Wen Sheng didn't care. He felt that he was taking it easy. The key was that he could feel that the players were worried about this game.

When he came back from the warm-up, he saw that there were no smiles on everyone's faces. He couldn't help but complain in his heart, what's the matter?!

When everyone comes in, everyone changes their equipment.

Wen Sheng then asked slowly: "Guys! What's wrong?!"

"You can't even say a word?! This locker room is usually very lively! Why are you all like this today?! It looks like you are very nervous?!"

"Are you intimidated by Arsenal?! Or is this game too important and you can't bear the pressure?!"

No one said a word.

Zaha has also grown up, and is not as heartless as before. She did not say a word at this time, and Kanter, who has been mute for thousands of years, is even more silent.

"Everyone stop! Guys, listen to what I have to say!"

Wen Sheng's tone was not harsh, but gentle.

The players stopped one after another and looked at Wen Sheng.

"Listen to me, guys! This is all the result of external media hype! Guess what I think?!" Wen Sheng said...

"This game is not as important as the outside world publicizes it! At least in my eyes, it is really not that important. Currently, Chelsea has 58 points, Arsenal has 59 points, and Manchester City has 55 points..." Wen Sheng listed the points in the standings.

The above situation shows that the points difference between the teams competing for the top four spots is not large.

"Everyone's ranking may change with one win! There are still seven rounds in the league. If we lose this game, we still have a chance to play six games!" Wen Sheng raised his finger.

"I know, some of you must be saying that we can't win all the remaining six games! Okay! I want to ask you, what about the teams competing with us?! Can they all win every game?

Win?"

"The future is uncertain! Guys!"

"In that case, why not try to relax! Guys, relax and enjoy this game! You know we only have two chances to play against Arsenal this year!"

"You don't need to think about winning or losing. You just need to complete the work according to my tactical requirements. Do you understand?!"

"Okay! Listen to me! Grinning! Relax and enjoy the game!"

Wen Sheng always refuted the importance of this game in a relaxed tone, and I have to say that the players listened a lot.

Captain Derry said to everyone: "Yes! The boss is right! Let your hands and feet go and fuck!!"

"Yes! Do it!"

…..

Everyone finally became angry.

Wen Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief. It was not a good idea to go to the battlefield carrying heavy ideological baggage.

Opposite Arsenal have been competing for the title for many years, but they often fall short at critical moments. This has something to do with the fact that the players are too young and sometimes feel too much pressure.

Now they are losing their footing, causing themselves to be distanced by Manchester United.

Giving the players the last few minutes of space, Wen Sheng and Lawrence walked out of the locker room and walked directly to the stadium.

The fans at the venue were almost full, and the cheerleaders were still dancing enthusiastically on the sidelines.

Wen Sheng strolled out and was immediately cheered by the fans. He is a very popular head coach here. There were many die-hard fans in the side stands holding up flags with Wen Sheng's bust and waving them vigorously.

Wen Sheng smiled and kept waving to the fans with his hands raised.

He was greeted with even more enthusiastic cheers from the fans.

The cheers gradually died down until Wen Sheng sat down in the coaching bench.

After sitting bored for a few minutes, Wen Sheng looked at his watch. It was almost time, and he kept looking at the entrance of the passage.

After watching it three times, he finally saw Wenger. He quickly got up from the coaching bench and said hello to Wenger.

"Hi, Arsène, welcome to Selhurst!" Wen Sheng stretched out his hand.

"Hi, Daniel! Nice to see you again!" Wenger said with a smile.

How to say it in front of the media is one thing, but the relationship in private is another matter. Wen Sheng and Wenger are coaches who have a good relationship in private. Although in front of the media, Wenger said before this game

You may say this or that, but it is all psychological warfare. Everyone understands this and will not care too much about it.

The last time the two met was at the Emirates Stadium in the first half of the season. After the game, Wenger actually invited Capello to have a drink with him. As a result, Wenger was not very happy.

So Wen Sheng joked next: "Maybe Capello didn't come with you today!"

One sentence really made Wenger laugh.

Damn it, it was just a coincidence that day, okay?! I really didn’t mean it!

"He said he was not free today!" Wenger also laughed.

"That's great!" Wen Sheng looked delighted, and then added something subtle, "We at Selhurst are a small venue, so tell the players not to take too big a step, as it can easily lead to trouble!"

Wen Sheng actually translated it into English, and Wenger almost died laughing after hearing it and thinking about it.

What kind of bullshit is there to hide needles in cotton wool, and it won’t have any effect at all.

But what Wen Sheng said is true. Selhurst Park, the home of Crystal Palace, is a famous small stadium in the Premier League, 67 meters wide and 100 meters long.

The FA specifies that the minimum width of each team's pitch shall not be less than 45 meters and the length shall not be less than 90 meters, while the maximum requirements are that the width shall not be greater than 90 meters, the length shall not be greater than 120 meters, and the length must be greater than the width.

Their official recommended pitch size is a 68-meter by 105-meter pitch, and Crystal Palace did not meet the recommended standard.

As far as Crystal Palace's playing style is concerned, they attach great importance to the two wings. The wider the court, the better. Of course, they are a team that is more accustomed to defending, so the narrower the court, the better. There is a contradiction between the two.

Therefore, the home of Crystal Palace has never been a devilish home. The most goals come from away games. Since Wen Sheng took over, the most goals they have scored have been against Blackburn. Blackburn's stadium is larger than Crystal Palace, with a length of 105 meters and a width of 69.5 meters.

rice.

Arsenal's offensive style of play also relies on the wing, and they are very accustomed to using wing routines, so the small stadium of Crystal Palace has to be said to be one of the factors that affects their performance.

Wensheng will focus on defensive counterattacks today, so the court is more favorable to them.

After hearing Wen Sheng's "joke", Wenger and Wen Sheng said goodbye temporarily, "I wish you good luck!"

"Good luck to you too!"

…

"What did you tell Wenger?! He smiled very happily!" Hawking is a curious baby.

"I told him that Selhurst was too small, and their players would easily break their balls if they ran too fast!" Wen Sheng said with an expressionless face.

Hawking and the others couldn't help laughing on the coaching bench.

Hawking was the first to spot the problem.

"Excuse me, is there any connection between the stadium being too small and the pulling of balls?!"

Wen Sheng thought, let me go, yes, what is the inevitable connection between this?! What is the inevitable connection between this?!

He felt as if he had taken the initiative to embarrass himself!

Players from both sides played under the leadership of the referee team. The referee on duty was Lee Mason. He is now in his forties and has been practicing in the Premier League for several years. He has plenty of experience, but blindness is a common problem for Premier League referees. Assistant referee Matthew

.Bennett and Adrian Holmes, fourth official Mike Dean.

Crystal Palace sent out the 4231 formation as usual today.

Goalkeeper: Speroni

Defenders: Klein, Benatia, McCarthy, Hills

Midfielder: Delhi, Kante

Attacking midfielder: De Bruyne, Vardy, Mertens

Forward: Klose

During this period of time in Crystal Palace, the injury problem has been alleviated and players have returned to the team one after another. Wen Sheng has more available personnel. Klose is in very good condition and Vardy is also recovering. He is reluctant to replace anyone. Wen Sheng simply lets the two players play in this game.

Everyone played, and it’s not like Vardy has never played on the wing.

Today Vardy's main task is to score goals, not pass the ball. His passing skills are too average and he is becoming more and more like an assassin. Wen Sheng deliberately placed him on the wing to rely on his speed to suppress the opponent's wing.

The defender's pressure was to attack Arsenal unprepared. I thought Klose was the arrow. In fact, I let Klose do the ball and Vardy came to attack.
Chapter completed!
