On the first day of the new year, the club was supposed to be on holiday, but Aldrich came to the club's conference room before dawn, sitting alone on the main seat with Erlang's legs crossed, and the other hand tapping unhurriedly on the table, as if weaving out of tune music.

In addition to the amazing intensity of exposing scandals, the British paparazzi are more pervasive than other national media reporters, and in terms of work efficiency, they also do the best follow-up work after the news breakout.

Having been dealing with the media for more than three years, Aldrich has experienced all the winds and waves, so it is natural to know what kind of scene he will encounter today.

So, he slipped away first, from his house to the club.

In this way, the reporters who flocked to his door were sure to return disappointed.

The door to the conference room was pushed open, and a dusty Nagy walked in, canceling his flight back to his Hungarian hometown today, and was about to board the plane, but rushed back to the club.

"I've heard about it, how should I deal with this kind of thing?"

Najib looked worried, he had never encountered anything like this.

In fact, Aldridge is also the first time, simply talking about club management, as long as the players do not deliberately slack off, the manager will not make a big fuss, especially the Millwall first team has three exemplary captains as examples, during the team's training, other players dare not make mistakes.

But can the head coach manage his private life off the field?

Maybe not.

However, when the image of a player's private life damages the image of the club. Aldridge feels him as the owner and the manager. It's absolutely manageable.

Najib sat down and didn't even drink his saliva. He frowned and worried.

"They are strong-blooded, and it sounds normal to find a woman, but why are you looking for a call girl? Even Joe Cole was involved, alas, he "

Najib feared that the players would be ruined by the chaos of their private lives, and he made a series of worrying speeches.

Aldridge was not only angry but disappointed, but seeing Najib's heartbroken appearance like this, he really felt sorry for this senior brother. At the same time, he was more angry at the actions of the players.

Look, your coaches have worked hard for you, eating and drinking Lazar all the time thinking about cultivating you into talents and making you famous, but what have you done!

"I've already called their agent, and I've been in the news at this point, so I've asked my agent to tell them that I'm waiting for them at the club."

Aldrich comforted Najib and closed his eyes.

This kind of thing makes him feel ashamed to deal with it.

Thankfully, during the Christmas season, foreign players from both the youth and development teams were accommodated and allowed to go home with their families on vacation. Ronaldo flew back to Brazil, and De Rossi went back to Rome. The other players are like this, otherwise, I don't know how many players in the road will be involved in this peachy turmoil.

From a legal point of view, the behavior of the players is not illegal, the call girl is legal, someone pays for it, someone takes off his clothes, you want it to happen.

But from a moral point of view, it's too unsightly!

Although most men must also want to have a second time if they have the opportunity, occasionally fantasizing about group-P or fighting with a good-looking call girl, but it is one thing to be dirty in their hearts, and it is another thing to put it on the table and make it public.

"Alas, England players are hard to manage, what a--!"

Aldrich waited impatiently, and estimated that the protagonists at the center of the vortex were exhausted and still asleep after a night's flow.

Najib nodded and sighed: "Yes, foreign players, especially young players, come here to live in a proper manner, and some people are even afraid of socializing with the outside world, I used to think that this was not good for them, but it doesn't seem to be good for them to really think of themselves as locals." ”

Aldrich shook his head helplessly.

Most outsiders will appear introverted when they come here, and it is impossible to feel free in an unfamiliar environment, and they are afraid of making mistakes.

But local players are different, they are very familiar with every grass and tree, they are not afraid of being bullied outside, they have a huge network of interpersonal relationships, a lot of fox friends and dog friends, they want to have fun with money, and they are afraid that no one will help them?

In fact, Aldridge is more humane and enlightened about player management.

has nothing to do with the iron fist at all, because he is more able to put down the shelf and communicate patiently with the players, and will not list a lot of "military discipline" and then let the players enforce it, whoever violates it will be punished, and he will not even give the players a chance to appeal.

Benitez disagrees with this, thinking that managing a team is like managing an army.

Aldridge continued to enlighten Benitez and asked him to think more about the players from the player's point of view.

If Aldridge remembers correctly, the reason why Benitez fell out with Alonso at Liverpool in history was that Benitez was too unreasonable.

Alonso wanted to go home to take care of his sick daughter, and Benitez replied with a cold face: "Go ahead, and never come back."

Alonso returned, then went away again, saying goodbye to Anfield.

There is discipline within the team, which is normal, but it can't be too rigid management.

For example, Trezeguet took a lot of leave for a period of time, and like a primary school student, he lied about his leave, so-and-so was sick, so-and-so had an accident, and he even made up a friendly match of the French national youth team as a reason to take leave.

Aldridge later searched all the matches of the French team, but did not find the match between the French youth team and the Swiss youth team mentioned on his leave note.

Aldridge didn't lash out at him, but took out the coach's game ratings, training reports to him, let him see with his own eyes, the decline in his performance, the difference in the quality of his training, and then asked Trezeguet to think about whether he should continue to take time off work to date his girlfriend, or play football honestly to achieve his childhood dream and realize the leap in his life value.

Under such management, Trezeguet reined in the precipice and took the initiative to apologize to Aldrich and confess everything. I never took a leave of absence since. And quickly restored to state.

The private life of the player. Aldrich really didn't want to ask, thinking that would turn him into a mother and a nanny.

A player like Frank Lampard, who is already a playboy, Aldridge has turned a blind eye.

He likes to change girlfriends, it's his own business, as long as it doesn't affect training and doesn't make love a distraction, Aldrick doesn't care how often he changes a girlfriend, and this kind of thing. Men love women, isn't it normal.

Treat players as individuals, and as long as their personal behavior does not affect their own work, that is, playing football, then there is no need for club management to have many restrictions on players.

More than ten years later, Ryan Giggs's "brother-in-law" shocked the football world.

But from the manager's point of view, Giggs is just a personal act, he did not interfere with his teammates, nor did he let himself become a cancer on the pitch of the team, and judged it fairly and objectively. He is a moral scum, but he is still a role model on the green field. The other players still have to learn from Ryan Giggs, but only the part of his football.

And like Liverpool's hot buddies are completely different, they are individual behaviors combined and become collective behaviors, which not only directly affects Liverpool's team results, but also makes Liverpool's club image suffer.

You drink and pick up girls on weekdays, play more chic than anyone else, and want to lift the championship trophy at the end of the season to be admired and worshiped by the fans, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

Therefore, Frank Lampard usually changes to a new girlfriend and will be in the gossip news, but Aldridge should only be out of sight, out of sight.

But last night's sex-party, that was unforgivable.

Leave this crooked trend unchecked, God knows how many players will be affected by them!

Especially with so many promising players in Millwall's youth squad.

It was after noon that the players walked into the conference room.

Joe Cole walked into the conference room in casual clothes with a trembling look, and he looked at Aldridge and Najib with a worried face in horror.

"Boss, Coach Najib, I, I, I left very early yesterday! It's true! ”

Joe Cole has never seen Aldridge with such a cold face, after all, Aldridge is older than him, and when Aldridge is free to go to the youth team, he will always encourage him or give an objective evaluation of his performance, and then guide him.

Just a month ago, when Joe Cole was just 16 years old, the club gave him a very generous professional contract, Joe Cole was recently in the spring breeze, never expected that the team's big brother called out to play with him on Christmas night, and played such a game!

"What happened last night, you tell me first."

Joe Cole was so calm that he didn't dare to sit down, but Najib was considerate and let him sit down, and then he began to tell the story of last night.

In fact, he was just idle and had a Christmas dinner with his family, and then he received a text message from Ferdinand, and the young man who was also very curious about the nightclub suddenly realized that he was an adult and should have seen the "adult world", so he went to the nightclub with a few friends.

But Joe Cole was sleepy until midnight, but Ferdinand gave them a big stimulus, and Joe Cole almost peed out as soon as more than thirty call girls appeared.

Although he is not a decent gentleman in his bones, but at the age of sixteen, he was "shy" in front of everyone, so he left the nightclub with his friends in a panic, as for what happened later, he didn't know, uh, what he swore was true.

Ashley Cole, who is a year older than him, is very open, at least when he leaves, Ashley Cole has hugged the two big sisters left and right with a smile on their faces

In fact, Aldrich is just curious, he wants to hear the story of last night, as for the punishment, he has a spectrum in his heart, of course, he will not be sentenced because of whether anyone has been on a woman or not, or how many have been on it.

The two coaches, plus the advertently terrified Joe Cole, continued to wait in the conference room.

The players who had been notified by their agents came one by one.

Every time Aldrich came, he asked about last night's story, and some people told it in great detail, causing Aldrich to shut up the other party, and some people were ashamed to say it, but now they began to pretend to be innocent.

It wasn't until the evening that the three protagonists from last night appeared, and it is said that the party was organized by the three of them.

Mills, Ferdinand, Lampard.

After the three of them arrived, the atmosphere suddenly became very depressing.

Aldridge sat in the main seat with his chin held high and stared coldly at the three players, one by one, as if they were on pins and needles, and then lowered their heads, looking embarrassed.

Fleet Street is in full swing, and yesterday's defeat to the defending champions was big news, but that wasn't enough, as Millwall gave them even more headlines.

Yes, the outcome of Millwall's game against Manchester United will be news, but the Millwall players are open – the party is as sensational as the atomic bombing.

Isn't Aldrich, who once despised Liverpool's hot brother, his own disciple repeating the mistakes of the past?

Well, it's not enough.

Why aren't there some more resounding names?

It would be nice if Pirlo, Schneider, Southgate, Trezeguet, Nedved, Larson were all involved! (To be continued......)
