The Glory of the Godfather

Kaka joining Aston Villa has aroused heated discussions in the global media.

The Brazilian superstar joined Aston Villa freely. AC Milan and Kaka broke up peacefully at the end of June.

When last season was interrupted, AC Milan, with a poor record, was likely to miss the Champions League for the first time in recent years.

Milan announced that if Milan misses the European competition next season, all players will have a 20% salary cut, including Kaka.

Kaka has chosen to cut his salary to join Milan. Now his salary is 4.5 million euros. If the salary is reduced by 20%, his annual salary will be 3.6 million.

Considering Kaka's huge commercial value and Kaka's ability to attract a lot of sponsorship, such a salary is too meager for an influential player like Kaka.

According to what the media later said, maybe Kaka has considered continuing to cut his salary and is willing to stay in Milan, but the problem is that Kaka is not alone, he has his team, he has his family, especially Kaka's father is rumored Oppose it vigorously.

In the end, AC Milan missed the UEFA Champions League in the new season, and Kaka's agency team announced that it had triggered the clause of termination without the Champions League, directly avoiding the possibility of staying in Milan and playing football with a lower salary.

Subsequently, Kaka's agency team has been seeking to operate Kaka to play in Orlando, and the American Major League offered an annual salary of 6.5 million euros.

In fact, Kaka has been hesitating. He hesitated to leave Europe at the age of 32 and go to the United States to play football.

At this time, Fang Jue's invitation, and finally bringing Ronaldinho and Ronaldo to lobby, finally made Kaka decide to come to Aston Villa.

Ronaldinho and Ronnie told me that Villa is a magical team. Mr. Fang Jue seems to have magic. I will not regret coming to Villa. I am looking forward to it. Card Ka said at his Aston Villa debut.

Aston Villa held a grand welcome ceremony for the joining of the former World Footballer of the Year. About 20,000 fans came to the new Villa Park Stadium to welcome Kaka to join.

The enthusiasm of the fans also made the Aston Villa executives very proud.

In addition to the consideration of competitive factors, Kaka's own huge influence and the economic benefits that this huge influence can bring are also very important to the club.

As soon as Kaka's No. 22 jersey went on the market, fans rushed to buy it.

On the Internet, Kaka's Aston Villa jersey sales inventory was also snapped up.

The name of the last player who caused such a huge response after joining Villa was Ronaldinho, and the last two were Beckham and Ronaldo.

...

After playing the third round of the Premier League, it is a two-week international match day.

Aston Villa can now be said to be the top international player in the Premier League, and the entire first team has almost been recruited by various national teams.

Fang Jue was even forced to transfer more than 20 players from the reserve team and the youth team before he could barely make up for training in the first team.

The performance of Zhang Yang, Yang Fan and Liu Changan who played in the youth team attracted Fang Jue's special attention.

Zhang Yang performed well in the youth team and has grown into the absolute main force of the U19 youth team. The connection between him and Glarish is one of the youth team's offensive weapons.

Yang Fan and Liu Changan are getting closer and closer to the main players of the youth team.

What surprised Fang Jue the most was Kevin Lee, the big man who recommended himself to join Aston Villa, and now he has performed quite well in the youth team. An important rotation player for the Villa U19 youth team.

This is something even Fang Jue admired. You must know that this kid has never received any professional football training before.

Seeing this kid sweeping and intercepting in the midfield like a humanoid tank, Fang Jue couldn't help but tsk-tsk. If this stature and stamina can continue to improve at this rate, the future can be expected.

On September 13, 2014, in the fourth round of the Premier League, Aston Villa faced Liverpool at Anfield. This game was also one of the two focus games of this round of the Premier League.

Another focus battle is between Arsenal and Manchester City.

...

Fifteen minutes into the game at Anfield.

Lewandowski! He received a through ball from Sanchez and successfully shot offside!

One to zero! Aston Villa lead away!

Too sharp, this is Aston Villa's counterattack speed!

After the start of the game, Liverpool frequently put pressure on Aston Villa's goal amidst the cheers of the home fans. It can be said that the offensive was fierce for a while, but they still failed to gain anything. On the contrary, Aston Villa's This time the counterattack succeeded in a sneak attack.

Liverpool coach Rodgers frowned. The team took the initiative at the beginning, but lost the ball because of a counterattack by the opponent. This was a blow to morale.

He walked to the sidelines, shouted the name of the team captain Steven Gerrard, and signaled the team to stabilize their position, not to be affected by this conceded goal, and continue to attack.

That's right, Rodgers' tactic today is offense. Defense is not Liverpool's strong point. He wants to compete with Aston Villa on offense.

The game continues.

Rodgers has noticed a change at Aston Villa.

After leading 1-0, Aston Villa did not continue to play defensive counterattack tactics. This somewhat relieved Rogers. After all, Aston Villa's defense is very good. If Aston Villa concentrates on defensive counterattack If not, Liverpool will be very uncomfortable.

However, while he was relieved, Rogers had new troubles.

Aston Villa are now starting to dominate possession on the pitch.

The offensive presence of Mane, Modric, Pogba, De Bruyne, and Sanchez makes Aston Villa's midfielder highly technical.

Yes, Clement was absent from today's game due to injury, and Fang Jue chose the double midfielder combination of Modric and Pogba.

Then there is Mane on the left, De Bruyne on the right, Sanchez in the center, and Lewandowski in the front.

...

As long as football is controlled at the feet of Aston Villa, they will take their time and deal with the Liverpool people.

It’s not that Liverpool’s players haven’t tried to press, but, obviously, Aston Villa has long been prepared for the press, so they are always passing the ball and will not let the football stay at the feet of a certain player for too long Long.

The Liverpool people ran with the football, but they were a little frustrated and found that it was useless work, and there was nothing to gain except physical exertion.

Hey, Aston Villa played very much like Barcelona's style today. Lineker said, Is this a new tactic created by Fang Jue for Aston Villa?

Sanchez, De Bruyne, these two players have exquisite skills. This is the guarantee for Aston Villa to be able to play pass control, especially Sanchez, who is very familiar with pass control tactics. John Mortensen said.

Rogers gave the players instructions again, don't rush, don't panic, hold your ground, and don't fight blindly, pay attention to science and save energy.

This sentence seems to be true.

However, in fact, it is basically empty talk, and the players have no idea how to deal with it.

Rodgers also has a big head on the sidelines.

It can be said that when Aston Villa is attacking, all Liverpool can do is to defend desperately, and then hope that the opponent's pass error, but this situation rarely occurs, and the result is that football is Aston Villa are firmly in control, and their attack can always get a shot.

In this case, Liverpool's players were both impatient and helpless.

Under this mood, the anger of the Liverpool players also slowly rose, and the fouls on the field became more and more serious, and the referee Dean's whistle sounded frequently.

Thirty-five minutes into the game, Liverpool had already received four yellow cards.

Only Kyle Walker received a yellow card for Aston Villa.

...

In the end, Rodgers made an adjustment. He arranged for Liverpool's midfielders to focus on pressing Modric.

Modric is Aston Villa's playmaker, as long as he doesn't work well here, Aston Villa's offense will be contained.

This is the 41st minute of the game, Gerrard and Henderson pressed Modric together.

Modric pulls the ball around and passes it to Pogba.

Pogba was immediately pressed by Lallana.

The Frenchman knocked the football back to Thiago Silva.

Silva then passes the ball to Modric.

As soon as Modric got the ball, Coutinho pounced on him. He pulled the ball and turned around, making a gesture to pass the ball, but he broke through diagonally. Henderson pounced on it, and Modric made another gesture to pass the ball.

Henderson ignored it.

However, Modric really passed the ball this time.

It was Pogba who caught the ball.

When Pogba stopped the ball, he took advantage of the trend and avoided Lallana who was grabbing.

Then he also quickly sent the football out.

The person who received the football this time was Mane.

Mane dribbled the ball on the left side and sprinted at high speed. At the same time, Aston Villa's midfielders, who were passing back and forth slowly and backwards just now, were like track and field athletes who heard the starting gun, sprinting towards the goal. Liverpool's half.

Liverpool coach Rodgers was shocked!

He immediately realized the crisis.

Mane dribbled the ball along the wing at high speed. After attracting the attention of several Liverpool defenders, he knocked the ball to Sanchez who came to meet him.

Sanchez pulled the ball and turned around, dribbled the ball horizontally, and made a wall-hitting cooperation with De Bruyne. After receiving the football again, he made a gesture to speed up into the penalty area, but buckled the football back, and then suddenly tiptoed!

...

Pick a pass!

Offside! The Liverpool players immediately raised their hands.

Lewandowski, who was in an offside position, did not run at all. Instead, he walked slowly towards his own half. The smart Lewandowski did not participate in this attack.

Then people saw that De Bruyne succeeded in anti-offside. He received a pass from Sanchez, adjusted slightly, faced the attacking Liverpool goalkeeper Mignolet, and directly crossed the middle!

At this time, Lewandowski suddenly turned and ran to the door.

De Bruyne's football passed.

Lewandowski held off Sakho, who was in a hurry to fill in, turned half-turned and volleyed the football into the net.

Goooooooooaaaaaal!

Lewandowski! Lewandowski! Robert Lewandowski, he scored twice!!! John Mortensen shouted, It's so beautiful, Astonville La's attack was so beautiful, their passing and cutting cooperated smoothly, 2-0, De Bruyne assisted Lewandowski to score.

Forty-two minutes into the game, Aston Villa, who are playing away at Anfield, are already two goals ahead of Liverpool!

The first goal, Sanchez provided an assist for Lewandowski, this time it was Sanchez's exquisite pass to instigate the attack, De Bruyne assisted Lewandowski, the Chilean joined Aston Villa After that, we played better game after game.

Fang Jue applauded from the sidelines. He was satisfied with Lewandowski's twice and even more satisfied with Sanchez's outstanding performance.

The Chilean is not tall, but he is high-spirited and always spares no effort to run, move, catch and pass the ball on the field.

And because of his short stature, Sanchez has a low center of gravity, has the typical superb foot skills of South American players, fast speed, strong ball control and breakthrough ability, and excellent individual combat skills. Such a player has the ability to change by himself Players with the ability to match results.

What satisfies Fang Jue most is that Sanchez and Mane, De Bruyne, Lewandowski in front, and Modric or Pogba in the back are all in harmony. The player has just joined Aston Villa, but it can be said that he is almost seamlessly connected with the team, which is so commendable.

Rodgers saw his team conceded another goal, and his face became ugly. The opponent was Aston Villa. Before the half-time game was over, they were two goals behind Aston Villa. In this case, Liverpool wanted to One can imagine the difficulty of overturning.

Zero to two!

Although the first half of the game is not over yet, Rogers already has a bad feeling in his heart, and his team may be more or less bad in this game.

Of course, it is not uncommon for Liverpool to lose to Aston Villa. Aston Villa is currently the well-deserved overlord of the Premier League. Although the Premier League title was won by Manchester City last season, in everyone's eyes, The shadow of Aston Villa, which has won four consecutive Premier League titles before, is still hanging over the giants. Unless Aston Villa cannot regain lost ground this season, otherwise, Aston Villa’s deterrent to other teams in the Premier League And the 'bullying' energy is still there, even more direct and brutal.

Therefore, it is not uncommon for Liverpool to lose to Aston Villa. However, the problem is that Liverpool rose last season and ranked third in the Premier League, only three points behind Aston Villa. In this case, losing to Aston Villa at Anfield, or even falling behind by two goals before halftime, is more eye-catching, and Rogers feels unacceptable: no face!
