While preparing for the midweek league, Millwall received good news: the club's historical transfer signing Henry returned to the team to participate in training!
He has been recuperating since his transfer in the summer. He did not spend time in the stands during the Millwall game. Aldridge asked him to sit on the bench with the team and gave him the task of reading the game and observing Millwall.
Team cooperation, especially the offensive routine in the forward link.
Wenger can allow Henry to complete the transformation from winger to center in two months. Aldrich does not have high demands on himself. As long as Henry can make a perfect transformation this season, Millwall's striker power next season will be no less than that of the 1998 Champions League final.
At that time, the striker combination was evaluated as the "Diamond Trident" by the media.
Henry is only doing simple restorative training, which is not high-intensity. When he is resting, Aldrich will let him stand on the sidelines to watch the team's offensive and defensive confrontation, especially letting him observe Klose's movement and role on the front line.
Performance.
Comparing Klose with the two centers currently playing in Ruud van Nistelrooy's team, Klose is more in line with Aldridge's tactical requirements because he has a better ability to play for his teammates and can cover hidden attack points on the wings and behind.
, and Van Nistelrooy is an excellent center in the traditional impression. He needs his teammates to provide him with fire support. He is a killer who solves problems.
Aldridge knows what Henry's abilities can achieve, so he hopes that Henry can not only score goals himself, but also activate the entire team's offensive line.
The gunner who faced the goalkeeper alone at Highbury but consciously passed the ball to his teammates and multiplied his scoring probability was the core of the unity of that gorgeous Arsenal team in history.
Henry was very serious in training. Especially when Aldrich talked to him in person, he not only took notes, but also thought about it. Occasionally he would ask questions, and Aldrich would answer them in detail. After training, Jenson
I compiled some videos for Henry to watch when he had time. They contained the essence of Millwall's past offensive line cooperation. What he wanted to focus on was the movement and the selection of players with the ball in the attack.
After playing in the Champions League in midweek, they played again in the league. Moreover, it was an away game against Charlton. Millwall showed a little fatigue. Fortunately, the game was in London, and the distance between the two clubs was not too far, but there was no distance between them.
Charlton is a very strange team, located in south London. Surrounded by Crystal Palace, Millwall, and West Ham United in the northeast, but they are like air, who do they belong to?
The relationship was tepid, and the derby was as dull as water. There was no smell of gunpowder at all.
Millwall defeated Charlton with a difficult goal through Gianluca Zambrotta's long shot in the away game, but fell to second place in the standings. Manchester United slaughtered Wimbledon 5:1 at home and overtook Millwall on goal difference.
Wall.
To win, Aldrich doesn't have to be picky about the team.
After returning home after the game, he was taking a bath in the bathroom but was interrupted by a phone call.
After answering the call, I found that it was Melanie, and that the other party was trying to be mysterious today. After the call was connected, I could occasionally hear her laughter, and her few words were mixed with an inexplicable excitement.
"What good happened? Weird, shouldn't you be worried now? Aren't you sad that Halliwell announced her withdrawal from the Spice Girls?"
Aldrich lay in the bathtub with the phone in hand.
He doesn't care about things in the entertainment industry, but he also pays attention to the news about the Spice Girls in his spare time every day.
Just as the North American concert was about to start, Halliwell suddenly announced that she would leave the Spice Girls after the tour and may permanently retire from the entertainment industry. This news had no impact on people like Aldridge, but it had no impact on the Spice Girls.
The fans were a bolt from the blue.
"Haha, I don't want to think about those things for the moment. Yes, something good happened to me. You are so smart, guess what!"
Aldrich shouted exaggeratedly: "I know! You have rebelled!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Today's Merseyside derby, Liverpool drew with Everton away from home. You rebelled and became an Everton fan, so you are very happy, right?"
"Aldrich, you really deserve a beating! It has nothing to do with football, guess again!"
"You signed a big contract with a record company?"
"Tch, it has nothing to do with career! Guess again!"
Aldrich continued to guess, but he still failed to guess. He said to the phone dumbfounded: "You should give me a hint, right?"
"Okay, let me give you a little reminder. You have to use your brain to think of two names."
Aldrich didn't react and lamented: "What kind of reminder is this?"
"Hmph..."
Amidst her hum of pleasure, Aldrich suddenly stood up from the bathtub, and with a splash, water splashed outside the bathtub.
He looked nervous, holding the phone tightly, breathing heavily, and after a long while he hesitated and asked: "Are you, you, you, pregnant?"
"Yeah! You guessed it right, congratulations! You're going to be a dad!"
Aldrich's heart trembled violently, and he asked excitedly: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"
"It's true! I just came back from the hospital, it's absolutely true!"
"Wow! Wow... I have a baby? I have a baby..."
Aldrich was naked and dancing in the bathtub like a mental patient.
Melanie listened to Aldrich's silly shouting and cheering voice coming from the receiver, and her smile also reached Aldrich's ears from the receiver.
"Just wait, I'll go find you now."
Aldridge quickly hung up the phone, booked a flight, and called the club at the same time to tell him that he was going to take two days off, and there happened to be no game in the middle of the week.
When he confirmed from Melanie that he would have the next generation, he couldn't help but feel great joy in his heart. At this moment, he confirmed that he wanted children and hoped to have his own children in his life. He even hoped that
Have a complete family of your own.
On the way to the airport, Aldrich called Arthur.
The old gangster hadn't come home yet at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, and he was playing with his old friends in the bar with his wife. When Aldrich called, the noisy environment in the bar made it impossible for him to hear what Aldrich was saying.
He went to a place with a better environment and listened to the call again. He asked: "Son, what did you just say?"
"I'm going to be a dad! Melanie is pregnant."
"Oh. Is it yours?"
Aldrich, who was sitting in the taxi, suddenly looked helpless when he heard Arthur's rhetorical question.
"Do you want to challenge me to a duel?"
"No, isn't she always abroad?"
"She came back last month. Counting the time, she has reacted almost now. Damn it, why am I telling you this! I know you don't like her..."
"Okay, since you are sure it is your child, then I am happy for you. Congratulations, son, you will soon feel the pain of me, father, for giving birth to you, and then personally raising you three bastards, I
Do you know how much hardship you have endured?"
"Really? Didn't you say before that I picked it up from the trash?"
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Arthur closed his eyes and couldn't stop smiling.
When he walked back to the main hall of the bar, he climbed directly onto a table, stood up and shouted: "I'm treating everyone today!"
His old friends were stunned, while Amelia grabbed his trouser legs and said without tears: "Old bastard, are you drunk again?"
Our family has money, but we don’t spend it in this way!
Arthur was very sober. As the audience cheered, he jumped off the table, hugged his wife, picked up a beer bottle, and clinked glasses with his old friends. He laughed and said: "Aldrich is going to be a father, and Hall II is coming.
!”
He is self-aware. He doesn't dare to call Aldridge's child Hall III. He can't compare to the great achievements Aldridge has brought to Millwall. Having such a son is enough for him to be proud. There is no need to do it in his own face.
Put gold on it.
Amelia was also stunned in surprise.
Old friends nearby joked: "The baby hasn't been born yet? How do you know it's a boy? If it's a girl, is it still Hall II?"
Arthur curled his lips and said: "My three children are all boys, and the eldest son's child is also a boy. This is a fine tradition of the Hall family."
"From a probability perspective, it cannot always be a boy..."
"Learn from your sister about probability. You have been selling pornographic videos on the street before you even graduated from elementary school. You know nothing about probability!"
"Ha ha ha ha......"
After chatting and spanking, these old friends toasted to Arthur and Amelia.
After Amelia was so happy, she secretly asked Arthur: "Who will bear Aldrich's child?"
Arthur rolled his eyes and said, "Chisholm."
Amelia pursed her lips and said nothing.
The old couple don't like the singer, not because of her appearance or her personality, but because she is a singer and they don't have time to spend time with Aldrich. They feel sorry for their younger son and always hope that they can always be with her.
Women together, that's what life is like.
Just like they never wanted to see the supermodel girlfriend Andrew brought home, this directly led to Andrew remaining single now. Even if he had a short-term female companion, he would never bring him home to make himself unhappy.
Aldrich kept sending messages to his friends while waiting in the airport terminal to board his flight.
It's strange that he rarely shares some private things, such as his birthday, and he won't celebrate when he gets a career honor, but today, he can't wait to let the world know that he will become a father.
It made him extremely happy.
Barnett and Andrew both called immediately. Barnett happened to be in the United States and said he would personally pick him up.
He's a little crazy today.
When queuing up to board the plane, he turned to look at the middle-aged woman behind him with a smile. The woman stared at him warily, but he took the initiative to reach out to shake her hand and said with a smile: "I'm going to be a father."
The middle-aged woman shook hands with him inexplicably, said dry congratulations, then stared at Aldrich's face and thought for a moment, and finally shook her head.
She cursed in her heart: The young man is quite handsome, and he looks very much like the famous young marshal from England. It's a pity that he has something wrong with his brain.
When Aldrich boarded the plane, he shook hands with the flight attendant warmly and told her: I'm going to be a father!
The flight attendant thought the other person was trying to take advantage of him, so she kept smiling awkwardly. After Aldrich entered the cabin and found his seat and sat down, the flight attendants whispered to each other and reminded each other: Be careful with that man.
Aldridge didn't know that he had been labeled a "pervert" on his head.
The flight from London to New York was long, but Aldrich was not sleepy at all. He was going crazy from the stress.
What a pity, the seat next to me was empty and there was no one to chat with to kill time.
Now that he was free, Aldrich began to plan his future life.
After having a child, he can no longer live in that small apartment. The place seems a bit small. To put it bluntly, he just doesn't want to wrong his child, even if it doesn't matter until the child grows up.
He enthusiastically wrote down his future life plan on paper, treating it as a treasure to run a good family. However, he never imagined that this densely written paper would eventually become scraps of paper.
