Martinez did not express any emotion about Wen Sheng's idea of ​​"treating others the way they want to be treated".

When a player faces an empty goal, there is a certain probability that it will miss, and when a player takes a long shot outside the penalty area, he is more likely to score.

Conceding a goal is bad, but Martinez is more concerned about the fact that he did not do enough in tactical design.

For De Bruyne, he is very unfamiliar. Crystal Palace has inexplicably introduced such a young player from the Belgian League who is under 20 years old. No matter how good his data is, he is only from the Belgian League!

Compared to Mertens on the other side, Martinez has obviously paid more attention, but now De Bruyne seems to be telling him that I am the protagonist.

"I shouldn't have let him get the ball so comfortably!" Martinez, who regretted it, immediately changed his defensive attitude towards De Bruyne.

"Stick to him!"

"Don't let him find space to pass easily!"

Martinez stood on the sidelines and directed his players to strengthen their defense against De Bruyne.

De Bruyne tried several times, but he felt that he was trapped in a tight siege and was in a bit of trouble. It was definitely not enough to rely on the support of Boateng alone.

Wen Sheng is also anxious, Mertens has no performance, the team is lame in attacking now, if De Bruyne misfires, this offense will really be impossible to play!

"Damn it, didn't you do a good job during training?!" Wen Sheng couldn't help but curse in his heart, but he also knew that how could training be compared with actual combat?!

Actual physical confrontation and passing restrictions are much better than training.

Wigan did a good job in limiting De Bruyne, but they struggled to make progress offensively. Movement warfare was not what they were good at. In addition, the two forwards were both signed, and their tacit understanding was poor.

The Argentinian veteran staged overlapping moves several times, which made their offense weak.

"A bad pass..."

"Sean Derry made a passing error...Kante made a steal, beautiful, he killed the opponent's counterattack!"

It's always easy to make mistakes when the ball reaches the frontcourt, and Martin Taylor doesn't know how many mistakes he made in his mouth!

Both teams did a good job controlling the ball in the backcourt, but there were too few troops invested in the frontcourt, so mistakes were inevitable.

As the home team, Martinez still tried to let his team press out and attack, but after all, it was only a small taste and he still didn't let go.

The halftime whistle sounded and both sides entered the halftime break.

The performance of both sides in the first half was average. Crystal Palace could defend but not attack well. Wigan was similar to Crystal Palace and still couldn't get any good opportunities offensively.

Before the game, many media believed that this rookie pecking match was destined to be a defensive competition. The ambitious Martinez certainly didn't think so. He was more proactive than Wen Sheng. However, the team's strength was limited and they did not play well in sports battles.

Ugly or not, what does this matter?

Wen Sheng doesn't care, what he cares about is that the team is ahead now.

"Well done, guys! They will probably think now that they will never lose this game at home, but I think you will tell them that they will lose this game, right?!" Wen Sheng smiled.

Look at your team members.

"right!"

"Very good!" Wen Sheng nodded with satisfaction.

The team's morale is still very good.

"Do you know what we were best at last season?" Wen Sheng asked everyone.

Needless to say, it is of course a counterattack. Their counterattack is simply a unique scene in the English Championship.

"Counterattack, yes it is counterattack! If they dare to attack in the second half, we will counterattack!" Wen Sheng loudly announced the main theme of the second half, "Defend deeper and attract them to come! Two Kevins!"

Speaking of "two Kevins", Wen Sheng always feels awkward. The team's recruitment is also a strange thing. Three Kevins have been introduced one after another, Kevin De Bruyne, Kevin Boateng, Kevin...

Stroman.

"I always feel that it's so awkward to call you by your names!" Wen Shengsheng said helplessly.

Everyone burst into laughter, Boateng laughed too, and De Bruyne blushed in embarrassment.

It was actually quite painful for everyone to call him "Prince" during this period. Most of the players in the team called Boateng "Prince", which is his middle name.

"If one is named Prince and the other is named Kevin, wouldn't it be over?!" Hawking said, "Do you have any objections to the two Kevins?!"

"No, one is called Prince, and De Bruyne, how about I call him Ding Ding?!" Wen Sheng said, "Don't forget, we also have Kevin!"

"I have no objection, boss!" Boateng responded with a smile.

In fact, when Wen Sheng celebrated his goal in the first half, he said the word "Tintin". Lawrence and the others reacted quickly. The Adventures of Tintin is also a well-known comic book, written by the Belgian Hergé. This background is sufficient

It shows that what Wen Sheng said about De Bruyne at the time is indeed true now.

De Bruyne nodded, he could accept this nickname.

"Okay, this interruption, I don't even know what I just said!" Wen Sheng clapped his hands, "Prince, Ding Ding, you have to increase long-distance passes in the second half and hit behind their defense! I know their

The defense is also deeper, but you still have to do this and make good use of Jamie's movement!"

"Jamie, don't retreat too deep and hold on to their defense!"

"Dries, don't always hang around on the wing, try running towards the center! You performed very well in the Eredivisie and your shooting ability is not bad. You should move more towards the center, move flexibly and try to get more shots."

!”

"Anyway, I hope you will shoot more, no matter who it is! It doesn't matter if you are farther away, don't always try to send the ball into their penalty area!"

It is not easy to always try to send the ball into Wigan's penalty area, and the team lacks the kind of center forward who stands upright. Vardy is a British forward and naturally has header skills, but with his size, unless

The opportunity is indeed good, otherwise he will always be the one who suffers when fighting for the top in the penalty area.

Therefore, the Crystal Palace under Wen Sheng rarely makes lob passes, half-lobs, and ground balls.

After finishing the tactical arrangements in a few minutes, Hawking took the substitutes to the court to warm up while the main players rested.

Wen Sheng called Mertens aside. Mertens almost disappeared in the first half and did not play well.

Mertens is also very nervous. It's not that he doesn't adapt to Wen Sheng's tactics, but he is uncomfortable with the rhythm of the Premier League game. There are too many physical confrontations. Others simply don't give him a chance to get the ball comfortably and often use their bodies to squeeze him. He

Unable to gain a foothold, he gradually became a little wary of Wigan's defense and stayed away from it.

"Relax, Driss!" Wen Sheng whispered to Mertens, "You have the strength, but you haven't found the trick to deal with them yet! Don't wait where you are when you catch the ball, because they won't make you comfortable.

To get the ball, you have to run, understand?! Run, just like I said!"

"Don't limit your activity space too much. You have forgotten my expectations for you. I hope you can become a scoring point!"

Mertens nodded.

"It's normal to have an adaptation period, and I won't be harsh on you, so don't put so much pressure on yourself, interpret the game well, and play relaxed!"

In addition to comfort, Wen Sheng is still comfort. Mertens is capable, but there is still a question mark whether he can adapt to the Premier League. If he can't adapt, then he can only give up. Time waits for no one.

"I will give you 20 minutes in the second half! After 20 minutes, I will make a substitution!"

Wen Sheng finally said that appropriate pressure should be given.

Mertens nodded again and acquiesced to Wen Sheng's arrangement. He also understood that giving himself twenty minutes was not bad. If another coach had changed, he might have been kicked off at halftime.

There was no time. Wen Sheng originally wanted to say a few words to Onyewu, but everyone had already come out. Wen Sheng had to remind Onyewu at the door not to be nervous. He performed very well in the first half.

Wen Sheng was curious about Martinez's response strategy in the second half. He didn't know what tricks Martinez would use. This person has a very deep research on tactics and is very flexible in formation changes. In the first half, Martinez played 442, and in the second half, Martinez played 442.
