Chapter 834 The Young People of Aston Villa

Liverpool's 2:7 defeat to Aston Villa in the away game caused widespread amazement in the English media.

Before the game, the general opinion was that facing the exhausted Aston Villa, Liverpool had a chance to draw or even win Aston Villa.

Of course, the most direct view is that maybe Liverpool will still lose, but no one thought that they would lose so badly.

The major media in England have played the titles of "Nightmare", "Disaster" and "Nightmare Night" to mourn the defeat of the Red Army Liverpool.

The headline of the "Metro" website is "Liverpool Nightmare Night!", saying that Liverpool lost 2:7 to Aston Villa in a bad and disastrous way.

The headline of the "Guardian" on its website is "Liverpool, what a shame, Aston Villa won 7:2!" After reporting and commenting on the game, the English media finally pointed out that in such a dense With a tight schedule and exhaustion, Astonville slaughtered Arsenal and Liverpool in four consecutive days:

Looking at the current posture, unless a miracle happens, no team can prevent Aston Villa from successfully defending the Premier League title.

The title of "The Times" is "Villa Park Stadium, Devil's Home Stadium 7:2!" The newspaper pointed out that Villa Park Stadium has become the most terrifying home stadium in the entire Premier League and even in Europe. Is it Arsenal or Liverpool, starting with five goals.

The headline of the "Daily Mail" used the title of "Liverpool's super gift package after Christmas" in a mocking way, saying that Liverpool's defense was almost undefended, and Aston Villa easily won 7:2 at home.

Zhang Chen read these newspapers with relish, and felt a little regretful at the same time. If the flight hadn't been canceled and had to transfer to the next flight, they would have been able to arrive in Birmingham two days in advance, and they would have been able to watch this magnificent match on the spot.

The 45-year-old Zhang Chen is a middle-level manager of the football school opened by Aston Villa in China. The task this time is to escort a group of outstanding students to Birmingham.

He glanced at the excited and chattering children, and smiled with relief.

These children are all good seedlings.

...

The staff of Aston Villa Club on the bus turned on the car TV.

The news is playing on TV:

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish was absent from the post-match press conference following yesterday's 2-7 defeat.

Since attending the press conference and accepting media questions is the duty of every Premier League coach before and after the game, Dalglish's move will probably be severely punished by the FA.

According to the official statement given by the Liverpool club, Dalglish did not attend the conference because the club bus departed ahead of schedule. This explanation obviously does not satisfy the FA.

After returning to Liverpool, Dalglish avoided his absence from the press conference.

However, Dalglish still took responsibility for the failure. He said in an interview: "This failure is my mistake, and I take all responsibility. I think it is meaningless to discuss the mistakes we made. Of course it is my fault. One of the worst games of my coaching career. We prepared a lot for this game and definitely didn't want this result."

Aston Villa coach Fang Jue accepted an interview on Villa's official website.

The head coach who just led the team to win the Club World Cup and led the team to slaughter Arsenal and Liverpool after returning said that he is proud of his players.

However, Fang Jue also specifically said, "It doesn't make much sense to discuss 6-0 or 7-2. For Aston Villa, the most important thing is to get three points."

"That's really cool, boss," said a boy in a golf cap.

"Hey, Zhang Yang, can you understand English?" A well-built boy sitting in the seat behind him asked in surprise.

"He knows nothing." A boy in the front row with a crew cut yelled, winking at Zhang Yang, "Zhang Yang, he can't even hear you if you're flattering the boss here."

"Yang Fan, shut up." Zhang Yang retorted, "I adore the boss from the bottom of my heart."

"cut!"

"Hahaha!"

The children burst into laughter and made a fuss.

...

"Okay, kids." Zhang Chen clapped his hands, "Stop making trouble."

"I'm going to the place where I live soon. Let me tell you what time."

"First of all, remember that you must abide by team discipline. Since everyone can be selected into the training camp, this may be the most important opportunity in your life. Everyone should cherish this opportunity. I don't want anyone to be sent back for not observing discipline. , miss this opportunity."

"The second point is to repeat the same old tune, the English issue, you will train with Aston Villa's youth echelon, and the language barrier must be passed."

"Also, try to communicate with other Aston Villa players as much as possible. In the next period of time, you are all teammates, so you are more familiar with the British football culture and atmosphere, and integrate into it."

"According to the arrangement, we will join Aston Villa's youth echelon training, and students who perform well may even have the opportunity to participate in the youth league. I hope everyone can hold their breath and seize this good opportunity."

"Finally, you can contact me if you have anything. Of course, there will be someone from the club in charge of you. If you have anything, you can directly contact Mr. Fliss."

"Okay, is there any more questions?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Can we see Coach Fang Jue?" Zhang Yang immediately raised his hand and asked.

"That's right, Director Zhang, will the boss meet us?"

"I promised my sister that I would ask for a signed photo of the boss."

"Quiet." Zhang Chen shouted, "The boss also cares about you, but you also know that it is the Premier League's Christmas devil schedule. After this busy period, I believe the boss will come to visit you."

...

Vera training base.

Head coach's office.

The general manager of the club, Byron, brought a group of subordinates to report to work.

"Shinji Kagawa's transfer is almost complete, and we are waiting for the transfer window to complete the final procedures and registration process."

"Well, very good, is there anything else?" Fang Jue asked.

"Boss, the selection team of the football school in China has arrived today." Taylor, the deputy director of the youth training department, said.

"Already here? Well, everything has been arranged."

"We have rented an apartment near the training base and it has been arranged."

"Huh?" Fang Jue thought for a while, "Rearrange and arrange the boarding players from the youth echelon to live with them."

Fang Jue thought for a while, "In this way, two people share a room, one player from the selection team, and one player from the echelon team."

"Understood, boss."

"Are there any good seedlings in this group of players?" Fang Jue asked.

"The feedback from the football school is that there are some good young men." Taylor said, "The boss has a good vision. Some of these players were discovered by you before."

Fang Jue is very concerned about the football schools in China. The school will send the training and game videos of the students to Aston Villa Club. Fang Jue will watch them when he has time.

Then, he called out the names of a few students and asked the school to focus on training them.

Some of the students selected by him have already performed well and won the recognition and praise of the coaches and teachers of the football school.

However, there are also those who are mediocre but are pointed out by Fang Jue.

Although the football school was very surprised, because they didn't see anything extraordinary about this player.

However, when the big boss spoke, they naturally had to follow suit.

Hey, then they noticed that there were a few students who had been named by Fang Jue, but the average performance before, slowly began to show their talents, and their performance began to become more and more outstanding.

Apart from being shocked, they could only lament that the boss is indeed a well-known eye in football.

...

Just arrived at the apartment.

Zhang Chen received the call.

"Okay, children, there is a new change." Zhang Chen clapped his hands, "The original accommodation allocation has been cancelled. I just received the news that the club will arrange for you to live with some players from Villa's youth echelon."

"An academy and a player from Villa's youth team sharing a room."

"what?"

"No way."

"I can't understand English."

"Director Zhang, would you like to have a reaction with the higher-ups? Let's live together by ourselves and know each other well." Someone shouted.

"Shut up, this arrangement is good for you. Living with players from Villa's youth echelon will help you learn English quickly, and it will help you integrate as soon as possible."

"Director Zhang..."

"Stop talking, it's the boss's decision."

"Boss, what do you mean by Zhang Zhi?"

"That's right, it's the decision of the big boss." Zhang Chen said happily. He was very excited by the news. The boss personally issued the order, which showed that the boss cared about these children.

"What does this mean? It means that the boss really cares about everyone and pays attention to everyone." Zhang Chen said with a serious expression, "Eat a steamed bun to fight for breath, and use your actual actions and performances to tell Villa's new teammates that you are not bad, and you are also very good." Excellent, this is also to give the boss confidence!"

"Understood!" The boys stopped making noise and shouted seriously.

...

"Oh, hell, why did you separate the two of us." Jack Grealish complained.

As he said that, he winked at a big guy, "Kevin, I won't be able to sleep at night without you."

"I'll beat you up so you can fall asleep." Kevin Lee said loudly.

"Hahahaha!" The other players in Aston Villa's U19 echelon laughed.

They have just been notified by coach George Smith that the echelon boarding players need to re-arrange their rooms, and they will live one-on-one with the Chinese selection team players from China's Villa Football School.

This naturally caused complaints and dissatisfaction among these young Aston Villa players.

The main reason is that everyone is used to roommates, and they are definitely unwilling to separate suddenly.

Moreover, the new roommate is a foreigner with a language barrier and different habits, which is a lot of inconvenience.

However, the club's notification arrangement has been issued, and everyone can only accept it.

On the contrary, the atmosphere has improved a lot after the little guy Grealish made such a fuss.

Grealish, who is only 16 years old this year, is the latest talent trained by Aston Villa's youth training.

This can be seen from the fact that he was promoted to the U19 echelon when he was only sixteen years old, and it is reported that the head coach of the U23 echelon, Mr. Andy Kafir, appreciates Glarish and is seriously considering Glarish. Promoted to the U23 echelon.

As for Kevin Lee, this single-minded guy, when he first came to the team, was an amateur player. I don't know why the big boss Fang Jue took a fancy to this kid and arranged for the team to sign him.

However, what everyone admires is that this big man works very hard, to be exact, he is the one who works the hardest in the echelon.

The first one to come to the training ground every day, and the last one to leave.

George Smith, the coach of the U19 echelon, also changed his view of this big man. People who work hard are always appreciated and respected.

After arranging Kevin Lee to try various positions from central defender to forward, the big man's position was fixed at the midfielder position.

Although it cannot be said that he has the ability to gain a foothold in the U19 echelon, the progress is very obvious.

George Smith often lamented that Fang Jue's vision of seeing people was really powerful.

In addition, Fang Jue said that this guy was nineteen years old, but in fact he was only seventeen when he first met Fang Jue.

This is because Fang Jue deliberately lied about his age because he was afraid that he would not take him in.

This also caused a lot of ridicule from everyone, who lied about their age and reported it too young, but this stupid big guy actually said it too old.

The reputation of the stupid big man spread like wildfire.

However, after more than a year, everyone's impression of Kevin Lee has greatly changed. No one will laugh at him anymore, and the nickname of "silly big man" has also become "big man".

You can work less hard, but no one will look down on someone who works very hard.

...

The apartments rented by Aston Villa for young players.

Zhang Yang is holding a book and reading it hard.

This is "Three Hundred Days of Spoken English".

At this time, the door was pushed open.

A short young man with freckles on his face.

"Hi, hello." Zhang Yang took the initiative to greet.

"Hi, my name is Jack Dalglish, what's your name? Did you really come so far from China? What delicious food did you bring? I heard that Chinese food is simply amazing." Grealish Looking at Zhang Yang curiously, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, he chattered.

"Uh!" Zhang Yang was depressed, this guy said such a long paragraph, he couldn't understand.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Zhang Yang remembers his father's advice when he came, take the initiative and build a good relationship with his teammates.

He put down his book, took out his schoolbag, and poured out the contents of the schoolbag with a clatter.

A table of snacks.

Then, after thinking about it, he picked out a bagged snack and handed it over, "Try it, it's delicious."

"What is this?" Grealish asked in surprise.

Zhang Yang understood this sentence, and said happily, "Latiao! Weilong Latiao! Delicious!"

Grealish tore open the package, ate one, and then saw the young man blushing, and almost jumped up, "Water! Oh, hell! Water!"

In another room, Yang Fan was using his mobile phone to send text messages to his family.

The door was knocked open with a bang, and then, when he turned his head, he saw a bald and sturdy man with a fierce face standing at the door.

Yang Fan was stunned, his first reaction was: robbery? Burglary? How bad is Birmingham law and order? How to do?
