"Okay, kids, let your dad rest for a while." Victoria drove away the kids who were pestering Beckham and playing.

She and Beckham now have three children. The eldest son Brooklyn is ten years old, the second son Romeo is seven years old, and the youngest son Cruze is only four years old.

After the children left, Victoria asked her husband how she felt when she was training on the first day of today.

"It's not bad," said Beckham. "There are Luther, and some of the national team's young men and teammates."

"Desler and others also knew each other."

Victoria noticed her husband's relaxed attitude when speaking, and obviously she was in a good mood.

"I finally fulfilled your wish when I returned to Europe to play football." Victoria said a little dissatisfied.

Although she also got a lot of resources and nodded to agree that Beckham would return to Europe, Victoria still yearns for life in the United States at heart.

Beckham smiled, said nothing, and was not angry. The old couple had become old and married, and he knew that his wife was just verbally complaining.

Victoria asked her husband what he thought of the young new head coach again.

Beckham thought about it before saying, "It's different from any head coach I've ever met before."

“Very young.”

“It looks very energetic.”

"It can be seen that the players are convinced of him."

"Luther talked to me about coaching and was also amazed."

"It is really very capable to lead a new team to win the La Liga championship."

"However, it will take some time to know what's going on... It's not bad at the moment."

"Yes, of course it's different. The club owner is the head coach, but he is the first in football." Victoria said.

"This has nothing to do with him being the boss, and the players admire him, only victory and results." Beckham said.

"You seem to admire him?" Victoria asked.

"Maybe." Beckham shrugged.

Victoria gave her husband a blank look and went out.

After a while, he came back wearing a pink gauze skirt that was faintly visible.

"What are you doing while standing?"

"Didn't you say you want to have a daughter?"

Beckham sighed in his heart, but pretended to admire him very much and pounced on him.

As long as he arrives in a new team, Victoria will be very diligent, as if she is afraid that he will have the energy to steal...

...

The evening exercise ends.

Fang Jue kissed his wife's forehead.

Change into pajamas.

Go to the study, turn on your laptop and start working.

He is paying attention and thinking about the team's upcoming Christmas Devil schedule.

There is no winter break in the Premier League.

Not only that, but Christmas is the most intensive event.

Even the stronger the team, the stronger the opponent during Christmas.

The FA has arranged many powerful conversations during Christmas to attract and please fans.

Aston Villa will be away from the Stadium of Light in the 17th round of the league two days later, against Sunderland.

Then four days later, in the 18th round of the league, Aston Villa played against Stoke City at home.

Next is the most severe schedule.

On December 27, in the 19th round of the league, he was visiting the Emirates Stadium and faced Professor Wenger's Arsenal.

On December 29, I returned to my home court, and the 20th round of the league, my opponent was the Reds Liverpool.

Then four days later, on January 2, 2010, the first game of the New Year, the third round of the FA Cup, played against Blackburn at home.

On January 9th, the 21st round of the league will face Weigan Athletics as a guest.

Four days later, in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals, the away game against Blackburn.

Four days later, in the 22nd round of the league, they will face West Ham United at home.

Then, three days later, in the second leg of the League Cup semi-finals, facing Blackburn at home.

Then, three days later, the fourth round of the FA Cup, the opponents are to be decided. Of course, this requires them to pass the third round of the FA Cup first.

Then, four days later, the 23rd round of the league, faced Arsenal at home.

Three days later, in the 24th round of the league, away against Fulham.

From December 15th, the 17th away game against Sunderland in the league.

In a month and a half, Aston Villa has to play at most twelve games, an average of less than four days.

Such a high intensity of the game really makes the players physically and mentally exhausted!

However, the FA, who arranged this schedule, also had its own wishful thinking.

As we all know, this period happened to be the Western Christmas and New Year holidays, which also gave more people time to pay attention to football games. Whether it is the number of attendees and ratings, the devilish schedule of the Premier League has always remained high.

The promotion of economic interests has also made the Premier League schedule more difficult than Europe.

In fact, most mainstream leagues except the Premier League have implemented winter breaks at the same time.

From a climatic perspective, the British Isles, which have a temperate marine climate, enjoy the "benefits" of the North Atlantic warm current for many years. This is very suitable for high-quality football matches.

From the perspective of cultural heritage, the founder of modern football, Britain has long regarded football matches as one of the ways to celebrate important festivals. Arrangement of matches on Boxing Day after Christmas (December 26) has long become an unwritten routine in the Premier League.

In addition, in the British football league system, there are two important events: the FA Cup and the League Cup, which will inevitably affect the league schedule.

If the Premier League chooses to have a winter break, the devil's schedule can only be arranged in the sprint stage in March and April, which will test each team more than it is now.

In short, the Christmas Devil's schedule has been fixed, becoming one of the important highlights of the Premier League.

During the devil's schedule every year, it is a time when there are many upsets.

Often, teams in the relegation zone will suddenly make efforts to escape because they will give up the FA Cup and League Cup directly and take advantage of this period to specialize in the league.

Even for the giants with always strong bench depth, the challenge of the devil's schedule is huge.

The most painful thing is that traditional powerhouses like Aston Villa have to play in the league, and it is difficult to give up the FA Cup and the League Cup directly, otherwise they will not be able to explain to the fans.

For Aston Villa and Fang Jue, this is his first devilish schedule to take over the team.

It's also difficult for him to make a decision to give up on the League Cup and the FA Cup.

On the one hand, the team has reached the semi-finals of the League Cup and has already played this step. If you play three more games, you will have a chance to win the championship.

It is naturally excellent to win a championship in the first season of taking over the team.

In addition, as the oldest club in the Premier League, Aston Villa's fans tradition attach great importance to the FA Cup and are not easy to give up.

Therefore, this devilish schedule, third-line battle, and bench thickness are much different from that of Manchester United, Chelsea and other giants will be very difficult.

...

Two days later, in the 17th round of the league, Aston Villa was away from Sunderland in Tyne and Will in northern England, and played away against Sunderland.

Before the game, Sunderland's media were very optimistic. They believed that even if the opponent is Aston Villa, who is fourth in the league, they have hope of getting points or even winning.

reason?

Now, no one in Europe knows that Aston Villa is a hero who 'robs the rich and helps the poor'.

As long as they just got points from the wealthy family, they will generously help the villagers in the next round.

Therefore, in the last round of the league, Aston Villa won Manchester United four-3 at home, and the happiest ones besides Aston Villa's fans were Sunderland's fans.

Before the game, when the head coaches of both sides shook hands, Sunderland coach Bruce O'Neal held Fang Jue's hand, and that attitude was very enthusiastic.

Fang Jue even had the illusion that an old cadre led a team to the countryside to send warmth and was warmly welcomed by the village chief.

Damn it.

Fang Jue knew that the other party really took the legend of "robbing the rich and helping the poor" seriously.

...

On the stadium, Aston Villa's players formed a circle.

"The coach said that this game must be won," said captain Petrov.

"Catch it!" everyone shouted in a low voice.

"The coach said that he couldn't win the game and walked back to Birmingham."
