Of course, they have been adapting to the Valley Stadium for a long time now. Their pre-season warm-up matches were all played at the rented Valley Stadium, and they are very familiar with this stadium.

However, the Valley Stadium is not big, and it is still a long way from Croytown in South London. Therefore, on home match days, Crystal Palace starts a lot earlier than usual, which is a little troublesome.

But many media reporters are actually not optimistic about this deal!

These media reporters all feel that Ibrahimovic is old, and he is working almost full time at Paris Saint-Germain, and his body is very tired. In the new season, for Ibrahimovic, Crystal Palace's strength must have dropped significantly.

Ibra

Himovic is probably the most disappointing signing in the Premier League this season!

Ibrahimovic can't compare to Balotelli and Ignacio!

At this time, the reporter from the camera crew interviewed Ibrahimovic and asked, "Zlatan, what made you choose Crystal Palace? It is said that Chelsea and Manchester United were interested in you at the time!"

Indeed, both Manchester United and Chelsea had contacted Ibrahimovic.

However, Manchester United finally chose Balotelli, and Chelsea has Diego Costa, so Ibrahimovic will naturally not choose Chelsea.

Ibrahimovic said calmly, "Crystal Palace lacks a main center! So I'm here!"

The reporter was slightly stunned, not expecting Ibrahimovic to answer like this!

Then he asked, "How do you feel after coming to Crystal Palace?"

Ibrahimovic still had a calm expression and said, "It feels very good. This is a positive team. Every player works very hard and desperately. And the level of the coaching staff is very high. It is not a loss but a win." The team that won the Premier League and Champions League titles. I feel great here and it fills me with hope and energy!"

The reporter nodded slightly and continued to ask, "What do you think of Crystal Palace's current strength? What are your goals for the new season?"

Ibrahimovic said bluntly, "Currently, my strength is very strong, and it is not like some guys outside said that our strength has dropped a lot. I think we are very strong, and we will definitely disappoint some guys in the new season. As for The goal for the new season is of course the league championship!”

The reporter's eyes widened in disbelief!

Are you a little arrogant?

You are no longer the Crystal Palace team last season. How dare you shout the slogan of winning the championship? Don’t you know that except for Adriana and a few others, almost no one thinks highly of you now? Are you a little overconfident and blind?

However, these words were not spoken.

He asked, "What about you personally? What are your personal goals for the new season?"

Ibrahimovic said calmly, "I don't have any special goals. I hope to score 30 goals in the new season and lead Crystal Palace to win the Premier League championship! I know many of you look down on our Crystal Palace and feel that we It is impossible to win the championship in the new season! However, what I want to tell you is that with me here, Crystal Palace will definitely win the championship in the new season!"

hiss!

Sure enough, even though he is older and more experienced, he is still so confident!

This is Ibrahimovic!

The reporter knew that after the promotional video was released, it would definitely cause an uproar. Ibrahimovic will definitely attract a lot of criticism from media reporters and fans. Ibrahimovic

Qi, this guy is too arrogant, he underestimates the Premier League a little too much!

Crystal Palace is finished!

Then, the reporter went to interview other Crystal Palace players!

Standing in front of him now was Crystal Palace captain Van Dijk. He asked, "Excuse me, Virgil, what do you think is the difference between Crystal Palace throughout this season and last season? Is there a big change?"

Van Dijk rubbed his nose, and then said, "There must be changes. After all, we have left many players this summer, such as Sadio and Aymeric, etc. Their departure has indeed had a great impact on us." . But the impact is not as big as outside media reporters and fans imagined. Moreover, these new players we have added are not bad. I feel that our overall strength has not declined. I am already full of expectations for the new season!"

The reporter was stunned for a moment, and then immediately asked, "What exactly are the expectations you are referring to?"

As the captain of Crystal Palace, Van Dijk said eloquently, "Just as you think, our goal for Crystal Palace in the new season is to defend the Premier League championship! And, I think our Crystal Palace has this ability!"

The reporters were a little stunned!

It seems that the success of Crystal Palace last season made these players a little too confident. They were too blindly confident!

Don’t you know how much money the Premier League giants like Manchester United, Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal have spent on the transfer market in the new season? The strength of your Crystal Palace has declined. The strength of other giants is increasing crazily. One is declining, the other is increasing. How can your Crystal Palace win the championship?

Are you dreaming?

The interviews of these guys are really bombshells. If this is released, Crystal Palace will definitely attract a lot of criticism. The Crystal Palace in the new season will probably become a joke.

The reporter asked again, "Excuse me, Virgil, where does your confidence come from?"

Van Dijk smiled slightly and said, "My confidence comes from the strength of our team, from the strength and experience of our boss. I know there are many people who are not optimistic about us now, but what I want to say is, you are all wrong! The new season We will use our performance to let you know how wrong you are. Our goal at Crystal Palace in the new season is to defend the Premier League title!"

hiss!

This is the second time Van Dijk has mentioned this goal. It is obvious that he is not just talking!

It seems that the current Crystal Palace players are very confident, a little too confident.

The reporter finally asked, "Do you have any personal goals for the new season? For example, win the Premier League's best player award or the Premier League's best central defender award?"

At this time, Van Dijk's answer exceeded his expectations.

Van Dijk said directly, "My personal goal is to contribute my greatest energy and help Crystal Palace defend the Premier League championship!"

Well, the third time!

It can be seen that no matter what the outside world does

Said, they are really confident!

Then the reporter interviewed other Crystal Palace players. Of course, the interview questions also changed!

When he interviewed Salah, he asked this question: "May I ask Mohammed, what do you think of the crazy investment in signings by the major clubs in the Premier League this summer? Do you think this will have an impact on your Crystal Palace? What kind of impact will it bring?" Influence?"

Salah didn't even think about it and said directly, "To be honest, the investment in the Premier League this summer is really crazy. Isn't the entire Premier League going to have to invest 1.5 billion pounds? These giants are crazy about signings, they Their strength will definitely be greatly improved. This does have some impact on our Crystal Palace, but I don’t think they can threaten our Crystal Palace. After all, after introducing these players, they still need to run in. As for whether they can run in well ,this is a problem!"

The reporter was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Salah was also very confident!

Salah continued, "Although our Crystal Palace sold a lot of players this summer, it did not have a great impact on our Crystal Palace lineup. We will not spend too much time on running-in, and now we are running-in It’s very good, and I believe we will show our strength in the new season that will shock everyone.”

Well, no need to ask, Salah’s goal is also to defend the Premier League championship, right?

It seems that the goal of the entire Crystal Palace players is to defend the Premier League championship, right?

The reporter also asked De Bruyne, the Premier League's Player of the Season last season!

His question was, "Excuse me, Kevin, what are your Crystal Palace goals for the new season? What are your personal goals?"

Boudrone said directly, "We at Crystal Palace have only one goal, and that is to defend the Premier League championship! My personal goal is also to defend the Premier League championship!"

hiss!

The Crystal Palace players were stunned, completely stunned!

Then, the reporter stopped asking other players this question because he knew he would get exactly the same answer!

This reporter finally interviewed the young Mbappe!

He asked, "Are you afraid that you will be the main force for Crystal Palace in the new season? Are you afraid that others will compare you with Mane?"

Mbappe smiled crookedly and said lightly, "What do I have to be afraid of? I'm not afraid, only looking forward to it! I can't wait to start the game for Crystal Palace now! As for comparing me with Mane, I just It can be said that we are not the same type of players, there is no comparison! I don’t know if I can be better than Mane, but my performance in the new season will definitely not be bad! I will become one of the sharp offensive tools in the new season!”

Well, the reporters are numb!

These guys at Crystal Palace are really crazy, and they are all overly confident!

Based on the things and state shown by the Crystal Palace players, the reporter feels that the Crystal Palace will definitely lose its legs in the new season, and the Crystal Palace will be finished in the new season!
