The world of football is full of metaphysics.

On the rest day after the third round, Swansea's vice-captain and main right back Alan Tate went to play at a golf club near Swansea. He encountered an accident while riding in a golf cart. It is said that the car completely lost control at the time.

, carrying Tate, he rushed towards the bushes on the roadside. In the end, Tate's leg was stuck between the car and a tree. The tibia of his left leg was fractured and he was injured for six months.

The timing of this injury is a bit mysterious, and then Swansea lacks its main right back, and its defense has become mysterious. They have not conceded a single goal in four home games, but the problem is that they have conceded 12 consecutive goals in four away games.

goals.

Today's game was no exception. Just 12 minutes into the first half, Swansea gave Crystal Palace an own goal and had to cope with the rest of the game with a score of 0:1.

Rogers' team seemed unhurried and had the upper hand in ball possession, but Wen Sheng's arrangement was undoubtedly correct. The counterattack was vigorous. In the 41st minute, Klose scored with the help of Mkhitaryan's counterattack.

A goal.

In the second half, Rogers remained stubborn and Crystal Palace seized two more opportunities, with Mertens and De Bruyne scoring two more.

Under the guidance of metaphysics, Crystal Palace defeated Swansea led by Rodgers with a score of 4:0.

Wen Sheng's team taught Rogers a profound lesson as a second-year player. Playing in the Premier League is not an easy task.

Wen Sheng thinks that Rogers is stubborn. You are just a lousy defensive line, and you still play a controlled offense based on the formation?! I don't know how to write the word "dead".

Crystal Palace won this game relatively easily. In terms of statistics, except for the slightly worse ball possession rate, everything else had an overall advantage.

Rogers lost and had nothing to say.

"Brandon, it's very important to maintain the team's offensive and defensive balance!" Wen Sheng and Rogers got together at the bar after the game. He bluntly pointed out that Rogers was too promiscuous in the away game.

Rogers introduced his team's tactical ideas to Wen Sheng. His ideas were fine, but Wen Sheng pointed out that Swansea's problem still lies in defense.

Swansea has played against Stoke City, West Bromwich Albion, Sunderland, and Wigan at home. Except for Stoke City, these four teams are currently hovering near the relegation zone.

The first goal of the new season is to avoid relegation. The offense is weak, and Stoke City is a team whose offensive methods are relatively monotonous.

Swansea has actually not received many tests at home. However, among their away opponents, they have already encountered Arsenal, Manchester City, and Chelsea. Strong teams played offense against them, and Swansea's secrets were immediately exposed.

This match against Crystal Palace was also like this. Wen Sheng put two fast and skilled wingers in the team, which often overwhelmed Swansea's wings. However, their players were a little slow to return to defense, and the pressure often directly hit the center.

As for a defender, who can bear this?

As for their offense, let's not mention it. Graham, who is worth 3.5 million pounds, has a body, but he is really not good enough in front of Crystal Palace's central defender.

When Crystal Palace began to take control, Swansea actually had no advantage in controlling the ball at all.

"You have to strengthen your waist and control the ball! Otherwise, you will have no control over the ball. Once you are counterattacked by other teams, it will be a disaster, especially when facing a team with better skills!"

Wen Sheng insisted that Rogers' full-backs should not press too much. He believed that Rogers' passing control should be based on defense. Barcelona's control should be based on offense, so Swansea's control should be based on defense. You have a small door and a small door.

Doubi plays offense?!

If it were Wen Sheng, he would definitely not be able to do it?!

Rogers did not fully agree with Wen Sheng's considerations. He is a team that favors offense. The two people have completely different starting points. However, Rogers still expressed his gratitude to Wen Sheng. At the same time, he also felt that he should seriously think about the Premier League competition.

Cruel, even if you have an idea that you want to realize, you must first keep your position under your butt!

If you can’t even keep your butt position, what’s the point of talking about ideas?!

Wen Sheng’s experience in this regard should be listened to.

I was a little proud to see off Rogers Wensheng. The future manager of Liverpool must still be quite talented. If it hadn't been for Gerrard's slippage that year, he might have led Liverpool to the championship. Later he went to Scotland.

The Super League has led the Celtics to win many championships, and their business capabilities are still strong.

But now, hey, I can be your teacher.

There is a League Cup match in midweek, and Crystal Palace's opponent is Manchester City.

There have been 9 rounds of the Premier League, and Crystal Palace has played 8 rounds. Crystal Palace has won eight games in the eight rounds, creating club history. At the same time, they are also ranked second in the standings with 24 points. Who is ranked first?

?!

It was Manchester City. Manchester City played 9 rounds and got 8 wins and 1 draw, accumulating 25 points.

Crystal Palace drew Manchester City in the League Cup, and on the weekend, unfortunately, these two teams have to play again at the Etihad Stadium.

This League Cup match is also considered to be a warm-up for the weekend league matches between the two teams.

What the English media is best at doing is building momentum. The League Cup is not worth spending too much energy on for Wen Sheng, but because of external public opinion, the Crystal Palace fans are also clamoring.

.......

"Good evening! Paul!" Joey smiled and gave the big fat Paul a bear hug.

Joey's work this season is relatively easy. Last season, the data analysis team had just started, and there were many things to worry about. After a season of running in, the team's work is on the right track. Joey

Naturally, there is also more free time.

He also seriously fell in love with his girlfriend Peggy. In his spare time, he would always take Peggy and a few friends to the bar to hang out.

No, after training on Tuesday, Joey and Paige came to Paul's bar again.

It's no different from usual. Paul's bar is still the site of Croydon fans and Crystal Palace fans, and they have many acquaintances.

"Hello! Joe! Hello Peggy!" Fatty Paul greeted them warmly and poured them wine.

"Is Danny okay?!" Paul asked.

"Ha, do you think he is good? He just defeated Swansea last weekend!" Joey laughed.

"He hasn't been here for a long time!" Paul's words were full of resentment.

"Haha, he doesn't have time to come now! Shh, Cheryl is pregnant!" Joey laughed and said close to Paul.

Before the two of them could chat, more and more acquaintances saw Joey and came over to say hello. They were very concerned about the current situation of the Crystal Palace.

"Hey, Joe! We're going to beat Manchester City, right?!" A fan named Richard patted Joey on the shoulder and asked.

Before Joey had time to answer, another fan, Charles, laughed and said: "Does this need to be said?! We can even deal with Barcelona, ​​why can't we deal with them?!"

"They spent a lot of money and bought a lot of good players, and their bench is deeper than ours!" a fan interjected.

"What's the use of buying more?! Money can't buy a championship! They are just a nouveau riche. Look how many years have passed and they still don't have a championship!" Charles said with disdain.

Joey secretly laughed. When he was communicating with his cousin Wen Sheng, Wen Sheng often said that these days, if you don't have money, you are a loser and you can't get anything. At this time, listening to Charles's words, he felt that fans are fans, which is a bit naive.

Manchester City's crazy investment didn't actually start with Oil Dad. Thaksin invested a lot after taking over Manchester City. Unfortunately, after all these years, Manchester City really got nothing.

Charles' words attracted the approval of the surrounding fans. Some people said proudly: "We didn't spend much money! Look at us, we won the FA Cup, we won the Europa League! This season, we also want to win the league championship.

!”

"This time they come to our territory, it's just time for them to see the majesty of a champion!"

Joey had no chance to answer Richard's question, but the fans enthusiastically belittled Manchester City and praised their own team. It felt like Crystal Palace might have a double defeat against Manchester City in the League Cup and the league.

Manchester City is also fighting on multiple fronts in the new season, and they are making great progress in the league. However, in the European competition, Manchester City always seems to be out of breath and does not play well.
