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 the treble.

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 surpassed 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.

In the Aston Villa club's senior management meeting, as well as the club's internal communication, Fang Jue made his position clear to the club's other senior management and 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 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!

……

November 29th.

League Cup quarter-finals.

Aston Villa host Manchester City.

There was still some time to go before the game began, and the stadium at Villa Park was already crowded.

Fans on both sides in burgundy Aston Villa shirts and blue Manchester City shirts were separated by police.

Manchester City have been on a pretty good run of momentum this season and are currently on the tight trail of Aston Villa in the league.

Had it not been for the defeat of Manchester City in the previous direct meeting between the two sides in the league, Manchester City would now be the leaders.

There has been a consensus from Manchester City that the mountain of Aston Villa must be lifted if the team is to rise.

Be sure to win Aston Villa once!

Whether it's in the Premier League or in the cup, you have to win once!

This has also made the current antagonism between the fans of both sides intensify.

Ferguson chewed gum in his mouth as he 'admired' the mutual blessings between the Aston Villa fans and Manchester City with interest.

Both teams have given him a big head.

Aston Villa have dominated the Premier League trophy for two years now.

Manchester City's strong rise in the past two seasons has also made Ferguson and Manchester United very vigilant.

At Ferguson's side were his son Ferguson Jr. and his younger brother Martin. Ferguson.

Alex Ferguson is the king of Manchester United and is revered by many fans around the world.

However, the old Scottish man still has some criticism on some things.

Ferguson seems to be particularly affectionate, and he especially likes to let his friends and family succeed by his side.

This may not be noticed in normal times, but as early as six or seven years ago, the media dug up these facts and made them public.

Maybe it's the football talent inherited from the Ferguson family, Ferguson's younger brother Martin? Alex Ferguson is the head of all of United's scouting across Europe.

And when Alex Ferguson needed an assistant coach in 2004, the difference fell to his old friend Walter. In the hands of Smith.

The Sunday Times, where another longtime friend of the Ferguson family works, McVerney, always publishes exclusive interviews with Ferguson, and this is certainly not because of how good the tabloid is.

In addition, some of the help that Ferguson gave to his son Ferguson Jr. is even more obvious, and even undisguised.

Just a month ago, the media broke the news that Jason. Ferguson helped his father arrange for Manchester United's pre-season warm-up games in the summer, earning £1.5 million.

In addition, Ferguson Jr., as Ferguson's agent, also made a lot of money in his father's contract renewal negotiations and handling media matters.

Not only that, but there have been rumours that Ferguson Jr. has been using his father's influence to sell shirts signed by Manchester United players.

Honestly, that's a bit excessive.

Some players flatly refused, saying Ferguson Jr. had no right to do so, including David Beckham, who later left Manchester United.

Other than that, some of the help Ferguson gave his son is not so easy to explain.

Former Manchester United players Grining and Vilson accused Ferguson of threatening to sabotage their move to Middlesbrough in 2001 and demanded that they sack their former agent and hire his son instead.

Two people said they ultimately chose to reject Ferguson's non-point request.

Ferguson Jr. naturally denied this.

There has been a rumor that Ferguson has been delaying his retirement for some reason, partly because of the opposition of Ferguson Jr.

In English football, there is a saying that when Alex. Ferguson and Martin. Alex Ferguson and Jason. Ferguson, when these three people appear together, acting together, something big must be happening.

The live television footage quickly locked onto Ferguson, his brother and son.

Even the commentators were talking about what the three members of the Ferguson family came to Villa Park for purpose.

Of course, Ferguson is also likely to be just watching the game, after all, Aston Villa and Manchester City are Manchester United's current rivals.

In fact, Ferguson did come to see the ball.

To be precise, his purpose is to watch the game.

As for saying Martin. Alex Ferguson and Jason. Ferguson's purpose is unknown.

At the end of the 120 minutes of the game, Manchester City fans cheered in the stands at Villa Park.

Aston Villa, who won the English League Cup for the second season in a row, were knocked out of the competition.

Advancing to the last four of the Carabao Cup is Manchester City.

In the eyes of the fan Alex Ferguson, it was indeed a very good game.

In the 120 minutes of the game, the two sides played 3-3, the game was fierce, and it was very enjoyable to watch.

Manchester City knock out Aston Villa.

Ferguson was not very happy with this result.

It is Aston Villa who he wants to qualify.

In this case, having reached the last four, Aston Villa has no reason to give up the League Cup, and for Manchester United, a multi-front Aston Villa is obviously in the interests of Manchester United.

"Cunning boy." Ferguson snorted.

Obviously, in this Manchester City game, Aston Villa has made a lot of rotations.

This rotation itself reflects the attitude of Aston Villa to a certain extent.

Having won the English League Cup for two consecutive seasons, Aston Villa's desire for the already relatively weak League Cup trophy is getting weaker and weaker.

As the reigning champions of the Premier League and Champions League, Aston Villa would have been in the spotlight this season.

In addition, Aston Villa still have a Club World Cup game to play, and it will be very hard to travel long distances and back and forth.

Under such circumstances, Fang Jue made the decision to give up the League Cup very decisively.

Aston Villa, who rotated a lot of main players, fell behind three times in the game and equalised three times.

In the end, the two sides played to a 3-3 draw in the space of 120 minutes.

Then in the penalty shoot-out, Manchester City hit all five penalties, and Aston Villa's side was Stroman who missed the penalty.

Advancing to the semi-finals was Manchester City.

Manchester City fans are very hilarious.

On Aston Villa's side, the fans also thanked the players for their comeback with applause.

After winning two League Cups in a row, Aston Villa fans are no longer 'indifferent' to this cup title, so it's a good thing that the team can focus more on the league and the Champions League.

Moreover, Aston Villa is a semi-substitute lineup that shocked Manchester City, which played with the main team, and it was not easy to hold on to the penalty shootout.

……

Back in Manchester, Ferguson rallied his coaching staff to watch a footage of the match between Aston Villa and Manchester City.

"What do you guys think of this game?" Ferguson asked.

"Hames. Rodriguez is in too good form and that's the key man. Someone said.

In today's game, Bale was rested, Luka Modric was injured, and Hamei became the midfield commander of Aston Villa.

The Colombian youngster is getting better and better at Aston Villa.

'In addition to Ronaldo, there were a lot of players who didn't play in this game, Suarez, Bale, Mane...... Aston Villa are very strong now. "Mike. Phelan said.

Ferguson waved his hand, meaning don't talk about it, don't I know who is more dangerous in the Aston Villa team?

"Tell me what you think of Vera's weakness."

'De Gea's form is inconsistent and young people sometimes make mistakes that they shouldn't have. So, we don't have to worry about being snatched away by Aston Villa in the summer. ”

It was Phelan who spoke.

Ferguson glanced at Phelan and shut up if he couldn't speak.

Two days later, in the 14th round of the Premier League, Aston Villa won 3-1 away at Bolton.

Suarez, who was rested in the last round, made one pass and one shot.

Sadio Mane scored twice.

The biggest feature of this round of the Premier League is that the strong teams have won smoothly, and there are no upsets.

The day after the match, FIFA and France Football held a press conference at the headquarters of the newspaper Les Teams.

FIFA Secretary-General Valk, General Manager of France Football Magazine Moliniers, and Petit Petit, Managing Director of Le Corpus, attended the press conference with French women's football team star Sinny.

The top three winners of the 2011 FIFA Ballon d'Or were announced at the press conference:

Real Madrid's Portugal star Cristiano Ronaldo, Barcelona's Argentine star Lionel Messi, and Aston Villa's Wales star Gareth. Bel.

In fact, there is not much suspense about these three players being shortlisted.

Madrid's media are cheering for Ronaldo.

The Portuguese won the top scorer in La Liga in the 10-11 season and broke the number of goals scored in a single season in La Liga to win the European Golden Boot.

In 2011, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 49 goals for Real Madrid. This season, Real Madrid is red in La Liga and the Champions League, and Ronaldo scored 20 goals. The Portuguese missed out on the top three of last year's FIFA Ballon d'Or and will certainly want to come back strong this year with a great performance.

On Barcelona's side, it is Catalonia's two mouthpieces that build momentum for Messi:

Messi deservedly finished in the top three of the 2011 FIFA Ballon d'Or, scoring 53 goals in 54 official matches for Barcelona in 2011 and winning La Liga and the Spanish Super Cup in 2011.

In terms of personal honors, Messi won the title of Player of the Season from La Liga official and Marca newspaper.

As the winner of the 2010 FIFA Ballon d'Or, Messi has a high level of popularity and has been favored by many judges.

As for Bale, the English League Cup, the Premier League, the Champions League, the Welsh youngster has beaten Mero before and won the UEFA Best of the Year.

Furthermore.

FIFA and France Football have also announced the Puskas Award nominees: Lionel Messi, Neymar and Wayne Rooney, with the trio competing for the Goal of the Year.

The three candidates for the best coach of the year were also released, Ferguson, Guardiola, and Fang Jue.

Brazil's Marta, Japan's Sawa Hoki and the United States' Wambach are the three candidates for the Women's Ballon d'Or.

Following the announcement of the final three candidates, FIFA will announce the final results of the FIFA Ballon d'Or on 9 January 2012 at a ceremony at the FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.

……

Villa training base.

The janitor old man has a Labrador puppy.

Milner brought the puppy over.

The players watched nervously.

In front of the Labrador puppy are three dinner plates with the names of Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Bale.

"Pick Gareth!" Someone shouted.

"Don't yell, scare the puppy."

Then, everyone saw that the Labrador puppy passed slowly.

First, I sniffed the plate with Ronaldo's name.

Just when everyone thought that he would choose President Luo, he twisted his head away and sniffed the plate with Messi's name written on it.

Finally, I sniffed the plate with Bell's name on it.

But there is no choice for all three.
