Chapter 751: Grab the limelight


The first two seasons coached by O'Reilly were very successful, with amazing results in the first season and tickets for the Champions League in the second season.
If the third season was not because of the failure to get the Champions League tickets at the end of the season, it should be considered a very successful season, because they entered the Champions League semi-finals.
Initially the players trusted him very much, but what happened in the past year gradually made them lose confidence in O'Reilly.
In layman's terms, it is to lose the chain.
In the third season, the league record slipped compared to the previous season's record, taking into account the European Union's test of the coach, this test, O'Reilly failed to break through, this is a chain.
In the Champions League semi-final two games and the league in the middle, three games and three games Millwall, O'Reilly disappointed the players.
Everyone has the evasion psychology, most people will choose to replace the dead ghost or shirk responsibility, the team is a fiasco, the player will not reflect in his heart on what he has done wrong, or what is not done enough, more or less Someone will put the blame on the head coach.
In the second half of the season, in the last two and a half months, the disappointment of O'Leary within Leeds United has evolved from the accumulation of quantity to a fundamental change, and internal contradictions have burst out.
The Leeds players, the coach, can no longer be regarded as a whole.
The players are playing on the field, and O'Leary commands on the sidelines. No matter what crazy O'Reilly is going, he doesn't look at him. O'Reilly is still "showing".
Since losing two goals, Leeds United began to defend fully, which naturally made O'Reilly anger, but he couldn't replace the whole team.
"4:0, Nedved's goal changed the score to 4:0, there are 15 minutes left in the game, there is no suspense in the victory and defeat, such a result really makes people feel sighed, thinking about three and a half years ago For the first time, O'Leary led Leeds United against Millwall led by Hall at Elland Road Stadium. Leeds United won. That season, Leeds United's 1 win and 1 draw advantage was impressive. However, since then, Leeds United faced Millwall, and Mo said that it is difficult to win, but it is hard to find! It is strange that Leeds United has clearly been on the rise during these years, and its strength is getting stronger, but it is strong. The record in the dialogue is getting worse."
"I think it's because Leeds United failed to clearly position itself. When a team started to improve its record and made the top strong teams start to be vigilant, then, in the second and third encounters, the strong teams were targeted. , Preparation, attitude, and tremendous changes will take place. Of course, there is a slight enemy on the football field. When Leeds United is not recognized as a strong team, they are more likely to explode, and it is easier for the strong team to encounter Waterloo, but when they are listed as contentious No matter how low the popularity is when one of the teams is marked, the strong teams will do their best when they hit them, but Leeds United failed to realize this, and, in terms of team status adjustment and control, I think Ole Leigh is still a little bit irritated, noting that Leeds United started the downturn of the team for more than two months after Christmas, you know, this is not only a mentality problem, but also the energy distribution problem of the team, Millwall It has done a good job in this regard, accumulating advantages at the beginning of the season, adjusting and recovering during the season, and exploding in the second half of the season! This is the overall control of the coach. So we have been saying that we can beat Milwa Yes, only time and injuries."
"Yeah, time will make their superstars grow older, their ability declines, their state declines, and injuries, especially large-scale injuries, will disrupt all plans of the head coach. But Millwall's work in dealing with these two aspects The team has also done amazing things. The excellent youth training system keeps cultivating newcomers. However, their lineup is constantly replenishing fresh blood. The cost of the highest medical department in the Premier League and even the world’s clubs has added a layer of player health. Guarantee, and the coach will not overuse the player, which in itself reduces the chances of the player suffering from injury and injury. So thinking, what Hall did at Millwall, it is admirable, it is not surprising why Mill Wall is not only strong, but also horrified and stable."
"So, I think Hall can already be called a great coach. Everything he does today will provide a perfect template for his peers, and learners to follow suit can benefit immensely."
When the whistle sound at the end of the game started, Aldridge stood up, strode into the player's passage, and the block was already empty. The home team fans began to retire in less than 60 minutes in the second half.
O'Reilly looked as if standing on the sidelines, like a candle in the wind, crumbling.
"At the end of the game, Millwall defeated Leeds United at home 4:0. This round was a good opportunity for Leeds United to close the gap with the top four, because Liverpool faced Newcastle United at home. Manchester United faced Tottenham at home, news from Old Trafford and Anfield, we do not need to confirm the final result, because Manchester United lead Tottenham 4:0 in 90 minutes, Liverpool lead Newcastle 3-0 United, the two red teams won no suspense, after the defeat of Leeds United in this game, although the gap with the fifth Newcastle United did not change, but the distance from the top four widened by 3 points, the league still With 9 rounds remaining, Leeds United’s hopes of getting to the top four have become slim."
In an interview after the game, Aldridge just expressed his pleasure at the result, and no other comments will be made.
At the end of the game, the story of Millwall and Leeds United is over.
On the second day after the game, the quiet change of Leeds United began to surface, and the club's financial crisis broke out completely.
Because of losing the game, Leeds United completely lost confidence in investors.
The fact is that they are farther away from the top four to enter the Champions League next season.
In three months, 8 league games scored only 4 points. With such a performance, who can you be confident?
Ritzdale began begging for money everywhere, and the club drastically cut expenses.
The exaggerated fake giants were all denied, expensive car rental services, free tickets for players were all cancelled, and a pet fish in the Ritzdale office was also taken away, which would cost £10 per week Expenses.
Secretly, clubs interested in Leeds United players are also actively contacting middlemen or agents to negotiate the possibility of a deal.
However, since I know that Leeds United has financial difficulties, unless it is a particularly sought-after player, a player who is not highly competitive, basically the bid will not be too high, or even lower than the player's normal value.
This is a cruel society, especially in the face of fame and fortune, in the view of some buying clubs, they are willing to buy the players of Leeds United, which is a gift: help Leeds United cut wages.
They will definitely not be able to cope with the huge wage expenses next season. If they cannot enter the Champions League, they must sell their players.
Leeds United is like a dying tree. I don't know when a strong wind will destroy it completely.
The turmoil in Leeds United triggered a strong linkage. Bates was actively looking for buyers and wanted to shoot Chelsea immediately. The third-level professional league below the English Premier League. Due to the financial crisis of ITV broadcasters, there are many professional clubs in England. The future is also marked with a huge question mark.
Fleet Street sounded the alarm: This may be a year of bankruptcy!
This is of course gaining eyeballs through Leeds United’s booing, but in fact there are many low-level clubs that are not concerned about and are in trouble, and are likely to face the crisis of bankruptcy and liquidation at the end of the season.
Aldrich doesn't care how the outside world develops. Football is a necessity of life in England. People can't eat without food, drink water, or sleep. For English people, even Europeans, can't do without football.
Therefore, the football circle is polarized and the gap between the rich and the poor is more obvious. The top clubs, as long as they have a broad fan base, are not afraid of having no future. Florentino used the Real Madrid brand to make use of this.
The atmosphere inside Millwall has changed somewhat.
When Christmas is over, the players are a little relaxed, and probably think that the league champion has not run away, it is time to focus on the Champions League.
But in March, everyone looked at it again, and their attention returned to the league because the reason is: they are likely to set a new record!
According to Millwall's 29 games, 25 wins and 4 draws, they have a chance to record the Premier League points and win records at the end of the season!
This will undoubtedly bring Millwall's dynasty to a new level!
So whether the main player or the substitute player is more serious in the face of the league than in the past two months, a record, it can not be done at any time, and the league is a long-distance race, even if determined, it requires strong perseverance to do it , Fang Xian was commendable.
In the middle of the week, Bovista returned to Millwall at the second stage of the UEFA Champions League group stage. At the Lion King Stadium, Aldridge sent all the substitutes to play. With the goals of Klose and Villa, Millwall 2: 0 soldiers without blood blade to win the opponent.
In the FA Cup Round of 16, Millwall still sent a bench, which was a test for them, but their physical fitness was completely ok. Kaka played a landmark game after joining most of the season, shining all field.
A long-distance attack with a ball to break the goal, a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, also gave Ramor a good pass assists, Millwall beat Aston Villa 3-1 away to advance to the quarterfinals.
The reason why both the Champions League and the FA Cup are on the bench is to give the main players more rest time.
In the 30th round of the league, Ferguson led the Red Devils Manchester United to visit London to challenge defending champion Millwall.
Rarely, Wenger spoke before the game started.
"The focus of this round is definitely the match between Millwall and Manchester United. The current situation looks like Manchester United has no chance of winning the runner-up again, but if they don’t want to participate in the Champions League play-off next season, they will have to score every point. Fight."
Wenger said these words as a bystander, completely angering Ferguson.
"He should shut his mouth. Manchester United have ranked above Arsenal for four years in the past five years. It is a fact that Arsenal are leading now, but they certainly cannot win the league title."
Ferguson's anger makes sense.
Wenger hopes that Manchester United can snipe Millwall. Now in the standings, Arsenal are 14 points away from Millwall. The gap is huge, but there is still hope of winning the championship.
But what does Wenger expect and hope Manchester United do is not exactly what Ferguson has always hoped Arsenal have done in the past?
Especially three years ago, Millwall counted down Arsenal, letting the Manchester United champion fly at the last minute, and finishing second. Ferguson felt that everyone was qualified to stand up and let Manchester United snipe Millwall, only Arsenal. Of people do not have this qualification!
Aldridge was depressed.
My team, my place, my game, the biggest favorite to win is also me.
Damn, what are you two grabbing?
