259: Reach the top of the list and regain the initiative!
Two to one!
Crystal Palace reversed West Bromwich Albion at their home stadium, Selhurst Park, and won this make-up victory, gaining a crucial three points.
At the end of the game, the Crystal Palace fans were so excited that their bodies were shaking!
So excited!
They felt that their entire bodies were burning, almost burning them completely.
Of course, more people were so excited that tears filled their eyes, and they even wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound. It felt like their bodies were floating in the air and they didn't know where they were!
So cool!
Inside the stadium, the Crystal Palace players rushed out collectively to skate and kneel, screaming with excitement.
This is really great!
It felt like the soul of the spiritual platform was trembling, reaching a state of resonance between humans and gods.
Tong Yi on the sidelines was also very excited, waving his fists excitedly. The adjustment in the second half of the game was really timely.
Yes, during the halftime break, Tong Yi made adjustments to the tactics for the second half of the game.
The team is no longer crazy about sending crosses from two wings and letting Ignacio go crazy bombing West Bromwich Albion; nor is it letting Goretzka, Casemiro and Kante and others go crazy far.
Shoot, come and break the defense.
Tong Yi asked the offensive players to stick to their feet, hold the ball, and break through.
Especially when they go to the ribs of the two penalty areas to break through with the ball, because the opponent's back line is really too tall, and their air defense ability and frontal interception ability are actually very good. But their turning and flexibility are very good.
Too bad, as long as people like Mane and Salah are allowed to attack them in turn, they will definitely make mistakes.
Sure enough, didn't Salah seize two opportunities? He directly broke through West Bromwich Albion's defense and scored two goals!
Although Mane didn't have much chance, his successive breakthroughs still put a lot of pressure on West Bromwich Albion's defense, which made their defense focus on one thing at the expense of the other, and indirectly gave Salah a chance.
Of course, it was not just these two people who broke through crazily with the ball on the Crystal Palace side. The two full-backs Robertson and Aurier who came up from the side also broke through frequently, and Goretzka also took turns holding the ball to attack, which allowed the goalkeeper to break through.
West Bromwich Albion's defense was overwhelmed.
This is the key to the collapse of Macaulay and Dawson.
Of course, Irving's reaction was still much slower. Their adjustment was really too slow, which gave the Crystal Palace people a chance.
Seeing this, everyone should understand why West Bromwich Albion's senior management is changing coaches!
Owen's ability to customize tactics before games is pretty good, but his ability to adapt on the spot is still far behind. This is why West Bromwich Albion's lineup seems to be weak this season, but the results are not.
The reason for the special alley. It was because of Owen's lack of on-the-spot response that West Bromwich Albion lost a lot of points. If this were not the case, West Bromwich Albion would very likely have directly entered the European qualification zone this season. It is impossible to say that they would still be in the qualifying zone.
Can we qualify for the European competition?
What a pity!
It seems that West Bromwich Albion can't stand Owen any more and have decisively chosen to change coaches. They have already negotiated with Pulis and will wait until the end of this season before Pulis takes office.
After the game, Irving said to the media reporters, "Crystal Palace is indeed very strong. This is a bit beyond our expectations. This is also the key reason why we lost. It's all my fault."
, I found that Crystal Palace changed its tactical intentions much later. If we had made adjustments earlier, West Bromwich Albion would not have lost this game. What a pity!"
Reporters from all the media nodded their heads one after another. They all felt that Irving's self-understanding was very correct.
Irving continued, "I realized my own problems this season, and I must improve on on-the-spot command. Therefore, I will definitely improve this aspect in the next games. You wait for me, this offseason
I will try my best to improve myself in the future, and I will be even stronger when I come back next season. Next season, I will not let you down again. I will definitely lead West Bromwich Albion into the European Theater and at least win the
If you get a spot in the Europa League, please believe me!"
Yes, Irving has already made plans for the offseason and started working hard for next season.
The media reporters nodded one after another. They were still willing to believe in Owen. This guy is good. Maybe he can really lead West Bromwich Albion to qualify for the Europa League next season.
But will West Bromwich Albion still be the head coach of Owen next season?
After all, at this time, there are already rumors that West Bromwich Albion are preparing to change coaches. The names of several coaches have been linked to West Bromwich Albion. I wonder if this is true?
If it is true, then Owen will have no chance to coach West Bromwich Albion again!
However, now it seems that Irving is still very confident, as if he thinks he will not be fired. He is full of expectations and confidence for the new season.
When Tong Yi saw this, he also silently blessed Owen and hoped that his wishes would come true!
To be honest, Tong Yi also thinks that Owen is actually good, has his own ideas, and is capable. Unfortunately, his shortcomings are indeed very obvious. It is actually very difficult to improve his shortcomings.
, one summer may not be enough to succeed.
However, it’s great if people have this understanding and courage.
Tong Yi is still quite concerned about Irving’s future.
expected!
Irving continued, "Crystal Palace's performance this season is really great. Last season, everyone thought Crystal Palace was just a dark horse when they won the championship. This season, they will definitely be beaten back to their original form. But Crystal Palace's results this season are really...
Great, they have proven that they are not a dark horse, but a super strong team! I think that Crystal Palace must have a place in England's new big4, and they will definitely become a new force and a new giant in the Premier League in the future!"
Owen's evaluation of Crystal Palace is very high, which surprised many media reporters.
But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case.
Crystal Palace has proven this season that they are not a short-lived dark horse, they are a strong team. If Crystal Palace continues to be so strong, Crystal Palace will really have a place in the future Premier League Big 4.
Crystal Palace is really amazing!
This guy Tong Yi is really awesome!
Tong Yi naturally accepted interviews from media reporters at this time. He said, "Today's game is really very suspenseful and very difficult! West Bromwich Albion showed super level and strength, which made
We have seen that their 3-0 victory over Chelsea was not luck or a fluke, he does not have the strength!"
hiss!
All the media reporters were holding back their laughter. At this time, Tong Yi still didn’t forget to describe Chelsea. It’s really interesting! I wonder what the Chelsea people’s reaction was when they heard this? Do they want to describe Tong Yi?
A crazy meal?
Tong Yi also said, "West Bromwich Albion caused us a lot of trouble. At one time, we at Crystal Palace thought we were going to lose. Their strength is really good. If they have a midfielder with good organizational skills,
On the field, I think it is not a fantasy for them to qualify for the European competition. Their forward combination is actually very unique and strong, and their defense is not particularly weak. They are really promising!"
Tong Yi is not complimenting his opponent, nor is he carrying a sedan chair. This is the truth in his heart. Of course, if West Bromwich Albion wants to really rise, the premise is that it can retain its current status while ensuring signings.
Use the same team, otherwise, no matter how much support you bring in, it will be in vain.
In Tong Yi's view, West Bromwich Albion cannot live in a place where people can live.
Especially Berahino!
This guy is a very high-spirited being. He obviously wants to go to a wealthy club. He will definitely have conflicts with West Bromwich Albion and will definitely leave the team in the end.
Therefore, it is actually quite difficult for West Bromwich Albion to really rise.
More importantly, Owen may not be able to continue to be the coach of West Bromwich Albion.
Therefore, West Bromwich Albion should be very difficult next season.
Tong Yi said, "The one who won this game Victory, our Crystal Palace has finally reached the top of the Premier League again. Thank you to my players and their efforts. Without them, our Crystal Palace will definitely not be able to achieve the results we have now. These are all their contributions."
Shhhhhhhh!
Hearing these words, Chelsea fans almost went crazy. They dissed Tong Yi crazily and even cursed Tong Yi. They hated damn Tong Yi so much, Tong Yi is trash!
Tong Yi continued, "Of course, we have indeed surpassed Chelsea at this time, and we have indeed reached the top of the Premier League. But this does not mean that our Crystal Palace will definitely win the Premier League championship this season. We still have
It’s a long way to go, and this last round of games will be very difficult, and that’s the real test for us at Crystal Palace!”
One can only imagine how much psychological pressure the Crystal Palace players will be under in the next game.
Will the Crystal Palace players be able to treat the next game with a normal attitude? Will they be timid in playing? Will they be affected by the changes in Chelsea's game and affect the rhythm of their own game?
Can the young Crystal Palace players handle the pressure and keep their minds steady?
It’s hard to say this!
Tong Yi is right, the next round of competition is the real test.
Tong Yi said, "I don't have many requirements for the next game. I just hope that our Crystal Palace players can maintain a normal mind, treat this game as we usually treat the league, play relaxedly, and have fun playing football!"
Yes, Tong Yi wants to relieve the pressure on his players.
But the effect is unknown!
However, in any case, at this time, Crystal Palace has reached a very good position. They now have the initiative. As long as they do not make mistakes, they will successfully defend the Premier League championship.
Because, after the 33rd round of make-up games of the Premier League in the 2014-2015 season, the standings are as follows
The first place became Crystal Palace, with a record of 26 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses, and 82 points.
The second-ranked team has been replaced by Chelsea. Their record is 24 wins, 9 draws and 4 losses, with 81 points.
Ranked third is still Manchester City, with a record of 22 wins, 7 draws and 8 losses, and 73 points.
Ranked fourth is still Arsenal, with a record of 20 wins, 9 draws and 8 losses, with 69 points.
…
Yes, after this round of games, Crystal Palace overtook Chelsea by one point and topped the list of the Premier League in the 2014-2015 season. At this time, Crystal Palace took the initiative back into its own hands. As long as in the final round of games, Crystal Palace
With victory, they will surely win the Premier League championship for the second consecutive season.
