The Young Lion

Sand’s bar has long been a gathering place for Millwall’s die-hard fans. In the early years, Aldridge would occasionally meet with friends here. A photo of Aldridge with the boss, employees, and friends was hanging on the wall of the bar. This is the attraction of this bar and the pride of Sand.

Sander, who was middle-aged, wiped his glass in the afternoon. The bar was already full of guests, and everyone was waiting for the TV broadcast to start.

"Hey Sander, if Millwall won today, how about you asking us each for a glass of wine?"

Sander chuckled and said, "Today our opponent is Chelsea. Are you my fool? We won! If you are a man, every time Millwall scores a goal, you ask everyone to have a glass of wine and I will give you How about 30% off?"

There was a roar in the bar, and the head pick was not too wordy. He took out a stack of money and pressed it under the wine glass in front of Sand. He smiled and said, "Look at your stinginess, I invite me, please, the mad lion scores a goal, I Please have a glass of wine. If Kaka scores a goal, I will ask for two glasses."

"Huh? Do you like Kaka?"

"It's my daughter who likes him and can't stand her. The bedroom is covered with photos of Kaka. By the way, you have such a good relationship with Audridge. Help me ask him for a signed photo of Kaka?"

Sander smiled bitterly: "I don't help with this busyness. It's the most critical time of the season. I won't trouble him."

"After that season."

"He is going to lead the team to the World Cup!"

"Oh, why am I always forgetting this, haha, if you have a chance, please do me a favor."

"Okay, I wrote down. Since you are so generous, I am not stingy. If you ask everyone for your wine, I will give you a 50% discount."

Bang Bang Bang!

The middle-aged man who paid for the money barked at the bar and said, "Look, how profitable Sander is!"

Amidst the clamor of the crowd, Sander first collected the money under the cup in front of him.

When the TV picture began to broadcast the game, the crowd in the bar sang the song of the self-composed song by Millwall fans. At least before the game, there will be a cheerful atmosphere in the bar. Then, as the game progresses, it will explode. Wave after wave of passion.

Sander looked up at the picture on the ceiling TV. The camera locked Audridge, who was taking off his suit on the sidelines. His eyes were in a trance, as if he saw the kid sitting on his tape store and holding a notebook to analyze the video of the game. .

Aldrich, fifteen years have passed. You let Millwall stand above the crowd, and countless people are proud...

Vera Park Stadium.

"Welcome to Villa Park, a game of the England FA Cup semi-finals this season is about to kick off here, and Millwall and Chelsea will compete for a ticket to the Millennium Stadium, not surprisingly, Millwall’s main players are all sitting on the bench today. They will recuperate for the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals next week. Chelsea will do their best. Can Ranieri reverse Chelsea play? What about Millwall's absolute disadvantage? Let us wait and see."

Today the temperature was suddenly higher and the sunlight was dazzling. Aldridge came to the stadium and felt hot. He took off his suit. He stood on the sidelines and dressed in shirts, ties and trousers.

Ranieri is obviously not as easy as Aldridge. Chelsea can hardly touch the Champions League next season. Now there is still the FA Cup left to fight for, of course.

Aldrich claimed before the game that Millwall would try to balance the game as much as possible, making it impossible for Chelsea’s experience to play out, while the striker Trident, Zola, Hasselbaink, Goodjohnson would not give In any of their chances, Millwall will limit Chelsea's offense as much as possible before the penalty area.

Ranieri expected that Audridge might play a defensive counterattack. After all, Millwall sent a bench to play.

The atmosphere of confrontation in the stands has declined. Chelsea fans are really numb. Millwall is the seventh season of the Premier League this season. In the past seven seasons, the two teams have met almost 20 times in the league and cup games. Chelsea have never won a victory!

In fact, this should not be too difficult to accept the record, in the eyes of non-Chelsea fans, of course.

Just like in the original history, Ferguson took charge of the Red Devils. How many battle records have been set? Otherwise, where did the latecomer Moyes get a record of unbeaten N games in a season?

Mo said Chelsea, a stronger team than them, may not have a good record against Millwall. Only in some cups or non-critical campaigns did Millwall get a bargain.

Of course Chelsea fans are unacceptable. Not only is the stadium record bothering them now, but also the future of Chelsea. The club is heavily in debt. This is the life and death of the team.

Aldrich was in a state of misfortune at this time.

How much money was burned?

Is it happy to spend money that is not yours?

Many Serie A teams have experienced financial crises, and there are several top teams in England that have fallen into financial crises.

No one is forcing you to borrow money, but it's not great to borrow, and there is nothing to blame.

Before the game, the smoke bombs were put. It was really in the game that Millwall surprised Ranieri from the opening.

balance?

Balance a fart!

At the beginning of the game, Chelsea organized a wave of attacks, Millwall formed a crazy press in the midfield.

Originally, Millwall released a variant of the 442 formation, looking at their starting list, Pedretti, De Rossi, Alonso, Ramor, Kaka, Villa, this is the starting midfielder 6 people , Obviously weakened the striker and strengthened the midfield, Ranieri believes that Aldridge either said that the balance is true, or is playing anti-anti, but the trend of the game is not what he expected.

De Rossi guarded the front of the defender line and acted as a barrier. Pedretti cooperated with Alonso to launch a crazy breadcrumb interception. Ramor pressed the midfield line from behind.

At the beginning of the game, Pedretti steals the ball from Zenden's feet. Zenden is innocent. Apparently Petit passed the ball to himself before and after facing Lamore and Kaka, and it was a knife mountain ball. He and Pedretti went to grab the ball at the same time. He first touched the ball and couldn't finish the kick. Because he couldn't find a point around him, he stopped the ball and was intercepted by Pedretti.

Pedretti steals the ball and crosses the ball to Alonso. The latter passes the ball straight ahead. Lamor, who takes the ball in front of Petit, passes the ball horizontally and then passes directly to Billy on the right. Ya, Villa retreated to take the ball. When he retreated, the other side of the vertical cross, Kaka rushed forward, attracting Terry to come out and press the defensive Villa to control the ball, and then passed diagonally behind. When Ca got into the penalty area, he led the ball and took a slanting step. He drove past Desaili, who is nearly 34 years old. At the same time, he had a shooting angle. Kaka volleyed the goal from a small angle!

"Milwall scored a goal! Beautiful goal, what formation did Millwall play today? 433? Or 442? In short, they built a huge advantage in the midfield, giving the opponent a strong pressure to organize the attack. After the midfield interception, he quickly launched a fast break, Kaka helped Millwall to open the record!"

Aldridge nodded with a smile. Although this season is the first season for Kaka to join Millwall, his growth in all aspects has satisfied the coaching staff.

Excellent talent and professionalism make Kaka a threat in just one season. Although there are still limitations, at least he has the offensive space. When his teammates help out, he knows how to use his advantages and he does not hesitate. , With a firm and unwavering heart!

When the talents in this area are tapped, it is necessary to further develop his ability under a controlled tactical system. After all, Millwall will be restricted by his opponents in most games, reducing their speed threat.

If Ranieri's heart was hit hard, he felt incredible, really incredible!

No matter the main lineup or the backup lineup, Millwall has a set of tailor-made powerful tactics, which can be adjusted according to the personnel.

Obviously, it can play a good power, but Aldridge today suppressed Chelsea on targeted restrictions.

Should I say that Aldridge is dedicated? Or is he always trying boldly to break through himself?

Because of his dedication, he will not nibble at his old book, and will do his best for each game, against different opponents, to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses, and seize the weaknesses of opponents to fight death!

Obviously, Chelsea lack field control players, the core of the organization, even if it is the offensive and defensive conversion center, to have a first-class level, they do not have.

Petit has not been in the same state since he moved to Chelsea. The best Petit is Arsenal’s Petit, France’s Petit, not Chelsea’s Petit, so there is a flaw in the midfield defense. Second, Chelsea faced with Millwall's compressed midfield, and the crazy press centered on the midfield. To break this game, Chelsea needs to make full use of the width of the field. Only by constantly shifting and pulling the width away can you avoid Mill. Wall focused on intercepting the area.

However, in this style of play, first of all, you need to have the right player, or Manchester United's golden wings, with the central axis dispatching back and forth. The opponent wants to grab and ran past the ball? Either the team has played to the extreme and runs in a wide range, but Chelsea itself still has some veterans. In terms of the team's running ability, it is obviously not as good as Millwall's gangster.

Ranieri frowned, and Aldridge stood still on the sidelines.

Klinsmann whispered on the coach seat: "Actually today, our strength comparison with Chelsea is half a catty, but we are still advanced. Under such circumstances, you have to admire Aldridge's coaching ability. ."

Janson covered his mouth: "In the past month, I found that he seemed to have returned to his original state."

"initial?"

"It's, um, the state when he first took over the team in 1994, maybe because history is in his hands."

Klinsmann nodded thoughtfully.

He can understand what Jensen means by "history".

Millwall has won four championships in a single season from the start to today, the Charity Shield, Super Cup, Toyota Cup, League Cup.

The league champion has been locked, that is, the fifth championship is in hand, and the last two championships remain, the Champions League and the FA Cup.

If Millwall can win these two championships.

This is definitely a great achievement from the past!

Seven seasons in a single season!

Before the start of the season, I don't think so much, but at this point, history is really in the hands of Audridge. How can he take it lightly?

So in Jensen's eyes, Aldridge's working state returned to the original state, serious, hardworking, every second, even no time to chat with friends and colleagues to joke, most of the time he will be thinking when resting.
