Aston Villa defeated the Etihad Stadium.

In the English media, some people who have long been worried about Aston Villa's hegemony over the Premier League (envy, envy and hate) cheered and celebrated.

Fang Jue's old friend Tony Parker posted a photo of himself toasting on his social account with the text: Cheers to Manchester City.

Fang Jue mocked this mercilessly. In some people's words, his mouth was spraying poison:

Yes, Aston Villa finally lost again after more than a year, my God, it's not easy, I don't celebrate this time, I don't know when the next time will be.

The "Birmingham Evening News" used a photo of their handsome head coach on the entire front page, accompanied by the words Fang Jue said.

Originally, losing should be very demoralizing and frustrating.

However, this issue of the "Birmingham Evening News" was almost sold out quickly.

Aston Villa players also posted photos of them holding the newspaper on their personal social accounts.

This even caused a wave of trends in Birmingham, and many fans posted photos of them holding newspapers on their personal social accounts.

The Times columnist Duncan Castur commented in his column:

If Manchester City and the rest of the Premier League thought this defeat would be a shock and negative emotional impact on Aston Villa, look at what happened in Birmingham and they will know they are wrong.

...

Three days later, the fifth round of Group B of the UEFA Champions League group stage.

Aston Villa ushered in at home the defending Ligue 1 champion Montpellier, which has only scored one draw in the four rounds of the group stage and ranks last in the group.

"We're still alive, and we still have a chance to perform miracles."

Before the game, Montpellier coach René Girard said so.

Yes, he was right, Montpellier still has a chance to qualify for the group stage.

At present, Montpellier is 5 points behind the second place Olympiacos. There are still two rounds in the group stage. They really have a chance to come back. It is quite miraculous that they only scored one point in the four rounds of the group stage and are still alive. matter.

Although Girard expressed confidence in leading the team to create miracles.

However, the French media don't see it that way, they think Girard's idea is too crazy.

"He should be grateful to Aston Villa, Aston Villa's thriving gave Girard the opportunity to daydream." - "L'Equipe".

René Girard does not think he is daydreaming. He admits that it is difficult to bottom out and come back to life, but it is not impossible.

"Aston Villa has locked in the first place in the group ahead of time, and their focus is not on the Champions League."

"There is a high probability that Villa will not play too many main players today, this is our chance." Girard was boosting the morale of the team, "We won Aston Villa, and we will have a direct confrontation with Schalke 04 in the last round. "

Some players were moved by the words of the head coach and boosted their morale, while some players felt that the coach was too wishful thinking.

Montpellier is going to stage an absolute reversal, the only way to count points is:

Today Aston Villa "let the water go", Montpellier won; at the same time Schalke 04 beat Olympiacos.

Then in the last round, Montpellier got rid of Schalke at home, and at the same time counted on Aston Villa not to release water, and got rid of Olympiacos away.

If the outside world guides Girard's thinking, I am afraid there will be an uproar. The most important thing about this kind of thinking is not whether Montpellier can win the game itself, but "Why do Villa listen to you? You make me soft." I will be soft, but you will be hard if you let me be hard? '

...

In this game against Montpellier, Fang Jue did rotate a lot of main players.

Because of the 13th round of the Premier League on the weekend, Aston Villa will usher in another tough battle:

They will sit at home at St Andrews Stadium against good friends Arsenal.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Lewandowski are both on the bench.

Vardy and Shinji Kagawa started.

Pogba also got the start.

Danny Rose and Thornton also replaced Milner and Kyle Walker.

Greek defender Papastathopoulos also won the Champions League for the first time this season, partnering with Italian veteran Nesta.

Seeing that Aston Villa has almost rotated more than half of the main players, Girard is very happy.

He felt that his prediction was correct, and Montpellier's opportunity came.

However, at the end of the first half, Montpellier was in a state of frustration.

Despite the rotation and more than half of the substitute players, Aston Villa still firmly controlled the game.

Not long after the start of the first half, Pogba took a long shot to help Aston Villa take the lead in the score.

Subsequently, Aston Villa seized the opportunity of Montpellier's massive pressure and played a beautiful counterattack. Pogba assisted Vardy to score a goal.

Two to zero.

The French commentator who explained the game even reluctantly "announced" Montpellier's exit in advance.

Then, the French commentator began to praise Pogba hard. Anyway, Pogba is French, and this black French guy performed quite well, so he can still boast.

In the second half of the game, Thornton made a cross from the side, and Papastathopoulos, who was involved in the attack, scored a header and succeeded, rewriting the score to 3-0.

Papastathopoulos looked very excited. He clenched his fists and roared to celebrate the goal.

...

Fang Jue applauded from the sidelines.

In his mind, he was thinking about Papastathopoulos.

This season Aston Villa's main central defender combination is Senderos and Thiago Silva.

Last season, the team's main central defender Papastathopoulos was reduced to a substitute, and even his starting position was behind the experienced veteran Nesta.

Considering that Senderos is 27 years old and Thiago Silva is 28 years old, this is the golden age of a central defender.

At least in the next few years, Aston Villa's main central defender configuration will be Senderos and Thiago Silva.

This made Papastathopoulos worried about his future at Aston Villa.

Papastathopoulos’ agent has contacted Fang Jue. He wants to confirm whether his client has a future in Aston Villa. If he cannot get more playing opportunities, he hopes that the club can release Papa Stathopoulos leaves.

Fang Jue was not angry about Papastathopoulos' intention to transfer, and he said that he would consider it carefully.

The Greek defender is very diligent, and his training and game attitude are worthy of recognition.

Papastathopoulos played the main central defender for a season, and even after Senderos was injured last season, the Greek led Siren Clarke, Nathan Baker and Strowman, who played as a central defender, to survive had a hard time.

Papastathopoulos does not make trouble, is honest and obedient, and has sweated and made contributions to Aston Villa.

Even if such a player wants to transfer and leave, Fang Jue's attitude will be much better.

What Fang Jue is thinking now is whether to let Papastathopoulos go?

If you don't let people go, the Greeks will not be able to play the main force, and they will be resentful after a long time. Even if there is no trouble, it is not a good thing to have such a depressed and emotional player in the locker room.

If Papastathopoulos is allowed to leave, how should the position of the central defender be adjusted? Should Nesta and Ciron Clarke, the older and the younger, stand by on the bench, or introduce another player in the winter transfer market? Backup guard?

It is reasonable to say that there are two main central defenders, Senderos and Thiago Silva, an experienced veteran Nesta on the bench, and a young defender produced by the youth training. This configuration is fine.

However, after experiencing the lack of personnel at the central defender position last season, Fang Jue now has a fear of shortage of central defenders.

The position of central defender is too special. There are gaps in other positions. Some jack-of-all-trades players can come to fill the position, but the position of central defender is not suitable.

Letting go of Papastathopoulos, it is not easy to find a suitable replacement in the winter transfer market.

He has to think carefully.

...

In the end, the score of the game was three to zero.

Aston Villa, dominated by substitute players, beat Montpellier 3-0 at home.

The French media lamented that the defending champion of Ligue 1 was easily defeated by Aston Villa's "second team", which is really shameful.

The English media who were clamoring for Aston Villa's loss to Manchester City also shut up.

Aston Villa is too strong, and the bench lineup can easily win the Champions League without breaking a sweat.

Those who were going to watch Aston Villa's jokes and think that Aston Villa, which had just experienced their first league defeat, would be in turmoil, were disappointed.

One of the representatives is Tony Parker. There are rumors that this gentleman smashed his TV in anger when he saw Aston Villa leading Montpellier 2-0 at halftime.

In another match in Group B, Schalke 04 narrowly beat Olympiacos 1-0 at home with a goal from Austrian left-back Fuchs.

This victory also saved Schalke 04.

After the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, in Group B:

Aston Villa won five games and accumulated 15 points, ranking first;

Schalke 04 ranked second with 7 points after two wins and one tie;

Olympiacos ranked third with 6 points from two wins and three losses;

The Montpellier team has one draw and four losses with one point, and the points are at the bottom.

After the results of the group draw came out, Montpellier, the defending champion of Ligue 1, which was considered to be the dark horse team in this group, unexpectedly scored only one point in five games, and was at the bottom of the group. Not only was the group eliminated, but even the third place Did not qualify for the top 32 of the UEFA Europa League, which really surprised many people.

You know, last season, Montpellier overwhelmed the veteran Ligue 1 giants Lyon, Marseille and the newly promoted local tycoon Paris Saint-Germain to win the championship.

...

Four days later.

St Andrews Stadium.

In the thirteenth round of the Premier League, Aston Villa played against Arsenal at home.

Fang Jue shook hands with Wenger before the game, and the two chatted for a while.

"I heard you sent a case of wine to Mr. Ferguson?" Wenger asked suddenly.

This is Wenger, and he speaks so elegantly. If Ferguson mentioned Wenger, the Jazz would most likely say 'that Frenchman'. If the old Scottish man was in a bad mood, he would add the epithet 'that failed Frenchman' .

"Ah, yes." Fang Jue nodded.

"Why didn't I?" asked the professor.

"You don't usually like this." Fang Jue said, seeing Wenger's expression, he couldn't continue.

The professor's eyes seem to be able to speak: whether I like wine or not, whether I accept it or not, is different from whether you give me a present or not.

"No problem." Fang Jue said with an embarrassed smile, "Moutai, Wuliangye, Fenjiu, Daqu, these are all famous Chinese wines, let me tell you, professor, each has its own flavor, whichever you like, I will give you what."

"I want Moutai."

...

In this game against Arsenal, Fang Jue played the strongest card he can currently play.

The goalkeeper is Ter Stegen.

The central defender is Thiago Silva and Senderos' partner.

James Milner at left back and Kyle Walker at right back.

The midfielders are Clement, Modric, Shinji Kagawa and Hamei.

Up front are Ibrahimovic and Lewandowski.

Before the game started, the live radio announced the names of the away team Arsenal's players.

When Abanglahor's name was read, all the Aston Villa fans at St. Andrews Stadium stood up and applauded.

Aston Villa fans didn't have time to send him off when Abanglaho moved on.

This time Abanglaho came to St. Andrews Stadium wearing Arsenal's jersey. Aston Villa fans thanked this player for his contribution to Aston Villa over the past ten years in this way. This is welcome. My own children who married far away come home as guests.

Abang Lahuo had tears in his eyes, and he was also extremely moved.

If there is any regret, it is that after all, this is not Aston Villa's real home stadium, Villa Park Stadium.

Fang Jue sat on the coach seat.

He stared at Arsenal's starting players, comparing them with his own predicted Arsenal's starting lineup, thinking about whether there were any problems with the tactics he had arranged, and whether there were any details that needed improvement and attention.

Fang Jue paid special attention to this game, and he gave the team an order to win.

For a long time, Aston Villa has maintained a complete victory against Arsenal, and there have been brutal slaughters on several occasions.

After Aston Villa lost to Manchester City in the last round of the league, there was a saying on the Internet:

Observe whether Aston Villa's strength has declined.

See if Aston Villa's dominance in the Premier League has been weakened.

It's not about when Aston Villa lose occasionally.

It is to see how they perform against their old friend Arsenal.

Someone even rated Aston Villa's strength in the Arsenal version on the Internet:

Losing to Arsenal - the collapse of the dominance, the elegy of the dynasty.

The draw with Arsenal-the dynasty is unstable, and the omen is already there.

Win Arsenal by one goal - the king of success.

Beat Arsenal by two goals or three goals - the dynasty is solid and thriving.

Win Arsenal by more than three goals - Sunrise East, Jiangshan Bandai.

Of course, Fang Jue's order to win has nothing to do with these online remarks.

Not to mention that he is ignorant of these remarks on the Internet, he has great respect and affection for Professor Wenger and Arsenal, his opponent.

If his Aston Villa does not win this game, it will be two rounds without victory!

Just lost a game, the media exclaimed, shocked, noisy.

I can't wait to say that Aston Villa is about to fail, and it has started to go downhill, and it is downhill on a slide.

If they fail to win against Arsenal, if they fail to win two rounds, some media will act as if Aston Villa is going to die, the sky is falling, and the end of the world is coming.

Aston Villa's three or four years of dominance over the Premier League has caused a huge backlash. To use the word "enemies all over the world" may... not be an exaggeration at all.

In order to protect the peace of the earth, and to avoid overwhelming negative energy information in the media, Aston Villa must win.

Fang Jue glanced at the professor sitting in the coach's bench, staring at the field, who seemed to be in a daze.

Fang Jue's eyes are sincere and eager:

The stability of the dynasty's hegemony is all due to this respected old man-you.
