Chapter 025 The Right of the Winner!
At the end of the game, Aston Villa Chairman Rena politely came to the box where Manchester City's senior management was located to congratulate them on the victory.
"Congratulations, Mr. Alfaim, Manchester City plays beautifully." Aston Villa Chairman Rena said. Although he must feel uncomfortable when he says this, the necessary etiquette is still needed.
"Thank you." Alfaim is in a pretty good mood. Aston Villa also played well, but unfortunately, there was only one winner.
Looking at the smile on the Arab's face, Aston Villa President Rena twitched the corners of his mouth, and then greeted Cook, the general manager of Manchester City Club, and left.
"He must feel good." Cook said with a smile.
After the Abu Dhabi consortium entered Manchester City, especially after Manchester City bought Zhang Yang for 7 million pounds, it caused a great uproar in the Premier League. Lerner, the one who just came to congratulate Manchester City on winning, Mr. Aston Villa, is the one who attacked Manchester City in the media. . Lerner said that Manchester City's big-handed behavior will plunge the Premier League into chaos.
"I didn't expect that this gentleman would come to congratulate us in person." Alfaim said with a smile.
"This is the gentleman's behavior in Britain." Cook joked.
"In England, we still have a lot to learn." Alphaim laughed and said, "For example, how to deal with these people."
The game between Manchester City away and Aston Villa was the latest match in the first round of the Premier League in the 2008/2009 season. The game ended, and all ten games between the 20 teams in the first round ended.
Among them, the most concerned is the match between Manchester City and Aston Villa.
Zhang Yang's performance in the game was extremely dazzling. Among Manchester City's four goals, Zhang Yang scored three goals and staged a hat-trick, Wright. Phillips' goal is also a wonderful pass from Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang's three goals are a reflection of his personal ability. Only the team's fourth goal is Zhang Yang's assist teammates to score, indicating that the tacit understanding between him and his teammates is also growing.
For Zhang Yang, in the absence of being able to integrate well into the team, hat-trick and an assist, such a debut can be called a dream level.
After the game, when the players celebrated the 'unexpected' victory, Zhang Yang was interviewed by a reporter from The Times and talked about his views on his first game in the Premier League and Manchester City.
"In the debut of Manchester City, there was a hat-trick, and the team also won a big victory. How do you feel?" A reporter from The Times asked.
Zhang Yang wiped his sweat with his jersey, with a triumphant smile on his face, and said, "Whether it's the coach or all the players, we are fully prepared for the first game. We created some opportunities in the first half and seized three of them, which laid the foundation for the victory of the whole game. In the second half, Wright's goal made us believe that the victory was in our hands. Of course, Aston Villa also performed well in the last half, but we were the victory. ! Starting a season with such a victory and a hat-trick is a pleasant thing for the team and me.
"This is your first Premier League game. Aston Villa is the first Premier League opponent you face. How does it feel to play?" The reporter then asked.
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "This is my first Premier League game. That's right. However, Aston Villa is not the first Premier League team I face. When I was in Marseille, Marseille met Chelsea in the eighth game of the Champions League."
"I'm sorry." The Times reporter also smiled, "So, how do you feel?"
"The pace of the Premier League is faster." Zhang Yang thought for a moment and said, "The style of play is more concise and clear, and the team does not attach as much importance to defense as the Serie A team. Therefore, there may be relatively more goals scored with big scores.
"At today's Villa Park Stadium, there was a real storm of goals that belonged to publicity. Can I say this?"
"Of course, don't forget what I said before the game. I want to score and the team wants to win. This is the most perfect." Zhang Yang said rudely.
Times reporter James. Wade looked at the young man who spoke rudely and suddenly became curious about Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang's current tone and performance. According to legend, Zhang Yang's character is like this, but Wade is curious about what this Manchester City No. 10 thought when he said these words. He really didn't care what people think of him? Do you mind if the media says that he is flamboyant and arrogant?
With this question in mind, James. Wade asked his own question, "Zhang, do you know that what you said just now will make Aston Villa fans dislike you very much?"
When Zhang Yang heard this question, he no longer had a smile on his face, but replied with a very serious expression, "I am now a Manchester City fan. My task is to score goals, please the fans with my excellent performance and make them happy. This is my greatest value. As for As for Aston Villa fans? Maybe they will be unhappy, but does it have anything to do with me?!"
"Uh--" James. Wade looked at Zhang Yang for a few seconds before taking a deep breath and nodding hard, "Thank you, I think I understand."
Zhang Yang also smiled. After his interview, he left.
After taking two steps, Zhang Yang looked up at the scoreboard of the Villa Park players again. On it, the score of Aston Villa's bis-4 Manchester City was so dazzling. Looking at the score and the scoreboard, his name appeared in the scorer column below the score three times, and the corners of his mouth raised a smile.
Then, under the gaze of reporters, his figure disappeared into the player's corridor at Villa Park.
"What did he mean just now? Do you taste the feeling of victory?" A local reporter in Birmingham said angrily, "It's too rude."
James. Wade looked at his Birmingham colleague and said, "That's what he meant, because in his heart, it is natural that the winner has the right to enjoy all the fruits of victory."
The local reporter from Birmingham listened to this and looked at the scoreboard unhungryly. Then he sighed and said nothing more.
The words are not rough. The winner does have such a right. You can be unhappy, but you can only watch.
After being interviewed by reporters, Zhang Yang returned to the locker room to celebrate the victory with his teammates and their good start in the 2008/2009 season.
Zhang Yang obviously felt that after this Premier League game, his teammates respected him a lot and got close to him a lot. This is not the original superficial and verbal respect, but a kind of real respect and closeness.
However, Zhang Yang also keenly felt some unnaturalness of Bojinov and Vassar. He can understand the feelings of these two people. Whether it is Bojinov or Vassar, they are the most affected players after Zhang Yang's transfer to Manchester City.
Wasser has played in Manchester City for three seasons, which is his fourth season at Manchester City. Wasser was often selected to England and participated in the 2002 World Cup and the 2004 European Cup in the heyday of Aston Villa. However, after coming to Manchester City, the subsequent 2006 World Cup in Germany, As well as the 2008 European Cup qualifiers, there is no Vassell, which can also explain the situation of the English striker, and his state is gradually declining. In the two seasons when I just came to Manchester City, I am still the absolute main force. However, his scoring ability is really average. This kind of black striker, who is not tall, fast and flexible, has a certain strength, but it is difficult to really rely on the goal of a team. Therefore, now Vasel has been completely reduced to a substitute, and the future of Manchester City is bleak.
If Wasser's future in Manchester City is bleak, there are great uncertainties about Bholdinov's future in Manchester City. In Mark Hughes's mind, he is still willing to give Bodinho a chance, and when the legendary Robinho, who wants to join the team, does not come to the team, Zhang Yang and Bodjinov's partner will also be a very important choice for Mark Hughes. However, after today's game, I saw Zhang Yang suddenly move forward, Wright. Phillips and the three generals, Peterrich, Elano and Modric, revolve around Zhang Yang's offensive performance. Mark Hughes must have more ideas in his mind, because there is a problem with the cooperation between Bodinov and Zhang Yang. At least from the warm-up match before the season, there is no call between the two.
If Vasel's strength is declining and his state is declining, then Bodinov is completely not working hard enough. In addition, his self-confidence is getting less and less. After becoming famous at a young age, he abandoned his talent. Botnov is definitely one. However, Bodinov and Zhang Yang are the same age and are only 22 years old this year. If it is useless like this, it is not necessarily true. The key lies in himself.
Looking at Sun Jihai and Wright. Phillips, Elano, Modric, Richards and others gathered around and laughed together. In celebrating the victory of the game, Bodinov and Vassell were a little disappointed. Although they also knew that they should celebrate the victory with their teammates at this time, they were in a bad mood and depressed.
While the players were celebrating crazily, Manchester City's head coach Mark. Hughes is attending the post-match press conference in the newspaper hall of Villa Park. He has been waiting for a long time, but Martin, the head coach of Aston Villa. O'Neal has never come.
Mark. Hughes waited for nearly ten minutes, Aston Villa head coach Mark. Hughes came late.
Martin. O'Neal and Mark. After Hughes shook his hand, he did not sit down, but looked at the many reporters at the scene and said, "In today's game, everyone has seen the team's performance. It's simply terrible. I apologize to the fans who came to watch the game today. In the next round of the league, everyone will see A different Aston Villa."
After that, Martin. O'Neill to his colleague Mark. After Hughes nodded and greeted, he hurried away, leaving only the stunned Mark. Hughes and more than 70 reporters at the scene, they really didn't expect Mark. Hughes had such a big reaction and left the field directly. It seems that the head coach is indeed quite angry about Aston Villa's loss.
Mark. Hughes saw Martin. O'Neal left the table, a little embarrassed, but Martin. O'Neill, as the losing party, can leave the table angrily, he Mark. Hughes was the winning side. Naturally, there was no reason to leave like this, so he had to sing a monologue alone. Of course, for such a 'one-man show', Mark. Of course, Hughes is not disgusted, and even likes it very much.
Reporters are most enthusiastic about, of course, to ask the head coach of Manchester City to evaluate Zhang Yang's performance.
Mark. Hughes spoke highly of Zhang Yang. In the face of reporters, he did not hesitate to praise him. "Zhang is a great player. He has already proved his greatness in Marseille and AC Milan. He doesn't need to prove anything to the fans and the media. What he has to do is to lead the team forward to win the game. It is a lucky thing that Manchester City can get Zhang. This will be the greatest signing in Manchester City's history. He can help us win the game, just as he did today. Being able to play a hat-trick in his debut and assist a goal is the performance of a star like Zhang Yang, who brings happiness to Manchester City fans. I believe that those who have always been critical of Zhang Yang's worth need to watch today's game and think about what they should say.
