Chapter 808: The third generation, taking off in two years

When he calmed down and started the formal conversation, Klinsmann's mind had become sober.
If there is a European coach, which head coach has the most power in the club, Aldrich must be ranked first because he is the boss, but after excluding him, Ferguson is ranked second.
Ferguson has covered the sky at Manchester United, and everyone knows it.
And Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Milan duo, Juventus, Bayern, and other rich coaches, which power can be greater than Ferguson?
No!
Klinsmann wanted to gain power like Ferguson, absolutely unrealistic.
First, the situation has been reversed.
Klinsmann understands that Millwall threw an olive branch at him instead of climbing him high. On the contrary, he never officially coached the team, but at this point, he does not have much bargaining power. Derridge worked as a teaching assistant for several years, knew Millwall well and was familiar with everything here. I am afraid he would not appear in Millwall's selection list.
He can understand Aldrich’s starting point: be stable!
However, he will strive for power as much as possible, so that he has more room to play here.
"Aldrich, first of all, if I become the head coach, the team's competitive affairs, you can't interfere, it will damage my authority and will make me unable to work."
"I understand that I will give you two years. During these two years, I will not interfere in the team’s competitive operation, but I also hope that we can reach a consensus. First of all, Millwall’s youth training system cannot move. It's the bottom line, there is no room for negotiation."
"Of course, how can Millwall's success be easily changed? But what do you say is the requirement for two years? If you wish me to take Millwall to the height of the past season, sorry, I certainly can't do it , Even you, I am afraid it will be difficult to replicate the glory of last season."
Aldridge nodded and said: "Milwall will enter a rebuilding cycle next, so the strength will decline significantly, the first year will be very difficult, as long as the record does not fall below the bottom line of the giants, it is enough. In 2010, Millwall must return to the top ranks in Europe and be in the top position. If you can’t do it, sorry, we can only choose another virtue.

Klinsmann's expression is heavy. In fact, he has already obtained some of the powers he wants most, that is, independent control of competitive affairs, training, competitions, tactics, main substitute arrangements, etc. As for other powers, it is placed in Millwall. Among the giants of the level, he wanted more, and he was not qualified to reach out for it. It can be said that Aldridge gave him enough power and enough time.
In two years, the first year was restored and the younger generation officially took the lead. In the second year, it rose back to the top. The time was a bit hasty, but the richest, the most impatient! The most disgusting wait!
When the teaching assistant made suggestions, it was Aldridge who decided to dominate the situation. When it was time for Klinsmann to make a decision, he was a little hesitant, especially for things that he knew were irreversible. , Trying to redeem.
"Pirlo, do they really have to leave? Give them a top salary and can't keep it?"
Klinsmann's tone was more complicated, and he was both sorry and looking forward to it.
Aldrich shook his head and said, "Money is not the main reason. I can be honest with you. In fact, I think it is really time for them to leave. Some players can use Millwall as their home and fight for their entire career. For example, Nedved, Southgate, Larson, and some players can’t do it. The team needs metabolism, and it needs to stifle the problem before the problem fully erupts. I felt this on the day of the Champions League final. A dangerous sign, I think that leaving Pirlo, Zambrotta, Gattuso, Materazzi might be counter-productive, which impedes the opportunity of our young players and forced the loss of our excellent players. At the same time, their athletic ambitions in Millwall are slowly decreasing. They want to go. At this time, I think that for them and Millwall, they are the best."
Klinsmann nodded helplessly. When he was a player, he could better understand Aldridge's words. When you don't want to stay in a place, you will do whatever you want, and the fighting spirit will gradually decline. What's more, it has become famous all over the world.
"Then, their next home has been determined?"
"Still talking, the problem is only in the transfer of Fira sawing, but they are gone, it is a foregone conclusion."
"I'm sure I'll leave in the summer. Who else besides the four of them?"
"No, the team's new round of renewal is in progress and is making good progress. Or, you can't use a player who wants to let him leave. Say it. The club terminates the renewal negotiations and leases or sells it. I will consider."
Klinsmann smiled bitterly: "Millwall did not have many first-team teams last season. Now he sells four, and the rest are all useful. Moreover, Nedved suffered a serious injury in the UEFA Champions League final. It takes six months to recover from the injury. , Don’t sell, don’t sell any more!"
Aldrich said: "Then the first team team, roughly what I can be sure is, four people left, and at the same time, Ashley Cole, who returned on loan, can replace Zambrotta, Lampard can replace Pirlo, There is also Alonso in the same position, just the position after Gattuso left, either we introduce a high-level midfielder, or you can trust the return of De Rossi and Pedretti, Joe Cole, in Nedved offers one more option when he is out of play. The vacancies where Materazzi left, Metzelder, Balzali, Neil, if you think there are hidden dangers, after the World Cup, we can use the transfer market Reinforcement, I think there is no need to change the front line, Ronaldinho, Henry, Klose, Larson, Villa, our lineup is enough to deal with multi-line combat, and the young C Ronaldo. "
"Well, the most important thing right now is the World Cup. Specifically, wait until the World Cup is over and talk again."
"Oh, yes, you can decide for yourself in the coaching staff. I will talk to Jensen after the World Cup. He should not stay in Millwall again."
Klinsmann was silent for a moment, then nodded.
He and Jenson are considered to be under the ranks of Aldridge, and Jenson's prestige in the team is higher than him. If he is the head coach, and Jenson still gives him a hand, let's not say whether Jenson is willing, Klin Siman is not very willing to happen this way. Within the club, it is almost equivalent to the feudal system. The authority of the head coach is to cover everyone.
Moreover, Jenson itself will not be willing.
Aldridge's remarks completely dispelled Klinsmann's worries. Aldridge will not interfere with the team's competitive operation, and will even help him pave the way.
As he left the meeting room, Klinsmann was refreshed, and his eyes flickered sharply.
The new season is a huge challenge for Millwall.
It seems that the change will not be too big, but only four people have left, and there are people who can match up.
But in fact, Millwall's midfield and backcourt midfielder exchanged blood!
Pirlo, Gattuso, Materazzi, coupled with super capable full-backs, this blood exchange is definitely a bit of a bone.
Lampard and Ashley Cole have been on loan for a year and a half, and they have to have a break-in period with the team after returning, plus the two positions of the midfielder and defender. , Even if there is a strong aid, still have to overcome the hurdle of the synthetic type!
Aldridge has been in charge of Millwall for 8 years and a big cycle of 4 years. The first generation of mad lions completed a skyrocketing from nothing, and the second 4 years from 1998, from the strong to the top of the giants. Column, and hit the extreme height last season, the ancient seven-time champion, three consecutive Champions League, four consecutive league titles.
The law of football development cannot be avoided. When a large cycle ends, it is bound to enter the new generation of reconstruction. However, too many teams are reluctant to rebuild heartily even if they find problems after their glory. Only when the high-rise building became a ruin was it determined to rebuild, and it would be too difficult to rebuild the skyscraper above the ruins.
Aldridge believes that he left Klinsmann’s team with the ability to build a generation of crazy lions who were at the height of Millwall’s heyday.
Maybe not all positions have talents, but you can see Ronaldo, Kaka, Lampard, De Rossi, Klose, Alonso, Ashley Cole, etc. in the formation, There are Ronaldinho and Henry, who are still young but have become the mainstay players, plus Nedved, Schneider, Larson, Southgate and their experience.
In two years, as long as there are no major problems, Millwall’s return to the top of Europe is not an unreasonable and demanding requirement.
Aldrich packed up the documents in front of him in the conference room, just got up and left, and the phone in his pocket shook again. He took a look and smiled.
"Hi, old friend, is the negotiation finished?"
"Aldrich, can't it be cheaper anymore? The price is really high."
"Alas, although we have a bad relationship with Juventus, the quotations they offer are very sincere."
"Juventus is raising the price, it's Mogi that disgusts you, you can't let him succeed!"
"Yeah, so I did not agree with Juventus' offer."
"..."
Galliani is going crazy. AC Milan and Millwall start player transfer negotiations. This is no secret in Italy. At the same time, there are also negotiations between Inter Milan and Millwall. The venue is in Milan City, which is Milwaukee. Al sent to the negotiation team, after all, the Italian national team is training for the World Cup.
Juventus jumped in the cross to raise the price, but they weren't allowed to stop them halfway.
Galliani gritted his teeth, both he and Moratti actually wanted to finalize the transfer before the World Cup. They worried that once the World Cup passed, in case Italy performed well in the World Cup, the player's worth rose again. Negotiations are another price tag.
Aldridge hung up the phone and stood in the hallway, gazing through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the distance. The scenery of East London is still the same, but some people will never come back. Even if they come back, they will change from friends to enemies...
