The three protagonists did not dare to look at Aldrich. The silent atmosphere in the conference room made many young players unbearable. They simply lowered their heads and closed their eyes as if waiting for beheading to be beheaded.
"You gave me a Christmas gift that I will never forget!"
Aldrich said coldly.
Ferdinand raised his head, still avoiding Aldrich's gaze, and said solemnly: "Boss, the truth is not what the newspapers said. In fact, it was not my idea, but a few of my friends."
At least Ferdinand's original intention of going to the nightclub was not to have a sex party.
These players received new contracts half a year ago, and their salaries have increased significantly. They are getting more money for their youth.
At this time of Christmas, friends also have time to hang out, so they all get together to go to nightclubs. At first they just drink some wine, dance and sing, but as more and more people come, they find that there are no women. The "good family" they know
"She wasn't pretty, so she found some pretty call girls. They were Ferdinand's friends who beheaded her first and then revealed her.
Ferdinand was not yet 20 years old, so he didn't want to lose face, so he just let it go.
Men are very sensitive when social activities involve women. Once they refuse, they will inevitably be laughed at or misunderstood.
Aldrich heard his explanation and sneered several times.
Friends, that’s right, which superstar fell by himself alone? Aren’t they surrounded by a group of friends?
"That's a damn funny reason. Gascoigne also has a lot of friends."
I have to say that at this time, Gascoigne is the most typical living example.
When Gascoigne became a national idol and landed in Italy, the BBC even sent a camera team to follow Gascoigne around the clock. Every detail of his week-long life was made into a program that was broadcast in England, and the ratings were not low.
, this is enough to prove Gascoigne’s fame and influence.
Gascoigne had a group of friends wherever he went, racing cars, drinking, having a lot of fun, playing all kinds of tricks, and even handcuffed himself to a chair. He spent the night in a hotel like a prisoner.
Can such a player, with such a life, take a break?
Even if you were given God’s gift, wouldn’t it have been squandered bit by bit?
Gascoigne, who scored the most exciting goal in the history of the European Championship in the 1996 European Cup, came to London a year later and a few months ago in the summer to challenge Mir as a guest with Glasgow Rangers.
Wall, it was just a friendly match, but it aroused the enthusiasm of the whole city.
It's a pity that in that friendly match, Gascoigne's performance was simply not worth mentioning. Millwall's players really wanted to have a good fight with Gascoigne, but the thirty-year-old Gascoigne gave
He feels like he is forty years old. At the very least, many thirty-year-old veterans in the Premier League are more threatening than him, let alone Cantona, who led Manchester United to win the championship at the age of thirty.
The players were disappointed after that game, both young players and those in their prime.
The entire audience sighed in their hearts after the game: Gascoigne, it's over.
This is the pain in the hearts of fans across the UK, and it is also a scar in the soul that they do not want to open.
Aldridge stared at Ferdinand indifferently and said in a deep voice: "Leo, if it was Henrik sitting in your position today, I would be very sad because he stopped after reaching the peak of personal honors as a player.
I will feel sorry for him, but today it is you, Frank, Danny, the three of you. I only have anger and disappointment in my heart. The anger is even heavier, because not only did you not
You set an example and led them astray. I am disappointed because you could have reached the heights of Henrik, but you seem to have no confidence in yourself and do not want to work hard for it. I never ask every player to become
Saint, but you must understand that life and career are closely related and influence each other. If your life is terrible, then of course it will affect your work."
"Boss, I..."
Ferdinand said hurriedly that he, Lampard and Mills were in the same mood, and they were all afraid that Aldridge would talk to them with such an indifferent expression, as if they were complete strangers to each other.
"Listen to me! We are all men. There is no need to be secretive. It is normal to like women, but I do not advocate playing with women for fun, especially when you want to do this, you also call your teammates
Yes, this has not only damaged your own image, but also dealt a heavy blow to the club's image. I will not allow this kind of thing!
Things have happened, your life is yours. Next time something like this happens, then please be prepared to take off your Millwall jersey. As for today's punishment, the three of you will be fined two weeks' salary and one will be transferred to the reserve team.
Month, month later, if the reserve team coach tells me that you are not performing well, then you will continue to stay there."
Aldrich then turned to look at the youth team players and said calmly: "Your punishment measures will be decided by Coach Nagy. I just want to give you a piece of advice: If you don't take this as a warning, then ten years later
,Twenty years later, don’t be envious when you see some of your former teammates becoming superstars and football legends.”
After saying that, Aldridge stood up and left, and then Nagy took away the other youth team members with a straight face.
As for the four players in the first team, Richard Wright is the third goalkeeper. He is a marginal role. It is too difficult for the goalkeeper to take up the position. His sense of crisis is not as good as that of Lampard, Ferdinand and Mills.
People are so strong.
The three of them looked completely lost.
After a romantic night, it's time to report to the reserve team.
In the past, they could not make the first-team roster, and then they would participate in games on reserve team match days to maintain their condition and improve their training, but they still trained with the first-team. Now, it is better, they have directly become the reserve team's permanent lineup.
Aldridge not only fined their salaries, but also prevented them from playing for the first team for a month. This also led to a reduction in their income in disguise, which was a double blow.
Originally, a person could play whatever he wanted, but Aldridge didn't bother to care. Even if he was playing a game of dragon and phoenix alone, it was only the player's personal behavior that was exposed to the outside world. Aldrich only regarded the player's personal performance on the court as the standard.
However, the collective behavior of multiple players will directly bring the club into the spotlight.
When Millwall visited Highbury at the pre-match press conference, no reporters asked questions about the game and all the blame was pointed at the Christmas party incident.
Those call girls later sold their personal experiences to the tabloids, and the overwhelming news reports were all news that had a negative impact on the Millwall club.
Such as what postures a certain player likes and what perverted hobbies he has, or some people are generous and others are so stingy that they don't even want to tip.
Aldridge seemed calm at the press conference, but in fact he was overwhelmed by reporters' pointed questions and felt a little embarrassed.
It's no big deal if a player is looking for a girl.
When a group of players behave like this, it is obvious that the finger will be directed at the head coach's management failure.
How has Aldridge, who has been awarded the best coach in the same league for three consecutive years, ever found himself in such an embarrassing situation?
Winner of the Triple Crown last season, winning the Champions League this season, and training a Mr. Ballon d’Or. How glorious is this?
But less than a week later, he was sitting on the stage and was bombarded with dirty questions by reporters.
What a fucking shame!
When a reporter asked: "Mr. Hall is about the same age as the players, why didn't he stop the players immediately? Are you hesitant about whether to participate in such a party? After all, your girlfriend is in the United States, and you should feel the same
Lonely?"
Aldrich's face was ruddy and his blood was surging.
Resisting the urge to get up and leave the table, this is simply a shame and humiliation!
Feeling a little sad in his heart, he could only remain serious and said in a deep voice: "I will not allow such incidents to happen under my management. Because this is not conducive to the career development of the players, the team's punishment measures have been issued. Ferdinand,
Mills and Lampard were transferred to the reserve team. When they return to the first team depends on their performance in the reserve team."
The reporters in the audience did not take it seriously, and someone continued to ask: "What if it happens again next time? Should it still be transferred to the reserve team? Maybe some players are tired and want to rest, so they can use this reason to go to the reserve team to relax.
For a while.”
Aldridge lowered his head and sneered, then raised his head and said sharply: "If something like this happens again next time, I don't care which player it is, whether it is the first time or the second time, Millwall will give up this player permanently.
players.”
"Oh, then things become simple. If a player wants to transfer, he only needs to hold a party and invite reporters to attend. This way, he will not become a traitor to Millwall and be sent away by the club on his own initiative.
Hahaha."
Aldrich was so crowded that he had nothing to say, and finally stood up and left the press conference. After entering the corridor, he asked Yiwen with a sullen face: "Where did those reporters come from just now?
"
"Most of them are tabloid newspapers."
"They are permanently disqualified from attending Millwall press conferences, mark my words, permanently!"
Aldrich had never been so embarrassed in public in his life.
Today's press conference was more lively than before, but reporters from major newspapers and professional reporters were all watching the show. Reporters from the Times and the Daily Mail did not even ask a single word.
They know that those tabloid reporters will jump out like clowns, and then they will get the news. Just let those clowns do the dirty things. There is no need for them to do things that offend Millwall so conspicuously.
With Aldridge's status, it is obvious that he will stay at Millwall for a long time, and there will be no need to make the relationship tense.
Several tabloids were on Millwall's official blacklist, permanently losing access to interviews.
The first team players also knew what happened on Christmas Day from the news.
They had no sympathy for Lampard, Ferdinand and Mills being sent to the reserve team.
Especially after seeing Aldridge being attacked, slandered, ridiculed, and ridiculed by tabloid reporters at the press conference, I couldn't forgive the three initiators.
Aldridge, who led them to win the glorious trophy, was humiliated by the stupid behavior of these players. Even Southgate in the locker room couldn't say a word for his local brothers. He couldn't speak, especially since he himself
These compatriots are outraged by their behavior.
On weekdays, they have many ways to relax. People like Southgate, Larsson, Shevchenko, Nedved and others will play golf or snooker together.
Even if you really can't live without women, can't you be like Makelele?
If you marry a beautiful daughter-in-law and hide her in a golden room at home, is it necessary to have fun outside?
Under the negative influence of this promiscuous party, Aldridge took Millwall, who was short of major players, to Highbury to challenge Arsenal, who were four points behind them in the standings.
Wenger is on the bed and waiting. He has been looking forward to this London derby for a long time. The war between the Arsenal and the Wild Lions. In the Wenger era and the Hall era, a truly equally matched competition at the same level has officially begun. (To be continued, please search.
