England has an impersonal tradition of treating injured soldiers, players seem to become invisible after injury, up to the manager to teammates, almost as if he does not exist, even if the manager goes to communicate with the injured, there will be no direct dialogue, and a third person needs to be present to relay it, which is a tradition close to superstition, and many clubs are abiding by it.

Because football in England is a men's sport, a symbol of blood tenacity, like the battlefield, after falling can not get up, is the loser, in order not to let the injured affect the morale of the team, so the club's usual practice will try to isolate the injured from the team, this tradition, until the international trend of the Premier League has changed.

Aldridge is sensible about traditions, and good traditions should be followed, such as the closed locker room, but he disdains to follow traditions that can clearly make injured players feel depressed and even mentally stressed.

Unable to move anymore, Trezeguet was helped to the sidelines by two team doctors, where Aldridge was already standing, and Trezeguet, who had taken off his boots, had a swollen right ankle like a pig's trotter.

"When did you get hurt?"

Aldrich asked softly.

Trezeguet lowered his head and whispered in a panicked tone, "Yesterday." ”

He was afraid that Aldrich would lose trust in him from then on.

However, Aldridge patted him on the shoulder and said lightly: "David, the injury is not a problem, but you deliberately conceal that the injury is a big problem, take care of the injury, the team will wait for you." ”

Trezeguet, who had endured the severe pain and never cried, suddenly his eyes were moist, he choked and raised his head and said, "Boss, I'm sorry." ”

"You are not sorry for me, the body is yours, you have to learn to protect yourself, health always comes first."

"Thank you, chief."

Trezeguet was taken straight into the tunnel by the two team doctors.

Aldridge asked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to warm up when the team doctor came in, and when Trezeguet went off injured, Aldridge waited for a dead-ball opportunity to make a substitution.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer came to Aldridge's side, and Aldridge watched every move on the field and asked softly: "Ole, do you know what to do when you come on the field?" ”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer blurted out: "Knowing that the opponent's Wright is moving slowly, Scalles does not have a lot of activity area, and there is a lot of space between the opponent's two midfielders and the defenders. ”

Aldridge nodded, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's concentration on the bench was the best in the team, and his ability to read the game was far from being comparable to that of a human being.

"After you get on the pitch, you can switch positions with Henrik frequently, to put it bluntly, Liverpool's defense can't prevent you two at all, you can take the ball and do more shaky breakthroughs."

"Understood, sir."

With three minutes to go before half-time, Millwall made a substitution and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer replaced Trezeguet, who had gone off injured.

Liverpool took a one-goal lead into the dressing room at half-time.

Anfield fans breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the ferocity of Millwall's attack in the first half, they thought that the other side was really strong, and it was not good!

Manchester United was scored five goals, it was Manchester United who became weaker, Arsenal, the team was discouraged, if you come to Anfield, at least five or six of them will be beaten

Millwall, not worthy of the name!

Aldridge walked slowly, and in the tunnel of the players, the Liverpool players had a proud look on their faces, and Redknapp Jr. shouted at Aldridge: "Boy, what did you say before the opening?" Now, shouldn't you go home to your dad? Oh, your dad isn't a coach, you can only throw yourself into his arms and cry your nose, oh, little Aldrich, what's wrong with you? Why do you want to cry? ”

Redknapp Jr. was clearly angry about Aldridge's provocation before he came on, and now that Liverpool are ahead, he will naturally turn his back on him.

"Grass mud horse! What did you say? There's a kind of rolling over! ”

Southgate, who has always been silent, was furious, shouting and about to rush over, the teammates behind him were stunned for a moment, and then they also rushed up, but they were stopped by Aldridge in front, Anfield's passage was already narrow, and he directly blocked everyone behind him alone.

Liverpool's players also supported Redknapp Jr., and they stood together menacingly, as if they were going to engage in a hand-to-hand fight.

Aldridge had a smile on his face, and he said lightly to Redknapp Jr.: "Jamie, as long as your father coaches West Ham United for one day, he and I will be enemies, you don't understand the war in East London, I don't blame you." A word of advice to you, don't be complacent until the game is over, and besides, I feel sad for Liverpool, Millwall won't feel like a big deal when they beat Arsenal, but you're happy right now, you don't deserve the Reds' shirt, and behind me are soldiers who never bow their heads, you, hehehe, playboys. ”

With that, Aldridge turned and beckoned the player back to the locker room.

The Liverpool players were angry and yelling at Aldridge.

"Shout, scold, I have seen a lot of dandy's virtues."

Bang.

The doors of the away dressing room are slammed shut.

I didn't have time to care about the atmosphere on Liverpool's side, but the boys in front of Aldridge sat down calmly.

Aldridge wasn't going to write on the tactical board today, he just stood in front of him, crossed his arms around his chest, and asked faintly, "How are you feeling?" I mean, is there pressure to play here? ”

The players looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Perhaps Aldridge was standing on the sidelines all the time, and they could always see him, and that fearless stance seemed to remind them of their fearlessness.

Aldridge shrugged and said, "Okay, take a break and play well in the second half." ”

"Boss, don't you talk about tactics?"

Southgate asked, looking up.

He doesn't want to lose, his questions are the ones that almost every player wants to ask.

It seemed that they were used to Aldridge's adjustment in half-time and were able to help them play a better game in the second half.

Aldridge laughed: "Just play like in the first half, we can win, in the first half we created a lot more chances than them, but a little bit of luck, since you want to hear it, then I'll be verbose." ”

The players stared intently at Aldrich.

He sat down and said lightly: "In fact, you should know that the stronger the team, the more obvious the home advantage, the more brilliant the home record, a big reason is that the away team is frightened by the home atmosphere, but also because of the difference between strength and weakness and conservative, giving up to fight for the initiative in the game." Did you know how many goals Manchester United conceded at home last season? ”

The crowd shook their heads.

Aldridge stretched out his right hand, compared four fingers, and said with a smile: "You can count it on one hand, Manchester United only conceded 4 goals in 21 league home games last season!" ”

This statistic made the whole team gasp, only four of the 21 home games conceded?

Aldridge continued: 'But did you know how many goals Manchester United conceded on the road last season? ”

The crowd still shook their heads.

Aldrich looked at his hands, then at his feet, and said helplessly: "Claude, lend me a hand." ”

With that, he lifted Makelle's hand, raised his legs slightly, and said, "Twenty-four balls." ”

4:24.

That's how Manchester United's home and away defence performed last season.

The players had some realization.

Aldridge smiled: "I understand, although Manchester United does have less home advantage as a guest, but it is impossible to cause such a big contrast between home and away because of this, the most important thing is determination, many teams face Manchester United away from home, and the game has surrendered before it starts, and at home, for the sake of face, you have to fight hard, fight hard, everyone finds that Manchester United is not invincible." It's the same with Liverpool, they conceded a home-and-away goal ratio of almost 1:2 last season, so as long as we forget about the pressure here, forget that the opponent is Liverpool, just as they are a normal opponent, play our own football and show our quality, what about Liverpool? We can score five goals at Old Trafford, will it be difficult to score goals at Anfield? And to be honest, Liverpool's defense is still worse than Manchester United, which Pavel should be well aware of. ”

Nedved nodded naturally, Keengabat's midfield defensive combination with Redknapgabans, defensive hardness is not at the same level.

England once gave birth to the tactician Chapman, on the basis of its WM tactics, extended the classic tactics of European and South American football powers, but England will always rest on its laurels after achieving certain achievements, more than 60 years ago with three strikers, the tasks of the two wingers are basically the same as today's England wingers, they are all to take the ball to create opportunities on the wing, and then pass the ball to the center forward.

When 442 became the mainstream in England, England's tactics entered "hibernation" again, attacking players not defending, defensive players not attacking, it continued, and I don't know when Lu Dao will be woken up.

Aldridge has built a team with a complex of skills and tactics, only from the performance in the first half, Aldridge has been full of confidence in the game, no goals in the first half, related to Trezeguet, conceding a goal is not catastrophic, to score a goal on the football field, blink of an eye, Millwall is not an attack can not score, he will not panic and use his brain how to change.

Sometimes, the wrong time to change is the consequence of self-destruction.

Clapping his hands, Aldridge smiled at the players and said, "Let's play, the enemy is not strong, we are stronger than them, it's as simple as that, and after an hour, we go home with victory." ”

The whole team roared in unison.

They straightened their jerseys and followed the smiling Aldridge out in high spirits.

Aldridge felt happy in his heart, and the temperament of the team had been formed.
