In the 10th round of the 2025-26 Premier League season, Crystal Palace will host Brentford. Manager Oliver Glasner spoke about the opponent's performance and the team's tactical beliefs.
In the pre-match press conference, Glasner praised Brentford's speed and execution, while emphasizing the importance of establishing a team identity. Glasner stated that he watched Brentford's previous match against Liverpool and was impressed with their overall performance.
Glasner said: "They played with a lot of energy and a fast pace, especially Schade and Outtara who brought a whole new speed. Striker Igor showed the feel of a top striker after returning from injury, and Damsgaard was also very smart in organizing the attack."
“I really admire them. They sometimes press high up the pitch, and sometimes they drop deep to defend; their formation is very compact. This is a Premier League match, and we expect it to be a high-intensity challenge. Our players are currently in very good form and full of confidence for this match.”
Speaking about Crystal Palace's style, Glasner said: "I can only lead the team to practice the values I believe in. The team's identity is reflected not only in the way we play on the field, but also in our attitude, mutual support and cohesion."
"It's not about right or wrong, but about staying true to yourself. I'm just conveying the values I believe in to the players, without asking them to do things I wouldn't do. We have a great environment, a group of excellent players and people with strong character, and that's what drives the team forward."
