Fang Jue carefully studied the video material of the young Dutch player recommended by scout Hollis.

Kevin. Stroman, this is a strong young midfielder who reaches a height of 186cm.

Strong and may be a little less flexible.

However, this kid has a good vision and has a good ability to move the ball.

And what satisfied Fang Jue the most was that this kid worked very the court.

He can be seen running at all ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

Well, such a player is very much in line with Fang Jue's Aston Villa's temperament.

Stroman played mainly in left midfield at Sparta Rotterdam.

However, after Fang Jue watched the video of the game of this young Dutch player, he concluded that this player is actually more suitable for playing in the back.

To his relief, the system is also similar to what he saw as a hero.

Fang Jue immediately made a decision, he must win this player!

With Fang Jue's current coffee position, the introduction of such a 20-year-old player in the Eredivisie no longer requires him to go out in person.

Fang Jue informed Hollis that the club had decided to bring in Stroman, and the team's general manager, Byron, would come forward to negotiate with Sparta Rotterdam.

Hollis's Mune is very happy and for a scout, the player they have been following has been spotted by the club and decided to bring it in, which is the biggest recognition of their work.

It is also the embodiment of the value of scouting.

……

Stroman's introduction doesn't need Fang Jue to worry too much, he has this confidence, this young man will definitely come to his bowl.

Now, being favored by Fang Jue, this has been recognized as the greatest affirmation and praise for a young player.

Many young people are proud to be able to play under Fang Jue.

And with Aston Villa's current status, digging a young man in the Eredivisie is very big.

That's the impact of Aston Villa's Premier League title.

Champions and honors are confidence and qualifications!

Fang Jue is focusing on the upcoming first round of the Premier League.

A day later, Aston Villa will host West Ham United.

In fact, the Premier League's opener is set to kick off this evening.

Aston Villa are the late fixtures of the first round of the Premier League.

Fang Jue watched Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League opener at Manchester City in front of the TV.

After only watching half of the game, Fang Jue turned off the TV.

City's performance disappointed him.

Wielding a cheque book, Manchester City, who have brought in Quaresma, Kolarov, Balotelli and Boateng this summer, have played a lackluster and not fluent.

This is also a hidden danger of the big recruitment, the team is very different from last season, and Mancini needs to rebuild the team.

I don't know what kind of bad luck I suffered, but Tottenham, who suffered the tragic destruction of the central midfielder, played quite reluctantly.

The whole team defends back.

It seems that he has made up his mind to get a point at home and is satisfied.

In the end, the score of this game was 0-0.

Manchester City's luxurious attacking line did not break through the remnants of Tottenham Hotspur's goal.

……

However, a game played a little later made Fang Jue vigilant.

Chelsea thrashed West Bromwich Albion 6-0 at home.

Drogba scored a hat-trick and a kneel in celebration.

Malouda scored twice and Frank Lampard also netted.

The next day, the media was full of praise for Chelsea.

"The aftermath of the World Cup, the players are older, the transfer market is inactive, and the pre-season warm-up is a losing streak...... Everyone was worried about Chelsea's prospects for the new season, but the likes of Carlo Ancelotti, Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard and others quickly proved to fans and media alike that the Blues were still as strong as last season, nay, even stronger. —The Times.

In fact, when looking ahead to the new Premier League season, the English media has been quite critical and skeptical of both teams.

One was Chelsea, with the Blues letting go of the likes of Belletti, Ballack, Carvalho and Joe Cole.

It's just that Ramires was brought in from Benfica and Benayoun was brought in from Liverpool, two famous players.

Plus the aging of the lineup.

The media has put a question mark over Chelsea's new season.

The sluggish and poor form of Chelsea and Aston Villa at the Charity Shield seemed to back up the media's assertions.

Yes, another team that has been put a question mark by the media is Aston Villa.

Aston Villa sold Quaresma and Petrov as two midfielders.

Luke Young, Wilfred. Bauma leaves.

At the critical moment, he sent Riocock to Tottenham Hotspur.

In addition, the departures of Ruud van Nistelrooy and David Beckham will also directly weaken Aston Villa's strength this year.

In this case, in terms of recruitment, Aston Villa only introduced the veteran Ballack and the biggest 'parallel import' in Chelsea history, Szepchenko, two famous stars.

Ballack is still recovering from an injury and will not be able to return to the pitch until at least September, and his form after recovery is difficult to secure.

Rodriguez, who bought from Colombia, was also loaned out because he could not get a labor certificate.

Then there are Kyle Walker and Danny Rose, two young players in England who are not yet well-known.

In the eyes of the media, Aston Villa floated after winning the championship, and compared with last season, the strength has decreased significantly.

……

The media in Manchester and the media in London cheered on Manchester United and Arsenal.

The Manchester Evening News says this is a great opportunity for United to regain lost ground.

The Guardian says Arsene Wenger's side have a chance to reclaim their lost title this season.

Fang Jue wondered.

Saying that his Aston Villa reinforcements are not effective and their strength is declining?

Manchester United and Arsenal are on the rise?

Manchester United only brought in defender Chris Smalling from Fulham and a small Mexican man from Guadalajara.

Even the unknown player named Bebe, Manchester United spent 7 million pounds, and it is even said that Ferguson never watched Bebe play, but only signed Bebe on Queiroz's recommendation.

This old man doesn't look like he's hanging up, so you can be sure that this is a genius?

What a joke.

Therefore, it is no wonder that the English media has always suspected that there is something unclear behind Babe's high-priced introduction.

As for Arsenal.

Arsene Wenger, who is a thrifty family, has made a couple of good deals, at least in the eyes of the media.

The professor from his hometown in France, using his charm, exempted Chamak from a visa.

Koscielny was also brought in from Ibiza.

Defender Squeiraci was brought in from Sevilla.

Got a guy from Brazil called Wellington. Silva's players.

Then it was Petrov who bought from Aston Villa.

Tsk, after thinking about it like this, a thrifty professor really spends a little money to do big things.

In Fang Jue's opinion, Arsenal's strength has always been very good, at least Arsenal's configuration last season was better than when he first took over Aston Villa.

Fang Jue reminded himself in his heart, and even wrote a note in his diary that he should be careful of Arsenal.

If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens.

Be prepared.

……

August 16, 2010.

Birmingham, Villa Park, Aston Villa host West Ham United.

Last season, West Ham United, who had hoped to qualify for European competition, ended up in fourth from the bottom and narrowly avoided relegation.

Coach Zola also had to step down, and he was replaced by manager Grant who had led Chelsea to the Champions League final.

After Grant took office, West Ham was "purged": a number of 'parallel import' players such as Ilan, Middo and Franco were swept away.

At the same time, the team has made effective additions in personnel. They brought in Hitzelsperg from Lazio on a free transfer and Barella from UNAM in Mexico for £4 million.

And New Zealand defender Winston Reid is also in their camp.

In addition, Grant has also loaned out Piquione and Ben Haim, who worked together at Portsmouth last season.

In fact, judging from the situation last season, West Ham lacked not personnel, but fighting spirit. If confidence and cohesion can be instilled in the team, West Ham still have a good future.

Therefore, Fang Jue decided to completely crush the fighting spirit of West Ham United in the first round of the league......
