Legendary Godfather

Manchester, Etihad Training Base, Multimedia Tactical Analysis Room.

Guardiola and his coaching staff gathered together to watch the Community Shield match between Crystal Palace and Chelsea.

This is not a live broadcast, but video information collected and compiled by the coaching staff's data collection and analysis team.

This video is not only about the Community Shield match between Crystal Palace and Chelsea, but also all the game video materials and video analysis of Crystal Palace's Asia tour.

Therefore, Guardiola and the others have been here for more than three hours now.

This shows how much they attach importance to the Crystal Palace.

The most important thing is that yesterday, Crystal Palace easily defeated Chelsea 3-0 in the Community Shield match, which shocked Guardiola.

Neither he nor his coaching staff expected Crystal Palace to beat Chelsea so easily.

They were even very curious about how Crystal Palace defeated Chelsea.

After all, Chelsea was super strong last season, very powerful. This summer, they have introduced so many talented players, and their strength has been greatly improved. It should be very difficult for Crystal Palace to defeat Chelsea.

But what about the result?

Crystal Palace slaughtered Chelsea.

Do you think they can't be curious?

Then Guardiola asked the data analysis team to collect and organize the data. Just after finishing it, Guardiola took his right-hand assistants to the multimedia tactical analysis room to watch the video data.

It took two or three hours to watch.

The more the media looked at Guardiola, the more they frowned!

After a while, Guardiola sighed, "We have really been misled by those damn media reporters. Is this a Crystal Palace that has greatly declined in strength? Do they understand football?"

Arteta, Trent, Planchart, Buenaventura and others all smiled bitterly.

Before seeing these video materials, they still agreed with the words of the media reporters. For Crystal Palace, Ignacio was seriously injured and his career ended, and Ibrahimovic and Jimenez left. In their view, Crystal Palace's strength will definitely decline.

Even the introduction of Ronaldo, Giroud and others is the same.

But they didn't expect that after seeing these videos, they all felt a crisis.

Guardiola looked at everyone, and Arteta immediately said, "The competition in the Premier League in the new season is probably very fierce, and the strength of Crystal Palace is probably no worse than last season. And Ronaldo seems to have no decline in strength. Let me tell you, with him here, Crystal Palace will be difficult to deal with in the new season!"

Guardiola's coaching staff nodded in agreement.

This video has made it very clear, and a lot of horizontal comparisons of data have been done in different groups. Ronaldo's strength this season should still be among the top in the world.

Place

Crystal Palace's strength in this new season may not be worse than last season.

In fact, the data analysis team even concluded that the Crystal Palace in the new season is stronger than the Crystal Palace last season.

If this is the case, then probably no team will be able to beat Crystal Palace's results in the new season, right?

Trent also said, "From the data, Crystal Palace will indeed be very strong in the new season. He should be our biggest competitor of Manchester City this season. Their offensive strength has been improved, especially With the addition of Ronaldo and Giroud, it will be very difficult for our Manchester City team to win the championship in the new season!"

Other members of the coaching staff echoed the sentiment.

Guardiola also recognized them, but Guardiola said, "Actually, there is a big problem that you are not aware of!"

Arteta and others turned their heads in confusion and looked at Guardiola!

What are we not aware of?

Guardiola immediately replayed the video and showed several scenes of Van Dijk's defense, which made Arteta and other assistants deep in thought.

Guardiola continued, "You only noticed Crystal Palace's offense, but not their defense! You should be able to feel it from these few scenes. Van Dijk has evolved again, and his defensive strength and awareness have improved. A step up.”

The assistants immediately began to watch carefully and carefully.

Guardiola also said, "Look at his defense against Lukaku and Chelsea's offensive players these few times. In one-on-one situations, he almost always has the upper hand. And look at his defense against each other." A success rate of 1. Looking at his defensive choices, this is not a small improvement!"

hiss!

Members of the Manchester City coaching staff gasped one after another!

At this time, Planchart also answered and said, "And it's not just Van Dijk. The entire defensive system of Crystal Palace is becoming more and more mature, and the overall defensive strength has also risen to a big level. This game is actually not Chelsea. His poor performance was not what fans and media reporters said about Lukaku. Lukaku was in very good shape in this game and played well. He was offside too many times and it was not because of him. Chuzhuang, not because he is the King of Yue, but because the Crystal Palace’s defense is too strong!”

After hearing this, the members of the coaching staff immediately replayed the video and watched it over and over again, staring at every detail.

They were horrified!

Indeed, as Guardiola and Planchart said, Crystal Palace's overall defense has improved a lot, matured a lot, and has become very strong!

Lukaku was in very good shape in this game, but he was very embarrassed by Crystal Palace's defense.

That's it

This is where Crystal Palace excels in the new season!

hiss!

The Manchester City coaching staff fell silent for a moment and remained silent for a long time.

They originally thought that Crystal Palace's strength would drop significantly in the new season, but after careful study, they found that not only did Crystal Palace not drop, but its offense and defense had greatly improved, becoming even more powerful. Their hearts seemed to be pressed by a big stone and they couldn't breathe. .??.

After a while, Guardiola said, "Guys, we are very busy in the new season! Crystal Palace's strength has not declined, but has improved. This Chinese is very powerful, and we will be very busy in the next period. I hope everyone will be busy and analyze more Crystal Palace game videos in the near future to look for their technical and tactical shortcomings and loopholes so that we can target Crystal Palace. If we don’t do this, it will be very difficult for our Manchester City team to win the championship in the new season. Yes!"

The coaches of the Manchester City team looked serious and nodded one after another.

They know they have to do this, otherwise their Manchester City team will have almost no chance in the new season!

But at this time, they saw the improvement in Crystal Palace's strength, and they also felt tremendous pressure. But they have not lost confidence, they still believe in their strength. It's just that if they want to win the championship in the new season, they will have to spend more effort and more time.

So, they have to get busy now!

Guardiola immediately nodded and said, "Guys, time waits for no one, so get busy!"

Manchester City's coaching staff jumped into action and started putting in a lot of work.

At this time, the training teams at Carrington Training Base, Melwood Training Base and Colney Training Base are repeating the above story.

The head coaches and coaching staff of these Premier League giants are studying Crystal Palace.

Who told you that Crystal Palace performed so well last season?

Crystal Palace is the target of public criticism!

Crystal Palace's easy 3-0 slaughter of Chelsea really shocked the coaches and coaching staff of these giants. They all have to study Crystal Palace carefully, otherwise, they will be doomed this season.

The more they study, the more they know how powerful Crystal Palace is in the new season. It will be difficult to play in the new season!

They think the Crystal Palace team's offensive power is pretty good, mainly because Crystal Palace's improved defense strength makes them feel the pressure. This is a substantial improvement. When they face Crystal Palace in the future, they will face huge defensive pressure.

During this time, reporters from outside media have also been more enthusiastic about Crystal Palace.

Yes, passing this Community Shield game has indeed changed the views of many reporters. They all feel that Crystal Palace is still very strong in the new season. They all feel that Crystal Palace only needs

If they don't have any problems, they still have a high chance of winning the Premier League championship.

Especially when Crystal Palace defeated Chelsea so easily!

Yes, Chelsea are in dire straits now. As long as everyone mentions Crystal Palace now, they will not mention Chelsea's easy 3-0 defeat by Crystal Palace. Now Chelsea has become the standard for measuring the strength of Crystal Palace, which makes Chelsea fans very unhappy.

At this time, Sir Alex Ferguson actually stood up and accepted interviews with media reporters and commented on Crystal Palace.

Sir Alex Ferguson said this: "To be honest, I am still optimistic about Crystal Palace this season. The strength and ability they showed really surprised me. David is really good. I have underestimated Crystal Palace and Manchester United this season. Defender's club will regret it. I hope Jose will carefully study the game between Crystal Palace and Chelsea, figure out Crystal Palace's technical tactics and true level, and make corresponding responses. Otherwise, in the new season, Manchester United will It’s very difficult!”

Yes, Sir Alex Ferguson is looking forward to Manchester United now!

Firstly, this is Mourinho's second season with Manchester United. Mourinho in his second year is known to be invincible.

This season Manchester United is very likely to return to the top and win the league championship.

Moreover, Mourinho also led Manchester United to win the Europa League last season. This season they can participate in the Champions League as Europa League champions.

Therefore, he reminded Mourinho that he hopes Manchester United can achieve brilliant results in the new season!

Yes, UEFA has officially confirmed that the winner of the Europa League will directly qualify for the Champions League next season, starting from this season. Therefore, Manchester United will qualify for the Champions League in the new season.

This also happened to coincide with Mu's second year, so Ferguson had more expectations for Manchester United this season.

He also frequently reminded Mourinho to value Crystal Palace and Tong Yi, and said that Manchester United's biggest enemy is Tong Yi's Crystal Palace. As long as Crystal Palace is targeted, Manchester United will definitely succeed this season.

After seeing reports about Sir Alex Ferguson, more people realized the power of Crystal Palace. Even after this meeting, some betting companies directly adjusted the odds of winning the championship. Crystal Palace's side rose sharply and directly came to second place, only behind Manchester City and ahead of Chelsea.

Tong Yi Zuoran also frowned when he saw this. To be honest, he still doesn't want to attract everyone's attention. It is best to develop in secret. But now it seems impossible, and he can only be speechless!

However, he didn't care, and now his mode has been adjusted to competition mode.

At this time, he is leading the Crystal Palace players to prepare for the 2017 European Super Cup. They are launching an attack on their second championship this season!
