Millwall took away victory and 3 points from San Siro, leaving AC Milan with not only the pain of defeat, but also some confusion.
The defending Serie A champion's performance in the league was unsatisfactory and failed to meet the expectations of the fans. If they want to advance to the Champions League, they can only hope for a miracle. In addition to Zaccheroni who is in a crisis of confidence, Galliani's work effectiveness has also been questioned.
.
Aldridge left San Siro with great satisfaction.
Here, especially after the game, he enjoyed the praise that a successful person deserves, especially when the Italian media, which had ridiculed, ridiculed, belittled and ridiculed him in the past, lowered their arrogant heads. What reason did he have to be unhappy?
The Italian media has been mocking Millwall's background and historical heritage for a long time. Even if they defeated Juventus two years ago and advanced, they thought Millwall was lucky.
But now, who would stand up and ridicule or belittle Millwall? That person is either stupid or crazy, and will only make himself a clown.
Aldridge stayed alone in Milan and declined Moratti's invitation. The other party must still want to do business with him and buy players. In the summer, Moratti just completed a record-breaking transfer, which brought Inter Milan
Vieri, after the start of the new season, everything is developing on the trajectory of the dream.
In the first five rounds, Inter Milan had 4 wins and 1 draw, unparalleled dominance. However, in the past 4 rounds, that is, in the last month, Inter Milan has lost 3 out of 4 games and had only 1 draw. How can Moratti still sit still? Losing the Milan derby is popular among people.
The question is, but after losing two games to Bologna and the relegation team Venezia, can he not be anxious?
It's one thing that Aldridge has a good personal relationship with him, but no player transaction has been completed so far. Now Millwall is not ready to sell players. In order to avoid embarrassment, Aldridge simply rejected Moratti.
We stayed in the city for one night, and early the next morning we went to visit other cities in Italy with Rowling and her daughter, and we spent the day happily.
After a leisurely day of relaxation, Aldridge returned to the club and re-entered work. When he walked into the office early Friday morning, Yiwen knocked on the door and walked in, placing a pile of newspapers on his desk.
"What's this?"
"Well, I think you need to take a look at today's news in Italy."
"Hehehe, I'm not a child, are you trying to coax me with the compliments the Italians have given me?"
Aldrich said half-jokingly, but actually he felt a little proud.
Is it possible for anyone to have the Italian media praise an English manager?
People, it’s okay to be proud, but never forget the form.
After Aldrich picked up the newspaper, Yi Wen stared at his expression with a half-smile. Aldrich's smile instantly solidified and slowly turned into anger.
He reads one part and then the next.
Yiwen suddenly said: "The news praising you was in the Italian newspapers yesterday. Do you need me to use it to coax you?"
"Those bitches!"
Aldrich threw the newspaper on the table and began to adjust his mentality.
Even if the Italians praise him, they do so within a certain limit. Yesterday, after praising him, they stopped praising him. They are full of food and praise Aldrich every day?
Today, the topic has come. Almost all Italian media are promoting a point of view: Why don't Italian players like Pirlo, Gattuso, Zambrotta, and Materazzi return to Italy to play for them!
It's not a question mark, so it's not a question.
The purpose of the exclamation point is to remind all Italian teams, especially the rich and famous Italian teams, that it is time to bring Italian children back to the motherland!
Just like Capdevila, Heguera and other Spanish players returning home with honor.
It sounded a bit like playing the emotional card, and there was a reason why Aldrich called them bitches.
If you really want to bring Italian children back to your motherland, why is there no Barzagli's name? He is not like De Rossi in the youth team. It must be that Barzagli's performance in the game the day before yesterday was unconvincing.
Essentially poaching!
Aldridge understands that the Italian media's praise of him is sugar-coated bullets, secretly wishing that Millwall would collapse in an instant!
If there is an Italian team that can convince these Italian players who are famous at Millwall to return to Serie A, even if Millwall will not fall apart, it will inevitably be severely damaged.
This kind of offensive created by the media will definitely have a certain effect. For example, they are listing the key points: Serie A is the number one league in the world today, the glory of playing for the giants in Serie A, Italian players returning to Serie A, the support they receive from fans in their home country, and their daily life.
Convenience, especially being able to communicate freely with everyone around you in Italian, instead of causing secret ridicule from arrogant British people for your poor English.
Although the various benefits are only one aspect, if the media creates an offensive, it must only promote the positive factors.
Even though the media in England were sometimes "dirty and shameless", during this period, they were very tolerant and respectful of foreign players, especially players from mainstream powers. Zola was praised as a demigod, and Ginola has always been a star.
They may not be able to get this kind of media treatment in their home country, which is one of the reasons why more high-level foreign players are landing in the Premier League.
But once this advantage is eliminated or narrowed, the players' own determination to persevere will inevitably begin to decline.
It is absolutely impossible to say that Aldridge cares very much about whether the player will leave.
Even if Pirlo submitted his application to leave the team tomorrow, Aldridge would not frown.
If the fate of a club can only be maintained by a few players, then the club's lifeline is extremely fragile.
Even if Aldridge disappears tomorrow and all the players in the first team disappear, will Millwall suddenly die?
No, the achievements over the years, coupled with the financial resources accumulated by the club, will allow Millwall to at least stably maintain the level of first-tier Premier League clubs. The club can hire quality coaches, recruit players with a certain reputation and strength, and continue to
We are moving forward, but the possibility of being able to recreate the glory of the past or achieve even more dazzling achievements than before is very low.
Even if these Italian players leave the team tomorrow, Aldrich will just spend time re-training foreign players.
But this is not what he wants to do most right now.
What is a dynasty?
Conquer a kingdom, continuously expand territory, stabilize royal power, and continue to rule for an era. Is this a dynasty?
If the empire built yesterday collapses tomorrow, this is not a dynasty!
For Millwall and Aldridge themselves, the stage of winning the championship has passed. Aldridge is confident that he can still do it if he has to do it again. It will only take three to five years, but he does not want to do it again.
, he hopes to open up the glorious history of the dynasty from now on!
Seeing Aldrich's silence, Yiwen's expression returned to calm, and she turned and left without saying anything else. She just wanted to pass the news to Aldrich.
Aldridge called Andrew before heading to practice.
Coincidentally, the agents of these Italian players are all Andrew.
Andrew has been a popular figure in the European football transfer market since two years ago. Even if other clubs cannot make deals with Millwall, establishing a good relationship with Andrew is normal public relations work, and Andrew's company has also
Established a huge network of relationships in England, the Premier League,
There are more than 100 players signed by the English League One and English League Two. Although there are not so many players in leagues in other countries, the total number of players exceeds 200. Andrew is now mentioned in football news or reports.
They will always add a title in front: predator.
The voice coming from the phone was lazily, probably Andrew had just gotten up.
"Ah, I have heard about it. In fact, several powerful teams in Italy have been contacting me secretly over the years. What they want most is Nedved, and Pirlo is behind. Today's news is just
It was the Italian media that punctured the window covering and made a tacit secret public."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean you don't have to worry."
"What am I worried about?"
"Aren't you worried about Pirlo and the others leaving?"
"Haha, why should I worry? When Shevchenko left, did you see me showing even a single second of sadness? When Trezeguet left, Helgra"
"Yeah, yeah, I understand what you mean, okay, then why did you call?"
"I just want you to tell me something. If someone wants to leave at some point in the future, you tell him: There is no chance to start over in your career, and the glory you missed will be missed forever."
"Are you conveying this in the name of me?"
"Yes, it's in my name. I don't want to repeat this to every player who wants to leave. Time and time again, I'm tired of it. I've given everything I can to them. If they want to leave, I've given them everything I can't."
I've never stopped anyone, that's it, goodbye."
Andrew is not in London at the moment. He bought an old castle mansion in Edinburgh last year. Now he is standing on the balcony in his pajamas. In the bedroom, two bare-backed girls are still sleeping soundly. In front of him, they are beautiful.
In the pastoral scenery, he suddenly shouted towards the sky: "Aldrich, grass! Can you make me more proud? My brother!"
After shouting, he closed his eyes and laughed.
Over the years, he has seen countless people grovel in front of him. Managers who are eager for excellent players have to talk down to him, especially when they repeatedly give in during negotiations.
He has seen weak people and strong people, but Aldrich is the only one that makes him unpredictable and admirable. His brother, the free and easy way he has performed in these years is very different.
What about good players?
What if you are hailed as a superstar?
With you, we are happy together.
Without you, I am still happy.
I will neither pressure you to cause conflicts, nor ask you to show false loyalty. If we work together, we will unite, and if we don't work, we will separate. Don't force anyone, but my success will not change, and my glory will continue. When one day
When looking back on the past, does anyone regret it, regret it, or wish to go back in time and do it all over again? Anyway, I don’t!
After Aldrich made the call, he put the incident behind him.
There is no way he can make the Italian media shut up and stop attacking his players. The rest is the player's own choice.
Although a Champions League game was played in midweek, especially two frontcourt offensive players played the full 90 minutes, Aldridge still sent all the main players to play in the weekend league, because after this league, there will be another period of time.
On FIFA match days, many national teams play friendly matches, and players who go to the national team can take a proper rest. Only a few European national teams have to play in the additional knockout rounds of the European Cup qualifiers.
In the 15th round of the Premier League, Millwall defeated visiting Sheffield Wednesday 5:1 at the Lion's Den Stadium, winning 15 consecutive league victories in the new season. At the same time, the league record of 19 consecutive wins across the season also refreshed the club's historical record.
Other competitors, Manchester United and Arsenal, both won. Leeds United suffered a bloodbath in the 13th round. As expected, they lost to the newly promoted team in the last round away game, but they were lucky and encountered the promoted team again this round. O'Reilly at least
The conditions on the schedule are loose, and it is difficult to win at home to stop the decline. Chelsea, after losing four games in a row, drew with Everton at Goodison Park this round and has not won in five league games.
The Premier League is very quiet. No coach wants to talk about Millwall. Even Ferguson and Wenger are unwilling to mention this team.
They understand that as long as Millwall is mentioned, not only will it not be able to affect Millwall, but it will also put great pressure on their own team. The terrifying gap in the standings is an invisible mountain that makes the pursuers behind them all over.
