Ronaldo has been waiting for Aldridge to appear in front of him since he was substituted in the game, and he has a lot to say to Aldridge this time.

As soon as Aldrich sat down next to him, he took off his headphones and opened his mouth.

"Boss, I felt great today, really good, you should have let me play the whole game I felt that the opposing defenders couldn't defend me at all, and then they became two centre-backs, and the defensive gaps became bigger, if I was on the pitch, I can I don't understand, I think we can score more goals, for sure"

Xiao Luo kept talking, and there was sometimes resentment in his words, like the feeling of a child having a temper.

When he kept saying that he couldn't say any more, he closed his mouth and looked straight at Aldrich, waiting for an explanation.

Aldrich spread his palms and said lightly: "Look, this is your problem." ”

"What's wrong with me?"

'Your problem is that you start to play how you want to play and play how you want on the pitch.

"What do you mean?"

Aldridge sighed lightly and said: "If you play according to your ideas, Pavel also plays according to his ideas, Thierry, Henrik, Andrea, etc., the 11 players on the field, all play according to their own ideas, are you sure, this will be a team?" Can you work together? Will you be able to win the game in the end? Aren't you conflicted by conflicting personal ideas? ”

Xiao Luo frowned and said nothing.

Aldridge said patiently: "In the game just now, I kept the whole team in a steady pace. This is for my tactical purposes. And you're on the pitch focused on attacking. The other teammates can't just watch you rush forward with the ball, so you bring the other players and violate my tactical requirements, I won't discuss with you whether my tactical arrangement is correct or not, and I won't explain this to you, because it's not what you should care about, what you should think, there is only one thing you have to do. Whatever I tell you to do on the field, you do it, obey my tactical arrangement, I have only one purpose, to lead the team to victory, and what is your purpose? If you have the same purpose as me, for the team's victory, for the team's brilliance, then you have to cooperate with me. Right now. Tell me personally, what are you looking for in Millwall's shirt? What exactly? ”

Aldrich breathed lightly. With a serious expression, it brought unprecedented pressure to Xiao Luo, and under Aldrich's unquestionable words and questions, Xiao Luo swallowed his saliva and said in a deep voice: "I also hope to help the team win." ”

"Well, we got on the same page. I hope you can prove it with your actions and don't let me down. ”

Aldrich pressed one hand lightly on his shoulder, stood up and relaxed his tone, and smiled: "Well done today, scared the Germans." ”

Xiao Luo just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly heard Aldrich's praise, raised his head and smiled, and after Aldrich walked away, he shook his head.

Obviously, he was bitter at the beginning, but after the worst, he became self-blaming and frightened.

Especially when he was questioned just now, and Aldrich's commanding tone, his heart suddenly hung up, he was really not afraid of Aldrich's anger, but afraid that the other party would exude a faint and majestic posture.

For Brazilian players, it is natural to be free and loose, and occasionally one or two players who are strict with themselves, especially those who can integrate into the European team system, are praised as role models, they have a technical advantage over European players, but often lack team centripetal force.

Aldridge didn't want Roin Jr. to end up being a player outside the tactical system.

There are three choices before him.

First, Xiao Luo left.

Second, with Xiao Luo as the absolute core, bet all the team's honor and disgrace on him, give him absolute privileges, he played well, the team must win every battle, his state has declined, and the team has collectively slumped.

Third, try your best to train Xiao Luo to be a team player, restrain his freedom, and let him serve the team as best he can.

The first option, Aldridge never imagined, whether it was from the perspective of team building or personal feelings, his personal relationship with Ronaldo also prompted him to never think that he would sell Ronaldo one day in the future.

The second option will become the mainstream of many giant teams in the future, and the team building mode of superstars is commonplace, but the accompanying concern is that superstars often dominate the trend of the whole team by one or two people, and when they are not in the state, they are not on the field, they will form a world of contrast to the team's record, Aldridge set out to cultivate a lot of stars, but he will never give the most famous stars privileges on the field, this is the team's founding philosophy and team development purpose, if there are stars who have to have some kind of privileges, such as not participating in defense, It's just an offense, or a goal himself, and the other players have to surround him and serve him, then Aldridge has only one answer: get out.

What he is doing now is the third option, inhibiting Xiao Luo's freedom, this is not only for the sake of the team, but also for Xiao Luo's career to make a decision, some talented players, that is, must put shackles on him, give him a fixed rule to follow, there are many such counterexamples, there is no need to list as many South American players as starry, England's most talented talent in the past ten years Gascoigne, he is already regretting now, why did he not go to Manchester United in the first place, if under the discipline of Ferguson, His career would have been a different story, and his whole life could have been different.

Millwall returned home in triumph and were greeted by a large number of fans outside the airport.

The Lions went to Munich, and there must have been many people in the fans who were worried, after all, they lost last year, and now the results of the first leg are out, Millwall won 3:1, this result made the fans overjoyed, and it seems that the team has no problem reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League for three consecutive years.

The next day, Fleet Street also sang the praises of Millwall.

"1:0 to 1:3, a year, what happened? 》

The Times first took Millwall a year before when it defeated Munich. Aldridge's full speech on the morale of the team as soon as it was first after the game was republished. This is news that has been hyped up last year. Aldridge asked the team to get their heads up and back on the road, saying that the defeat was a new starting point, which received a lot of applause at the time.

A team will inevitably fail and even slump or sink for a period of time, but whether it can bounce back and make a comeback is one of the important factors to measure the temperament and strength of the team.

During the year, Millwall wasn't just talking big. It's about fulfilling the promises made at that time.

A year later, Bayern Munich is still one of the top European teams Bayern Munich, Millwall is also one of the protagonists on the Champions League stage from a popular point of view, but the difference in strength between the two seems to be much larger than the outside world thinks, Millwall's huge lead in the Premier League is only considered to be Millwall and the Premier League powerhouse opened the strength gap, but when Manchester United, the defending champion of the Champions League who is desperate and can only mourn in the league, also breaks into the Champions League quarterfinals, the whole of Europe must admit, Millwall are not at the top of the Premier League. Rather, it is widening the power gap with the giants of Europe as a whole.

There is no league at the weekend and the FA Cup quarter-finals are on schedule.

Millwall will host Arsenal.

The day before the game. Aldridge struck the nerves of the substitutes like a general on a parade of troops.

"Lately the outside world has been singing about Millwall, thinking that we are so strong that we only have the word overlord written on our faces, and I can tell from the look on your face when you train recently that it makes you feel very proud as well. However, I think it's all shit, you guys, you're too early to be happy, go home and look through the photos, see which one of the winning teams has you, go into your honor room and count the medals, and then you ask yourself: Can you laugh? If you can laugh, wouldn't you be an idiot? ”

A cold wind blew through and the substitutes who will play in the FA Cup tomorrow got goosebumps.

Summer is coming, but they feel a little cold.

Come to think of it, yes, what a smug fart!

Lately, Aldrich has found the media to be a bit odd.

It's still early in the summer transfer window, but many big clubs or first-team teams have begun to rumble scandals with Millwall.

Especially the Italian team.

There is no way, Italy's traditional top three only AC Milan played in the Champions League this season, and they were eliminated in the first stage of the group stage.

The other three teams, Parma qualifiers, Fiorentina were eliminated in the second group stage, and Lazio, the only one to reach the quarterfinals, was slaughtered by Valencia 5:2 just two days ago.

The world's No. 1 league?

The Little World Cup?

In the new millennium, the dominance of Serie A began to waver, which can be seen directly from the results of European competitions, which have been reduced by one gear a year.

The year before, Juve's ticket to the final was snatched by Millwall.

Last year, Juventus fell at the feet of Manchester United.

This year, there is only one Serie A team in the top 8, and it will stop at the top 8 if nothing else.

The decline in the competitiveness of the European competition may be related to the serious internal friction of the league, but if the European stage cannot play results, the reputation of the first league in the world is really not good to rest on their heads, but fortunately, the Serie A teams now have money, and they are willing to burn money, so it is imperative to dig people.

In the football circle, there is no club to beat on the field, and there is another way to crush this opponent: the people who poached you!

Millwall has become the target of public criticism, rich, famous, and shameless, anyway, almost the entire team of Millwall has recently been in the media of different European countries to have scandals with strong teams.

Aldridge is not too worried about the main players, after all, everything that should be given is given, but these substitutes are also looked down upon, he is afraid that these fledgling players will really be bombarded by sugar-coated shells, thinking that he really has the ability to take charge of himself.

So, he's going to bang on these players and wind them up mentally.

Seeing the bench players standing in front of him with their heads held high, Aldridge walked up to Klose and said softly: "Do you know what I saw?" ”

Klose stared left and right, a bit of a plea for help.

They were used to Aldrich's leap-thinking mindset, but they didn't want to be stumped by questions.

"Conspiracy. It's all a conspiracy from the outside. Now, there must be a lot of people waiting to see a good show, isn't Millwall a cow? Isn't Millwall crazy? So what if you lose? Won't I be able to trample on you unscrupulously then? ”

Aldridge walked past Klose, and the little carpenter finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"If you become arrogant because of your pride, despise your opponent, and lead to defeat, then the outside world, including me, will make fun of you like an idiot, and you will take it seriously if you say two beautiful words, you are better than a three-year-old child! If you don't want to be a laughing stock, close your ears for me, ignore the rumors from the outside world, take every day's training seriously, face the next game with all your fighting spirit, and be ready to be the main force of the team at any time! ”

As soon as Aldridge's words fell, the substitutes erupted into a roar in response to his reprimand. (To be continued......)
