Chapter 1152: Encountered a pseudo "dream two"

After Chelsea defeated the Lion King Stadium, the voice from Stamford Bridge was: When will Mourinho finish class?
The excellent situation of the league in the new season was lost in the middle of the half. Millwall reversed Chelsea strongly, from backward to leading, which is an amazing gap of 14 points!
Abu apparently exhausted Mourinho's patience.
However, if the team coach is sacked in the middle of the season, even if Abu thinks that the league has basically no play, but Chelsea has the Champions League, the impact of the change of coaching on Chelsea may be equal to completely burying all the fronts of the season.
After all, in this Chelsea formation, Mourinho’s heirs do not have the main force like Carvalho Ferreira, but also include the players introduced after he took office, Drogba, Essien, Cech and other players have relations with him Superb, if Mourinho left, no matter who the next coach is, if you want to control the locker room, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve perfection in a short time.
Under the leadership of Aldridge, Millwall steadily moved forward after adjusting to the best state in the new season. The morale encouragement from the victory over Chelsea was very obvious, so that they did not lose 1 point in the Christmas Devil schedule and won the victory. Record!
Stepping into 2006, Aldridge's days were in order, and the Millwall team didn't need a coaching staff to remind them, and entered the preoccupied rhythm in advance.
More conscious than before.
For Millwall, the goal set for this season is very realistic. Although it seems far away, the players are all looking there: the second three consecutive Champions League!
There is a World Cup in the summer, and there will be a UEFA presidential election at the end of the year.
In January, the FA Cup started, and the bench lineup, which had been adjusted for rest some time ago, began to explode. From the beginning of joining the FA Cup team, it has been on the whole road. It has faced non-English Premier League teams and has won more than 4 goals in a single game. 'S big score games appear frequently!
Nedved, Larsen and other veterans are leading the maturation of the substitute players, Verroso, Moutinho, Messi's growth is obvious to all, before ushering in the end of February Champions League knockout, Millwall must be reasonably allocated Player fitness, like Aguero, will occasionally be transferred to the first team to play for about 20 minutes.
Before the arrival of the Champions League 1/8 finals, Millwall has extended his lead to 6 points in the Premier League. In the past six Premier League games, Millwall has won 3 and 3, and the results are not particularly good. Their first half The terror streak that started in the middle of the season was also ended at this time. Chelsea, who was not in the second place in the standings, as expected, during the start of the African Cup in January, the team's league results fluctuated. They Winning 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, Millwall had a draw more than them, so the points gap increased by 1 point.
After the FIFA game day in mid-February, England played the FA Cup schedule on the weekend. Millwall sent a full substitute to win the game, and then quietly waited for the opponents of the Champions League 1/8 final to visit the Lion King Stadium.
The result of the draw was announced long ago.
Millwall vs Barcelona!
Most of the outside media commented on the lottery results in anticipation of such a giant showdown, but the Catalan media screamed for Barcelona!
The Champions League's own group draw system is protecting the interests of the giants. As long as the giants steadily get the results that match their strength, the probability of encountering a strong team in the 1/8 knockout will be relatively low.
It's like, if Millwall won the group first, they wouldn't be able to win the same Barcelona in another group.
However, Millwall ranked second in the group stage, allowing Inter Milan to get the group first.
In fact, Millwall doesn’t care. It doesn’t matter who draws. It’s right to play as usual. This is not only Aldridge’s mentality, but also a consensus among Millwall’s players. This mentality is from stress to perseverance for many years. , Shaped by time precipitation.
Therefore, the Catalan media cannot openly accuse Millwall of being indifferent: it is shameful to have the strength of the group first, but not to strive for the group first.
They attacked Millwall with the same view and position as UEFA, and again said Millwall lacked respect for the Champions League.
Damn, if you go all out in the group stage, can Inter Milan take the first place in the group?
Don't joke, you will burn high fragrance without being double-killed by Millwall!
Now it's okay, Barcelona will face the European king in the 1/8 final, defending champion Millwall.
At the pre-match press conference, Aldridge was only routinely interviewed, and did not want to pinch against the media, no matter what his position was.
In fact, in addition to the local media, namely Fleet Street, Aldridge can ignore the media of other countries or regions.
After all, external attention is always temporary.
Just like the Catalan media is now staring at Millwall, what does it mean for Aldridge to pinch with them?
After the 1/8 finals, no matter what the result is, basically there has been no intersection for a long time. The verbal dispute is like a shrew cursing the street.
It is because Fleet Street has a continuous influence in the homeland. Once Aldridge started fighting with the media, most of the opponents were Fleet Street. There is no way to allow Fleet Street to continue to exert public influence.
On February 23, the Lion King Stadium was full.
Tonight the breeze is blowing, the sky is not particularly clear, Millwall ushered in the challenge of Barcelona at home.
Aldridge felt as if he was still in the water and encountered today's Barcelona. Of course, there was no excitement against the "Dream II in History".
At least now Barcelona, ​​lack of a core player in the original history: Ronaldinho.
However, without Ronaldinho, it does not mean that the team is worthless. The strength of the same period will have an impact, but the gap may be the distance between the peak and the first-class middle and upper. Under the black swan Rijkaard, the new generation of Barcelona players he vigorously cultivated is Iniesta.
Speaking of course, there is of course Adrige’s credit. On the one hand, Ronaldinho is in Millwall, and on the other hand, many years ago, Adrici tried to "in solemnly" introduce Iniesta from Barcelona.
This made Barcelona very vigilant. In addition to rejecting Millwall’s official purchase, he also paid more attention to Iniesta. After Rijkaard took office, he began to train Iniesta into the main player and served as the first team. More important role, more than two years of hardening, although the little white Iniesta has not yet reached the peak, but also has good combat effectiveness.
Rijkaard did not like London. Last season, he led his team to the city, just west of the Lion King Stadium, another famous stadium in the city. He led the team to play against Chelsea, and the result almost made him wise. Ruined, bearing the vicious charge of
affecting the referee to secretly control the game
.
When I came to the Lion King Stadium today, it was an unprecedented tremendous pressure that haunted my heart.
Stepping into this top court, and seeing the young man standing at the sideline of the court with a friendly look at him, Rijkaard involuntarily walked over, and the two reached out to each other, just a simple greeting and a polite conversation , But there is a sense of sight.
Aldridge and Rijkaard have no grudges, at least he doesn’t hate Barcelona, ​​and as the host, he takes the demeanor to greet the guests, which is not wrong.
Rijkaard belongs to a rather regrettable role in his eyes, not specifically when the locker room in the original historical dream two crashed into chaos, but that Rijkaard almost succeeded in the 2000 European Cup.
During the European Championship, the Dutch team, one of the hosts, led to the semi-finals under the leadership of Rijkaard, and then something sad happened.
The Dutch players stood in front of the penalty spot 6 times and lost the penalty 5 times!
Achieved the "Santo Dorto Miracle" of Liufang Baishi.
The longer he is coach, the more Adrige feels sorry for Rijkaard.
Such a situation really makes the head coach helpless!
6 penalties, 5 penalty penalties, and a chance to solve the battle within the regular time, but let Italy escape a miraculous performance.
Aldridge returned to his familiar position in the stadium, waiting for the game to begin.
Regarding encounters with Barcelona, ​​there must be pressure. Millwall is not strong enough to face Barcelona and has the same mentality as playing an ordinary team, but the more pressure, the more it will make players and coaches more excited.
Abuse of food cannot be a god!
The more the king, in fact, the deeper the heart, the more they look forward to the challenging game, which is their driving force, the difference is that perhaps the ordinary team encounters such pressure, although it may seem on the surface how challenging and exciting The motivation of the self may be a fearful feeling deep in the heart, and it is also tempting to die on the court, but it is not good enough.
But after all, Rijkaard is not one of Aldridge’s most anticipated opponents in this era. The Barcelona he coaches is more like a product that is in line with the Dutch football philosophy. It is nice and elegant, offensive football, not good. In other words, in fact, Rijkaard kept trying a good hand to play a strategy, then found the best strategy, and then fixed it.
Although Barcelona was recognized as beautiful and elegant during this period, the offense was like a cloud in the sky, and it was vague, but in the end, as Rijkaard represented in the height of football: that's it.
Compared with the later Guardiola, it is possible to present the "advantages" on the football field to the world in a three-dimensional manner, bringing about subversive changes, and truly raising the football style to the point of substantial ideas. What is Rijkaard's style? It's just that some popular modified definitions, placed on other coaches, will also work.
This is Barcelona. It is by no means constant for two decades. Each period has different characteristics. It is not really an inevitable qualitative change brought about by perseverance.
