Marco Asensio ‘Is on Fire’. The assignment of Aston Villa has sat in wonder. Whether as a starter or as a substitute, the former of Mallorca, Espanyol and Real Madrid does not stop ‘to invoice’.
Before the witches (1-3), in the first leg of the Champions League, he was the superhero of the ‘villains’. He jumped into the field with 1-1, ”he substituted Rashford in 64′-and ended up marking, penalty, the final 1-3 in 88 ‘. A goal that feeds its extraordinary streak: it adds five goals in the seven games (338 minutes) that has played since it arrived in Villa Park.

“The attention is very good. I am very happy with my classmates and with the coaching staff. They give me a lot of confidence so I try to do my best. Things are going well, but I want to mark more, give more to this team. This is my goal,” recognizes the Spanish international.

The best revulsive in the history of the Champions League?
Before the witches, he increased his legend of ‘Game Changer’ (‘Changer’) in Champions. Asensio is the player who has entered the bench (50) in the history of the tournament. Only 20 of the 70 games he has played since his debut in 2016-17 has done it as a starter.
Asensio scored the two goals of the ‘villains’ against Cardiff in the eighths of the FA Cup.
There are more. He is the first player who reaches the double figures in Champions entering as a reserve. Ten of his 13 goals in the highest European competition has scored them without starting.
“Both he and Rashford have a great reputation. They are hungry and want to succeed. They both work hard and have no great egos or, at least, we have not seen them. They have adapted very well. They are two bright players and I am delighted that they are here,” said his teammate John McGinn.

He already has a song: “He went to Madrid and …”
Marco Asensio has won, with goals, the love of Villa Park. The Balearic has ‘put in his pocket’ to the ‘villains’, who, in fact, have already created his own song.
“He went to Madrid, He Won the League in Spain; He Went To Paris, He Did The Same Again; His Boots Are Magic, Don’t You, Don’s You know, you don’t know; your name is Marco, Marco Asensio. “
The villa already fears that they ‘raise’ in summer
The extraordinary performance of Asensio has a ‘bad’ part. The villa, who already tried to sign it before he arrived at the PSG, has no purchase option for the Spanish and that hinders his continuity, no matter how much Asensio wanted to continue in Villa Park.
The Spanish player arrived at Aston Villa on the last day of the market.
Offers are not going to be missing and from England there are those who assure that Paris Saint-Germain could use him as ‘currency’ in summer, along with Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos, to try to lower the possible arrival of Alexander Isak to the Park of the Princes. Will continue …
