The Glory of the Godfather

Aston Villa defeated the Bundesliga South King Bayern Munich 5-3 at the new Wembley Stadium, crowned the king of Europe, and became the first in the history of European football. The hustle and bustle of the team has slowly dissipated. .

Aston Villa fans talked about the grand occasion of the team returning to Birmingham after winning the championship from London.

That day, the entire Birmingham alley was empty, and the club held the most spectacular and vast championship parade in the club's 100-year history.

On that day, the headlines of major sports media around the world were almost dominated by the news that Birmingham was crowned the King of Europe and the Four Crowns.

Now, more than a month has passed, the new season has not yet begun, and the team's training for the new season has not yet begun. This is the most boring period for fans who are used to the noisy season.

In a bar in Birmingham.

Sports news is being broadcast on TV. This is a report that Real Madrid's Argentine star Higuain is approaching Arsenal.

On the TV screen, a well-known transfer expert vowed to say that Higuain would be able to come to London for a medical examination as early as tomorrow afternoon.

Afterwards, the reporter also interviewed some Arsenal fans randomly. The gun fans were very excited. They have already planned to pick Higuain at London Heathrow Airport tomorrow.

When the transfer window just opened this summer, the major media broke the news that Arsenal would spend 60 million to buy Real Madrid forward Higuain.

This kind of news is kept in the past, and gun fans who have seen strong winds and waves will not believe it. However, the signs now make people start to believe that this transfer is true:

First of all, before the summer transfer window officially opened, many media broke the news that Arsenal's transfer budget this summer was 70 million pounds.

In other words, this summer, we are rich in Arsenal;

There is also that Higuain is at a disadvantage in the starting competition with Benzema. It is very possible to change to a giant that can guarantee the starting position. At least the media say this.

In the end, the media almost insisted that Higuain is not Arsenal not to marry. Let’s use this as transfer expert Pixar. He frequently broke the news that Higuain is trying his best to Arsenal to get closer, and whether it is Higuain’s side I think Arsenal did not deny it, so now Pixar broke the news that Higuain is coming to London for a medical examination. This news also made Arsenal fans very happy.

...

Looking at the excited Arsenal fans on the TV screen, the Aston Villa fans in front of the TV were a little depressed and unhappy.

The transfer window has been open for more than a month, but Aston Villa has hardly moved in the transfer market.

In terms of player sales, Italian defender Thornton was tempted after being called by his old club Inter Milan.

Fang Jue had previously joked that Thornton was imported from Inter Milan at the price of cabbage and then sold to Inter Milan at a high price after being cultivated-his joke back then has now become a reality.

Inter Milan is bound to win against Thornton. Moratti, who is about to complete the equity conversion and sell Inter Milan, is determined to bring his beloved Inter Milan a final farewell gift. He is bound to win Thornton.

In the end, Inter Milan spent 26.5 million euros to take away their wandering prince.

Then the Korean player Sun Xingmin's loan period in the Bundesliga Hamburg team was extended. The young South Korean international will continue to play in the Hamburg team for one year in the new season.

In signings, Aston Villa has not made any moves so far.

In other words, the only action is to promote French defender Kanter of the reserve team to the first team, replacing the veteran Greno who chose to retire after the end of last season.

Aston Villa fans who are accustomed to the team coming in and out of the transfer window every summer are really uncomfortable with this situation.

Of course, in the eyes of Birmingham media and many English media, this has even more demonstrated the maturity of Aston Villa and the more stable dynasty.

In this summer, Modric, Mane, Hames Rodriguez, Kyle Walker, Milner, Lewandowski, De Bruyne, Vardy, etc. and even Pogba Young players have been favored by many media outlets from many giants.

According to this approach of the media, almost all of the Aston Villa team is about to be sold again.

The Times joked that, except for Clement, almost all Aston Villa players have been'sold out'.

Clement is not coveted by the rich?

This is impossible, but everyone knows that Clement is Fang Jue's die-hard direct line, and the other party feels loyal and can't dig.

Under this circumstance, all the players of Aston Villa, except Thornton, have left without a player so far. In the eyes of many media, this is the best news:

Aston Villa is already a real giant, and now they are basically the only ones who take advantage of others. Their own players rarely consider leaving, and can withstand the temptation of other giants-now football, Aston Villa is a well-deserved dream team.

...

Of course, this is also inseparable from Aston Villa's move to renew the contract with the players on a relatively large scale. After all, sincereness also needs real money to consolidate.

Modric's weekly salary has been increased from 45,000 pounds to 90,000 pounds, which directly doubled.

Milner's weekly salary has also increased from £55,000 to £75,000.

Kyle Walker's weekly salary has risen from £30,000 to £55,000, which is nearly doubled.

Aston Villa is relatively quiet in the transfer market, so the biggest ‘fun’ for Aston Villa fans now is to see how other teams are in the transfer market.

In the past few days, watching Tottenham Hotspur sign Brazilian star Paulinho.

After Manchester City spent 20 million pounds to sign Spanish striker Negredo, they spent another 30 million euros to sign Jovic from Florence.

Manchester United also signed Moyes' favorite Fellaini from Everton.

Chelsea spent 32 million pounds to introduce Brazilian winger William.

Liverpool spent nine million euros to introduce Aspers.

Seeing other competitors’ screaming signings, Aston Villa’s fans shouldn’t be anxious, it’s possible. They are more or less greedy and anxious. If you want to say it’s too anxious, Aston Villa has already In the Premier League for four consecutive championships, fans have become accustomed to Aston Villa dominating the Premier League, which is a kind of confidence brought by long-term dominance.

...

On August 11, the 2013 Community Shield Cup.

Aston Villa beat Manchester United led by coach Moyes 3-0 in the game.

Ibrahimović, Shinji Kagawa and Mane scored in the first and second halves. Manchester United's first appearance in the post-Ferguson era was slapped to the ground by the new Premier League supremacy Aston Villa.

Won the 2013 Community Shield Cup, which is also the fifth championship trophy won by Aston Villa this year and crowned the five crowns.

A week later, in the opening match of the Premier League in the 2013/2014 season, Aston Villa defeated his old friend Arsenal in a three-to-one away game.

After the game, a large number of Arsenal fans were stranded and unwilling to leave at the Emirates Stadium. They raised banners in protest.

The anger of Arsenal fans is not only because of the team being slaughtered by Aston Villa again, but also because of the team's weakness and ‘deception’ in the transfer market.

Arsenal, which claims to have a transfer fee of 70 million pounds, has so far the only signings are Flamini's free transfer from AC Milan, and the visa-free Sanogo, and the Italian goalkeeper Viviano To join on loan.

The rumored £70 million has not been spent by a single son so far.

In particular, Higuain, who was said to be coming to London for medical examination on the second day, appeared in the medical examination room in Naples and was soon announced by Naples officials to join Higuain, which greatly stimulated the anger of Arsenal fans. .

Arsenal fans are indeed used to the club’s inaction in the transfer market for a long time. It stands to reason that they would not be so angry. However, the problem is that this year’s incident has been spread with noses and eyes, but in the end it was this kind of "medical examination room disappearing door" incident. , Not very harmful, but very insulting.

Two weeks later, the UEFA Super Cup was played at the Monaco II Stadium.

Last season's UEFA Champions League champion Aston Villa faced last season's UEFA Cup champion Chelsea.

Chelsea are also enthusiastically signing in this summer. In addition to the introduction of Brazilian winger William for 32 million pounds, they also spent 21 million Euros from the Bundesliga to introduce young German star Schurler.

In addition, Chelsea also signed Dutch hope star Van Kinkel from Carlos Tevez in the Dutch League and exempted the free agent Eto'o. The team's strength has been greatly improved and supplemented this summer.

The London media said before the match that the European Super Cup match with Aston Villa was a touchstone for testing this ‘new’ Chelsea.

In the end, Aston Villa relied on Lewandowski's two goals, Ibrahimovic's first pass and a goal from the substitute Vardy, four to two at the Monaco II Stadium. Defeated Chelsea and used practical actions to tell everyone how powerful they are.

After winning the European Super Cup, this is also the sixth championship trophy won by Aston Villa in 2013. The most popular team in football has officially crowned the sixth crown.

...

"Now, for this Aston Villa, they are short of the Club World Cup. If they can win the Club World Cup in December, Aston Villa will officially Crowned to the Seven Crowns, this is the first seven crowns team in the history of European football!"-"Team News".

On the second day of Aston Villa winning the six crowns of the European Super Cup, UEFA held the 2013/2014 UEFA Champions League group stage draw.

As the defending champion of the Champions League, Aston Villa was finally in the same group with the top four teams in the Champions League last season, the Bundesliga giants Dortmund, the Serie A runner-up last season Naples and the French giants Marseille, and the outside world has also commented on this. The group is a well-deserved death group.

On September 2, 2013, the 2013 summer transfer window was officially closed.

Aston Villa in the transfer market this summer, it turned out to be zero signings in the end. In terms of transfers, only Thornton moved to join his old club Inter Milan, and South Korean player Sun Xingmin renewed the Hamburg team. The Chinese players who had been playing in the Aston Villa reserve team last season were hired by Aston Villa to play for the Ibiza team in La Liga for one year.

Aston Villa, which has been buzzing in every transfer market in previous years, has performed very quietly this summer.

However, everyone knows that keeping the stars such as Modric and Mane, the team maintains stability, this is the best performance of this newly-promoting giants team to start to giants 2.0.

On September 2nd, the Aston Villa official website had an announcement in the corner.

The Aston Villa U16 youth team signed the 14-year-old French player Kylian Mbappé from the AS Bondi youth team in France. Aston Villa paid the AS Bondi club a one-time payment of 250,000 euros For the training fee, he obtained the ownership of this young player.

The announcement in this corner did not arouse too many people’s attention. Even Aston Villa fans did not pay attention to it, that is, some die-hard fans who often follow the youth team only understand a little bit: Oh, our youth team Signed a talented little guy from France, that's all for UU Reading www.uukanshu.com.

...

On October 1, 2013, New Villa Park Stadium.

Previously, Aston Villa and Ibiza had a warm-up match on this newly rebuilt new stadium, which was also a test match after the new stadium was completed.

Today's game is the first official game in the true sense after the completion of the Villa Park Stadium.

This is the UEFA Champions League group match between Aston Villa at home and Serie A giants Naples.

Thirty-one minutes into the game, the score on the court was still zero to zero.

Aston Villa launched an offensive frontcourt.

Aston Villa’s attack is extremely fast and the football runs smoothly. From the center to the left, then to the center, and then to the right, a hole was torn from the Naples defense.

It's James Rodríguez who has the ball in the front court.

Seeing Hamei taking the ball, Ibrahimovic, who was in the penalty area, turned around and ran out of the penalty area while raising his hand for the ball.

Hamei's football was passed over in due course.

Ibrahimović received the football!

"Ibrahimović! Be careful of the Naples defender!" the commentator yelled. Ibrahimović’s recent state is really hot. The Premier League has played six rounds, and Ibrahimovic has already entered. It took five balls.

Before the game, the Italian media specially reminded Naples coach Mazzari to be careful of Ibrahimovic.

Mazzari obviously also knows the horror of Ibrahimovic well, and specifically explained the key defensive strategies and tactics against Ibrahimovic before the game.

At this time, seeing Ibrahimović received a pass from Hamei, Naples' defense was immediately on the verge of an enemy.
