265. Chelsea 4
Chelsea's group of substitutes also includes an old Crystal Palace man, Kevin Murphy. Boateng.
When he transferred to Chelsea, Wen Sheng tried his best to persuade him, hoping that he would not go to Chelsea, of course, not to Milan, and advised him to stay in Crystal Palace, but unfortunately he did not listen, Chelsea gave a high salary, and he came to Chelsea without hesitation.
But his subsequent development did not go well.
He is not the player Ancelotti wants, Ancelotti is very average to him, and with the injury problem, he has not played much under Ancelotti at all, and his contribution to the team is also very small.
finally waited for Ancelotti to get out of the way, and the new coach Boas came to power, originally thought this was a good opportunity, but who knew that Boas still didn't want to see him.
The reason is very simple, he is not strong in technical ability, how can Boas like him?!
He's been worse than Carlo Ancelotti this season, with a week-long injury in summer training and Villas-Boas pretty much left in the cold, and if it weren't for the fact that there weren't many players available, he might not even have any hope of being a substitute.
Sitting on the bench in the dressing room, Boatendo wanted Boyas to call him by name and tell him he had a chance to play in the second half, but he didn't hear Boas call him by name.
Villas-Boas finished his tactics, and Boateng and his substitutes went to the pitch to warm up under the guidance of the assistant coach.
Walking out of the locker room door, he saw Wen Sheng and Hawking smoking in the hallway.
Well, Wen Sheng also smokes now, and he doesn't know when he started, occasionally when he is nervous, he will pull out a cigarette and smoke it in the middle of the game, of course, he doesn't buy it himself, but asks for it from Hawking.
Boateng's heart moved, speaking of which is still the boss who will use himself, thinking that half a season at Crystal Palace is his best time.
"Hey, Boss! You smoke too?! Boateng took the initiative to run over and greet Wen Sheng and Hawking.
"Oh! It's you, Prince! Wen Sheng smiled and opened his arms to give Boateng a hug, and Hawking also smiled and greeted Boateng.
"Isn't this a duel with you! I'm so nervous, pull out a cigarette and smoke it, and let my little heart calm down! Wen Sheng raised the half of the cigarette in his hand and joked.
Boateng smelled the smell of cigarettes and was excited, this kid actually did something that made Wen Sheng dumbfounded, he actually asked Hawking for cigarettes.
Boateng's smoking is not news at all, this kid was smoked by Wen Sheng in private in Crystal Palace before, he thought Wen Sheng didn't know, how could Wen Sheng not know, and later specifically persuaded him, but he did his own thing, but it was really easy to use on the court, and Wen Sheng didn't care about him, after all, he had to rely on him at that time.
"Fuck off! Hurry up and warm up! Wen Sheng looked at each other angrily and kicked him directly, "Damn, I'll give you a cigarette, Boas won't hate me to death later?!" ”
Fighting is to scold dead love, looking at the occasional willingness to fight with himself in the past, Boateng's mind is more alive, he smiled and dodged away, "Boss, I haven't contacted you for a long time!" When are we going to have a good talk?! ”
"Absolutely! But the most important thing now is to get out and warm up! Later, I still want to see how many layers of your skills are left, how can you take revenge on your old club! Wen Sheng pushed Boateng.
Boateng grinned and walked away.
"This kid! Dead nature does not change! Hawking shook his head with a wry smile.
"I don't care if he changes it?! Out of the doors of the Crystal Palace, I don't care about his future anymore! Wen Sheng said ruthlessly.
"Haha, don't you know what he's looking for you?!" Hawking laughed.
"Do you think I'm an idiot?!" Wen Sheng glanced at Hawking.
Boateng wants to return to the Crystal Palace, but how could Wen Sheng accept him?!
Boateng has never been a peaceful master, among the three brothers of the Boateng family, this kid may be the most talented, he made his mark early in Hertha Berlin, and then transferred to Tottenham Hotspur for 7.5 million euros in 07, and then this kid began to float in all kinds of ways, with a lot of lace, smoking and drinking.
The result can also be imagined, two years ago, Tottenham directly swept him out of the house, Boateng began to be honest, performed well in Portsmouth, and later Wensheng bought him, he is also quite regular, after all, the setbacks he suffered also know that he is not a superstar anymore, and he should not put on a score.
Then to Chelsea, his mentality is completely different from when he was in Portsmouth and Crystal Palace, and he began to return to his original nature, all kinds of play, and he has a lot of lace in the Chelsea team, so it is no wonder that Ancelotti and Villas-Boas do not want to see him.
After leaving the Crystal Palace, this guy rarely called Wen Sheng, and now he came over to offer his courtesy, who could not know his abacus?!
"Actually, our midfield itself is strengthened, and it would be good if we could loan him for half a season, at least Ding Ding has a substitute, isn't it?!" Hawking thought about it but persuaded Wen Sheng.
Hawking doesn't think it's difficult to manage Boateng, this kid eats soft rather than hard, and he still listens to it.
Hawking's suggestion is not unreasonable, Crystal Palace's current problem is to rely on De Bruyne, De Bruyne is not on it, the quality of the game has dropped significantly, but you can't guarantee that De Bruyne will be on every game, and it is a very practical problem to find a substitute for De Bruyne.
But Wen Sheng has already planned, and there is still Mkhitaryan in the middle of the position to play, in fact, the most important thing for the team is to find a qualified winger, and Wen Sheng has set his sights on Eden Hazard in Lille.
Bringing in Eden Hazard has the advantage of Belgian players being able to help and the environment may be easier for Hazard to adapt to.
However, Crystal Palace naturally has disadvantages, such as transfer fees and salaries, they are difficult to compete with other giants, you must know that Hazard has attracted the interest of most of the European giants.
"Say it again! Let's add up again next month! Wen Sheng didn't say anything, and said perfunctorily.
The fifteen-minute break at halftime ended.
The two sides returned to the court, and both teams invariably made possession of the ball their first priority, and you punched me and I punched, fighting each other in positional battles.
Vaguely, Crystal Palace still has the advantage, they have a stronger ability to control the ball, and they don't easily lose their ball, what about Chelsea, Mata is a father and a mother, and after returning to the midfield to respond, he organized a tandem, and had to run to the front to break through to pass.
He has a different style from De Bruyne, Mata's long pass is also good, but the concealment is not strong, when De Bruyne is a side forward, he often plays that kind of oblique long pass, which has strong penetration, Mata does not have this hand, he can only pass a key pass near the penalty area, sometimes with a straight stopper, which is not too difficult for Crystal Palace to defend.
Ten minutes on, Chelsea failed to have a single shot on goal, while Palace did so on three occasions in a positional battle.
In the 47th minute, De Bruyne broke through the edge of the Romeu box and fired a shot that was too long for Cech to denied.
In the 53rd minute, this time Crystal Palace almost scored, after De Bruyne and Mkhitaryan linked, Mkhitaryan picked up a cross into the penalty area, Vardy successfully countered offside, and the header was slightly over the crossbar.
David. Luis and Terry's marking of Vardy is not imtight, but Mkhitaryan touched the ball and passed, which caught them off guard, and the tacit understanding with Vardy is very high, but unfortunately this ball is Mkhitaryan's strength is slightly bigger, the ball is a little high, Vardy's header is a little reluctant, if Mkhitaryan is more accurate, Vardy should not waste the opportunity.
In the 55th minute, Mertens received a ball from De Bruyne and shot directly at the goal without stopping. Luiz's leg, a refraction, deflected wide of the goal.
Villas-Boas was a little depressed, he wanted to use newcomers, but the flaws in the lineup were too big, Sturridge was not so experienced in the game, he only knew how to hit and rush, his running position was not sensitive, and Drogba was old.
Midfielders Ramirez and Meireles have weak organizational skills, often using the way to break through the middle to help the team attack, as a result, Crystal Palace's midfield interception ability is relatively strong, and the position is good, they are almost difficult to play too much offensive role, and they are active enough at the defensive end, and they also have the ability to intercept, but they do not tacit understanding from time to time, resulting in dislocation.
