100. Show loyalty

Regarding the issue of Wensheng's contract, the media has been paying attention to it earlier. The interim coach led the team to achieve such good results, but he did not have the qualifications to coach a top league team. Parish promised to give Wensheng a contract, but after all

What will happen? All the words are unfounded and everyone is waiting to see the show.

Zahavi's appearance at the Crystal Palace club aroused people's imagination. Everyone thought that Zahavi represented a certain Crystal Palace player, but little did they know that Zahavi's client was Wen Sheng, a temporary coach who did not even have a top coaching certificate.

At the press conference before the second round against Nottingham Forest, there was not much focus in the second round itself. Therefore, regarding Wen Sheng's permanent appointment, the players' contract renewal issues became the focus of heated discussions among reporters.

"Of course I will stay! I am a local, my beloved hometown team! I am eager to lead the guys to new heights!" Facing reporters' questions about his future, Wen Sheng expressed his strong will in accordance with Zahavi's instructions.

Loyal and affectionate.

"Daniel, have you discussed your contract with the club?! It is said that your temporary contract will expire soon!"

"My agent is negotiating with the club, and I am very optimistic about the outcome! We have the same goals as the club, and I believe we will be able to sign a contract soon!" He answered reporters' questions according to the script.

Agent?! Since when did Wen Sheng have an agent?! The reporters looked at each other and raised their hands.

Wen Sheng generously gave the answer "Pini Zahavi"!

The reporters were all dumbfounded. It turned out that Zahavi’s client was Wen Sheng. This was really unreasonable. They knew this old man Zahavi very well. He had never represented any coach before, let alone a new player like Wen Sheng.

Man.

But it was impossible for Wen Sheng to tell lies. The reporters thought that this was going to be very lively. Zahavi had a good reputation, but he was his agent after all, and he must have had some private confrontations with Parish.

….

Parrish was also very annoyed. He didn’t know Zahavi’s name before, but now he knew very well that this person’s influence and status in the agent world was a difficult figure. He didn’t understand why Zahavi came out of nowhere inexplicably.

Became Wen Sheng's agent.

What Wayne told Wen Sheng at the beginning was right. Parrish likes Wen Sheng, but it doesn't mean that he will keep Wen Sheng at all costs. He is a businessman, and he has to take into account his own interests, which will inevitably affect the distribution of power.

, there is some disagreement with Wen Sheng in terms of salary and other aspects.

If Wen Sheng was talking in person, Parrish undoubtedly felt that he could speak eloquently and influence Wen Sheng with his emotions.

Now Zahavi comes out and Wen Sheng hides behind, making the matter difficult to handle.

Not only did Wen Sheng respond enthusiastically to the news about staying at the press conference, his agent Pini Zahavi, who is extremely low-key, also made an appearance.

"We are indeed negotiating with the club, Mr Parish loves Daniel, the Palace fans love Daniel, the players love Daniel and Daniel loves them! Daniel will stay at Crystal Palace! I don't think he will leave! I am very happy with the negotiations.

Feeling very optimistic about the results!”

Wen Sheng and Zahavi kept expressing their loyalty, but Parrish was embarrassed to say that he now felt that he was in a passive position.

He can't say that Zahavi is delaying him. Once this kind of thing is made public, it will mean a rift. If Wen Sheng completes the upgrade in the next ten days or so and wins the FA Cup, his reputation in Crystal Palace will definitely be at its peak and everyone will love him.

, as the chairman, he will definitely be criticized by Crystal Palace fans. Anyway, if he cannot retain Wen Sheng and fulfill his promise, he will be the biggest sinner.

So fucking fucked!

Thinking of Zahavi's amiable face, Parrish really wanted to slap him.

On May 15, in the second round of the English Championship play-offs, Nottingham Forest faced Crystal Palace at the City Stadium. Nottingham Forest fans experienced a roller coaster ride this season.

Until December last year, they were still in second place, tightly clinging to Newcastle. By May, the team was already in third place, 20 points behind Newcastle. In the play-offs, they faced the sixth-placed Crystal Palace.

Very good to sign.

Although Crystal Palace struggled to score points in the second half of the season, Nottingham Forest fans firmly believed that their opponents were not as good as them.

The draw drew another guest, then home, which is a good schedule, most people think so.

However, at Selhurst Park, the home team was so beaten that they were unconscious and there was no need to play in the second round.

The fans scolded the players for being shameless and not investing enough on the court. However, the fans still packed the City Stadium for the second round. They were loyal and "brave"!

The players of Nottingham Forest feel guilty. For them, the promotion play-offs have failed. This game is more like a battle of honor. At least it must be worthy of the home fans.

Wen Sheng thought he would be violently "attacked" by Nottingham Forest fans, but who knew they didn't abuse him, which made him a little uncomfortable.

"We didn't win the game by any dishonorable means. Why should they be dissatisfied? We're just not as skilled as others!" Hawking explained, "They won't hate us if our skills are inferior to others!"

In the second round, Wen Sheng made some adjustments to the personnel. The young player Zaha was put into the starting lineup. This was a training opportunity for him. In the FA Cup, Wen Sheng had already decided to let Zaha play. This game should be regarded as

Give Zaha more experience to warm up for the FA Cup.

Crystal Palace's strategy in this game is to defend and counterattack, plus try to control the ball as much as possible. To put it bluntly, this game is a warm-up for the FA Cup.

After the game started, Nottingham Forest was very aggressive and aggressive. They still used a diamond midfielder and two forwards, but the key point was that the formation was advanced and the full-backs provided assists much more frequently.

Crystal Palace's defense started in the center circle. Unlike the high-position pressing in the last game, today everyone competed in the midfield.

Nottingham Forest is in better shape. The players at Crystal Palace are not too engaged. Wen Sheng can't blame him. It's not worthwhile to get injured. The next two games are much more important than this one. He is just worried about this game.

If your warm-up goals are not achieved, the tactical arrangements cannot be realized.

In the first round, Crystal Palace surrounded and bombarded its opponents, while in this round, Nottingham Forest sat at home and bombarded Crystal Palace, but the difference between the two was still obvious.

In the first round, Crystal Palace shot for the sake of scoring, but in this round, Nottingham Forest seemed to shoot for the sake of scoring. The ball always wanted to be sent into the Crystal Palace penalty area.

Those are the two forwards. Their opponents have become the partners of McCarthy and Davis, but they are still unable to get too many opportunities. Nottingham Forest's shots are mainly long-range shots, and they are very impatient.

Crystal Palace didn't have many chances to counterattack. They lost power in the midfield and couldn't pass long passes from the backcourt.

The score was 0:0 in the first half. Nottingham Forest completed more than ten shots, but they should have felt sweaty that they only had two shots on target.

The fans of Nottingham Forest booed the players from the beginning of the second half. They booed Crystal Palace for being shameless and booing their own players for not being able to score a goal no matter what.

Perhaps the boos from the players gave the Nottingham Forest players extra motivation. They finally broke the deadlock in the 67th minute of the second half and rewritten the total score to 1:7, but this was far from enough.

In the end, the game was 2:0. Nottingham Forest managed to save a little face by playing at home. Crystal Palace naturally played poorly, neither defensively nor offensively.

However, Wen Sheng defended the players after the game, "The team is too tired!"

He didn't even believe what he said, let alone the reporters. Oh my god, you guys have been resting for a long time, a week, so you should be relieved after all!
Chapter completed!
