The Young Lion

Leo Youth Training Base is listed.

The new echelon coaching team meeting laid the guidelines for training newcomers.

Expansion of the medical department.

Babu went to the United States for a month to study in the United States in the summer, and brought back American physical training expertise. He will promote the experience and knowledge he learned in the club. On the physical training of the sports discipline, the United States has led the world in contemporary times. Physical training It is a separate professional field, which will help Millwall players to exercise better, and it is combined with the reasonable growth of sports equipment.

...

One piece after another, Aldridge did it himself, because Millwall used to call it nothing, and some were old and incapable of keeping up with the times, so Aldridge must ensure that the club is from top to bottom There is no problem with the construction of the framework. When everything is on the right track, he will not have to worry about it.

In mid-to-late July, the players returned one after another. When the day of assembly came, Aldridge wore club sportswear and the members of the coaching staff to the training ground. There, the players were chatting and talking about the anecdotes of summer vacations. .

"Huh? Who are you?"

Aldridge walked to the middle of the player, and somehow stretched his hand against the shoulder of a fat boy.

Pireha laughed: "Boss, he is David!"

"David? David Trezeguet? Are you his brother? Say, where the **** is he going? Don't want to be confused with a stand-in, look at your stature, far from David, look at you Your belly can be used as a trampoline, eh? Is it good elasticity?"

Aldrich reached out and patted the young man's stomach, it was really sensual.

Other players whistled and whistled.

"Yes! I said he must be posing!"

Schneider also began to fall into the hole.

Trezeguet touched his big bald head and dared not to look at Audridge with his head down, only to whisper bitterly: "Boss, it's really me."

Of course, Aldridge knew that the young man who was getting fat right now was Trezeguet, and he beckoned to the players: "Today is the first day of training, the task is very simple, go to Leo Youth Training Base for medical examination, how do you play on vacation I just don’t ask, anyway, as long as you can come back to the club without breaking the law, it’s enough, but before the start of the new season, if all the physical indicators can’t meet the standard, then sit on the bench. David, can you still run?”

"Boss, absolutely no problem!"

Having said that, Trezeguet ran out of the training ground for the first time, but compared to his vigorous figure last season, this obviously fat lad ran a little funny.

Aldrich greeted the returning players one by one, and some players also took out gift boxes and sent them to Aldridge and other coaching staff. Most of them were special souvenirs brought from their hometowns, or they went to travel to buy Hand letter.

Aldridge carried a large bag of gifts and watched the players running past them nodding with smiles.

There are only a few players in the team who have obviously gained weight. Slightly older players, especially the team’s model Southgate, Nedved, Larson, obviously maintain proper physical exercise during the holidays. And gym madmen like Gattuso and Barak have obvious muscle enhancement.

Let Craig take the players to the youth training base, and Aldridge let other first team coaches return to the hotel for a meeting.

In the conference room, he took out a schedule of the Premier League next season and let coaches have a look.

After everyone has seen it, Aldrich, like the pre-season meeting last season, first discusses the thickness of the lineup with everyone, whether the talent reserve in each position needs to be reinforced through targeted recruitment.

On the discussion of this topic, everyone's opinions are relatively unified.

Millwall, who has 30 players in the first team, is thick enough without a large-scale injury.

Aldridge followed the Premier League team for a strong and weak scoring just like last season.

"Combined with the team's scouting intelligence analysis, the Premier League next season will be able to attack the championship, at least five teams, defending champions Blackburn, Manchester United, Liverpool, Newcastle United, Arsenal. And Stable in the top of the standings, Nottingham Forest and Tottenham won third in the league last season. But this is only a conservative estimate. Every season, there will always be several teams that perform beyond expectations. And because of Mill Wall is in London, and our derby opponents are ranked in order of importance, in order: West Ham United, Chelsea, Wimbledon, Tottenham, Arsenal, Queens Park Rangers. In summary, I think Ask everyone a question: Can Millwall in the new season of the Premier League, attack the championship, and finally win the cup!"

As soon as the voice fell, the audience was shocked!

Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to the young figure sitting at the end of the long table.

Aldridge's eyes were as if he were tortured, and his handsome face was as cold as ice.

This is a very cautious topic.

The team's established goals for the season are related to the plan for the entire season.

If a team has no ideals and goals, it will naturally lack motivation, take a step by step and see where to play, where to count, where the game is played, you want to achieve a high goal, the game kicked down, give yourself one Under the steps, such a team will never become a climate.

Just like last season, Aldridge’s goal was to train the team, and his performance was not important. Therefore, when the Premier League was far ahead, he did not shift his goal to the cup. The season is a whole, with a strong continuity, and the consequences of winning Long Shu It may be a chicken fly. Many teams in history have been competitive in the multi-line but eventually lost everything. The big reason is lack of greed, overestimation of their own strength, and the team suffered under high expectations. The blow will also have a knock-on effect.

The members of the coaching staff bowed their heads in contemplation.

Premier League champion?

The myth of the newly promoted champion? !

This is nothing new. In English football, almost 20 years ago, the first year of Nottingham Forest’s promotion to the first division, destroyed the dream of Liverpool’s three consecutive championships that wanted to establish a red dynasty, but that miracle is in This is the only time in the history of nearly 50 years of English football.

In Ligue 1, there are more teams to win the championship with promotion, Saint Etienne, Bordeaux, Monaco have done it.

As for the Kaiser myth, that is still two years later.

Aldridge has the ambition to challenge the throne, but after carefully analyzing the Nottingham Forest Wonder, it is difficult for Millwall to replicate that miracle.

In the 42 rounds of the league at the time, Nottingham Forest only lost three games, the reason is not that they have the strongest lineup in the league, the biggest factor is the tactical victory of Brian Crawford, when England is playing high and playing long When passing the simple tactics of rushing and hanging, the smooth attack of Nottingham Forest’s ground pass attack was like a blast of wind, and eventually a huge tornado was formed, which raged the entire first-class stadium and even threw the defending champion Liverpool by seven points. The gap finally ended.

Although it was not an epoch-making tactical change, it caused a huge wave in England, and Millwall did not have a strong tactical advantage to suppress the Premier League.

But the desire for the championship, let Aldridge throw this topic out.

If the entire coaching staff can convince him with reasons, he is willing to accompany everyone crazy.

Jenson spoke first, he coughed twice, and then said: "Aldrich, I think we have to discuss this topic sensibly. First of all, although there are thirty men in the first team of Millwall, there are players under the age of twenty. How much? Half of it! They have talent and ability, but they are still growing. The game time must be reasonable, and they cannot be relied on to play all games in one season and play stable. And the Premier League is too competitive, as you said before you Those strong teams, they will never despise us, because playing against us means that they must score three points, and the derby game, even, we play against the middle and lower teams, it will be very tragic, because we are The relegated opponents in the other party's heart have defeated us in order to let them go ashore."

Aldrich heard the words and closed his eyes to think.

Jensen said it makes sense. Nottingham Forest Marvel also has an advantage, that is, Nottingham Forest comes down in a season, there are no few derby games that must be exhausted!

In Millwall, London, there are two dead enemies in the Premier League, plus other opponents with various derby relations. In 38 games, more than 10 games are derby games, which is not much different from the decisive battle. It will also rise, and the likelihood of an increase in incidental injuries during the same period will increase.

Aldrich gave up the idea of ​​impacting the championship in the new season. Although it is very tempting, it is a bit out of reality. After all, Millwall is still too young to withstand any negative impact, and put too much pressure on these players. Let them be bound by yoke.

After all, the league is a long one. No one knows what kind of accidents will happen during the long run of nine months.

But Aldridge still said in a deep voice: "But Millwall needs a championship. We need a championship to keep the players. If all four are empty next season, even I have no confidence to keep anyone who wants to leave the team."

Yes, in order to retain all the players on the team, Aldridge must have a championship. There is a championship trophy that players can see and touch to retain them, inspire them, and give them the motivation to leave. Create greater ambition and confidence for them!
