The match between the Lions and the Red Army has come to an end, and Millwall's advantage over Manchester United in the standings has expanded to 20 points.
Ferguson's team began to recover after getting rid of the impact of the European war after the first half. However, too many draws and losing streaks in the first half, coupled with the defeat in direct dialogue with Millwall, made the Red Devils chase the leader.
Sheep feels quite powerless on his journey.
The old Scottish man also said in front of the media that Manchester United's road to defending the title was over, and congratulated Millwall in advance for winning the league championship.
His remarks pushed Millwall to a higher position and completely became the target of public criticism in the Premier League.
In fact, it is flattering and killing.
On the one hand, it makes Millwall players start to feel happy, on the other hand, it hints to other teams that the opponent you are facing is the champion, so come up with some skills to give the champion a headache.
Aldridge didn't care about this. Ten thousand reporters asked him, and his answer was the same: As long as Manchester United performs stably and well, Manchester United will still be the favorite to win the championship.
As the sun set, Aldrich drove home and passed by the supermarket to purchase a lot of ingredients. After returning home and driving the car into the garage, he took out the shopping bag and prepared to take out the keys and open the door.
Didi
There was the sound of a trumpet from behind, and he looked back and couldn't help but laugh.
I saw Ronaldinho wearing a somewhat stylish black jacket, tight jeans, and a motorcycle helmet. At this time, he pulled up the helmet visor and gave Aldridge a cool thumbs up.
Shouted to him in fluent English: "Boss, today is great!"
"Mr. Hall, come on. Can you give me an autograph another day?"
There was an older girl sitting behind the motorcycle holding Ronaldinho's waist. She also said hello to Aldridge.
Aldrich said dumbfounded: "It's almost dark, what are you doing?"
Ronaldinho said: "Let's go out to eat to celebrate our win against Liverpool. Boss, are you coming?"
Aldrich felt strange.
You are just a player in the youth team and have not played a game for Millwall's first team yet. We beat Liverpool and you went to celebrate?
He waved his hand and said, "No, you go ahead. Go home early in the evening and don't drink."
"Don't worry, boss, I will definitely be back in the evening."
After saying that, Ronaldinho put down his helmet visor, drove his motorcycle and waved goodbye to Aldridge.
Aldrich raised his eyebrows and sighed helplessly, opened the door and walked in.
Ronaldinho is much stronger than when he came last year. This is due to the training mechanism of Millwall system. At the same time, he also worked hard to learn English, which he showed from the first day he came here.
I have a strong desire to integrate into the environment and adapt to the life here extremely quickly.
He can't do it without learning English. When we had dinner at Aldridge's house two months ago, Ronaldinho openly admitted: If you don't learn English, picking up girls will be a big problem!
The girl sitting behind his car just now is a college student he just picked up. Listening to the story Ronaldinho told before, the girl is a fan and Ronaldinho is the star of the youth team. They hit it off immediately.
In this regard, Aldridge didn't say anything. He just told Ronaldinho not to delay training. Ronaldinho still understood that his future must be guaranteed by playing football, so he guaranteed it with a professional attitude.
Originally, he was sixteen years old. In the UK, he was considered an adult. It was normal for him to have a girlfriend when he was young. Moreover, Aldrich was also happy to see his players have a stable partner instead of playing around in the flowers with his eyes open every day.
Which girl is more beautiful when you look at it? That's the question.
As long as it does not affect his job and the image of the players and the club, Aldridge has no interest in getting involved in the players' private lives.
However, as the coach, he hopes that the players can form stable families as soon as possible, which will help men grow up, become more responsible, and be able to focus more on their careers instead of chasing beauty and beauty.
Players like Nedvěd, Larsson, Southgate, Schneider and other players are this type of players. They get married early, and some have children. This allows them to focus more on their careers, and their strong sense of family responsibility also makes them
Stay away from excessive social interaction.
After making dinner at home, Aldrich took a bath early and then went into the study to continue working.
Recently, he is compiling a training philosophy text. He wants to sort out Millwall's training system and youth training ideas so that the club can have a clear understanding from top to bottom.
The assessment of coaches in Europe is very strict, but even so, the level of coaches is still uneven, the ideas are inconsistent, and everyone has their own opinions and ideas. Therefore, Millwall attaches great importance to youth training and must ensure that all levels of youth training
The training philosophy is unified from the beginning of the echelon to create consistency in the work of coaching players.
This is true for many teams with well-known youth training, such as Ajax, and this is also one of the embodiments of the advanced youth training system in Europe. It does not rely on the experience of coaches to teach players. Therefore, many have never played football or have not achieved professional success.
High coaches can be successful, but many players are very
Many brilliant stars have failed miserably after becoming coaches. Most of the reason is that they rely on their playing experience to coach the team, not to talk about management, but their tactical thinking is out of touch with the times, and also because of the deep-rooted "player success experience" that makes
They can't change much.
In general, the idea of Millwall's youth training is to practice more tactics and techniques when you are young, and the proportion of physical training is more important when you are young. Because players are over 23 years old, the technical aspects are basically finalized. Some technical movements, 23
If you can't do it freely at 2 years old, you don't expect much improvement in future training, and at 2 years old
Around the age of 3, the proportion of strengthening physical training will gradually increase. Many talented technical players have a short peak period. A big factor is that they underestimate physical strengthening. Most of them are overconfident and obsessed with their own skills. Therefore,
As a result, the body suffers during more intense confrontations, making oneself more vulnerable to injury.
What's more, technical movements are based on physical fitness. Even the most common emergency stops and turns require not only the flexibility and flexibility of the body, but also the body's endurance. If the physical fitness is not strong, a sudden turn will cause trouble.
The bad thing is that he sprains himself and ends up with it.
The next day, the main players of the first team are on vacation, and other players have returned to the training ground to train. Some players who have been on vacation will also train themselves. For example, the shameless Schneider was exposed in the game yesterday, and he deliberately returned to the team.
Meulensteen was found in the meeting, and the two watched the game video repeatedly in the conference room. Every time Schneider was blown away by McManaman, Meulensteen would take it out and explain to him the mistakes he had made.
This is purely a question of defensive technical ability, in terms of speed. Schneider is not inferior to McManaman at all, and he is not inferior in terms of physical strength. Therefore, it is still a matter of technical aspects and defensive experience.
Aldrich went to the youth team to discuss youth team development plans with Nagy.
He plans to continue to expand the youth team in the summer, including lower age groups.
"But the number of coaches is obviously not enough."
Although Nagy agreed with Aldrich's plan, Rome was not built in a day.
"A very practical problem is that I need to explain the team's tactical ideas to the original youth team coaches one by one. Although we try to let the young players not be restrained on the court, in the dynamic team tactics, they
We still need to follow tactical routines. Now we have to hire a coach, and then we have to let the coach learn our training policies first. This cannot be done overnight."
Aldridge also understands Najib's difficulty. Standing in the office of the youth training base. In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, his position can overlook several training fields outside. There are almost six teams training on the field, and there are already divided
Different age groups, but because the team's recruitment threshold was low in the past, among the 70 or 80 young players, the blood that can bring blood to the first team is only the few that Aldrich focused on introducing, and the rest are studying with the prince.
.
"How many people will leave here in the summer?"
Aldrich asked calmly without looking back.
In the youth team, except for Villa, two Coles, Ronaldinho and other players whose contracts were personally followed up by Aldridge, everyone else signed a one-year contract. Every summer, when the age reaches the decision-making stage.
Many players will leave the team, either to look for opportunities elsewhere or to leave the football world.
Nagy picked up a youth team member information on the table, opened the file and flipped through it. After calculation, he said: "There are nine players whose contracts will not be renewed in the summer."
"How old are they?"
"The youngest is 17 years old and the oldest is 20 years old."
"Offer them a new contract and become coaches. If they are willing to stay, the club can train them and learn while working."
Najib's eyes lit up and he praised: "This is a good idea!"
This can save a lot of trouble, because with the training these players received at Millwall, they can better understand the team's training system and philosophy, and can achieve seamless connection. They only need to enhance their professional knowledge before they can get jobs.
And they are not allowed to be head coaches. The threshold for team coaching qualifications is relatively high. In England, it is basically impossible within three to five years. Aldridge has taken various exams and stepped up one level at a time.
Four and a half years.
Of course, ordinary coaches also need professional qualifications, but the FA is not so strict in managing this kind of thing. But this affects the team's brand, whether you use a group of non-professionals to train players or professionals.
, this will directly affect whether young players are willing to sign up at your youth training base.
If there is a coach who wants to enter the first team, he must first obtain a higher-level professional certificate. People like Jenson, Craig, Benitez, etc. have all passed various professional rating assessments in the past.
.
"Isn't the team building a new stadium? Are you going to expand the youth training base in the summer? I think the first team lineup is a bit thin, especially the forwards. If Larsson and Shevchenko are injured at the same time, you can even take two substitutes.
Not coming out."
Najib's words made Aldrich look grim. He shook his head and said: "But we can't compete with the rich. The competition in the transfer market will become more and more intense, because now is the stage of the growth of the football bubble. We can fight when we come."
Stars, not to mention wealthy, first-tier
Clubs are also eyeing them, so we can only grab some good talents and semi-finished products. The most important thing is that I hope Millwall will set up a youth training brand. In the future, not only will we search for talents, but there will also be a steady stream of talents coming here.
.”
Najib came to Aldridge and looked down at the sweaty young players on the training ground with him. He said with a smile: "Although this road is dangerous, I agree with you to persist like this. It is this that will make you happy."
Our success shines brighter.”
Aldrich nodded, his eyes becoming sharper.
This summer, there will be a huge leap in financial revenue. He will start a new round of expansion and make Millwall the "cradle of superstars" that will be remembered in history!
