152 Europa League debut

Because there is a game against Bucharest on Friday, the team will train as usual the next day, and the information from the players is pleasant, this group of players is too young, it is difficult to continue to be stable mentally, sometimes thinking more in their hearts will be shown in the state of the field, beating is a must, and now it is a little calm, and it has not been particularly affected by the loss.

At the end of the training, Wen Sheng called everyone again, "To be precise, since September, more than 20 of us have been fixed, each of you has been carefully selected by me to stay, and I have personally called each of you to invite you to stay!" ”

"The reason why I am telling you this today is because I want to tell you that I trust you very much, and it is because of this trust that I invite you to join or stay! From the time the transfer window closes in September, our team is formed! ”

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I didn't think about it until today, so let's tell you what I really mean!"

"I'm the head coach and I have my own goals and goals! In a sense, I'm not serving the boss, I'm not serving the fans! I just wanted to show my self-worth, I always had a dream in my heart and I thought I could be a great manager, what is a great manager?! Being able to lead the team to climb one mountain after another, climbing one honor after another, this is my interpretation of excellence! ”

'I'm the head of the team and I have an obligation and responsibility to lead us as a team to realise the value of our team, as I did last season, we can win the FA Cup, we can move up in that tough situation! It's just that this season our goal has become relegation! ”

"Guys, it's the Premier League here, and relegation isn't going to be easy!" Wen Sheng said, in fact, everyone has a certain feeling, and everyone has a deep understanding of the intensity of the Premier League.

"As a manager, I also want you to benefit from the growth of the team, we have a lot of young people in the team, I take a lot of risks, you are inexperienced, you lack a stable mentality, you are prone to gains and losses, just like those critics commented on me, I admit that sometimes I am not as perfect as I would be in my ideal state, but I am always trying to change myself and I am also learning!"

"And what about you?! If you don't want to make a career in football, why waste your energy? If you are not satisfied with your current self and want to really do something, then follow me, now is the right time, for yourself and our team, you must work hard! ”

I haven't brainwashed the guys for a while, Wen Sheng has held back a lot of things in his heart, he has always thought that the most important thing to be a head coach is actually personnel management, and the most important thing in personnel management is communication, how to manage without communication.

Some head coaches are cold, focusing only on tactical indoctrination and ignoring ideological indoctrination, which often causes internal discontent. Some head coaches are like a spring breeze, and their tactics are not necessarily very good, but they do a good job in ideological indoctrination, and the team's results are better.

Wensheng is tactics and ideas to inculcate, a team to unify the idea is not easy, the ideal football team should be a team with a common goal, the goal of honor as a common goal, everyone in the team should not simply play football as a job.

He has always done a good job in this area, whether it is using tricks or brainwashing, with his tone and body movements, it is still easy for everyone to be infected.

Although the players are getting more and more distant from him now, everyone respects him and loves him.

At the time of the interview, there were players who said that Wen Sheng was good.

This kind of managerial dominance is actually rare to see in many teams in the Premier League.

Nowadays, many managers and players are more like a cooperative relationship, especially in big teams, and the relationship between everyone is no longer the traditional relationship between superiors and subordinates in the past.

……

A few days later, Crystal Palace hosted their first Europa League group stage opponents, Steaua Bucharest.

It was also Palace's first appearance in a European competition in its 100-year history, although it was midweek and Selhurst Stadium had long since sold out.

Bucharest Star is a Romanian giant, Wen Sheng really hadn't heard of it before, but now he knows that his ancestors were also rich.

In the 80s, Bucharest Star was a powerhouse in Europe, and in 86 they won the Big Ears Cup, and it is said that they had the support of the rulers at the time, and many good players in Romania gathered together, and the strength was significantly higher than that of other league teams.

More than 20 years have passed, Romania's politics have changed dramatically, and the football world there has naturally changed, but the Bucharest stars are still Romania's giants, they were still playing in the Champions League last year, but this year they did not play well in the Champions League qualification round and were brushed off.

The video materials of this team are not easy to find, and Joey has to try to collect information about the situation of this team last season, the recruitment of the new season, and the main tactical play, Wen Sheng analyzed from these materials, despite these materials, this team is still unfamiliar, and the strange opponent is very annoying.

So before the game, Wensheng was very low-key.

"They are regulars in European competitions and have a lot more experience than us! We know they're not easy to play against, but it's our home stadium and I hope we can win and get the three points! ”

'If we want to qualify, we have to make the most of our home game!'

Home advantage in Europe is more obvious than in the league, and the unknown environment makes it somewhat difficult for the away players to adapt, so Wen Sheng said that it is absolutely correct to take advantage of the home advantage.

Wen Sheng told everyone in this game that the main tone is to play speed, to attack, Bucharest Star is very unfamiliar, it doesn't matter, Wen Sheng has only one concept in this game, "I can score one more than you!" ”

The goalkeeper position is still Speroni, and the two wings of the backline have not changed, Klein and Sears, but the centre-back partnership has changed, and Benatia has replaced Oneneu and Morgan in the centre-back.

Midfielder Derry is still there, but Boateng has been replaced, replaced by Stroman.

Boateng was not in good shape, and after Wen Sheng explained, he also accepted it, not only did he participate in the World Cup, but he also did not fall in the new season's games, which was really tiring enough.

Murtens was also replaced at winger, replaced by Danes, and Wen Sheng also explained to Mertens that he was too slow to adapt to the league.

He scored the lowest score against Newcastle in the last game, and he can't say that Wen Sheng doesn't change him, how can he explain to the other substitutes who have worked hard to train?!

Mertens knows that as a professional player, this pressure still has to be faced bravely, Wen Sheng can explain to him and comfort him, and changing other coaches may not give him a reason.

De Bruyne and Vardy were not replaced, if De Bruyne was replaced, who would the attacking organization rely on?! And Vardy, this Vardy who doesn't score still has a lot of tactical value, he doesn't score, he is not in good shape, he should have been replaced, but who to replace?! Allan. Lee and Vardy are clearly not of the same type.

Amid the cheers of the home fans, the first time for Crystal Palace finally kicked off.

It was a win without the slightest concern about defence, and the burden was surprisingly large, with Morgan and Benatia both being the kind of centre-backs who were up and down.

In this game, Wensheng's requirements for them are extremely simple, the defensive attitude should be positive, not shrinking in the penalty area, and the aggression should be higher.
