The defeat against Sheffield Wednesday dropped Aston Villa to fourth in the table. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But no one cares about this now, whether it's the fans, the media who support Villa, or the team's top management, all they care about is why Wang Shuai didn't play. Obviously, they put the reason for the team's loss down to this one.

For these people, as long as the team can win, they will not care whether there is a real contradiction between Leif and Wang Shuai. But if the team loses, then all the factors that are not good for the team will be magnified indefinitely. And now, that downside is clearly head coach Reif.

Back in Birmingham, Reif locked himself in his home, refused to be interviewed, refused to answer the phone, and blocked all contact with the outside world. In the aftermath of the defeat, Reiff was surprised that Wang was really so important to the team, and on the other hand, he was more uneasy. Leif didn't dare to imagine the consequences of what he did, he had been thinking about keeping his position before, and now he was afraid.

Jingle Bell ~~~!!

Leif's phone rang again, he glanced at the caller ID, it was Jian Xia, this was the 17th call from the other party, but Leif never answered.

After a while, the phone stopped ringing, followed by a text message.

"Mr. Reif, in view of your irresponsible behavior towards the team in the last game, the club has decided to impose a three-game ban on you, during which Mr. Wang Shuai will act as head coach, I wish you a good night."

Boom~!

“Fxxk~~~！！！” Leif slammed his phone against the wall and cursed loudly, but that didn't change the outcome in the slightest.

……

The next morning.

Villa Park Stadium.

Villa's players were already waiting at the training ground, but the coach was nowhere to be seen.

"Ahem," Wang Shuai walked over from the sidelines, "Coach Reiff was punished with a three-game ban from the team, during which I acted as head coach. Don't ask what's going on, I don't know, and that's not what we should be concerned about. All we have to do is train hard and win the next game. If you don't have any doubts, you can start training. Greenhouse, come here. ”

When he heard Wang Shuai's words, the captain of Vera was already very surprised. After all this time, Greenhouse could already imagine what Leif had thought and done. Now it seems that the team's top management has chosen the latter between Reif and Wang Shuai. This kind of abandonment of the head coach by keeping the players really refreshed Greenhouse's worldview.

"Coach, you call me?"

"Well, what the hell happened between you and Coach Reif before? I know it all started with the last interview. ”

"Well, that's what you asked...... I called Coach Reiff once before the game against Rotherham and I said to him, give you the captaincy and it turned out to be ...... You got it, too. ”

"That's exactly what happened...... Okay, it's okay, let's go training......"

"yes, okay." Greenhouse took two steps and stopped, turned to Wang Shuai and said again, "Wang Shuai, no matter what Coach Reif does or doesn't do, I always think it's more appropriate for you to be the captain." ”

Wang Shuai looked at the 29-year-old central midfielder a little stunned: "Eh, thank you." ”

……

When he really took over the coaching whip of the head coach, Wang Shuai found that the job was not as easy as he imagined. Formulating tactics, arranging training content, and recording the state of players, all these things have to be done by Wang Shuai himself.

Aston Villa only have two coaches, Reif and Wang Shuai. When Reiff was the head coach before, Wang Shuai only needed to be responsible for the tactical work, and the two had a clear division of labor. But now Wang Shuai is the only one left, and he has to take care of his own training, which makes Wang Shuai suddenly feel unskilled.

Wang Shuai's current coaching system has not changed for more than a year, and his coaching level is still at the stage of "amateur coach". Although the system also publishes the task of upgrading to "Junior Professional Coach", the requirement for this task is to obtain the position of head coach of a professional team. Obviously, Wang Shuai's current acting head coach is not up to the task.

Fortunately, Wang Shuai has learned a lot from the previous coach training and Nangong Zheng, plus he can completely understand the state of the players, which makes Wang Shuai not really anxious.

……

Reif's intra-squad suspension is three games, and after the third round of the league, there is a break of almost half a month, followed by a high-intensity schedule of three games a week, which means that Wang's acting head coach will last for three weeks.

During this time, Wang Shuai has gradually adapted to the work of the head coach, although he is still very busy every day, but he is becoming more and more handy, and the team's defensive and tactical training has also been carried out smoothly, so that Villa's strength has once again entered a new level.

At the same time, although the players of Villa feel that Wang Shuai is still a little young in the position of head coach, they are more and more convinced of his tactical arrangement, and there is no disharmony in the atmosphere in the team due to the temporary change of coach.

In such a situation, half a month passed in a flash, and the Championship began again.

On September 10, in the fourth round of the Championship, Aston Villa challenged Derby County away.

In this game, Greenhouse took the initiative to hand over the captain's armband to Wang Shuai. With the blessing of Wang Shuai's captaincy skills, coupled with the team's newly trained defensive tactics, Aston Villa defeated the opponent with a score of 5:0.

On September 14, in the fifth round of the English Championship, Aston Villa continued their away trip to Bristol City and won a big victory again, 4:0, Villa returned with a full load.

On September 17, in the sixth round of the English Championship, Villa's soldiers finally returned to their home stadium to face Nottingham Forest, and after still a score of 4:0, Villa won three consecutive titles.

After those three games, it was no surprise that Villa were back at the top of the league table. Huddersfield, which lost to Villa before, also showed a tough momentum and ranked second with Villa. The other two teams, Newcastle United and Barnsley, are tied on 12 points, three points apart in third and fourth place.

After six rounds of league matches, the strengths and weaknesses of the 24 teams have been basically distinguished, but the gap is not too obvious. Not counting Villa and Hudders in the top two, Newcastle in third place and Nottingham Forest in twelfth place, there is only a three-point gap between them.

It's just that before the crowd and fans of Villa could rejoice about the top spot, there was another bombshell news from the team.

Aston Villa manager Reif voluntarily terminated his contract with the club and resigned as head coach.
