We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 234: The fourth captain + Manchester United's abandoned player = Real Madrid-style Villa

"Sky Sports": "On Villa Street, He Tianqi is the father! Boxing King He Tianqi strikes again, subduing Carew and Vardy with one move, evoking the memory of Barton's death!"

The Times: "A serious dressing room incident occurred at Aston Villa, two players fought each other, and He Tianqi responded with violence!"

"Echo": "Villa officially announced the Carew and Vardy incident. Most fans believe that players of Vardy's quality lower the quality of the team!"

Manchester Evening News: "Vardy has a long history of bad deeds. It is a shame for such a player to become a professional player!"

Related news became a hot topic overnight.

However, the focus shifted from praising He Tianqi at the beginning to attacking Vardy.

For a time, some Villa fans actually asked the team to fire Vardy.

But in fact, Vardy's apology letter was delivered to the office at four in the morning.

I just don’t know whether Vardy’s four o’clock is Kobe’s four o’clock or Harden’s four o’clock.

In fact, if you look carefully at the media that spoke out, it is not difficult to see their intention.

Liverpool and Manchester United are clearly interested in Vardy.

The former believes he can be the bankrupt version of Valencia.

The latter thinks he has the style of a three-pointer Irving.

Both teams have a tradition of building this type of forward.

Unfortunately, the next day, there was no apology letter from Kalu.

At noon, Carew transferred to the Premier League team West Ham United for a bargain price of one million euros.

Carew was interviewed and said it was a good thing that he went to a higher level league.

But the reporter from Global View reminded him.

He was a starter at Championship Villa, but after going to West Ham United, he might not play more than three or five games a season.

At 30 years old, it is possible for Carew to play at a lower level for another three or four years if he maintains a suitable number of appearances.

But if he sits on the bench for a whole year, he should probably just retire.

The salaries for both are pretty much the same.

I've been short of money for three years.

To be honest, Carew's departure scared Vardy a bit.

He took the initiative to request to read his apology letter in front of the whole team in the afternoon.

He Tianqi could refuse animal performances, but he could not refuse the animals' insistence on performing.

The whole team was shocked once again by Vardy's emotional and tearful apology.

At the end of the day, He Tianqi found Vardy and to a certain extent affirmed his spirit of courage to fight back.

He also said that if his fist was directed at an outsider, he should have been praised in front of the whole team.

Vardy understood.

The Knights of Apocalypse have gained another powerful general.

Amateur Knight——Vardy!

Villa then arranged three warm-up matches.

People noticed that De Bruyne wore the captain's armband in one game.

This is because He Tianqi reorganized the four captains in the team.

Captain Petrov.

He has only played for Villa for three years, but he is very popular both in the team and among the fans, and is also one of the team captains.

Second captain Maldini.

The legendary player has arrived, and he is here to keep the team in good stead, so it is only natural to give him a vice-captain, but it should not be so extreme that he overshadows the team.

The third captain is Abanglaho.

The appointment was supported by Villa fans.

Because he is a local youth training star.

This year, another play about left-behind children, "Loyalty", was staged.

Comparable to Gerrard of Liverpool and De Rossi of Rome.

The fourth captain is De Bruyne, who is a little too young.

Motta is actually more qualified, but Abanglaho is third, so it's impossible for Motta to be behind him?
As for De Bruyne, who He Tianqi wanted to arrange in front of him, wouldn’t that mean there would be no place for him?

And Motta is not interested in this kind of thing.

What hasn't he experienced at Barcelona?
I don’t care about it anymore!

The Villa team has no objection to this, and it is justified for the rich man to be sunny.

The fans had no objections because it was well known that He Tianqi liked to appoint young captains.

Modric during his time at Palermo and Real Madrid is an example.

However, compared to Modric, De Bruyne has a much stronger captain temperament.

In one word: match!

Young Inzaghi had just followed He Tianqi and didn't understand He Tianqi's methods.

For people like Guardiola and Simeone, as soon as they see the captain's appointment, they basically know the future course of these four players.

Petrov will definitely take a backseat and won't get much playing time.

Maldini is too old and obviously cannot be a permanent main player.

So the captain's armband will appear on Abanglaho most of the time...in the first half of the season.

This is not a good thing.

This means that He Tianqi is inspecting Abanglaho.

If Abanglao fails to shoulder the responsibilities given by He Tianqi and performs worse than his competitors, He Tianqi will not hesitate to keep him on the bench or replace him frequently.

This will allow the true captain to gradually wear the armband for a long time and gain recognition.

The true core of Villa's midfield is beginning to emerge - De Bruyne!
The fourth captain + Manchester United’s abandoned player, Real Madrid fans ask you if you are familiar with him!

Just ask who can break this offensive line!
Speaking of which, after He Tianqi left the team this summer, Simeone also left Real Madrid.

But he was subsequently labeled a traitor by Real Madrid fans.

Because Simeone turned around and joined Real Madrid's city rival Atletico Madrid and became the head coach of Atletico Madrid.

He is the head coach and has one more person.

……

August 2nd, Villa's last friendly match before the start of the new season.

Motta is injured.

Barcelona fans occupied the comment sections of major broadcasts at the time.

"Hahaha! After watching three Villa games, I finally got what I wanted!"

"Let this traitor surrender to He Tianqi! Now he is getting his comeuppance!"

"I've already said that he is a super fragile person. Does He Tianqi really think he got lucky?"

"Motta has been wearing glass for years. He was an iron man in Palermo that year. He was really unlucky. But if you walk on the road often, you will get your shoes wet. He Tianqi is not so lucky this time!"

"Those who are praising Barcelona for letting the world's best defensive midfielder go, open your eyes and see clearly, this guy is the world's best glass man!"

"One word, cool!"

Even Motta himself felt that this time he might fail.

A glass man of twenty-seven is basically equivalent to being in his thirties.

Is it possible that he will retire this year or next year due to injuries?
Fortunately, He Tianqi told Mota that the old Chinese doctor he found for him was already on the plane.

Motta felt relieved at once.

Yup!

When he was in Palermo, he was initially treated by an old Chinese doctor.

But later on, he forgot about this matter as he played better and better. After Barcelona became ineffective again, he was distracted by the conspiracy of regime change brewing within the team.

Now that I think about it, it must be the mysterious power from the East that changed everything.

as predicted.

After the match, Motta's injury was not serious.

It will be cured in half a month.

To do this, He Tianqi consumed a [Serious Injury Recovery Card].

Within the next year, Motta will change his last name to "Iron".

However, in the short term, Motta's absence will be very unfavorable for Villa's next few games.

If we fail to get off to a good start in the new season, it will have a huge impact on morale.

However, Villa really failed to get off to a good start.

August 8th, the first round of the Championship.

Villa lost 1-3 to Newcastle United at home.

After the game, the camera was focused on He Tianqi and the bad boy Barton who plays for Newcastle United.

But Patton was very honest and didn't dare to look at He Tianqi the whole time, as if they were the ones who lost.

After all, judging from the news that broke a few days ago that He Tianqi subdued Kalu with one move, Patton was sure that He Tianqi was stronger.

This is really unacceptable.

For a time, Villa was flooded with negative reviews from the outside world.

So it seems that you, He Tianqi, are not capable of doing this either!

Awesome!

How amazing would you be without those superstars of Real Madrid?
Some impatient media began to add insult to injury.

As for England's Fleet Street media, everyone knows that traffic is king and entertainment is everything.

I may make a promise to you today, but go back on my word tomorrow.

In contrast, the media in Italy and Spain were much more reserved.

They repeatedly emphasized that they should give He Tianqi some more time.

No matter how great a head coach is, he will not play on the field himself, and it takes time for players to understand the head coach's intentions.

The BBC even photoshopped the sky behind He Tianqi into a yellow-gray color, which is their standard filter when reporting news related to China.

The title is "Chinese striker is not strong enough, the 30-year-old veteran scored! Heskey scored the only goal of the game for Aston Villa!"

It was as if Dong Fangzhuo started this game.

The starting two forwards in this game are Heskey and Abang Laho!

But in fact, this Newcastle United is not an ordinary team.

They were just relegated from the Premier League and have the same prince status as Villa.

They also retained most of the players and did not have the exaggerated team changes like Villa did.

It's normal that Villa can't win.

The team includes former Chelsea winger Duff, Alan Smith who broke his leg at Manchester United, bad boy Barton, Foxes boxer Danny Simpson, future England international Andy Carroll, Dutch supercar Van Aanholt, and future Dutch goalkeeper Tim Kroos. It is a gathering of many famous players.

Without considering the growth potential, it is really no worse than Villa's current lineup.

And Vera also gave up one of its strongest fighters.

If nothing unexpected happens, Newcastle United will become the Championship champion this season with an overwhelming lead in points.

So this is not a casual match.

But it’s a... preview match for the English Championship!

Villa still has plenty of time to narrow the gap in strength between the two.

[Ding! The new season has started, the player panel is open, you can view the player's related levels]

[System updated to version 3.0, players’ skills can be upgraded through proficiency]

[It is detected that there are players in the team who meet the "Team Characteristics: Crossing Expert", please select the player]

[It is detected that there is a player in the team that meets the "Team Characteristics: Outside Instep", please select the player]

[It is detected that there are players in the team who meet the "Team Special Effect: S-type Free Kick", please select the player]

[Note: If the team level and player level are low, the team characteristics will be gradually unlocked. After one person learns the team characteristics, the learning position for three people can be opened. After three people learn, the learning position for the whole team can be opened.]

Rows of messages popped up.

As for team characteristics, only one person can learn each characteristic at present.

Once you have learned and mastered it, three people can learn it, and then the whole team can learn it.

Real Madrid jumped directly to the last step.

That's the gap between the players.

"Level"!
Those who qualify as "crossing experts" include De Bruyne, Bale, Albrighton and Trippier.

Those who meet the "outside instep" requirement include De Bruyne and Milner.

Bale is one of those who fits the "S-shaped free kick" profile.

A player can only learn one trait at a time.

De Bruyne doesn't have much need for crosses, so he prioritizes learning the "outside of the foot".

Bale is the only one who can take the "S-shaped free kick".

Trippier's pecking order is slightly lower than Kyle Walker, so Albrighton is more suitable to learn to be a "crossing expert". Milner: No! Let De Bruyne learn to cross!

He Tianqi then took a look at the team's player tier list:

[Top star player] There is only one, Maldini.

At his peak, he should have been at a higher level of [superstar level].

But he hasn't been at his peak for a long time.

Or it could be said that he has been at his peak for a long time, but his true peak period may be too short, making it difficult for people to discern the fluctuations in his strength.

【First-class football star rank】Vacant.

[Star players] include Motta and Heskey.

Motta has not improved at all since he left Palermo.

It might even have declined a bit.

Chicken's three-year journey of red and blue, bedridden for two and a half years!
Heskey should be at the level of a "star-level goalkeeper", but as long as he uses his body well and plays tactical roles such as containment, consumption, and fulcrum, he will not continue to fall behind.

There are quite a lot of players at the [top five leagues] level.

After all, He Tianqi still considered the issue of combat effectiveness.

Petrov, Bonucci, Dong Fangzhuo, Fellaini, Schmeichel, Milner, Bale, Cuellar.

The last one is the team's former main central defender, who has now been replaced by Bonucci.

[Secondary league level] includes: Friedel (backup goalkeeper), Curtis (backup defender), Agbonlahor, Clark (backup defender), De Bruyne, Giroud, Albrighton, Walker, Trippier, Kante, Courtois, Guzan (backup goalkeeper).

There are only two people at the professional level.

Amateur player Vardy and "Scottish Iniesta" Barry Bannan.

……

On August 11, the first round of the League Cup begins.

Villa will challenge the "Little Bees" Brentford away.

This future new Premier League team is currently still struggling in English Football League One.

He Tianqi used brand new players in this game:
Dong Fangzhuo, Giroud

De Bruyne
Fellaini, Kante, Milner
Bale, Clarke, Bonucci, Walker

Courtois
-

Among them, only De Bruyne, Milner, Bale and Bonucci were the starters in the last game.

This operation seemed very bold to Inzaghi.

Although the Carabao Cup is not very popular among Premier League teams, it is mainly used for training.

But Inzaghi knew that He Tianqi was going into this game to win.

As a result, so many people were rotated at once.

Are we that strong?
beep!

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

In the ninth minute, Fellaini passed the ball over the top to Dong Fangzhuo, and there was a rapport between the two former Palermo players.

The opponent's defender pulled and tugged, and Dong Fangzhuo finally created a corner kick.

De Bruyne took a corner kick and Giroud's header was saved.

This was a very threatening attack.

But Milner on the field was somewhat unable to fit in.

Because the corner kick used to belong to him.

As soon as He Tianqi came over, he gave it to De Bruyne.

Milner didn't feel anything during training, but during the game, his desire to score goals became much stronger, and all of a sudden he found it a bit difficult to accept.

What to do if I feel a little angry!
In the 15th minute, Fellaini jumped high to compete for the header with the opponent.

As a result, the other party hit him from behind, causing him to fall to the ground.

The referee immediately showed the yellow card.

Milner took the free kick.

He Tianqi did not take over all of Milner's power at once.

Boiling a frog in warm water, ugh... This is called helping Milner reduce his burden! Who wouldn't feel sorry for him who has wrinkles all over his forehead at such a young age?

Milner: Although my name also includes James, you should be talking about LeBron, right?

In the 23rd minute, He Tianqi instructed Bale to make a bold run.

Bell was overjoyed.

After hitting the wall, Fellaini dribbled the ball on the left and passed it ten meters away at an extremely fast speed.

After entering the attacking third, Bale swept his left foot across to find De Bruyne.

Ding Ding passed the ball with the outside of his foot without stopping.

It perfectly matches Dong Fangzhuo's running rhythm.

Dong Fangzhuo scored with a shot.

"GOAL! One to zero!"

"The goal was scored by... King Dong!"

"He responded to some fans' doubts about his performance in the last round with his goal."

"Vera are ahead, that's a good sign!"

"De Bruyne's outside foot is very good. This pass acted like an accelerator."

"Of course, the most dazzling thing was Gareth Bale's breakthrough, which was really eye-catching. He is worthy of being a player who represented the Welsh national team three years ago."

"But I still think Bale should choose to join the England national team."

"In the final analysis, it is because Ashley Cole is too dominant and Ashley Young has emerged as a rising star, so Bale has not been able to develop on the left side of England."

"Oh! Siu!"

Dong Fangzhuo rushed to He Tianqi, and together with He Tianqi, used a siu to bring the stadium commentary back to three years ago.

The world is big, but goal is the biggest!
Dong Fangzhuo then specifically thanked De Bruyne.

He feels comfortable playing with De Bruyne.

Everything will fall into place.

The cake is at your mouth.

It was as if the person who played with him in Palermo for two years was not Fellaini but De Bruyne.

He Tianqi knew what was going on.

Because Palermo's passing and control tactics are built around offensive cores like De Bruyne and Modric.

Dong Fangzhuo is like a nut meeting a screw!

How could Brentford allow themselves to lose?

They have fielded more than half of their main players.

The opportunity to defeat He Tianqi is at hand. Brothers, kill Tianqi and divide him into six!

As a result, the attacking bees were pressed too high.

After Kante completed the steal, he passed the ball to De Bruyne, who launched a counterattack with a long kick.

Kyle Walker advances at high speed down the right.

It's just that the dribbling route is too conservative and too close to the right.

"Restricted area! Move into the restricted area!" He Tianqi reminded Walker.

Walker then pushed the ball towards the middle.

But the sum of the other two sides of the triangle is greater than the third side, so Walker took a long way and lost the opportunity to go straight into the heartland from the middle.

He could only break into the penalty area along the right rib.

Then he was confused.

who am I?
Where am i?

What am I going to do?
Walker, who mainly plays as a right back, doesn't know much except dribbling at high speed and using his body to defend.

Highlight a rough.

Suddenly breaking into the penalty area, he lost his rhythm.

This is why the melon that is forced into the mouth is not sweet.

However, the opponent's central defender solved the problem for Walker.

He ran straight at Walker, but Walker was very good at resisting.

The opponent's subsequent series of actions were distorted, and he finally kicked Walker's foot, knocking him down.

The referee immediately blew his whistle.

"Yellow card and penalty!"

"Walker did a great job! He turned a goal into a penalty!"

"The commentator teased Walker."

Sheffield United has the nerve to ask for 6 million euros?

As expected, he is a player who came from a low-level competition. His offensive quality is too poor and he lacks some very important basic skills.

In the same situation, Trippier, who came out of Manchester City's youth training, would definitely be much better.

After Walker made a penalty, Milner excitedly walked up to argue with the referee.

Of course, he didn't do that to argue, but to help Walker so that he could naturally ask for a penalty.

Most of the players in this game were substitutes.

In order to give the players some room to fight, He Tianqi deliberately did not set the penalty kick right.

But he was not completely without plans.

Wearing the armband, the captain De Bruyne looked at He Tianqi.

He Tianqi gave a low-key look.

Avoid being captured by the media.

After De Bruyne confirmed it, he ran to the penalty spot.

At this time, there were already several players gathered there.

Giroud was the first to run over with the football in his arms.

He is the starting striker, so the penalty must go to the striker.

Milner tried to say to Giroud, "Brother, I have played in two consecutive games. I am the star and it is my turn."

Bale came all the way from behind to watch the show and was a little jealous, but he knew that penalties were not something a defender like him should take.

Walker completed his mission after creating the penalty. He didn't care who took the penalty, as long as he didn't let him take it.

"Olivier, give it to me." De Bruyne went over and asked for the ball.

Because he is popular, Giroud gave it to him subconsciously.

Then De Bruyne handed it to Dong Fangzhuo who was watching the show on the side: "You come and kick it."

There is no room for negotiation at all.

Dong Fangzhuo originally wanted to say something modest.

Ding Ding, aren’t you putting me, Xiao Dong, on the fire?

Do you know "The Doctrine of the Mean"?
De Bruyne quickly whispered in broken Chinese: "For the children."

His Chinese teacher told him that this sentence means "don't refuse."

Dong Fangzhuo was completely stunned by the Chinese in Belgium.

Then he looked in the direction of He Tianqi.

He Tianqi was nodding at him.

When you should be the first to step forward, you should be the first to step forward; when you should take responsibility, you should take responsibility.

If you are afraid of the rumors that others will spread after you stand up, then when your crown is taken away, you can only bear it.

The camera focused on Dong Fangzhuo.

Ten seconds later, the football went into the goal.

Dong Fangzhuo's nervousness and worries all turned into joy.

He rushed towards De Bruyne and motioned for him to jump on his back to express his gratitude.

De Bruyne jumped up.

Forward + attacking midfielder.

This combination reminds people of Shevchenko and Kaka of AC Milan back then!

Isn’t CP very popular now?
Some fans named them "Bu Dong pretends to know"!
Let’s go with the pun!

Two to zero!
Villa extended their lead.

Dong Fangzhuo scored twice, breaking his own single-season goal record at Manchester United - one goal in a single season!
The game then entered the halftime break.

He Tianqi did not make many comments on the performance of both sides.

If you can't even beat Brentford with this lineup, you should just go play in the amateur league.

You will be the worst class I have ever taught!
Inzaghi: So your head coach is a non-stick pan, right?
