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

Chapter 431 Grealish's maximum is million, Morata's dream returns to the peak

As time entered December, Villa's winning streak remained uninterrupted.

In two consecutive Premier League rounds, they defeated Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 and 2-1 respectively.

On December 9th, the sixth round of the Champions League group stage kicked off at Villa's home stadium.

Even Birmingham fans have to admit that it was the right decision to loan Birmingham's home stadium to Villa.

Because Birmingham was relegated again.

If it had not been loaned to Villa, the influence and income of the stadium and even the entire city would have been reduced accordingly.

Of course, Vera’s days of living under someone else’s roof won’t last long.

In the summer of 2016, the new "Apocalypse Stadium" will be officially delivered and put into use.

In the early stages of the stadium's construction, many people thought that Villa's estimate of the number of people attending the stadium was too optimistic and that the capacity was too large.

If the seats are not fully occupied by fans, it will affect the home atmosphere.

Now, everyone will just shout that He Tianqi is wise.

Because no matter how optimistic Villa fans are, they could never have imagined that Villa could win so many championships in the past two years!

Seven championships for two consecutive seasons!

Including the World Cup, they won eight titles last season.

Almost the entire city of Birmingham has become Villa's supporters.

There is no Birmingham derby anymore.

When talking about the city of Birmingham, many younger fans only know Villa, because they know the city through Villa.

This Champions League match is the last game of this round and it is also a meaningless game.

Because the two qualifying teams in this group had already secured their place after the last round of matches.

That is Aston Villa and Juventus.

If Juventus wins this game, they may advance as the group leader.

As long as Villa doesn't lose, they will be first.

Considering that this is a match between two giants, Villa and Juventus, UEFA cleverly put up the sign of "First in the Premier League VS First in Serie A".

Borrowing He Tianqi's previous praise for Juventus, he called this game a "preview of the Champions League final"!
I just want to ask you if you are bluffing or not!

As a result, the game was ruined, but it became one of the most watched games of this round.

Juventus flew to Birmingham, and Toni was still absent.

In addition, Juventus goalkeeper Buffon also missed the game due to a fever.

Among two goalkeepers in their thirties and two young goalkeepers in their teens, Juventus finally chose the 19-year-old youngster Volpe.

I hope to train him and find the next goalkeeper for Juventus who can fight for fifteen years!

The Italian media generally call him "Buffon's successor", but it is not known which generation of successor he is.

They believe that Volpe's talent is far superior to Alisson's. After all, Alisson is already 22 years old.

Whoever is young is amazing!

Juventus also made adjustments to their formation, changing from 4312 to 532.

One word, steady!

The starting players are still the main players in the team:
Tevez, Morata
Pogba, Pirlo, Marchisio
Evra, Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli, Lichtsteiner
Volpe

-

It can be seen that Juventus really wants to beat Villa once.

This will be very helpful in building their Champions League confidence.

And Vera is also very cooperative!
After confirming that the Champions League was no longer a suspense, He Tianqi was not nostalgic for the team's current winning streak. He rested the main players and arranged a superb lineup:

Martial, Kane, Grealish
Modric, Casemiro, Xhaka

Cuadrado, Rudiger, Maguire, Trippier

The Great Wall

-

Three formations!

This cliff is definitely three formations!

Allegri shouted "This is disrespect to Juventus", but he had a big smile on his face!

After seeing this lineup, Guardiola, Simeone, Inzaghi, Zidane and others couldn't help but sigh that the master was a little too good to Allegri.

With this lineup, will Villa be beaten to a pulp?
……

With a whistle, the game with a huge disparity in strength began.

Juventus took the lead.

In the third minute, after receiving the pass from Morata in the penalty area, Marchisio made a fake move to shake off Maguire and passed the ball through the crotch.

The show is so stunning that it makes your scalp tingle.

Unfortunately, after he dribbled past the opponent, Casemiro, who was actively returning to defense, kicked the ball out of the baseline and ruined the opportunity.

It wasn't until the fifth minute that Villa retained the ball for the first time.

After Modric asked for the ball in the midfield, he dribbled sideways and ran all the way to the right.

Using Casemiro's large model pick-and-roll, he delayed Marchisio's pursuit.

boom!
Modric passed the ball to Xhaka who was coming up, then pointed it at Grealish.

Xhaka immediately passed the ball to Grealish without stopping.

This is a clever small-scale collaboration.

"Pass it straight!" Modric continued to direct.

Grealish used his right foot to pass the ball.

He used to be a left winger, because in the past decade, wingers with reverse foot have become the mainstream in football, and he has excellent dribbling skills, which shows a tendency to become a super winger.

Unfortunately, being smart when young may not necessarily be a good thing when grown up.

Grealish's speed held him back and he was unable to become a super striker who could cut inside and shoot on the left side. Although he was always able to pass his opponent, he was always caught up by him.

So he could only stagger, dribble dizzily and then pass the ball back.

This season, He Tianqi let Grealish play on the right, which was to tell the kid, don't think about becoming a superstar, that is not your path.

The dribbling version of Beckham and the technically sophisticated version of Albrighton are your future.

After using his powerful dribbling skills to create space on the right, he passed the ball directly, with plenty of time and space.

It can not only give full play to the dribbling advantage, but also does not expose the speed disadvantage.

Grealish is also adapting.

For a player like him who can only exert his power with the ball at his feet, it is very difficult to transform into a player who is ready to explode at any time and has as little contact with the football as possible.

It's just like it's very painful for a shooter to pass the ball, but for some passing midfielders, they prefer to pass the ball when the chances of passing and shooting are 50-50.

The path of a player depends on both skills and personal character.

Chiellini and Martial, who had moved over earlier, ran towards the football at the same time. The former used his rich experience to get in front and was able to touch the football first.

As a result, Martial broke the rules and secretly elbowed Chiellini.

Chiellini felt the pain and his foot trembled when he tried to catch the ball, so the ball slipped past him.

The situation is reversed instantly!

Martial rushed towards the football, accelerated, and broke into the Juventus penalty area with a big move.

Volpe's attack was aggressive, but he was hesitant when he got to the ground.

He wasn't sure which direction he should jump.

As a result, Martial saw the opponent's hesitation and shot low.

The football went through his crotch.

Into the goal.

"GOAL! One to zero! Villa actually scored the first goal!"

"It was a beautiful team performance, but also a great individual performance from Martial."

"Chiellini made a mistake and he complained to the referee, but it was difficult because Martial's foul was hidden.

"Glarish is useless on the left, not to mention compared with Mane and Sterling, Martial can beat him by two or three heads." "But on the right, Grealish's excellent dribbling and footwork are advantages. If he can really play as a smooth winger, he will be very competitive in terms of rarity."

"At least it will be the championship puzzle that many teams need!"

"Albrighton is his best predecessor!"

After the World Cup, Albrighton and Vardy's value skyrocketed.

It is said that wealthy teams such as Paris Saint-Germain, Monaco and Manchester City are willing to give the two players a transfer fee of more than 80 million euros.

Leicester City themselves were surprised.

They bought these two players without expecting them to appreciate in value, as long as they can play a role.

After all, they started at a high position.

The average price of the two players is 65 million euros.

With this case in mind, and Real Madrid spending 180 million euros on Bale, many teams now want to buy Villa's players, and do not mind Villa's generally high asking price.

Facts have proved that the players bought from Villa at a high price are not only good value for money, but also still have room for appreciation!
……

In the ninth minute, Pogba took a long shot from outside the penalty area.

Good quality.

But Alisson was fully focused and saved the ball.

Withstood the first test of this game.

He and Walton are both young goalkeepers, and the other has a better background, but starting from this game, the destinies of the two have taken completely different directions.

In the 14th minute, Cuadrado broke through Lichtsteiner on the left and made a cross.

Bonucci cleared the ball with a header.

Grealish chested the ball on the right side of the penalty area, waited for the ball to land, and then volleyed it.

Chiellini flew to block the shot and blocked the ball out of the baseline.

He Tianqi shook his head. This was the reason why Yaozi could not become a world-class top striker.

If you stop the ball with your chest, then just volley it!

What's the point of waiting for the ball to hit the ground before shooting?
This is also the difference between "modern technical players" and "classical technical players".

Classical technical players, headed by Ronaldinho, are not only good at showing off their skills on the ground, but are also great at aerial tricks. They are artists who can control the football in the air.

Neymar is probably the last of this type.

However, many modern technical players are obsessed with controlling the ball on the ground and reject controlling the ball in the air, so they lack the ability to use vertical height to pass the opponent and score goals.

The outstanding representative of modern technical players is Messi.

But Messi is not incapable of volleying the ball. He may even be better than Neymar in this regard.

However, his ability to control the ball on the ground is so extreme that his ability to control the ball in the air seems a bit flashy.

Most of Messi's imitators only have the ability to control the ball on the ground. Over time, many media and technical commentators even mistakenly believe that dribbling and ball-controlling skills refer specifically to ground abilities.

"For a player like Grealish, the best he can be sold for is 100 million euros." He Tianqi sighed.

The people of Terzic standing by were all dumbfounded.

Is 100 million euros not too much?
Little did people know that the 100 million euros mentioned by He Tianqi were from an era when 180 million were everywhere and 150 million were worse off than dogs.

In the 18th minute, Martial received the ball on the left and cut inside, but unfortunately Lichtsteiner and Barzagli were defending him double-team, leaving him no space to break through, so he could only pass the ball back.

Modric used his left foot to pass the ball over a long distance without stopping it, and his vision was incredibly good.

Trippier received the ball on the outside right side, unguarded.

He made a slight adjustment, raised his leg and made a... fake pass!

Grealish made a forward run to the bottom line.

Trippier made a through ball.

Thanks to Trippier's powerful crossing ability, Grealish easily got the chance, was unguarded, and had a lot of time to observe the situation in front of the goal.

Grealish caught up with the ball deep in the penalty area and made a high-quality cross with his right foot.

Accurately find Kane in front of the goal.

boom!
Kane didn't need to exert any effort, the ball bounced into the net.

"GOAL!!!"

"Two to zero! The Villa youngster is going crazy! Who could have thought?"

"A tree that is moved can live a dead person, Grealish assisted to score twice, Albrighton is not old but a new Albrighton has appeared!"

"Considering that Grealish is more handsome, you can now call him the new Beckham!"

Shake celebrated with Kane and found that he made an assist on the right, which seemed pretty good?
In the 21st minute, Villa used a corner kick tactic.

After receiving the ball, Grealish ran straight into the penalty area along the bottom line, then swept the ball in front of the goal, trying to create an own goal.

But Chiellini saw through it and boldly kicked the ball out of the baseline.

In the 24th minute, Grealish dribbled too much on the right side and was intercepted by Pirlo.

Pogba caught up with the ball and made a long pass to launch a counterattack.

Morata took the lead and challenged Alisson alone and succeeded.

The football rolled into the goal.

Everyone looked at the linesman first.

This time the linesman did not raise the flag.

"GOAL! One to two! Morata helped the team score a goal!"

"Finally he was not offside this time!"

"Morata who is not offside is not sloppy!"

Once upon a time, Morata was also the "little king" of Real Madrid.

It's a pity that in that Silver He battleship, their young players didn't have the opportunity to play, unlike the current Villa, which has many opportunities.

In the 28th minute, Tevez received the ball on the left side of the penalty area.

Maguire rashly rushed forward to grab the ball.

Tevez successfully dribbled past the opponent and then made a wonderful inverted triangle pass.

Morata shot the ball with a great chance.

But the ball went wide of the goal.

Morata and Tevez both held their heads and expressed how unbearable it was.

Morata is not sloppy but his gluttony is lame!
In the 31st minute, Juventus found their groove.

Pogba made a through ball, still looking for Tevez.

After Tevez received the ball outside the penalty area on the left side, he once again used his personal ability to break into the penalty area.

This time Maguire learned his lesson and did not kick the ball, but instead pushed Tevez away.

However, after Tevez was knocked away, he actually overtook the opponent from the outside.

Maguire turned and chased, but was ultimately a beat late.

Tevez dribbled the ball to the corner of the small penalty area and passed the ball horizontally.

Alisson makes a save.

There is no way, Tevez can shoot from this position.

boom!
Morata shot again, and this time he didn't miss the target.

The football went into the goal.

"GOAL!!!"

"A brace! Morata scored two goals in seven minutes to help the team equalize the score."

"And he even wasted a great opportunity! This player's ability to create opportunities is really strong!"

"He Tianqi trusted the young people of Vera too much."

"Although Villa's young players have outstanding abilities and good teamwork, they are very volatile. It is normal for them to be superb when the wind is in their favor and super bad when the wind is against them."

"I'm afraid Vera will be in trouble next!"
