Delhi called everyone into a circle, and Boateng reminded: "The leader just said that we want to fight for the top four!"

"Top four?! Oh! ”

Everyone seems to have remembered at this time that Wen Sheng did say that he was fighting for the top four just now!

The goal has quietly changed, and many players are saying that we really want to change the goal of the season?!

"The top four are the top four, what's wrong with this goal?! Are you scared?! Derry asked.

"Who do you say is afraid?! Sean! Speroni scolded, "Damn, what's wrong with our strength in the entire top four?!" Very normal! The last game against Bucharest Stars was just an accident! ”

"That's right! It was just an accident! The players nodded their heads, especially the comrades who did not play well in the last game.

"Alright, it's almost time! It's time to play! Delhi stood in the circle and shouted, "Remember our slogan!" ”

"Teamwork, focus!" Everyone roared in unison.

"Also, brethren! The group of dogs on the other side is not easy to mess with, pay attention to protect yourself! Don't be afraid, the front is right, don't be afraid of them! "Derry is like an old nanny who doesn't care about everything, babbling over and out.

"Who's scared?!"

"Who's afraid of who is a coward!"

Teammates were dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, I said it wrong! Anyway, there is a strategy to scare them...."

"Cut!" Everyone gave up on Delhi completely and walked out of the locker room.

Wensheng still sent a 433 formation in this game.

Goalkeeper: Speroni

Defenders: Klein, Benatia, Van Dijk, Shills

Midfielders: Derry, N'Golo Kante, Boateng

Forwards: Mertens, Allen. Lee, De Bruyne

Injuries at the back have eased slightly, with Morgan returning, Oneneu also returning, midfielder Nemanja Matic has not recovered from injury, striker Jamie Vardy is also injured, Danes has a slight ailment, and Scannell has a bit of a muscle problem in training and is unavailable.

The choice of central defenders in the defensive line Wen Sheng chose Benatia and Van Dijk's choice is targeted, Pulis is used to using the 442 position, the traditional English style of play, the center position must be a striker who can resist headers, and side crosses are indispensable, since this is the case, Wen Sheng simply put two tall central defenders on the defensive line with the opponent.

The midfield is the original triangle, against the Bucharest Star, these three have been given the opportunity to rest, counting that they have more than ten days of rest, full of energy, this hand-to-hand combat is very important for them.

As for Allen up front. Lee must have played back-to-back games, with Mertens and Kevin De Bruyne both resting in the Europa League.

Overall, Crystal Palace are at full play and have a physical advantage, after all, they can play Stoke City in the 16th round, and they drew away to Martinez's Wigan.

The Crystal Palace players stood in the tunnel as it was the turn of both players to come on, with their names on the live radio at the Britannia Stadium and the home fans booing.

Stoke fans don't like Prince either, but with the biggest enemy in the limelight now on their home turf, fans will still choose to be on Prince's side, more precisely, on the team's side.

Wen Sheng went out a little later than them, and the landlord Prince was still waiting for him, Wen Sheng thought that if everyone made such a fuss, Prince should not welcome him.

"Wen, good luck!"

"Good luck too, Mr. Prince!"

Gone!

Wen Sheng only understood at this time that it was not so much Prince's generosity as he was to pay attention to a demeanor, it didn't matter how he fired in front of the media, but the traditional demeanor of the court still had to be wanted.

Wen Sheng didn't smile when he shook hands with Prince, and Prince didn't smile either, but when he turned back to face the cameraman's camera on the sidelines, Wen Sheng smiled.

The reporters also saw it really, okay, shaking hands is shaking hands, and it is estimated that it should be impossible for the two to have a drink after the game.

Stoke City's 442 formation.

Goalkeeper: Begovic

Defenders: Wilkinson, Hooth, Shawcross, Danny Collins

Midfielders: Pennant, Dilap, Whitehead, Etherington

Forward: Ken Winny. Jones, Fleur

Stoke City is the team with the highest average height in the Premier League, as far as this starting lineup is concerned, except for Pennant and Etherington, who are not more than 1.8 meters tall, everyone else is above 1.8 meters tall, and the average height is about 1.85 meters, and the average height of Crystal Palace is much shorter than them, Klein, Hills, Kante, Mertens are all lagging behind, and De Bruyne and Derry themselves are about 1.8 meters.

On the Crystal Palace side, only Benatia, Van Dijk and Allen are above 1.83 meters. Lee and Kevin Boateng are three players.

Place pays more attention to this when he introduces players, such players are in line with his tactical style, tenacious defense, high and high, and his tactics are also suitable for relegation teams to play, who will play like this in the championship team?!

Playing like this can only lead to a dead end, winning the championship is a fantasy, and the league is not the European Cup!

Greece led by Otto the Great Rehhagel performed miracles, and it may have been an important reference model for Pulis.

The captains of the two sides, Derry and Shawcross, were relatively friendly, and the whole pre-match ceremony was full of laughter.

Wen Sheng felt very incongruous, the 32-year-old Derry stood in front of the 23-year-old Shawcross like a child, the height difference between the two sides was too large, and Shawcross was almost two meters close.

Shawcross is a player from Manchester United's academy, he didn't make a name for himself at Manchester United, he didn't make a single official appearance, and then moved to Stoke City to find his spring, and Pulis liked him as a tall and strong and fierce defender.

Soon the game began, and unlike previous tactics, this game required the team to focus more on controlling the ball rather than rushing to counter-attack the opposition defence.

Place has a team that can move at a reasonable pace in defence, and he has led the team for several years, and the players know his defensive requirements well, and the pace of the defense is very fast, plus they don't press too hard, counter-attacks are not effective, and the risk of injury increases.

They don't care what you fight back or not, once they find out the danger, they absolutely have no hesitation to get off the black feet, the faster the speed, the more their black feet will hurt you, so although Wen Sheng did not explicitly say that we have to protect ourselves, but in terms of tactical arrangement, he tried to make Crystal Palace play a slow pace, through penetration and personal skills to penetrate the opponent's defense.

Pulis pretended to play on his home turf, while Crystal Palace got Wensheng's instructions to step up the passing control at the back.

In the third minute, Stoke City pressed forward and almost caused a mistake for Van Dijk.

Van Dijk couldn't find the ball when the opponent was pressing, and wanted to kick out of the sideline, but hesitated, and was cut off by Fleur from his feet, but fortunately Speroni stepped up at the critical moment and bravely blocked Fleur's single knife.

The Stoke City fans hugged their heads in regret, Fleur knelt down on his knees, and Pulis was disappointed, what a scene it would have been for him if Fleur had scored this goal, but it's a pity!

Stoke City's game was a twin-tower tactic, with Kenwiny Brown. Both Jones and Fleur are around 190, with Jones having a strong physique and Fleur being fast.

Why is Fleur fast, because he is from Jamaica, and he and "Fast Man" Bolt have known each other since middle school, both of them practice sprinting, but this kid likes football and gave up sprinting, otherwise he might also become "Fast Man" Luo!

The coaching staff collects the information and technical characteristics of the opponent's players in each game, Van Dijk knows that the opponent is fast, but after all, he is still underestimated, and Fleur is also a 30-year-old veteran, this time he made a big mistake and almost left his team behind.

"Don't take it personally, be decisive next time you handle the ball! Don't lose your sense of proportion! 'Coming back to the corner, Derry comforts Van Dijk.
