Chapter 378: Lucky gunman


Before Christmas, Millwall defeated relegation team Everton 3:0 at home, Ronaldinho became the protagonist in the game, and in the absence of Nedved, Aldridge still posed The formation of 442, but Ronaldinho's role on the field changed from a full-back to a midfielder, activating Fanny and Henry on the front line. In the game, he made two shots and became the best player in the game.
After the game, Aldridge was interviewed in the mixed area. Ronaldinho did not return to the dressing room and rushed directly to the mixed area. He yelled and rushed in front of the camera to hug Aldridge.
"Boss, win!"
He is excited for a reason, not just winning the game.
The camera locks the two mentors and apprentices who have a good relationship. Aldridge smiles and pushes Ronaldinho away, and then looks at the camera seriously: "Chelsea lost? I don't care much about them, yes, the situation in the standings after this game There have been changes, we were overtaken by Chelsea after losing to Leeds United, and now we are leading again, but Millwall’s goal is not to exceed Chelsea, there are two teams in front of us, Manchester United and Arsenal, our season final The goal is: there is no team in front of us."
"You said before the season that Arsenal will be dragged down by the European War. Now that they are out of the Champions League, they can concentrate on playing the league in the second half of the season. In this regard, do you think the situation has reversed? ."
"Arsenal have performed surprisingly. It is important to know that in the first season of the Manchester United and Millwall players playing in the European War, the first half of the league has had a lot of ups and downs, but Arsenal are very stable, but their price is the Champions League. Failing to advance, I thought they would go all out to get tickets to the top 8 of the Champions League. As a result, they paid more attention to the league than I imagined. In the second half of the season, Arsenal may be easier from the schedule. They don’t have a European mission. Fighting with Manchester United on the third line, starting from myself, I think Millwall will be stronger, because after Christmas, Pirlo and Larson will come back, and in March next year, Southgate will return to us. , When the team needs them most, I still believe that Millwall will succeed this season."
"Okay thank you."
After finishing the interview, Aldridge hugged Ronaldinho and said, "How long will you go back?"
Before today's game, Ronaldinho asked Aldridge for leave, and he wanted to return to Brazil to reunite with his family at Christmas.
At this time, the team is going to play Christmas wars, and there are cheats for the Christmas Express schedule. It is when the staff is needed. Ronaldinho will take a leave at this time and change the other head coach. It is estimated that Chengdu will not agree. Unhappy and unable to concentrate on the game, it is better to let him go back to the festival happily. For the players who are drifting from different countries, Adrich has always given them holidays in this traditional festival.
Before the game, Aldridge did not give him an accurate answer, only to say that he won Everton to talk about it, so Ronaldinho came to find Aldridge as soon as the game was over.
After thinking about it, Ronaldinho extended a slap and said: "5 days, 2 days before Christmas and 3 days after."
Aldrich thought about it and replied: "Give you 12 days, starting tomorrow, and report back on January 1, is there any problem?"
Ronaldinho was overjoyed and nodded in a hurry: "No problem, I can definitely return to the team on time!"
"Okay, stop playing, pay attention to safety, and take me to say hello to your family, Merry Christmas."
"Well, boss, I also wish you a Merry Christmas, I will come back from Brazil to bring you gifts.
"That's not necessary."
Ronaldinho hummed and left cheerfully.
Aldrich just thought about it. Before January, Millwall had two more games. One game was the Christmas War on Christmas Day, and the other was three days after the Christmas War. Ronaldinho took 5 days off, just right. To cover these two games, simply give him a few more days. He wants to return to Brazil to reunite with his family, to relax and have fun at the festival, then have a good time, and don’t be able to devote himself to the game without returning.
This season's Premier League competition is very stalemate, the top four first group competition is fierce.
Manchester United, Arsenal, Millwall, Chelsea.
The following Leeds United has been opened by a 6-point gap, but it is not too much. The ranking of the top four teams will always change after each round of playing, especially the position of the top team, after 18 rounds of league games. , The four teams take turns sitting, the average time for each team to sit in the top position for three or four rounds.
Aldridge watched the European Golden Globe awards ceremony at home before Christmas.
Nedved's absence from Everton was due to Aldridge giving him a holiday, letting him go to the Golden Globe ceremony, and also taking a break at Christmas. He played a lot of games in the league and the Champions League this year. Under the special holiday background, he can have a happy holiday with his family.
In front of the TV, when the voting result of the Golden Globe Awards was announced, Aldridge concealed his face and sighed, disappointed.
The winner of the 1998 Golden Globe was Zidane, and Nedved came second.
On the field statistics, Nedved finished Zidane, regardless of goals or assists.
But in terms of club and national team honours, Nedved cannot be said to be defeated.
Zidane has the league championship and the World Cup championship, especially the two goals in the finals is too high light, Nedved alone with the League Cup champion and Champions League champion, it is really difficult to compare with it.
Before the results were revealed, Aldridge was actually mentally prepared.
If the World Cup champion loses to the Champions League champion, this is indeed a bit unreasonable in the selection, especially in the context of Zidane and the league champion.
The reason for his pity is: Nedved lost 2 votes to Zidane!
2 votes!
If two judges rank Nedved first in the voting order, Nedved is elected.
His stats for goals and assists this year are so beautiful, almost leaving the vast majority of European strikers without self-confidence.
Aldrich texted Nedved: Don’t be disappointed, there is still a chance.
The bad luck is only in the singular years. Nedved was not elected this year. The judges are going to be thundered. But in the year of the competition, the proportion of the national team honors selection is too large.
He did not congratulate Nedved on winning the second place in the Golden Globe Awards. Perhaps in his heart, the second place is worthless, and people rarely remember that a certain star has won the Golden Globe Award, even if he remembers how? Isn't the first one pressed on the head?
Nedved smiled when he took the stage to receive the award. He hugged Zidane. After receiving the award, he saw Audridge's text message and smiled back. I certainly knew that there was a chance, and I was not disappointed. Zidane’s election was not controversial.
He is very optimistic. He is only 26 years old this year. It is the year when the player is playing. It is the beginning of the player's golden age. As long as he does not encounter major injuries, he maintains his current state of himself, even better than the full year performance of 98. Better has absolute confidence.
Perhaps this confidence also stems from the trust in Aldridge. The two of master and apprentice together will definitely create greater glories.
Christmas is approaching, the club is busier than usual, preparing Christmas gifts for each player, Aldridge will personally send a greeting card to each player, write a few messages, blessing for older players, and encouragement for young players Mostly, the players of the youth team are no exception. They are very excited to receive Aldridge’s autograph cards. Most players will save them as treasures. Like Villa, when he does not train well or the game does not perform well, He would go home and open the drawer to see the greeting cards Aldridge gave him in the past two years. When he saw some inspirational words written on it, he would immediately sweep away his depression and rejuvenate.
Many fan organizations will also send gifts to the club, even overseas fan organizations are no exception, so the club's work is very busy.
Friends and family asked Aldridge's Christmas plan, and he responded without exception to the "diplomatic decree" to lead the team to play.
On Christmas Eve, Aldridge attended a pre-Christmas press conference.
In previous Christmas Wars, Millwall's game was the focus, and the game was also exciting.
But this year's expectations are greatly reduced.
Not because of opponents, their opponents are Arsenal, who are only one point behind them in points, and another London derby.
The key is that Millwall has experienced a serious loss of personnel in the new season, plus a major injury stop.
"When such a crucial game is coming, Ronaldinho returned to Brazil. Is this allowed by the club? Or did he decide it privately?"
Fleet Street can no longer see Ronaldinho's figure on the Millwall training ground. In addition, the Brazilian media has photographed Ronaldinho appearing in Rio de Janeiro, and the news is still negative. He and his friends played in the nightclub until late at night.
Aldridge said lightly in the face of the problem: "He asked me for leave, and I agreed."
The reporters felt incredible.
The next game of the crazy lion is not to abuse food, it is to play the defending champion of the Premier League, and it is still away!
Richard asked puzzled: "Why would you agree to his request for leave in the absence of a major general? We know that many foreign players will complain about the Premier League schedule at this time, but they are professional players. There should be a certain professional quality and obedience to reality."
Aldrich did not agree, shaking his head: "My management philosophy does not need to be explained to outsiders, the players are also humans, and if they contradict the environment and reality, you cannot expect them to perform well. I am not accusing foreigners Players lack professionalism, but need to give them a certain amount of time to adapt. The fact that happened to Millwall is that during the first two years of my coaching, during the Christmas Express schedule, the foreign players such as Schneider and Makelele all performed well. Under normal levels, they have been very stable in the past two years."
Richard frowned and asked, "Even if Ronaldinho returns to Brazil and stays at the nightclub, do you think it is good for him?"
"I don’t advocate that the players’ nightlife is too rich, but I will not restrict them. As for Ronaldinho, wait for him to come back and see his performance. If he does not perform well, then he goes to the bench, Mill. The competition within the Wall team is very fierce. I believe he understands it. It is normal for young people to indulge occasionally. Many of you should have had the experience of staying out with friends for a long time, especially when I allowed him to return home. I will not blame him when the vacation is relaxed."
Aldrich is telling the truth. Ronaldinho can play whatever he wants when he returns to Brazil. Anyway, it is less than half a month, and it is completely isolated from the team. Unlike the party scandal that occurred last year, the nature is completely different.
Professional players are not saints. After work, they have fun and fun, as long as they don’t want to lose their fun.
"Talk about Nedved, will he appear in tomorrow's game? Yesterday he has returned to London."
"No, he will return to the team in the 20th round, and he will not be on the roster tomorrow."
The Fleet Street reporters were depressed.
Compared to last year’s Christmas War against Millwall’s star-studded star, this year’s lineup has been greatly discounted, and neither of the team’s hottest players in the first half of the season will play.
Ferguson said in his comment: Arsenal is really lucky.
