402. Tottenham 1
On the morning of Friday, Crystal Palace held a pre-match press conference at Bekenham Training Base.
Of course, the first thing the reporters "care about" is the team's state and morale. Everyone understands that the FA Cup was almost abandoned by Wen Sheng, but after all, after all, Crystal has also lost two consecutive times recently.
"I feel very good now! I am also quite satisfied with the team's preparations! Everyone is in good spirits!" Wen Sheng had a smile on his face, looking confident.
Today, the team's deputy McCarthy was accompanied by Wen Sheng to attend the press conference. Captain Delhi was very unlucky. The veteran was injured again in the FA Cup against Birmingham last weekend. Delhi often suffered injuries this season. After this injury, Delhi painfully admitted in front of Wen Sheng that he seemed to be really old and finally made up his mind to go to China next season. Of course, he would not leave in the winter window because Crystal Palace has a chance to win the league championship this season. Delhi obviously does not want to miss the winning moment.
Delhi was injured, so Wensheng asked McCarthy and Speroni to take turns to attend the press conference instead of Delhi. Today is McCarthy.
When the reporters threw the problem to McCarthy, McCarthy also said: "We were hit hard by the loss to Chelsea and Birmingham! We must respond positively in the next game and prove that we deserve to be on the top spot!"
Wensheng smiled and nodded in approval.
"Wen, some people think the schedule is unfair to Manchester City. They are scheduled to play on Sunday. What do you think about this?!" A reporter from the Daily Mail asked.
Now Crystal Palace and Manchester City are quite a bit of a full-scale battle. Manchester United and Tottenham are not far from Crystal Palace, and they have a chance to compete for the league championship. However, who made Crystal Palace and Manchester City the eldest and second? In addition, they inexplicably started fighting in the transfer market, which led to reporters clearly interviewing Crystal Palace and insisting on getting involved in Manchester City.
If nothing unexpected happens, Manchester City will definitely bring Crystal Palace to the pre-match press conference.
"What can I think?!" Wensheng was helpless, "I am not a Premier League company, a league, or a FA! I can't do anything!"
The reporters in the audience laughed softly.
"The schedule was determined a few months ago. No one expected that we would have a fierce competitive relationship with Manchester City. Now because of this fierce competitive relationship, some people complained that the schedule made a few months ago was inappropriate! Do you think this statement is reasonable? Anyway, I think this is nonsense!" Wen Sheng hugged his hand in front of his chest.
"Wen, did you just say that there is a fierce competitive relationship between you and Manchester City, including the Bridge incident?!" asked the Times reporter.
"It seems a bit inappropriate to discuss the players of other teams, but we have expressed our views and we are indeed interested in Bridge, but we will fully respect Manchester City clubs!" Wensheng replied.
"It is reported that before the FA Cup match against Birmingham, you met with the Queen Rangers' head coach Mr. Warnock. Are you talking to him about Tarabut's deal? We all know that Tarabut is one of Manchester City's goals!" A reporter from the Guardian raised his hand and asked.
"No! We talked a lot, but we didn't talk about Tarabut! My relationship with Neil is well known, so it's normal for us to have dinner together! Please don't make a fuss!" Wensheng flatly denied.
The reporters would not believe such nonsense, but Wen Sheng did not care whether they believed it or not!
After talking about this, Wen Sheng continued: "Everyone, this is a pre-match press conference against Tottenham. Why do you always surround Manchester City?! If you want to ask more about Manchester City, you can attend Manchester City's press conference. I don't know much about them and I can't answer your questions! I feel sorry!"
At Wen Sheng's request, these reporters finally turned the topic to Tottenham with tactful tact.
The reporters were concerned about before the game, just the team's injuries and how to deal with the core players of Tottenham Hotspur.
The hottest player in Tottenham is Bale. Although his data in the first half didn't seem particularly good, his impact did help Tottenham. By January, he was in good shape, with goals in the Premier League and the FA Cup.
"We don't need to do anything deliberately! I think we can put enough pressure on them!" McCarthy was arrogant, and Wensheng smiled in his heart and said to him.
Crystal Palace attaches great importance to Bale's existence, and the team has made a series of targeted settings to limit Tottenham's wings in tactics.
McCarthy learned the essence of Wen Sheng's sentence "We must despise the enemy strategically, and we must respect the enemy tactically." He did not show any weakness at all at the press conference.
Of course, Wensheng will not show weakness. "Bale is of course a talented player, but Tottenham has many good players, Modric, Van der Fate, Lennon, Adebayo, etc. They are all great! We not only have to limit Bale, we need to pay full attention to Tottenham's team!"
"You will know the specific tactical arrangements then!"
......
Lao Lei and Wensheng are also fellow villagers in England. They are from London and their relationship is OK.
At the press conference, Lao Lei also said a lot of good things about Wen Sheng, praising Wen Sheng as one of the best head coaches in England. However, the reporters were too ignorant of the times. At this pre-match press conference, he actually talked about various disputes between Crystal Palace and Manchester City, which made Lao Lei comment.
Lao Lei was so amused and crying. What's my business?!
When he met Wensheng on the game day, Lao Lei talked about this interesting thing. He asked Wensheng if he was very interested in Tarabut and hinted that he could help him too!
Wen Shengxin said that you can be fake if you are old! I believe you will have a ghost!
Lao Lei is in power in Tottenham, and he introduced Tarabut, and he did not give Tarabut the chance, and he sold it. With his toes, you can think that Tarabut must have a bad sense of Lao Lei.
Wen Sheng concluded that Lao Lei was just pretending to be fine and had nothing to say to him.
"It's Manchester City who is interested in him! We don't have such plans!" Wen Sheng smiled, "But thank you very much! Harry!"
After a few jokes, the two of them returned to their own positions and waited for the start of the game.
Tottenham's formation today is 4411, you can also regard him as 433 or 451.
Goalkeeper: Friedel
Defender: Walker, Dawson, Cabool, Ector
Midfielder: Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale
Front Middle: Van der Fate
Forward: Adebayo
Parker and Adebayo joined Tottenham this summer with a new transfer. Parker was over 30 years old and spent 5 million pounds to Tottenham. Adebayo came on loan from the wealthy Manchester City. After these two players integrated into the team in the new season, they brought great improvements to Tottenham.
So sometimes it is better to buy the right ones than to buy expensive ones. Lao Lei made some inexplicable transfers in the past two years, but this season with Levi's strong intervention, Tottenham seemed to have regained his shrewdness.
Parker became famous a long time ago. He was a player who was once called the British Star. He played for London giant Chelsea. Unfortunately, he did not realize his talent due to injury during Chelsea. Later, he went to West Ham United. As he grew older, he began to increase his ball and was the core of West Ham's midfield.
After coming to Tottenham this season, he quickly settled in the main position under Lao Lei and was selected as the best player in the team in November.
As for Adebayo, this Tottenham Hotspur arch-rival player seems to have also improved the goal, performed quite well, and scored a lot of goals and assists.
As usual, Crystal Palace is 4231.
Goalkeeper: Speroni
Defenders: Marjo, Benatia, McCarthy, Larson
Middleback: Stroman, Kant
Attacking midfielder: Mertens, De Bruyne, Aubameyang
Forward: Cloze
Wensheng's team encountered a little injury. In addition to Delhi's injury, Mkhitaryan had some minor injuries and Van Dijk also suffered, but it was not serious.
The injury-free Vardy was placed on the bench, and Wensheng used veteran Klose to hit the single arrow.
Chapter completed!
