Chapter 117
The two sides have been in a state of panic, and the two sides have been in a state of panic.
Jonathan, the agent on the other end of the phone, continued: "Regarding your transfer, according to my experience, Aston Villa should not let you go easily, and Aston Villa has reached the FA Cup final. The team's opponent in the final is Watford. You still have a great chance of winning the championship."
Jonathan paused for a few seconds and continued to talk to Xia Yuan: "And Villa is also likely to be promoted to the Premier League after the end of the season, which means that next season will face the problem of fighting on two fronts. Even if other clubs offer a sky-high transfer fee, Villa Club will not let you leave."
Xia Yuan agreed with Jonathan's analysis. He continued to say to Jonathan on the other end of the phone: "It doesn't matter. In fact, I am not in a hurry to leave the team. I will consider the transfer when the contract is about to end. I just want to play well now."
Jonathan suddenly remembered something, and he said quickly: "Oh, Xia, there is one more thing!"
"The German transfer market has announced your latest value. Congratulations, your value has reached 50 million euros! It is the highest value in the same age group!"
"Okay, I know."
Xia Yuan is not very interested in whether his value rises or falls.
After all, this money can't be given to himself.
Compared to always paying attention to the value, he hopes to focus on training and competition.
As long as he and Aston Villa win more, his value will naturally get higher and higher.
The next day.
In the Aston Villa training base, the players trained as usual.
At this moment, it was early April.
There are only the last six games left before the end of the Championship!
At present.
Aston Villa is still 4 points away from the first-ranked Norwich.
The championship is quite intense!
The team needs to ensure that they win all the last six games to have a chance to win the Championship.
According to the promotion rules set by the FA, only the champion and runner-up of the Championship can be directly promoted to the Premier League next season, and the third to sixth teams will play in the play-offs to compete for the last qualification to be promoted to the Premier League.
In other words, the role of the third place in the Championship is the same as that of the sixth place in the league...
If Aston Villa wants to be promoted directly to the Premier League, it must at least surpass the second-ranked Leeds United in the standings!
Three days later, Aston Villa needs to go to the away game to challenge Rotherham, and then Aston Villa will return to Villa Park to face the challenge of Bristol City.
After playing these two games, Aston Villa will go to Leeds United's away game.
And the team currently ranked second in the league is Leeds United!
The difference between the two teams is only three points!
As long as Aston Villa can beat Leeds United away, they can move up to second place in the Championship standings!
Soon, Aston Villa ushered in the game against Rotherham.
Currently, Rotherham ranks 13th in the Championship.
Ranked in the middle.
This season, Rotherham can basically be described as having no desire.
Successfully relegated, but there is no way to impact the top six in the league.
Naturally.
When facing Aston Villa, which had just eliminated Manchester City, there was no hard fight.
Aston Villa scored just ten minutes into the game.
It was still striker Abraham.
After establishing a leading advantage early, Aston Villa successfully controlled the rhythm of the game under their feet.
At the end of the first half, Aston Villa scored again.
Two to zero!
Although Rotherham is playing at home, it is behind Aston Villa in both strength and fighting spirit.
The loss was a foregone conclusion.
After the start of the second half, Aston Villa went all out.
Abraham, McGinn, Grealish and other players scored goals one after another.
The score finally settled at 5-0! Easily beat Rotherham!
Xia Yuan also played well in today's game. Although he did not score a goal, he also got several assists.
Afterwards.
Aston Villa's players returned to Villa Park without stopping.
On April 13, Aston Villa faced Bristol City.
Currently, Bristol City ranks 15th in the league. The strength of this team is obviously weaker than Rotherham!
And
And it was an away game.
With Bristol City's current state, the possibility of defeating the powerful Aston Villa is almost zero!
The facts proved that it was true.
Less than 8 minutes after the start of the first half, Xia Yuan made a long pass from the wing into the penalty area of Bristol City, and Aston Villa's center forward Abraham took off! !
Heading the ball!
The goalkeeper sighed...
Villa, who played at home, scored the first goal.
Ten minutes later.
Aston Villa scored the second goal of the game, and it was Abraham again!
The score came to 2-0.
Four minutes later.
Aston Villa got a corner kick opportunity.
The player who scored this time became the central defender Elphick...
Less than 30 minutes into the first half, Aston Villa was already leading by three goals.
It can be seen that after Aston Villa eliminated Manchester City in the FA Cup, every Aston Villa player gained great confidence.
In the Championship, they dared to take action and played with ease!
Two minutes before the end of the first half, midfielder McGinn tried a long shot in the midfield. Unexpectedly, this super long shot from 30 meters away actually broke through Bristol City's goal.
Four to zero! !
The suspense of the game was completely gone!
Shortly after the start of the second half, Dean Smith took the initiative to rotate personnel and withdrew several goal scorers.
However, even after the main players were withdrawn, Bristol City's defense still couldn't withstand the impact of Aston Villa...
In the 64th minute.
Substitute striker Adomah scored with a header.
The score was fixed at five to zero.
Aston Villa successfully defeated Bristol City with a hearty victory.
After this game.
Aston Villa has won 16 consecutive victories on all fronts.
In the Championship, it won 14 consecutive victories!
Next game.
Aston Villa's opponent is Leeds United, which ranks second.
As long as Aston Villa can beat Leeds United away, Villa will be able to overtake in the standings and successfully enter the second place in the league!
There is even a chance to compete with Norwich for the first place in the league!
So!
This game is a battle that Aston Villa absolutely cannot lose!
April 19, 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
Elland Road Stadium.
The game between Aston Villa and Leeds United is about to begin!
