Chapter 1015 Bully: Vera Monthly Pass)
Kaka's joining Aston Villa has aroused heated discussions in the global media.
The Brazilian superstar joined Aston Villa as free agent, and AC Milan had already broken up peacefully with Kaka at the end of June.
At the time of the interruption last season, AC Milan, with a poor record, is likely to miss the Champions League for the first time in recent years.
Milan has 'suspended and frugal' announced that if Milan misses the European game next season, all players will have a 20% salary cut, including Kaka.
Kaka has chosen to cut his salary in order to join Milan. His salary is now 4.5 million euros. If he reduces his salary by 20%, his annual salary will be 3.6 million.
Considering Kaka's huge commercial value and considering Kaka can attract a large amount of sponsorship, such salary is too sluggish for players with influence like Kaka.
According to the media later, perhaps Kaka might have considered continuing to cut salary and was willing to stay in Milan, but the problem is that Kaka is not alone. He has his team and he has his family. Rumors, especially Kaka's father, is trying his best to oppose this.
In the end, AC Milan missed the Champions League in the new season, and Kaka's agent team announced that it had triggered the clause of "determination without euros", which directly avoided the possibility of staying in Milan to play football with a salary cut.
Subsequently, Kaka's agency team has been seeking to operate Kaka to play football in Orlando, and the Major League of America offered an annual salary of 6.5 million euros.
In fact, Kaka has been hesitating. He is hesitant about staying away from Europe at the age of 32 and going to the United States to play football newspapers.
At this time, Fang Jue's invitation, and finally brought Ronaldinho and Ronaldo to lobby, finally made Kaka decide to come to Aston Villa.
"Ronaldinho and Ronnie told me that Villa is a magical team. Mr. Fang Jue is like he has magic. I will never regret it when I come to Villa. I am looking forward to it." Kaka said at the appearance ceremony of Aston Villa.
Aston Villa held a grand welcome ceremony for the former World Footballer. About 20,000 fans came to the New Villa Park Stadium to welcome Kaka's franchise.
The enthusiasm of the fans also made Aston Villa's senior executives very proud.
In addition to considering competitive factors, Kaka's own huge influence and the economic benefits that this huge influence can bring are also highly valued by the club.
As soon as Kaka's No. 22 jersey was launched, it caused a rush from fans.
On the Internet, Kaka's Aston Villa jersey sales inventory was also sold out.
The last player who joined Villa was called Ronaldinho, and the two above were Beckham and Ronaldo.
...
After playing the third round of the Premier League, it will be a two-week international match day.
Aston Villa can now be said to be the top international player in the Premier League, and the entire first team has been almost drawn by various national teams.
Fang Jue was even forced to draw more than 20 players from the reserve team and the youth team before he could barely get together for training in the first team.
Zhang Yang, Yang Fan and Liu Changan's performances in the youth team attracted Fang Jue's special attention.
Zhang Yang performed well in the youth team and has grown into the absolute main force of the U19 youth team. The connection between him and Gallish is one of the youth team's offensive weapons.

Yang Fan and Liu Changan are also getting closer and closer to the position of the main players of the youth team.
What surprised Fang Jue the most was Kevin Lee, the big man who recommended himself to join Aston Villa, now has many outstanding performances in the youth team. Although he is not the main force of the youth team, he is already an important rotation player of this Villa U19 youth team.
This is something Fang Jue admires. You should know that this kid has never received any professional football training before. At most, he was born as a wild football player. It can be said that he is quite good to have such great progress.
Seeing this kid sweeping and interception in the midfield like a human-shaped tank, Fang Jue was also very impressed. If this body and physical fitness can continue to improve in such a range, the future will be promising.
On September 13, 2014, in the fourth round of the Premier League, Aston Villa faced Liverpool at Anfield Stadium. This game was also one of the two focus battles in this round of the Premier League.
Another focus battle was between Arsenal and Manchester City.
...
At Anfield Stadium, the game has been starting fifteen minutes.
"Lewandowski! He received a straight pass from Sanchez and successfully shot offside!"
"One to zero! Aston Villa leads away!"
"It's so sharp, this is Aston Villa's counterattack speed!"
After the game started, Liverpool frequently put pressure on Aston Villa's goal with cheering from home fans. It can be said that the offensive was fierce for a while, but he never gained anything. Instead, Aston Villa's counterattack succeeded in a sneak attack.
Liverpool coach Rodgers frowned. The team took the initiative at the beginning, but lost the ball because of a counterattack from his opponent, which was a blow to morale.
He walked to the sidelines and shouted the name of the team captain Gerald, signaling the team to stabilize the position and not be affected by the concealment of the ball and continue to attack.
That's right, Rodgers' tactic today is offense, and defense is not Liverpool's strengths. He wants to compete with Aston Villa in offense.
The game continues.
Rogers noticed the changes in Aston Villa.
After leading by 1-0, Aston Villa did not continue to play defensive counterattack tactics, which made Rodgers feel relieved. After all, Aston Villa's defense is very good. If Aston Villa is dedicated to playing defensive counterattacks, Liverpool would be very uncomfortable.
However, while breathing a sigh of relief, Rogers had new troubles.
Aston Villa is now starting to play ball control on the court.
The existence of attacks like Mane, Modric, Pogba, De Bruyne and Sanchez makes Aston Villa's midfield and frontcourt highly technical.
Yes, Clement was absent due to injury in this game today, and Fang Jue was out of the double midfielder combination of Modric and Pogba.
Then Mane is on the left, De Bruyne is on the right, Sanchez is in the center, and Lewandowski is on the front.
...
As long as the football is controlled by Aston Villa, they will deal with the Liverpool people slowly.
Liverpool players have tried to press, but it is obvious that Aston Villa has been prepared for pressing, so they always pass the ball continuously and will not let the football stay under a certain player's feet for too long.
Liverpool people ran with football, but they were a little discouraged to find that this was useless and had no rewards except for exhausting physical strength.
"Hey, Aston Villa played very much like Barcelona's style today." Leinker said, "Is this a new tactic created by Fang Jue for Aston Villa?"
"Sanchez and De Bruyne, these two players are delicate in their skills, which is the guarantee that Aston Villa can play passes and controls, especially Sanchez, who is very familiar with passes and control tactics." John Motson said.
Rodgers gave the players another order, don't be anxious, don't panic, keep your foot steady, and don't fight blindly. Pay attention to science and save energy.
This sentence seems to be true.
However, in fact, it is basically empty talk and the players have no idea how to deal with it.
Rodgers was also very upset on the sidelines.
It can be said that when Aston Villa attacked, all Liverpool could do was to defend and then rely on their opponents to pass mistakes. However, this situation rarely occurs. The result is that the football is firmly controlled by Aston Villa, and their offense can always get a shot.
In this case, Liverpool players are both impatient and helpless.
Under this emotion, the angry voice of Liverpool players gradually increased. The foul movements on the court became increasingly fierce, and the whistle of referee Dean sounded frequently.
After the game was thirty-five minutes, four Liverpool players had received yellow cards.
Only Kyle Walker received a yellow card for Aston Villa.
...
Finally, Rodgers made an adjustment and arranged for Liverpool's midfielder to focus on pressing Modric.
Modric is the core of Aston Villa's organization. As long as he is running poorly, Aston Villa's offense will be curbed.
This was the 41st minute of the game, with Gerald and Henderson pressing Modric together.
Modricilla's ball turned around and passed it to Pogba.
Pogba was immediately pressed by Larana.
The French knocked the football back to Thiago Silva.
Then, Silva passed the ball to Modric.
As soon as Modric got the ball, Coutinho rushed over. He pulled the ball and turned around and tried to pass the ball, but he broke through diagonally. Henderson rushed over and Modric made a move to pass the ball again.
Henderson ignored it.
However, Modric really passed the ball this time.
Pogba was the one who received the ball.
When Pogba stopped the ball, he took the opportunity to avoid Larana who was robbing.
Then he quickly sent the football out.
The person who received the football this time was Mane.
Mane dribbled the ball on the left and rushed at high speed. At the same time, Aston Villa's midfielder who was still slowing down his feet and passing the ball back and forth was like a track and field player who heard the starting gun and rushed to Liverpool's half.
Liverpool coach Rodgers was shocked!
He immediately realized the crisis.
Mane dribbled the ball along the wing at high speed. After attracting the attention of several Liverpool defensive players, he knocked the ball to Sanchez who came to pick up the ball.
Sanchez turned the ball, dribbled the ball horizontally, and cooperated with De Bruyne in a wall-to-wall style. After receiving the football again, he made a move to get up and enter the penalty area, but he dunked the football back and suddenly picked up his toes!
...
Pick the pass!
"Offside!" Liverpool's player immediately raised his hand.
Lewandowski, who was in an offside position, did not run at all. On the contrary, he slowly walked towards his own half, and the smart Lewandowski did not participate in the attack.
Then people saw that De Bruyne successfully counterattacked. He received a pick pass from Sanchez and made a slight adjustment. Facing Liverpool goalkeeper Miniole who was attacking, he directly made a cross from the middle!
At this time, Lewandowski suddenly turned around and ran towards the door.
De Bruyne's football came over.
Lewandowski withstood the hasty Sarco, turned around and shot the ball into the net.
“Gooooooooooaaaaal!”
"Lewandowski! Lewandowski! Robert Lewandowski, he scored twice!!!" John Motson shouted, "It's so beautiful. Aston Villa's attack is so beautiful. Their pass and cut are smooth and smooth. De Bruyne assisted Lewandowski to score a goal."
"After forty-two minutes of the game, Aston Villa, who played away at Anfield, has already led Liverpool by two goals!"
"For the first goal, Sanchez gave Lewandowski an assist. This time it was Sanchez's exquisite pass to instigate the offensive. De Bruyne assisted Lewandowski. After the Chilean joined Aston Villa, they played better and better in one game."
Fang Jue applauded on the sidelines. He was satisfied with Lewandowski's second score and even more satisfied with Sanchez's outstanding performance.
The Chilean is not tall, but he is full of fighting spirit and always runs physically, runs, catches and passes the ball on the court.
Moreover, because of his low size, Sanchez has a low center of gravity, possesses typical superb foot skills of South American players, fast speed, strong ball control and breakthrough ability, and excellent individual combat skills. Such a player is a player who can change the results of the game alone.
What satisfied Fang Jue the most was that Sanchez and Mane, De Bruyne, Lewandowski in front, Modric or Pogba behind were all very well matched. This player just joined Aston Villa, but it can almost be said to be seamlessly connected with the team, which is too rare.
Rodgers' face turned ugly when he saw his team conceding another goal. His opponent was Aston Villa. He was two goals behind Aston Villa without a primary sex book in the first half. In this case, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is for Liverpool to turn the tables.
Zero to two!
Although the first half was not over, Rodgers already felt bad in his heart, and his team may have a lot of luck in this game.
Of course, it is not surprising that Liverpool lost to Aston Villa. Aston Villa is currently the well-deserved overlord of the Premier League. Although the Premier League championship was won by Manchester City last season, in everyone's opinion, the shadow of Aston Villa, who had won four consecutive Premier League titles before, is still shrouded in the giants. Unless Aston Villa cannot recover the lost ground this season, otherwise, Aston Villa's deterrence and "bullying" energy for other Premier League teams will still be there, and will even be more direct and barbaric.
Therefore, it is not unusual for Liverpool to lose to Aston Villa, but the problem is that Liverpool rose last season and ranked third in the Premier League, only three points behind Aston Villa, which injected great energy into Rodgers and the entire Liverpool team. In this case, losing to Aston Villa at Anfield Stadium, and even falling behind by two goals in less than halftime, is quite eye-catching, making Rodgers feel that he can't accept it: he has no face!
