Aldridge sits in the locker room, and the stadium, which has only been built for four years, is not like a simple football stadium like England, so the interior is spectacular, with all kinds of facilities, keeping up with the modern trend, and it can be called a scene in the field of sports in Yokohama.

The well-informed Aldrich looked at the brand-new furnishings in the locker room, only four years have passed, and naturally there is no historical background, just like Japanese football, which has just started, and the stupid bird flies behind, and still has the ambition to turn into a Kunpeng and spread its wings.

Competitive sports are like this, as small as a club, as big as a country, there is no ambition to be competitive, there is no ambition to go to the top and look at the world, no matter how much rhetoric can not enter the house, only if you are really determined to fight, can you talk about the future.

With the World Cup final just around the corner, Aldridge is asking himself a question.

Are your ambitions satisfied?

I can't answer it myself, but if I ask myself, what is my ambition now compared to eight years ago?

There is no controversy about the answer, and today is naturally not as good as the state eight years ago when he was about to make a splash and climb the peak and step on all beings.

It's not exempt from vulgarity, a little more sour and rotten detachment and arrogance, who is proud to see? I don't know, it's nothing more than putting up a shelf, once the sea was difficult to water, except that Wushan is not a cloud, a little bit of the grandmaster mentality who doesn't know whether it's true or false, looking at the world, which mountain is waiting for him to climb? And who can fight against him?

Aldrich also understands that if it weren't for the advantage of crossing, he would be a fart!

But since this person who was destined to be inferior to a fart in his previous life has now become the top coach in world football, he is allowed to be a villain and a villain, and he is allowed to be chic and frivolous in the rain.

I took out my phone and looked at it. Inside the SMS box. There's a draft text message that he wrote. It is the message he is going to send to every Millwall player after this game, and he will inform the whole squad that he has left the managerial position and wants the players to support Klinsmann and continue to insist that the coach is dedicated to playing for the Lions.

did not announce the news to the whole team in the locker room in person, because Aldridge was afraid, he is a person who eats soft and not hard, especially to the people around him. I'm afraid that the whole team will keep me, and I'm afraid that I will soften my heart.

He is not special, he may occasionally be pretentious when he is proud, and boast that he is better than other coaches, but when he is sober, he will still put all opponents in a higher position than himself, so he will take great pains to ponder and study the opponent, and in the brainstorming, he is all about putting himself in the position of others as much as possible to think, and he is afraid that he will not do well.

But there was one thing he had a clear conscience. That's diligence.

Don't look at Aldridge's popularity in the football circle, and his status has risen again and again. Now that he is retired, he will inevitably be mixed with the title of a legend, but in the real aristocratic circle of England, Aldrich is most likely ridiculed as a fool by those celebrities, gentlemen and noblewomen, born to work hard, do not know how to enjoy, do not know how to be carefree, even the prince who should be cautious in his words and deeds to maintain the royal face has more scandals than him, there are many rights and wrongs, and all kinds of lofty pleasures are not uncommon, not to mention those rich people who roll up banknotes and light cigarettes, how can they run to be a football coach who works in the sun and rain?

Ferguson is old and has limited energy, and he began to delegate power, Aldridge is not compared with him, Wenger is not young, and Aldridge is not compared with him, but in the entire European football world, coaches under the age of 50, regardless of fame, really put energy and time into work, which can be called painstaking, Aldridge thinks that he is second, and I don't know who dares to call him first.

He is like this, and so are the coaches around him, it is this group of young and vigorous people who have come to eulogize their youth to sing the praises of blood, and together they have laid down the dynasty of the Wild Lions, so that Aldridge can have a little pride when he is about to announce the seal to the public.

Lao Tzu may not be as smart as any of you.

Maybe it's not as gifted as any of you.

It's not as good as any of you who have heard and seen your own famous teacher.

But Lao Tzu is more than you, more diligent than you, and wins you, don't be unconvinced!

By the time Aldrich came to his senses, the locker room was full.

The whole England team and the coach stood in front of him, Aldridge stood up, a team, whether the general is single-minded, is not a mouthful, in fact, it is a feeling.

The players are willing to work hard for you, you are also willing to pay for the players, everyone puts the common interests of the team first, this is the general's heart!

said that it took a year and a half to say that a group of people who got together in an average of a month and a half knew themselves, Lu Yao knew that the horsepower had been seen for a long time, and the friendship between the young marshal and them was all in plain sight.

"I envy you, really."

Aldrich smiled.

This made the Three Lions, who were full of ambition to prepare for a shocking battle, a little confused, and always felt that this should be the time to sharpen their knives, but they were made a little murderous by Aldrich's opening remarks.

"I'm a fan first and then a football coach, not a fan, I can't love football, I can't do this job without loving football. It's true to envy you, I envy me to death in my heart, because you're going to play the World Cup final, if you can, try to make Michael hate me for the rest of my life, I'll let him sit on the bench, I wear his jersey to play as a striker, I like to play as a striker, but unfortunately, I haven't played a minute in the professional league, and I can't even do 20 balls. ”

As soon as Aldrich's voice fell, the corners of the mouths of the people in the room curled, and they felt that Aldrich was like a child at this time.

"In two hours, my work with the England squad is over, Gareth, don't talk, just listen to me. I will no longer be the coach of England, but you will still be England internationals, the World Cup is held every four years, the final, the same, full of play, four years, only 22 players in the world can start in the final, plus substitutions, 28 people stand on that stage, four years, 28 people, eight years, 56 people, even if it is 12 years, it is only 84 people, minus the initial growth period of the player's career, cut off the trough at the end of the player's career, no matter how brilliant, 12 years to play 3 World Cups, It should be the limit, a player who can participate 4 times, 5 times. Summing up. There were only 10 people in total. And in the course of 3 World Cups. How many professional players will be born? How many players will retire? Countless, countless, as one of the 84 people at this limit, why am I envious? I don't know how many fans and how many professional players around the world are also envious. ”

In the light words, the room full of English players put away their smiles and solemn faces.

It's not easy to get here. 28 people in 4 years, only 84 people in 12 years, not to mention cutting half of the championship, it is conceivable that Aldridge's words made the spirit of the whole team highly concentrated, but there was no pressure from the stereotypical and old-fashioned incentives in the past.

Aldridge looked gentle and finally said: "This should be the only World Cup final in my life, I am proud of you and proud of myself. You should do the same, to say something spicy. Some of you are still young, but I don't think England will be able to reach the World Cup final in the next 10 years, why? I can also tell you that because the development of the league in England is extremely unfavorable to local players, and more and more foreign players make local rookies have no room to survive, especially those who emphasize technical ability, England itself is not as good as foreign players, and naturally, there are a few seedlings that will be easily robbed of foothold by foreign players. This will be the most important game of your international career. ”

After saying that, Aldridge walked around the players and walked out, muttering in a low voice, which was still heard by the players.

"Today, after 36 years of waiting, next time, will it be another 36 years?"

After the Three Lions generals Aldridge left, Southgate said in a deep voice: "Anyway, I definitely can't count on four years later, because I will be really old in four years, John, Saul, Leo, the three of them are the pillars, so, this game is the most important game of my life, I want the Hercules Cup, the opportunity that I never dreamed of is in front of me, guys, bring the Hercules Cup back to England together, okay?" ”

"Nonsense!"

McManaman spat out a sentence, and everyone in the locker room burst into laughter

Aldridge walked into this complex stadium, before the game, there was half of the closing ceremony, which had been completed, and after the award ceremony, there were the remaining ceremonies, which were not Aldrich's concerns, just as he never paid attention to the theatrical performances before every Champions League final.

The coach of the German team, Worrall, is obviously more experienced than Aldridge, who has played in the World Cup final, and now leads the team to the World Cup final.

However, experience does not mean courage, on the sidelines, Worrall was secretly surprised when he shook hands with the smiling Aldridge: In the previous 6 games, this young marshal was not smiling and stern, and he looked like an iron-faced general who led troops to fight, today, why did he smile?

He didn't understand it, so he didn't want to, anyway, it was difficult for this young marshal to figure it out with common sense.

Besides, he really can't get up easily.

It is not for nothing that England's chances of winning the title are assessed by the outside world above that of Germany.

It is true that both sides have players suspended, but the German team is more injured, it is the midfield soul Ballack who is suspended, this offense has broken a lot, and the defense has also suffered a lot of losses.

Aldridge was already open-minded this time, and in two hours, he ended his World Cup journey.

I don't know if it's because he defeated Brazil, but he has a faint feeling that there is no longer any regret about this World Cup, if England can't do Germany, he will not be embarrassed by himself except for hating the iron and steel, and by the way, he will scold England for not being able to support Liu Adou, but he will no longer be difficult for himself.

The World Cup, which lasted for a month, was attended by 30 teams, and the rest were England and Germany.

Standing in the area in front of his coach's seat, Aldridge shrugged his shoulders and muttered to himself: "Well, I shook hands with the seven national team coaches, no, it's eight, Sweden is the two coaches, and I turned Japan around, and I also skipped and knelt to celebrate, and I was a little bit in the limelight again, I didn't practice skating and kneeling in vain to celebrate, well, this World Cup, not in vain."
