402. Tottenham 1

On the morning of Friday 13, Crystal Palace held a pre-match press conference at the Beckenham training base.

Of course, the first thing that reporters "care" about is the state and morale of the team, and everyone understands that the FA Cup was almost publicly abandoned by Wensheng, but after all, the crystal has also lost two consecutive games recently.

"I'm feeling so good right now! I'm also very happy with the team's preparation! Everyone's in good spirits! Wen Sheng had a smile on his face, and he looked confident.

Today's escort to the press conference is the team's vice-president McCarthy, captain Derry is very unlucky, last weekend against Birmingham in the FA Cup the veteran injured again, this season Derry often spent in the total injury, after this injury, Derry in front of Wensheng very painfully admitted that he seems to be really old, and finally made up his mind to go to China next season, of course he will not leave in the winter window, because this season Crystal Palace has a chance to win the league title, Derry obviously does not want to miss the moment to win the championship.

Derry was injured, so Wensheng asked McCarthy and Speroni to take turns to attend the press conference in place of Derry, and today it was McCarthy.

When reporters threw questions at McCarthy, McCarthy said: "Losing to Chelsea and Birmingham is a big blow to us! We have to respond positively in the next games and prove that we deserve to be at the top of the table! ”

Wen Sheng smiled and nodded in approval.

"Text, there are people who think the schedule is unfair to Manchester City, they are scheduled to play on Sunday, what do you think about that?!" The Daily Mail reporter asked.

Now Crystal Palace and Manchester City are quite a bit of a full-scale war, Manchester United and Tottenham are not far from Crystal Palace, Manchester City is not far away, and they have a chance to compete for the league title, but who makes Crystal Palace and Manchester City the second boss, plus they are inexplicably fighting in the transfer market, resulting in reporters obviously interviewing Crystal Palace to be involved in Manchester City.

If nothing else, Manchester City's pre-match press conference will inevitably involve Crystal Palace.

"What can I think?!" Wen Sheng was helpless, "I'm not a Premier League company, I'm not a league, I'm not an FA!" I can't do anything! ”

The reporters in the audience laughed softly.

'The fixtures were set a few months ago, and no one expected us to have a big competition with Manchester City, and now because we have this fierce competition, and then there are complaints that the schedule made a few months ago is not right! Do you think that is reasonable?! I think it's nonsense anyway! Wen Sheng clasped his hand to his chest.

"Wen, did you just say that there is a fierce rivalry between you and Manchester City, including the Bridge incident?!" The Times reporter asked.

'It seems a bit out of place to talk about players from other teams, but we've made it clear and we're really interested in Bridge, but we'll have all the respect for the club!' Wen Sheng replied.

"It is reported that you met with the manager of Queens Rangers, Mr Warnock, before the FA Cup game against Birmingham, did you talk to him about a deal for Talabut, we all know that Talabut is one of the targets of Manchester City!" The Guardian reporter raised his hand to ask.

"Nope! We talked a lot, but not about Tarabut! Neal and I are well-known and it's normal for us to eat together! Please don't make a fuss! Wen Sheng flatly denied it.

Reporters won't believe this kind of nonsense, but Wen Sheng doesn't care if they believe it or not!

After talking about this, Wen Sheng continued: "Guys, this is the pre-match press conference against Tottenham, why do you always revolve around Manchester City?! If you want to know more about Manchester City, you can attend the Manchester City press conference, I don't know much about them, I can't answer your questions! I'm sorry! ”

At Wensheng's request, the reporters finally turned the conversation to Tottenham.

All journalists were concerned about before the game was injuries and how to deal with Tottenham's key players.

Tottenham's hottest player right now is Gareth Bale, and while his numbers don't look particularly good in the first half, his impact has helped Tottenham a lot, and by January he was in good form, scoring in both the Premier League and FA Cup.

"We don't need to do anything deliberately! I think we can put enough pressure on them! McCarthy was very arrogant, and Wen Sheng secretly laughed at McCarthy in his heart.

Crystal Palace have taken Bale's presence very seriously from top to bottom, and the team has made a series of targeted settings to limit Tottenham's flanks.

McCarthy learned the essence of Wen Sheng's sentence "strategically we must despise the enemy, tactically we must respect the enemy", and he did not show weakness at all.

Of course, Wensheng will not show weakness, "Bale is of course a talented player, but Tottenham still has many good players, Modric, Van der Vaart, Lennon, Adebayo, etc., they are all great! We don't just need to limit Bale, we need to focus on Tottenham as a team! ”

"The specific tactical arrangements will be known when the time comes!"

......

Lao Lei and Wen Sheng are also fellow Englishmen, and the two are both from London, so their relationship is okay.

At the press conference, Lao Lei also said a lot of good things about Wen Sheng, praising Wen Sheng as one of the best managers in England, but the reporters were too ignorant of current affairs, and they actually talked about various disputes between Crystal Palace and Manchester City in this pre-match press conference, so that Lao Lei commented.

Lao Lei couldn't cry or laugh, what does this have to do with me?!

When he met with Wen Sheng on the match day, Lao Lei talked about this interesting incident, and he asked Wen Sheng if he was very interested in Tarabut, hinting that he could also help!

Wen Shengxin said that you can be a fake when you are old! I believe you have ghosts!

Lao Lei is in charge of Tottenham, Tarabut is what he introduced, and he didn't give Tarabut a chance, and he sold it, and you can think with your toes that Tarabut must have a bad sense of Lao Lei.

Wen Sheng concluded that Lao Lei was just pretending to be and had nothing to say to him.

"It's Manchester City who are interested in him! We don't plan to do so! Wen Sheng smiled, "But thank you very much!" Harry! ”

After a few jokes, the two of them returned to their positions and waited for the game to begin.

Tottenham have a formation of 4411 today and you can see him as 433 or 451.

Goalkeeper: Friedel

Defenders: Walker, Dawson, Cabool, HΓ©ctor

Midfielders: Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale

Striker: Van der Vaart

Forward: Bam Adebayo

Parker and Bam Adebayor joined Tottenham in the summer, Parker is over 30 and spent Β£5 million on Tottenham, while Adebayor is on loan from the deep-pocketed Manchester City, and both players have given Tottenham a big boost after integrating into the team in the new season.

So sometimes it's better to buy the expensive than to buy the right one, Lao Lei made some inexplicable transfers in the first two years, but this season under Levy's strong intervention, Tottenham seems to have regained its shrewdness.

Parker made a name for himself a long time ago, he was a player who was once known as the British Empire, played for London giants Chelsea, but unfortunately did not live up to his talent due to injury during his time at Chelsea, and later came to West Ham United, and as he got older, he began to rise the ball, and was the heart of West Ham's midfield.

After arriving at Tottenham this season, he quickly established himself as a regular under Ray and was voted the best player in the team in November.

As for Adebayo, the Tottenham rival veteran seems to have also risen the ball, and his performance is also quite good, with a lot of goals and assists.

Crystal Palace's side is as usual 4231.

Goalkeeper: Speroni

Defenders: Maggio, Benatia, McCarthy, Larsson

Defenders: Stroman, N'Golo Kante

Attacking midfielders: Mertens, De Bruyne, Aubameyang

Forward: Klose

Wensheng's team has suffered a few minor injuries, in addition to Delhi's injury, Mkhitaryan has some minor injuries, and Van Dijk is also injured, but they are not serious.

An injury-free Vardy was dropped on the bench and Wensheng used veteran Klose to play a lone arrow.
