969 Peeling off the Mythical Cloak

Millwall's decline in record last season led to a turning point in the image of falling from the altar.{3w.

This season, Arsenal has been suppressed by Arsenal in the league, and has been eliminated from both domestic cup competitions, the FA Cup and the League Cup. In the impression of the previous turning point, Millwall has returned to "mediocre", or it has settled in the normal state of a wealthy team.

.

A wealthy family will not always be the champion, and a wealthy family will not always dominate the world.

Wealthy clubs will stumble, capsize, have unstable records, and lose everything.

Millwall is a giant, and no one dares to deny their status in football. Any team that has won four Champions Leagues and has half a team of world-class stars in the modern era will be a giant. As for why Liverpool is falling from the status of a giant, it is not

They don’t have a past, but they only have a past, but they seem to have no present and future!

As for why Chelsea is developing on the road to becoming a giant, it is because they seem to have a present and a future. What they lack is honor!

Since the start of the Champions League knockout round at the end of February, Millwall has suddenly erupted in the European arena within two months. Fans, pundits, and their opponents all over the world have belatedly discovered: The Mad Lion is back!

The mad lion that made all Europe tremble is back!

They did not complete a big cycle of nirvana and rebirth. They broke everyone's expectations just like they did in the summer of 1998. When everyone thought they had predicted the result, Crazy Lion showed a subtle but powerful sense of immediacy.

The situation has returned to everyone's attention, and no one can turn their attention away, and they can no longer rudely accuse or irresponsibly criticize this team.

Aldridge is in his tenth year as coach. His rich experience made Millwall's final sprint this season more united and more powerful than ever before!

At the weekend, Millwall defeated Fulham 3:0 away from home. At the same time, Arsenal visited White Hart Lane and suffered a sniper attack from Tottenham!

Wenger, who was chatting and laughing not long ago and insisted that he would not give Millwall a chance, left with a grim look on his face amidst the gloating boos of all Tottenham fans at White Hart Lane.

"2:2! The point gap between Arsenal and Millwall has been shortened to 1 point! Will the same plot last season happen? Will Arsenal not even last the final game? We don't know, so far in the league

Arsenal, who are undefeated, and Millwall, who have only lost one game in the league, have faced each other in the last three rounds.

What kind of fight will be staged? If you are a neutral fan, you definitely don’t want the suspense to end before the final game. But now it seems that the probability of Millwall giving away the league title is not high. On the contrary, Arsenal makes people think about them.

It’s hard to worry, before the final game, can we get 6 points in both games? God knows!”

Arsenal, Arsenal.

When Aldridge learned about Arsenal's situation after the game, he immediately put pressure on Arsenal.

"Look, Arsenal made a mistake and the gap between us is only one point. What will happen next? I don't know. I only know that at the end of the first half of the league. If the trophy was awarded at that time, Arsenal was five points ahead of us.

points, the championship trophy belongs to them, but now, the fate is in our own hands. I no longer care what kind of performance Arsenal will perform next. There is only one question before Millwall: the league championship trophy is Arsenal giving up.

Give it to us, or should we go to Highbury and get it back in person."

Wenger began to avoid the war of words with Aldrich.

Local fans of Millwall in East London, after a season starts in August and ends in May, except for one month in between, most of them treat the Lions with enjoyment or even daily life.

Supporting Millwall is the instinct of die-hard fans.

There is no need to announce it every day, or talk about it like a show off to others. Walking into the stadium, watching the team's performance in a familiar position, and cheering as always, this is instinct and it is natural.

And when that special month comes, they can proudly say: The special month defined by our young commander.

May, harvest time at Millwall!

By this month, everything has become different. Their blood is boiling, and the competition has become tense and exciting. It affects people's hearts in a way that cannot be compared with before.

In the past, Manchester United tried to catch up with Millwall. Now, it has become Millwall chasing Arsenal all season. The fans know how difficult it is for the Lions and know how hard some young guys in the team have worked hard.

, so outside the training ground, they would spontaneously gather there to cheer them on.

Alonso, De Rossi, Kaká, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lahm, Baynes, Silva, Robben, etc., they also quickly gained a lot of fans. This is also a way of encouragement for the fans. It is definitely

their contribution.

In mid-week, Millwall is preparing for the weekend's league game with peace of mind.

Arsenal and Manchester United started playing in the FA Cup semi-finals. After a fierce battle, Ferguson smiled, and Wenger's face became even more gloomy.

The seemingly perfect Arsenal, Champions League, League Cup, and FA Cup in the league failed to reach the end. Ferguson led Manchester United to play a classic game, even though they had been left behind by Arsenal and Millwall in the league.

A step ahead, the defending champions had already been eclipsed in the league. However, Manchester United still asserted its presence and gave Arsenal a head-on blow when they were most nervous.

Although the domestic cup competition is for training purposes.

However, the FA Cup is more important than the League Cup, and at the semi-final stage, it is impossible for the giants to continue training. After all, if they win two games in a row, they will get a cup championship trophy with a long history and strong international influence!

For example, Aldridge dared to practice in the semifinals before, but it was only by chance, and it attracted criticism from many people. It was just an exception, not the norm for wealthy families.

Aldrich became a loudmouth.

He immediately added insult to injury to Arsenal.

"Some people say that Millwall will have a more difficult task than Arsenal in taking care of the Champions League. Now, Arsenal can completely concentrate on competing for the league title, while Millwall only has one more Champions League game than them. Next week we will play Chelsea as a guest.

After the second round of the game, if Arsenal does not win the championship in advance in the penultimate round, then who will schedule this kind of match?

The pressure words can disappear. Arsenal's undefeated league is a false strength in my opinion. They have lost the League Cup, the Champions League, and many games. They have also lost the FA Cup now.

In the league, why can't we lose? The difference between the league and the cup is very subtle. I'm tired of people saying in my ears that Arsenal are copying Mir

Wall's past myth, even if they win the championship undefeated in the end, the points are at least 6 points away from Millwall's undefeated championship in the past. Sometimes the league is an arithmetic problem. In 3 games, winning 2 games and losing 1 is 6 points, and

Winning 1 game and drawing 2 games is 5 points. Haha, Arsenal has had 12 draws in the league, which means 36 points in 12 games.

points, they lost 24 points. If they are braver, have the courage to fight back, and win two or three games, so what if they lose one or two games? The points will be very cost-effective, and the suspense of the Premier League will be ended early, but

They don't. Now, Millwall, which is getting better and stronger, has the initiative in its destiny."

In terms of psychological warfare, Wenger is obviously no match for Aldridge.

Aldridge knows very well what his team needs. What Millwall needs is momentum. The older generation of players cannot tolerate the loss of the league championship for two consecutive seasons. The new generation of rising stars are also eager to win the league.

Championship trophy in arms.

Arsenal's famous players and Arsenal-leaning football critics all reminded Wenger that this was Aldridge's psychological warfare.

Repeatedly downplaying Arsenal's unbeaten record, constantly mentioning Arsenal's defeat, and even used "arithmetic problems" to satirize them for "losing their ambition to win in order to remain undefeated."

This is absolutely unfair.

nonsense!

Psychological warfare is never about talking about truth and promoting truth, goodness and beauty.

It is to attack your psychological defenses, to shake your heart, and to create a psychological environment of panic for you.

Why do you think Ferguson dared to conclude that Newcastle United would not win the league title when they were more than 10 points behind?

When Aldridge was engaging in psychological warfare with Ferguson, why did one side pursue a pursuit while the other side continued to despise Manchester United?

Psychological warfare is never about reasoning and arguing, it is just a means of seizing opportunities, attacking opponents at the appropriate time, and benefiting one's own side.

Arsenal's pressure comes from the fact that they have been the league leader since the second round of the league!

And on the road of being undefeated, he began to be mythical!

Aldridge wants to strip off their mythical coat and shake their confidence. In the sprint to the end of the season, Millwall's most important factors are three points.

First, the pressure on Arsenal itself.

Secondly, Arsenal was eliminated from the Champions League in early April and lost in the semi-finals of the FA Cup at the end of April, which was a blow caused by being eliminated in both cases.

Thirdly, Millwall shortened the league points with Arsenal in the same period, and at the same time, it had a shocking effect by advancing in the Champions League!

The positive factors for Arsenal are two points.

First, they are leading the league points, and the initiative is actually still in their hands.

Second, they only have the last three league games left in the season, so they can concentrate on winning the league championship and will not be affected by other things.

In the penultimate round of the league, Millwall defeated Bolton 3:1 at home, and Arsenal also defeated Birmingham 2:1 at home.

Arsenal's victory was extremely thrilling. After losing in the FA Cup semi-finals, their nerves were far more intense than Millwall's.

Although Millwall claims to take care of the European war, when analyzed in detail, Millwall may only play one more league game than Arsenal.

Because they played both legs of the Champions League in London, from East London to West London, and Arsenal and Manchester United had to go to a neutral venue to play in the FA Cup semi-finals.

Millwall played lightly in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals. Aldridge continued to defend against counterattacks. The teenagers performed well. Robben and Cristiano Ronaldo, two backfooted wingers, cut inside wildly, plus Kaká and Villa in front.

In echoes before and after the game, Millwall tied with Chelsea 2:2 in the away game and advanced to the Champions League final with a total score of 7:2. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
