The game will take place at 3 p.m.

After a group dinner at noon, the Croydon players took an hour and a half rest before heading to Celhurst Stadium, which is no stranger to the Croydon players, most of them are Crystal Palace fans, and if the time does not conflict, they will come to see the Championship game of Crystal Palace, so there is really no problem of stage fright.

But playing at Selhurst is not a common thing, both in terms of facilities and venue conditions, Selhurst is much better than Croydon's bad pitch, and everyone praises Crystal Palace's stadium.

"Gentlemen! It's a beautiful stadium, isn't it?! After swinging around the stadium, back in the away team's locker room, about to enter the warm-up stage, Wen Sheng took advantage of the time for everyone to change equipment to ask everyone.

"Of course, it's much prettier here!"

"Needless to say, there are more than 20,000 people seated here! Tsk, it's like to be able to play in front of such a fan..."

There are all kinds of answers, as a player, who doesn't want to show themselves on a bigger stage, Selhurst is not ordinary for everyone.

"Have you ever played here?!" Wen Sheng continued to ask.

"Daniel, this isn't the first time!" Captain Stephen Hawking smiled, "We've been here to play football before!" ”

Generally speaking, the friendly field of summer training generally chooses the home field of the low-level team, because this can bring ticket income to the low-level team, why should people be a sparring partner for you if there is no benefit! Because of the summer training, the strong team abused vegetables and played friendly matches to the home of the strong team, but there were very few of them.

The Croydon players are familiar with Celhurst because they have been watching Crystal Palace for a long time and don't play at the stadium very often.

Wen Sheng's question was not an act of ignorance.

"Mr. Hawking, can you tell me about that game?!" Wen Sheng asked with a curious baby's face.

Hawking immediately changed color, looked carefully at Wen Sheng's eyes, and wondered if Wen Sheng did it on purpose.

Needless to say, I was abused by the Crystal Palace!

"Tell me, Mr. Hawking!"

"Tell me, Donner!"

Many of the players who did not participate in that friendly match were curious and ignorant, and they all cheered for Wensheng.

"This..."Lost miserably, 10:0, who is embarrassed to mention that game?! Hawking was embarrassed to say that his buddy lost so much that his underwear was gone.

"It's just a friendly match, what's so embarrassing to say! Crystal Palace beat us to the ground in that game! That's right, it's a special falling flower! 10:0, the most Croydon loses in more than ten years! One of the players in the team who played that friendly with Hawking yelled loudly.

Not ashamed but proud, Wen Sheng scolded in his stomach.

The score of 10:0 really shocked everyone!

Because after all, it's a friendly match, everyone has to take care of some face, and as a strong team, they have more important leagues to play, and they can't be so serious at all, and the players who provoke the opponent and hurt themselves outweigh the losses.

Over the years, Croydon has not only faced Crystal Palace, but also Farmer Fulham, Arsenal, Arsenal, etc., have asked them to be warm-up opponents, not as bad as Hawking, they lost too much.

Everyone was talking, and Wen Sheng observed everyone's attitude.

Some people pondered, but the vast majority didn't care, claiming that Hawking was just unlucky enough to meet a "serious" Crystal Palace, and it was just a friendly match, and it was not a big deal.

It stands to reason that it's just a friendly match, it's really not a big deal, but today is different, because Wen Sheng doesn't want to lose!

Just kidding, how can I show it if I lose?!

That painful defeat happened ten years ago, and many people have forgotten it, but Wen Sheng already knew that today was deliberately to lead to these words, and he had something to say.

"Quiet! Be quiet! Wen Sheng clapped his hands and signaled to everyone, during this time, the players had slowly adapted to Wen Sheng's authority, he spoke, and many discussants really quieted down.

"I just listened very carefully to everyone's discussions! A lot of people say it's just a friendly match, it's not a big deal at all! Wen Sheng shrugged and paused.

"Is that really the case?! If everyone has that attitude, then why do we have to play friendlies?! Why not just raise your hand and surrender to them?! ”

"Don't tell me you guys came playing with that mentality today?!"

"The stadium is the battlefield, and if you go to the battlefield, you have to fight hard, how can there be a reason to abandon your weapons and surrender before you get on it?! Only a coward will surrender directly! Football is the greatest sport in the history of mankind, and it is a competitive sport! Do you know what it means?! ”

"I don't like your attitude! I wonder what the hell I've been doing all this time?! I raised a bunch of cowards to come out?! ”

Wen Sheng squirted violently, and the players of Croydon were dumbfounded.

Of course, Wensheng is right, and it is not easy for everyone to oppose if they have ideas.

"Gentlemen! I would like to remind you that friendly matches exist because both the opponents and we hope that the tournament will achieve a certain goal! ”

"For Crystal Palace, they want to find a feel through our 'weak' team before the new season and practice their tactical routine for the new season, for them maybe the goal is not the focus at all, but the run-in of the formation and tactics! ”

"And what about us?! Isn't it the same?! Is it just for a little appearance fee they give?! Don't you think we can have a lot to gain against a team that's much better than us?! ”

"Don't you want to test the results of everyone's hard work during this time?! Don't you want to let today's game be a game that you can talk about for years?! ”

"Guys, I don't want to lose! I also think we can do it, and I have absolute confidence in you! Crystal Palace is not as strong as you think! ”

Wen Sheng gradually ignited everyone's fighting spirit and passion.

And he was right, Crystal Palace is not as powerful as it seems.

This team is actually in a stormy time right now, everyone knows it.

Crystal Palace boss Simon. Jordan bought Crystal Palace in 2000 and he worked with Neil. Warnock is a good friend and wanted to invite Neil many years ago. Warnock went to Crystal Palace to coach but it wasn't until 2007 that Neil Murphy took charge. Warnock made the trip.

Said to be a friend is actually Simon. Jordan is taking a fancy to Neil. Warnock's ability to train the weak team, I hope Warnock can lead Crystal Palace to upgrade, after all, he can only make a lot of money as a profiteer in the Premier League.

Neil. Warnock has that magical ability, if you only have £1 in your hand, Warnock can make it £50.

He's proven this ability on multiple teams, and Simon has proven that ability. Jordan asked Warnock to coach Crystal Palace.

But Warnock, no matter how magical it is, depends on what team it is, and it turns out that he didn't come to Crystal Palace so correctly.

Three years have passed, Warnock has not brought Crystal Palace to upgrade, and the reason has to be said to be Simon. Jordan's problem, this guy has less and less money to play in the club, and now he is no longer able to support it, just survive, no matter how good Warnock is, there is no way.

The fluctuating Crystal Palace naturally did not come in and out in the summer, and the strength of the team was not terrifyingly strong.

The encouragement for everyone was almost done, and Wen Sheng took the players out to warm up collectively.

There were already some fans in the audience.
