encounter the nerve knife of Crystal Palace.

Even in the initial market openings of several major gambling companies, Crystal Palace cannot be seen to have a clear advantage, and of course it cannot be called a disadvantage.

Wen Sheng himself is actually a little curious. Football coach Di Matteo is a very talented person. His West Brom team has very targeted tactics in every game. This is also the key to his success. West Brom's

In terms of overall strength, Wen Sheng doesn't think he is better than himself.

Last season in the English Championship, West Brom were stronger than Crystal Palace, but this summer Crystal Palace spent real money, and their strength is different from last year.

Speaking of Wen Sheng, we have to thank Di Matteo. During the critical period of last season's sprint to the top six in the British Championship, Crystal Palace ran into West Brom, who had no desires and desires. Obviously, that game may be unfair to other opponents.

, because Di Matteo and his team really didn't try their best.

If we really tried our best, maybe there would be no good things like Crystal Palace.

Wen Sheng told the "story" he summarized to his colleagues on the coaching staff. Lawrence and the others thought, this is not it!

If it hadn't been for someone's "disincentive", the Crystal Palace would have been in a mess!

"You're the host tonight, so you have to treat Di Matteo to a drink!" Lawrence heckled.

"Speaking of which, I really should thank them! Yes, yes, we will join in the fun together!" Hawking also said.

"Hehe, I will definitely buy him a drink after the game, but today I'll give him a try first!" Wen Shenghao said.

The words are bold, but he really has no bottom line. West Brom are in really good shape.

The boys below gave him a lot of respect. They defeated West Brom 2:0 in the home game, giving Di Matteo his first defeat in the last nine games.

And Crystal Palace also tasted clean sheets again.

"You are too persistent, Daniel!" Wen Sheng and Di Matteo sat together during a cup of tea after the game. Di Matteo was not that disappointed after losing the game. He had something to say about the issue of clean sheets.

Wen Sheng was surprised, what's going on recently, Lawrence also said I'm persistent, Di Matteo also said I'm persistent, am I really persistent?!

And doesn’t Di Matteo like clean sheets?

"Where am I so persistent?! A clean sheet is very important. This means that our defense is great. This is a team and a weak team like us has the foundation to win!" Wen Sheng explained his views again.

"But you have to know that this is England, this is the Premier League! Haha, to be honest, you are more damn Italian than me!" Di Matteo laughed, "The game here is fast-paced and the Italian-style defensive philosophy

It takes time and space. The pace of the game is too fast and it is difficult for players to form a stable system in a short period of time, unless you are willing to shrink!"

"But if you cower, you are handing your fate to the attacker!"

Di Matteo explains his analysis.

This analysis is also true. Wen Sheng also said that he can understand that during the game, the establishment of a defensive system is not something that can be established in one or two seconds, but requires more time. The Premier League's offensive and defensive transition rhythm is fast, which is not the case.

It won't give the defender much time to establish a defensive system.

Therefore, when playing in England, defense is a great test for defenders' personal abilities. They often have to face and solve defensive problems alone, rather than relying on the system.

This kind of central defender may have strong individual defense capabilities, but it has become increasingly unsuitable for the development of modern football. The England national team has not achieved any good results for many years. It is not that the players are not strong enough, but that they lack the awareness of teamwork and defense.

, defense is always difficult to form a perfect system.
