Chapter 449: Mansour's Decision
Sitting in front of the TV, seeing the team equalizing, and listening to JACK's self-talking comments on the TV, Mansour frowned and said to Mubarak on the side, "Mubarak, how did you do what you did last time?" ”
"BOSS, the progress is okay, I have contacted a few coaches who are willing to take over at the end of the season! However, the slightly more famous coaches are not very willing to take over the team in the middle of the game. ”
"Huh!" Laughing inexplicably, Mansour was noncommittal to the news brought by Mubarak, and instead asked, "What do you think of Crystal Palace's game today?" ”
"It's okay, under the premise of the team's two consecutive defeats, facing the strong rival Chelsea, to be able to play like this at the opponent's home stadium, this game should be regarded as the pinnacle of Crystal Palace's season!"
"Peak? No, no, no! After saying three nos in a row to deny Mubarak's slightly sycophant words, Mansour smiled and said, "It seems that I used to underestimate this Friedman!" Unexpectedly, he still has a certain ability to lead the team. You say this is the pinnacle of Crystal Palace? I can tell you with certainty that it was absolutely not, and it was not so much the best game that Palace had played so far, but rather the beginning of Crystal Palace's rise.
As for the change of coach, let's leave it at that, but I also want to see what kind of record Friedman can bring to the record of a season that Friedman leads this team. ”――
Just now, Mansour's understatement changed the fate of his whole person, and Friedman, who had just finished his excitement at this time, did not know anything about these things. In other words, at this time, although he seems calm on the surface, in fact, he has fallen into the vision of a better future.
"Coach!"
"Huh?" The dream was disturbed, and he first replied unhappily, turned his head, and found that the person who called him was his assistant, and Friedman restrained himself a little and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"What, how should the next game be played? Still make them so crazy? ”
"......" originally watched the assistant find himself seriously, and thought that the other party had something important, and after making trouble for a long time, he made this out, Friedman immediately waved his hand angrily, sent the former away, and then continued to daydream that he had not been able to complete just now-
Eyes back on the pitch as the game continued after the celebrations were completed on Crystal Palace's side.
After taking the lead, less than five minutes later, they were equalized by Crystal Palace, and Chelsea, who are at home today and aim to win their opponents, will naturally not give up easily. On the other hand, Crystal Palace, after equalizing the score on the field, naturally rose in spirit, and was not very satisfied with the current draw score!
So, it is a matter of course, after the restart of the game, in the already very bright rhythm of the Premier League, Chelsea and Crystal Palace have teamed up to present a gluttonous feast for the fans who arrived today.
However, it is a pity that although both sides have gained a lot of opportunities while frantically attacking, the goalkeepers standing in front of the goals of both sides today are like gods, high and low, and omnipotent. waited until the first half of the game was over, and neither side was able to rewrite the score on the field again, and the score of 1-1 was maintained by both sides in the middle of the field.
At halftime, Friedman returned to the locker room, just praised the team's performance in the first half, and then, threw down the phrase "keep up the good work", and walked out of the locker room with a single person!
"Toot, toot, toot!" With the whistle of the referee on duty, Mielke, the second half of the Chelsea vs Crystal Palace this round of the Premier League focus battle officially began.
After coming back in the second half, because the midfielder of Crystal Palace received an order from Friedman to continue to attack in the second half, it was inevitable that he would come back in the second half, and Crystal Palace would follow the pace of the first half, trying to win Chelsea in one go.
And it's so happy to say it. On the side of Crystal Palace, coach Friedman's order was to attack, and after the start of the second half, judging from the first few minutes of the game, on the Chelsea side, Scolari's tactics in the midfield were obvious, and they were also attacking.
When two teams that are all aimed at attacking come together, it goes without saying that the scene is very exciting, and it is only a matter of time before the goal comes.
However, what surprised the outside media was that looking at the almost undefended on the field, every time the defense was almost broken by the opponent, the entire defense was shaky for a full 60 minutes, and the score on the field was still 1 to 1.
Seeing that the players on the field could not open the situation for a long time, Friedman, who was standing on the sidelines, was very anxious.
As the on-field manager of Crystal Palace, others may forget a lot of things, but Friedman can't forget because of his profession, not to mention, these things don't need to be deliberately recalled, they have always been in his mind.
There was a period of time in the first half, when Crystal Palace played the most lively time, and the fans were happy to watch the game for more than 10 minutes, but it was very unhappy for the physical strength of the Crystal Palace players. If nothing else, Friedman can be sure that according to the rhythm of the two sides on the field, if it continues like this, the last few minutes of the game are prone to collapse, so it is a last resort, and after 65 minutes of the game, Friedman greeted Sneijder, who happened to come to the sidelines to drink water on the dead ball, and conveyed his latest instructions to the other party.
When Sneijder returned to the pitch, the fans present today soon discovered that on the Crystal Palace side, after 70 minutes of furious attack, the tactics suddenly changed!
Although as the away team, Crystal Palace has been pressed out of the whole line and accompanied Chelsea to play for about 70 minutes, but after Crystal Palace's "shameless" retraction and lifting their turtle shells, the home fans of Stamford Bridge still did not hesitate to send their most sincere boos to the Crystal Palace players on the field!
Listening to the overwhelming boos coming from all sides, what more can the Crystal Palace say here than to smile bitterly?
As men of blood, they also want to play a whole game against Chelsea on their own.
Although in ancient times, there was a saying that generals did not follow military orders abroad, but please don't forget that they are just ordinary players, and in football games, coaches stand on the sidelines. Now that Friedman has made it clear that they want to recycle, who would dare to risk offending the coach to attack?
Perhaps, with Li Yi's current status in the Crystal Palace, he can do this, and even if Li Yi does it, it will not have many serious consequences. However, first of all, Li Yi is not this kind of irrational player, and secondly, due to Li Yi's position limitations, as a striker, he actually wants to work against Friedman, and he has enough spare energy.
As he was talking, Crystal Palace's side, under the siege of the back line, just cut off the ball from Chelsea, and then, the players of the Crystal Palace back line did not try to control the ball first like in the previous game, but with a big foot, directly towards Li Yi near the center circle.
