On 17 October, Chelsea host Aston Villa.

For José, Villa is definitely of great significance to his career.

Calculating the time, it has been a year and a half since José left Vera, but in this year and a half, Vera has become a human being.

Now Villa's manager has become Sherwood, with Paul Lambert in charge of Jose for just half a season before stepping down.

However, Kevin McDonald remains with the youth team, occasionally acting as an interim coach and coaching the first team.

In the current Villa team, there are only four players who are familiar with Jose, including captain Westwood, Bacuna, Guzan, and Grealish.

Speaking of Grealish, he has now been able to establish himself at Villa, and although the stats are not too impressive, he can still firmly occupy a main position.

It's just that Villa's situation this season is very bad, after 8 rounds of league games, they have one win, one draw and six losses, accumulating 4 points and ranking third from the bottom.

Jose's departure sent Villa into the winter, while Bentekeke's departure added insult to injury.

The owner of the Villa team, in order to make money, does not care at all about selling the star of the house.

Before the start of the game, in the tunnel of the players, Grealish pulled Jose and chatted enthusiastically.

"Brother, when I shoot the goal, you let me do it." The lattice looks.

Hearing Grealish's words, Jose gave the other party a roll of the eye on the spot and said, "If I kick the goal kick with a big kick, you can help me bring the ball into your goal." ”

"That's too much, I just told you not to work so hard, but you told me to betray the team." Gezi pointed at Jose and scolded.

"Is there a difference?" Jose replied lightly.

"Of course there is a difference, but the difference is not ordinary."

Just as Gezi was about to make a tirade, Jose directly interrupted him and said, "Serious game, I will invite you to eat Huaxia cuisine after the game." ”

"Really?" When Grealish heard that there was Chinese cuisine, he immediately came to his senses.

Unlike other Westerners, Grealish's fondness for Chinese cuisine is a genuine fondness.

If you go to the street interviews, most Westerners will say that they like Chinese food, but their love for Chinese food is only at the stage of trying it.

Grealish is a different story, and he can even treat Chinese cuisine as a staple.

Of course, China is a vast land, and there is a big gap between the eating habits of the north and the south, even Chinese people can't like all Chinese dishes, and Grealish is no different.

In fact, most Westerners prefer to talk about southern cuisine, and Grealish's favorite is the simplest shredded sour potato.

"If you can score, the dish is yours." José looked calm.

Grealish's dribbling and passing ability are very good, but his shooting is at the level of a second-rate striker.

"Can you change it?" Of course, he also knows his archery ability, so he said so.

"No, I can't. Don't you even have the confidence to shoot? Do you still want to enter a wealthy family with this mentality? Jose refused.

"Okay, just don't pay the bills." Grealish was whisked up by Jose and said.

…

At 15 o'clock local time, the game officially started.

In this game, Mourinho made another substitution adjustment.

Baba played at right-midfield, while Cesar Azpilicueta reverted to right-midfield.

The midfield partners are Cesc Fabregas and Nemanja Matic.

In the forward line, Costa returned from suspension, Hazard's position was untouchable, and the only change was the right winger, and Willian got the chance to start.

As for Villa, Sherwood has set up a 4231 formation, and its balanced offensive and defensive characteristics make it difficult for weak teams to abandon it.

Changing formations like Chelsea? There are very few players in the world who can go up and down like Cesar Azpilicueta and threaten the ball from the wing.

It's not that people don't know the benefits of a three-centre-back, it's that it's too difficult to find the right player.

Villa's specific starting line-up.

Guzan served as the starting goalkeeper.

Captain Westwood was partnered with Gueye in a back two.

Grealish was the attacking attacker, alongside Hill and Jordan Ayew to deliver shells to Gasstead.

The system publishes the same task on time.

It's just a little strange that Jose participated in the European Championship qualifiers, but the system didn't release the task, is the European Championship qualifiers not as gold as the Premier League?

Regardless, the European Championship qualifiers are over, and until next June, England's games will be just minor warm-up matches.

With a whistle from referee Easter, the game officially began.

Villa were given the first kick-off.

After Sherwood took over, Villa's tactical style changed slightly. Although they still focus on the counter-attack, they also strengthen the chances of possession at their feet.

Jack Grealish advanced down the flank, but against a back five Chelsea, there was no chance to cross a cross.

In desperation, Grealish cut inside with the ball.

Cesc Fabregas attempted to intercept it, but failed.

Xiaofa's defensive ability is really at the same level as Hazard.

Outside the Chelsea box, Grealish suddenly got up and shot at goal, and he saw what Jose had just looked at the sky.

Grealish admits he knows Jose well, but the two have not been on the pitch together for more than three years.

Jose's playing habits, Grealish can be said to know nothing.

He looked at the sky just now, and naturally watched the changes on the field through the perspective of God.

Grealish's sudden shot was clear to Jose.

Without any difficulty, Jose easily confiscated Grealish's shot.

"This shot is not enough." José smiled and shouted to Grealish.

Hearing José's words, Grealish was stunned for a moment, and then asked puzzledly, "Didn't you just look at the sky?" How can I see my shots? ”

"Haha, fooled, right? I'm not going to tell you. José teased Grealish as he tossed a goal kick to Zouma.

It was Chelsea's turn to counter-attack.

Unfortunately, Hazard's shot from the edge of the box was missed.

The game continued, and the pace of the two sides was not too fast.

Maybe it's because of Jose, the players on both sides are also more amiable.

Live chat room.

"Attack, why didn't Hazard rush?"

"It stands to reason that the impact of the international break is not so big, is it?"

"It's not good, do you mean they want to play tacit ball?"

"No way, Mu Niao is not such a person."

"Mu Bird can't play tacit ball, but can you guarantee that the players won't?"
