The Young Lion

In the new year and new weather, Millwall is still the focus of European football. One thing may not be noticeable at this time, but it made Aldridge pay attention to it for a moment.

The magic bird Mourinho wins Porto!

Coaching in Benfica ended in failure. Mourinho regrouped in Lia. He relied on the excellent record of more than half a year and was favored by the Portuguese superpowers. Agent Mendes also helped.

As soon as the news was over, Aldridge dropped his head and found that his mentality changed slightly. When he first crossed, he would feel that Mourinho and Guardiola are close to themselves. This is very close, not strength. It’s an impression, but as I walked through the late 1980s and 1990s, I felt that it was getting farther and farther away. Perhaps it was for him that the memory was getting farther and farther away.

If you think about it for a long time, when Magic Bird and Guardiola become famous, they have already laid a lot of high-profile foundations, and then come to face them. Of course, their mentality is different from before.

Even the Mesozoic coach An Pang is still not so brilliant.

The winter transfer window opens, and there are not many clubs that offer or ask for rent to Millwall. Most of the scandals between the giants are fabricated by the media. In the middle of the season, there are few heavy recruitments. The factors that contributed to the transfer, in addition to money, It also includes plans for both clubs throughout the season, that is to say, even if someone wants to buy Millwall stars at a high price, the offer is difficult to refuse, but for the second half of the season, Millwall also refuses to tempt. Perhaps the transfer fee income will be very high, but it will have a huge impact on the record of the second half of the season. The invisible loss may not be able to make up for the transfer fee.

However, the bids of some famous players for renting are really sincere, but Millwall's first-team personnel are compact this season, and they have just used them. There are no rich people on loan. Some unknown players in the reserve team are In the club phases of A and even England B, the club has given them a position for their future, and they will not hinder them. Studying with the prince is only a basic task. They can have a way out, and everyone is happy.

People come and go, the reserve team not only has huge personnel changes in summer, but also has frequent personnel changes in winter. This place itself belongs to the iron battalion platters. The players who have performed well in the reserve league for half a season have been low. The professional club at the level looks normal, and Millwall also regrets that these players with most of their abilities are second-rate players. Their youth training base can bring a batch of fresh blood at any time.

Compared with the sudden increase in the work of the reserve team, the first team is methodical, no one comes, no one walks, the winter transfer window seems to not exist for the first team.

The FA Cup battle reached the middle, the Premier League team joined the battle group, Millwall will be the guest to challenge Vegambi in the first game, and the large list of expeditions is naturally based on the bench.

In the training base, the pre-match preparation meeting within the team will be held after the training today, and the game will be enlisted tomorrow.

The lineup is well-organized, tactical training, everything is done step by step, Aldridge looks at the substitute line-up players hard training, hard-working attitude, he is very satisfied, I don’t know if it is because most of the players in the main line-up have already become famous, or because of their age, Instead, he now feels that he prefers players who are on the bench. At least his enthusiasm and enthusiasm are exciting.

Clapping his palms attracted the players' attention, and Audridge beckoned again, and the players took the initiative to stand in front of him.

The first team is in front of him, he said: "Tomorrow, those who did not enter the roster can now leave, bye."

Southgate, Nedved and others greeted their teammates before leaving.

There were 18 people left before this.

Aldridge glanced at the players in front of him, and finally fixed his sight on Ronaldo's face. His calm eyes fixed Ronaldo's heart.

The last time he played in the game, he was taught by Aldridge during the halftime break. It is estimated that he will remember his life.

Did you do something wrong today?

Ronaldo was so upset that he thought Aldridge might give him a vaccinating mind...

However, Aldrich reached into his pocket with his right hand and walked in front of him. With the other hand on his shoulder, Ronaldo only felt that his breathing had become suppressed.

He almost blurted out: Boss, give me a little face!

Here he is the youngest, and the most fond of stinky beauty, if he was taught by Aldrich in public, he would not know if he would get ill.

At his age, face is tantamount to dignity and cannot be violated.

In private, no matter what happens to the master and the disciples, this is confidential, and Ronaldo can accept it and make it public, which is hard to say.

Aldridge took something out of his pocket and put it in front of Ronaldo. He surprised Ronaldo. After seeing what was in Aldrich's hand, he realized that he was a false alarm, and his expression became fanatical. His eyes were bright, he couldn't help but raised his head up.

That's the captain's armband!

"Cristiano Ronaldo, this is the captain's armband of Millwall, do you want it?"

Aldridge asked as usual.

Ronaldo nodded quickly without concealment and shouted, "Boss, give me!"

"Okay, you have the confidence to own it, and I will give it to you. But you must understand the responsibility of being the captain!"

"Please rest assured, I will!"

Ronaldo's voice was louder.

In front of him, it is the armband of the captain of the European dynasty team, which is of extraordinary significance.

Aldridge looked around the other players and asked, "Does anyone disagree?"

Here are all substitute players. In fact, everyone knows that Ronaldo got the captain's armband, which is two concepts with the real captain.

Aldridge has never officially appointed captains other than Southgate, Nedved, Larson, and Materazzi.

The first three are the main team of the first team since they came to the team. The order is clear. Who can't play the three, and the person who succeeds will wear the captain's armband.

At the time, Materazzi was the captain of the substitute lineup, which was designated by Aldridge. After taking over into the main lineup a few years ago, the captain of the substitute liner was worn on Neil’s arm. If Neil was injured, the substitute lineup Playing a game, then whoever has the highest qualifications in the game, whoever wears the captain's armband, this is just a symbolic captain.

Neil is not considered to be deprived of the captain's armband, because in his eyes, he is always staring into the main lineup to start, rather than being the captain in the bench.

Here is just a transition.

But Ronaldo can be appointed by Aldridge personally, showing how much attention he receives, it is likely to be a candidate for the team captain in the true sense in the future!

Only De Rossi showed a faint expression of loss.

Starting from the low-level youth team, De Rossi is the captain and the captain when he plays in the reserve team. He entered the first team earlier than Ronaldo, but Aldridge handed the captain's armband to Ronaldo.

Aldridge made this decision after careful consideration.

After the last game in Ronaldo, there were many topics surrounding him. The outside world praised him very high, such as the next big star of the mad lion, but his fancy extra personal performances in the game were Audrey Wonderful and disgusting.

In the final analysis, Cristiano Ronaldo has not yet combined technology and practicality to perfection. Even if these two points are combined to perfection, it must be integrated with the team's technical and tactical skills.

If he is allowed to continue to develop like this, the freshness of the fans will soon pass, and gradually found that this kid plays beautiful and good-looking, but does not contribute much to the team, and sometimes even the reaction, then he will be hit "Flashy" label.

This road was taken by Ronaldo when he was at Manchester United.

Aldrich couldn't give Ronaldo a special "7" jersey like Ferguson, even if it was not what Ronaldo requested.

Millwall does not have a shirt number with a heritage color. Maybe there will be in the future. Even if there are many outstanding players in the contemporary era, even if a dynasty collapses, not only memories but inheritance will be left to future generations.

But Aldridge must patiently guide Ronaldo to avoid his detours. The decision he made was to give him the captain’s armband. Although it was not to make him the captain of the first team, as long as he came on the bench, he also appeared. The captain.

Captain means a lot, the most important thing is the sense of team responsibility.

Aldridge feels that such guidance is far more meaningful than Manchester United’s No. 7 jersey.

At Manchester United, the owner of the No. 7 jersey, unless it is the captain, can not override the captain, still have to listen to the captain, otherwise the following is committed!

The dignity of the football circle is similar to feudalism.

To make Ronaldo the captain is to let him shoulder more shoulders, especially when he is in the game. As a captain, the first thing he wants to think of is to win and lead the team to win, not to perform personally, to play personally, and the team wins far. Far more important than personal victory!

There was no objection. Aldridge handed the captain's armband to Ronaldo. He took it and put it on his arm with excitement. The waist was straightened.

"Okay, go to the meeting room."

At the command of Aldrich, the players first went to the locker room to take a shower and change clothes, and then gathered in the conference room to listen to the pre-match preparation meeting hosted by the coaching staff, formulate tactics for tomorrow’s battle, analyze the opponent’s technical and tactical focus, and perform a series of The layout and the remaining time is left to the players to digest themselves.

Aldridge will never do this work 30 minutes before the start of the game, which is not very effective. Players will not be able to converge without a process of thought digestion and thinking. Sometimes, this is also the standard for Aldridge to check the professional attitude of players. .

Some players may have made a small mistake in the preparation meeting before the game, and their thoughts are not concentrated. The next day they played in a mess and were out of touch with the team. Then, they can know that this player did not listen to the coaching team's pre-game arrangements.

Today's pre-match preparation time is not long, less than 15 minutes, because the opponent Wegambi is not strong, the opponent's technical and tactical characteristics are not outstanding, Millwall's main thing is to arrange targeted deployment of offense.

In the end, Ronaldo is still a hairy boy under 17 years old, and he changed his clothes after taking a shower. He still wears the captain's armband. It is estimated that he will wear it home, and he will definitely take a few photos to share with his family.

The pre-match preparations were over and the players left one after another. Aldridge stopped De Rossi and smiled at him: "Come and eat at my house at night."

De Rossi promised to come down, the two went to the parking lot together, Aldridge drove a car, De Rossi drove a prince motorcycle, he is also in the young age of love, it’s okay At that time, I would cross the market with some friends on a motorcycle, or it might be the way to attract attention.

However, if he travels with Aguero Messi, basically no girl will come to talk with him, because it feels like he is taking two younger brothers out to play...
