Aldridge in 1994 is definitely not comparable to Aldridge in 2002. Regardless of coaching experience, ability, keen insight into the game, decisiveness in on-the-spot command, etc., the latter is definitely better, just like practicing.
Or it may be leveling up. At that time, he was just a newcomer, but now he is a proficient in kung fu and is hailed as a grand master by the outside world.
In the same way, Mourinho in 2003 cannot be compared with Mourinho in 2010.
The current Mourinho is not a magic bird who is often in the vortex of crazy criticism from opponents such as "utilitarian football", "anti-football", "bus representative" and so on.
This can also be seen in the technical and tactical system of the Porto team.
We haven't played 433 yet, we haven't used double midfielders, we haven't relied on modern wingers, etc.
Porto finished second in the domestic league for two consecutive seasons last season and the season before. This led to the arrival of Mourinho half way through last season, and in his first full season as coach, he led Porto
Back to the pinnacle of the Portuguese Super League.
Porto can be said to be the best in Portugal, and in the European war, the European secondary cup and the UEFA Cup are the stage. In the European war, they actually encounter not many top teams. Because of this, Porto is very smooth.
, achieved domestic dominance and reached the stage of the UEFA Cup finals.
Mourinho did not change the formation, and was not completely led by Millwall. He still showed Porto's usual 442. His attitude was not to fall behind. Will it be as he wished in the game? Then
It depends on the specific trend of the game.
From this point of view, Aldridge believes that Mourinho is really "crazy" now. This kind of madness tends to be arrogant, just like when he came to the Premier League in his original history, he first belittled Ferguson's achievements in the Premier League.
, and he actually did not surpass Ferguson in the Premier League, at least. Chelsea did not even achieve three consecutive league titles in his hands.
Mourinho is a real strong player, and will not change because of the potential black whistle that many people criticized in Porto's 2003-04 Champions League, or because of the final black whistle case of referee manipulation in Porto's domestic league in 2008.
However, if Aldridge is afraid of Mourinho today, then his life will be in vain!
On this day that he experienced personally as Aldrich Hall, in terms of mentality, Aldridge had more or less the consciousness of giving Mourinho a blow.
Crazy, need capital!
He doesn't mind helping Mourinho see the reality.
"The 2002-03 UEFA Cup finals are about to begin. The two teams in this finals are Porto, the new league champions from Portugal, and Millwall, who have just had their consecutive Premier League titles ended. Millwall came to the finals and
Not surprisingly, after they were eliminated from the Champions League at the end of last year, some media predicted that Millwall would reach the UEFA Cup final. After all, Millwall's overall strength is outstanding in the UEFA Cup. Let's take a look below.
Take a look at the starting lineups of both sides.
From the beginning of the game, Millwall completely took the initiative on the field!
Mourinho supervises the battle from the sidelines with a cold look on his face, watching the opponent's players passing and cooperating steadily on the court. This system is clear at a glance. The players are reasonably distributed and positioned, the distance is kept moderate, the ball transfer rate is gradually accelerating, and when the ball
When the frontcourt attacking four is at the feet, Porto's defense is in danger!
Ronaldinho, Nedved, Larsson, Henry.
Just for these four people, everyone's foot skills can impact locally and bring about local changes, and they also have a strong sense of teamwork. Alonso and De Rossi in the midfield and backfield control the ball and pass the ball simply and clearly.
The ball supports the overall system, just like the team's
Backbone, Schneider and Ashley Cole made mysterious assists, constantly squeezing Porto's formation into the backcourt, while Porto was in a panic.
The forwards also involuntarily retreated to defend.
There is no other way. Seeing that the team is struggling to defend in the midfield and backfield, players with team awareness will take the initiative to defend and support their teammates.
20 minutes passed, and Mourinho had a cold face, hiding his inner panic.
His Porto's entire technical and tactical system was destroyed!
Defense, one-on-one with four defenders, zone defense, absolutely cannot prevent Millwall's magical attacking group. This is before Millwall's star has yet to show off his power alone, because Millwall allows the ball to move as fast as Porto
The thin defense line is difficult to coordinate quickly.
Of Porto's two wide players, Maniche is good at long-range shots and his defense is okay, but he is most outstanding when looking for opportunities behind the forwards. When participating in defense and being suppressed in the backcourt, Porto does not have the absolute speed advantage to attack effectively.
.
On the other side, Alenichev on the right is a winger and is very fast. Unfortunately, he encountered two major problems in this game. The first is a flaw, that is, his own physical fitness is not outstanding, and the second
The only thing is, on his side is Ronaldinho!
Costinha, the single defensive midfielder, is a general that Mourinho trusts very much. He has a large defensive area and amazing interception efficiency. However, it also depends on who the opponent is. If Nedvěd is unable to run away, he can handle it alone.
It's a bit difficult, and Deco's return defense is needed to fill the gap. When Ronaldinho cuts inside,
Or when changing positions with Nedvěd, whether it is to mark Ronaldinho or fill the defensive gap, Costinha cannot take care of wing defense. Can Ferreira alone guard Ronaldinho? So Alenichev must
Back on defense, he runs on the defensive line. Offensive? Both sides are almost useless.
Plus Deco. He is Porto's offensive organizer. But he is not a controlling midfielder. Even if Porto's defense is successful, he will get the ball and give him very little time to play the ball. There are many players in front of him.
Alonso and De Rossi, with Nedvěd behind him to defend, it would be difficult for him to do so if his teammates on the wing did not move into position.
Effective organization. In itself, his speed is not a specialty. Therefore, Porto's offensive and defensive system was destroyed by Millwall and was chaotic. In the past, against the opponents they encountered in the Portuguese Super League and the UEFA Cup, they could play according to their own will in an orderly manner.
Today, the internal order they were familiar with was completely disrupted.
In the first 20 minutes, Millwall players were playing team football in an absolute sense. There was no particular focus on individual performance. This is also one of the styles that Millwall has finally developed over the years.
In the early stage of the game, first let all the players on the team be active and take root in the team foundation. This is also a way of comprehensively suppressing the opponent and paralyzing the opponent. Then, based on this basis, based on the observation and understanding of the first 20 minutes, focus on local improvements.
The premise of the article is that while their team is operating actively, they are still unable to break through the opponent's door.
Porto's tactical discipline and team chemistry are quite impressive, otherwise, they would have been unable to withstand Millwall's highly penetrating teamwork.
In the 24th minute, Ronaldinho began to show off his power. After getting the ball for the first time in the game, he began to control the rhythm by himself. Before that, he had been cooperating with his teammates to make the ball move at a very fast speed.
This time, he slowed down his pace and controlled the ball on the spot. When Alenichev and Ferreira double-teamed him, he deftly passed the ball behind Ferreira. At the same time, Ashley
- Cole went down to the bottom and controlled the ball in front of the baseline behind Ferreira. Ferreira retreated to defend. Porto's entire defense also moved towards the baseline. Ashley Cole was not in a hurry and passed the ball.
When Ferreira got close, he suddenly passed the ball back to Ronaldinho.
Ronaldinho passed the ball repeatedly, and Alenichev's defense against him was useless. Ronaldinho, who was cutting inside, stepped on the line of the penalty area and dribbled the ball laterally. When Costinha and Deco pounced on him at the same time, Ronaldinho
The ball was passed diagonally back to Alonso who was following up. The latter kept the ball and diagonally inserted it into the space in the ribs of the penalty area on the other side. Larsson got rid of Valente and cut into the hinterland of the penalty area. He already had a chance to shoot.
!
Porto's defense quickly rushed toward Larsson. At the critical moment, Larsson missed the shot and passed the ball back to the penalty spot. When the Porto defenders turned around, they only saw the ball flying past their sight like a shooting star.
Goalkeeper Baia had no reaction and the ball rolled out of the goal.
Nedved hit the door with a heavy cannon and succeeded with one blow!
"Millwall scored the first goal! This goal is simply wonderful. Millwall played a pleasing teamwork in a small space when many people on the opponent recovered the penalty area. First, Ronaldinho tore it from the left.
Open up the opponent's defense line, disrupt all the opponent's marking rhythm, and then shift the offense
On the right side, Larsson had a chance to shoot, but he was not greedy for credit and passed the ball to Nedvěd, who was in a better position and was unmarked. The latter hit the goal hard without giving Baia any chance to save. 1:0
, so far in the game, Porto and Millwall are not teams at the same level at all!"
Mourinho's face was as deep as water and he could only encourage the team from the sidelines to prevent the team from being hit by conceding goals.
But what about himself?
Have you been hit already?
At this time, it’s time to think back, right?
At a certain time in the past, the European media came to the conclusion: facing Millwall, first of all, the forwards cannot be in double figures.
This definition of double forwards means real forwards, fake forwards, and true attacking midfielders do not count.
Because if you use two forwards, your midfield and backfield formation, no matter how you arrange it, will not be able to create an advantage in the full-field confrontation, and it will even be difficult to maintain balance.
For example, Manchester United and Arsenal are both at 442, but Solskjaer, who has partnered with Ruud van Nistelrooy in Manchester United in the past two seasons, and Bergkamp of Arsenal, the former can defend in front of the penalty area, and the latter can at least almost return to the central midfielder.
The defensive positions are almost the same, so they haven't had an advantage on the field. Manchester United defeated Millwall only by relying on set kicks.
Mourinho was unwilling to give in. He originally thought that even though the individual strength of Porto's players was worse than Millwall's, he naively believed that the Porto he trained and the overall strength of the team's chemical reaction should be able to compete with Millwall.
It is undeniable that Porto has a strong team spirit, but Millwall's team chemistry and the effects it produces have long been famous in Europe!
It is also possible that the internal turmoil at Millwall this season has led to a decline in outside assessments in this regard.
But in the end, on the stage of this UEFA Cup final, Porto had no power to fight back!
Millwall scored a goal and took the lead. The star group that had been eclipsed all season began to explode!
Saying goodbye to this failed season?
Or is it about welcoming new glory and unable to hold back the passion that bursts out?
Aldrich stood on the sidelines, as steady as a rock. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
