Chapter 025 The right of the winner!

At the end of the game, Aston Villa chairman Lerner politely came to the box where Manchester City executives were located to congratulate them on their victory.

"Congratulations, Mr. Alfaim, Manchester City played beautifully," said Aston Villa chairman Lerner. Although he felt bad when he said this, the necessary etiquette was still needed.

"Thank you." Alfaim was in a very good mood, "Aston Villa played well, but unfortunately, there was only one winner."

Looking at the smile on the Arab's face, Aston Villa Chairman Lener twitched, then greeted Manchester City Club General Manager Cook and left.

"He must be feeling well," Cook said with a smile.

After the Abu Dhabi consortium took over Manchester City, especially after Manchester City bought Zhang Yang for 75 million pounds, it caused a stir in the Premier League. Lerner, the one who just came to congratulate Manchester City on their winning goal, was the one who criticized Manchester City in the media for being more enthusiastic. Lerner said that Manchester City's big-handed behavior would cause the Premier League to be in chaos.

"I didn't expect that this gentleman would come to congratulate us in person." Alfaim said with a smile.

"This is the British gentleman's behavior, right?" Cook joked.

"In England, we still have a lot to learn." Alfaim laughed, "For example, how do you deal with these people."

Manchester City away against Aston Villa was the latest match in the first round of the Premier League in 2008/2009. This match ended and all ten games between the 20 teams in the first round ended.

The most popular one is the match between Manchester City and Aston Villa.

Zhang Yang's performance in the game was extremely dazzling. Among Manchester City's four goals, Zhang Yang scored three goals and scored a hat-trick. Wright Phillips' goal also came from Zhang Yang's wonderful pass.

Zhang Yang's three goals are all manifestations of his personal ability. Only the team's fourth goal was Zhang Yang assisting his teammates to score, indicating that the tacit understanding between him and his teammates is also growing.

For Zhang Yang, if he has not yet been able to integrate into the team well, his hat trick and assists will be a fantasy level.

After the game, when the players celebrated this "unexpected" victory, Zhang Yang accepted an interview with a reporter from the Times and talked about his views on his first game between him and Manchester City in the Premier League.

"I made a hat trick in my debut at Manchester City and the team also won a big victory. How do you feel?" asked a reporter from The Times.

Zhang Yang wiped the sweat from his body with his jersey, with a winning smile on his face, and said: "Whether it was the coach or all the players, we were fully prepared for the first game. We created some opportunities in the first half and seized three of them, which laid the foundation for the victory of the whole game. In the second half, Wright's goal made us believe that the victory was in our hands. Of course, Aston Villa performed well in the last half hour, but we were the winners! Starting a season with such a victory with a hat trick is a pleasant thing for both the team and myself."

"This is your first Premier League game. Aston Villa is the first Premier League opponent you face. How does it feel when you play?" the reporter continued.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "This is my first Premier League game, that's right. However, Aston Villa is not the first Premier League team I face. When in Marseille, Marseille met with Chelsea in the Champions League one-eighth game."

"Sorry." The Times reporter also smiled, "So, how do you feel?"

"The pace of the Premier League is faster." Zhang Yang thought about it and said, "The play is simpler and clearer, and the team does not pay more attention to defense like Serie A team. Therefore, the goals scored by big scores may be relatively more."

"At the Villa Park Stadium today, a truly flamboyant goal storm was launched. Can I say that?"

"Of course, don't forget, what I said before the game, I want to score and the team wants to win, this is the most perfect." Zhang Yang said bluntly.

Thames reporter James Wade looked at the young man who spoke without any politeness and suddenly became very curious about Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang's current tone and performance, the legendary Zhang Yang's personality is like this. However, Wade was very curious. What did this Manchester City No. 10 think when he was saying these words? Does he really care what people think about him? Don't mind the media saying that he is arrogant and arrogant?

With this question in his heart, James Wade asked his own question, "Zhang, do you know that the Aston Villa fans dislike you very much?"

When Zhang Yang heard this question, he no longer had a smile on his face, but replied with a serious expression: "I am now a Manchester City fan. My task is to score goals and please the fans with your outstanding performance and make them happy. This is my greatest value. As for Aston Villa fans? Maybe they will be unhappy, but does this have anything to do with me?!"

"Uh--" James Wade stared at Zhang Yang for a few seconds before taking a deep breath and nodding vigorously, "Thank you, I think I understand."

Zhang Yang also smiled. After accepting his interview, he said goodbye and left.

After taking two steps, Zhang Yang looked up and looked at the scoreboard of Villa Park players again. On it, Aston Villa's score of 2-4 Manchester City was so dazzling. Looking at the score and on the scoreboard, his name appeared three times in the goal player column below the score, and Zhang Yang raised a smile on his lips.

Then, under the gaze of reporters, his figure disappeared into the players' corridor at Villa Park Stadium.

"What did he mean just now? Are you savoring the feeling of victory?" a local Birmingham reporter said angrily, "It's too rude."

James Wade looked at his Birmingham colleague and said, "That's what he meant, because, in his heart, it is natural that the winner has the right to enjoy all the fruits of victory."

After hearing this, the local Birmingham reporter looked at the scoreboard in dissatisfaction, then sighed and stopped talking.

If the words are rough or not, the winner does have such rights. You may be unhappy, but you can only watch.

After accepting an interview with reporters, Zhang Yang returned to the locker room to celebrate the victory with his teammates and celebrated their good start in the 2008/2009 season.

Zhang Yang obviously felt that after this Premier League game, his teammates respected him a lot and got closer. This is not the kind of superficial and verbal respect, but a kind of real respect and closeness.

However, Zhang Yang also keenly felt some unnaturalness of Bozinov and Vassel. He could understand the feelings of these two people. Whether it was Bozinov or Vassel, they were the most affected players after Zhang Yang transferred to Manchester City.

Vassel has played for three seasons at Manchester City. This is his fourth season at Manchester City. Vassel was often selected for the England team at the heyday of Aston Villa and participated in the 2002 World Cup and the 2004 European Cup. However, after coming to Manchester City, there was no Vassel in the subsequent 2006 German World Cup and the 2008 European Cup qualifiers. This can also show that the English scorer's condition is gradually declining. He was still the main player in the two seasons he had just arrived at Manchester City. However, his goal-scoring ability is indeed average. This is a low-sized, relatively fast, and flexible black forward with certain strength, but it is difficult to truly become a team's goal-reliable relying on. Therefore, Vassel has completely become a substitute and his future is bleak in Manchester City.

If Vassel's future at Manchester City is bleak, then there are great uncertainties in Bozinov's future at Manchester City. In Mark Hughes's heart, he is still willing to give Bozinov a chance. When Robinho, who is going to join the team in the legend, did not come to the team, the partnership between Zhang Yang and Bozinov will also be a very important choice for Mark Hughes. However, after today's game, he saw Zhang Yang's sudden appearance, Wright Phillips, Peterridge, Ellano and Modric, the three generals, focusing on Zhang Yang's offensive performance, Mark Hughes must have more ideas in his mind, because there is a problem with the cooperation between Bozinov and Zhang Yang. At least from the warm-up match before the season, there will be no call between the two.

If Vassel's strength declines and his condition declines, then Bodinov is completely because he is not working hard enough. In addition, his self-confidence is becoming less and less. After becoming famous at a young age, he is definitely a waste of his talents. Bodinov is definitely one. However, Bodinov is the same age as Zhang Yang, and he is only twenty-two years old this year. If he is to say that he is ruined like this, it is not necessarily the key lies in himself.

Looking at Sun Jihai, Wright Phillips, Elano, Modric, Richards and others gathered around Zhang Yang and laughed together. Bottinov and Vassel were a little disappointed when celebrating the victory of this game. Although they also knew that at this time, they should celebrate the victory with their teammates, their mood was just not getting better and they were depressed.

While the players were celebrating wildly, Manchester City coach Mark Hughes was attending the post-match press conference in the news hall of Villa Park Stadium. He had been waiting for a long time, but Aston Villa coach Martin O'Neal has not arrived.

Mark Hughes waited for about ten minutes, and Aston Villa head coach Mark Hughes was late.

After shaking hands with Martin O'Neal and Mark Hughes, they did not sit down. Instead, they looked at the many reporters on the scene and threw down a sentence: "Everyone has seen the team's performance in today's game. It's simply terrible. I have no face to apologize to the fans who came to watch the game today. In the next round of the league, everyone will see a different Aston Villa."

After saying that, Martin O'Neal nodded to his fellow Mark Hughes, he hurriedly left, leaving only the stunned Mark Hughes and more than 70 reporters at the scene. They really didn't expect Mark Hughes to have such a big reaction and left the court. It seems that the head coach was indeed quite angry at Aston Villa's defeat.

Mark Hughes was a little embarrassed when he saw Martin O'Neal leaving the seat, but Martin O'Neal, as the party who failed, could leave in anger. Mark Hughes was the party who won, so he naturally had no reason to leave like this, so he had to play a one-man show alone. Of course, Mark Hughes was certainly not disgusted with such a "one-man show", and he could even say he liked it very much.

What the reporters are most passionate about is of course asking the Manchester City head coach to evaluate Zhang Yang's performance.

Mark Hughes highly praised Zhang Yang. When facing the reporter, he was not stingy with praise. "Zhang is a great player. He has proved his greatness in Marseille and AC Milan. He doesn't need to prove anything to the fans and the media. All he has to do is lead the team to keep moving forward and win the game. It is a very lucky thing for Manchester City to get Zhang. This will be the greatest signing in Manchester City's history. He can help us win the game, just like he did today. Being able to score a hat trick in his debut and assist with one goal is the performance of a star of Zhang Yang. He brings happiness to Manchester City fans. I believe that those who have always been critical of Zhang Yang's worth need to look at today's game and consider what they should say."
