"Millwall turned the scoreline around! Glen Schal lacked a bit of luck with a shot but bounced off the post before the astute Trezeguet made the mark. Glen Schal was more dangerous in the second half and Hall's half-time adjustments were very effective. ”

After the comeback goal, Aldridge stood up and applauded his disciples with a smile on his face.

After he sat down, Benitez asked puzzledly, "Why do you want him to take the inward route?" Isn't that a normal route for a winger to go down? ”

Aldrich just shook his head in the face of this question.

In this day and age, it is difficult to explain this problem clearly.

Over the next decade, players in many positions in European football will disappear one by one, after which they are colloquially referred to as classical, classical midfielders, classical wingers, etc., classical means the past, not the present or the future.

The disappearance of classical players or the sharp decline in competitiveness is inseparable from the overall football development environment, including the team's defensive posture, for example, in contemporary times, most teams still pay attention to the upper grab, which is also the survival space of the classical winger, the most fearless of the upper grabbing type of defender, you take the initiative to grab me, I have not discussed with you.

As for the other emphasis on the midfield position, the advantage of a strong center is to deliver shells on both wings.

The contemporary Peter Pan Ovemas is not that he does not have the ability to cut inside, but that he has a lot of strong center forwards in the penalty area in the Dutch national team, and he needs to send assists from the bottom crosses of the wings.

In the next decade, Spain, which has produced one excellent winger after another, has also fallen the hardest, and every time they have the angelic wings that the world has noticed, the international competition always ends miserably. The door to the last and even the national team is no longer open to classical wingers. Even if you bring it. It is not a pawn of mainstream tactics, but more of a supplement and change of tactics for the team.

The disappearance of the classical midfielder is essentially a static style of play that does not conform to the mainstream of European football.

Returning to the field, Liverpool were in a state of complete frenzy after being reversed, like enraged beasts, and the first 70 minutes of the game did not seem to tire them out, but instead ran more motivated.

The fans in the stadium stands held their breath, they hadn't felt this kind of pressure and tension at home for a long time.

I'm afraid that Liverpool will score in the next second.

Liverpool's tidal wave of attacking relied on unity and aggression. For a moment, Millwall was overwhelmed.

This kind of scene is not surprising to Aldridge, and today he also wants to thank Liverpool, but it is definitely praised.

Because the pressure brought by the Reds' crazy state is unprecedented for Millwall, even against Manchester United, Millwall has not experienced this kind of pressure, more in the local suppression, but Liverpool's running intensity today should be the highest Millwall has ever encountered of all opponents.

The pressure was too much for the players to resist, and Makelele even made a tackle that almost allowed Redknapp Jr. to equalise from distance.

Aldridge had to make a change, sending Gattuso to warm up and bringing him on with thirteen minutes remaining. Replace Trezeguet.

This formation became 4312.

The trio of Makelele-Ballack Gattuso was in charge of interceptions in front of the penalty area, with Nedved picking up in midfield.

There are less than ten minutes left in the game. Liverpool broke the cauldron and pressed the situation, passed quickly when receiving the ball, quickly counter-grabbed after losing the ball, and watched those red shadows encircle Millwall players like wolves, Aldridge saw the iron-blooded Red Army in his eyes!

But Millwall didn't leave much room for Liverpool to attack, with Makelele in charge of interception, Ballack compressing space, and Gattuso sweeping wide, which made Liverpool have big problems with the organization of the offensive in positional warfare.

Although Redknapp Jr. passes accurately, he is not outstanding in creativity, and the characteristics of this kind of player are generally praised, but compared with the top passing masters, they are superior to the judgment, the accuracy of the pass is just the basic skills, when to pass, where to pass, and tear up the defense with the pass is the highlight of the master's performance.

When the attacking space was compressed, Barnes couldn't find a way to get the ball, there were people everywhere in front of him, and he didn't feel comfortable handing the ball to the full-back who came up with the assist, so he chose to break through with the ball, using his foot skills to deceive Gattuso, but as soon as he accelerated, Makelle tackled over and accurately shoveled the ball from Barnes to the right.

Barnes quickly pounced to the left, the ball was there, Schneider got the ball and didn't wait for McManaman and Barnes to press up, he was on defense almost all the time, he was very bad today, but at this moment, he calmly passed the ball to the left side of the field with a long diagonal pass, which can be called a stroke of genius on the court.

The eyes of the crowd were focused on Millwall's second half, and the pass abruptly diverted everyone's attention, and then erupted into earth-shattering cheers.

Glen Charles crossed the halfway line and began to sprint, stopped the ball steadily and then dribbled two steps, Liverpool was empty at the back, there were only two central defenders, Babu stepped back to defend, but Scalles made the old mistake and took the initiative to defend Glen Char.

This time, Glen Charles did not choose to break through, there was too much space in the middle, Nedved looked at him while running, Glen Charles crossed diagonally to the middle, Nedved took two steps forward after taking the ball, and after Larsson tore the gap, he easily stuffed the ball straight over, and Babu couldn't catch up even if he had wings on his back!

Larsson stepped into the penalty area, James just rushed forward two steps, but saw Larsson come and slash the ball with his spirit, and the ball jumped lightly, making the ball game full of speed and collision passion just now suddenly have a turning point in rhythm.

The audience looked at the unfathomable little rainbow, as if they had suddenly gained a short peace from the vigorous atmosphere.

James looked back, and the ball hit the underside of the crossbar into the goal, and the rainbow crossed his head, causing him to bow his head and sigh.

"Brilliant goal! Larsson killed the game, 3:1, with less than 3 minutes left in the game, and it was almost impossible for Liverpool to get out of the game at the Lion's Den! ”

The Liverpool soldiers looked at their opponents who ran to the corner flag to celebrate, puzzled.

We became famous earlier than each other. On strength. Nor is it believed that Millwall's players have an overwhelming quality advantage.

But why. Millwall played so controllingly? The offense is fluid, and the offensive and defensive transitions are free.

In the last three minutes, Aldridge delayed the clock with another substitution, and Glen Charles came off the pitch to a round of applause from the fans.

His performance today was impressive, but in terms of efficiency, it was still miserable, and the success rate of passing and crossing was frighteningly low. But when it matters most, he can make the right choice, which means that he is growing.

Liverpool tried their best to make the last effort, but failed to rewrite the score, at the end of the game, Aldridge took the initiative to applaud, today's Liverpool is worthy of respect, at least in terms of tactics began to limit Millwall, but the characteristics of the players are not enough to make the tactics perfect, such as three midfielders, if there is an exclusive defensive back. Their offense and defense will be more balanced.

However, Millwall are also growing, and this group of players will be comfortable switching tactics. Then their individual ability will be one of the decisive factors in winning or losing.

The crowd also gave a standing ovation to the players of both teams, and despite the winner's mentality, the Lions fans praised the confrontational game.

Aldridge and Evans came together, and after shaking hands, they deliberately chatted a few more words.

Evans apologized for Collymore's insulting gesture, and Aldridge accepted the old manager's apology, and then also praised Liverpool's performance today, and the two left in quick succession.

Today, because it was a strong conversation, especially with Millwall's Premier League standings there, it was not a simple mixed zone interview after the game, but a press conference.

The players went to the mixed zone for live TV interviews, while Aldridge sat in front of a group of reporters.

Most reporters thought it was like Millwall had another win today, and with Collymore's middle finger in the game and Jenson being sent off with a red card, Aldridge should have fired at Liverpool, right?

But when asked about his evaluation of Liverpool's performance in this game, Aldridge surprised everyone.

"Liverpool today are one of the strongest teams Millwall have faced in two years, although they lost the game, they didn't lose the momentum and spirit, if they can keep playing today, they will have a good league position at the end of the season and will be more competitive in the future, on the contrary, I think Millwall started with a little bit of mental slackness and didn't show enough concentration for the opponent, which made us passive from the start and conceded first, but fortunately they adjusted quickly. I'm glad we came back from behind to win, but I don't want to see the team concede goals again before picking it up. ”

The reporters in the audience asked Aldridge about him, and they all wanted to hear what he had to say about Liverpool.

But Aldridge is unusual, compared to the hot buddies who mocked Liverpool before, most of his comments on the players today are also highly praised, even if Redknapp Jr. is commendable at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, but at least his dedication and concentration on the game have also been praised by Aldridge.

"Did you see what Collymore did?"

It is impossible to get around the topic of the controversial figure Collymore.

Aldridge only downplayed this: "I didn't see it, I was told by someone, and I didn't really care, even if he came for me, he seemed to forget that when he did it, he was wearing a red shirt with the crest of a big club that was recognized in England, in Europe, and even in the world, and only those with twisted values would think it was cool for him to do this, was it humiliating to me?" Is it to humiliate Millwall? Hehe, I think he's turned himself into a clown, he's putting Liverpool to shame, not Millwall, and when we're going to humiliate the opponent, we're going to use the win, we're going to make the opponent remember us with a bloody win, that's the right way to express your thoughts on the football pitch. ”

Aldridge is very open to this kind of thing, people who don't like him will humiliate him in various ways, and the players on the field will be in a hurry to get angry when they draw the middle finger?

Then he went to play away games, and the visual shock of the lewd gestures of countless fans was stronger than when one person made it, and the foul language from the stands was endless, if you can't stand this, don't be a manager.

The psychology of all kinds of people in football is very strange, you fail, some people laugh at you, you succeed, some people hate you, you are mediocre, and some people still scold you.

Millwall's rise is a reason to be hated.

How can a team on the cusp be liked by everyone? (To be continued......)
