Chapter 629 Shevchenko (Seeking Monthly Ticket Subscription)
Wenger admires Aston Villa very much.
Or, play with your wording and use the word 'envy' for certain emotions.
Fang Jue's Aston Villa lived out what Wenger's Arsenal wanted to live out.
Buy and sell players.
Make big money.
Can still win the championship!
very nice.
However, Wenger does not think that everything is good for Aston Villa.
Wenger couldn't understand Fang Jue's preference for visa-free veterans.
Aren't those energetic and vigorous young ladies not fragrant?
Those old guys who are exempt from visas in their twilight careers, the most important thing is to pay high salaries. This behavior is incomprehensible to Wenger.
In the first two rounds of the Premier League, Shevchenko started one game and came off the bench in one game. His performance was very sluggish.
Wenger has been paying attention to Aston Villa, and he is very happy about this situation.
This is not simply gloating over competitors.
Van Nistelrooy left, and Fang Jue introduced Shevchenko. If Ukraine performed poorly and could not make up for the vacancy left by the Dutchman, it would directly affect Aston Villa's scoring ability.
And that's what Arsenal want to see.
...
"Welcome to Villa Park Stadium! You are watching a focus match in the third round of the 2010/2011 Premier League season, against Aston Villa and Arsenal."
"Currently in the Premier League standings, Chelsea leads with 6 points from both games, while Arsenal, Aston Villa, Manchester United, Manchester City and Bolton all have 4 points."
"In the previous games, apart from Manchester City losing 1-0 away to Sunderland, both Chelsea and Manchester United won. So whether it's Villa playing at home or Arsenal playing away, they obviously hope To be able to beat each other and avoid being drawn by Chelsea and Manchester United."
Villa Park Stadium at night, brightly lit.
Under the floodlights, the stadium is like daytime.
Players from both sides line up to enter the field.
The stadium immediately erupted with huge cheers, and the whole stadium has fallen into a frenzied atmosphere.
Aston Villa won the Premier League last season, which directly stimulated Aston Villa's football market in the new season.
Statistics show that Aston Villa's ticket sales work is the best among the twenty teams in the Premier League.
At Villa Park Stadium, almost every home game day can be described as 'full of seats'.
For them, football is not a pastime outside of life, it is their life, part of their river of life.
Before the start of the new season, "The Times" specially introduced the home stadiums of the 20 Premier League teams, among which Villa Park Stadium was included in the ranks of the "Devil's Home Stadium".
Any team here will face tremendous pressure.
...
Seeing that Fang Jue arranged for Shevchenko and Ronaldo to start together.
Wenger was surprised in his heart.
This is the most unlikely combination of strikers that he and the coaching staff agree on.
In other words, Wenger really thought that Fang Jue could not send Ukrainians to start. Aston Villa is the stadium for the championship, and Arsenal is Aston Villa's direct opponent for the championship. In such a focus game, Fang Jue should Not so doggedly insisting on using Shevchenko: It's tantamount to a self-destructive offense.
So Wenger was surprised.
Then, joy burst from the bottom of the professor's heart.
He realized that he had underestimated Fang Jue's stubbornness.
This is probably the common problem of many young people after they quickly become famous. People will drift, become conceited, and cannot tolerate doubts.
Wenger can already imagine Fang Jue's mentality:
You all say that Shevchenko is not good, but I don't believe it! I want to prove that I am right.
That's fine, Wenger loves it.
...
"In the transfer market, Arsenal has nothing to be proud of as before. Koscielny is used to fill the gap, and Chamark is just icing on the cake. If they want to make a breakthrough in the new season, Wenger said very clearly that it depends on the ball. The potential of the team itself," Lineker said.
"Age structure determines that Arsenal's many young players may reach a new level in the new season. If Nasri, Walcott, Wilshere and others can really improve by one piece as Wenger said, then The improvement to the team cannot be underestimated, and this is also the key to Arsenal's hope of breaking the zero championship." Tony Parker is more optimistic about Arsenal.
"At the beginning of the season, Ferguson said that Manchester United's biggest opponents to win the championship are Chelsea and Aston Villa." Mortensen said, "Ancelotti said that Chelsea's biggest opponents to win the championship are Manchester United and Aston Villa."
"Maybe Wenger will be a little angry, maybe he will think this is a good phenomenon, and it will be unexpected if it is not taken seriously." Lineker said with a smile.
"In fact, many people want to know how Coach Fang Jue will answer similar questions, but unfortunately..." Lineker shook his head, "He refused to answer this question."
Fang Jue is not refusing to answer the question, he is refusing to be interviewed by "The Sun". This question is a special program organized by "The Sun". Fang Jue has a bad relationship with this media, so he is naturally unwilling to participate in it.
Fang Jue sat on the coach's bench, watching the game with his chin resting on his hands.
Aston Villa is quite well prepared for today's game, and it can be said that they are doing their best.
The goalkeeper is German national goalkeeper Enke.
Milner at left back, Davies and Senderos at center back and Cuellar at right back.
In midfield, Clement sits as a single midfielder, with Mane on the left and Deisler on the right.
On the front line are Bell, Shevchenko and Ronaldo.
Yes, the game has just begun, and Wenger has not noticed that Aston Villa is not a four-four-two lineup, but a four-three-three lineup.
Fang Jue knew that he insisted on sending Shevchenko to start, which was beyond many people's expectations.
He also hopes to gain something before Wenger and Arsenal react.
...
The sixth minute of the game.
Gareth Bale returns a pass to Mane, who crosses diagonally to the right.
Deisler got the ball down the right and the Aston Villa captain started his fine display.
Thirty-year-old Deisler is considered one of the best midfielders in football today.
He first used a change in speed to get away from Walcott.
He then pushed the ball away against Arsenal defender Clichy.
Ronaldo didn't stop the ball, but passed the football out!
Two over one!
Next, Deisler didn't give his former teammate Koscielny a chance to get close, and directly passed the football.
The goal was Shevchenko in the penalty area.
Fang Jue believes that his trust in Shevchenko will be rewarded.
He succeeded!
"Shevchenko...he leaps high...a header!!"
Shevchenko showed the nose and ability of a top shooter.
He is very accurate in judging where the football will land. He jumped high, and before Vermaelen, he turned his head, exerted strength, and swung in the air!
Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia reacted quickly enough.
However, with such a close-range header, and the speed of the ball is extremely fast, and the angle is tricky, he can't do anything.
I can only watch football enter the goal unwillingly...
Brothers, I'm sorry, I only have this chapter today. I have to get up early at four or five o'clock tomorrow if I have something to do. I can't stay up late tonight. More will be added tomorrow.
