Chapter 897: Dutch War


When Aldridge came out of Anfield's court lane, the entire England fans stood up and applauded!
"Sir Hall is here! Leading England to bring the Hercules Cup back to England's Young Masters World Cup for the first time in the field, and received the applause of all the fans in England! No high respect can express the English fans to this young handsome. Thanks and admiration, now we have reason to expect that under the leadership of Sir Hall, England will be full of ambition and fighting spirit on the new journey! Yes, I am talking about the European Cup in 2004!"
Aldridge walked all the way to the coach seat. The fans in the nearby stands protruded across the edge of the stand and gave him applause and cheers. The pursuit of the young handsome in England was unimaginably crazy.
Stella Maggioni, who had just sat on the coach's bench, felt his breathing was abnormal.
He hasn’t played professional games for a few days, coached the U17 youth team for a year, and has watched countless games in the stands. However, this small style of football field in England, he is still immersive for the first time, especially as a coach The sound inside the stadium lasted for a long time, as if it was an invisible pressure, breathless.
He saw Jenson calmly smile around him and had to admire each other's concentration.
Aldridge walked to the coach seat and sat down, smiling at Jenson: "I hope I won't be scolded by fans today."
"Haha, anyway, you didn't recruit much of the main force at all. That's it, and McManaman's departure. Fans have already been mentally prepared to buy tickets. You are not putting Beckham, Owen into the team. On the bench, in that case, the fans may be dissatisfied."
Aldridge raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
Not long after, the referee of this friendly match led the way, followed by England and Holland starting players.
When the players entered the field, Aldridge remembered that he did not shake hands with the opponent's coach, but was disturbed by applause on the court.
"Ah, I hope he doesn't think I took the World Cup and put it on the shelf. It's not a stranger to say."
"What do you say to yourself?"
Jenson asked curiously.
Aldridge pointed to the coach seat next door secretly and said, "I forgot to shake hands with the other side. Do you remember him?"
Jenson probe went out to look around, trying to think back, and said tentatively: "The coach of Eindhoven then?"
"Fuck, you are still Dutch, even your compatriots don't seem to know each other."
"I haven't paid much attention to the Netherlands in recent years. It was a long time since Millwall and Eindhoven played together. Why, do you remember?"
"Well, remember, I had expected him, but I was very disappointed."
Aldridge said nothing else but the Dutch coach, Ed Vokat, who led Millwall many years ago.
Van Gaal led the Dutch team to resign and failed to break into the 2002 World Cup, Ed Vokat was the successor.
Seeing the starting player of the Dutch team, Aldridge whispered again: "Friendly match, don't be like this, the pressure is great!"
The Dutch team is doing their best!
England is too cold, and only Gerald, Campbell, Neville and others can support the scene.
"England and the Netherlands are both in their respective teams in this round of the European Preliminaries. What is interesting is that this friendly match is the initiative of the Dutch Football Association to contact the FA. It seems that the Netherlands team that failed to go to the World Cup wants to prove itself in front of the new World Cup champion. But the Dutch may be a little depressed at this time, because in this England training, many of the main forces have not been recruited. Sir Hall, who has always emphasized the combination of work and rest, very considerately let the national team of these summers struggle for more than a month to recuperate to ensure that England will start the European Cup qualifier tour in a better state in October."
"What makes us more curious is that the formation of this friendly match in England has changed. The 4321, which was listed as a classic tactic, was actively abandoned by Sir Hall. He chose the 442 formation, but it is not the traditional 442 in England, but a small one. Diamond midfielder 442. The two sides will be introduced below.
England starts with 442.
Goalkeeper: James.
Guards: Gary Neville, Campbell, Terry, Bridge.
Midfielders: Hargreaves, Gerrard, Carrick, Joe Cole.
Forwards: Alan Smith, James Beatty.
The Netherlands started with 433.
Goalkeeper: Van der Sar.
Guards: Reziger, Stam, De Boer, Van Bronckhorst.
Midfielders: Koko, Davis, Seedorf.
Forwards: Ovimas, Kluivert, VanderMead. "
Although it was a friendly match, most of the team's main force did not report to the national team. Aldridge's training was mainly based on ease. In addition, he began to build a new round of national team technical and tactical system. It was more difficult than when he just took over the national team. Smaller, after all, the team philosophy, the player's tacit understanding, this level of things will not disappear, there is no need to overthrow, only to change the technical and tactical system content.
Two years, it should be enough, especially in a group that does not have much pressure to qualify for the European Cup qualifiers.
And this friendly match is the beginning of the change.
England changed to 442.
It's a change, not a return.
Because this is very different from the traditional 442, first of all, they still have no frontier.
The Dutch team apparently came to Anfield with the courage to kill the world champion Majestic, and played extremely unrestrained from the start of the game.
After all, this group of players on the English court haven't played together for a few days. The tacit understanding of the cooperation is unbearable. Coupled with the high requirements of Aldridge's new tactics, the team is extremely demanding. On the scene, there is only one feature on both ends of the offense and defense: chaos.
After the opening, the Dutch team got a lot of good offense opportunities, but none of them turned into a great opportunity. It seemed to be too hasty, and did not have the patience to calmly deal with the final attack, but Aldridge found an interesting phenomenon that made him There was an evil smile in the corner of the mouth.
"What are you laughing at? We are passive."
Jenson was very puzzled by Aldridge’s somewhat gloating smile, and look at Stella Maggioni’s dedication next door! Others frowned, and they looked worried. They were obviously worried about the unfavorable situation of the team.
Aldridge lowered his head and chuckled.
"Hey, what the are you laughing about? Let me say it."
In fact, today's friendly match has another meaning. Aldrich did not make it clear, but Jenson could understand it.
That is, they don't want England to win or how good-looking England can play.
Even losing is acceptable!
Why?
Beat the arrogant English!
Let them wake up from the joy of winning the World Cup.
Although it is impossible to stop the blind arrogance of the English, it is better than nothing to suppress the amount of suppression.
Just like a team, it is always in adversity, indicating that there is a problem with strength.
But if it is always smooth and smooth, it is not beautiful, because you might fall suddenly and you will fall apart!
This set has already summed up a set of relatively handy experiences in the eight years that Aldridge has been in charge of Millwall.
Therefore, the Dutch team hopes to play in a friendly match. Aldridge let the Football Association directly agree to ask the Netherlands to pay for the money.
But beating the team produces a sense of crisis, urgency, and brings a certain amount of pressure. It is impossible to deliberately release the water if you understand the reality. It is too nonsense to lose the game intentionally.
The opponent is strong, which is enough.
But the Dutch team is not as strong as Aldridge imagined.
He bent down with a stomachache and hugged his stomach, and turned to smile at Jenson: "I always felt that being an England coach was a painful chore. Planning to become the national team coach. But now think about the European powerhouse, so many national teams, which national team coach is good? France? Germany? Italy? Spain? The Netherlands? Seeing the performance of the Dutch team, I suddenly Feel lucky, but sympathize with Ed Vokat."
Jenson understood most of the meaning in Aldrich's words.
Like France, there are ethnic problems internally, and Zidane's greatness is partly due to his great contribution to national integration.
Germany, that is a place where the thinking of seniority is deeply rooted. You dare to move some big brothers to help the newcomers to stand alone, just wait to be forced into the palace!
Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands have more or less similar problems, either because of interests or nationalities, but any problems that are reflected in the society of a country will actually be reflected in the football circle.
Like England, it's pretty good.
At least the issues that Aldridge has to worry about rarely come from outside the competition.
But Jenson still didn't understand Aldridge's last sentence. He lowered his head and asked, "Why do you have to sympathize with Ed Wokart? I think we should sympathize with England now, we are being beaten up by the Netherlands!"
"Hahaha, to be honest, how many do you think can win England with the Dutch?"
"Uh, if we die, they can't win, or at most one. According to our situation today, we may lose at least one."
"It's been 25 minutes since the game. The Dutch team has so many opportunities. Why didn't they have a decent shot?"
"Uh……"
"Don't see it yet? Fuck, you should continue to study with me."
"Talk, hurry!"
"You didn't find Seedorf and Davis, they only passed Cruyvert the pass? So many good chances before, if they are willing to pass the ball to Ovimas or Van der Mede, then the last pass Or the final blow, the Dutch team can do better! England have lost the ball! Hahaha, Ed Wokart, can this question be by the head coach? The Dutch team, the uncrowned king, deserve it!"
Jenson Horan looked up into the field, his expression uncertain.
In fact, to watch the game intuitively, I don’t think the Netherlands has a big problem. It can be understood as too hasty, eager to hit the attack directly from the center line to center Cruyvet.
And since Seedorf, Davis, and Cruywitt were Ajax’s teammates, how do they cooperate and contact each other? What is strange?
But if you think deeply, Essdorf, Davis's level, will not understand the importance of the combination of side and middle?
But it was a strange place to pass on Cruywitt so arbitrarily.
As a Dutchman, Jenson immediately understood that he was not surprised.
This is the conflict between the Netherlands and the whites and blacks, the Dutch and the Surinames, from all levels of society, to football, to the national team, whenever the Dutch team fails, the infighting factor is indispensable. Infighting infighting, in the end What is the infighting? What's so infighting?
It is a social problem.
In a country, problems that cannot be solved by the whole society can be solved perfectly in the national team?
England also has problems such as racial discrimination, but it really does not meet so sharply in the football field, like Manchester United and Liverpool are foe, Beckham and Irving can become a model of the best partner.
Aldridge has a little sympathy for Ed Wokart. This is not the kind of problem that the head coach can sit down and be honest and let the players join hands to be good friends.
