The Glory of the Godfather

On December 11, 2010, the 17th round of the Premier League.

This round of the league has several eye-catching focus battles.

Tottenham Hotspur will face Chelsea at home, this is a London derby.

Chelsea were tied with Everton in the last round of the league. Now, the Blues are 11 points behind the league leader Aston Villa. This match with Tottenham Hotspur’s London Derby and Anchor Lottie's team has no retreat and must win.

Another focus of the game is Manchester United vs. Arsenal at Old Trafford.

At present, Manchester United is 7 points behind Aston Villa, ranking second; Arsenal and Manchester City have a total of 29 points, and Arsenal is ranked fifth because of a low goal difference.

In this game, Manchester United wants to catch up with Aston Villa, and Arsenal must work hard to return to a familiar position. The media thinks it will be a battle.

Aston Villa is playing against West Bromwich at home in this round.

This game is not a real strong dialogue, but its level of attention is even higher than those two games.

The reason is that as long as Aston Villa remains unbeaten in this round, they will tie the record of 42 unbeaten rounds in England's top league set by Nottingham Forest.

Before the match, "The Sun" cheered West Bromwich Albion: the opportunity to stop Villa from moving forward and write the name book into the history of the Premier League is here. Come on.

In this regard, West Bromwich head coach Di Matteo could not help but swear verbally, he called the "Sun" is bad intentions.

"Who are we? We are West Bromwich Albion, our goal is to relegation! Relegation! Relegation!"

"Our task is not to stop Villa, not to head-on with the league leaders, this is not what we can do."

"I'm not saying that we won't play as hard as we can, but don't give us this big hat of making history to block Vera? This is not within our ability, ah, understand?"

After Di Matteo's straightforward remarks were reported by the media, the audience laughed and gave the bald coach a lot of praise. He thought he had something to say and he was very honest.

"The Sun" is also a little confused. In the past, they hyped similar things, and the effect was very good. This time they expected West Bromwich to be praised by them, and they would beat Aston Villa desperately.

In fact, the "Sun" came up with such an issue-choosing West Bromwich ‘Flicker’ is also considered:

West Bromwich Albion is a well-known lift team in the Premier League. The strength is average. However, this team is a famous nerve knife. It often plays a good show of upset and defeats the strong team, and this team has a fierce style. It's a bit rough, and belongs to the kind of team that will be hard to get around with.

In a word, this team is suitable for playing tricks.

But he didn't expect that Di Matteo would not eat this set at all, and even cursed them.

In the end, Aston Villa defeated West Bromwich 3-1 at home with goals from Senderos, Ballack and substitute Diego Costa.

As Di Matteo said before the game, they did not play hard in this game, they also worked very hard, but the difference in strength was obvious and eventually lost.

Of course, perhaps in the eyes of some people, if West Bromwich Albion struggles with their lives, it can cause problems for Aston Villa. At least Aston Villa will not win easily three to one.

However, West Bromwich Albion has something to say, they can’t make it hard to fight with the league leaders. They are not flat-headed brothers. They will be on the Christmas schedule immediately. The team will have a three-day match. This is a match with Aston Villa. After all my life, what will happen to the next game?

Di Matteo can clearly handle it.

"42 games unbeaten! 》

The Premier League official website used such a title to congratulate Aston Villa. Aston Villa is also tied with Nottingham Forest, becoming the second longest unbeaten record in the history of England's top league after Arsenal's 49 unbeaten games. Record holder.

...

In the other two focus battles.

Chelsea were tied one by one by Tottenham Hotspur away.

From the thirteenth round of the league, Chelsea suffered a zero to three upset defeat at home at Sunderland:

In the fourteenth round of the league, Chelsea lost to Birmingham with a zero to one away game;

In the fifteenth round of the league, Chelsea was tied with Newcastle one by one away;

In the sixteenth round of the league, Chelsea was tied with Everton one by one at home;

Coupled with a one-to-one draw by London Derby opponents Tottenham Hotspur in this round of the league, Chelsea have already lost five rounds.

In the league standings, Chelsea has gone from only three points behind Aston Villa to now as many as 13 points behind Aston Villa. In the words of the media, Chelsea has been able to give up the hope of the league championship and concentrate. The Champions League is out.

In another game, Manchester United beat Arsenal 1-0. After the Red Devils won, they continued to catch up with Aston Villa, while Arsenal continued to rank fifth.

It is worth mentioning that after Manchester City won this round, the ranking once again rose to third place, and the value of the checkbooks waved by the Arabs was reflected.

...

Six days later.

In the eighteenth round of the Premier League, Fang Jue came to Nyon, Switzerland the day before the Aston Villa away game against Wigan Athletic.

He is here to participate in the UEFA 2010/2011 UEFA Champions League round 16 draw.

Before the draw ceremony, Fang Jue and Ferguson chatted for a while.

The old Scottish man asked Fang Jue if he could sell Bell to Manchester United.

Fang Jue "sarcastically" said that Bell was not for sale, and even if Bell left, Ferguson could not afford Bell. The old man asked if he could install the installments. Fang Jue really wanted to spit on the old man's face.

Turning his head, Fang Jue went to Wenger to chat. The two old men belonged to Wang but Wang.

The professor told Fang Jue with some distress that Arsenal had offered Inter Milan an offer for Coutinho, but Inter Milan refused.

Wenger said that he got news that Ferguson was also interested in Coutinho.

"The Scotsman did it on purpose. He saw that I fell in love with Coutinho, so he deliberately raised the price." The professor said angrily.

Fang Jue ‘comforted’ Wenger: Who is Ferguson, you two have been fighting for so many years, you still don’t know... He must be thinking and doing this.

Wenger agreed.

The professor sighed and said that all of a sudden several teams fell in love with Coutinho and didn't know what was going on.

"This shows that my vision is correct, and my recommendation is reliable!" Fang Jue said.

The professor nodded, once again deeply impressed.

...

At 12 o'clock noon Central European Time, the lottery ceremony officially began.

After the end of the group stage, the eight group firsts were Aston Villa, Schalke 04, Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk.

The second of the eight teams are Inter Milan, Lyon, Valencia, Copenhagen, Rome, Marseille, AC Milan and Arsenal.

The Premier League, La Liga, and Bundesliga occupy the first place in seven groups, and the teams in Serie A and Ligue 1 are second in the group.

The draw of the 1/8 finals follows the principle of avoidance with the National Football Association and the same group.

Before the draw, UEFA Secretary-General Infantino first complimented defending champion Inter Milan.

However, what is interesting is that when Infantino said this, the director gave Aston Villa head coach Fang Jue a shot, which caused a burst of laughter in front of the TV.

Infantino then introduced the situation of the teams in the spending line, particularly praising the knockout team newcomers Aston Villa, Copenhagen and Shakhtar Donetsk.

This was a pity for the bald secretary-general who was ridiculed by the fans as a lottery professional, and especially for Bobby Charlton's failure to come to the scene.

It was originally planned that Bobby Charlton would draw lots as the representative of the finalist, but he failed to arrive on time due to the heavy snowfall of Nyon.

Yes, this season’s UEFA Champions League final will be held at the New Wembley Stadium in England. Therefore, the English media are very excited and looking forward to it. They look forward to the eventual realization of the Premier League team meeting at the New Wembley Stadium. , I also look forward to a team from the Premier League that can reach the finals and win the cup.

Many old opponents were drawn together this time.

Real Madrid and Lyon, who met in the 1/8 finals last season, met again. Last season, Lyon eliminated Real Madrid.

Arsenal and Barcelona met again. The two teams met in the 1/4 finals last season. Barcelona drew with Arsenal in a two-to-two away game, and Messi scored 4 goals back home and defeated Arsenal 4-1.

Although this season after Koscielny, Chamak, Squillac and others joined, Arsenal's strength appears to be stronger, but Barcelona certainly still has an advantage.

When UEFA technical officer Marketti drew Arsenal for Barcelona, ​​Pique immediately sent a message to Fabregas on his personal social account. Pique exclaimed: "Haha...Welcome home, my brother! "

It is worth mentioning that Fabregas gave Pique’s message a thumbs up, and also said: "Nou Camp, oh..."

This incident caused quite a stir, and Wenger is said to be furious about it.

Fang Jue later called Wenger specifically, saying that if Wenger wanted to clean up the door, he was willing to help.

The professor scolded Fang Jue with bad intentions and was not a real good friend.

In addition, Inter Milan was drawn to Bayern Munich, which is a replica of last season's Champions League final, this matchup is also particularly eye-catching.

Manchester United, Chelsea, and Roma got good lots. Manchester United and Chelsea faced Marseille and Copenhagen respectively, while Roma met the weakest Shakhtar Donetsk in the group.

Aston Villa, the first in group A, www.wuxiaspot.com, was drawn to AC Milan, the second in group G.

When the result of the match came out, there was also a wow sound on the scene.

AC Milan has former AC Milan players Shevchenko and Ronaldo. In addition, Aston Villa double-killed Inter Milan in the group stage before, and poured 10 goals from the defending champion in two rounds. This time they face the international Milan's rival AC Milan, this game is full of gimmicks.

Fang Jue curled his lips. He seriously suspected that UEFA already knew that Ronaldinho would move to Aston Villa, so he came up with this.

The claim that UEFA used technical means to control the match in the lottery has long been recognized by all walks of life. If you want to argue that there are no tricks and conspiracies, it is really "too stupid and naive."

Imagine that Shevchenko, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho wore Aston Villa's burgundy jersey to visit San Siro. The attention of this game is simply overwhelming.

It's not tricky, ghosts believe it.

PS: The fourth one is asking for monthly pass and subscription, thanks.
