Is the Midas touch or
he is just an all-around savior whatever squads in trouble he gets to manage, as
these are saved by this man abilities that makes him perform better, under all
sorts of pressure.
Let’s recall last
campaign miracle at Stadium of Light, here he left a winning attitude built on
pure persistence before he was called by the English FA to managed the
destinies of its national squad.
Not before, he saved
the Black Cats of demotion to the infamous Championship League.
However that was one
of the many qualities that this man has and his success of a turnaround with
his squads, being in danger of suffocation- by delivering pure oxygen in the
right moment.
Since his arrival at
Selhurst Park and a couple of odd results, this man ego bruised, suddenly he is
rallying his Crystal Palace Eagles to a grand revival and looking forward to their
salvation.
With a match schedule
on a Monday night, the scenario of Selhurst Park in South London, we may call this
a sort of London Derby when they faced a troubled but persistent Arsenal squad
coming to town and looking for three valuable points.
The odds of making a
stand against the Gunners many saw it impossible but not difficult due to the positive
momentum this club is going lately and the way the Emirates based eleven is
playing, a win was within the locals grasps.
Still ninety minutes
were to play and they had to perform to continue their magnificent run.
With April being an important
month in Premiership and the penultimate with all of its matches being seen of
elevated importance for all twenty Premiership squads, the sky’s the limit for
the Glaziers looking forward to keep adding point’s to their overall count.
As both squads Bosses
sending the same formations with lone attacker up front in a 4-2-3-1 the visitors
with Danny Welbeck and the locals with Christian Benteke, the forecast for this
match looked very disputed if not even.
For a match the Gunners
looking forward to the win and keep their chase on the top four spots, the
afternoon belonged to the local Eagles playing like there was no tomorrow and not
being intimated by their cross-town neighbors clout.
The Glaziers 11 did
put on a show in front of a sold out crowd that gathered in Norwood’s colossus to
witness a lesson in dynamic football displayed by the local’s midfield in Townsend,
Cabaye and Milivojevic scores.
Giving keeper Hennessy
a clean sheet, despite the Arsenal bunch dominance in the general stats with
72% possession in contrast of 27% for the locals, with the score in the match
favoring the locals.
The irony of football
and the thrill of victory for the Crystal Palace Boys that this win allows this
squad to breathe a little with six points cushion from relegation, as the
league is far from over.
One thing for sure
this squad played with an all-around inspiration and pure heart when they got
the ball in their possession as the likes of playing in a final and with the
way they played for sure they would been lifting the silverware.
Kudos for the Palace Boys
in stopping cold an eleven with Sanchez, Ozil, Welbeck, Walcott and company of
not developing or being comfortable in the game they are familiar with and
shutting this offensive machine cold.
For the Palace Boys it
is now to King Power Stadium and face another squad in a hot streak in
Leicester City who lost this weekend to the Everton Toffees and this game for
sure will see the best of these squad’s resources.
