After scoring the goal, Millwall played more calmly.
Aldridge stood up and came to the sidelines several times in this game to give instructions to Pirlo, and the instructions given to him were all tactical changes.
Pirlo is creative and has a global vision, but he still lacks in rhythm control and offensive adjustment.
To play an organization role in his position, passing is only a basic skill. There are many players who can pass short and long passes accurately, but it is difficult to become a great player just by knowing how to pass. The deeper hidden qualities are ordinary players and outstanding players, and even the world's top players.
The gap between level players is reflected.
Pirlo, who has been promoted to the main position this season, is naturally very grateful to the young coach, but in this game, Aldridge made several suggestions and he was completely impressed!
How to attack in the east and west in the attack, how to use the pressure of the deep offensive to cover the back players, how to make the opponent return in vain when the opponent counterattacks fiercely...
Just looking at Pirlo's style of play on the court, he still looks unhurried, but he provides Millwall with frontcourt fire support in a leisurely manner, making Millwall's offense stronger and stronger.
"Martin, Hall is carefully cultivating that Italian boy. At the beginning of the season, I said that Hall is taking a risk by using this Italian, because his football is not gorgeous, and his defense is also worrying, especially because he is not fast.
Apart from his good basic passing skills, I don't see any special qualities in him. However, during Millwall's crazy winning streak during this period, this Italian guy
He grew up quickly, you see. Pirlo still plays at the same pace today. I thought he would lose his magic after being familiar with his opponents. But through Hall constantly communicating with him on the sidelines, he seemed to regard this game as training.
, Pirlo enriched Millwall's offense. It is no exaggeration to say that Pirlo directed Millwall's offense, but Chelsea could only be passively beaten."
"I agree with your point of view. He makes Millwall's offense more confusing, turning left, right, forward and back. But what I care more about is that if he is in other teams, he may not be able to perform like this.
Strength, it can be clearly seen that Millwall's players have a good understanding of each other, and they can play overall smooth football. There is no doubt about their personal ability. Oh, Chelsea counterattacked, Leboeuf cleared the ball, and Di Matteo took the ball
Turned around and brought some
Step, wrong step! Nedvěd immediately poked the ball away from behind, and the ball returned to Pirlo's feet. Long pass! There was no defensive player around Trezeguet. He took a step with the ball laterally. Is it a shot?
Clever pass to the ribs of the penalty area, Larsson! Right-footed shot! The ball went in! Four to zero! Millwall scored another goal in the 85th minute of the second half, and they completely destroyed Chelsea. Larsson scored
Secondly, how many goals has he scored this year?"
"We only count the league. From January to today this year, he has scored 34 goals. Including cup matches, it is a terrifying 41 goals!"
Aldridge applauded on the sidelines, gave a thumbs up to the court, and then returned to the coaching bench and sat down.
The fans in the Stamford Bridge stands began to leave. They originally thought it would be a wonderful match, but Chelsea was obviously not on the same level as Millwall.
Their forwards were mediocre, Di Matteo also lost his previous magic, and they even had only 4 shots on goal.
Millwall's football has absolute dominance on the field.
After defeating Stamford Bridge 4-0, Aldridge continued to perform his strong performance as the dominant player in the London Civil War.
After the game, he hurriedly shook hands with Gullit and turned around to leave. Aldridge seemed relatively calm during the interview, with a rather non-arrogant temperament.
Millwall's 15-game winning streak not only shocked the whole of England, but also attracted the attention of the European continent!
The Times headline the next day read: "Millwall: Winning streak in five major leagues!"
The most terrifying winning streak in Europe is Benfica's 29-game winning streak set 25 years ago.
But in the five major leagues, the current record holder is Real Madrid, and that record was already 35 years ago, with the same 15 consecutive wins.
For the entire European continent, the little-known Millwall created a 15-game winning streak in the Premier League and tied with Real Madrid, which immediately attracted widespread attention.
After the six-goal bloodbath against Manchester United, all the first-tier clubs in the mainstream leagues had sent scouts to inspect Millwall's players on site.
Why?
Because Millwall sounds like a club that is a springboard for stars.
With Ajax being poached quickly and several stars being taken away for free in the summer, now is a crazy period for major wealthy clubs to grab players.
In order to deal with the chaos in the transfer market caused by the Bosman Rule, FIFA has also begun to formulate new transfer rules, especially transfer transactions between clubs from different countries.
Millwall is steadily terrible. After adapting to the Premier League in the new season, Aldridge's players' psychological quality has been strengthened, and his ability to withstand pressure in big scenes has also been improved.
"Who's going to stop Millwall?"
The Star is calling on Premier League teams to end Millwall's winning streak, otherwise the Premier League may end in January.
When Tottenham returned to North London with a painful 1:4 score at the Lion's Den Stadium, the media across the UK exclaimed: A new winning streak record in the five major leagues was born.
16 consecutive wins!
Aldrich cheered for his players, but before he could be happy, new troubles appeared in front of him.
"AC Milan wants to take Nedved and Larsson away!"
"Inter Milan is interested in Larsson!"
"Juventus..."
The top three in northern Italy are all interested in Millwall players, and an invitation letter from AC Milan to the players broke out from the city of Milan.
Moratti, who had just taken over Inter Milan last year, was very sincere. After learning that Aldridge spoke Italian, he directly inquired about the player's transfer possibility over the phone.
Moratti wanted too many people, and he even wanted to take away Millwall's front four.
Because he is eager to revive Inter Milan, especially after seeing the collapse of the dynasty of cross-city rival AC Milan this season.
Money is not the focus of negotiations.
The price Moratti even offered directly was extremely sincere.
But Aldrich chatted with him for a long time and said he would not sell any players.
As for AC Milan, they were not so polite.
Before the start of the League Cup in midweek, Aldridge was repeatedly mentioned at the press conference about player transfer news. He was a little impatient, so when reporters waited for the questions one by one and he didn't say a word, everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
Looking at him, Aldrich spoke slowly and expressionlessly.
"A year and a half ago, I remember the Italian media was laughing at Millwall. I recommended Italian players in the team to the youth echelon of the Italian national team. This is not my obligation, but I do it for the Italian national team.
I focus on cultivating players. I also hope that my players can wear the national team jersey with honor, even if they are in the U18 echelon. However, the Italian media was sarcastic. I still remember the news at that time: Where is Millwall from? Now,
Some of their clubs want my players,
Do you think we are beggars? They offered us olive branches through the media, without even faxing the inquiry to the club. Yes, I am talking about AC Milan. You have glory, you have countless championships, and you are a noble and prominent club in the football circle.
We are here at Millwall
Although we are a small village with a humble background, we have character and backbone! Do you think that if you throw a bone or two on the ground, my players will run over to pick it up like dogs and then wag their tails and beg for mercy from you? Haha, our small village has
The answer is one word: no."
The audience was in an uproar, and the camera lights flashed. Aldrich stood up and left with a cold face.
Every line has its own rules.
The head of Inter Milan personally called to discuss privately. Although Juventus's Moggi contacted Andrew secretly, he still sent a symbolic fax to inquire. Only AC Milan had nothing to say, so they directly made nonsense through the media.
Nedved, Larsson and other players should go to San Siro to play, that is the highest honor for a player.
Other teams, including Real Madrid and Bayern, have also inquired about the transfer possibilities of several players, but everyone has followed the rules.
Maybe the Milan dynasty has given AC Milan too much sense of superiority, or maybe Millwall is looked down upon by others, but Aldridge can't accept it. He doesn't care what the outside world thinks. If he doesn't play this game according to the rules, we have nothing in common.
Language, he is the owner and coach of Millwall, and he deeply understands that dignity is more important than money!
AC Milan Vice Chairman Galliani made a mistake. He also specialized in Thuram's transfer to Parma in the summer. It is not difficult to understand some behind-the-scenes operations in the Italian circle. He knew that Thuram wanted to transfer.
His personal wishes were approved by the club, but the price was a bit high. Galliani, who always wanted to spend a small amount of money to do big things, naturally could not accept a too high offer. Therefore, he wanted to seduce the players first and let the players' personal will influence the club's decision-making.
.
Who knows that now is the era after Bosman's Law, and players' voice in transfers has skyrocketed!
But he regretted it now. He didn't expect that this young man, Aldrich, was a fool. Yes, in his eyes, he felt that Aldrich acted impulsively and offended wealthy families as soon as he opened his mouth. It is not easy for such a person to get along in this circle.
However, he himself was not honest in doing things, so he had to use relationships in private to ease the relationship with Millwall.
He really wants Millwall players.
AC Milan, which was the Serie A champion last year, was a disaster in the new season. At the time, people were talking about their operations in the summer transfer market as wonderful, but after half a season, let’s comment on Galliani’s transfer in the summer.
Will Work, Dugarry, Davis, Reiziger
, Blomqvist, etc., overall it cannot be described as unsatisfactory. Just looking at Milan's poor record and player transcripts, you can tell that there is almost no one that Milan fans can praise as a good deal, and most of these players are also
They are all destined to become passers-by in Milan.
Galliani is trying his best to restore his relationship with Millwall and still has illusions about the winter transfer window.
After Aldridge left the field with a cold face at the press conference, Millwall lost in the Carabao Cup the next day.
It's not that Millwall didn't perform well, the substitutes' training was more important than their performance.
And Aldridge met an excellent head coaching opponent: Martin O'Neal.
The Leicester City he led was a newly promoted team. After adapting to the rhythm of the Premier League, the newly promoted team performed better and better in the league. Martin O'Neill studied under Brian Clough and began to be conservative after becoming familiar with the Premier League.
It is a defensive counterattack, and in the counterattack, it does not continue the British long pass, but passes the ball on the ground to attack the side. It is simple and practical, and the efficiency is good.
He originally coached a small team, and the players were of that level, so there was nothing wrong with being more conservative. Aldrich sent in a substitute, and it didn't feel like a pity to fall to the quarterfinals of the League Cup.
After the game, he and O'Neill sat together and had a good chat. However, O'Neill also wanted to rent Millwall players instead of buying them.
If he wants to rent a player with speed like Grenchar, he will definitely be able to hit him accurately on counterattacks.
But Aldrich declined politely. He still hoped that the players could grow up in his own tactical system. Moreover, there would be a lot of games this season, and the substitute players would not be able to play in at least 20 games.
