Thanks for the reward of "Death of the Thief"! ――

After the game, the chaos off the pitch kicked off, and Aldridge was prepared to know that there would be no peace off the pitch before and after the game, especially after the result.

There will always be winners or losers in the game, even if it is a draw, it is a victory for West Ham United, so the loser will be unwilling, and the winner will laugh at the loser, which will lead to conflict.

There will be security restrictions in the stadium, although there are police officers outside the stadium, but the police can't follow everyone closely, hating each other for hundreds of years of East London rivals, conflict is inevitable, another 100 years, as long as the club is still around, such things will still happen.

Aldridge attended the post-match press conference, and there were plenty of questions waiting for him.

Asking him how he felt about his victory was a cliché.

Ask him to evaluate the game, and it is boring.

The game is clear at a glance, the winner is strong, and the strong also wins.

But there are still many media reporters who are anxious to interview Aldrich.

Giancarlo, a veteran British correspondent for Milan Sport, is one of them.

"Mr Hall, Millwall played an eye-opening game today, I don't know if that's the right way to describe it, Italy's chain defense is played in the middle of the back, with the aim of stifling the opponent's attacking threat, Millwall today used a similar but more extreme way, which is to completely stifle the opponent's attacking organization in the midfield, and then form a continuous pressing attack, does this mean that Millwall has developed a new, epoch-making defensive strategy?"

Giancarlo was shocked after watching the game.

Originally, he was not the observer reporter of "Milan Sport" in the UK. But when Millwall burst onto the occasion a few years ago. He focused on the team's tactics. Later, he recommended himself to England to follow and report on English matches for a long time, focusing on Millwall.

In his opinion, the root of Millwall's rise in the wind and water is not how powerful and gorgeous the offense is, simply the offense, the giants in the world, but anyone who can form a first-class attack group, 5o% can play a mercury attack. However, the record is stable or higher, and it still depends on defense, which is also the philosophy of Italian football, defense is paramount, because defense has a more critical impact on victory.

Neither Manchester United nor Arsenal have reached the heights of Millwall defensively, and Giancarlo has featured in the past few years in the process of competing for the title. Explaining exactly where the other title contenders lost, he believes United are back in second place. It's not that the offensive firepower isn't strong enough, maybe Millwall has scored more goals than them, but when it matters, it's the defense that is working.

Maybe Millwall wins the opponent a 6:o, which is to brush 6 goals and goal difference, and if Manchester United loses an o:1, the number of goals and goal difference, the gap is very large, but the standings are only 3 points apart, if not the goal difference, the most important thing is that the number of wins and losses plays a key role.

He thinks that Manchester United have lost some unexpected games, and Millwall are more stable, and losses are very rare, because of the quality of the defense, sometimes Manchester United is blown up in games, it seems that the players have personal problems, but Millwall's players are 1oo% stable? No, that's the manager's credit for the defensive strategy, improving the margin for error and making the defense more stable.

In this, Giancarlo believes that the core figure is Southgate, Southgate, who has followed Aldridge for seven years, has his own weaknesses, but he will play his strengths, and his role in defense cannot be ignored, it can be said that Millwall's bench lineup has no candidates who can replace Southgate's role, not a gap in ability, but a difference in defensive tasks, and this role.

Therefore, when Millwall's defense continues to expose hidden dangers, it must be when Southgate is absent due to injury, without him, the team's overall defensive strategy cannot work effectively, and it has the effect of affecting the whole body.

Millwall's original overall defensive strategy was the shadow of Italy's chain defense, because of the different characteristics of the league in which it was located, Aldridge did not copy it, which was not realistic, so it was improved, Giancarlo naturally showed this, Southgate was more like a dragging central defender, not only to complete the defensive task, but also to stabilize the ball, which allowed Millwall to ensure that the ball would not be lost lightly when switching from defense to attack.

But today's game had a subversive impact that shocked Giancarlo's heart.

High pressing is Millwall's last resort tactical change, because the opponent is defending to the death, if not high-pressing, then when the opponent turns from defense to attack, the forward impact space is too large, and the overall formation retreats back to do positional defense, which is easy to be penetrated in the process of the opponent's continuous advancement.

Today, Millwall has swung the high-position pressing tactics to the extreme, the chain defense is in their own half, the core role is two points, one is to ensure the defense, the other is to let the opponent attack, to create their own offensive space after the success of the defense, so the Italian team, the use of chain defense, counterattack will not invest too many troops, there are two or three good level of players, can be together, in the counterattack to attack the city as if walking on the ground.

And Millwall's defense today, the defensive zone is in the midfield, and it is not to stifle the opponent's last attack, but to stifle the opponent's attacking source.

The offensive is roughly divided into two phases, the first is the organization, and the second is the key breakthrough point.

The chain defense contained the second stage, and Millwall's high pressing, but the first stage, which is definitely more difficult and risky than the chain defense.

Gian-Carlo's question brought silence to the press conference, and all the reporters were curious, while some of the reporters who worked as a ball-commentator were excited.

They had just witnessed a classic battle that would have been replayed countless times, as it was a technical and tactical encounter that was firmly executed and unleashed eye-popping effects in 9o minutes.

Millwall completely suppressed West Ham United, and this suppression reached the pinnacle of Cheng Dù.

"I don't think it's convincing to talk about tactics alone because of the intricacies of the factors that affect a game. But to say Millwall's tactics were successful. There is no need to argue about this. The scores, technical statistics, and scenes are all very convincing. However, I would like to point out that we need to be calm at this point, Millwall only won against the relegated side and the defensive tactics adopted today have certain limitations and are far less applicable than the chain defence of Italy. My tactics can't be compared to chain defense, and there's no arguing about that. ”

Aldridge spoke eloquently and was not carried away by the victory.

GianCarlo nodded thoughtfully for a moment.

Indeed, as Aldridge said, Millwall's defensive tactics have great limitations, depending on the opponent, the game environment, and their own player configuration, while Italy's chain defense is more widely applicable, and it comes down to the same old topic: space.

Italy's chain defense uses its own half as the main defensive zone. It is a defensive tactic that focuses on restricting offensive space as the core of defense. The strong team can use it, and the strong team can use it so that the opponent who is not as strong as himself will be desperate, and it is difficult to break through the defense line no matter how he fights, and the weak team can also use it, creating an offensive space, and then fighting back.

And Millwall's defensive tactics, the first weak team can't be used, can't afford to use! Secondly, if a strong team does not have a good tacit understanding and the right players, such as Nedved's defensive ability, how many giants can have such a player in the front waistline? Then, they will not be able to achieve the goal of high pressing of defensive tactics, and there will be no way to talk about the future.

Giankallo admired Aldridge's calmness at this time, and was able to point out the advantages and disadvantages of tactics by himself, and he sighed sincerely: "Anyway, Mr. Hall, you have told many teams with actual battles today, what kind of thinking can you use to face the dense defense, and also opened a new door in football tactics, in this regard, you are very remarkable." ”

Limitations are limitations, but not only Millwall can be used, other teams will never be used, especially the giant team, the player team is strong, all kinds of role players are available, if you are troubled how to break the dense defense, today Millwall provides a good idea, this is Aldridge's credit, but also his personal merit, if it can be promoted, the future will be forever recorded in history.

"Thank you."

Receiving compliments from others, Aldrich smiled and thanked him.

David Miller raised his hand for the second time and asked, he, like Giancarlo, didn't care much about the outcome of the game, Millwall won the opponent, which is not news, but how to win is the focus of the study.

"Pirlo plays as a single midfielder, Gattuso plays as a central midfielder, and Gattuso himself is a pure defensive back player, pushing him forward, achieving the tactical intention of the back front, making the midfield counter-robbery more tight and aggressive, Millwall can dominate this game, in addition to efficient counter-robbery, there is also Pirlo in the back to organize the offensive steadily, the front waist is back, the back is forward, and at the same time appears in Millwall's technical and tactical system, Does this mean that Millwall's technical and tactical prowess in today's game has pushed the limits of the team's overall strength once again? ”

Millwall's unrivalled strength is somewhat ambiguous, that is, they are strong and no one can beat them, and even if they do, it is a traditional upset.

So is there room for Millwall to improve?

They are already number one, and then up, who will they go to?

But this game made David Miller realize that Millwall had once again completed a self-breakthrough!

And this breakthrough is very concrete and visual.

In the past, breaking the dense defense seemed to be a matter of course or to see luck, maybe the 9o minute attack was a little less lucky, and the opponent got a draw.

Today, there was no element of luck in it, with Millwall's overwhelming dominance crushing their opponents and, most importantly, David Miller's defensive strategy today, Millwall's defensive strategy today was very flexible.

The front midfielder can be flexibly switched between the positions of the two players in the midfield, which means that Millwall's technical and tactical system has once again made a breakthrough, and in addition to being flexible and changeable, the options are more abundant.

If the winning team does not change, the tactical system that has proven to be successful, and the change of a key position can lead to a series of immeasurable and catastrophic consequences.

Because of this, Aldridge would not have moved the positions of Pirlo and Gattuso before, and Gattuso escorted Pirlo, which proved to be successful, and Gattuso was regarded as taking over the role of Makelele, which was a continuation of the successful model.

On the road to success, thinking will inevitably be rigid, and we dare not act rashly.

This step of the breakthrough not only requires great courage, but also requires a long time of ideological brewing foundation, change and unchanged, only decided in a moment, but the time accumulation of this decision, maybe some head coaches can not think of it in their lives!

Aldridge faced David Miller's question and said lightly: "I'm very happy that the team has perfectly executed the tactics formulated by the coaching staff, as for whether there is a breakthrough, it's hard to draw conclusions now, at least we have gained new experience in this game, which will be of great help to the future, be honest, we have a new way to break the dense defense, which is a good thing for the team, it proves our understanding of the game, the ability to control the game is stronger, Millwall needs to innovate, and we also need a breakthrough in your mouth, We will continue to work hard for this. ”

David Miller began to applaud with a stern expression on his face.

It is already difficult for a successful team to innovate, because the risk taken is extremely high, and perhaps a small change will bring the negative impact of losing strength and self-defeating martial arts.

Aldridge has the courage and Millwall has the pursuit, and he deserves a round of applause for this great team and his heartfelt respect.

The other reporters also applauded, and their eyes were full of reverence when they looked at Aldrich.

At such moments, as journalists, they also feel lucky.

Because, most likely, they are witnessing a piece of legendary history that has gone down in football. (To be continued......)
