On January 1, Millwall officially announced Pagliuca's transfer from Bologna to Millwall for a transfer fee of £9oo0,000.

When the Italian media commented on the transfer, they believed that Bologna had made a fortune, implying a mockery of Millwall's "stupid people and a lot of money".

Fleet Street also felt that Millwall had made a ridiculous deal.

They used almost the same amount of money that first-tier clubs bought the main goalkeeper, bought a substitute goalkeeper, and an old goalkeeper who had no room for value and became less and less valuable.

Aldridge took the second-most expensive transfer in the club's history very seriously, and personally attended the press conference with Pagliuca, praising Pagliuca on the spot, expressing his trust in him, and also believing that it is the most important signing in Millwall's transfer market this season.

Fleet Street is quite speechless, whether Millwall is recruiting in the summer or Kaka, who has now been exposed only a labor certificate can be signed and introduced, this is Millwall's investment in the future, Pagliuca is undoubtedly capable of fighting, and for now, it is naturally the most important.

There were faceless reporters at the scene who questioned the correctness of Millwall's spending a lot of money to introduce Pagliuca, Aldridge mercilessly reprimanded the other party, he did not mention the importance of Pagliuka to the team in the second half of the season, but said that Pagliuca's experience is priceless, can bring Millwall all kinds of positive effects that sound illusory, of course others can't understand, or can't hear Aldrich's off-strings, but Aldrich really hopes that Pagliuca's old knife can stimulate Bout in the goalkeeper position, As Bout becomes more and more robust. The gap between him and substitute goalkeeper Keller is getting wider and wider, and he will become comfortable in the main position. Now there is an "old guy" with ability, who can more or less put some pressure on Bute, but not to the point where you can't coexist with me, this degree is caused by age, and it is also what Aldrich likes to see.

At the same time, Aldridge also hopes that the arrival of Pagliuca will also affect the next goalkeeper Aldridge has high hopes for: Joe Hart.

There has always been a long cycle of change in goalkeeper positions, especially for teams that have become famous at a young age or who have dominated the main position at a young age. How many people did Kahn crush for club and country? How many outstanding Spanish goalkeepers of his generation have Casillas made desperate in Real Madrid and Spain? Buffon, Van der Sar

Joe Hart is not yet an adult, and when he reaches the age when he should be on the throne, it is the age of Bout's metabolization, Aldridge hopes that Hart can become better under the influence of Bout and Pagliuka, and can take on the responsibility of the big club in the future.

As for the 9oo0,000 pounds, there is indeed a suspicion of being slaughtered by Bologna.

But Aldridge didn't see it that way. The outside world has always ridiculed Millwall's unpopular media columns or critics, and the truly professional critics have chosen to remain silent.

Because everyone's vision is different, at Millwall's level, it remains to be said whether millions of pounds have really been slaughtered.

Pagliuca is a parallel import, so even if he is worth two or three million pounds, Millwall will also be ridiculed. The money was spent unjustly.

But if Pagliuca can show the level he deserves to help Millwall keep the door in the second half of the season, what is £9oo0,000?

Not to mention the huge difference of interests between the league winners and runners-up, in the Champions League alone, Millwall can play one more game. Stadium revenue, broadcast revenue, match day. Tournament prize money, £9oo million? That's just a matter of Bologna's level being taken seriously.

Aldridge also took this into account, so he spent a lot of money on Pagliuca's transfer without changing his face.

Instead of buying a goalkeeper of three or four million to make himself sleep badly, he would rather spend a little more money and do it once and for all.

Reinforcement is a risky gamble, there is no absolute safety and no risk, but looking at the list of all the candidates that Boas gave him, only Pagliuca let Millwall have the highest probability of winning, saving millions of pounds, knowing that he may buy a bomb back, this kind of thing, Millwall may fight when he has no money, now, he can't do it!

Gossip from the outside world, let him go.

Pagliuca returned to Italy after attending a press conference, moving and arranging for her family, which took some time.

Millwall, meanwhile, announced that Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole are away on loan to move to Millwall's neighbouring Valley Stadium for Charlton Athletic for the second half of the season.

The loan transfer has caused a lot of controversy, and even fan groups are eager to have a dialogue with the club in the first place, trying to find out what is going on.

With the departure of two stable substitutes, Millwall looked to have taken the initiative to weaken their own strength.

Aldridge understands that this is the way Millwall FC must go at this stage.

The club has reached a fork in the road where it has to be decided.

Will it maintain the dynasty with a group of stable main members, or will it continue the tradition of constantly cultivating new people in the past?

The advantage of the former is that the record is higher and can continue to be more brilliant, and the disadvantage is that if this group of main students changes greatly, the club will fall into a situation of lack of success.

One of Millwall's major hallmarks is to develop rookies, and their own hematopoietic ability is outstanding.

Players can go out on loan, but they must develop their Millwall DNA in the early stages, so a player like Alonso, to the stage where he must have a stable opportunity to play, let him play in Millwall's environment, imprint Millwall in his football thinking, and then go out on loan. Unable to achieve the youth training goal of its own hematopoietic counter-supplement.

Aldridge believes that there is an eternal condition behind the modern football exhibition: persistence.

Whether it was Ajax, which once shocked Europe, Barcelona, or the revival of German football that is now budding, they all adhered to their principles and finally stepped on the peak of prosperity.

Millwall cannot abandon their original strategy for the rise and must ensure that new players are given a chance every season. Hone them, even if it's just one per season. Two, this is a signal of perseverance, which will give more young players confidence and will be the foundation of Millwall's long-term development.

It can't be generalized, Lampard's loan dealings with Kerr have weakened Millwall's bench depth, but there are also external factors such as England's national team background, and internally, Aldridge wants to develop Alonso in the first team. There's nothing wrong with planning ahead.

In January, Millwall joined the FA Cup team, and as the FA Cup champions of the past two years, Millwall still continues the tradition, and the cup is not the main team until the final!

With Nedved's return date approaching, Klose is also pushing his fitness limits, starting in August. The intensity of the game is the same as that of the main player, but it is much more than he played last season, and it is not a good thing to over-fatigue him all of a sudden, although it makes him rise very quickly, but Aldridge intends to let him spend January and then rest and turn to the bench. In the first game of the FA Cup, he led the trident with Villa, Glen Shial, Ramour, and Alonso. Pedreti is well distributed in midfield, with the "veteran" Neil to Barzagli at the back. Metzeld Ferreira and others relieved the pressure, and Millwall played a hearty game, beating Stamford 6-1.

Since this month, England has entered the rhythm of Millwall's battle for dominance with Manchester United, and although Arsenal are trying to catch up, their poor away record (winning rate of only about 25%) makes them unable to shorten the distance even when Manchester United and Millwall alternate mistakes, and the suspense of the English title is only between red and blue.

Pagliuca kept three clean sheets in a row and quickly earned the trust of the fans and the team.

The psychological warfare drama between Aldridge and Ferguson also kicked off, which became the main theme of the second half of the season.

In January, Manchester United suffered a series of draws, with Millwall winning more and drawing less, and the points were against Manchester United.

Ferguson claims that Millwall are bound to make mistakes, that their unbeaten run is broken, and that players who have been full of accolades in recent years will relax when they are ahead, as evidenced by the decline in attacking firepower.

Aldridge hit back: Manchester United are runners-up in the league for the fourth year in a row, and Millwall's lead is like a nightmare hanging over Old Trafford, this momentum will crush Manchester United's confidence, and the first psychological breakdown will be Manchester United.

Fleet Street sighed, feng shui takes turns!

At that time, Ferguson provoked Keegan to lose his mind, leading by 12 points and finally collapsed, at that time, the background of the Red Devils' two championships in three years and one runner-up, Newcastle United empty-handed, and Manchester United were better in championship temperament, Keegan was too eager to prove himself and hit the scheme.

Now, with Alex Ferguson doing the same thing, Aldridge is neither Keegan nor Millwall nor Newcastle United, so what's the difference?

Champions, number of champions.

Will Millwall collapse? With the two teams not far apart and Manchester United coming close behind at any moment, how could Millwall relax?

A paradoxical situation is that if the gap between Manchester United and Millwall is widened, Millwall is indeed likely to have the kind of championship soft and slackened spirit that Ferguson said, but once Manchester United falls too far behind, will Manchester United still have the stamina and fighting spirit to reverse Millwall? Aldridge's counterattack hit the nail on the head, four consecutive years, three losses to Millwall, one loss to Arsenal, it cannot be said that Manchester United is used to the runner-up, when a 10,000-year-old second, but always second, can not touch the championship, such inertia and psychological shadow, the impact on Manchester United will be extremely profound.

At the same time, the media began to pick on Millwall on Fleet Street, and Aldridge repeatedly defended the team for the first time, defending the accused disciples, and the white-faced and red-faced tricks he planned began to work, and Millwall's team became unprecedentedly united.

In February, Millwall's god of war Nedved returned from injury and returned to the field at first in a mediocre state, the English semi-finals began to enter the second stage of the Champions League group stage, Millwall suffered two consecutive draws in England and China, Manchester United was like a rainbow, and once again regained the leader.

Without waiting for Ferguson to speak, Aldridge fired first: Manchester United has not won the league title in four years, the team is desperate, but now it must make a trade-off, fight for the Champions League or fight for the league title? Manchester United is absolutely unable to cope with the two-front battle, and in this regard, Millwall is definitely better than Manchester United! If you are greedy, the chicken flies and the egg beats!

Ferguson was outraged by Aldrich's remarks and responded: "When Manchester United won the title, Millwall didn't even know what the top flight was! Has Millwall made a choice? League matches? Or the Champions League? Do you want to defend both? Stop dreaming!

Aldridge replied unashamedly: This dream, the whole Millwall team is doing! Than honors? Don't mention the things of the old yellow calendar, I don't ask too much, let's start from the British era, 92/93-94/95 season, Millwall let Manchester United for three seasons, we count who has more league titles? Well, the same. Count the Champions League trophies, Millwall one more, well, let Manchester United count the Champions League titles from decades ago, everyone else, do you want to count the FA Cup and League Cup in the English era? Everyone in Millwall dreams and dares to dream, because we are adventurers with dreams, and the champion gene is in our blood!

The two champions are head-to-head, which makes the audience extremely enjoyable, anyway, now both teams are hated, Manchester United has always made many enemies, Millwall has also been the target of public criticism over the years, Ferguson and Aldridge pinched, for many people, it is really happy!
