In fact, O'Reilly still has some selfish motives. After he secretly discussed with Ridsdale and confirmed that the team will give him sufficient transfer funds to sign players after the end of the season, O'Reilly can now start searching for transfer targets.
Already.
He believes that Leeds United still lacks forwards, Viduka and Smith, which is not a bad thing in his mind, but that for a team that aims to compete in the Champions League, the forward reserves are still too thin.
In his list of signings, Klose ranks first.
Millwall's main striker, Leeds United can't afford even one of Henry's legs. Larsson is nearly 30 years old. Ronaldinho? Even if Ronaldinho is a free agent and Leeds United offers the highest salary in the world, Ronaldinho will not be able to go.
.
And Klose is not guaranteed a starting position at Millwall. When Nedved was injured in the first half of the season, Klose performed well and performed stably as a substitute. If he can go to Leeds United, he will definitely become
The unbreakable main force.
For a player like this who is not the main striker of a wealthy club, Leeds United feel that they can only get it for 15 million pounds. At worst, if they add more, it will not exceed 20 million pounds anyway.
Aldridge found O'Reilly coming to his side again. The other side looked as usual, looked at the players on the field, and said: "Millwall has so many young talents. Joe Cole, Villa, can take over Larsson in the future."
Let’s go to class.”
Although it is difficult to predict the level of achievement of a player during the training stage, in Aldrich's mind, he really has a certain position in cultivating players.
Take Glenchard for example. Today, there will be no change in their positioning: substitute.
As for Villa, Aldridge really intends to train him to become the main force in the future. As for when he will take over, it is difficult to say. Villa is not even 20 years old now. The player becomes famous too early, becomes the main force too early, and even prematurely.
Entering peak condition is not necessarily a good thing.
Brazilian players like Ronaldinho and Ronaldo are the exact opposite of European players.
South American players get out of shape early and enter their peak period quickly. If South American talented players cannot achieve anything by the age of 23 or 24, then there is basically no hope.
European players generally reach their peak later, but their careers last longer. The career curve fluctuates relatively smoothly, whether it rises initially or declines after peaking.
Stars such as Raul, Del Piero, Henry, and Irving who became famous very early are an anomaly of European players. Instead, they are more like South American players. They peaked early and were under tremendous pressure in the early stages. By the age of 30, they should have reached their peak.
When he was at his peak, his condition was not as good as when he was around 25 years old.
Aldridge did not go to see O'Reilly. He said calmly: "Leeds United's young players are not bad either, Robbie Keane. I tried to introduce him back then, but I couldn't meet his requirements."
In the lineup sent by Leeds United today, one of the forwards is Robbie Keane.
Speaking of which, Keane was unlucky. He was taken to Inter Milan by Lippi under the name of genius, but he didn't stay long. Lippi was fired by Moratti first. In the crowded dressing room of Inter Milan, Keane
With the support of Lippi, he was naturally marginalized and was loaned back to Leeds United in England in the middle of the season.
O'Reilly's expression became strange, as if he was trying to figure out Aldrich's words.
Are the Lions still interested in Robbie Keane?
He immediately changed the topic and talked about the situation of the Premier League championship. Leeds United and Manchester United are mortal enemies. O'Reilly did not explicitly say that it would be better for the Mad Lions to win the championship, but there was a meaning in his words: it would be better for the Mad Lions to win.
Manchester United finished second for five consecutive years!
Aldridge wasn't very interested in talking to him, and O'Reilly didn't intend to stay long. Before leaving, he said calmly: "Hall, I look forward to us continuing to compete next season."
What he said sounded like a hero who cherished his opponent.
Aldrich turned his head and stared at him, saying nothing for a long time. O'Reilly felt uncomfortable and wondered what was wrong with what he said.
Aldrich had no personal relationship with O'Reilly, so he said bluntly: "O'Reilly, if I were Peter Reed and said what I just said to you, what would you think?"
Peter Reid is the coach of Sunderland. In the first half of this season, he led Sunderland to great progress. They were once ranked behind Millwall and Manchester United. It was not until the final stage that the ranking slipped and fell out of the top six.
Sunderland is a small team, with Phillips leading the attack, and there are occasional exciting battles, but they are not even a disruptor in the Premier League.
O'Reilly was stunned for a moment before he understood the deeper meaning of Aldrich's words.
If Reid said something like asking O'Reilly to fight again next time, that would be really unreasonable. It is obviously not on the same level. What is there to expect?
Even if you expect it, saying so would be overestimating yourself.
Aldrich is satirizing O'Reilly for not overestimating his abilities and being self-righteous.
O'Reilly's blood surged and his expression was slightly angry. This was completely different from the scene he had imagined. He thought that when he said that, Aldrich would respond calmly, but little did he know that O'Reilly didn't feel like he had met his opponent at all.
We are not on the same level, there is nothing to compete with.
O'Reilly gritted his teeth and said with a hint of anger: "Hall, you are too arrogant!"
Aldrich lowered his head and sighed, nodded and said, "Well, I'm too arrogant."
O'Reilly was so angry that his head was burning but he couldn't say a word anymore. He snorted coldly and turned around to leave.
Aldrich sighed again. Whether he was crazy or not was not decided by him, nor by O'Reilly's words. At least, he felt confident not to give O'Reilly any face.
This has nothing to do with the team's record or each other's football prestige, but with attitude.
Aldridge considers himself to be conscientious in his work and has a better professional attitude than O'Reilly. Take today's game as an example. O'Reilly has an indifferent attitude, but Aldridge is still as serious as ever. Why should he do it?
Are you going to compare yourself with yourself?
Looking forward to the next fight?
Aldridge never expected to play against a coach like this, with little to learn and nothing to prove.
When O'Reilly turned around and left, the Lion King Stadium erupted in cheers.
A goal was scored on the field!
After receiving a cross from Grenchar, Villa used the rhythm of controlling the ball to smash the ball into space, then broke through the opponent's defender, broke into the penalty area and pushed the ball into the goal.
Aldridge smiled. This Wednesday's game against Leeds United, he finally returned to the essence of football and smiled.
He applauded Villa and then quickly returned to normal. Young players must maintain a stable mentality, not be arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat, and not be dazzled by one or two good performances.
When the game was over, the scoreboard showed a score that made Leeds United fans' wounds ache.
3:0
Villa opened the scoring. Grenciar took care of the remaining two goals.
Leeds United had 14 goals in three games against Millwall. This seven-day period was a nightmare for Leeds United.
The meaning of winning or losing the game disappeared before the game, but the young players who played in the game were naturally very happy to win. Aldridge walked into the field after the game. De Rossi shouted and rushed over, and Aldridge pinched him with his arm.
She grabbed his neck and laughed.
"Boss, how was my performance? Haha, if you want to replace me at halftime, no way! Hahahaha."
De Rossi's performance today can only be said to be very good for his current 17-year-old level, but it is still far from the average level in the Premier League. It's just that the opponent was Leeds United's substitute lineup, so the test was not big, and he is only a double player.
One of the defensive midfielders, and Pedretti is there as insurance.
Aldridge praised Alonso, Villa-Barzagli and other players one after another, and then raised his hands to applaud the stands when he left the field. At this time, the Mad Lion fans in the stands were "farewelling" the Leeds United fans, mocking
The singing started again.
The Roar Fans Organization has been showing a unique way of cheering in the stands at the end of the game.
Members of the Roar fan organization with capital letters printed on their backs turned around and formed a novel scoreboard.
Millwall 14:1 Leeds United.
Today, Aldridge attended the post-game press conference to show respect to reporters and patiently waited for questions.
Fleet Street is somewhat humbled by its European counterparts.
From the quarter-finals to the semi-finals, Fleet Street has been advocating for the prosperity of the Premier League. The top eight account for half of the country, and the semi-finals occupy three seats. Everyone is looking forward to the Champions League final to stage a civil war in the Premier League.
What's the result?
Leeds United lost 1:9 on aggregate. Not only was it a humiliating exit, but the image of English football was also damaged due to a scandal on the field.
Arsenal also failed to live up to expectations, being beaten by Bayern Munich at home and away. Millwall will meet Bayern Munich at San Siro!
The advocacy that started in the quarter-finals actually made Bayern Munich successful.
Double kill Manchester United, double kill Arsenal!
Does Fleet Street still dare to say that the Premier League is prosperous?
If Bayern Munich defeats Millwall in the final, this will definitely be a legendary season in which Bayern Munich single-handedly overwhelms the Premier League's giants!
Aldridge commented on the game and praised several players in the team, but did not mention a word about the performance of Leeds United players. There were two young players who played today, and he could not even remember their names.
Fleet Street couldn't be more hopeful than ever that Millwall could beat Bayern Munich in the final.
The two giants in the Premier League both lost to Bayern Munich, and they lost in disgrace, with home and away double wins, and they couldn't even get a draw.
The banner of the Premier League must ultimately be carried by the Mad Lion!
Aldrich was very considerate and carried the royal flag on his shoulders without hesitation.
"Bayern Munich has been one of the top teams in Europe for the past two years, and Millwall has also proved its strength with championships. I am looking forward to the final and meeting Bayern Munich in the Champions League for the third consecutive year. I don't think this is
It's a coincidence, because the teams left to the end are often strong teams. This is determined by strength. There will be dark horses, but it is difficult to get to the end. Bayern Munich defeated Manchester United and Arsenal to advance to the final. This will not happen to Millwall.
have any impact,
Because we have suppressed Manchester United and Arsenal in the league. Bayern Munich hopes to win the Champions League again after 25 years, and we also hope to become a legendary team that can defend the Champions League. There will be no difference in the desire to win between the two sides. Someone just wondered
Will Millwall lack aggressiveness? If you are a player or the coach of this team, you will know how you feel when you have the opportunity to achieve such a great achievement as defending the Champions League.
."
"We represent England, and we are also the strongest team in England. We will not have the idea of defending the honor of English football in our hearts. That is too noble. We are just mortals. We will only try our best to win all honors. This is not the relationship between England and England.
The game in Germany is a battle between Millwall from England and Bayern Munich from Germany. You ask me who will win? My answer will always be only one: Millwall. I will not think about losing the game.
What will happen, we are the strongest and we pursue every win."
The young marshal publicly declared war on Bayern Munich after the game. In his eyes, this is a battle that matches the level, the real contest, the battle at the top of Europe!
