The Young Lion

In Europe, in addition to the club's strong relationship influence in the country, there are special relationships between the giants, such as rivals, derby, cooperation and the like.

Millwall has become a new giant. In this circle, he doesn’t want to make enemies everywhere. That’s no good. Just like the G14 can challenge UEFA, you offend all the giants that can affect the rules. Then, this is the self-existence. .

At the level of giants, you need to broaden your path to doing player business, because you need world-class players. When Millwall is unable to become self-sufficient one day, there is one more way to recruit than it is not.

Like Juventus in Serie A, Millwall will naturally not establish a good basis for dialogue or cooperation with each other without respecting Millwall.

However, representatives of clubs like Galliani, who have been on all sides, have not been able to make contributions to Millwall in recent years, but at least they have a good cooperation experience with Aldridge, which increases the basis of mutual trust and respect, and Have a good relationship.

Millwall can enter the G14, and the efforts made by AC Milan cannot be ignored. Although that is the player Galliani wants Millwall, as far as the cooperation effect is concerned, both sides take their own needs, and there is no one who has lost anything. , Or who has encroached on the other party's interests, such a situation is like Aldridge.

He also did not expect Millwall to have the relationship foundation that Manchester United and Real Madrid have close to half a century. Like a generation of Real Madrid great Bernabeu can send charcoal at the lowest point of Manchester United, and can say when Real Madrid, which ruled Europe in the sky, lost to Manchester United: If Real Madrid must lose, I am happy to lose to Manchester United.

In the past, the intersection of giants, in the past, Millwall had no conditions and no capital. Now, they are actually talking about the topic and the immortal legend after 50 years and 100 years.

Because of this, the opening game of Millwall's new stadium, Aldridge invited the last UEFA dynasty ruler AC Milan, Galliani readily agreed, which itself is a manifestation of the continued friendship between the two sides.

Millwall wants to unveil the new stadium decently. Of course, he needs a decent opponent. Looking at Europe, he can only have a handful of clubs with more historical influence and more influence than AC Milan.

After the joke with Galliani was over, Odrić pushed open the door of a VIP box, which was full of people. When he walked in, the scene fell silent.

Arthur haha ​​rushed towards Aldridge with a big smile, hugged him, and then put away his smile and took Aldridge's hand seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Congratulations, son, you have become the Millwall Club The greatest character, well, you are the hero of all Millwalls!"

Aldridge grinned and put his arm around Arthur's neck, saying, "Aren't you also a hero? Mr. Chairman."

"Hahaha, I just dip your light. Everyone knows that I am a mascot.

"Ha, mascot? Is the demon exorcism? Ha ha ha."

Aldrich separated from Arthur, hugged his eldest brother Barnett, and then bent down to talk with his nephew Bowen.

The box is large and there are many people. In addition to Aldridge's family, there are also their friends. Aldrich's friend Carter is also here.

Finally, he walked to the corner of the box, where Melanie stood, in the comfortable seat in front of her. Two one-year-olds, Burt and Earl, looked curiously at the court landscape outside the window.

Next to them, there was a little boy over a year old sitting quietly in the seat. Behind the seat, a stylish couple looked at Aldridge with a smile. The seat was the crystallization of their love, the eldest son Brooklyn.

"Mr. Hall, congratulations, today is a big day for you and Millwall."

"Thank you, David."

Aldridge shook hands with Beckham. Beckham was dragged by Victoria, who probably accompanied Melanie.

Aldrich turned his eyes to Melanie and Victoria and smiled: "Congratulations, the new album is very hot."

Victoria asked sharply: "Did you buy it?"

Aldridge was caught flat-footed and embarrassed: "Uh, the work is busy, so, uh, the new season will start soon, I will give each player a copy of your album."

Victoria smiled like a flower and turned her head towards Melanie: "Look, that's what men are, flattering you on the mouth, actually doing nothing, and making up after being exposed."

Melanie smiled and didn't speak.

Victoria gave Beckham a wink. Beckham picked up Brooklyn. They walked to the other side of the box and ordered some food to sit down and taste.

Aldridge went to the seat and crouched down before Burt and Earl's eyes. The reaction of the two little guys stunned Aldridge.

"father!"

Aldridge looked at the two sons incredulously, raised his head and looked at Melanie, and asked, "Do they speak?"

Melanie smiled as she saw Aldridge's "frightened" expression.

When she laughed enough, Aldrich held her two sons and kissed her enough, she sighed: "They seem to have recognized people, you haven't been to Liverpool before, they kept touching with their hands one day TV screen, because the TV is broadcasting the press conference you attended in Asia, and then I took your picture and taught them to call them dad, the effect is not bad, at least I have not encountered others screaming."

Aldridge gently held the small hands of two smiling innocent sons, feeling a little guilty in his heart.

He originally planned to go back to London to Liverpool, but to catch up with Rooney, he canceled the plan, fearing that the media would chase him down and disrupt the lives of his son and Melanie’s parents.

Aldridge looked at the time, he should go to the game to direct the game, he kissed the foreheads of his two sons reluctantly, then stood up and walked in front of Melanie, asked softly: "Let them stay in London for two God?"

Melanie stared at Aldridge's eyes and asked, "Why don't you let me stay here too?"

Aldridge looked away and shook his head: "This topic has already been discussed, and it is over."

He has a new life, but he has not turned against Melanie because he is the father of Burt and Earl and Melanie is the mother. This relationship is estimated to make it impossible for him and Melanie to draw a line in his life. Become a passerby.

But now Aldridge wants to let the two sons stay in London for a few more days, and the father and son can spend longer time together, which must be approved by Melanie.

Melanie's expression was silent for a moment and nodded. "I'll pick them up after three days."

Aldridge nodded with a smile, greeted the others and left the box. On the way to the stadium, he murmured: I want two days, you give me three days, what the **** are you thinking...

From the moment Aldridge appeared on the stadium and walked into the audience's field of vision, the cheers of the entire stadium did not stop for a moment, and the momentum became louder.

Millwall’s fan organizations organized an orderly occupation of the stands. At the edge of the upper stands, the fan organizations hung out their own drawn banners.

One of them displayed the trophy won in each year of the past six years. In the 94-95 season, it was the Champions League trophy. Before 94, the fans wrote a word: Wait...

wait for what?

The outside world is interpreted as waiting for the arrival of the king Aldridge!

Lion Roar fans "occupied" the South Stand, with a huge portrait hanging above the stand. Audrey's upper body hand-drawn drawing is the image of his finger to direct the game. The background is the male lion on the Millwall team emblem and there is a line next to it. Slogan: King of Europe!

There are also banners organized by major fans on other stands. For example, Nedved's avatar is rendered as a steel warrior and marked as God of War!

Ronaldinho's smart dribbling action is marked as a wizard.

Henry and Larson's fist and roar, marked as the killer king.

...

These fans organize self-made slogans or banners hanging on the stands. After passing the club review, as long as they have positive and positive significance, they are allowed to hang on the stands for a long time. As long as they do not affect the spectators' sight and meet the requirements of the stadium, then the club official It will not be removed, and it will not allow other fans to change it privately. Even if it is to be removed in the future, it will be the result of consultation between the club and the fan organization. Assuming Larsen transfers tomorrow, he will definitely not be able to continue with his banners and slogans. Left in the stands.

Before the start of the game, Aldrich first shook hands with AC Milan coach Zaccheroni, thanking the other party for leading the team to this meaningful warm-up match with Millwall, while expressing apology.

There will be a delay in the game, because Millwall’s family portrait this year is intended to be held on this day, this moment, at the opening ceremony of the new stadium.

Millwall’s family members were not the only ones taking pictures of Millwall’s family this year. The reporters on the sidelines of Fleet Street had been taking pictures, hoping to take today’s pictures from all angles.

All members of the Millwall first team wore new jerseys for the new season and debuted, pushing the atmosphere to a new climax.

The staff set up benches on the court, Aldridge smiled and called the coaching staff to his eyes, and he was still interested in making jokes.

"Vilas, your tie is crooked!"

Aldridge shouted, Boas immediately looked down at his tie, and then asked Klinsmann to help him see if it was neat, Klinsmann laughed: "He is playing you!"

The first-team coaching staff sat on the bench with a smile, Aldridge was centered and smiled, and the first-team players stood behind them.

The photographer who photographed raised his head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Audridge, can you control your players?"

Aldridge put on a half-day expression, but the photographer said OK, and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"

"Look at who is behind you."

Aldrich turned his head and looked at a serious expression of Ronaldinho with his hands behind his head and raised his chest. Aldrich didn't have to guess what was going on, laughing and cursing: "Give me honestly! I don't want to pack you up today!"

All the teammates around laughed. Ronaldinho had been making gestures on Aldridge's head just now.

After the photographer gave a thumbs up, Millwall's new season first-team family photo shoot was completed.

Aldridge beckoned to the sidelines again, allowing Najib to bring in other youth team coaches and players.

In any case, this year is a milestone year and has a positive impact on the entire club. He hopes that the youth team players can feel all this today.

A group photo of more than a hundred people is less formal, and Aldrich stands around Najib’s neck and stands in the middle, with people in front.

Suddenly a head got in front of him, Aldridge looked down and found it was Ronaldo. I saw the boy asked straightforwardly, "Boss, why didn't I appear in the first team's roster? I think I can Play the Premier League!"

Aldridge mercilessly pushed Ronaldo's face back and smiled: "I let you go to the Premier League. Do you want to be crippled as a minor? Be honest, be patient and take back the Youth League title for me next summer Let’s talk with the Youth FA Cup champion."

"Can I play the Premier League then?"

Ronaldo turned back and asked Aldridge, seemingly talking about a deal.

Aldridge had to keep pushing his face to point him in front of the camera, laughing and scolding: "You get me the championship trophy first! Little boy!"

"I will be an adult soon!"

"It's only half a year before I'm 16 years old, don't say it right away! Point me at the camera, are you looking for a draw?"

It took a lot of hard work for these more than one hundred people to keep all their heads, but the effect was not bad. The person who shot the most clearly was Messi. He stood at the front.
