Aldridge tried to analyze Juventus' arrangements for the second round from Lippi's perspective.
But in terms of tactics, it is hard to say that there are any clever tricks in this level of competition. It is very risky to rashly change the team's mature technical and tactical play. Juventus's situation is that there is no need to take risks.
Trailing by the total score, Juventus will attack, that's for sure, but how to attack and when to exert force, there are a lot of things to do here.
Is it to control the game and accumulate advantages bit by bit, or to directly bombard them like a sudden storm?
Aldrich thought about it and almost went crazy.
Before any important game, he has such a thought process.
Moreover, when playing against Juventus, Millwall did not just rely on Aldridge's imagination. During the pre-war preparations and team training matches, he would arrange for the substitutes to exclude Juventus's technical and tactical formations to compete with the home team.
In the competition, in order to make up for the difference in strength, the main lineup will be appropriately reduced in order to defeat more with less.
Although this is not an absolutely appropriate drill, it cannot be said to be useless.
The Hungarian Golden Team was the strongest in history. Under the background of a national system, all domestic teams served as a foil for one team. What were the roles and tasks of these students who accompanied the prince to study? They were to act as different opponents.
In order to compete with England, Hungary even specially selected players with similar technical and tactical characteristics to England to form a team. They completely copied England's tactics and trained with the national team from dawn to dusk. It is no wonder that England was beaten by Hungary both home and away.
, at least there was no secret in tactics. It was completely understood by the opponent.
When he decided to end the brainstorming, the video on TV had not finished playing.
Yi Wen was fascinated by what she saw, and her quiet look had a unique charm. Suddenly, Aldrich saw that her eyes were misty. She coughed twice and said, "To be honest, I can't stand you crying here."
Yiwen blinked her tears away, tilted her head and smiled: "I just remembered some past events."
"Oh? You weren't moved by the plot of the movie?"
"That's right, that line, if you dance, I will dance too. Haha. It's very similar to when we were children. When we go to play, you go, and I go too. When we fight, you go in. I go in, too. We do everything together.
"
Aldrich turned his head and looked at the TV. Sure enough, the plot had developed to the point where Jack and Rose jumped off the ship.
He held his head and smiled: "Yeah, we were together a lot when we were kids, but later on, probably when you were in middle school. I would only play with you again every few months. I heard Brady say, then
When you were rarely together, you seemed to have realized the difference between men and women, hahaha, it’s funny to think about it.”
Yiwen's expression was soft, he raised his chin and looked at the ceiling, and said softly: "Yes, at that time we went to school step by step, but you left London to pursue your dreams alone. Aldrich, why is this? We are obviously together.
I am a grown up child, but you are different. From the age of 10, you have grown up overnight. At that time, we thought you were a reliable partner. Now that I think about it, your story can be used to make movies or
The legend has come out."
Aldridge laughed when he heard this: "Not to mention, Andrew told me that a small film company in London really wanted to make a movie with me. He described me as the person who made Millwall rise in England. He has been working hard since he was 10 years old. Hall
The family purchased the club, and I became the head coach. I condensed the club's history over the past three years. Haha, I refused. It felt too exaggerated and seemed to be just trying to gain fame."
The corners of Yiwen's mouth raised, and her smile was intoxicatingly sweet. She suddenly changed the topic and asked softly: "How are you and Melanie?"
"It's okay, I'm very busy myself. She is touring the world with the Spice Girls this year. She often sends text messages to talk about the performance. It seems that they are very popular and the tickets for the concert are always sold out, haha."
"Why do you like her?"
"I don't know. I'm not the kind of man who suddenly sees a woman and falls in love at first sight. How should I put it? Maybe at a specific time, I had a feeling and wanted to continue to get this special feeling, so I tried to develop.
Then everything fell into place."
"Why don't you like me?"
When Yiwen asked this question, Aldrich was obviously taken aback, and then found that Yiwen turned to stare at him, his eyes a little complicated, but his expression was still gentle.
Aldrich looked away and said calmly: "Who said that? Why don't I like you?"
"Aldrich, you know what I mean."
Aldrich's heartbeat suddenly became a little faster, which was a sign of nervousness, which surprised him.
Why be nervous?
He put away his smile and remained silent.
Don't know how to answer this question.
Seeing his reaction, Yiwen said softly: "Aldrich, this problem has been bothering me for three years. I don't know, I really don't know. I'm prettier than her, have a better figure than her, and know you better than she does. I know.
What kind of clothes do you like to wear, what kind of food do you like to eat, and all the lifestyle habits, how am I worse than her? Fame, or she is richer. But I know that this is not the standard, otherwise, you would not be Aldrich.
"
Aldrich said incredulously: "We know each other so well, we have known each other since childhood. Because of this, why would you ask me such a question? Brady, Fred, Saul, these our common friends, I don't think
I am special than them, and the time you spend with them will definitely be longer than the time you spend with me."
Yiwen said with a slightly excited tone: "No, you are very special. You have been special since you were a child. No matter what you do, you have a plan, are organized, and will not make mistakes. Even if we make mistakes, you will use the most correct way."
Help us make up for it. When we panic, you are the calmest. When we encounter difficulties, you will never
We are helpless. You are not the oldest among us, but you are the gentlest and most considerate one to us, allowing us to rely on and be unscrupulous without worries when we are with you. Aldrich, you are not a romantic man,
But you are the man I feel I can rely on and trust the most."
"Why do you have to find someone to rely on? Aren't you very good now? An independent strong woman. Why do you have to rely on a man?"
"I don't mean to rely on you in life, but in spirit! Answer me, no matter what happens to me, will you be by my side to help me? Accompany me through all difficulties?"
Aldrich said resolutely: "Of course!"
Yi Wen said with a serious face: "This is what a woman needs to rely on and trust, not money or material things."
Aldrich asked, "You don't think I can do that now?"
"No. You still do."
"So what's the problem?"
"The thing is, you can do this as a friend, but I want more! I don't want to be just your friend! I want more stories with you."
Aldrich looked up at the ceiling. He always helped his friends when they were in trouble, but this kind of friendship seemed to be very delicate between a man and a woman.
Man. Woman, man, woman.
Aldrich suddenly realized a problem: it seemed that before Yiwen asked the question that broke the window paper, he had never regarded Yiwen as an independent woman.
Yes, more than ten years ago, underneath his childlike appearance, he was an old man in his late forties.
When he first met that lively and lovely girl, he treated other friends and even his two brothers with the mentality of an elder looking after children. He also had this mentality.
Therefore, when he is with his friends, he is always a caregiver. He cares about them and gives them more consideration, tolerance, care and help than a child should have.
This is why he is a trustworthy and reliable partner in the hearts of his friends.
Even in the past ten years, as his friends have grown from children to adults, Aldrich's mentality has not changed. It's just that he is young and has never been so free and unrestrained in his previous life. He can play whenever he wants, eat, drink and have fun with his friends.
Indulging in restraint together allows him to experience the superiority of youth and the youthful vitality brought by this body.
Even Yiwen, who turned eighteen and became a beautiful woman, still remained in the impression of a junior in his eyes.
Today, he realized: that lively and cute little girl has turned into a pretty girl with feminine charm.
Aldrich hasn't changed, but Ivan has.
When Aldrich came back from his thoughts, Ivan was gone and the video on TV had come to an end.
The aging heroine sank the heart of the ocean to the bottom of the sea, and met Jack again in her sleep...
Aldrich turned off the TV and went back to his room to turn off the lights and go to sleep.
Yiwen just expressed his emotions without asking for anything further.
Since she knows Aldrich, she should understand that Aldrich never likes to be coerced by others, even if they are friends.
If she is aggressive, it will only be counterproductive.
Of course, she has the right to express herself. She doesn't know how it will develop next, and neither does Aldrich.
To be honest, Aldridge has been confessed countless times.
When signing autographs for fans at the Lion's Den, he would sometimes encounter crazy female fans who would show their love to him at close range. Most of the time, Aldridge would just smile and say nothing. Occasionally, a little girl under the age of ten would say something to him.
:I love you. Aldrich will reply generously: I love you too!
Every week, his home mailbox would receive many confession letters from strange female fans. He originally had a fan organization similar to that of entertainment stars, and most of them were organized by female fans.
For this kind of stranger who has never been masked and only has photos, Aldrich's response is simple. Send all the letters into the shredder, and the photos are no exception, no matter how beautiful the women in the photos are.
But facing someone as familiar as Yiwen, Aldrich really found it difficult.
In the days that followed, Aldrich avoided Yiwen intentionally or unintentionally, but they all worked together and occasionally met each other. He tried to stay as normal as possible and ended the affairs between the two of them on the same occasion as quickly as possible.
Soon, Yiwen couldn't stand it anymore.
She broke into Aldrich's office, closed the door, and uttered a curse with a straight face.
"Aldrich, I don't care what you think, but I want to tell you that no matter when and where you need me, I will be by your side! That's right, you have a girlfriend now, I won't
I’m harassing you and making things difficult for you, so don’t avoid me on purpose. Just keep going as usual. Besides, I don’t think highly of you and me at all.
Melanie's future is not optimistic from the beginning. She will get further and further away from your life. One day you will not be able to bear the life of not seeing your girlfriend for more than ten months a year. At that time, you
You will know that a woman like me by your side is real. I wish you happiness, but allow me to curse you in my heart to break up with her quickly!"
Aldrich's eyes widened and he said, "What a woman!"
Yiwen turned around and walked away, while turning his back and raising a middle finger towards him...
