When the England squad arrived at Liverpool's turf and trained at the Melwood training base, it was clear that the atmosphere in the national team had changed a little from last season.

This change made him feel happy, and a little proud.

Becky, Scholes, Owen, Neville, these stars who play for the British giants, are more in awe than before in front of Aldridge, obey Aldridge's words, and there will be almost no problems in training.

Aldridge's own relationship with this group of players is very complicated, the national team wants to be handsome, and when he returns to the club, he has to meet each other, with the improvement of the national team's record, the prospect is worth looking forward to, the club field, Aldridge has created brilliance again, these players envy outsiders do not know, Aldrich has faded the magic coat, a success is magical, two times is magical, when three times, four times, and continuous success, this is not magical, it is absolute strength, Xiaobei they are in awe, Aldridge in his eyes is like what Fleet Street touted, like a god, with the magic of turning decay into magic, working for him, as long as he plays well, he doesn't dare to expect trophies, at least break through himself, and achieve certain achievements is just around the corner.

Aldridge has changed from a young coach to a Confucian coach, and the players have never relied on hysterical roars, whether in the club or the current national team, the players have a strong consensus: Aldridge is the boss, and the boss must be listened to!

From the beginning of the season, Aldridge has focused on studying the Finnish technical and tactical style of play, and combined with the current world preliminary form, the technical and tactical system of the England national team has been formed, and the rest is to rely on time to mature the skills and tactics and exert greater power. On this basis, Aldridge's swing space is much larger, and he can fine-tune the preparation for the opponent's situation, and there will be no micro-adjustment that shakes the foundation of the technical and tactical framework.

Attend a press conference at Anfield, and take ownership. Aldridge himself feels weird in his heart, I'm afraid Liverpool fans can't accept it, less than a month after the start of the new season, it was Aldridge's Millwall who gave Liverpool two runners-up.

But who made Liverpool want to make money? Otherwise, why bother to apply to the FA to host the national team's home games?

At the press conference, Aldridge's expression was extremely stern. It was in stark contrast to the smiles on the faces of the reporters on the scene.

Fleet Street is more optimistic, believing that by winning today's game, England will get rid of the huge negative shadow of losing at home to Germany after last year's European Championship fiasco, and the public can fully expect England's performance at next year's World Cup.

"The first guy said England would win, and the second guy started talking about the next game we went to Germany. The third man is already looking ahead to the World Cup. I would say that England are in a much worse position than Finland, and if we don't win today, then Finland have two points more than us, and they have five points more than us if they win the last game. And England have two games left after this game, even if we win one and draw one, we will still be eliminated from the competition, and we will not even have the opportunity to participate in the play-offs! Yes, we have won three of our last three World Championship games, but if those three wins make us lose our minds, England will probably miss the World Cup. I'm not pouring cold water on it, I'm making it clear the reality, players. The coach, and even the fans who cheered us on, stay calm, England, will fight for victory. The basis of the victory, first of all, is to face the opponent, Finland is not as strong as us, but if they beat England tomorrow, their probability of qualifying for the World Cup will be more than 9o%! ”

Aldridge is warning the team, the media, and the fans.

Don't be overly optimistic!

Football games are often a great joy before the game, and great sorrow after the game!

Since England is facing three decisive battles, it must have the awareness and attitude of decisive battles!

The next day, the voice of Fleet Street still echoed Aldridge, in terms of momentum, if England cannot enter next year's World Cup, the loss of Fleet Street will be very large, after all, the British will not be too enthusiastic about media information without England's participation, newspaper sales, program ratings, will inevitably plummet.

At this point, Fleet Street still has a bottom line, or is driven by interests, and they want the England team to be the focus of attention all the time, especially the focus of the tournament.

In the dressing room before the game, Aldridge observed that the players' expressions were more strict, their minds were clear, and they knew that this was a life-and-death battle, the last time they met, Finland drew with England at home, and the last time they failed to win Finland, today they changed to the home field, and the players themselves will not have excessive confidence that they will be able to win the opponent, and the attitude is correct, and they attach great importance to the opponent.

In view of this, Aldridge did not remind the players of anything, but just encouraged the team to play.

The Finnish national team also took this match very seriously, and this was their penultimate match in the world qualifiers.

If they can win away from home, they will at least have a play-off hope, and a lot of hope, after all, England travel to Germany in the next round, and not many are optimistic that England can make a difference in Munich.

Even if there is a draw, Finland will still have the advantage as long as they take out Greece in the last round.

At this time, the biggest stars in the Finnish national team are Hyypia and Litmanen, the strength of the whole team is not first-class, at best second-rate top, but relying on the overall swing, it can still have a certain effect, if it is not for England to draw Finland in the first two rounds and then lose to Germany, it is not the turn to have a decisive battle with Finland now.

"World Cup European Qualifiers Group I, England's sixth round of matches is about to start at Anfield, national team coach Hall has a cautious attitude towards this game, and many football media are also worried today, because Finland may give up bold attacks for a draw, as long as they get a draw, they will maintain a 2-point lead over England, I think this is a test for the England national team, in the past few games, England's biggest feature is counterattacking, Facing a positional battle today, the advantage they have honed may be limited to the maximum, and hopefully the lads of the national team will try to get a result that will please the fans. Of course, I'm talking about a victory, and nothing is more important than a victory. ”

Aldridge stood on the sidelines before the game began, his hands in his pockets and a calm gaze on the field.

It's time for a positional battle today!

Even if it was necessary to fight a positional battle, Aldridge still did not change the formation framework of 4321.

The atmosphere at Anfield today was more average.

Only Owen gets the usual cheers when he touches the ball. Other times, it feels like the volume is down in half.

Aldridge can understand that there are 11 people on the field, just Owen is a Liverpool player, and McManaman left with Liverpool fans who were very unhappy, and the rest. With four Manchester United, three Millwall, and nearly half of the English fans in the stands who are Liverpool fans, it may be difficult to show the utmost enthusiasm.

After watching the game for ten minutes, Aldridge was a little relieved.

Although Finland is mainly defensive, it has not yet put on the ultimate anti-counter posture. Coming to the away side, Finland has an idea of victory.

Even if they draw with England away from home, Finland have the advantage, but they can't say that their fate is completely in their own hands, and if England win their next two games, they will still be eliminated.

Therefore, they are actually defending with 6 people and switching between attack and defense with 3 people. 1-man absolute attacking arrangement to challenge England away.

"Did England play a little more conservative today? The offense seems to have returned to the way it was before, Beckham was very active with Neville on the right side, and McManaman and Owen were close to the side on the left side, but there was no one in the box, Scholes was not a big threat when he stepped forward frequently, and Hyypia seemed very calm in directing the defense in the box. Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard should have been bolder in attack and provided support up front. ”

The fans in the stands also felt that England played more conservatively than Finland today, and according to today's style of play, Beckham's advantage could not be waved, his cross. To whom? Owen and Scholes? Will they be able to grab some in front of Hyypia?

The players on the field actually knew that today's positional battle was very average, and there was only one shot on goal in the first 15 minutes, which was still a helpless choice for Owen to barely get up.

However, the players were very determined to implement Aldridge's pre-match tactics, and everyone knew that this was only temporary.

Becky and Neville have a tacit understanding. There was no small threat from a cross from the right, especially today when he was arranged, and the point of the cross was his team-mate at the club, Paul Scholes!

The Finnish team had a lot of counter-attacking opportunities, but in addition to Neville's bold assist in the backfield, the backfield maintained a five-man group of Bart + Lampard and three other defenders, Finland's counterattack was difficult to form an effective attack, and was steadily defused by the backline commanded by Southgate.

Until the 27th minute of the game, Xiaobei suddenly did not pass the high-altitude ball, but changed to a direct pass on the ground, this time instead passed the ball into the penalty area, Scholes cut diagonally from the front of the penalty area, took a step forward while getting the ball, and pulled out the angle to form a great opportunity, but unfortunately the ginger head shot was a little positive, and was directly blocked by the goalkeeper with one hand.

'Paul Scholes missed a great chance, it was a combination between United players, is that what Hall wants to see? Or is it a killer move for Beckham to change the way he crosses? The game has been going on for half an hour, England's attack makes people look anxious, this is not like Hall's coaching style, in the past few games, England even if they can't score for 3o minutes, but the shooting opportunities, the way of attacking, will give us hope, today, we didn't see that. ”

Two minutes later, England, whose attack was heavily concentrated on the right, suddenly shifted their attack, Scholes moved the ball from the middle to the left, McManaman won the ball on the wing and dribbled horizontally in front of the penalty area, and then blasted a long-range shot from the line of the box with quality.

The Finnish goalkeeper kept the ball in goal and tipped it over the crossbar.

Finland felt the pressure and feared a surprise attack from their opponents, so they split their forces more to keep an eye on McManaman, Becky and Scholes, who were very active in the area outside the box.

Aldridge saw the adjustment of the Finnish team's defensive strategy, raised his chin slightly, and his eyes were sharp.

The real killer feature, it's time to come out!
