The Young Lion

The grudges between Arthur and Bates are well known among the Premier League club presidents. Arthur and Arsenal vice chairman Dane are not dealing with it. On the list of Arthur’s hatred, the third place is Edwards, but he Some look down on Manchester United's old pervert, because as soon as he rolls up his sleeves, the other party immediately turns into an egg.

Manchester United and Arsenal have found various reasons to exclude Millwall since they were promoted to the Premier League last year. In addition to the small stadium and poor reputation, the most important reason is that Millwall has obtained Millwall through family power. With more broadcast sharing, Millwall not only challenges the traditional forces of the old English Premier League in competition, but also infringes on the big head share that belongs to them in terms of economic interests.

But Millwall spent two seasons closing Manchester United and Arsenal's mouth, which in turn was replaced by Arthur's cynicism about Dane: When will Highbury expand? Oh, it seems that there are residential houses around, there is no room for expansion?

To Edwards is just a lazy gesture, as long as the other party does not provoke, Arthur does not want to have any intersection with the old pervert, as if the other party is covered with **** from head to toe to make him feel sick.

As for Bates, apart from the fact that everyone is a dead enemy, the most important thing is that Arthur can't stand Bates's arrogant attitude. He knows that Chelsea has nothing. Instead, he thinks he is doing great things.

Bates was a speculative businessman, and he was notorious before becoming the club’s chairman. In the European financial circle, he has made several investment investments, ranging from millions to tens of millions of pounds. In short, the **** is not clean. .

Football is a very closed circle. The independence of the FA makes it no matter how fierce the internal battles are. If there are external forces to intervene in football, they will be strongly rejected by them, regardless of whether they are black or white.

Bates has the status of the Premier League club and was able to leave the past clean. His debt to invest in Chelsea is also controversial, but it is difficult for the outside to investigate his club’s operation. Not only the Football Association Rejection, the Premier League will also oppose the investigation, because every club has behind the scenes a basket of dirty and shady transactions.

Bates, a smart and cunning businessman, not only built his ideal and magnificent Chelsea village, but also provoked war to increase his popularity. Before confronting Arthur, his opponent was Dane, but Arsenal has been in these years. The recent situation is not good, so he turned his gun and aimed at Millwall, anyway, the original hatred of the two clubs is enough to cause a topic.

Arthur was sitting next to Bates, enjoying the wine and waiting for the game to start, while Bates was sullen and said nothing.

"Old bastard, I heard that you recently publicly questioned the source of the Hall's assets? Ha ha ha, I heard a joke of a thief crying to catch a thief."

Arthur held the glass of wine with a tepid tone and a slightly feminine expression that seemed strange and unpredictable.

Bates jumped in his heart. He was unscrupulous. When attacking Dane, he hired a private detective to investigate the other party. It was his turn to open fire with Arthur, and he reapplied.

He made remarks to the media, questioning whether the Hall’s financial resources could cover the financial expenditures of the magnificent new stadium. At the same time, he also hinted that the Hall’s family had changed from selling glass to being a billionaire in ten years. What's so greasy?

Arthur did not squint and continued to say lightly: "Business matters, Bates, I'm not as good as you, and I don't care about these, my three sons are in control, but, if you want to play this method, we It’s fun, I’m also curious about Chelsea’s financial situation, where did you get so much money to buy players and pay high wages, your Chelsea village, all day monk, are you really making money? Ha ha ha, I asked my eldest son, he Tell me, in the European business circle, there are still quite a few of our Hall friends. I think, you can get a lot of inside information. Do you really want to play? Do you dare to play? Can you afford it?"

Bett oozed cold sweat from his forehead and gritted his teeth: "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings!"

He probably remembered it at this time. He used to play around and it was only a million-million pound capital game, and the Hall family had more than 200 million pounds in assets three years ago, and in these three years , Wealth growth is still a jaw-dropping rate.

Due to the connections within the circle, the Hall's reputation is well-known, and he is not much different from the mouse crossing the street.

Arthur sipped and smiled: "Misunderstanding? Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, alas, if you are gone, I might feel lonely."

What he said was like a joke, but there was another idea in his mind: According to Bates, Chelsea's debt is getting higher and higher, no record, wait for bankruptcy...

In the guest locker room at Wembley Stadium, Aldridge stood with his arms around his chest.

"Everyone knows that today is our last game of the season. I believe you will take this game seriously with 300%. However, I want to talk about two points. The first point is the mentality. Double-playing Chelsea in the league, this may make you underestimate the enemy. Now I will give you a minute to ask yourself if you have thought in your mind: Chelsea? Your defeat, the victory will be captured!"

The players looked at each other, looking at Aldridge's cold face, and some players suddenly lowered their heads in shame.

Many people do think so.

The traditional three giants of England were double-killed by them. They just defeated the La Liga giants Barcelona in the European Winners' Cup. They asked the same question from 10,000 neutral fans: who is better at Chelsea or Barcelona? More than 9,000 fans will say: Barcelona, ​​the remaining fans will ask: Who is Chelsea?

The answer is obvious. According to this reasoning, Millwall played 4:1 in Barcelona. Isn't playing Chelsea like cutting vegetables?

Aldridge didn’t have a light face. He knew that today’s game had a lot of disadvantages for Millwall. The fans in the stands cheered unevenly. On the one hand, competitive factors include players who have just returned from the Netherlands. They Just like Barcelona, ​​the body will be tired, and after a battle, especially after winning, the mentality will be a bit floating.

"Give you two more minutes, you have forgotten the double-game Chelsea game in your mind, recalling the two league games we lost this season, a cup game, and seven unwinnable draws! Recall these games carefully, Think about it, are those opponents stronger than us? Why haven’t we won?"

The players now understood Aldridge's intentions, became mentally solemn, and looked serious, and put away all contempt.

Aldridge continued: "You basically all experienced the two cups we won last season. Do you remember our mentality at that time? We almost let the trophy be taken away by Aston Villa because of our mentality It’s more anxious to play, and the urgent mentality of holding the cup affects our performance. Today, Chelsea is also the same. Their last trophy was the European Cup of Winners 26 years ago, and the FA Cup was 27 years ago. Therefore, they are close to In the blank period of the trophy for thirty years, the heart is extremely hungry and the mentality is very urgent. Not only do they want to prove that they are better than us, they also hope to become the starting point of the club's glory, but we will not give them a chance! This is what I want to talk about The second point: our gesture!"

The players stared up at Aldridge and nodded seriously.

The same is the final, but Aldridge does not always talk about honor and spirit with players.

Stereotypes are sometimes meaningless and have different effects.

Millwall is the defending champion of the FA Cup. The players have won this honor. He has already started two trophies this season, plus the advantage of the past record against Chelsea. If Aldridge is only language content, it will palely boost the morale of the players. It is estimated that it does not have much effect.

Like his tactical layout, he will patiently let the players understand why he wants to play like this and what effect the tactics will have. Only when the players understand themselves can they better implement the tactical philosophy.

"We are more tired than Chelsea, there is no doubt that we do not need to lie to ourselves. We played a fierce game two days ago. You have an unbeatable performance. If you want to replicate the performance two days ago today, I think at least from the run It's impossible to move. Don't think that this is me attacking you, stimulating you, no, I'm just telling the truth. I don't want you to put pressure on yourself to force yourself, it might hurt you instead. The whole world will attack. There are countless teams. Our tactical system is very mature. You have also played well in offensive routines. However, I hope to see your mature side and the more mature side of the whole team!"

Everyone was curious to hear Aldridge say this, Nedved asked: "Boss, what should I do?"

Being more mature means that they become better, and no one wants to make themselves better.

Aldridge said lightly: "A team that can attack is not terrible. What is terrible is a team that can clearly attack at will but knows how to be tolerant. I mean, we have to control from the overall situation and from the whole game. The game, not the pursuit of periodical bursts, this is the dominance! When we have sufficient physical energy, we can oppress our opponents in the whole game, but when our physical fitness does not have an advantage? We also have to win the ball, and win makes the opponent despair, This morning's tactical arrangement, many of you may think that I am too cautious. I don’t think so. I think it’s time for you to understand what a real top team is. We can’t rely on one momentum to win. What is the real strong team to win with explosive power? When you are in good shape, you can win beautiful, when you are in bad shape, even if the game is not good-looking, you can win! This is the real strong, let All the opponents who are trembling and desperate, even if we are clearly at a disadvantage, let the opponents have no choice but to watch us take away the victorious strong!"

In the locker room, all players were shocked.

Looking at Aldridge with a firm expression, they felt incredible, shocked, and a wonderful feeling rose in their hearts.

If you are in a good state, you will win beautifully, and if you are in a bad state, you can take away the victory.

Who is not willing to be such a strong man?

There is no need for everyone to deceive themselves into thinking that the player will be in the best state every game. The player's state has ups and downs, either because of his body or his mind, and there are thousands of reasons for his bad state anyway.

But if they can win even when they are not in their best condition, this will obviously make them more mature and more dominant on the court.

"Today, you will play such a dominant game, and I firmly believe that you can do it."

After Aldridge finished speaking, he turned and left the locker room.
