43. Keep going
"Will, this position will be yours from now on!" Dery looked around and pointed to the position closest to the door of the locker room and said to Zaha.
"Oh!" Zaha replied absentmindedly.
"I'm leaving first! You can find Bob Clark for training clothes and the like, and he will take care of it for you! When Julian comes, he will take you to get to know everyone! From today on, you will follow us.
Training, understand?!" Deli patted Zaha on the shoulder.
"Uh, captain! Did Wen...oh, the boss not see me today?!" Zaha finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked.
"Daniel?! He just asked me to pick you up at the door and didn't say anything else! I'm not sure!" After Deli finished speaking, he didn't care whether Zaha asked afterward, and walked away gracefully.
Zaha felt a little angry, what does this mean?! Shouldn't Wen say something to me?!
Deli returned to the office and told Wen Sheng the situation. Wen Sheng said with a smile: "The Chinese have a saying, a jade cannot be used until it is polished! This kid actually has potential, but his mentality is wrong. Now let's kill his spirit."
That’s fine!”
"What if it really doesn't work?!"
"It doesn't work?! If you can't train him, then you can just go back to wherever he came from! What kind of problem is this?!"
Derry blushed after hearing this. It is common for the adult team to recruit players from the youth team to play in the first team. After being recruited, it does not mean that they will definitely gain a foothold in the first team. It is normal to go back.
Going back does not mean that these players will be affected. Being called up already fully demonstrates their potential.
Delhi's question is indeed redundant.
In this way, Zaha's first-team career officially began.
At the end of the morning training, everyone on the team looked at Zaha with sympathy.
Because this morning's training was very difficult for Zaha. First of all, as the adult team, the training intensity is definitely much greater than that of the youth team. It is difficult for Zaha to adapt. He completed some tasks poorly. Secondly, the most important thing is Wen Sheng.
He scolded Zaha miserably.
"Asshole! What are you doing?!"
"Damn, what on earth are you doing?!"
"Idiot, are you okay?! If you can't, get out of here!"
…
Zaha's head was about to be scolded. Wen Sheng was usually a very serious person on the training ground, but he would never scold the players (haha, it was temporary after all, and how did Wen Sheng arrive when he first arrived?
Sheng is also self-aware), he can be irritable, but overall he is a moderate coach.
Who would have thought that Zaha opened everyone's eyes, it turns out that Wen Sheng also knows how to curse, and he does it right.
As the one who was scolded, one can imagine Zaha's mood. Several times he wanted to rush up and kick the damn Wen Sheng, but Zaha was still sensible.
"Damn it, one day I'm going to beat your balls!" Zaha vowed viciously in her heart, "I will always prove you wrong!"
In the days when Zaha was suffering, on January 9, Crystal Palace went to the away game against Sheffield Wednesday in an FA Cup match.
William Carlton doesn't care about the team's performance in the FA Cup. He only cares about whether the team can avoid relegation. Therefore, whether to give up or work hard in the FA Cup depends on the Wensheng team.
After everyone put it all together, we feel that the current FA Cup schedule is not particularly difficult for Crystal Palace, and it should still work hard.
Therefore, in this game against Sheffield Wednesday, Crystal Palace also used all its main players.
Carlton had promised Wen Sheng that he could use the players on the roster, and Wen Sheng was not polite. He took Davis out of the game and replaced him with Irish central defender Patrick McCarthy.
The combination of Lawrence and Davis is a central defender combination that Wen Sheng is very dissatisfied with.
McCarthy came to the team in 2008. He should have been introduced by Warnock as the main central defender. However, this guy was injured after he came to the team. He only played more than 20 games intermittently. This season, his health
He is in good condition, but it is difficult to gain much trust from Warnock and he does not have many chances to play.
After Wen Sheng took over, he had no choice but to use him as a substitute and never as a starter.
McCarthy himself was willing to leave, and he was on the list again. Wen Sheng could not overuse him, but the situation was different now. Wen Sheng had a little room to make the decision, so Wen Sheng immediately talked to McCarthy and planned to use him.
In fact, in terms of player strength, McCarthy is much better than Davis. One is age. Davis is over 30 years old, while McCarthy is only 26 years old. In his prime, his technical ability is better than that of Davis.
Davis is strong.
If McCarthy does not have much trust from Warnock, then Davis is considered to be in the shadows.
If it weren't for the limited personnel, Wen Sheng wouldn't have chosen him even if he killed him. As a result, after these few games, Davis is really bad. His partner Lawrence is also a member of the coaching staff. When it comes to Davis, he is really a nose.
I shed a few tears, feeling that my teammates were too stupid.
The strange thing is that Davis is not on the list, but Wen Sheng doesn't find it strange at all, because Davis's salary is very low.
The new central defender combination looks good on the training field. Lawrence lacks speed, but Crystal Palace's defense is relatively deep and their main focus is defensive counterattack, so it is not a big problem.
Sheffield Wednesday are also a team in the English Championship and are relatively weak. They have played more than 20 rounds in the league now, almost halfway through, and they only have 19 points, averaging less than one point per round.
Although they were at home, facing Crystal Palace, which had been in increasingly better form recently, they still lost, only losing by one goal.
The goal for Crystal Palace was a penalty kick, scored by Derry.
Counting the time he played under Warnock and Wen Sheng, Vardy has not scored a goal in 8 games. This penalty was also created by him. He really wanted to take the penalty. From the bottom of his heart, Delhi also hopes that Vardy can
Breaking the goal drought, but this penalty kick is too important.
In the end, Delhi did not give up the penalty kick and chose to take the penalty himself. After all, Vardy's trust in him was not too high. If he had a choice, he would still choose to trust himself.
The penalty kicker was selected in advance. Wen Sheng was very satisfied with Derry taking the penalty, but he did not want Vardy to take the penalty as he was worried that Vardy would miss the penalty.
Crystal Palace's defense was very solid against Sheffield Wednesday. Even if the opponent was a weak team, Wen Sheng still continued the routine of defensive counterattacks and did not control the ball. His playing style seemed too monotonous. He opened and closed, and Sheffield Wednesday's attack power was
Being weak, Crystal Palace will naturally have less trouble defending.
Counting this game, Crystal Palace's ball possession rate in the four games was only 37%, 40%, 38%, and 42% respectively, and never exceeded 50%.
Sheffield Wednesday had a ball possession rate of 58% in this game. They looked like a controlling team, but in fact they had nothing to do. Crystal Palace gave up the ball, and they were forced to lose control of the ball at home by their opponents.
But it didn't help their offense much.
Calculated in the main statistics, such as shots, shots on target, including threatening passes, Crystal Palace has an advantage. Since Wen Sheng came on the field, they finally had more than ten shots in the game, with 13 shots in the game and 5 shots on goal.
In addition to the ball possession rate, Crystal Palace's statistics in this game are quite gratifying. Coupled with the team's successive victories, experts now began to take seriously the positive aspects that Wen Sheng brought to the team.
"Another 1:0! Why do you say again?! Because since Wen Sheng took office, Crystal Palace has not scored more than two goals in any game! Even though it is 1:0, in three league games and one
In the FA Cup, Wen Sheng's team has won three and drawn one."
"When he took office, almost everyone thought that he would be the worst choice for William Carlton when he was young, but now look at them, they have temporarily escaped the danger of being relegated and have entered the FA Cup.
In the next round, no matter what the critics say, the positive changes Wen Sheng brings to the team are obvious!"
BBC commentary articles began to praise Wen Sheng.
"Wen re-activated Patrick McCarthy as the starter. This change brought positive changes to the team. The opponents did not find any good opportunities at all. Although Wen has been stumbling since he took office, we must also recognize some facts. They are
