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

The night before he left for Japan, Aldrich went to poker night as usual, and tonight he was lucky enough to win £3,500, and when he returned to the community with Evan in the evening, he saw a man sitting on the steps in front of his house.

When Evan got out of the car, he saw the person at the door of Aldrich's house, turned around, said goodnight, and walked straight back to his house.

Aldrich walked out of the garage, and the man at the door of the house also stood up, Aldrich raised his wrist and looked at his watch, it was already more than eleven o'clock at night, why did he not sleep and run to his door?

"Something?"

Aldridge came to this man and couldn't understand what Ronaldo was up to.

Ronaldo lowered his head and seemed to have something to say.

"Bullied?"

Ronaldo shook his head.

"Missed Mom?"

Ronaldo hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.

Aldrich was a little impatient, and said, "Then you should speak." ”

Ronaldo raised his head and looked away, and said in a low voice: "I want to ask you to borrow some money." ”

Borrow money?

Not to mention, Ronaldo is a poor boy.

His training, living, studying, and other expenses in Millwall are all paid by the club, Aldridge signed an apprenticeship contract with him with a salary, but it is all symbolic, less than 200 pounds a month, Ronaldo still insisted that the money be directly given to the family every month, he does not know, when he came to Millwall, Aldridge has given his family 500,000 pounds for free, and also helped his brother to detoxify, after his brother successfully detoxified. His family is doing a small business in Portugal. Life is much better than before.

This kid is short of money. Why don't you ask your family?

I guess he thought his family's economic conditions were very poor.

Aldrich asked curiously, "What do you want money for?" ”

Cristiano Ronaldo, who will turn 14 years old in three months, needs money, it is certainly not as simple as buying a bottle of drink and a snack.

Ronaldo started the ink again, and Aldrich couldn't stand it a little.

This baby's self-esteem is too strong, and opening her mouth to ask for someone is like going to the execution ground.

Aldridge opened the door and motioned for Ronaldo to come in, and Ronaldo walked in with his head down.

Sitting on the couch, Aldrich said, "Tell me how much you want." ”

Ronaldo replied: "Three hundred pounds." Two hundred pounds is fine. ”

Aldrich was a little speechless.

The future Mr. 80 million pounds is unspeakable for two or three hundred pounds.

Well, heroes can really be suffocated to death by a penny.

"Where is this money going to be spent?"

Ronaldo also sat down and said embarrassedly: "I want to buy a camera, a better one, a more expensive one." ”

Aldrich smiled.

I probably understood what Ronaldo was thinking.

He not only has strong self-esteem, but also loves stinky beauty, and in the youth team, his hairstyle is the most coquettish, changing every day. And when he took a group photo with the youth team, he was similar to the male model on the catwalk.

Young lad. It is understandable that after all, they are typical rich and handsome in the future.

Aldrich got up and went upstairs, took a camera down after a while, stuffed it into Ronaldo's hand, and said with a smile: "This is a new one I bought when I went on a trip in the summer, and it is a new digital camera that has just been launched this year, and you will be familiar with the functions after playing for two days." ”

Ronaldo looked at the brand-new camera in his hand, after all, he hadn't used it a few times, Aldridge traveled to Switzerland in the summer, and the photos taken were washed out, and the camera has been idle.

He fiddled with it, looking like he couldn't put it down.

In fact, he just wants to have a camera of his own, so that he can take more photos to show his family when he goes to Japan, and he also admits that he does stink and beautiful, but maybe this is more due to the embarrassing environment at home when he was young, the more he is strong, the more he wants to show and leave that moment, as if he can use it as his proud capital.

"How much does this cost?"

Ronaldo looked up and asked after playing for a while, Aldridge was tired of his heart, shook his head and said: "Give you, no money, as long as it is not something that will make you playthings discouraged, you just have to open your mouth if you lack anything, I know that your life here is very lonely, and it is good for your growth to find some pastime activities in your spare time." ”

Ronaldo nodded silently, Aldrich chatted with him for a while, and finally saw that it was too late, so he let him spend the night at home.

Before going to bed, Ronaldo put a battery on the camera, and took pictures of his shirtless appearance in front of the mirror, he is stronger and taller than before, don't look at the age of 14, in terms of physical fitness, it is not weaker than 16 years old, which directly led to him in the U16 echelon began to have signs of "seizing power and becoming a bully", it is estimated that when De Rossi graduates from the U16, the armband of the next U16 captain will be directly handed over to Ronaldo.

The day after waking up, Millwall's entire third-tier echelon chartered a flight to Tokyo, Japan.

On this trip, Millwall was dressed neatly and consistently, and even Messi Aguero wore tailor-made suits, but they were short in stature and wore suits, which were handsome and could not be seen, but they could be cute.

There was an accident when boarding the plane, someone was late.

Not the players, but the coaches.

Villas-Boas arrived at the airport almost half an hour late, rushing into the cabin with his suitcase in disheveled clothes, everyone else was already seated, the players of the first team were old and serious, unlike the youth team and the improvised, the elite youth team had not seen the world, Ronaldo was taking pictures with a camera, De Ro ran to Materazzi in a mature suit to play poker with Pirlo Gattuso and them, Messi and Aguero were watching cartoons with the portable DVD player that Aldridge gave them two months ago, uh, the full set of "Football Player", A group of teenagers under the age of 15 around, like Jenas, Le Tale also watched with relish

Boas entered the cabin and laid out his luggage, apologizing frequently to his colleagues on the coaching staff.

Aldridge and Klinsmann were also playing poker, and when Boas came up to them and apologized, Aldridge turned his head and was startled.

Klinsmann also asked worriedly: "You're okay, are you?" Feed. Are you sick? ”

Boaz was pale and his eyes were swollen. His eyes were bloodshot. Obviously not resting well.

Boas sat down across from Jenson as the plane began to take off, signaling that he was all right, and then pulling out a stack of reports from his bosom and handing them to Aldrich.

Aldrich pressed down the card, took it and looked down, and said in surprise: "You didn't sleep, did you?" ”

Boas nodded slightly.

Aldrich sighed, "Workaholic. ”

The report in his hand was an analysis of the opponent that Boas had worked on for several days in a row.

Unlike opponents in the Premier League or domestic cups, even in the Champions League, Millwall's intelligence work is not too difficult to do. Millwall's opponent in the Toyota Cup this time is Brazil's Vasco da Gama, and it is obviously impossible for the intelligence collectors to fly to Brazil to observe the opponent's situation continuously.

Aldridge wants to say how obsessed he is with the Toyota Cup, which is unlikely, but if he goes to Japan, he definitely wants to win the trophy, and deep down he doesn't pay attention to the Vasco da Gama team.

There are two reasons for this, one is that he needs Millwall to take the initiative, and the other is that the strength of South American teams is declining rapidly, and in the post-Bosman era, the frequency of South American players landing in Europe has increased significantly. After all, it is more profitable in Europe, and it is convenient in terms of transfers. This is also directly related to the fact that European football clubs have become financially well-off due to the significant increase in broadcasting revenues.

Boas's report was heavy, and Aldridge was a little ashamed.

It is better to talk than nothing, to know more about the opponent's situation, and to make more targeted pre-game deployment, which is also beneficial to the improvement of the chances of winning the game.

Boas didn't think it was a great contribution to stay up all night analysing his opponent's report, or rather, he felt that it was his job and that he should have done it.

Young colleagues in the football coaching circle are extremely envious of Boas, Millwall's coaching team has always been a place of yearning for young coaches, many new coaches want to work with Aldridge, excluding some coaches who are not on the right path, Aldridge is well-known in coaching circles, and the cover letters that came in the summer recruitment are the best proof of this.

"The flight time is more than 12 hours, you can rest first."

Aldridge put away his report, he couldn't always work on the plane, Boas's work attitude made him satisfied, even moved, behind a successful team, is the need for such a spirit.

Boas took a thin blanket and went to the empty seat in the corner, then closed his eyes and rested.

"That kid is so hard, it makes me feel a lot of pressure."

Klinsmann sighed.

Jenson smiled: "Yes, we were not as good as him when we didn't have many people, and we didn't look like we were dying. ”

Aldrich waved his hand and said, "Everyone's situation is different. ”

It's really different, like Klinsmann, he has made a name for himself in his playing career, even if the coach doesn't do a good job, it doesn't matter, but a person like Boas, if he can't succeed in this industry, it's not that he can't get along, but the height gap in life will be very strong.

Just like Aldridge said to Barnett back then, if you can't be a successful head coach, you should eat and wait to die and be a playboy to pull you down.

If you don't fight, you can't do it!

The time on the plane was a bit long, even painful.

After almost 14 hours of flight, they finally arrived in Tokyo, Japan.

The future Narita International Airport, now Tokyo International Airport, is crowded with Japanese and international journalists, as well as fans from all over the world.

When the whole Millwall team walked out under Aldridge's leadership, the whole stadium erupted in high-decibel screams.

The lights flickered, and the cheers of the mountains echoed in my ears.

Mo said that the reporters were stunned, and the fans, especially the female fans, jumped and jumped with excitement.

Who said it was the Millwall football team that came to Japan?

It's obviously a Millwall male model team!

The Millwall first team, led by Aldridge, from the coach to the players, all wore dark blue suits, with the Millwall team emblem printed on the top of the left chest.

Aldridge, Klinsmann, Boas, Jensen, Pirlo, Nedved, Larsson, Lampard, Southgate, Schneider, Bout

No matter how discerning a woman's eye is, here, there will always be a male god who makes them smeant!

"Millwall!"

"Aldrich Hall!"

"Pavel Nedved!"

"Henrik Larsson!"

The voices at the scene were a little chaotic, and the voices of those groups of three or five shouting someone's name collided and converged into a noisy noise.

Aldridge didn't make a splash, smiling and waving to the fans who greeted them at the airport, and the players who followed him would also symbolically say hello.

They went out, and the crowd poured out.

When the youth team comes out behind the first team, the elite junior team that starts the way comes out.

Cristiano Ronaldo, with a camera around his neck, stood in place, looking depressedly at the back of a group of people chasing the first team in front of him.

Jenas walked up to him and asked curiously, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Ronaldo said angrily: "We are also Millwall players!" ”

Messi and Aguero, two cute boys in suits, also stopped.

I have to say that the picture in front of them is a bit hurtful.

It feels like they're roadside weeds that no one cares about.

Najib walked behind the crowd and saw that the junior team was standing at the exit and did not move forward, and he understood everything when he looked at the crowd in front of him rushing out to chase the first team.

These little kids, who are the focus of the juvenile football world, have hurt their self-esteem.

Najib stepped forward and patted Ronaldo on the shoulder and said with a faint smile: "Remember today, those who turned around and left will regret it." ”

Ronaldo nodded heavily, and everyone else nodded with determination.

Fame is such a thing, who doesn't care about playing football? Who doesn't want to make themselves more famous and influential?

These teenagers made up their minds at this "hurt" moment to make those fans who didn't look at them regret it!

Najib seemed very happy to be able to stimulate the boys, and of course he liked to hear it.

Let's see, and look at ten years later, no one in the world knows you! (To be continued......)
