178. Manchester City is coming

On October 17, Selhurst Park, the holy place of Crystal Palace fans, was packed with people. Everyone was drinking wine, bragging and waiting patiently for the start of the game.

In the home team's locker room, Wen Sheng is making pre-match preparations. Today the Crystal Palace faces a powerful enemy - Manchester City, backed by the oil dad, but Wen Sheng is sure that he and the team are ready.

"We have won four consecutive games, are you afraid?!" Wen Sheng asked everyone.

"Not afraid!" the players replied happily.

"Let me just say, after all, we are killers of wealthy families!" Wen Sheng teased everyone. Of course, everyone's confidence also comes from the fact that they are not afraid of playing against wealthy families so far this season.

So the players from Crystal Palace are really not afraid of the upstart.

But the current situation in the team makes Wen Sheng a little worried. On the day of the national team match, three generals went out, Onyewu, Boateng and Mertens. It was so difficult to survive. These two people were really coincidental.

Injured in the national team, Onyewu is expected to be diagnosed in about a month, and Boateng will need about ten days to recover.

There is nothing wrong with Onyewu. Wen Shengben will not let him start today. He will continue to use the center back combination of Benatia and Morgan.

The problem is Boateng. Boateng is the top scorer in the Crystal Palace team in the new season. Who in the media in England would have thought that Wen Sheng had a unique eye and trained Boateng into a killer. Now Boateng

Teng is also a hot new star. On the German "Transfer Market" website, Boateng's value is also rising sharply.

Vardy is in a sluggish state, and Alan Lee has proved that he is indeed just a substitute. Mertens is sometimes ineffective and has no stable performance. The only stable one is De Bruyne, but the problem lies in the little De Bruyne.

The burden on my body is too heavy, I have to organize, participate in defense and score goals.

Damn, he's not a god either.

Boateng's absence has a really big impact.

At this point, Wen Sheng had no other choice but to choose a new candidate to replace Boateng.

Who to choose?!

He doesn't have much room. Kanter can play. Last season, Kanter often played in the forward midfield position, but Wen Sheng needs his defense more in this game. He needs Kanter to keep an eye on Tevye.

S.

Matic can't play either. He plays a defensive midfield role and his speed is slow. When he comes in, the day lily may be cold.

The only one left is Stroman.

Stroman will also play as a central midfielder in the Dutch Eredivisie Sparta, but Wen Sheng really doesn’t want Stroman to play this position now. He hopes that Stroman can become more familiar with the defensive midfielder position. The defensive midfielder position,

The playing style of the central midfielder is two completely different concepts in the current tactical system of Crystal Palace.

Although he is reluctant, there is nothing he can do now. Wen Sheng can only think of Stroman to replace Boateng and gain experience on the court.

There is also good news among the bad news.

Delhi is back, and Wen Sheng will definitely be put on the field when he comes back, not because of how strong he is, but because his fighting spirit will play a very good additional role in this kind of dialogue with strong opponents. In the last game against Liverpool, he had

Derry may well have been able to retain that victory.

With a few words of encouragement, the players walked out of the tunnel under the leadership of captain Derry.

The goalkeeper position is still vice-captain Speroni. Generally, there are no injuries in the league, so he will definitely start. His performance this season is actually far less impressive than last season. Wen Sheng recently discussed with Webster, Webster

He couldn't say for sure. He thought it might be a phase, and maybe it would get better after a while.

The central defender partners are Morgan and Benatia. Both of them are central defenders who are keen on attacking. Their tacit understanding is gradually increasing. Wen Sheng intends to establish them as the team's main central defender partner.

The full-backs Klein and Hills are also fixed. The two of them have made obvious progress this season, especially on the defensive end. With more practice, they can become two reliable full-back candidates. Being able to play up and down is all about adapting.

4 midfield diamond positions are no problem.

The midfielder consists of Derry, Kanter, and Stroman. Kanter is an iron man. He has not missed every game this season. Derry missed several games due to injury, and Stroman did not get many opportunities. He is better than Marty.

Qi has fewer opportunities, and Matic has already accumulated a lot of playing time.

Vardy, who had been absent for a long time on the front line, finally returned to the starting lineup. On the right side is still De Bruyne, and on the other side it is Zaha.

Mertens was exhausted due to the national team, so Wen Sheng decided to make him a substitute and let Zaha start the starting lineup. Zaha is a stupid kid, but his physical fitness is better than Mertens's and he is very fast.

The players from both sides, led by their respective captains, came to the stadium, and the famous Crystal Palace Girls Secret Service finished their performance and took a break.

Manchester City's starting 4-4-2 formation consists of Boateng, Kompany, Lescott, and Bridge in the defense, Adam Johnson, De Jong, Barry, and Milner in the midfield, and Carlos Tevez and Ade in the forward line.

Bayeux.

Manchester City has a lot of money. This is not their strongest lineup. Compared with Crystal Palace, they are more affected by the national team match day. Injury problems and fatigue problems are more prominent. In addition, the two teams are actually in this week.

There are European leagues to play, and Manchester City has spent so much money. Mancini has a heavy burden. No matter what competition, he is aiming for the championship, so he has to be more calculating than Wen Sheng in personnel rotation.

Unlike Wen Sheng, who can be more casual.

Manchester City is using a 4-4-2 formation this season. Mancini actually likes to play with two forwards. He also has two forwards in Inter Milan.

Crystal Palace's 433 can sometimes be seen as 451, and sometimes it can be seen as 4231. With Manchester City's double forward setup, Tevez will definitely drop back to receive the ball at any time, but Crystal Palace's formation is very restrained.

However, Manchester City definitely likes to play wide. Wen Sheng knows that they just like to cross. With Adebayo as high as Dzeko, and with Tevez's presence, their offense on the ground can be much smoother.

As far as Manchester City's starting lineup is concerned, Wen Sheng does not think that the opponent's paper strength is better than his own. As long as Tevez is killed, they will definitely die!

Mancini's coaching ability cannot be said to be bad, but he often relies on the performance of his stars. Wen Sheng doesn't think his tactics are very flexible.

Wen Sheng will not be too conservative when facing Manchester City. After seeing his opponent starting, he strengthened his belief. They are all a bunch of crooked melons. They look down on me so much. Even Yaya Toure and Bashen

Not even there?!

There is nothing wrong with Wen Sheng's tactical arrangement.

After the game started, Crystal Palace tentatively recovered, and Manchester City's basic set was like that. Tevez retreated to get the ball, whether it was a breakthrough or a split, Kante was always with him.

Mancini was sitting on the coach's bench indifferently. Wen Sheng couldn't help but feel that this man was a little arrogant, "Robert, don't you know that I am a wealthy killer, specializing in killing upstarts like you!"

Ten minutes passed, and neither side had a single shot. Crystal Palace deliberately closed in, but Manchester City couldn't attack. Johnson and Milner were not strong in breakthroughs and could only pass.

Benatia is very good, and Adebayor suffers a bit in front of him.

In the 11th minute, Milner made a pass and Adebayor fouled Morgan when he was competing with Morgan in the Crystal Palace penalty area. Morgan failed to maintain his balance and fell to the ground and was injured.

"Damn it, you got hurt like this?!" Wen Sheng complained helplessly to Lawrence.

Of course, injuries are just like this. Players' injuries may not necessarily be caused by violent collisions. Sometimes, a slight movement may cause serious injuries.

Morgan sat on the court and signaled that he couldn't hold on, and Wen Sheng had to ask Lawrence and others to call Van Dijk to come on.

What a fucking unlucky guy!
