Fang Jue was reading the newspaper.

Now, after the end of a game like this one.

Fang Jue has rarely seen the post-match media praise of Aston Villa.

He's looking at the media reports about Arsenal.

For Arsenal, who had just been ravaged by his own team, Fang Jue was very concerned.

The Daily Star gave Arsenal's assessment of the performance in this game as "exactly the same old story".

The Times, on the other hand, commented on "Groundhog Day".

"Groundbag Day" is a film about an infinite loop, meaning that Arsenal keeps looping the plot of being beaten up by Aston Villa.

The Daily Telegraph commented that "there is no way back", believing that Arsenal must bring in reinforcements, must spend money, and must reform, otherwise there is a dead end.

The Metro's commentary was "confused and uneasy", with a picture of Arsene Wenger's momentary confusion as he looked at the empty Aston Villa manager's seat.

i Sport commented: "Are the Gunners and Arsene Wenger done? ”

The Daily Mail used the phrase "spineless!" on the front page of sports. The word commented on Arsenal's fiasco.

The Daily Mirror said relatively blandly that "Aston Villa has bloodied Arsenal again, and the annual repertoire is retained".

The Guardian commented that "Wenger lost to Fang Jue again", with the picture of Fang Jue sitting in the stands and watching the game.

Fang Jue shook his head.

These media like to fall into the trap.

He can imagine that his 'old friend' Arsene Wenger must be in a bad mood right now.

"Arsena, I've already criticized the lads, five to zero, it's too much." Fang Jue picked up his mobile phone and made a gesture to call Wenger, "If you want to blame the FA for this incident, if I were in the dugout, this would definitely not happen." ”

Then, he turned to Papa and asked, "Is it okay for me to say that?" ”

"The professor will break up with you." Papa couldn't help but laugh and said.

"Forget it." Fang Jue shook his head, he was kind, if his kindness was misunderstood, it would be bad.

Papa snorted Fang Jue, meaning not to be funny.

……

In the 11th round of the Premier League, Aston Villa defeated Norwich City 2-1 at home.

The Danish kid Bendtner started this game, which was also the first time that Bendtner got a start since joining Aston Villa.

And Bendtner did not live up to Fang Jue's trust, with the Danish striker scoring a brace in the game and was the biggest contributor to Aston Villa's home win.

After the game, the media once again discussed Fang Jue's 'magic'.

'We all know what it was like when Bendtner left Arsenal, and now, more than two months after coming to Aston Villa, we seem to see a completely new Bendtner, to be exact, the Danish kid who was so talented before, is back. - The Times, which focuses on Fang Jue's ability to develop young players.

The Guardian threw the question at Arsenal, asking the question: Was Arsenal's decision to drop Bendtner too hasty?

The following match day 4 of Group F of the Champions League.

Aston Villa thrashed Marseille 4-0 at home.

Klose and Luis Suarez gave Aston Villa a two-goal lead in the first half.

In the second half, Bale assisted Bentner, who came on as a substitute, to score a goal and complete a hat-trick of assists.

In the final moments of the game, Ronaldo's curling shot broke through the goal guarded by Marseille goalkeeper Mandanda, and the score was fixed at 4-0.

At the end of the fourth round of the group stage, Aston Villa won all four games and accumulated 12 points, ranking first in the group.

Marseille have six points from two wins and two losses, ranking second in Group F.

Borussia Dortmund have three points from one win and three losses, and are in third place.

Olympiacos has three points from one win and three losses, ranking at the bottom of the group.

With 12 points, Aston Villa are nine points ahead of third-placed Borussia Dortmund, and with two games left in the group stage, Aston Villa has reached the last 16 of the Champions League two rounds ahead of schedule.

In addition, Aston Villa are six points ahead of second-placed Marseille and have a two-legged double win over Marseille.

Aston Villa have all but secured a spot at the top of the group.

As last season's European treble, especially the Champions League, many of Aston Villa's players have become sweethearts and are coveted by other big teams.

On Fang Jue's desk, from time to time, there will be faxes of inquiries from other clubs asking for players from Aston Villa, or even direct faxes of quotations.

The day after the Champions League group stage match against Marseille, Aston Villa received a fax.

Unlike previous faxes, this time the question was not about Aston Villa's treble last season, but about a new signing who joined Aston Villa just over two months ago.

The fax came from the new Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain.

The target player they asked was...... Nicholas. Bendtner.

This was indeed a target candidate that surprised Fang Jue.

Bendtner has just joined Aston Villa for just over two months, and he was almost swept away at Arsenal before.

However, Fang Jue thought about it carefully, and he was not too surprised.

After all, Bendtner's performance during this period is really eye-catching.

On October 15, in the eighth round of the English Premier League, Aston Villa's away match against Manchester City was the beginning of Bendtner's wonderful performance.

With Aston Villa down 1-2, Fang Jue sent Bendtner.

The Dane kid scored two goals and provided an assist in his time off the bench to dominate a comeback that helped Aston Villa win the game 4-2.

Bendtner also scored in the subsequent away Champions League game against Marseille, his first Champions League goal for Aston Villa.

Then came the 11th round of Premier League clash between Aston Villa and Norwich, with Bendtner scoring twice to help the team win 2-1.

In the second leg of the Champions League group stage against Marseille, Bendtner also scored a goal.

In less than a month, Bendtner has scored six goals and provided one assist in his four appearances.

On Aston Villa's side, Bendtner's wonderful performance did not cause more heated discussions, mainly because Aston Villa have more players who have performed well.

Gareth. Bale, Suarez, Klose, Ronaldo......

Around these players, the brilliance of Bendtner's outstanding performance was naturally weakened.

In particular, the local media in Birmingham, the official Birmingham club, are creating a public opinion offensive for Bale to compete for this year's FIFA Ballon d'Or, which has caused Bendtner's outstanding performance to win the attention and applause that has been weakened a lot.

Fang Jue's first reaction was that there were smart people in Grand Paris.

This new Ligue 1 club has a slightly different style from Manchester City.

Manchester City rarely focus on young players, more targeting established stars.

Although Bendtner is not a rookie, because of his failure experience in the later stages of Arsenal, coupled with his youth, he can actually still be regarded as a young man who 'works the road to success', and a young man who has taken a detour.

Manchester City are not going to look at Bendtner now.

However, Grand Paris took a fancy to Bendtner.

This is the subtle difference between the two local tyrants' team building ideas.

Also brandishing a checkbook, Grand Paris is not only about becoming a famous star, but also talented young people, 'young and old'.

Of course, this is also a big gap between the attraction of top players in Ligue 1 and the Premier League, even if Paris is rich, it is difficult to poach top superstars, so it will target young people with talent and potential.

And, obviously, Grand Paris is smart.

Fang Jue is good at developing and transforming young players.

Bendtner, under Fang Jue's hands, walked out of the haze and began to bloom.

At this time, it is obviously the most appropriate time to start with Bendtner, who has been personally adjusted and transformed by Fang Jue.

Want to take advantage of me?

No way!

Fang Jue directly asked the club to reject the big Paris side.

The reason is straightforward: Bendtner is an important member of Aston Villa, not for sale!

This is not nonsense.

For Fang Jue, Bendtner is indeed not for sale at this stage.

For Bendtner, Fang Jue's attitude has always been very clear, the Danish kid is a troublemaker, and there is a great chance that he will be put into the transfer market to cash out in the future.

Now the Danish kid has just been transformed, and it is the period of appreciation, and he definitely can't sell it now.

Future?

If Grand Paris is still interested in the future, Fang Jue welcomes this kind of buyer who is not bad for money.

……

A day later, FIFA announced the 23-man squad for the 2011 FIFA Ballon d'Or.

Aston Villa, winners of the 2011 Premier League, English League Cup and Champions League and treble, have six players in the 23-man squad.

Aston Villa's number one star and Premier League number one Gareth. Bale leads the six Aston Villa players.

The 2010 Ballon d'Or top three Lionel Messi, Xavi and Andres Iniesta led Barcelona's five players.

Real Madrid's squad is second only to Barcelona, with Cristiano Ronaldo leading the three.

In this 23-man squad, Bale, who won UEFA Man of the Year, and Messi, who has won the Ballon d'Or for two consecutive years, are undoubtedly the two biggest favorites.

In addition, one of Cristiano Ronaldo, Xavi and Iniesta is also a strong contender for the top three in the eyes of the media.

The players who have been selected for the 23-man squad for Aston Villa are, Gareth. Bale, Luka Modric, Senderos, Clement, Deisler, Suarez.

Yes, Deisler, who has already announced his retirement, is also in the 23-man squad.

He was selected as the former captain of Aston Villa.

This is the first time that the FIFA Ballon d'Or has included a retired player in the selection squad.

However, the media and fans generally recognized FIFA's approach.

Aston Villa was last season's treble winning team, Deisler was the captain of Aston Villa at the time, and was a big contributor to Aston Villa's treble, whether it is fame, strength or stadium performance, they all deserve to be selected.

Barcelona's five selected players are Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Alves, Cesc Fabregas.

Real Madrid's trio includes Cristiano Ronaldo, Iker Casillas and Karim Benzema.

In addition to Aston Villa, Barcelona and Real Madrid, 14 people have joined forces.

The other three teams contributed two players each: Bayern Munich's Muller and Schweinsteiger, Manchester United's Wayne Rooney and Nani, and Inter Milan's Sneijder and Forlan.

In addition, Manchester City's Sergio Aguero and Anzhi's Samuel Eto'o of the Russian Premier League have also been named in the 23-man squad.

A big highlight on the list is Neymar of Brazilian giants Santos (2011 Copa Libertadores), who is the only player selected who is not a European team.

The 2011 FIFA Ballon d'Or will be voted for by national team managers, captains and the media.

On December 5, FIFA will officially announce the final three-man shortlist.

The grand prize and the 2011 FIFA Ballon d'Or will be announced on 9 January 2012.

In addition, FIFA also announced the 10-man shortlist for the best manager.

Fang Jue, Bosque, Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho, Alex Ferguson, Villas-Boas, Loew, Arsene Wenger and other coaches were all shortlisted.

Fang Jue was also named in the FIFA Manager of the Year squad in 2009, when he led Ibiza to the miracle of Ibiza in La Liga, and in 2010, when he won the Double in his first season in charge of Aston Villa.

However, in the end, Fang Jue was not awarded the FIFA Head Coach of the Year.

In 2009 he lost to Pep Guardiola, who led Barcelona to Champions League glory.

In 2010, Fang Jue lost to Jose Mourinho, who led Inter Milan to a six-time title.

After losing twice in a row to the head coach of the Champions League winning team and missing out on the best of the year, Fang Jue was once again shortlisted as the champion coach of the Champions League.

For the first time, he also overtook Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho, Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola and Spanish national team coach Bosque as the favourites to compete for the 2011 FIFA Manager of the Year award.

However, in the senior management meeting of Aston Villa club, as well as the communication within the club, Fang Jue made it clear to the other senior management of the club and the players.

It doesn't matter if he wins Manager of the Year or not.

At this stage, Aston Villa's most important task is to cheer for Bale and help the Welsh kid compete for the FIFA Ballon d'Or.

Aston Villa's players also began to speak out, and when facing media interviews, they never forgot to praise their teammate Bale and 'pull votes' for Bale.

Fang Jue also gave an order within the team, the team on the offensive end, as much as possible around Bale to attack, without affecting the team's overall offensive operation, as much as possible to create more opportunities for Bale to score and perform.

In the 12th round of the league, Aston Villa defeated Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 away.

Bale made one pass and one shot in the game.

Fang Jue said after the game: Look, this is the performance of the FIFA Golden Ball players.

In the fifth round of the Champions League Group F group stage, Aston Villa defeated Dortmund 3-1 at home.

Bale scored a penalty in the game.

Fang Jue shouted for his proud fan at the press conference: No surprise, in the past year, Bale was the best in football.

In the thirteenth round of the English Premier League, Aston Villa defeated Swansea City 1-0 away.

Bale's free-kick set up Klose for the winning goal.

German veteran Klose: Bale's passing is always comfortable, this is the level of a Golden Ball player.

Fang Jue: Klose is right!
