Aldridge is now only focusing on the general direction of managing the team. When signing or selling players in the transfer market, he directly negotiates with the other manager. As for the contract benefits of player renewals or signings, Aldridge will not personally intervene.
Leave the job to Adam.
For example, if he thinks it's time to give a player a new contract, he can tell Adam and roughly raise his salary by a certain level. Adam will then have the confidence to go out and deal with the player's agent, or directly talk to the player.
As the head coach, Aldridge only communicates with players within the scope of the essence of football, and will not engage in face-to-face bargaining.
During the home game against Chelsea, Ferdinand was kicked off the bench and replaced by Neal. Aldridge needed Ferdinand to calm down.
It’s not that the future Ferdinand is worthless, but that the club is a pyramid structure. The locker room has established a stable order over the years. Aldridge doesn’t care how other teams manage it. Under his rule, "the following offenses are committed against the top" will never be tolerated.
.
Ferdinand is not challenging the authority of his coach, but he is disrupting the order of the locker room and creating negative factors for this stable structure.
In terms of the defender's salary, he has been in the team for less time than either Materazzi or Neal. His contribution to the team is just a substitute, and his ability is still improving. It is obvious that he is not the mainstay of the team.
, Aldridge admits his future potential, but if he wants to ask for a higher salary now than Neal and Materazzi, it is second only to Southgate and other first-team main players' salary.
Aldrich would say sorry and tell him to get lost!
This is a very simple choice. If Aldridge satisfies him, he will stay, and then what? What do other substitute players think? What do the main players think?
Their big contracts are earned through victory after victory. They are rewards for making a greater contribution to the club's reputation. Why should a substitute's contract be doubled because of another team's seduction?
So can they do the same? When wealthy families come to seduce them, they also ask for higher remuneration?
If a team like Leeds United, which is no longer as famous and powerful as Millwall, wants to poach people, it is natural to learn from Chelsea. It invests heavily in the transfer market and gives players high treatment that exceeds their worth. Otherwise, why would they condescend to it?
Go to your place?
Even if Ferdinand only asked for a 30% contract increase, Aldridge would not kick him off the roster directly. He had no time to analyze Ferdinand's career prospects. Players are also eager for quick success. They are not willing to make a name for themselves step by step until they are full of honors.
Naturally, he became famous and became one of the richest people in the world. He wanted to make "quick money", whatever he wanted.
The Lion's Den stadium was packed.
Millwall and Chelsea players prepare to play in the tunnel.
Vialli stood in front of the visiting team's coaching bench with a solemn look on his face, while Aldridge looked calm and relaxed, chatting with Jenson from time to time while sitting on the coaching bench.
His relaxed and confident posture is for the players to see.
At this time, if the coach is so nervous that he sweats as if the building is about to collapse, it will of course affect the mentality of the players.
"A London derby in the 36th round of the 1998-99 Premier League season is about to begin. Millwall is at home and welcomes the challenge of Chelsea. In yesterday's game, Manchester United was held to a draw by Leeds United at Elland Road. This result
Unsurprisingly, Leeds United have been unstoppable under the leadership of O'Reilly this season. If Leeds United's bench depth and the team can be more mature, perhaps they will also join the chaos and excitement of this season.
The championship drama! Manchester United currently sits alone at the top of the standings, but its lead is only 1 point. Millwall and Arsenal kick off at the same time today. Once one of the two teams wins, Manchester United's top spot will change hands.
.Chelsea is 3 points behind Manchester United and 2 points behind Arsenal and Millwall. They also seem to have hope of winning the championship. There is no doubt that today's game will be the biggest uncertain factor in the top four teams' championship situation!"
Players from both sides played, and Millwall still played 433 today.
When entering the stadium, you can clearly see the players from both teams holding their heads high and showing great fighting spirit.
After Manchester United was held to a draw yesterday, the title initiative has returned to Millwall's hands.
This allows players to concentrate on their own game without looking at other people's faces.
Now we are level with Arsenal and behind on goal difference, it doesn't matter anymore.
There are three games left, Chelsea today, Everton next week, and Arsenal in the final game of the Premier League. If we can't win them all and the Premier League championship goes to someone else, we can only blame ourselves for not living up to expectations. There is no need to blame others.
To win the championship, defeat all strong enemies!
With three rounds left in the league, Chelsea's hopes of winning the championship are slightly slim.
Even if they win today and are tied with Manchester United, they may still fall behind Arsenal, not to mention the goal difference between them and Manchester United is too big.
However, they still maintain their ambition to compete for the championship. No matter what happens, they must reach the top three and strive to enter the Champions League next season!
This battle is undoubtedly the Battle of Tianwang Mountain!
Before the game, Aldridge did not engage in psychological warfare with Vialli. There was no need for it. There was no doubt about the fighting spirit of the remaining three opponents. Chelsea could not come to the Lion's Den for a draw. That would make no sense.
It will only make them farther away from their dream of entering the Champions League. The difference between their top three teams is at least 2 points, and a draw will add 1 point. Does it make sense?
When the game started, the two sides who had carefully prepared for this game started to attack!
"The pace of the game was very fast from the beginning. Both sides fought for every inch of ground. The ball was played quickly and concisely. The purpose of moving forward was very clear. I wonder, is Millwall's defense using offside tactics today?"
At the beginning of the game, Di Matteo passed the ball to Zola. As a result, the Dwarf Tiger got the ball on the penalty area line and directly kicked through the goal. The linesman raised the flag to indicate that it was offside, and it was very obvious.
Offside?
Of course not, Aldridge also started working on the next stage of team construction after defeating Munich.
The defense seems to have a lot of prerequisites. In fact, it starts a high-pressure press and launches a quick counterattack after the steal. This tactical arrangement is also the future trend. You will often see a scene in football matches: A counterattack against B, in which
After being intercepted in the midfield, B turns around and immediately counterattacks A. It goes back and forth. It depends on who is more efficient in killing the opponent's offense, who makes mistakes when the offensive and defensive rhythm is extremely fast, and whose offensive player is more efficient.
Can seize the opportunity!
In fact, this is the premise of defending key areas. What is stifled is not the opponent's last blow, but the opponent's fatal pass and destroys the opponent's offensive organization. Once the midfield interception is unfavorable, the high-pressure press will not be effective and the defense will be penetrated.
The probability is very high, and the rest can only depend on the goalkeeper and the opponent's forward's ability to seize opportunities.
Players from both sides refused to give in and started fighting in the midfield. Di Matteo just took the ball and turned around and passed it to Petrescu on the wing. Zambrotta directly stole the ball and successfully passed it diagonally to Nedvěd.
The player knocked the ball back to Pirlo, who passed the ball into the penalty area. Henry lost the confrontation with Desailly, but Desailly's header cleared the ball, and the little Wise fought for it again.
Lost to Larson.
Larsson headed the ball to Pirlo, and Millwall continued to attack.
"The pace of today's game was dizzyingly fast, and Millwall didn't seem to give the opponent a second to breathe."
Pirlo passed Di Matteo with a fake pass, and then passed diagonally to the left wing. Grunchard dribbled the ball and cut inside, walking across the middle. Henry successfully countered the offside, and Grunchard grabbed the front ball on Leboeuf.
The ball went behind the opponent. Henry ran around to the outside of the ball's rolling path, met the ball and shot it, and the ball hit the side netting at the far end of the goal.
"In the 11th minute of the opening, Millwall scored! Henry opened the scoring. The striker who switched from winger to center felt better and better in shooting in the penalty area! Hall has trained another player who is expected to become a world-class player.
forward!"
Aldridge raised his arms and shouted from the sidelines.
After Henry scored, he pointed at Grenchar and laughed wildly. They ran to the sidelines together to greet the fans in the stands.
After the defeat in Munich, the fans' unwavering support made them full of energy to repay them.
They failed to win the European Champions Cup, but they vowed not to miss the league championship again!
After being eliminated by Bayern Munich, Aldridge reflected on it. Although he was ultimately eliminated by a penalty shootout, he believed that this way of elimination was not heroic as Fleet Street described it, but cowardly!
He believes that one should take bold risks when it’s time to gamble!
Even if you lose, it will be a great success, but in the process of taking risks, your chances of winning will also be improved.
Therefore, when playing Chelsea, he did not play psychological warfare, and Millwall had to take the initiative. Even if Chelsea's situation forced them not to be conservative, Millwall still gave up the seemingly more reliable defensive counterattack or offensive and defensive balance system.
High-pressure press and crazy attack!
Compete with the opponent's player ability and willpower to see who can't keep up with the opponent's pace in this frequent offensive and defensive rhythm, and whose forward has the better ability to seize opportunities!
What to do if you lose?
Now is not the time to think about losing.
Years of coaching experience have taught Aldrich that there is no sure way to achieve final victory on the football field. Only adventurers have the chance to become winners. If you are hesitant to think about things in your mind, you may end up with nothing in the end.
.
Vialli frowned as he looked at the situation on the field, and Chelsea fans entered a familiar state again: pessimistic.
Whenever they encounter Millwall, they will start a fixed pattern: in the first stage, they are full of expectations and ambitious to kill their mortal enemy! In the second stage, when the game starts, Chelsea loses the ball first, and the fans start to pray. In the third stage, Chelsea again
After losing the ball, the fans fell into despair. In the fourth stage, the game ended, Millwall won, and Chelsea fans left the field, waiting for this mode to start again in the next confrontation...
It is said that Aldridge is the most hated man in West Ham United, but if you ask Chelsea fans who they hate the most, they can’t count how many Millwall players have broken through their own door, but basically everyone will answer Odridge.
Odd, curse him to get out as soon as possible, the Hall family had better go bankrupt as soon as possible, and Millwall will disappear from the Premier League.
Today, they seemed to have entered a familiar rhythm again.
If Chelsea lose this game, not to mention the hope of winning the championship, I am afraid that even the chance of entering the Champions League will disappear.
Chelsea fans roared in the stands almost with grief and anger, cheering for the Chelsea players.
Work hard, fight hard, and defeat Millwall. We don't care whether they win the championship or not, but we hope to see you step onto the European Champions Cup next season!
