The feud between Arthur and Bates is well known among the presidents of Premier League clubs, and Arthur and Arsenal vice-chairman Dane do not deal with each other, and the third place on Arthur's hatred list is Edwards, however, he looks down on Manchester United's old perverts, because as long as he rolls up his sleeves, the other party immediately becomes a coward.

Manchester United and Arsenal have found various reasons to exclude Millwall since Millwall was promoted to the Premier League last year, in addition to the small stadium and poor reputation, the most important reason is that Millwall has given Millwall more broadcast shares through family power, Millwall not only challenges the traditional power of the old pattern of the Premier League in competition, but also infringes on their share of the majority of the direct economic interests.

But it took Millwall two seasons to silence Manchester United and Arsenal, which in turn replaced Arthur's cynicism at Dane: When will Highbury expand? Oh, it seems that the surrounding area is full of houses, and there is no room for expansion, right?

It's just a lazy gesture to Edwards, as long as the other party doesn't provoke, Arthur doesn't want to have anything to do with the old pervert, as if the other party is covered in semen from head to toe makes him feel sick.

As for Bates, in addition to the fact that everyone is a mortal enemy, the most important thing is that Arthur can't stand Bates's arrogant attitude, obviously Chelsea has nothing, but he thinks he has a great credit.

Bates, a speculative businessman who had a reputation before becoming president of the club, had several investments in European financial circles, ranging from a few million to tens of millions of pounds, to put it simply, an unclean ass.

Football is a very closed circle, and the independence of the FA makes it possible to fight no matter how fierce the internal struggles. Once there is an external force to intervene in football, they will be strongly rejected. And whether it's black or white.

Bates, as president of the Premier League club, has been able to clean up the past. His debt-raising investment in Chelsea has also caused controversy, but it has been difficult for the outside world to investigate his club operations, not only from the FA but also from the Premier League, because every club has a basket of shady and shady deals behind the scenes.

Bates, a shrewd and cunning businessman, not only built his vision of the grand Chelsea Village, but also took the initiative to start a war in order to gain popularity, and his opponent was Dane before going toe-to-toe with Arthur. However, Arsenal have not been in good form in recent years, so he turned his gun and aimed at Millwall, and the original hatred between the two clubs was enough to cause a conversation.

Arthur sat next to Bates, enjoying a good drink and waiting for the game to begin, while Bates said nothing with a gloomy face.

"Old bastard, I heard that you have recently publicly questioned the source of the Hale family's assets? Hehehe, I heard a thief shouting about catching a thief. ”

Arthur held the wine glass in a tepid tone, and his expression was slightly feminine and unpredictable.

Bates's heart jumped, he was unscrupulous, and when he attacked Dane, he would hire a private investigator to investigate the other party. When it was his turn to fire with Arthur, he did it again.

He spoke to the media. Questioning whether the Hall family's financial resources can afford the financial expenses of the magnificent new stadium, and implying that the Hall family has gone from selling glass to billionaires in ten years, will there be something wrong with this?

Arthur didn't squint, and continued to say lightly: "Business, Bates, I'm not as good as you, and I don't care about these, it's all my three sons who are in charge, but, if you want to play this kind of trick, let's have fun, I'm also curious about Chelsea's financial situation, where does you get so much money to buy players and give high wages, your Chelsea village, all day long, is it really profitable?" I asked my eldest son, and he told me that in the European business circles, we still have a lot of friends in the Hall family, and I think I can find out a lot of insiders. Do you really want to play? Dare to play? Can you afford to play? ”

Cold sweat oozed from Bates's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!" ”

He probably remembered at this time that he used to play around, and it was only a million-million-pound capital game, and the Hall family had more than 200 million pounds of assets three years ago, and in these three years, the growth of wealth was still a jaw-dropping rate.

With the connections in the circle, the reputation of the Hall family is well-known, and he is not much different from the rats crossing the street.

Arthur took a sip of wine and laughed, "Misunderstanding? Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, alas, if I didn't have you, I might feel lonely. ”

He said it as if he was joking, but in his heart he had another thought: if Bates continues like this, Chelsea will be more and more in debt, have no record, and wait for bankruptcy

In the away dressing room at Wembley Stadium, Aldridge stood in front of the players with his arms crossed over his chest.

'Everybody knows that today is our last game of the season and I'm sure you're going to take it 300 per cent seriously, but I want to talk about two points, the first is mentality, we beat Chelsea twice in the league this season, which may make you underestimate, now give you a minute and ask yourself, did you think about it in your head: Chelsea? If you are defeated, you will be victorious! ”

The players looked at each other, looking at Aldrich's cold face, and suddenly some players lowered their heads in shame.

That's what many people think.

England's traditional triumvirate, who had just beaten La Liga giants Barcelona in the European Cup Winners' Cup, asked 10,000 neutral fans the same question: who is stronger Chelsea or Barcelona? More than 9,000 of them will say: Barcelona, and the rest will ask: Who is Chelsea?

The answer is obvious, according to this reasoning, Millwall beat Barcelona 4:1, so playing Chelsea is not like chopping melons and vegetables?

Aldridge's face did not show any relief, and he knew that there were many disadvantages for Millwall today, the fans in the stands were not cheering evenly, and the competitive factors included the players who had just returned from the Netherlands, they were like Barcelona, they would be physically tired, and after a big game, especially if they won, they would be a little flustered.

'Give you two more minutes and you'll be able to forget about the double against Chelsea and the two league defeats we've lost this season. A cup match. There are also seven unwinnable draws! Think back to these games. Think about it, are those opponents stronger than us? Why didn't we win? ”

The players had already understood Aldridge's intentions at this time, and they became solemn in spirit, their faces were serious, and they put away all their contempt.

Aldridge continued: "You guys have basically been through last season when we won two cup trophies, remember our mentality? We almost let Aston Villa take away the trophy because we were more anxious mentally. The eagerness to lift the trophy has affected our performance, and today it is the same for Chelsea, whose last trophy was the European Cup Winners' Cup 26 years ago and the FA Cup 27 years ago, so they are desperate and desperate to prove that they are better than us in the almost 30-year gap between the trophies. Prefer to be the starting point of the club's journey to glory, but. We're not going to give them a chance! This brings me to my second point: our posture! ”

The players stared at Aldridge and nodded earnestly.

It's the same final, but Aldridge won't talk about honor and spirit with the players.

Clichés sometimes don't make much sense and don't work out the same.

Millwall are the reigning FA Cup champions, a distinction that has been won by the players, and they have already won two trophies this season, plus the advantage of Chelsea in the game record, if Aldridge only pales in words to boost the morale of the players, it is estimated that it will not do much.

Like his tactical arrangement, he will patiently let the players understand why he plays like this, what kind of effect the tactics will be, and only when the players themselves understand can they better implement the tactical concept.

'We're more tired than Chelsea, there's no doubt about it, we don't have to lie to ourselves, we only played a tight game two days ago and you were unbeatable and if you want to replicate what you did two days ago today, I don't think it's possible at least in terms of running. Don't think I'm striking you, irritating you, no, I'm just telling the truth. I don't want you to put pressure on yourself and force yourself, because that might hurt you. There are countless teams in the world that can play offense, our tactical system is very mature, and you are also comfortable with offensive routines, but I want to see your mature mentality, and the whole team is more mature! ”

Hearing Aldridge say this, everyone was curious, and Nedved asked, "Boss, what should I do?" ”

Being more mature means they become better, and no one doesn't want to be better.

Aldridge said lightly: "A team that can attack is not terrible, what is terrible is that a team that can attack as much as it wants knows how to forbear, I mean, we have to control the game from the overall situation, from the whole game, rather than pursuing a period of outbursts, this is dominance!" When we are fit, we can press the opponent all the time, but what about when we don't have the physical advantage? We also have to win, and winning makes the opponent despair, this morning's tactical arrangement, many of you may think I'm too cautious, I don't think so, I think, it's time for you to understand what is the real top team, we can't just rely on a momentum to win, rely on explosiveness to win, what is the real strong team? When you are in good shape, you can win beautifully, and when you are in bad shape, even if you don't play well, you can still win! This is the real strong man, the strong man who makes all opponents afraid and desperate, the strong man who makes the opponent helpless but watches us take away the victory even if we are obviously at a disadvantage! ”

In the dressing room, all the players were shocked.

Looking at Aldridge with a determined expression, they felt incredible, and at the same time they were shocked, and at the same time, a wonderful feeling rose in their hearts.

If you are in good form, you can win beautifully, and if you are not in good shape, you can also take away the victory.

Who wouldn't want to be such a strong person?

There is no need to fool yourself into thinking that a player will be in the best shape every game, there are ups and downs in the player's form, either because of the body, or because of the mind, anyway, there are thousands of reasons for not being in good shape.

But if they can win when they're not at their best, it obviously makes them more mature and more dominant on the pitch.

"Today, you're going to play a game like that, and I'm confident you can do it."

Aldridge then turned and left the locker room. (To be continued......)
