Chapter 995(1/2)
May 19th, the last round of the Premier League in 2012/2013.
Aston Villa faces Vigan Athletic away.
Vigan Sport is currently 35 points, ranking 18th in the league, four points behind Sunderland, the seventeenth in the league.
With only the last round left in the league, Vigan Athletics has been relegated to the English Championship one round ahead of schedule.
And Aston Villa has won the championship ahead of schedule.
Therefore, both sides have no desires in this game.
Aston Villa bid farewell to the domestic competition this season with a big win.
Ibrahimovic assisted Lewandowski and Mane to score goals respectively in the game.
Mane scored twice in the game, and Daniel Ross assisted his second goal.
In addition, De Bruyne also assisted Ha Mei to score a goal, helping the team lock the score at 4-0.
At the last moment of the game, Fang Jue replaced Gleno.
Gleno rarely got the start in this game, and the Spanish veteran with mixed reputations has decided to retire after the end of this season.
So, today's game is also Glenno's last Premier League game for Aston Villa.
The last game of each season is not only a moment of cheering for victory and celebrating the harvest of a season, but also a moment of farewell.
In this Aston Villa team, two Italian veterans, Inzagi and Nesta, plus Glino, all three veterans will retire after the end of the season.
Aston Villa won 4-0 away game at the JJB Stadium of Vigan Athletics, and put a perfect end to his Premier League in 2012/2013 season with a big victory.
...
At the same time, the matches on the other nine fields also ended, and the 2012/2013 Premier League season came to an end.
In the Hawthorn Stadium in West Bromwich, Manchester United and West Bromwich performed a crazy goal performance, and the final score of the game was five to five.
After the game, Ferguson delivered a farewell speech on the spot.
In the camera, there are many old white-haired fans in the stands. Because they are old, they rarely come to watch the game on site.
However, Ferguson retired, and the old man who had coached Manchester United for 26 years was about to retire. These old fans said that they would come to say goodbye to Ferguson.
Ferguson likes to chew gum while directing the game on the sidelines, which is already a well-known story.
After the game that day, a fan happened to get the gum that Ferguson chewed in the game.
The fans then hung the gum online and described that the gum that Ferguson had chewed was very rare; it was found on the Hawthorn Field and is now in plexiglass and wooden boxes.
The fan said he was willing to auction the gum and donate the proceeds to Manchester United Charity Foundation after the auction.
...
Aston Villa won the Premier League championship with 30 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses, with 95 points, which is their four consecutive Premier League championships.
Manchester United won the runner-up in the Premier League this season with 84 points, 11 points behind Aston Villa.
Manchester City won the third place in the Premier League with a score of 75 points.
Chelsea narrowly defeated Everton at home with a score of 2-1 in the final league, and finally led Arsenal with 73 points and secured the fourth place in the Premier League.
Arsenal ranked fifth in the Premier League with 70 points and qualified for the Europa League next season. This is also the two consecutive seasons Arsenal missed the Champions League. Outside Arsenal's Kearney training base, some fans raised banners of protest.
Because the FA Cup champion Aston Villa and the FA Cup runner-up both qualified for the UEFA Champions League next season, Tottenham Hotspur, the sixth-placed league, also qualified for the UEFA Cup next season.
In addition, because the League Cup champion Aston Villa has the Champions League to play, Swansea, who was beaten up by Aston Villa seven to one in the League Cup final, became "blessed in disguise" and qualified for the UEFA Europa League next season.
Vigan Athletics, Reading and Queens Park Rangers ranked third to last, locking in three relegation places.
In the scorer list, Dutch scorer Van Persie, who joined Manchester United from Arsenal last summer, won the Premier League Golden Boot with 26 goals.
Lewandowski, who also transferred to a new team last summer and joined Aston Villa from Dortmund, scored 22 goals in the Premier League this season and won the Premier League silver boots.
In addition to Lewandowski's silver boots, Ibrahimovic scored 14 goals in the league and ranked eighth in the scorer list.
In addition, Jamie Vardy's outstanding performance also won praise from the media. As a forward substitute, Vardy scored ten goals in the league, which was impressive.
In the Premier League assist list, Chelsea's Mata was crowned the Premier League assist champion with 12 assists.
Ibrahimovic ranked second with 11 assists, and like him, the outstanding performance of Chelsea player Hazard and Arsenal player Casorla are also Chelsea player Hazard and Arsenal player Casorla.
In addition, Hamei and Milner tied for fourth place in the Premier League assists with nine assists.
Modric and De Bruyne tied for fifth in the Premier League assists with 8 assists.
As a young player, De Bruyne scored four goals in the league, and performed well.
...
However, the most eye-catching thing is the French young player Paul Pogba who is free from Manchester United.
As Modric's substitute, Pogba delivered a beautiful answer with three goals and seven assists in the Premier League.
In addition, Pogba also scored a goal in the Champions League.
In the English League Cup, Pogba scored three goals and four assists.
In the FA Cup, Pogba scored two goals and three assists.
Not counting the Champions League finals that have not yet started, the French young player scored 9 goals for Aston Villa in various competitions and had 14 assists.
For a young man who had a rare chance to play at Manchester United last season, such outstanding performance shocked many people.
Some media also ran over to ask Ferguson if he regretted letting Pogba go. The old sir was still extremely firm, and he said that he would never regret it.
...
Ferguson didn't regret it later.
Fang Jue is now annoying to compare prices.
Pogba performed very well, and his agent Raiola also became active.
Last summer, Pogba almost joined Juventus, who was captured by Fang Jue from Juventus.
Now, seeing Pogba's performance in Aston Villa is very good, Juventus has started to think about introducing this young French man again.
In this case, Raiola, as Pogba's agent, did not deny Juventus' favor like some agents, but instead began to whistle to the media:
Juventus wants Pogba? I'm not surprised at all. Pogba's talent and strength deserve the favor of any team.
Pogba was very happy in Aston Villa, but none of us could guarantee what would happen in the future.
Faced with Raiola's active behavior, Fang Jue was also a little angry.
At first he thought that Raiola was using this method to pressure Aston Villa to claim a higher salary for Pogba.
However, Raiola has not yet made any requests to Aston Villa Club for Pogba’s salary.
In fact, when signing two Raiola players, Ibrahimovic and Pogba, one after another, Mendes reminded Fang Jue that Raiola is difficult to deal with, and if Aston Villa and Raiola are not good, they will sooner or later fall apart.
Fang Jue was mentally prepared for Raiola's character and difficulty.
This guy has many outstanding players, but his relationship with many wealthy families is also relatively stiff.
Take the transfer matter as an example. In the stirring of Raiola, many clubs are actually in a state of restraint in the competition for their players.
In 2010, Balotelli, who attempted to leave Inter Milan, was chased by two Premier League giants, Manchester City and Chelsea.
Faced with the secret competition between two new and old tycoons in the Premier League, Raiola actively negotiated player transactions with the two clubs, and restrained each other based on the actual employment needs of the two clubs and accurately raised the price of players.
After a lengthy tug-of-war, Manchester City finally signed Balotelli for 28 million euros, which was much higher than the original quotation of 20 million.
Moreover, when talking about Raiola's famous work, we also have to talk about his work of operating Nedved to Juventus twenty years ago. When facing the then general manager of Juventus, Moji, who has always been famous for his negotiation skills, Raiola fully demonstrated his ability to raise prices.
Under the tough words of saying "If 40 million euros are not given, Nedved will become a general under Inter Milan", Moji finally made a concession. In that era, Nedved's transfer fee of 41.5 million euros was definitely huge.
Inter Milan was tricked by Raiola over there. Moratti once really believed that Raiola would bring Nedved to Meazza Stadium.
Let me put it this way, as long as the club that has done business with Raiola, almost no one will say a few words.
Looking at the entire football world, it seems that no one is more suitable for the words "greed" and "crawl" than Raiola.
...
However, Fang Jue also noticed that both Ibrahimovic and Pogba trusted Raiola very much.
This is the two sides of Raiola's attitude towards life. He is very cunning to the club, which makes many clubs hate it.
However, he is very good to the players.
The main reason why he can be invincible for a long time in player trade is that he has a good relationship with all of his players.
In the transfer of players, Raiola can not only help players raise prices and enhance their market value, but also always win more abundant income for players in contract negotiations.
In life, Raiola is also very good at actively communicating with players, and these reasons directly make Raiola's team trust him extremely.
Byron, general manager of Aston Villa Club, upholding Fang Jue's will, called Raiola and asked the super agent to pay attention to his words and control his mouth.
Raiola shut up.
He stopped talking about Pogba, but instead began talking about Ibrahimovic.
"Some people say that Zlatan gets so much salary in Villa (260,000 pounds) is wrong. It turns out that this is indeed wrong. Zlatan deserves doubled his salary!"
