Chapter 427 1+1 is less than 2

However, the next day, when the Crystal Palace fans rushed to their home stadium to enjoy a wonderful slaughter feast on the spot, they finally ushered in a small 1-0 victory, or even a little bit of a winless ending!

If, if it weren't for Li Yi's penalty created by himself in stoppage time in the second half, then the first game of Crystal Palace in the new season would have been forced to draw by the Magpies!

Although there is a saying in the outside world, that is, there is no weak team in the Premier League, and at the post-match press conference, Friedman also used this reason to prevaricate the outside world's speculation, but why this game was played like this, in fact, Crystal Palace is like a mirror.

To put it simply, the reason why this game is taking the initiative on the field, Crystal Palace has been unable to score for a long time, and it can't open the opponent's door, and it is definitely not that Li Yi's musket is rusty and it doesn't hurt to play, the fundamental reason is that the midfield is not profitable!

And on a deeper look, the weakness of the midfield is reflected in the iron triangle of the Crystal Palace midfield, which was originally pinned on by Friedman!

Yaya Toure - Modric - Sneijder!

These three people, it can be said responsibly, they are separated, no matter which team they are placed in, they are all first-class bulls, and it is not easy to let them be responsible for sorting out the offense of a team! It stands to reason that the midfielder composed of such 3 players should be very good.

However, what makes Friedman more entangled is that judging from this game, when these three people are on the court at the same time, the utility they embody is definitely 1+1 less than 2. Even, it is no exaggeration to say that when these 3 people are on the court at the same time, it may be better to put only one player on it!

What makes Friedman even more speechless is that among the above three, the worst two are not Modric and Sneijder as he predicted earlier, but Yaya Toure and Modric.

In short, after seeing that the situation on the field could not be opened in the second half, Friedman replaced Yaya Toure with Muntari, and the improvement of Crystal Palace's attack was immediate, and it immediately improved a notch.

But it is precisely because of this that Friedman, who has always been calm and has made up his mind to pay attention to the first three league games of the new season, is even more entangled! ――

Grabbing his hair, which had been messed up like a chicken nest, Friedman sat in his office, looking in the direction of the pitch from afar, tangled.

Judging from the situation in the last game, how the team should play, in fact, it is not simple, replace Yaya Toure, or Modric, arrange a Muntari or Sissoko, play the role of a midfielder-stirring stick, and then let Yaya Toure give full play to his help in the team's attack!

But is it really that simple?

Joke? Who is Modric? That is the third person in the Crystal Palace team, except for Li Yi and Bale, and even, in the eyes of many fans, Modric is the second person in Crystal Palace!

In other words, although Friedman does not have to be the head coach of Crystal Palace, after winning the league championship trophy last season, even if Friedman leaves Crystal Palace, I believe it is not too difficult for him to find a job in other teams in the Premier League.

However, who wants to be bald with hair? If you can find a job, can you find a job, and other teams can give you a sense of belonging to Crystal Palace and a sense of accomplishment in chasing honors? It's hard to think about!

So, although he didn't talk about it to anyone, Friedman was thinking more about the team's performance in the new season, but how he should stay after the end of the season!

If you want to stay, what about others Friedman doesn't know, he thinks that in this Crystal Palace, which only has the potential of a wealthy family, if you want to stay, you must first establish your own team, this is certain! Then, Modric is extremely precious to Friedman!

The new players are more or less smashed by Mansour with money, this kind of player, Friedman boasts that his personality charm is not big enough to exceed the euro, so that the other party likes himself more than he likes the euro, so just give up!

But Modric is different! As a fighter who has been picked up by himself, Friedman believes that with the character that Modric usually shows, he will definitely stand up and support himself when he needs it, just like Li Yi!

Therefore, under this premise, what to do, Friedman will not and dare not chill Modric's heart! Besides, if Friedman really dared to put Modric on the bench, fans who wanted to come to Crystal Palace would never agree.

Modric can't move, so move Yaya Toure?

Well, who is Yaya Toure? Mansour just poached from Barcelona for 36 million euros in the summer!

At such a big price, I didn't use Yaya Toure, but Sissoko or Montari, which were several times cheaper? How do you think about it, Friedman thinks that if he really wants to do this, maybe he will not be far from leaving the Crystal Palace?

"Ahh It's annoying! In the past two days, Friedman, who was dizzy and dizzy, exaggerated himself and patted his forehead!

After glancing in the direction of the team's training ground, Friedman, who hadn't come up with anything too good, muttered, "Forget it, take one step at a time!" When a player reaches the point where they are, I believe that I don't need to say it, and I know how to adjust on the field! Now, let's take it one step at a time and give them a little more time. ”――

Well, I have to say that although Friedman is really not very qualified in tactical settings, on-the-spot command of Shenma, and especially in places that test the ability of coaches, he still has a certain ability to look at people.

So what, Yaya Toure, Modric, Sneijder, as world-class players, do have a lot of self-regulation ability on the court!

No, after playing the first round of the Premier League, on August 26, Crystal Palace welcomed their second round of the league.

In this round of the league, facing the opponent before the start of the new season, he has already played against the opponent Portsmouth twice, and Crystal Palace is once again sacrificing his weapons, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch! After a lot of bombardment, with Li Yi scoring twice, Sneijder, Yaya Toure, and Bale all presenting their first goals of the new season, they bloodied Portsmouth 5-0 away.

After playing this game, what made Friedman happiest was not the score, but the team's midfield iron triangle, which made efforts and tacit cooperation, and presented wonderful cooperation to the fans again and again!

After watching the performance of the players on the field, Friedman, who had not slept well for more than 10 days, finally slept comfortably that night.

However, while Friedman relaxed, he seemed to ignore a question, that is, is it really possible that the lack of tacit understanding between players on the court can be fundamentally solved in such a short period of time?

Maybe it's a possibility, but unfortunately, Friedman himself certainly didn't catch up!

Otherwise, it would not be possible to explain the rout of Crystal Palace in the next game, against a real Premier League rival!

Well, of course, at this time, it's still a little too early to talk about the next game!

Because, after playing in the second round of the Premier League, there is something much more important than a league game, waiting for Crystal Palace!
