The strongest winger

Chapter 220 Champions League Playoffs

******
In the new season, Valencia is now the most complete staff. Except for the former Arsenal player Edu who joined for free due to a serious injury, everyone took a family photo under the arrangement of the club that afternoon.

The team also has a lot of changes in personnel, so the jersey number has also changed a lot. However, because Ai Luo returned to the team the latest, his favorite No. 7 jersey was asked by David Villa, and those numbers in the front are already available.

Therefore, Ai Luo can only choose the number 22, which is the highest. This is because the number left by Di Le Mans who just transferred to Ligue [-] Le Mans the day before yesterday.

After Aiello returned to the team, the Spanish media swarmed in, mainly local reporters from Valencia. The main topics of the interviews revolved around his goals for the team in the new season.

Regarding these topics, Ai Luo answered very confidently, "Of course my goal this season is to win the La Liga championship! And the UEFA Champions League..."

"You mean to break the monopoly of Real Madrid and Barcelona?"

Aiello quickly replied, "Yes!"

"The request for personal honor?"

"Of course there is!"

……

……

Aiello's return made the fans of Valencia very happy, and the leader of the bat guard, Joe Winnie, also represented the welcome and friendly blessings of the diehard fans of Valencia.

In the new season, Valencia is already fully capable of winning the La Liga this season. Although there is no rush for Real Madrid and Barcelona in terms of individual players' concentration, the personal strength of the players is indeed unquestionable.

From the fact that the team took the initiative to renew the contract with Ai Luo and improve the treatment, it can be seen from these simple details that Valencia is ambitious in the new season!

With the transfer of Chen Tao, Zhao Xuri, Gao Lin, Feng Xiaoting and Hao Junmin, Tan Wangsong, who is the main right-sided barrier of the Chinese National Youth Team, has also attracted the attention of foreign teams.

His offensive and defensive balance and fierce defensive characteristics made CSKA Moscow look for him, but they were only willing to spend 200 million euros to introduce him.

Faced with this price, Sichuan Guancheng naturally disagreed, so...the two sides began to argue again, and Papa Adrian, as the agent, naturally accompanied the dispute. Anyway, the transfer is a sure thing, but there is a disagreement on the transfer amount.

After losing six outstanding young players, these domestic Chinese Super League clubs are not willing to accept transfer applications from foreign clubs. After all, the future of the team still depends on young people to take over. If they are all sold, the team will not have to play!

At this time, the relevant leaders of the Chinese XX Football Association also stood up and said: "It is a good thing to go abroad to study abroad, but this cannot be done by a handful of people. It needs to be supported by strength. Now many young people seem to be very impetuous. It is time to calm down..."

And these words of the Football Association can be regarded as beating those players who want to study abroad. The subconscious meaning is to wait until you have the strength to study abroad. Now that the staff is full, you can't go anymore...

Before the third qualifying round with Monaco, Valencia and the city brother Levante came to a friendly match. In this game, Aiello did not start the game, but did not start at the Mesilla Stadium until the No.15 minute of the second half.

"Now it's——"

The live broadcast dragged out the sound.

"——Ai!"

What's interesting is that when Aiello played, the whole stadium seemed to tremble slightly, and the entire stadium was full of intoxicating shouts.

The fans are like this, what more can a husband ask for?
It didn't take long for Aiello to score in the 3rd minute of his debut in the new season. Navarro intercepted the ball in the backcourt, then passed it to Albelda, and the latter completed a beautiful long pass assist.

Ai Luo understood it, and at the same time that Albelda passed the ball, he accelerated his advance. The reaction speed caught Levante's entire defense line off guard. He appeared at the football's landing point as quickly as lightning.

And what he did next was very simple. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, he tiptoed and the football flew into the empty goal.

At the same time, the skies over the Mestalla Stadium once again erupted with an astonishing burst of energy.

Subsequently, Ai Luo assisted new aid David Villa to score a goal, and finally helped the team beat the opponent with a score of 3:1 and won the friendly match.

Although he won the game, the head coach Flores was not happy. Vicente, who only came back in March this year, was injured again before the end of the game, which cast a shadow over his challenge to Real Madrid and Barcelona in the new season.

Because Vicente occupies a very important position in his lineup for the new season, as a traditional Spanish winger, but his skills are better than traditional Spanish wingers, and his goal awareness is also stronger.

This also made Flores very fancy to him, but the sudden injury made him a little overwhelmed.

After the game, Flores said in an interview with reporters: "I firmly believe that this is just a small injury in Gillen's career. It's not a big deal. He will get better, because the team needs him very much!"

Reporters then asked about rumors about Aiello's transfer.

"According to reports from Manchester, Sir Alex Ferguson expressed his appreciation for Aiello, and they have offered a transfer fee of more than 500 million. I don't know..."

And the reporter was interrupted by Flores before he finished speaking. He said: "Ai is the top scorer and best player in the World Youth Championship in the Netherlands. His future in the club is also bright. We have no intention of selling him, and his future is also in Valencia. He is not for sale!!!"

"But... when he was in China, it is said that he (Aiello) had private exchanges with Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney..."

"Please! Can you use your brain? Can't young people communicate in private??" Flores also became angry when faced with aggressive questions from the reporters.

It didn't take long for the team's press officer, Mercedes Uri, to announce the end of the press conference.

******
"According to the club doctor's test, Vicente Guillen is just a recurrence of an old injury, and he is fine. He only needs half a month of recuperation before he can devote himself to the team's preparations for the new season..."

"Valencia Sports" football column

Flores breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the test report just brought by the team doctor. In his mind, besides Aiello, Vicente is the most important thing in this team now. Both of them are wingers.
It's just that Vicente will not be able to participate in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League three days later, but...the home game against Morocco, a lonely giant in Ligue [-], should be no problem.

But this is not the case. Valencia played very hard in this game at Mestalla. If the old goalkeeper Canizares maintained a very good state, Valencia would have to accept the possibility of conceding the first goal in the first half.

Ai Luo, who shined in the World Youth Championship, fell into the quagmire of the opponent's foul in this game. If he hadn't grasped the awareness of self-protection well, he would have been thrown off the game long ago.

Aiello, the team's strongest player, was defended without a temper, which caused Valencia to be slightly soft on offense.

In the second half, Flores made a substitution adjustment, and new aid David Villa replaced Ferrer to maintain the offensive pressure on Monaco.

However, what everyone did not expect was that David Villa, who had just joined this season, helped the team take the lead in the 5th minute of playing, which made the new head coach Flores very excited, and he also performed a classic substitution on the spot.

As David Villa opened the scoring for Valencia, Valencia's offense seemed to start immediately. After 2 minutes, David Villa pulled the ball out of the penalty area to play for Aiello.

In the end, this game also defeated Ligue 2 No.0 Monaco with a score of 3:[-] at home in Valencia, making a good start for qualifying for the Champions League.

"Flores defeated the Monaco coached by Didier Deschamps 2-0 in Valencia's first important game, making the team's path to the Champions League clear... And the new aid David Villa, who came off the bench in this game, also showed his worth. He told the whole of Spain that he was indeed worth 200 million yuan! And it turned out that he was worth more than 200 million yuan..."

"Valencia Sports Daily" football column.

"From this year's World Youth Championship in the Netherlands, Ai almost single-handedly sent the Chinese National Youth Team to the championship. In the quarter-finals, he performed a hat-trick to walk Spain out. The first two games of this season also showed a good state. Although the first half of the game fell into the quagmire of the opponent's foul,...he still found a way to score for the team. This season we can have higher expectations for Valencia..."

"Valencia Sports Daily" Enrique Wien column.

"Valencia defeated the Ligue [-] team Monaco with two goals without bloodshed. The new aid David Villa also showed his comprehensive side. He can score goals while also assisting his teammates to score. The old goalkeeper Canizares is not old. The strength of the midfield is also quite good. All of this seems to predict that Valencia has the qualifications to challenge Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​​​but do they really have this qualification?"

"Aspen" commented.

"After the amazing performance of last season, I believe Valencia's Ai will fall into the rookie wall this season... Ladies and gentlemen, do you still remember what his trick is? Yes! It's speed!! Unparalleled speed, but did everyone see it in this game? The defense was almost useless in the first half. If it weren't for the slackness of Monaco's defense in the second half, he would not have easily scored a goal...I believe that in the new season of La Liga, he will face a tighter defense. He will lose his advantage, and sinking will be his only way forward..."

A column report by the well-known reporter Juan Carlos of "World Sports Daily".

Another La Liga team that needs to participate in the third round of the Champions League play-offs, Villarreal, also played well, beating visiting Everton 2:1 at home.
