Arsenal, who were perfect in their hearts, gave away the championship in the end. No, it wasn't given away, it was snatched away by Millwall in a cruel and brutal manner!
Many fans left, but many fans sat in the stands with their heads in their hands and their faces blank, as if they were thinking: Why?
Is it as criticized by some media in Fleet Street?
Arsenal, which is undefeated in 37 games but has drawn 12 games, is not born to win? They have too many draws.
Many fans don't know that some media are the mouthpieces of the Millwall camp, and their propaganda is to attack Arsenal.
There are also many people who believe that Millwall is indeed too strong. The foundation they have accumulated over the past ten years is enough to make them unstoppable when they break out.
Even among the new stars that have emerged in their formation, De Rossi, Alonso, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, and Villa, the most junior among them is Kaka, and Kaka has already been at Millwall for three years.
season!
The tacit understanding and centripetal force of their entire team is extremely strong!
Facing this defeat, the Arsenal players were shocked and suffered setbacks that outsiders could not imagine.
Ibrahimovic has performed amazingly this season. Without Henry, he would have won the Premier League Golden Boot. He is also among the top ten in assists.
However, after the game, he could only put his hands on his hips and look down at the ground. His proud head could no longer be raised up.
No one heard what he said to himself.
"Winning a championship here is simply impossible!"
Why is it impossible?
Because there is Millwall that could not meet his personal requirements and missed it!
Ibrahimovic has been invited by many teams. Even Chelsea is willing to offer him a very high transfer fee and personal contract treatment, but he stays at Arsenal not for money. It is for the championship.
He can feel that Arsenal has reached its limit this season, but this limit cannot add a top league championship to his personal honors.
He also believes that if he continues to stay here, he will be stronger next season.
However, next season, will Bergkamp be stronger? Will Pires be stronger? But Millwall will definitely be stronger!
He raised his right hand and touched his forehead and wiped it. Ibrahimovic took off his jersey and walked lonely towards the players' tunnel. He left and never came back to Highbury as an Arsenal player.
It was his teammates who also fell to the bottom of their mood. Vieira also left, and Van Bronckhorst also left.
On this day when the championship dream was shattered, Arsenal also completely bid farewell to an era.
After the European Cup in the summer, Ibrahimovic moved to Juventus, Vieira moved to Inter Milan, and Van Bronckhorst moved to Barcelona.
Wenger injected technical elements into Arsenal, making the dull "library" in the past become gorgeous and delicate. However, in the past era, the core of Arsenal has always been counterattack. Only counterattack can they have gorgeous performances. Only counterattack
, the capital that enables Arsenal to move towards the championship step by step, but when the counterattack reached its peak this season, Arsenal was finally reversed by Millwall.
As the extremely important players in the third line left one after another, veteran Bergkamp retreated to the second line, Wenger's Arsenal began to enter a period of transformation. From the core concept of counterattack football style, it officially moved towards offensive football. Wenger began to search for No. 10
Players, began to shape the new ideal and perfect Arsenal.
...
Highbury became the ocean for Millwall's championship carnival.
Fans who will mention the glory of Millwall this season in the future will definitely say: The coronation at Highbury is the most wonderful moment of the Lions.
No, wrong, absolutely wrong!
In the eyes of Millwall people, any place outside is not as good as their home, even if it is not Highbury, Upton Park, Stamford Bridge or Old Trafford, it is not as good as the Lion King Stadium.
In that case, they will have 60,000 Lions fans entering the stadium to witness this miraculous scene and witness their team regaining the throne.
Now, there are only 10,000 poor fans, so the scene is somewhat deserted.
Celebrating at someone else's place may give you a sense of spiritual pleasure, but you will always feel a little uncomfortable. Just like if you go to someone else's home to celebrate your birthday, wouldn't it be more carefree and enjoyable than at your own home?
On the court, Aldridge hugged every player, especially when he hugged Southgate and Nedvěd. Everything was silent and the emotions were deeply touched.
Many years ago, when Aldrich was confused and chatting with De Rossi on the streets of Rome, he once sighed in his heart: Who will accompany me to the end?
Time gave the answer.
He no longer feels sad for those who have left, he will only cherish the people in front of him.
He was thrown into the sky by the players, laughed and ran wildly on the court with the players, and impromptuly danced a cheerful samba with Ronaldinho...
At Highbury, Millwall returns to the Premier League throne!
Twelve days later, the sword points to the top of Europe!
...
Millwall's league reversal can be called another epic, and it is undoubtedly the biggest shock to the Premier League!
Arsenal was hit directly from the top to the bottom.
Manchester United
Before his vacation, Ferguson slammed the table at the board of directors and roared hysterically. He just stated one fact: If you don't pay, Manchester United wants to catch up with Millwall. Just dream!
liverpool
The owner, David Moores, is a highly respected old man who has been in charge of Liverpool since the early 1990s. Although he works hard, as Fleet Street mocks: Mr. Moores has always been a hard-working coachman, but he has caught up.
Don’t move on the increasingly cumbersome old cow of Liverpool!
When Chelsea no longer suddenly emerged and became a stable league powerhouse, Moores could no longer sit still. Although he was not a particularly rich man, and there was a huge gap between him and Abramovich, he still sold iron and almost paid for it.
He used all his money to squeeze out Liverpool's transfer budget for the new season, and then flew to Spain with the Liverpool team. With full sincerity, he spent a lot of money to hire Benitez, the most famous young coach of Spain's new generation.
Liverpool will not be able to play in the Champions League next season. Valencia won the league title this season. However, Valencia's internal war has reached the breaking point. The war is not in the locker room, but in the management. Benitez is suffering from
Enough of the overt and covert fighting with General Manager Pitach, the two people were on the same page and ended this invisible war.
After Benitez left the famous saying "I asked for a sofa, but they bought me a lamp", he resolutely accepted Liverpool's sincere invitation. Next season, he will meet his old friend Aldridge again, and the camps will be in opposition!
chelsea
The reborn Chelsea had a season that could be considered a success in the eyes of outsiders, but an extreme failure internally.
They have steadily maintained the results of entering next season's Champions League, and at the same time reached the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. If it were Leeds United back then, such an achievement would have been recalled for ten years and called the pinnacle.
However, Chelsea spent more than 100 million pounds. In one season, Abramovich made acquisitions, paid off debts, renovated the stadium, improved the quality of infrastructure, introduced players, and paid wages. He almost spent nearly 500 million pounds!
Chelsea, on the other hand, has not won a single championship.
He now understands why when he wanted to buy Millwall, Andrew said that the price of one billion pounds was very fair.
Because Millwall is almost perfect, its operating income and expenses are not only balanced, but also slightly profitable. Its commercial development is ahead of its peers. The business chain with the Lion King Stadium as its core is making money day by day, and it is also fully developing business cooperation channels.
The most important thing is that in terms of investment in bringing in players, Millwall has a past, a present, and a future. In this investment, Millwall is at least three years ahead of its opponents. The savings are all money.
At that time, Abu thought it was too expensive, but he was too embarrassed to say it. Besides, Aldrich didn't want to sell it, so he borrowed the donkey from Poxia.
Now let's calculate this account again. If he wants to make Chelsea successful, he may have to invest more than 1 billion.
On the day when the Premier League season ended, Abramovich had already gone on vacation. He didn't care about the final result of Chelsea's league. Anyway, they can play in the Champions League next season.
While on vacation, he watched the live match between Millwall and Arsenal. After the game, he picked up the phone and called his new CEO.
It was only when Abramovich kept signing checks that he discovered that football was a bottomless pit. Chelsea was limited to the local Stamford Bridge. The business chain in Chelsea Village was relatively mature, but it was far from enough. So half a year ago, he hired Peter Kenyon from Manchester United.
, Kenyon is responsible for the transfer operations of Chelsea Club because last year
In the summer, Chelsea encountered obstacles in the transfer market. The behavior of the upstart layman was ridiculed by most of his colleagues. He needed professionals to do this job. At the same time, he also needed to use Kenyon's talents in business and marketing to strive to turn Chelsea into a new player.
Build a club that can supply its own blood and be self-sufficient.
Otherwise, if Abramovich continues to play like this, he himself will doubt how long he can last. If it were any other rich man, the money he spent on Chelsea in the past season would have been enough to bankrupt him.
After getting through the phone call with Kenyon, Abramovich wrote lightly: "This season is over, and the work for next season can begin."
The day after Millwall won the championship, major media outlets in Fleet Street focused on Millwall's "epic comeback", and Millwall suddenly stole the show.
But only one day later, another club took away the headlines.
who?
Chelsea!
"Chelsea made an offer of 80 million pounds for Henry! Offering a contract with a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds!"
All other clubs' seasons are over.
But not yet at Millwall.
They still have the Champions League final!
The players only had two days to rest. When he returned to the club on the third day, Henry was blocked by countless reporters outside the training base, asking him about the rumors about his move to Chelsea.
Henry did not avoid the media. To prepare for the game, the team must concentrate. With so many media speculating around him, this is not a good signal and is not good for the environment and atmosphere of the team's preparations.
So he lowered the window and answered reporters' questions calmly.
"I'm not going anywhere! I will complete the renewal of my new contract with the club soon. Please stop harassing me with such boring questions."
Yes, Millwall is on the agenda to renew the contracts of its players, and they will never be passive about this.
Henry trained as usual, and there was no soap opera. The dust settled the next day. Chelsea made a public offer, Millwall publicly rejected it, and the players also expressed their stance. There was nothing to continue to hype, and Chelsea would just be laughed at again.
However, before Fleet Street could mock Chelsea, another transfer news immediately hit the headlines.
"Chelsea openly bids for Ronaldinho, offering £60 million!"
Ronaldinho expressed the same attitude as Henry. He expressed his attitude when leaving the training and was very disgusted with Chelsea's actions.
"We are preparing for the Champions League final. Can Chelsea stop? Ah? Don't they even have any common sense to respect me? Who would go to that hell place at Chelsea? I said it a long time ago about my move to leave Millwall.
All the rumors are false. If every team wants me to transfer and leave, you have to ask me once, are you tired? I feel very tired! Goodbye! Oh, no, don’t say goodbye!" (To be continued)
