In the 6th round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace will face Liverpool, which is currently ranked No. 1 in the league. Before the game, Crystal Palace coach Glasner talked about the game at a press conference. Talk about Liverpool We have been lo...
Talk about Liverpool
We have been looking forward to a showdown with the champion. We want to compete and challenge the strongest team. Liverpool was the best team last year as they won the Premier League title. But I think we showed our competitiveness in the Community Shield and at the end of last season.
This is what we want to show again tomorrow: we are competitive and then see how the game turns out.
Talk about staying unbeaten
I don't care. Last year we played the worst Premier League start in the history of teams, but ended up breaking a good record!
We don't care much about the record. Of course, maintaining a positive record is always better than losing points all the time. But of course I told the players that the goal is not to stay unbeaten, but to win the game.
If the final draw is drawn, we must also accept it. But we always have to pursue the best result, that is to win the game. We will do our best to achieve this goal. Of course, I know that some opponents will try to avoid being unbeaten, which is exactly why football is fun!
Talk about Liverpool's lineup
They have many excellent players and an excellent coach. I admire Slott very much, he won the championship in his first Premier League team.
They will look for attacking space, including Isak, Sobosloy and McAllister, who all know how to use space. If you don't give them space, they also have great wing assaulters like Salah and Garkebo.
They are also excellent in set pieces. Van Dijk scored a final goal against Atletico Madrid, and their system is also clear, it is not just a saying.
On the other hand, they have proved that this season they have always—a bit similar to us—believe that they can win. They have a lot of last-minute goals to win the game. This stems from their strength, team structure and offensive threats.
Talking about opponents
They (Isaac and Ekitic) are very similar: they are very fast, have strong running skills, accurate running position, and are good at scoring goals. They scored goals in Southampton.
Isaac showed this last year, and he is a good striker. He knows where to go and is a good terminator.
But our Matt Tower is doing well too!
Talking about the comparison between this game and the Community Shield
Slott has his style of playing, and we have our own style of playing. We looked back at that game and were sure they were looking for their opponents’ weaknesses, just like us.
We will clearly know where their threat lies, how they want to play and attack. But it won't just defend. We will look for opportunities and their weaknesses.
We scored two goals last time. Now this game is to show the players again how we can create opportunities and score goals. On the other hand, we also need to consolidate the defense to control their offensive players.
This will be a huge challenge.
