After Aldridge's team interviews, the furious Evan interviewed the players in the team during the training break in the next few days.

This has livened up the atmosphere in the team, and they are rarely able to be open and honest with the outside media compared to the pre-match press conference or post-match interviews, because after being familiar with the Fleet Street style, most of the players feel that any questions from the outside media are malicious to them, and will try to misinterpret what comes out of their mouths and create unnecessary trouble.

For example, if a player is asked about salary, no matter how the player answers, it will be interpreted by the outside world as dissatisfied with the salary, causing "scandals" in the transfer market.

After a defeat or a draw, the players' rhetoric comes into focus, which arouses a sense of self-preservation, and most of the media is in a formulaic tone, with nothing more than a few words and a static attitude.

But Evan's interview was clearly from the club's standpoint, and the players also wanted to express their thoughts through this kind of interview, whether it was gratitude or ambition for the future, and only if they truly felt like they were part of the place, they would have the desire to talk.

Southgate, as captain, was rightfully the first to sit in front of the camera.

When Evan asked him about his choice of Millwall, Southgate admitted: "I actually never wanted to join Millwall, I won't hypocritically say that I have dreamed of joining here since I was a child, because in the summer of '94, I was a regular player at Crystal Palace, and the relationship between Crystal Palace and Millwall is well known, and what I wanted to do at that time was to play in the Premier League and fight with Crystal Palace. But. The boss made a top-tier offer for me. It didn't seem like a big offer now, but it wasn't a small amount at the time, and the fact that Crystal Palace agreed to the offer without consulting me made me feel abandoned, and in that case I didn't think I could stay at Crystal Palace, and then the boss personally came to my door and persuaded me to join Millwall. I will never forget that day, at first I thought the boss was a cocky guy, and reason told me: he was just talking big, don't go crazy with him. But I was convinced by him, and I think it was an irrational passion that struck me at that moment, which is what football needs the most, and it cannot be described in words. And this passion is a must-have for many successful teams. Just like Manchester United, Liverpool, Ajax in the last three years, etc., football is a very special field, whether it is a player or a coach, if you just treat it as a job, it is difficult for you to succeed, the element of passion is one of the necessary qualities of a successful person, and the leader has this element in him, which deeply infects me. ”

Evan smiled and nodded, Aldridge did have that element in him, he made Millwall's football sexy and wild, and the players' exuberant fighting spirit on the field showed the quality of the players that the public wanted most.

"And how do you feel about life at Millwall two and a half years after you've been here? What are your plans for the future? ”

Southgate laughed and said: "I feel like I've improved very quickly since I came here, and it's important for me to have a strong sense of responsibility at the head of the team and to have a strong sense of responsibility at all times, and I'm in a very united and competitive team, which makes us look forward to great results, and I have to admit that if I'm in a mid-table team, it's hard to stay focused on the game over the course of a season and maybe get enough league points. Players are mentally slacking off, but here, no, from the first game of the season to the end of the season, we are full of winning belief in every game, hoping to win trophies at the end of the season, one, two, or more, in the last two years we have been improving, there are so many good team-mates around me, and that motivates me to move forward, otherwise I wouldn't be worthy of this good team, last summer I became a sinner in England, I just wanted to escape, but the first time the head appeared in front of me, He did more than I could have imagined, it was a difficult time, but it was also my most valuable experience, and now I can face all the difficulties and help my teammates in difficult situations, and play the role of captain. Future? I want to stay here, the fans, my team-mates, the boss, these are the three most important reasons why I never thought of leaving, Millwall will win their first league title this year, although the league is not over, but I believe we will not give the opponent any chance, we will play every game and then go to the UEFA Champions Cup next season, that is the stage of my dreams, and this is the stage that the team aspires to, and we can't wait to compete against the best teams in Europe. ”

Hearing his bold words, Evan nodded affirmatively, there are many messages that can be refracted from the players' mouths, including the pursuit of the whole team.

"You said you wanted to stay at Millwall for manager Aldridge, but are there any other reasons besides him bringing you in and nurturing you?"

Southgate laughed: "There are many reasons, and it is not clear for a while. Mature, he looks young, but his style of acting is completely out of line with his age, it's hard to see when he's restless, he'll praise you with restraint when he wins, and when he's defeated, he'll make you forget the shadow and pressure of defeat, and the phrase he often says is: it's business as usual. I think that's why we believe that we can succeed, that when we win, it's business as usual, we continue to win, and when we lose, we don't dwell on the past, we should focus on the next game, and we will not waver in our belief in winning. ”

Evan went on to interview the other players, most of whom expressed their gratitude for Aldridge's cultivation and their own understanding of Millwall's culture, especially the foreign players, who were blown away by the enthusiasm of the fans and even fascinated by the place.

When asked about Aldridge, the players reacted differently.

Nedved said: "The boss is a good coach with patience and he never gets angry at a player for no reason, even when the team loses. He will rationally analyze the reasons for the loss. If he reprimands a player. It must make sense, the coach in our team has an objective statistical system, every game, the coach of the first team will give each player a score on the field, this is not a rigid standard, for example, against some teams that are not as strong as us, the coach will have higher requirements for you, thinking that your performance should be in 8 or 9 points. And against a team that is stronger than us, if you show a 6 points of qualification, the coaches will be satisfied, if you have a 7 or 8 points, then you will be praised, on the contrary, if you only have 6 points against a weak team, then the boss will criticize you and absolutely you can't refute it. The diligence and wisdom of the leader. That's what impresses me and why I want to stay with him, and his professionalism invisibly motivates us to move forward. This is crucial. ”

Larson said, "Wow! Yes, he's redefined my role and ability on the pitch, I used to think I was a point-grabbing striker, but here I'm freer, I can do more, I'm improving every season, we're doing unbeatable, as a striker, I've scored a lot of goals in the game with my team-mates, and a lot of them are classic goals that we never get tired of looking back on, and it makes us enjoy the game and have fun, and I see people talking about Millwall always saying how easy they scored. I think that's superficial, because I don't think any other manager can make a team's offense so varied. Because he's only twenty years old! ”

Trezeguet's gratitude to Aldrich in interviews was overflowing, and even more so when talking about Aldrich.

"An unbeatable manager, he's going to be the greatest manager in history, yes, that's what I think, people laugh at me for not seeing the world, but I think if you give him time, he'll become a legend in coaching. Playing under him puts me under pressure, but it also makes me enjoy it because I don't get lost, and there are some teammates who want me to give me some experience when they first come to the team, and I tell them: if you don't know what you have to do, then go to the boss, don't think about anything, do what the boss tells you to do, and then you will find your worth. I don't say this to say that the boss is an unreasonable person, on the contrary, he likes to reason with me the most, and even I was a little annoyed, and for a while, he told me: David, I need you to be able to help my teammates up front. Then, I started to defend aggressively, but the leader was still not satisfied, and he said: "Give some help to your teammates in attack. I don't know why, because I'm a striker, my job is to score goals, but the boss told me a lot of tactical principles, to be honest, I didn't understand, but after a few games, I did what he said, and then I understood that now I can cover my team-mates and I'm scoring more goals than I did last year. The boss would happily tell me what I was doing, what kind of threat from my strike partner would give me more space, and I would tell the boss: just tell me what to do, and I'll do it, and that's enough. ”

In a series of interviews, Evan found that she didn't seem to notice so many characteristics in Aldridge, after all, each player's perspective is different, like Makelele, his gratitude to Aldridge is more out of appreciation.

His defensive role is considered key to the team's success, and Aldridge's tireless referral of him to the national team has greatly impressed Makellele, and the French national team has recently begun to show signs of calling Makelele, who feels he is an absolutely important figure at Millwall, which gives him a strong sense of ownership.

Schneider, Phillips and other players were grateful for the kindness of knowing that they were going to play in the German regional league in the summer of '94, and the latter was abandoned by the youth of the Premier League side and relegated to a low-level amateur club.

In interviews, the rest of the team's staff were full of hope for the club's future and prospects, and as part of the rise of Millwall, they are motivated every day to shape this small team that was once penniless into a behemoth.

The video footage of the team's interviews has not yet been released on official television, but it is expected to be officially launched on Millwall TV this summer, and the transcript immediately attracted a lot of attention after it was released on the official website.

This directly led to the server crashing of the official website in the first week of launch (to be continued......
