The Young Lion

Aldridge kindly greeted Najib who was directly transferred from Turkey to London in London. He is a bachelor with a two-sleeved breeze, but obviously his seemingly wooden head is full of football wisdom.

Najib entered the Millwall club as a youth training supervisor and head coach of the youth team. He quickly entered a state and had a general understanding of Millwall's youth team.

When the players reported back to the club from the national team, Najib knocked on the door of Aldridge's office. Najib, who had always been stiff and steady, was excited, and his hands pressed on Aldridge's desk, excited: " Aldridge, I have never seen such a talented child, they are far superior to players of the same age!"

Aldridge smiled with one hand on his chin: "Who are you talking about?"

Najib sat down and opened the notebook, and the names one by one spit out from his mouth.

Joe Cole, Villa, Capdevila, Ashley Cole, Pirlo and so on.

During this time, players under the age of 20 will be transferred to the youth team to train with the team, such as Lampard, Ferdinand naturally shocked Najib.

He even believes that Millwall's youth team, as long as it fills a few positions, the overall strength can be stronger than the Hungarian national team.

Of course, this also has the effect of flowers and green leaves.

Millwall’s youth team is recruiting new players all the time. Children who are willing to come to training will be absorbed into the team as long as they pass some assessments. Aldridge lowered the standard of this assessment to a little low, because Millwall itself The attraction is not enough. In order to allow the youth team to have enough "playing with the prince reading" role players, it is natural to lower the threshold. In the future, as Millwall's fame increases, the threshold will naturally increase.

Najib was very excited. He talked about the characteristics of these players, their positions on the field, their roles in the game, their roles in different formations, different tactical systems, and so on.

"Aldrich, young players like Ferdinand and Lampard, should not be buried in the youth team, you should let them into the first team."

"They were originally the first team, but they didn't enter the national team, the National Youth team has not played recently, so they stayed in the club and trained with the youth team. Slowly, slowly, Najib, listen to me, You just know about Millwall’s youth team, but you don’t know about Millwall’s first team. Listen to me. Don’t worry. You first watch a few first team games. Premier League games. At that time, if you think youth Who can enter the first team and quickly squeeze out the main force and substitute players to become important players, then, I will seriously consider your suggestions."

Aldridge made Najib restless and Najib also understood that he believed Aldridge's vision was impossible to do the stupid thing of riding a donkey to find a donkey.

"Then talk about my job. Although many players have good talents, they can avoid detours in their growth to improve as soon as possible. The first is the tactical system of the youth team, and the second is their position on the field."

Aldridge nodded solemnly, agreeing with each other's claims.

In fact, there are a lot of talented players who are not able to kick out. The big reason is the growth environment. For example, a smart technical player, in a tactical system that emphasizes strength, his expertise can not be played, it is difficult to improve , And the wrong position on the court will make the players unable to find the feeling, and eventually lost.

Aiming at Millwall's existing youth players, Aldridge and Najib discussed each other and made detailed plans for their professional lives.

In mid-to-late September, the league battle reignited. Before the arrival of November, Aldridge led the team to play six league games and two league cups, because the league cup is the main game, and there are three games in the Premier League. The rotation team played, among the six league opponents, there are the same city opponents like Tottenham, but also Coventry, Manchester City, such relegation popular.

With three wins and three draws, Millwall has maintained an unbeaten gold body since the start of the league.

However, he was furious after the game with Wimbledon, because the opponent's Winnie Jones hurt Schneider in the first minute, and Aldridge roared in the heart of the British villain and the future British movie star. : You **** has no future, hurry up and make a movie!

And his shelling made Aldridge a target, because he was not against the Wimbledon club, and the opponent's playing was notoriously rough.

Aldridge blamed the English football style, Wimbledon is a bit innocent, because they are not the first to use rough tactics, in the 1980s, the British football began a popular tactic: a foul to open the first Deter opponents!

Under the influence of such foul tactics, it will create a strong psychological pressure on the opponent, so as to gain the initiative of the game.

Wimbledon is so poor that it can only rent the stadium of Crystal Palace for many years. Millwall is not as honorable as Wimbledon. Both teams are still opponents in the same city, but Aldridge really wants to take Wimbledon in his eyes, which is a bit cheap. .

The chairman of the family said pitifully that a United Nations fan souvenir shop has a higher annual income than Wimbledon club!

Aldridge couldn't make it any more important to place Wimbledon.

Therefore, he aimed at England's tactics that have not yet disappeared and bombarded the rough rogues of English football!

This has attracted a lot of criticism from the famous people, thinking that Aldridge has just played a few good games before starting to know nothing about it.

Yes, Millwall performed well and remained undefeated in 12 games this season.

But you, Aldridge, are not yet qualified to blame English football!

In particular, Millwall is still a long way from the top team in the league, so don't **** smug!

Of those famous criticisms, Aldridge didn't care about anything, but one thing was right, he couldn't refute anything.

The standings clearly told everyone that Millwall had a huge gap with the leader.

Newcastle United this season is against the sky. In the first 12 rounds of the league, they have achieved 10 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. Millwall has 6 wins and 6 draws. Although they are second in the league, they can be different from Newcastle United. 7 points.

In the 13th round of the league, Millwall again visited Merseyside and faced a draw on the road. It was not until the last five minutes that Millwall threw Everton thrillingly.

Newcastle United won the game again, Kevin Keegan became the most popular coach in the Premier League. Although Manchester United overcame Millwall by one point, they are still 8 points behind Newcastle United!

Aldridge didn’t have time to look at the standings, he didn’t care at all. If he tried his best to compete for the league title this season, he would be nervous, but he didn’t want Millwall’s first Premier League season to put pressure on the team. As for the qualification for the European War, unless you get the league title, there will be no Champions League to play, there is no need to struggle with the second or third place.

In front of him, there is a game more important than the championship!
