Thanks for the reward of "Death of the Thief"! ——

The vast majority of fans who like Shevchenko may be because the Ukrainian nuclear warhead detonated the Apennines, Shevchenko on the field has left fans with countless unforgettable moments, and off the field, even if Aldrich in his previous life is not a fan of Sheva, there is still a picture that impresses him and will be unforgettable for a long time.

Shevchenko, dressed in a black coat and holding the European Golden Globe in his hand, stands next to a statue of a figure, calm but shocking: if you know the story behind this picture.

The owner of that statue is none other than Shevchenko's mentor in history: Lobanovsky.

In the original history, there were three legendary coaches of Blokhin, Belanov and Shevchenko, who won the European Ballon d'Or, and this achievement alone is comparable to another legend: Michels, and the three names under the Dutch coach are: Cruyff, Gullit, Van Basten.

Unfortunately, before Shevchenko won the Golden Globe, Lobanovsky died at a national funeral.

Aldrich felt a little cruel, and he took away Shevchenko's mentorship from Shevchenko, the head of the sect who had fought against the disease and would be buried in the ground in five years.

Lobanovsky can be seen in almost every period of Dynamo Kyiv, and this time is no exception, and the beginning of his third tenure at the helm of Dynamo Kiev was in the summer of 97, Aldrich took Shevchenko two years ago.

At this point, Aldrich felt cruel, but he did not regret it. Because he thinks Shevchenko is better than the same period in history. It's also more famous! In the case of Millwall FC and Shevchenko. It's a win-win situation, and Dynamo Kyiv may have regretted selling Shevchenko, but who made them accept Millwall's cheque back then? It's a free choice.

Aldridge walked respectfully to the home team's dugout, Lobanovski was a wise coach who would have stood on the sidelines and commanded his disciples to fight if it hadn't been for his deterioration later.

Today, he was standing on the sidelines and Aldridge walked in front of him. He greeted him respectfully and expressed his reverence in the simplest English.

Lobanovski was amazed at the humility of the young marshal from England, who had seen the news and had a vague impression of the young marshal in his mind.

Those wanton and arrogant and uninhibited boys who were rendered by the media were completely incompatible with the young man in front of him.

Especially in the last game, when the three-goal lead was over, Aldridge still let the team continue to attack like crazy, showing strong and pressing characteristics.

Lobanovsky is self-aware, and when he lives to the age of more than half a hundred, there is no need to go toe-to-toe with juniors in terms of momentum, and he looks more old and calm. But it's easy to talk to Aldridge.

Aldrich paid his respects in his way.

Seniors, let's have a good fight!

Lobanovski, for his part, joked that Millwall is a strong team to be reckoned with. Aldrich was young and promising, and used a tone of encouragement to his juniors.

Aldrich shook his head slightly as he turned to leave.

He knew how many catties and taels he had.

If he hadn't occupied the gold mine in advance, how could he have become rich in the world?

Compared to the success of other coaches, Aldrich does not dare to think that he can compete with others, let alone equalize legendary coaches like Lobanovski.

Of course, when you come to the court to compete, you can do whatever you have to do, and that little humility for the legend will be put away immediately.

When the Champions League theme song was played in the stadium, the players from both sides were already standing on the pitch, waiting for the game to start with their heads held high.

"The second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage in 97/98 kicks off, today at the home of Dynamo Kyiv, they will face Millwall, who are top of the group, both teams are currently on the same number of points, both are three, but Dynamo Kyiv has one less goal difference than Millwall, today's game is a key battle for both teams, if the final result of the game is a winner, then the winning team has a chance to qualify."

Aldridge watched the starting line-ups of both sides from the sidelines, and he discussed the situation of qualifying from the group with the players before the first game, and then asked the players to forget about the standings and try to win every game.

The most taboo thing in this kind of group stage is to think about how many games are left, how the situation will develop and so on.

It is very unwise to think about it, and there will be one more way out in the heart, unless the team's state and strength are completely at a disadvantage, then the goal should be realistic, and it is reasonable to calculate the gains and losses in each game.

But Millwall is not afraid of any team in the same group, the manager is not afraid, and the players cannot be afraid, and the psychological level must have the idea of "I can beat the opponent", and fight to get the knockout ticket.

Millwall started today with a formation they don't play often: 4321.

Goalkeeper: Bout.

Defenders: Schneider, Elguera, Southgate, Zambrotta.

Back three: Ballack, Makelele, Lampard.

Forwards: Larsson, Nedved.

Forward: Shevchenko.

The English reporters and Lions fans who watched the game at the scene saw the team put on such a formation today, and suddenly an illusion arose in their hearts: Aldridge is really afraid of Dynamo Kyiv!

In fact, this game is a visit, so it is normal to be conservative, and secondly, considering the situation of the opponent and the weather on the field, Aldridge believes that this Christmas tree formation is the most suitable.

When it comes to the Christmas tree formation, perhaps the most talked about after 2,000 years is Ancelotti's penchant to use it.

However, this formation is not a miracle in contemporary Europe, and no one thinks there is anything new about this formation.

Capello has been very successful in Italy, and when he went to Real Madrid last season, he basically used this Christmas tree formation. It's just that in the game, it often switches between 4321 and 4312. In this way, the horses suppressed Barcelona with aliens in the league. Two points advantage La Liga.

And this game, due to the weather, Dynamo Kyiv has the advantage of being at home, and the performance of the players will definitely be more active than Millwall, not that Millwall's players did not play in six or seven degrees of weather, but suddenly from a more than ten degrees of environment to six or seven degrees of environment, normal people will have some discomfort, and the weather suddenly becomes colder. Players with a sense of self-protection will sound the alarm, and with the lack of familiarity with the field, they will certainly not be as agile as their opponents in terms of running.

Because of this, Millwall's habitual 433 is too risky and aggressive, and even if it is 4231, Aldridge thinks it is not safe, because when the running may not be as good as the opponent's, the frontcourt players will be penetrated once they retreat slowly.

So today Aldridge used three midfielders, with Ballack and Frank Lampard both players with a lot of range of movement and good fighting. Solidify the backline and cover the second half of the defense in all aspects. To be stable.

Larsson played as a front midfielder as a front, in fact a second striker, who could pass and shoot, just like Raul did under Capello, and the lone arrow Aldridge chose the Ukrainian, who was clearly more comfortable with today's game than Trezeguet.

Dynamo Kyiv, although it seems to be a group of non-European mainstream famous players, but under Lobanovsky's tutelage, they have begun to shine, especially in the next season, when Dynamo Kyiv is more mature, it is simply a big kill, if it is not for the 3:1 lead in the first leg of the semifinals by Bayern to score two goals in a row, it is the Kyiv Dynamo who has achieved the treble.

Today the opponent lined up with a 451 formation.

Goalkeeper: Shovkovski

Defenders: Luzny, Hrovka, Vaschuk, Kaladze.

Midfielders: Haskovic, Husin, Kadash, Kosovski, Berkovic.

Forward: Rebrov.

In this starting lineup, there are two people who will become famous in the future, one is Caradze, who joined the San Siro, and the other is Rebrov, who AC Milan also wanted to bring in Shevchenko to reorganize the golden striker, but in the end, Rebrov failed to move to the Premier League and failed to complete the bottleneck to become a world-class striker.

Most of them are not well-known, because they have never set foot on the stage of the mainstream European leagues, except for Rebrov and Karadze, only Luzny has also landed in the top five leagues, but in Arsenal and Wolves neither showed the level of toughness in the Kyiv Dynamo, what is more strange is that there are two players who did not go west, but went east to Asia, and played briefly in China.

What did Aldrich admire Lobanovsky in his heart?

It's not because of the admiration of celebrities.

It's that Dynamo Kyiv is obviously missing Shevchenko, but Lobanovsky can still make the team perform well, although it is slightly inferior to history, for example, they failed to score a fourth goal at Camp Nou, and Rebrov looks better than the original history, Dynamo Kyiv has no better striker seedlings under the premise that Lobanovski has made Berkovic, an attacking midfielder, a more comprehensive attacking player, who can organize and break goals, under the cover of Rebrov, He was unstoppable when he switched roles, and at Camp Nou, Berkovic scored a beautiful goal.

Because of this, Aldridge felt that it would not be better than Lobanovski, who was able to transform a midfielder into a great wing-back in just a few months, such as Kossovski, which shows the manager's excellence, and in this regard, Aldridge is willing to give in and let him change the position and role of a player who is not "prescient", and he is afraid that he will have to study and ponder at home for weeks before he dares to make up his mind, because he is afraid of ruining the player's future.

The game is about to start, the two teams are in formation, and the Wild Lions fans in the stands are only a few hundred fans who came here to cheer on today.

After all, it's too far away, and the game is going on in the middle of the week, so if you want to come here to cheer on the team, the fans who have jobs have to take at least two days off, and the round flight will take more than 20 hours, not to mention the delay before and after the journey.

To have a few hundred fans here was enough to move Aldrich.

But the Lions fans in the stands were dumbfounded.

In the fan base of Dynamo Kyiv, there was a group of people who were shirtless and with open arms, shouting frantically for the team.

Lions fans are tempted to ask them: Isn't it cold?

There are crazy fans all over the world, and if Dynamo Kyiv fans know what the Crazy Lions fans are thinking, they will inevitably reply in a disdainful tone: Cold? Where is this? If you're lucky, if you come in December, you'll know if we're cold. (To be continued......)
