Thank you for the rewards of "Death of the Thief", "Qingqing Little Wolf" and "The Gorgeousness of the Sun God"! ――

The stadium was quiet and only the Liverpool fans could make some noise.

Lions fans don't seem accustomed to the sight on the pitch, and the numbers on the scoreboard seem to be out of order.

Especially at home!

Aldridge stood up and walked to the sideline for the second time, then made a fierce gesture towards the player, without any indication of tactical adjustments, he simply struck his left palm with his right fist.

The first goal conceded, the responsibility lies with the manager, it is Aldridge who has a problem with the tactical arrangement, and he corrects himself.

For the second goal, the responsibility is not the manager's, and it is difficult to blame the players.

Because Liverpool is a set-piece attack to create chaos, the second attack only seized the opportunity, such a loss of ball, it is difficult to criticize the player, after all, the frontal defense is held once, in the case of the crowd, between the lightning and flint, it is normal to stare at people for a moment.

But Aldridge was still angry, and the reason he was angry was that Millwall seemed to be mentally slacking off today.

The game felt slow, and it was probably thought that after 9o minutes of play, they would get a well-deserved victory.

Who is the opponent?

Liverpool.

They beat Liverpool to the north!

Aldridge's move is simple, which is to get the players to cheer up, put their heart and soul together, and bring the rhythm of the game up.

It stands to reason. Liverpool attacked away today, but they also set up a 442 formation. Concentrate on playing in the middle. There was almost no attack from the wing, and Millwall should use this as a breakthrough to suppress the opponent by attacking frantically on the wing.

But because of the slackness of the fighting spirit, it did not form a suppression, but was scooped up by Liverpool for a set-piece opportunity.

Aldridge doesn't blame the conceded goal, only blames why Millwall didn't create more scoring opportunities!

Offense and defense are integrated, and it makes no sense to simply say that defense or offense is one.

Millwall had to rely on offense to suppress the opponent in order to improve their defense. Otherwise, offense is offense, defense is defense, playing rugby?

When the players on the field saw Aldrich's expressions and body movements, they all understood: the boss is unhappy!

They were even more unhappy.

To be honest, Liverpool scored a goal in the opening game, and everyone felt that this game should be won easily in a familiar rhythm.

But Liverpool scored two goals in a row to turn the score around, as if giving Millwall a slap in the face.

They looked at the Liverpool players who were celebrating across from them, and their minds were mixed. Roughly a haughty rage.

Grass, the Red Army is going to revolt?

Millwall was not born with glory and superiority. But there are strong people who are proud of their brilliant records, they are not born the strongest, but they are fighting hard to get out of today's football status, income, influence, praise, honor, which are all based on their own hard work, because of this, this arrogance is more determined, unlike some players who have hypocritical arrogance just because they are born in a wealthy family.

Instead of walking back to the dugout and sitting down, Aldridge kept waving his arms and signaling the players to attack, and his body movements kept the game going.

Phil Thompson saw that Liverpool could lead Millwall on the road and score two goals, which is incredible, not everyone can score in this stadium, let alone score two, let alone lead Millwall.

It was like a heart booster injected into his body, which shook his spirit.

He also constantly encouraged the whole team with his words and deeds, and devoted himself to the command of the operation.

Liverpool took the lead and began to play a little conservatively, focusing on counter-attacking opportunities.

However, they had a congenital deficiency in the line-up, and the old situation was once again on the table, with two strikers in play, and the midfield defence seemed overwhelming, especially when Millwall's two full-backs assisted up.

In the 36th minute, Xiao Luo missed an excellent opportunity to score, he stepped forward to cut the rib space, Nedved and Henry cooperated, Henry took the ball with his back and plugged the rib space, Xiao Luo rushed to the horse and threw off Carragher, Hyypia could not help defend at the first time, he faced the goal except that the angle was not too good, no one interfered at all, but Xiao Luo shot the ball into the stands.

Aldridge applauded the attack and encouraged the players to keep up the good work.

The tempo of the game was raised to a very fast pace by Millwall, and then stabilized at this tempo, the attacking coordination was smooth and tacit, and the players' movements were unpredictable, even if Liverpool were conservative, but they were tired of running on the defensive line.

Before half-time, Zambrotta tried a long-range shot from outside the box, the ball bounced off Henjoz, Pirlo followed up with another long-range shot, this time it was very tricky, and now Pirlo's long-range shot has been honed to the point of being a very dangerous fire, Dudek made a brilliant save and fell to the ground on the goal line to block the ball with his hands.

But he didn't get out of the way too well, the ball bounced up, Larsson seized the opportunity, rushed over the ball as it bounced, and then jumped high without waiting for the ball to land, and when the ball began to fall, he headed it over and flew into the far corner.

After the goal, Larsson rushed over to pick up the ball and ran back.

'Millwall equalised just before half-time! The scorer is Larsson, uh, count carefully, Larsson's goals this year have also reached 37 goals, Millwall's forward firepower is so strong that Henry Gallarsson alone, the two can contribute 8o goals a year together. 2-2, Millwall put the game back on their track, but a draw at home was certainly unacceptable. ”

Despite the equaliser and Millwall's momentum, Aldridge walked into the tunnel with a blank face, and the referee did not make stoppage time at all, and Liverpool's kick-off attack was frustrated, and the time went to the end of the first half in the 46th minute.

In the dressing room, Aldridge waited for the players, after all the players walked in and closed the door. Aldrich said in a deep voice, "Maybe you don't have a pursuit. Maybe you're honoring enough. Maybe you guys, grass, I don't care what the you guys are thinking, five years ago, three years ago, two years ago, I wouldn't have said anything to you, we're going to win the league 99 percent this season. But if you lose the game today, the 1% chance of losing the championship will rise to 3o%, why? It's not the change in the standings, it's the change in your mentality, it's football, it's a competitive sport described as a battlefield, it's far more brutal than you think, no team is afraid of losing, the most feared thing is to lose the tireless pursuit of victory, even if it wins by 1o goals against the opponent. We must still pursue the determination to continue to expand the victory! Someone thinks enough is enough, it's time to stop. Okay, sue me, I'll send you to one of the most comfortable clubs to retire, even if some of you are still young, but since you have reached the mentality of pension, then go to retire! Millwall, don't need players without ambition! ”

As soon as the words fell, Aldridge strode out of the locker room.

There was dead silence in the dressing room.

Some players can't understand Aldridge's anger, even if his expression doesn't look angry, but the words that come out are the expression of Thunder's anger.

For example, Bout, a goalkeeper, stood in the penalty area for 45 minutes, what can you see?

The players sitting on the bench can't see it, and the level of thinking is not the same as that of the manager.

It would be ridiculous to say how bad Millwall played in the first half.

But as a coach, if you really wait for the team's table to plummet before solving the problem, then it's too late!

The idea is to get things back on track when problems arise.

To put it bluntly, Aldridge only gave a verbal warning and did not make any substantive action, but if he really had to take action, instead of saying it with his mouth, then the matter would be irreparable, and some players would definitely be sentenced to death.

Southgate sat in a chair in front of his closet, he lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "I will never win the Golden Globe in my life, although there are two nominations, and the total is only 8 votes." I don't get the Golden Boot, I don't get the best player in the league, all I can get is the medal when the team wins the championship at the end of the season, and I keep every single one of them in my family collection, and I hope to get more when I retire, and that's my honour and that's my career. Actually, I don't understand who the leader is talking about, maybe I, maybe one of you. ”

Someone spoke, the atmosphere finally improved, and it was the captain, not the coach, and everyone was at least mentally stable.

Southgate continued: 'I trust the chief, I trust him blindly, everything he says I think is right, for no other reason because he can make my career bigger and more brilliant than I ever dreamed of, and I think it's my luck, being his player, working with him, it's a blessing because there are so many players who are better than me, so I trust him blindly. Since he just said that, first, I think it's right, some of us are mentally slack, relaxed, and the desire to win has decreased, I don't know who it is, and I don't want to know, but if one day, I can feel this for the first time like the leader, then, guys, I'm sorry, I can't be in the same room with a teammate like that, I can't talk to him, I can't trust him, I can't fight with him anymore, because he's in my way, he's the enemy of my career, it's as simple as that, As the first captain under the leader, I was seven years, if I could, I would like to continue to do it for seven years, but I am 31 years old, Millwall did not have such a tradition before, no, I hope I can leave Millwall, in addition to contributing my own strength, there is also a tradition created as a captain, that is, the spirit of the wild lion, the spirit of always pursuing victory, not because of how many championships, or no championships, this is what I want to leave to Millwall, if anyone thinks differently from me, then, We are no longer brothers. ”

Southgate's words resonated with many players, among whom Nedved and Larsson were the most touched, the three of them are the oldest main players in the team, and only Pagliuca on the bench is older than them, and in fact, Pagliuca does not have a strong sense of belonging to Millwall, even if he has achieved glory here, but it is only a career achievement, and it does not mean that he can make this place his home.

Nedved patted Southgate on the shoulder, Southgate stood up and looked around at all his teammates, now the others with solemn expressions and a look of respect and determination in their eyes.

He said softly: "We never accuse each other, we are wild lions, united wild lions, we are strong, we are the strongest in the world!" To prove this, only on the field, I believe you, and please believe me, we will show the fighting spirit that the mad lion should have, and continue the mad lion dynasty all the time, always! ”

Southgate closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Millwall! ”

The whole team in the locker room shouted in unison with a majestic expression: "Rush and rush!" ”

"Millwall!"

"Rush Rush!"

"Millwall !!"

"Rush! Rush! Rush! (To be continued......)
