Before Aldridge became England national team manager, the demand from England fans for him to take over the national team was very high, and the number given by the media survey was that 93% of England fans supported Aldridge to take over the national team.

However, in the selection of the most popular coach in the same period, Aldridge only came in second, the first place was Bobby Robson, and the gap between the two was also relatively large, Robson had 3o% of the vote, and Aldridge only had 18%.

There is a big difference between the two selections.

Supporting Aldridge to coach the national team is the best option in the eyes of local fans, and it has nothing to do with whether Aldridge is popular or not.

Just like when Florentino entered the palace of Real Madrid for the second time, in fact, many Real Madrid members didn't like him, but at that time, Florentino was the best choice for members, even if they were "hurt" by Florentino's superstar policy in the first phase.

There are many reasons why British fans don't like Aldridge, for example, the highest proportion of local fans must be the traditional three giants plus Millwall, as well as those old powerhouses, Aldridge led Millwall to cause them countless injuries, even if it is not the biggest rival and sworn enemy, their own indisputable Liverpool fans, can not forget Aldridge at Anfield again and again ravaged their beloved team.

Most of the fans who like Aldridge are neutral fans, as well as those fans of the team who have no competition with Millwall at all, and in the hearts of many fans of small clubs, they actually hope that their club can also have an Aldridge and lead their small team to rise in England like leading the Lions.

With Aldridge leading the national team's record all the way up, the world preliminaries climbed from the penultimate ladder to the top of the group, and the goal difference changed from negative to 2o! Defeated the German team on German soil for the first time in an official match, and after this Anglo-German battle, Aldrich's popularity soared again!

Many big club fans also began to like him, and this liking overcame the hatred between the clubs, leaving aside a certain level of influence.

Just like when Pele was at the tipping point of the 1,000-goal record, his opponent fans would cheer for Pele in the stands. Even when their own players ruined Pele's goal, the fans would turn back and blame the players they were supporting.

To put it mildly, it's a sublimation of affection.

To be realistic, it is to be convinced by the strong.

The psychology of advocating the strong is the eternal law of human beings, or the natural world.

When Aldridge attended the post-match press conference, the German media reporters were as black as carbon.

Uniform. Today's football news in the German media is all about ridiculing the England manager and Fleet Street's farce yesterday.

It is far-fetched to interpret it with infighting, and it also hypes up the strength of German football by the way.

It's not that they're shameless, it's that the coach said so!

The Anglo-German war ended, and the German media were stunned.

I didn't know what to do with myself for a while.

Fleet Street was ecstatic, and when Aldridge appeared at the meeting, many British reporters applauded directly.

"Mr. Hall. Yesterday you said that German football is very strong, and there is a gap between English football and German football, is that remark a kind of psychological warfare? Let the German team underestimate the enemy? Smoke grenades? Confusing opponents? ”

As soon as Aldrich sat down, the reporters on Fleet Street asked questions with a smile.

These Fleet Street reporters were smiling, and between their words, their eyebrows were raised. It's no longer the strict sù of yesterday's-for-tat confrontation with Aldrich, on the contrary, they think they have been tricked!

But I'm glad to be played by Aldrich!

Bad boy, yesterday was acting, right?

They forgot that Aldridge always used psychological warfare when he coached Millwall, and they thought that this kid had relented in the position of national team manager, but they didn't expect that the time had not come.

In the eyes of the reporters, Aldridge's words yesterday were all in the service of victory. Let the Germans underestimate the enemy, let the Germans take the initiative to attack at home with the pride of the strong, and then England will clean up the German team by chopping melons and vegetables.

Aldrich laughed dumbly when he heard the reporter's question.

He shook his head and said sincerely: "What I said yesterday is what I really think, and even if you ask me now, I will still say that German football is stronger." ”

"England just beat Germany 6:o away!"

"If football is strong, it wins. So what's the fun of the sport? ”

"So where is the strength of the German team?"

"With will and determination, the German Football Association has formulated plans for the future development of the German team, from the reconstruction of Bayern Munich's youth training system to the long-term construction of the entire German football. I think that's why the German team can last so long in world football. ”

"What you're talking about is too far from reality."

"Far away? I don't think so. On the contrary, the media is always focused on the present and ignores the long term, and when Millwall has players in the youth team such as Ronaldinho, Alonso, Villa and so on, you never pay attention to them, and when one day they suddenly explode on the pitch and you ask why Millwall have been successful, I think it's funny. As far as I know, just Bayern Munich's youth team has a new batch of very good young players in training, while England's long-term construction foundation has lagged behind Germany, and the emergence of talents and living space are also far behind Germany. England won today, but in all aspects of football, England is still inferior to Germany. ”

"Mr. Hall, don't you think your statement is contradictory?"

"Contradictions? No, it's you who interpret victory too one-sidedly. Millwall lost to Everton last season and were broken by their unbeaten streak, and then what? No one would say Everton are stronger than Millwall! Football is not a sport that lives in the past, and it is not a sport that can be summed up by winning or losing. If England thinks that if they win Germany by six goals today, our strength will leave Germany far behind, this idea is simply naïve and ridiculous, we have to improve, we must first recognize ourselves all the time, know our position, when it comes to the game itself, Germany is not the strongest team today, Germany was successfully limited by us today, we showed our level of strength, because England is more eager to win than Germany, just today, in the 9o minutes of this game, we showed determination and will. To be stronger than the other party, so we must recognize the reality, in order to win, maintain this sense of hunger and thirst, maintain such a fighting spirit, team spirit, and do not allow ourselves to have a trace of slackness. Put all your attention on football and we can succeed, but it takes a lot of effort and it's not easy to do. ”

The reporters on Fleet Street are depressed again!

Young marshal, you're going to die if you're crazy!

Humiliating the German team here will die!

Journalists, you want great news.

Not to mention after this game. Fans in England are bound to be in high spirits, who want to consume their newspapers and flip through them: Aldridge believes there is still a gap between England and Germany.

Journalists are reluctant to write this kind of article that discourages enthusiasm.

The Germans, known for their rigor, were in awe of Aldrich.

And there is a real jealousy in my heart.

Football field, winning or losing is normal, what will happen in 9o minutes, and will the strength determine a qiē? Definitely not.

Even if Germany wins, the German media will still find out what problems the German team exposed in the game. What is the purpose of criticism? Sensationalism? No, of course for the sake of the German team!

If Aldridge humiliates the German team after the game, the German media will also vent their anger and criticize him, but there will always be thoughts of looking down on the England team.

When you win a game, you are carried away by victory. What is there to fear from such an opponent?

But Aldridge was extremely calm, and his remarks both affirmed the performance of the England players and pointed out the factors for success, encouraging them, and at the same time implicitly warning that the England team should not get carried away.

Deeper. It also points out the essence of the gap between English football and German football.

Can such an opponent not be feared?

Winning you today is nothing, how can you build an advantage in the long run. That's the point.

Fortunately, Aldridge is not the head of the FA, and he cannot change the deformed structure of the English league, he has a vision, but he cannot put it into practice, England is not under the control of the FA, what Aldridge said is just empty talk.

German journalists found it ridiculous.

Before the game, the coach of the England team had an "infighting" with Fleet Street, and after the game, the two sides broke up unhappily.

What a wonder the English are!

came to Germany's turf, and was the protagonist both inside and outside the field.

When flying back to London, Aldridge sat alone in the back of the cabin, the excitement of the players was clear at a glance, and he didn't say anything, anyway, his post-match remarks will be reported tomorrow, which will definitely be seen by the players.

He had to restrain his team and warn his players in moderation.

This five-game winning streak may not be much for the top teams, but if it is placed on England, it may brew the consequences of overconfidence and self-aggrandizement.

Because this is a team that is not mentally mature.

In the original history, England won 5:1 away to Germany, and a month later, Greece was directly at home with a 2:1 lead before the last minute. And the previous game was against the background of the away bloodbath!

It's not a matter of strength, it's not a matter of technique and tactics, it's a matter of psychology and mental temperament.

It's a bit like Aldridge's second year in charge of Millwall, where the team might get carried away and think they're crazy and God can't stop you, but when the opponent is calmer and more cautious with you, you'll be poured a basin of cold water all over you.

This is a crucial stage, whether it can shape the team's strong mental temperament, combined with the tactical system implemented by the England team, will have a very big impact on next year's World Cup.

Aldridge closed his eyes and recuperated, won two of the three decisive battles, England reversed, and the last decisive battle, taking the lead, as long as he did not make mistakes, the top spot in the group was not a problem.

On the bright side, at least after the win over Germany, his authority in England was at its peak, and the players were very happy with him, which was much better than when he was helpless at Millwall.

"The World Cup, it's exciting."
