278. Wright's

The thirty-seventh round of the league is finally here. Manchester City and Tottenham had completed the make-up match in midweek. The result was wonderful for Crystal Palace. Manchester City was tied by Tottenham.

This means that as long as Crystal Palace defeats Bolton, it will qualify for the Champions League no matter what. It is just a question of whether to play in the qualifying rounds.

Bolton is indeed a kid who gives away points. Owen Coyle actually doesn't want to be like this. His team has failed to win in six or seven games, but he is also powerless. The players are too careless, and with rotation, the team

It's like his strength has changed.

In this game against Crystal Palace, Coyle also rotated, and the players were still very free and easy.

They were very free and easy, and Wen Sheng also played very free and easy. In the end, Crystal Palace came out on top and defeated the visiting Bolton Wanderers 4:2.

The result of the victory did not surprise the outside media at all. Everyone knew that Bolton was powerless.

Even better news came the next day. Arsenal fell behind, and so did Chelsea. Arsenal was defeated by Villa, who had no desire for anything, while Chelsea was tied by Hughton's Newcastle.

In this way, Crystal Palace surpassed Arsenal and actually had the same points as Chelsea, ranking third.

It was so wonderful that Wen Sheng was beaming with joy.

Next up against Manchester United, Crystal Palace felt a lot more relaxed. Even if they lost to Manchester United, they could still qualify for the Champions League. It would be better if they could draw or beat their opponents. Maybe the goal difference would surpass Chelsea and move up to second place.

Not bad.

But before facing Manchester United, Crystal Palace has to play in the Europa League final.

The Europa League final is not like the FA Cup. The FA Cup final must be held on the weekend, but this is not the case for the Europa League. Their final is scheduled for the evening of May 18, mid-week.

It can be seen how little attention is paid to the Europa League. No matter how little it is taken, it is still a very valuable honor. Wen Sheng himself did not believe that the team could go so far before. He was relatively free and easy. Now that he has come to the final, of course he wants to

After winning the championship, I was inexplicably nervous about this duel.

In fact, in the past few days, Crystal Palace had not practiced much on the tactics against Bolton. Instead, it had been concentrating on studying Porto and held several tactical meetings.

Wen Sheng is brainwashing and educating the players every day to stabilize the players' mentality. He should make everyone feel moderately nervous but not too nervous. This level is difficult to control.

Of course, Wen Sheng felt that the team was well prepared before the press conference.



Since Manchester United has already reached the Champions League final, Crystal Palace's entry into the Europa League is certainly not as good as others, but the English media are also paying close attention to them.

The press conference at Selhurst Park was also crowded with many media reporters.

England fans hope that Crystal Palace can make a good start for the British team. Many neutral fans also left messages on the website hoping that Crystal Palace can "win glory for the country"!

"Thank you very much for the support of the fans! We will do our best! I know you will ask about the probability of winning the championship, and you also know my answer, which is always 50%!" Wen Sheng started with a smile, leading captain Dery.

This is an eye-catching press conference.

Derry returned before playing Bolton and came on as a substitute in the second half. Wen Sheng will still use him as the main force in this game. This does not mean that Derry is better than Stroman now, but it is a psychological problem. Wen Sheng feels that with a veteran like Derry

Holding the line is good.

Moreover, Wen Sheng also prepared a big surprise for his opponent in this game. He will still use 4231, but he will put Klose in the attacking midfielder position and let him play as the 9th and a half, while De Bruyne will go to the side.

Road, returning to the core position on the wing at the beginning of the season.

The reporters present also smiled kindly and began to ask questions.

A reporter from "Mirror" asked Wen Sheng what he thought of Porto, who was playing against them.

Porto's record in the Europa League is much more convincing than that of Crystal Palace. The teams they encountered along the way were not weak teams. Sevilla, CSKA Moscow, and Spartak Moscow were at least less impressive than Crystal Palace.

Baba's journey was far more dazzling.

"Their defense is very solid, their offense is very sharp, and their playing style is very calm! I can imagine that the upcoming final must be a very difficult game!"

Wen Sheng's answer was concise and concise.

Porto scored a lot of goals in the knockout stages, but what Wen Sheng fears most is Porto's defense.

First of all, from the perspective of the student of Villas-Boas, this guy has been with Mourinho for many years, and his tactical thinking is definitely similar to Mourinho. Secondly, from the perspective of the league, Porto concedes very few goals. In terms of style,

The open Portuguese Super League is unique. In more than 30 league rounds, they only conceded 16 goals, and the average number of goals conceded per game was less than 0.5.

Finally, think about why Chelsea later invited Villas-Boas to coach?! It was still a matter of style.

"They scored a lot of goals in the knockout stage, but don't forget that they only conceded 16 goals in the league! Our offense must be sharper!"

The reporters quickly asked Wen Sheng about his tactics. Of course, the reporters all knew that Wen Sheng was probably following an old routine. His formation was quite deadly. He once changed into a three-back formation and was disabled. From then on, Wen Sheng

It has never changed its formation, it has always been 4231.

How could Wen Sheng talk in detail? He only said a few general words and settled the matter. Reporters also knew that it would be difficult to extract some tactical arrangements from Wen Sheng's mouth. They could just guess, but they should be inseparable anyway.

On behalf of the players, Delhi stated that the team was ready, followed Wen Sheng in answering some questions, and then the press conference came to an end.

Some reporters pointed out that both Wen Sheng and Villas-Boas may create a legend, that is, no matter who wins, he will become the youngest head coach to lead a team to win the championship in the Europa League, formerly known as the UEFA Cup.

"This is an honor for us! I think Mr. Villas-Boas and I will be proud of it!" Wen Sheng said with a smile. "As for the speech, I think maybe it would be better if we wait until after the game!"



There are quite a few people who have texted Wen Sheng and called to cheer in the past two days, and Ian Wright is one of them.

On the night after the press conference, Ian Wright called Wen Sheng and sent him support.

But after this support was over, Ian Wright actually recommended players to Wen Sheng.

Who do you recommend?!

Recommend his son Wright Jr.

Wen Sheng thought of this acquaintance. He was so close to Ian Wright and had met little Wright once or twice. Unfortunately, he had forgotten this person.

Little Wright's full name is Sean Wright Phillips. He is the adopted son of Ian Wright. When Ian Wright was young, he was very dissolute and met Little Wright's mother. Later, Little Wright

His mother became Ian's first wife, and little Wright naturally became Ian Wright's adopted son.

Ian Wright also had a stepfather when he was young, but his stepfather was not good to him.

Perhaps because of this experience, Ian Wright was very good to his adopted son Wright Jr. and always encouraged him to play football. Although Ian Wright later became a stud and his relationship with his wife was not harmonious, he still treated him well after the divorce.

Little Wright was very concerned.

Little Wright came out of Manchester City's youth training. In fact, he was small back then. No one believed that he could gain a foothold in the fierce football field. His football career as a boy was not smooth. It was Manchester City's discerning eye that kept him here.

special.

Wright's characteristics in his early years were very distinct. He was fast, had strong breakthrough ability, and was good with his feet. His weakness was his inherent disadvantage in physical confrontation. But there is no need to make a fuss about this. He did not have good confrontation ability, but he was the same as Mertens.

, if the little guy is smart, he won’t suffer too much.

Mertens moves well without the ball, while Wright has strong ball-holding ability, proving in the Premier League that small men can also make a difference.
