After the incident that fans called the "Lion King Stadium tragedy" occurred, most people thought that the controversy was all there was to it. However, they did not expect that Millwall would set off an explosive frenzy afterwards, shocking the entire European football world.
, after the most successful team in the Champions League withdrew from the European war, a group of contemporary top stars jointly announced that they would also withdraw from the European war, pushing this frenzy to an unprecedented level, which is truly shocking!
The FA can’t sit still!
The Chairman of the Football Association wants to interview Aldridge and advises Millwall to exercise restraint and calm down.~w.
Millwall is the flag of the Premier League, and in a sense it can also earn performance for the Football Association!
Even if there is a "Lion King Stadium tragedy", as long as we look forward and turn this page, next season, the next season, I believe there will be pressure from external public opinion, and the FA itself will also report to UEFA after the incident.
Protests were made to put pressure on UEFA, and everyone tacitly understood that UEFA would not dare to blackmail Millwall for the second time!
However, Millwall can't swallow this breath!
How could they be willing to be knocked down from the peak of their dynasty by forces other than football?
Platini had just returned to Nyon and thought that the matter had been properly resolved. As time went by and the incident faded away, everything would be back on track.
Unexpectedly, just after returning to UEFA headquarters, I heard the declaration from Millwall's top stars!
He did not contact Aldridge again: We have obviously agreed! Why do you regret it? What are your players doing? Are they rebelling?
He knew that when UEFA made substantial compensation, his secret meeting with Aldridge and what he had promised verbally did not matter. The key was action!
But unfortunately, UEFA cannot suddenly send the authentic Champions League trophy to Millwall at the cusp of this crisis. That would be self-inflicted and a disgrace.
The major sponsors of the Champions League are also unable to sit still!
They sent representatives one after another to put pressure on UEFA.
Millwall's withdrawal from the European competition will have a direct negative impact on the influence of the Champions League brand.
But Champions League sponsors have no idea of getting involved yet, because Millwall is a club, and a large part of the Champions League brand comes from the influence of stars!
This top stage brings together more than 95% of the top players of the current generation.
Millwall will not participate in the European competition, but when the transfer comes in the summer, maybe their stars will move one after another.
This is the most normal view.
Millwall's income will decrease, its finances will be under pressure, and it will be forced to sell its star players.
The stars themselves will also look for other options because of the appeal of the Champions League.
But things are different now. Millwall’s stars have announced their withdrawal from the Champions League!
This loss is immeasurable.
You can't imagine how many fans go to watch a football match, not to watch a team they support, nor to know the result of the match, just because there are Zidane, Figo, and Baker in that match.
Ronaldinho, Henry Nedved, Kaká, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Raul, etc.
Take Real Madrid as an example. Real Madrid is still Real Madrid, but after Florentino stepped down, the first phase of the Galacticos fell apart, Zidane retired, Figo moved to Serie A, Alien also moved to Serie A in the winter, and Beckham is about to leave.
After entering the major leagues, Real Madrid's brand value dropped rapidly during this period! It can be said that there was a different contrast with the aristocratic image of Florentino's period, and it became civilian.
This decline is because the outside world's attention to Real Madrid has dropped significantly. Since those fans who want to watch the stars can no longer see it, they may not stay in front of the TV or travel thousands of miles to the Bernabeu to watch an unforgettable game.
etc.
The same goes for the Champions League.
When there are no Ronaldinho, Nesta, Kaka, Henry and other superstars who can rely on one person to have great appeal on this stage, the impact on the brand value of the Champions League is immeasurable.
The player value system in European football is a pyramid. There are only so many top players. It does not mean that Kaka will not play in the Champions League. Then Juninho, who shines in the Champions League, can replace him. No, this does not eliminate anyone.
Or any possibility of replacing anyone, the existence and attraction of the superstar are independent.
UEFA assured sponsors that they would still see Millwall in the Champions League next season, which temporarily reassured sponsors.
When the weekend league comes, the Lion King Stadium is still crowded, and the stands today are spectacular.
Around the stands, fans showed the world a word.
"No one likes us, it doesn't matter!"
The club took a strong stance to accuse UEFA, and even called the police claiming that it was a man-made match-fixing!
It caused an uproar in contemporary football.
The fans stood firmly with the team at this moment.
Although some fan organizations also protested against Aldridge's unilateral announcement of the club's withdrawal from the European competition, there was quite a bit of criticism about this.
Aldridge was originally worried about whether the team would be depressed after being eliminated from the Champions League and its fighting spirit would drop significantly.
But in this league, Millwall players turned their grief and anger into motivation and demonstrated their proper kingly temperament.
Messi is still recuperating from his injuries, Cristiano Ronaldo has a minor injury and was put on the bench, and Schneider has just undergone surgery and is in bed to recuperate.
However, Millwall relied on Kaka and Villa's double hat-tricks at home to slaughter visiting Blackburn 6:0!
When Kaka scored the first goal, he jogged to the sidelines and took the initiative to hug Aldridge. The team's general unity at this time was unspoken.
Villa did the same, and showed the words written on the front of his vest after scoring: At this moment, we are together!
While Millwall achieved great success in the league, there was also bad news revealed by Fleet Street.
For example, Kaka had a fierce verbal conflict with his father. Kaka's father was very dissatisfied with Kaka's signing of the "Crazy Lion Declaration"!
As for his son who may not be able to appear on the top stage in Europe in the future, Kaka's father believes that Kaka's Lions journey has come to an end. Since Kaka cannot be given the best here, Kaka should transfer and leave. Other clubs
.There are not a few people who are willing to give Kaka the highest treatment. The core soul of a team!
But Kaka did not obey his father, so the two had a verbal conflict.
There is also Messi who is recovering from injury. The news is that Messi has decided to terminate his agent contract with Andrew Hall and will let his father serve as his agent. And his father is actively contacting the two major Spanish companies.
A wealthy family hopes to promote their son.
Those who did not sign the "Crazy Lions Manifesto" include Buffon and Cristiano Ronaldo Ramos.
Ramos has just become the main player and his attitude is unclear. This is normal. After all, he has just entered the top level in his career and cannot play in the Champions League. It is too difficult for him to accept. But will he ask Millwall?
The application to transfer and leave has been submitted, but it is currently unknown.
It's understandable that Buffon didn't sign. This was his first year at Millwall. Although he won the Ballon d'Or with the help of Millwall's huge influence, he has yet to win it in his career.
Having been to the Champions League, I must have missed the Champions League.
The most important thing is Cristiano Ronaldo. Cristiano Ronaldo did not sign and looked very calm. However, the calmness of being placed on the bench in the league made people wonder what he was thinking. It seemed that he had already interacted with this team.
The team is a bit out of place, or seems to be incompatible with each other.
For players like Ronaldinho who have made a declaration, other wealthy clubs want to poach and attack them. They are afraid that these players will stubbornly refuse to represent the team in the European war. Even if they spend a lot of money to buy them, the gains will outweigh the losses! The price is too high!
But among the three of Ronaldo, Messi and Ramos, European giants began to compete.
Due to Buffon's age and the position of goalkeeper, other giants either have stable candidates, or Buffon's worth and salary are too high, so there are very few people interested.
Ramos wanted to make a difference at Millwall, and he had successfully risen to the top this season, but a sudden incident caught him off guard.
But at this moment, he was a little timid and didn't dare to be the first person!
Yes, most of his teammates stay with the team and support the club. If he is the first to leave, no matter how he does it, he will be called a traitor.
So even though he didn't sign, he still made up his mind to wait and see.
If other superstars "escaped" first, he might be able to follow behind and find another way out with an inconspicuous role.
The final focus centered on Messi and Ronaldo.
Aldridge's wishful thinking is that Ronaldo and Messi will take the initiative to stand up. It doesn't matter if they don't sign, but they must at least announce their firm stance of staying on the team!
They were brought to Millwall by Aldridge before they were 12 years old!
Not only Aldrich, but also many staff around him watched them grow up bit by bit day by day, year by year!
However, to Aldrich's dismay, both of them tacitly remained silent.
Let the outside world transfer rumors about them become more and more intense.
Real Madrid's new president Calderon invited Capello back, but Capello has been criticized by fans during his coaching this season, just like the first time he coached Real Madrid, it was almost the same!
Back then, his Real Madrid and Barcelona were at odds with each other in the league, and they are still the same now.
Real Madrid fans' criticism of Capello is still the same: they hate defensive football!
Under such controversy, Capello also had conflicts with the stars in the team. Calderon knew that he could not rely on Capello for his future, even though Capello might be able to bring a championship trophy to Real Madrid at the end of the season.
Therefore, when launching a new phase of construction, Calderon went against his own campaign platform. He was to resist Florentino's superstar policy, but now, he wants to introduce superstars to restore fans' confidence and relieve internal pressure.
He set this target on Ronaldo.
Another Spanish giant has a strong interest in Messi because Messi's father came to recommend him. Especially Messi's explosion this season makes them believe that such a technical player is very consistent with Barcelona's team building strategy.
Cristiano Ronaldo goes to Real Madrid, Messi goes to Barcelona.
This is a topic that has been discussed in European football for more than a month. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
