Chapter 810: Wash away the dark blue, see you again

The bells of the World Cup countdown are ringing every second, and the four-year global football feast is about to be opened in anticipation.
On the eve of this, Europe and Milan, Italy, took the lead in detonating a wave of passion among Italian fans.
The sun is shining and there are crowds of people outside the airport lobby. Fans hold a variety of slogans. The words that appear most are: Welcome home!
When a group of people walked out of the airport, cheers burst out louder and louder and louder!
In the security of the airport, inside the guard of the private bodyguard, a group of people walked out slowly.
Before the Italian national team went to Asia, Pirlo, Gattuso, Materazzi and Zambrotta took leave for half a day to leave the national team training base and turned to Milan.
The four are dressed casually and smartly, even Gattuso, and they have the charm of an alternative iron man. The men's suits and shoes walking next to the four are Aldridge's brother Andrew. Behind them, there is Millwall Club negotiating team, and Andrew's agent team.
When the four people walked out, cheers came and went.
The fans who came here to greet them were divided into two groups. The fans of the Milan duo, they clearly welcomed their new aid.
In front of everyone cheered, people worshiped, so that the four people were filled with emotion.
When I thought of leaving Italy and going to England, they were obscured. They didn’t pay attention to them. They seemed to be labelled by the Italian media as the death penalty, and their careers were no longer promising, because they left Italy, left European football, world football. Peak stage!
However, seven or eight years later, they returned here as if they were saviors. They were about to join two of Italy's traditional three giants and were expected to return Italian football to the top of Europe!
The welcome team sent by AC Milan and Inter Milan has already parked the car outside, opened the door, and waited for the star to sign in.
The four stars who were cheered by the crowd stopped in front of the car, turned around and looked at each other. The slightly empty deserted airport hall seemed to be a phantom figure.
The eyes of the four people were faint, and it seemed that they saw a person with a tall and magnificent shore staring at them away. That was the "head" they called for seven or eight years.
There was no farewell between them, and they did not even meet after the Champions League final. Only Andrew sent a letter to them in Italy.
The contents of the letters of the four people are the same, a beautiful photo, which is a group photo of the Millwall team and the coach after the Champions League final. They smile innocently, and each player with a medal on his neck tries to distance himself from Audrey Qi was closer, surrounded by him. Behind the photo, there was a handwritten word.
treasure!
Aldridge didn't try to keep them anymore, didn't make sense with emotion, let go freely, didn't make the tumultuous transfer into a soap opera that everyone hated.
This makes the relationship between the four and Millwall and Aldridge more special and transcendent.
Italy's arrogant son, returned to the motherland, back to the arms of his hometown fans, back to the land where they are more familiar and free, but they know that in this life, there is a brand in their hearts that has become sacred.
Before the separation, Gattuso Pirlo, the two turned around, Materazimbrotta, the two also turned around, the four hugged each other.
"Goodbye."
Materazzi said first.
"Are you sure? I think it's better not to meet again outside the national team."
Pirlo smiled.
Zambrotta said: "You are afraid."
Pirlo dragged Gattuso and said, "With him, what am I afraid of?"
Gattuso shrugged and said, "He's mixed with me, I can bully him, you can't."
Materazzi turned into the car, leaving a word.
"You just need to pack up first."
Pirlo and Gattuso bowed their heads and smiled, and they also turned into the car.
Four people dialed two and left by car.
All four of them knew clearly that the club career turned upside down today.
Washing away the sacred navy in their eyes, Gattuso and Pirlo walked into the red and black, the foothold was called San Siro, Zambrotta and Matera wrapped in blue and black, and the stage under the sky was called Meazza .
Although it is the same battlefield, if the four meet again, no longer a brother fighting side by side, no longer a comrade-in-arms, it is bound to meet the swordsmen and fight against the Milan Derby!
The crowd outside the airport dispersed. Not only did the fans chase all the way, but the streets also had media helicopter reports.
"It is less than a week before the opening of the World Cup, but at this time, the two giants of Milan City, AC Milan and Inter Milan will announce the signing of a heavy contract. We live report on the four stars who have played Millwall for more than 5 years. , Materazzi, Zambrotta will go to the Inter Milan Club for medical examinations, Pirlo and Gattuso will go to the AC Milan Club for medical examinations, and the transfer will go to this step, indicating that the two clubs and Premier League giant Millwall The transfer negotiations have reached an agreement. I believe that the transfer fees of the four players will be astronomical. Perhaps the madness of the transfer market last summer will continue this summer, and it will be the Italian transfer market that is still storming. It will still be Italy!"
The physical examination process of the four players was partially opened by the two clubs at the same time, and Italian fans quickly saw photos of their bodybuilding muscles and smiling thumbs up during the physical examination.
Half a day later, Inter Milan took the lead in announcing the transfer of heavy news.
"Matrazzi and Zambrotta join Inter Milan and the transfer fee is £60 million!"
AC Milan announced the result of the transfer signing.
"Pirlo and Gattuso joined AC Milan with a transfer fee of £70 million!"
Fans in the city of Milan cheered, Inter Milan reinforced the defense, AC Milan has the first European midfielder combination.
In London, Millwall officially confirmed the transfer of the four players later, and published an open letter to the fans after the four parted on the official website.
The crazy lion fans had a shocking day.
The news of the transfer market was buoyant before, and they were reluctant to write letters, because in the past many years, these news will appear every time during the transfer, but not once has become a reality, but this time, not only rumors come true, but also directly Four main players leave on the same day!
In this scene, like the summer of 1998, the main force of Millwall's half team was divided by European powerhouses!
After the fans were shocked, they accepted the reality calmly. Most of the fans were grateful for the four people who had contributed to Millwall in the past. I wish them a smooth sailing after returning to Italy. The fans are not too worried about the future because they have Aldridge!
"The new season has not yet arrived, Millwall first pocketed 130 million pounds!"
Millwall's ability to make money is too ruthless!
The cost of these four players coming to the team at that year is almost zero. It is understandable that which team does not pay the players?
Therefore, it can be said that Millwall made a net profit of 130 million pounds!
This is also in line with the impression given by Millwall to the outside world, it is simply a model of the club that combines sports and management in the world today!
It was also Aldridge’s idea to finalize the transfer of the players before the World Cup, and when the transfer was announced, the team was still flying to Japan. In this way, he avoided the harassment of Fleet Street when the plane landed At that time, he has completely entered the role of national team coach, and will no longer respond to any questions about the club.
On the other hand, it also minimizes the negative public opinion impact of the four-member general leaving the team. Immediately to the World Cup, the eyes of the world will focus on South Korea and Japan. Fleet Street will not speculate on the transfer news of Millwall, giving the fans a buffer. Space, after the World Cup is over, the news of the four-person transfer has long been outdated, and everyone accepts it.
The England national team went directly to Japan on this trip, because all their games will be played in Japan. According to the situation after the grouping, the group stage is all in the Japanese division. Even if it enters the knockout stage, the future games will also be played in Japan.
An hour before the plane arrived in Japan, the atmosphere on the plane was not as warm as it was when the expedition.
The flight time from London to Japan is a bit gruesome. Everyone still has a jet lag. The body cannot be said to be uncomfortable, but it will eventually be uncomfortable.
The players are busy with their own affairs on the plane, some people listen to music, some people read books, and some people whisper chat.
Papa!
Aldridge clapped his hands in the aisle of the plane, attracting the players' attention.
Joe Cole shoved Rooney who was still snoring. Rooney opened his eyes and rubbed, saw Aldridge facing everyone in the aisle, so he cheered up and stood tall.
Aldridge's expression was serious, and he looked around all players and then said in a deep voice: "When the plane landed and we got off the plane, our World Cup journey officially began!"
The players stopped the other movements and listened attentively, then their eyes became firm involuntarily.
Aldridge continued: "When we set off, there were voices outside the world that set goals for us, and some people gave us pressure relief, saying that we are young and do our best. But I want to tell you that when we set foot on Japan After the land, when we really walked onto the stage of the World Cup, our goal is only one: to win the championship!"
Win the championship!
Aldrich said the floor was slamming, the players were breathless, and some people showed incredible colors.
They dare not think, they can't believe it, the coach in front of them would actually say such things.
Aldridge looked at Owen and said with a deep voice: "Without the goal of winning the championship, we cannot go to the Hercules Cup!"
Irving couldn't help nodding.
Aldridge looked at Beckham again and said, "Without the conviction to win the championship, we can't explode beyond our level of fighting power!"
Beckham nodded firmly, the ray of victory in his eyes grew stronger.
Aldrich opened his hands and said, "Our goal is to be a champion. This is something you should keep in mind at all times! Why? If you don’t step on that stage with firm conviction, you might give up halfway, just I will tell myself: Enough is enough, I can perform well, I can explain to the fans, the top eight, the top four, for me at this age, it may already be a great achievement! Wrong, wrong, wrong! What Is it hard to go further? What is the goal of reaching the top 8 even if the goal is reached? What is it that we are still young and a temper? F! Yes, we are young, yes, we are not optimistic, yes. But, why can’t we be the champion? Why can’t we? Why? I tell you all, can we be! Hard? Hard! But just win In the next 7 games, we are the world champion! If you have such ambitions, such desire to conquer, and possessive desire to hold the hands of the Hercules Cup tightly! We are crawling, we are kneeling, we are With a broken head and a broken leg, we can also reach the top of the world!"
The players on the scene were thoroughly engulfed, and the youngest Rooney stood up and clenched his fists and shouted: "I want the World Cup!"
The other players also got up and nodded slightly to each other with a slight expression.
At this moment, they swept away all their different ideas about the World Cup and firmly told themselves: Champion! Go for the championship! If you are not the champion, why not go!
The most infected among them was Terry. He also stood up and shouted. It’s hard not to be affected by the atmosphere here. He can feel that he is closer to all his teammates because everyone has the same goal. As if Aldrich's three words made everyone condense from different parts into a whole that is difficult to split.
And this is a kind of ability and courage that he can't feel in Ranieri. Ranieri is a good coach in his heart, but in terms of ability, Aldridge's impact is more profound and more profound. Shock effect.
You can't help but sell his life for him, fight for him, listen to his command, accept all his arrangements, Aldridge is like a mad missionary, has a magic power that is tempting, and this is what a powerful team needs!
