The Glory of the Godfather

Chapter 520: Devil schedule

"Okay, kids, let your dad take a break." Victoria drove away the children who were playing around with Beckham.

She and Beckham now have three children. The eldest son Brooklyn is ten years old, the second son Romeo is seven years old, and the younger son Cruze is only four years old.

After the children left, Victoria asked her husband how it was like training on the first day of the day.

"Not bad." Beckham said, "There are Luther, and some lads from the national team."

"Dessler and others are also known."

Victoria noticed her husband's relaxed attitude when speaking, and was obviously in a good mood.

"Going back to play in Europe has finally fulfilled your wish." Victoria's tone was somewhat dissatisfied.

Although she also received a lot of resource benefits and nodded to agree with Beckham returning to Europe, Victoria still yearned for life in the United States.

Beckham smiled, didn't say anything, and didn't get angry. The old man was old and his wife, he knew his wife was only verbally complaining.

Victoria asked her husband what he thought of the young new coach.

Beckham thought for a while and said, "It's different from any coach I've been in contact with before."

"very young."

"It also looks very energetic."

"It can be seen that the players are very convinced of him."

"Luther and I were amazed when talking about coaching."

"It is indeed very capable to lead a promoted polo team to the La Liga championship."

"However, how is it going to be known? It will take a while to cooperate... So far, it's not bad."

"Yes, of course it's different. The club owner is the head coach, but he is the first in football." Victoria said.

"It has nothing to do with him as the boss. The players admire him, only victory and results." Beckham said.

"You seem to admire him?" Victoria asked.

"Maybe." Beckham shrugged.

Victoria gave her husband a blank look and went out.

After a while, he came back with a looming pink gauze skirt.

"What are you doing?"

"Didn't you say you want to have a daughter?"

Beckham sighed in his heart, but pretended to appreciate it, and rushed forward.

As long as it is a new team, Victoria will be very diligent, it seems that he is afraid that he has the energy to steal fish...

...

The evening exercise is over.

Fang Jue kissed his wife's forehead.

Changed to pajamas.

Go to the study, turn on the laptop and start working.

He is paying attention to and thinking about the team's upcoming Christmas Devil schedule.

There is no winter break in the Premier League.

Not only that, but the Christmas season is the most intensive event.

Even the stronger the team, the stronger the opponent during Christmas.

The Football Association of England arranges many strong dialogues during the Christmas season to attract and please fans.

Aston Villa will play at Stadium of Light in the 17th round of the league two days later, against Sunderland.

Then four days later, in the 18th round of the league, Aston Villa played home against Stoke City, the City of the Sky.

Next, is the most severe schedule.

On December 27th, in the 19th round of the league, he was a guest at the Emirates Stadium to face Professor Wenger's Arsenal.

On December 29, he returned to the home court. In the 20th round of the league, the opponent was the Red Army Liverpool.

Then four days later, on January 2, 2010, the first game of the New Year, the FA Cup played against Blackburn at home in the third round.

On January 9th, the 21st round of the league, a guest to face Wigan Athletic.

Four days later, in the first leg of the League Cup semi-final, Blackburn was played away.

Four days later, the 22nd round of the league played against West Ham United at home.

Then, three days later, in the second round of the League Cup semi-final, the home scene was against Blackburn.

Then, three days later, in the fourth round of the FA Cup, opponents are to be determined. Of course, this requires them to pass the third round of the FA Cup.

Then, four days later, in the 23rd round of the league, they played against Arsenal at home ~www.ltnovel.com~Three days later, in the 24th round of the league, they played away against Fulham.

From December 15th, the 17th round of the league began against Sunderland.

In a month and a half, Aston Villa will play at most twelve games, an average of less than four days.

Such a high intensity of the game really makes the players physically and mentally exhausted!

However, the FA, which arranges this schedule, also has its own wishful thinking.

As we all know, this period happens to be the Western Christmas and New Year holidays, and it also allows more people to have time to pay attention to football matches. Regardless of the number of attendees and ratings, the Premier League’s devil schedule has remained high.

The promotion of economic interests also makes the Premier League schedule more difficult than Europe.

In fact, most of the mainstream leagues other than the Premier League implement the winter break at the same time.

From the perspective of climatic factors, the British Isles, which belong to a temperate maritime climate, enjoy the "welfare" of the warm North Atlantic current all year round. This is very suitable for high-quality football games.

From the perspective of cultural heritage, Britain, the originator of modern football, has long regarded football matches as one of the important festival celebrations. Arranging games on Boxing Day (December 26) after Christmas has long become an unwritten practice in the Premier League.

In addition, in the English football league system, there are two important events, the FA Cup and the League Cup, which will inevitably affect the arrangement of the league schedule.

And if the Premier League chooses to have a winter break, then the Devil's schedule can only be arranged in the sprint phase in March and April, which is a greater test for the teams than it is now.

All in all, the Christmas Devil schedule has been fixed in this way and has become one of the important highlights of the Premier League.

Every year during the Devil's schedule, there are always upsets.

Often teams in the relegation zone will suddenly make an effort to escape, because they will directly give up the FA Cup and League Cup, taking advantage of this time to focus on the league.

Even for giants who have always had a strong bench depth, the challenge of the devil's schedule is great.

The most painful thing is the traditional powerhouse of Aston Villa. If the league wants to play, it is difficult to give up the FA Cup and League Cup directly, otherwise it cannot be explained to the fans.

For Aston Villa and Fang Jue, this is his first devil schedule to take over the team.

It is also difficult for him to make the decision to abandon the League Cup and the FA Cup.

On the one hand, the team has reached the semi-finals of the League Cup and has already reached this point. If you play three more games, you will have a chance to win the championship.

It is naturally excellent to win a championship in the first season of taking over the team.

In addition, as the club with the longest history in the Premier League, Aston Villa’s fan tradition values ​​the FA Cup, and it is not easy to give it up.

Therefore, this devil's schedule will be very difficult for Aston Villa, whose three-line combat and the thickness of the bench are much different from the giants such as Manchester United and Chelsea.

...

Two days later, in the seventeenth round of the league, Aston Villa was a guest at Sunderland in Tyne and Wear, northern England, against Sunderland.

Before the game, Sunderland's media was very optimistic. They believed that even if their opponent is the fourth-placed Aston Villa, they have the hope of scoring points and even winning.

the reason?

Now no one in Europe knows that Aston Villa is a hero of "robbing the rich and helping the poor".

As long as they have just taken points from the giants, the next round will be generous to the villagers after all.

Therefore, in the last round of the league, Aston Villa won Manchester United four to three at home. Apart from the fans of Aston Villa, the happiest thing was the fans of Sunderland.

Before the game, when the head coaches of both sides shook hands, Sunderland head coach Bruce O'Neal held Fang Jue's hand with a warm attitude.

Fang Jue even had the illusion that the old cadres led a team to send warmth to the countryside and were warmly welcomed by the village chief.

damn it.

Fang Jue knew that the other party really regarded the legend of'robbing the rich and helping the poor' as one thing.

...

In the stadium, Aston Villa's players formed a circle.

"The coach said, this game must be won." Captain Petrov said.

"Take it!" everyone shouted in a low voice.

"The coach said, can't win the game, walk back to Birmingham."

"Go back to Birmingham!" everyone shouted.

"Wrong, wrong." Abangraho said.

Everyone laughed and laughed.

"Laugh!" Dessler said, "The coach said, if he hears "robbing the rich and helping the poor" after the game, we will all be unlucky."

...

The lens gave a close-up of the VIP seats at the Stadium of Light.

Beckham and his wife, who have joined Aston Villa training, also came to the away game with their three children.

The director naturally gave this star family a close-up.

The most interesting thing is that ~www.ltnovel.com~ In the main stand of the Stadium of Light, there is a banner from Sunderland fans.

The banner said: Warm welcome to the Vera who robbed the rich and helped the poor!

Aston Villa fans in front of the TV saw this, they naturally scolded angrily.

At the same time, their hearts are playing drums.

It's not really that evil.

At the end of the first half, the score on the court was zero to zero.

Sunderland fans cheered.

The hearts of Aston Villa fans sank.

During the intermission, Fang Jue scolded all the players bloody.

"Robbery from the rich to help the poor? Does it sound good?"

"We worked so hard to beat Manchester United and Chelsea for victory, for our ranking in the standings, and for us to go to the Champions League next season."

"It's not for the hard work of grabbing points from the giants, and then playing points for other teams."

"Listen to the voices in the stands, and see how those Sunderlanders shout!"

"I tell you, I am very angry now."

"Bruce O'Neill smiled happily when I shook hands."

"Why he looks like that, you know for yourself."

"I don't want to hear that guy say'thank you for your generosity' to me at the end of the game."

"Don't want to be laughed at after the game, just win the game for me."

"Goal!"

"Continuous goals."

"Fuck Sunderland's **** fiercely!"
