No. [214] Hui: Attack the other's shortcomings with your own strengths

Aston Villa have finished sixth in the Premier League for two consecutive seasons and are a rising powerhouse that has even changed the landscape of the Premier League.

If Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea are the first group in the Premier League, then Aston Villa, Everton, Manchester City and Tottenham are the second group in the Premier League.

The gap between the teams in the second group and some of the teams in the first group is actually not large, and there are teams in the second group that are likely to complete the counterattack and enter the first group.

Now in the eyes of experts, the one with the best chance of completing the counterattack is the Aston Villa team.

The strength of the Aston Villa team is evident.

The Birmingham team is only a promoted horse, and the personnel changes in the new season are very large, and there are only three players in the main team who can stay in the main squad of the team this season, which is almost a change of team, and everyone really does not know how strong this is.

However, the team in this new group will definitely be chaotic in the early stage and cannot be pinched into a whole.

The Birmingham team is still a promoted team, so the strength of the team is obviously not favored by experts and media reporters, who all believe that the current Birmingham and Aston Villa really have no comparison.

Therefore, a lot of people think that Birmingham and Aston Villa at this time are simply too different, one on earth and one in heaven. As it stands, it can't be called a derby at all, the gap between the two is too big.

Experts all believe that Aston Villa's beating of the Birmingham team is simply abuse, and directly beating Birmingham!

In the pre-match period, Aston Villa's demike was angry, as if they had won the game before it even started, pulling out various banners to sarcastically ridicule Birmingham fans.

The game was played at St Andrews Park, and the Aston Villa fans dared to be so arrogant, they really didn't take the Birmingham team seriously.

The Birmingham fans were furious and they began to fight back fiercely, lashing out at the Aston Villa fans, and the fans of both sides even confronted each other openly in the streets.

The local police in Birmingham were dispatched early in the morning, and at this time, they were very busy, patrolling the streets almost all day, and they were really afraid that something would happen.

On one occasion in a Birmingham derby, there was a fight between fans on both sides, with both police and SWAT using weapons such as tear gas to stop the brawl between fans on both sides.

The current police are very nervous, very busy, seeing that the fans on both sides are now likely to riot, the city of Birmingham immediately discharged more police, and even the traffic police and fire brigade called out to maintain order.

The atmosphere of this derby is really strong, and it even overtakes the Manchester derby.

This is Dongfang Chen's first derby to join the Birmingham team, this atmosphere is really nervous, very nervous, this is completely different from what you watch in front of the TV, the scene is much more popular than what you see, immersive, you can feel the most original feeling.

In an environment like Derby, Dongfang Chen felt as if he was really preparing for a war.

The atmosphere in the stadium of St Andrews is very warm, the fans on both sides have begun to pinch each other, scolding each other, they have neat movements, neat shouts, no less than the confrontation army, that power is really strong.

When warming up in the stadium, Dongfang Chen could feel the strong smell of gunsmoke.

The players of the Birmingham team were expressionless and prepared for this game very strictly, unlike in the past, when they were warming up, they talked and laughed, very strict.

The players of the Birmingham team have warmed up carefully and stretched their bodies, this derby is a game that cannot be lost, they are very serious, very careful.

When the Aston Villa fans saw the players of the Birmingham team, they immediately became crazy sarcastic, and some even cursed with vicious language.

Dongfang Chen is naturally the most diligent player greeted by Aston Villa fans, and they all sarcastically said to Dongfang Chen: "Chinese can play? You might as well go back and play table tennis! This is not the place for you! ”

"Dongfang Chen, get out, you don't deserve Abang Lahoti shoes! Dongfang Chen dead rubbish, hurry up and get out of here, don't let me cut you! Aston Villa's fans cursed frantically as if they had a hatred for killing their father and taking their wife.

Seeing their idols being insulted, Birmingham fans immediately fought back, cursing frantically at the Aston Villa fans and the Aston Villa players.

Of course, this guy is the focus of Birmingham fans, this guy is simply too arrogant before the game, they hate this guy to death, and immediately curse Abbon Laho wildly.

The players from both sides, after warming up, returned to the dressing room.

"Hello everyone, fans! This is Sky Sports, I'm Andy Gray, and I'm Martin Taylor. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray immediately began his opening remarks.

"Hello everyone! I'm Martin Taylor, a narrator you're familiar with, and it's a pleasure to meet you again. Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said.

"Today we bring you the fifth round of this season's Premier League, Birmingham's home game against Aston Villa, yes, you heard it right, it's the Birmingham derby, also called the second city derby." Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

'The Birmingham Derby hasn't been in front of us for over a year and now that the Birmingham Derby is back, it's worth keeping an eye on.' Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said.

'It's the first Birmingham derby of the season, to be honest, the gap between the two teams is a bit big, Aston Villa are obviously a lot better than Birmingham, and I think Birmingham are a bit of a suspense in this derby. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

"However, judging from the historical results, I am still optimistic about the Birmingham team today, because before today, the Birmingham team won the first two home Birmingham derbys, and their psychological advantage I think is very big, I am optimistic about them." Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said.

At this time, the players of both sides were in the dressing room listening to the manager's tactical plan.

Away, in the dressing room of Aston Villa.

Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill stood in front of the tactical board and said very calmly: "The Birmingham team in front of you is still a little bit strong, and you have to admit this, you can't take it lightly and underestimate the opponent. ”

This is not the first time Martin O'Neill has reminded his players of Aston Villa, and it is clear that Martin O'Neill is a very sensible manager.

Martin O'Neill added: "Of course, their biggest weakness, as I told you, they don't understand at all, whether it's attacking or defending, that's their biggest weakness and our biggest opportunity. ”

The Aston Villa players nodded their heads in agreement with manager Martin O'Neill.

Martin O'Neill said: "When you attack, you mainly break through the middle and attack the opponent's defence, they don't work together, there will be some low-level mistakes, you have to take those opportunities, remember? ”

The Aston Villa players immediately nodded their heads to indicate they understood.

Martin Olney thought for a moment and then said to Abang Laho: "You have to use your strengths to attack the Birmingham defence, I am sure they will not be able to prevent you. ”

Indeed, Abang Lajo has a strong impact, he is very fast, and he is relatively strong, so such a striker is indeed a bit difficult to deal with.

Martin O'Neill turned to the Aston Villa defenders and said: "When defending, you must keep an eye on the Chinese on the other side, although I have been belittling him before the game, but you can't believe what I said, this guy has strength, you must not underestimate him, otherwise Manchester United will be your end." ”

To put it mildly, Aston Villa's defenders were a little unimpressed by Martin O'Neill's words, they don't think Dongfang Chen has anything powerful, scoring two goals for Manchester United is just luck, and now he has not scored in two games?

However, Aston Villa's players did not dare to go against Martin O'Neill's wishes, and they immediately nodded firmly, saying that they would definitely not despise Dongfang Chen.

Martin O'Neill added: "The outside world is right, we are much better than the Birmingham team, as long as we show our quality in this game, we will definitely win, everyone must not be under pressure, play well and try to win." ”

The Aston Villa fans immediately shouted excitedly: "Win! Victory! Victory! ”

In the dressing room of the home team Birmingham.

Birmingham head coach McLeish also stood in front of the tactical board, staring very hard at his players.

The players of the Birmingham team sat upright with the same solemn expressions.

McLeish said: "It's a very, very important game, it's a game we have to win and I want you to give it your all and treat her like your UEFA Champions League final and you have to win! ”

The players of the Birmingham team immediately nodded firmly and shouted: "Definitely win!" Be sure to take it! ”

McLeish nodded and said, "We've figured out the tactics very well in this week's training, but I still have to remind you here. ”

The players of the Birmingham team pricked up their ears and listened intently.

McLeish said: "Aston Villa's attack is very strong, our defensive pressure is very high in this game, but this is not to say that we don't have a chance, our attack is also very strong, since we are very likely to be unable to defend, then we will not defend, we will attack Aston Villa!" ”

This week, the Birmingham team's main training is attack, and in the usual training, McLeish also told the Birmingham players that they will play against Aston Villa this week.

McLeish continued: "Compared to Aston Villa's attack, their defence is nothing short of scum, they conceded 50 goals last season, and this defence is really scum. And this season their main defender last season Laursen retired due to injury, the number one goalkeeper Sorensen left the team, their defense is even worse now, and our attack is also very strong, so the attack is our chance. ”

Dongfang Chen knew very well what McLeish said, because McLeish had said it many times.

McLeish continued: "Aston Villa are not as strong as everyone thinks, their weaknesses are simply too obvious, and our strength is in attack, using our strengths to attack their weaknesses, so we can't win? ”

Dongfang Chen immediately stood up, raised his arms and shouted: "Victory!" We will win! ”

The players of the Birmingham team also immediately stood up in unison, waving their fists and shouting: "Win! We will win! ”

McCriss and said: "East, Aston Villa will definitely defend you today!" So, at the beginning of the game, you weren't the team's first point of attack, you and the whole team were mainly playing for Sturridge, and after we had attracted the Aston Villa defence, we shifted the focus and you were the main attacker. ”

This McLeish also said to him before the game, and Dongfang Chen nodded firmly, indicating that he knew.

Seeing Dongfang Chen nodding, Macleish felt a lot more relaxed, and immediately shouted, "Okay! Let's go! Go and win!. ”
