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

Chapter 236 Giggs, Bale and Donald compete for the top spot, Milner wants to compete with Tintin

Three old and three young.

It seems fair, but in fact it denies the basis for many young players to compete for penalties.

Otherwise, what will really happen to the team is that six players including Giroud, Milner and Bale will compete for points.

At this time, one or two veterans expressed that they were also qualified.

The team will definitely be in chaos.

Not selling people won't solve the problem at all.

Chelsea: What do you mean?
But after some places were reduced by age, the penalty battle turned into an internal battle among young people. If the remaining young people want a place, they have to stand out among the young people.

This internal struggle even played a promoting role, turning a bad thing into a good thing.

The six players shortlisted are all penalty takers for the team.

The penalty kicks are awarded in order of priority.

If the penalty is missed, the next player will take over next time.

If you don’t miss the penalty, just keep taking penalties.

Seems fairer, doesn't it?

But the order is also crucial!
Studies have shown that the penalty success rate in major leagues is approximately between 70% and 80%.

Theoretically, Dong Fangzhuo would have to take four or five penalties before it was De Bruyne's turn.

De Bruyne made four or five free throws to Abang Laho.

A team generally does not receive more than ten penalties in a single season.

Including other competitions, theoretically, only the top three players can take penalties this season.

This is definitely giving young people an opportunity.

But it did not completely cut off the fantasies of older players, and to a certain extent it also allowed the older players to provide a safety net for the team.

After one season, He Tianqi believes that one of these three young players will definitely be able to get the real absolute penalty kick right.

In fact, the rest of the people have no chance of getting a penalty kick, instead of "it's the three of them this year, it's your turn next year" as said before.

As for Maldini, he is the key to this move and the key among the keys.

I, Maldini, am ranked last. Where do you mediocre people want to rank?

Listen to the arrangements, okay?

Using legendary stars to suppress the Championship-level locker room will ensure that there won't be any trouble in the next one or two years.

Especially since Maldini is a leader-level player.

Of course, if you replace it with a legendary superstar like Matthäus, it would be hard to say.

This is a tough guy who will be beaten wherever he goes even with the legendary halo.

Ten seconds later, Dong Fangzhuo withstood the pressure and scored the penalty.

"GOAL!"

"Two to zero! Dong Fangzhuo scored in consecutive games! He has the demeanor of a great general!"

In the 45th minute, the first half is about to end.

Abanglaho's cross was cleared by the opponent, who took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

The opponent's forward shot from long range.

Bonucci stretched out his foot to block the ball, which changed its direction and avoided Schmeichel's save and went into the goal.

One to two.

Nottingham Forest scored a crucial goal.

Both sides then returned to the locker room.

He Tianqi first affirmed the team members whose morale had slightly declined.

In fact, Villa played very well in this game and had many opportunities.

However, many attacks lack a little luck, which makes it difficult to score.

The opponent scored with just a casual kick.

This will make the players feel subconsciously very tired and difficult.

"We are doing very well. Keep playing like this." He Tianqi said loudly, "As time goes by, the opponent's defensive quality will inevitably decline. Then it will be easier for us to score more goals."

"Of course, the premise is that the quality of our offense does not decline."

"So in the second half, if anyone is not physically fit and can't keep up with the pace, don't force it. Tell Motta and De Bruyne immediately, and they will change direction appropriately to give everyone time to recover."

"If you do these, we will definitely win a big victory in this game!"

What is a great victory?

Three goals or more is considered a big win.

For an experienced person, there is no difference between one to zero and three to zero, both are three points.

But for the young players, 3-0 is much more satisfying than 1-0.

Don’t discuss points and data with them. This seemingly meaningless “feeling of satisfaction” is the “magic drug” that drives young people to work at high speed at low cost.

The effect is limited to students and newcomers to the workplace.

Once they've been around for a few years, their empty promises won't work anymore.

In the 47th minute, De Bruyne suddenly made a straight pass while the opponent had not yet fully entered the game state.

The opponent knocked the ball out of bounds in panic.

Corner kick.

De Bruyne took a corner kick and Bonucci jumped high and headed the ball into the goal.

"GOAL! Three to one!"

"Bonucci heads the ball into the goal!"

"Villa's heading ability is very strong in the Championship. Even though they have Kante, the shortest player in the Championship, they actually have a lot of tall and strong players in the team!"

"Inter Milan's central defender Bonucci is very strong and has a strong presence on both offense and defense!"

"With a legendary defender like Maldini by his side, his future will be brighter."

In fact, thanks to Maldini's generous teaching, Bonucci's defensive command, overall view, long passes, etc. have all improved.

Maldini also hopes to train a reliable central defender for the Italian national team.

However, it is a pity that the Italian team has no shortage of excellent central defenders, but lacks excellent forwards.

The main reason for losing to Spain in the 08 European Cup was lack of firepower.

This is the part where Maldini feels helpless.

In the 49th minute, Nottingham Forest just kicked off and was preparing to launch an attack from the wing.

As a result, Walker directly completed the steal, launched a counterattack from the wing, and dribbled the ball across half court at high speed.

Agbonlahor cut inside without the ball, creating space for Walker.

As Walker went down the flank, Villa's midfield and backcourt also chose to press forward.

Especially the defensive gate Motta, who made a very decisive run forward and passed directly by Petrov.

Petrov was a little shocked.

If our team suddenly loses the ball, won't we be completely defeated by the opponent's counterattack?
Is Motta being a little too aggressive?

boom!
"Pass back, don't pass the ball in, pass back!" He Tianqi yelled at the side.

Even without any special effects, the increase in volume brought by [The Bandit's Roar] is always a magical skill!

This is something that no other coach can do even with a megaphone.

boom!
Walker made a reverse triangle pass.

As it happens, his crossing skills were poor to begin with.

He Tianqi's tactical requirements and his technical characteristics can be said to be running in two directions.

This is the important reason why Trippier, who is very good at crossing, was relegated to the bench!
boom!
Motta shot the ball from the right side outside the penalty area.

The football went straight into the net!

"GOAL!"

"Four to one! Aston Villa's counterattack was too fierce!"

"Two goals in two minutes, instantly stunned Nottingham Forest."

"The score that was originally so close suddenly became unattainable!"

"Nottingham Forest is in trouble!"

"This world-class goal from Motta is of such high quality! This is exactly what he is good at. He is extremely dominant on both offense and defense!"

"In comparison, Busquets, who Barcelona used this season, seems too mediocre. Is He Tianqi going to prove once again with practical actions that Barcelona made the wrong choice by selling Motta?"

To be honest, some Barcelona fans have been broken by Motta's performance.

Without saying too much, just this long shot is something that Motta never had the chance to perform at Barcelona.

Playing football for family members, being submissive and obedient.

Help He Tianqi play football and punch hard!
Brother Mo, your way of playing football is too biased!
AS did not even wait for the game to end before updating its headline: "The world's best defensive midfielder is back! Motta, who was sent away by Barcelona with a salary loss, is back to his peak!"

However, Aston Villa's attack did not stop there.

Or maybe two goals in two minutes were too fast and Nottingham Forest hadn't reacted yet.

In the 53rd minute, Aston Villa's army pressed forward.

The ball was handed over to the two defenders, Maldini and Bonucci.

The players in the midfield and frontcourt frequently moved around, and the triangle rotation movement was initially applied in this team.

Maldini seized the opportunity to pass the ball to Bale on the left.

Bale accelerated to his full speed, caught up with the football and kicked a low curved pass with his left foot.

In the penalty area, Villa had just completed a triangle substitution.

Husky withdraws from the penalty area.

Dong Fangzhuo cut inside without the ball and replaced Heskey's original position.

De Bruyne moved forward to Dong Fangzhuo's area on the left flank.

Bale's goal was aimed at Dong Fangzhuo.

Dong Fangzhuo rushed towards the football, but it was a little out of his reach.

He immediately fell to the ground, stretched his legs, and touched the football with a sliding shot.

Then he and the ball went into the goal at the front point.

You know what, only Dong Fangzhuo could catch this ball.

If it was Heskey, he couldn't even hit the shovel shot.

Bale's pass still seemed a bit inconsiderate of the feelings of the elderly.

Bell: Huh? Even with such a small lead time, I can't catch up? I can even overrun!

"GOAL! It's close again! Vera scores again!"

"Within eight minutes of the second half, Villa scored three goals in a row! Scoring a goal is easier than drinking water!"

"Dong Fangzhuo completed a hat trick!"

"Two games, five goals, King Dong is conquering England!"

England: I am a beautiful dog, why should I conquer?
There was silence at Nottingham Forest's home ground.

They finally experienced what it meant to "score a goal but not have enough time to boo the opponent".

It all happened so fast.

Nottingham was silenced by this three-hit wave.

In this situation, Nottingham Forest could only shrink to avoid losing the ball and did not attack at all.

More than ten minutes later, Nottingham Forest recovered a little, but at the same time, they were stimulated by Villa's offensive and their defensive actions were visibly strengthened.

In the 67th minute, Petrov was hit in the nose by the opponent's elbow during the confrontation, and his nose was bleeding.

He Tianqi also started to replace players.

Fellaini replaces Petrov.

Giroud replaces Heskey.

In the 71st minute, Dong Fangzhuo received the ball outside the penalty area and was entangled by the opponent. The opponent made a pulling action.

Although Dong Fangzhuo finally got rid of the opponent, his subsequent shot was affected and went straight away.

Dong Fangzhuo then complained to the referee.

De Bruyne came over to defend his teammates immediately and put pressure on the referee.

On the contrary, the third captain Abang Laho saw that De Bruyne had already complained, so he did not continue to put pressure on him.

In fact, he gave up his captaincy.

Once or twice doesn't matter.

If this happens too many times, teammates or the outside world may assume that De Bruyne is the one in charge.

It’s not that Abanglao has a bad personality. It’s mainly because De Bruyne is a midfielder. After passing the ball, he was the one who saw Dong Fangzhuo’s situation most clearly. Naturally, he had more confidence to complain to the referee.

The same thing happens in midfield and at the back.

When the midfielder returns to the back, he often participates in defense and must obey the instructions of the defender.

The power fell into the hands of the defenders invisibly.

So generally all the captains of the midfield and frontcourt are in the midfield.

The captains of the midfield and backcourt are all at the back.

In the 73rd minute, Bale broke through the wing and created a corner kick.

De Bruyne took a corner kick and the opponent's defender cleared the ball, but the ball did not fly far and flew to the left side of the penalty area.

Bale volleyed the ball with his left foot.

No technique, just emotion.

The football drew a wonderful arc and went straight into the net.

No one can save this kind of magical ball.

"GOAL! Six to one! Bale scored his first goal for Aston Villa!"

“It also breaks the Gareth Bale curse that was wrapped around him!”

"This reminds me of a famous song... Say goodbye to Spurs troubles and say hello to Villa goals!"

Nottingham Forest fans have gone numb.

But not many fans left early.

After all, as a team ranked last in the league, the reason why the stadium was packed with guests today is mainly because everyone wants to see the stars.

Take a look at Villa's future stars.

Look at veteran stars like He Tianqi, Maldini and Motta.

That's worth the money.

In the 75th minute, He Tianqi used his last substitution.

Albrighton replaced Dong Fangzhuo.

It’s not that I want to deliberately create a sense of hunger in Dong Fangzhuo and prevent him from performing hat tricks in succession.

Rather, the quality of his offense has declined.

In order to ensure the team's combat effectiveness, the team's forwards must not retain any stubborn members.

Albrighton and Agbonlahor switched positions and played as right midfielder.

Although Abanglaho also has physical deficiencies, his playing style is different from Dong Fangzhuo, so the quality of the attack can be guaranteed.

To be more specific, Dong Fangzhuo plays as an all-around forward and can create offensive opportunities by himself, but this also consumes a lot of energy.

Abang Laho is a pure speed-oriented striker who needs to be fed through the ball by the midfield and enters power-saving mode at other times.

In the 84th minute, Motta passed the ball to Albrighton.

Albrighton made a cross with a good arc.

Fellaini rushed into the penalty area and fought with the opponent's central defender, heading the ball.

Giroud stood still, without having to jump up, and headed the ball directly into the goal.

"GOAL! Seven to one!"

"Giroud, the great center forward from France, also scored!"

"Aston Villa is going crazy today! This is not just slightly spicy, this is super spicy!"

"Poor Nottingham Forest, they will fall directly into the relegation zone after losing this game!"

"It seems that although Villa lost to Newcastle United, they are still a very competitive team in the Championship. He Tianqi still has a chance to lead them to the Premier League this season!"

In the end, the game ended with a score of seven to one.

De Bruyne, Bonucci, Bale and Giroud all scored for Villa for the first time.

Dong Fangzhuo scored two goals and made one assist, and was named the best player of the game.

Bale and De Bruyne scored one goal and one assist, tied for the second highest score in the game.

……

The Times: "It's a legend! Villa is worthy of being the favorite to be promoted to the Premier League, 7-1 to send Nottingham Forest to the last place in the Championship standings!"

Sky Sports: "'New Giggs' Bale made one assist and one goal, reshaping the glory of Wales! 'Donald' was the man of the match in consecutive games, and the excess productivity was suspected of dumping!"

Manchester Evening News: "The examples of Ronaldo and Dong Fangzhuo tell us that fans need to be more tolerant of players. So please be more patient with Welbeck, Joshua King and Stewart!"

The Sun: "A 'mysterious reader of this newspaper for 20 years' deeply analyzed De Bruyne's technical characteristics, and bluntly said that if he did three things well, he could freeze Villa's new core! He believes that his reputation should not be better than that of Modric at the same time!"

The Sun: "No one paid attention to the previous professional news. This news was corrected in time. It was found that many young models in England are moving to Birmingham on a large scale, creating opportunities for encountering He Tianqi!"

A game makes some people mentally unbalanced.

Modric made a huge mistake in the game against Real Madrid, which led to the team being defeated.

His performance declined significantly under Pellegrini's tactical system.

If this continues, the possibility of him moving from the core of the team to the substitute of the team cannot be ruled out.

August 18th to September 15th.

Twenty-eight days, six games.

There is also a national team match day in between.

The intensity of the schedule can be imagined.

Among them, Aston Villa defeated five teams successively: Peterborough United, Ipswich, Fulham (second round of the League Cup), Sheffield United and Plymouth.

They achieved five consecutive wins in the Championship League and seven consecutive wins in all competitions.

Until the recent game against Toncaster Rovers they had not lost.

Among them, the match against Sheffield United was the most tense.

This team is ranked sixth in the Championship and is the strongest among these teams.

Vardy was also a youth player of this team.

When he was sixteen years old, he was released from the team because of his short stature (only about 1.4 meters tall at the time) and his love of fighting.

This was not a problem at the time.

But the prodigal son will never change his fortune.

Vardy came on as a substitute in this game and scored, helping Villa beat Sheffield United.

Rebel against his former master.

Vardy's passionate celebration left Sheffield United humiliated.

After the game, Villa's bus was attacked by local fans.

No wonder Vardy liked to fight when he was a child. It can only be said that the local people are indeed tough and you should adapt to the local customs.

Afterwards, Sheffield United was fined by the English Football Association, but at first they did not intend to give the money to Villa to repair the bus.

The FA paid the compensation to Villa only after Villa raised questions and requested compensation.

However, this fine was only enough to compensate for the repair of the bus, which was far less than the amount that Sheffield United had to pay.

The corruption problem in the English Football Association system is so serious that it is already terminally ill.

Corruption is proceduralized and even protected by the judiciary.

Such "Emperor's New Clothes" stories are especially common in Europe.

On the contrary, Fulham, a Premier League team in the second round of the EFL Cup, is not difficult to play against.

Because they sent youth training and pure substitute players to play.

There is not a single main force.

This is normal in the EFL Cup.

Some Premier League teams still let their second teams play even after reaching the semi-finals of the English League Cup.

In comparison, the FA Cup is much more important and more difficult.

This is also the main difference between the English League and other leagues.

In Italy, Spain, etc., teams generally only have three competitions a season.

League, European competitions, domestic cup competitions (Coppa Italia, Copa del Rey).

England has two domestic cup competitions, the FA Cup and the EFL Cup.

People generally assume that the FA Cup is one of the three competitions.

The Carabao Cup is inferior to the FA Cup in terms of tournament history, range of participating teams, prize money, and European qualification.

The latter has a longer history and includes all teams from the top ten leagues in England. The prize money is twenty times or even more than that of the League Cup, and the champion will qualify for the Europa League next season.

The Carabao Cup qualified for the Europa League play-offs. There are still several rounds of matches from the play-offs to the main competition, so the difference is quite big.

This run of five wins and one loss also successfully allowed Villa to rise to second place in the Championship standings.

The gap with Newcastle is within one game.

As a result, He Tianqi also obtained [Fast Horse]*3, [Basic Through Pass], and [Basic Header].

The three [Fast Horses] were assigned to Bell, Abanglao and Walker respectively.

[Basic through ball] was given to De Bruyne.

[Basic header] was given to Bonucci.

In addition, Motta's skill [Basic Long Shot] has reached the proficiency requirement and has been upgraded to [Heavy Gunner - Star Level].

However, Villa's defeat was the opportunity that many media outlets on Fleet Street had been waiting for.

They had long been fed up with He Tianqi's "oppression" of Milner.

Sky Sports: "Did Villa just lose a game? No, they actually encountered a rookie wall! I'm afraid they will face a wave of ups and downs next!"

"BBC": "De Bruyne is lost in the streets of Doncaster! Milner deserves more ball possession, he is more mature and stable than De Bruyne!"

The Times: "Milner's agent is not happy with his current situation at Villa. He thinks He Tianqi's use of Milner is an overkill!"

Liverpool Echo: "If Liverpool had Milner, they would definitely train him to be the next Gerrard, not the next all-purpose substitute!"

The Sun even published a cover photo of a beautiful model on page 3. In the photo, a large girl was pole dancing. The title of this issue was: "Who dares to say that we only play on the edge and don't understand the ball?"

"We accurately predicted Villa's problems a month ago! After De Bruyne was targeted, Villa lost the game!"

But to be honest, with this style of pictures, it's hard to remember what they said a month ago.

Fans responded one after another: You are older, you are right.

At the instigation of the media.

Milner plucked up the courage to find He Tianqi.

"Boss, I... I want to contribute more to the team. I think I can do better than Kevin." After Milner finished speaking, his vest was soaked.

It is really not easy to say this in front of a world-class coach who is known for his strength.

He Tianqi was not as furious as Milner had imagined.

Instead, he smiled and nodded, "Okay."

"Boss, please, give me a chance, I will definitely prove... okay?" Milner spoke out the script he had prepared, but found it was unnecessary.

Because He Tianqi and Tongtong agreed?
This……

If Milner dared to look directly into He Tianqi's eyes after he finished speaking, he would have seen the surprise in He Tianqi's eyes.

This is the joy of a sleepy head meeting a pillow.
