The Young Lion

Thank you Thieves for your reward!

----------------

Millwall Club's exclusive luxury airliner is on its way to Monaco.

Many players and coaches in the cabin were recharging their energy, but Aldridge was sitting in his seat with a pen and a tactical board on his lap. Four players were sitting on the left, right and opposite of him.

Kaka, Ronaldo, Villa, Alonso.

Although Millwall's football philosophy is based on simplicity, when simplicity begins to breed rich and varied scenes, the players' thinking sometimes falls into chaos, so Aldridge needs to communicate with them, raise points, and bring some of them Thought that the complex picture is simply described.

These four players are full of interest. They are still young. Although they have honors, they are not enough to be gods. Ambitious, they are very willing to listen to Aldridge's teachings when everyone else is resting, and cherish every minute and every second. Digest every word Aldrich said by yourself. If there is something you don't understand, immediately bring it up and have an in-depth discussion with Aldrich.

Cristiano, your strengths at this stage are the first ball-handling skills, the second speed, and the third physical fitness. In order to make you a more comprehensive player in the future, you have to be clear-headed. In a team, every Individuals play different roles, taking offense as an example, organizer, coordinator, and finisher. Played all the roles, took the ball from the organization area, started to instigate the attack, and finally scored the ball by himself. But this is not widely applicable. After one season, Millwall easily scored goals in all competitions 100, but less than 10% of the goals were scored by a player who completed two or three roles at the same time. Maybe you will find my words complicated, so I will simply tell you that you can become More comprehensive, now, I will give you a fixed area, on the right. You are the supporter, and you have to serve the terminator, that is, assist as much as possible! But you can switch positions with your teammates, when you are on the left side of the offensive end When you are facing the goal, you will be more sure of shooting with your right foot. That is to say, the shooting accuracy and threat will be higher after cutting in with the reverse foot. In this area, you are the terminator, remember. Two Role, you can switch at any time in the future. But now, try to let yourself play this role in a fixed area as much as possible! This is very important to your future, very important!

Ronaldo nodded solemnly when he heard the words. When he played as a substitute in the past two seasons, his position was not ambiguous, but he himself would be lost because he was Larson's substitute, and Larson scored very efficiently. , He also wants to follow Larson's route. In fact, after Larson became the team's top scorer from Henry, Larson has become a spot-grabbing forward.

Ten years later, Ronaldo is actually similar to a point-grabbing forward, who divides the ball, runs, grabs points, shoots, and scores.

But the natural point-grabbing striker has limitations,

That is, most of the man-ball combination ability in sports warfare is not too strong, and the man-ball combination ability of a shooter like Ruud is already outstanding.

In order to make Ronaldo more comprehensive, only if he is more comprehensive, his threat will be greater and he can become a shooting machine!

The route of training Ronaldo is actually somewhat similar to Henry's career trajectory.

If Henry hadn’t played as a winger before, and didn’t play a role of teamwork at the beginning, his power would be greatly reduced when he switched to playing as a center forward. However, he was born as a winger. At the beginning of his career, he controlled the ball more, made more breakthroughs, and controlled the ball more. The handling of the game plays a very important role in honing skills, improving experience, and reading all aspects of the game.

And those who were born or played centers at the beginning of their careers have obvious limitations in their range of activities, because they will be at a loss in unfamiliar areas, and their ability to read the game is also limited.

For Kaka, Aldridge said more straightforward.

Kaka, your position is the most tightly defended area in the contemporary era. In the past, there was a single midfielder or no midfielder, and there was only a deep central midfielder. Now it is a double midfielder or even a triple midfielder. The defensive pressure in this area is very high. Big, but you are in this position, you can’t play in a similar way to Pavel, you need space, forward space, how to create this space, that is vertical and horizontal offensive tearing, so you must be on your own Teammates have absolute understanding and overall control, tearing horizontally, giving the ball to the winger, and our two full-backs, tearing vertically, with a center forward in front to bring out the depth, behind us there is a midfield combination, Alonso and Germany Rossi, your forward attack requires calmness and correct prediction. Once the opponent defends the wing or your teammates cover you in the same area, then it is your ability to dribble the ball and directly penetrate the opponent's defense. At all times, when dribbling, you should also constantly observe the running positions of your teammates, because once you make a breakthrough in this position and come to the back line, this will be a chain reaction that will affect the whole body. Human goals are commonplace!

Kaka frowned in thought, and couldn't help but took the tactical board in Aldridge's hand, and looked down carefully. Aldridge drew a circle on his position, and then there was a dotted line indicating the passing line. It was really in all directions. , It requires him to have the ability to see the six directions, and at the same time have a solid line to draw his running position and the line of breakthrough with the ball.

As for Villa, Aldridge has nothing special to say. Villa is completely underestimated by the outside world, because Henry is too dazzling. During Henry's absence at the beginning of the season, in August, Villa played Scored 5 goals and sent 4 assists at the same time. The effect on the front line is very obvious. How to switch roles between inside forward, center forward, finisher and supporter? Villa has been influenced by Millwall football philosophy all the year round , He has mastered it, and now the only requirement for him is: to keep up with Ronaldinho's rhythm.

Ronaldinho is the biggest threat in the frontcourt, that is, the most important target for opponents to mark. Ronaldinho has no ambition to become a shooting machine. Therefore, Ronaldinho is willing to contribute to his teammates. The key is that teammates must be able to follow to his beat. Keep up. Ronaldinho can make the situation very clear. Make it easier for teammates to exert their maximum combat effectiveness.

While Kaka was meditating on himself, Aldridge took the tactical board back, erased the content on it, and began to communicate with Alonso. Last season, Alonso performed well in the role of midfield commander. The new This season, Aldridge will strengthen Alonso's ability to assist and oppress. It doesn't have to be a threat, but it must be able to make the opponent vigilant and panic, just like in defense, there are players who can block the opponent's passing line through smart and reasonable positions without chasing the ball. When attacking, as long as One point of pressure can distract the opponent, but it can also make a great contribution to the teammates and the team.

Before the plane landed in Monaco, Aldridge was surrounded by players, except for the original four young players. Ram, Ramos. Messi, De Rossi and other players took the initiative to listen and discuss. When the captain reminded that the plane was about to land, they returned to their seats. The older Nedved and Larson smiled at each other.

Since the UEFA Super Cup has often appeared in the past ten years, Millwall has also participated in 4 consecutive times since the UEFA Super Cup was changed to Monaco. This year is the 5th consecutive time. Millwall also has a large number of players in Monaco fan.

The number of fans who greeted Millwall outside the airport was quite spectacular.

Before Aldridge led the team to board the bus, he and the players signed autographs and took photos with some fans, which aroused a lively atmosphere on the scene.

This year's UEFA Super Cup will be a battle between last season's Champions League winner Millwall and UEFA Cup winner Valencia.

Many years ago, Valencia was Millwall's opponent in the Champions League final. Many years later, they won the UEFA Cup, led by Benitez.

After Benitez took charge and left, Valencia invited Ranieri, who was idle at home.

Aldridge and Ranieri have also played against each other for a long time in the Premier League.

When he coached Chelsea, the two did not talk to each other.

However, after Ranieri lost his status as Chelsea coach, Aldridge would also say a few words of compliments to Ranieri in public, just like after Lao Lei left West Ham United, Aldridge even resigned after leaving the country. When the team coach left Lao Lei as one of the candidates for the national team coach.

The FA also announced that Lao Lei became the coach of the new national team. After taking office, Lao Lei publicly praised Aldridge, and even gave people the impression that he was saying: When I lost to him at West Ham United, Convinced.

Ranieri also praised Aldridge before the UEFA Super Cup.

Perhaps, he is still dissatisfied with Chelsea. Abramovich's football revolution did not allow him to participate, and he was fired when he was on vacation, and the hired Eriksson did not do as well as him.

Benitez was tired of the endless infighting in Valencia and left England. After Ranieri came to Valencia, he started a Renaissance.

Regardless of Ranieri's coaching ability, at least his coaching ideas have not kept up with the changes in La Liga football.

August 27, Stade Louis II, Monaco.

Monaco's royal nobles came to the Millwall dressing room an hour before the game and greeted Aldridge warmly. Many members of the Monaco royal family admired Aldridge and took a group photo in the dressing room.

When the game was about to start, Aldridge walked out of the player tunnel and went to shake hands with Ranieri before the game.

Millwall and Valencia's starting players are also ready to go.

The European Super Cup, which symbolizes the renewed fighting in Europe in the new season, is about to start. This is an appetizer for the new season in Europe. Some local fans in Monaco said a joke: just move Millwall to Monaco. Hehe Hehe, Millwall has appeared at the Louis II Stadium for five consecutive years. Among these 5 times, counting today, they have 4 times as Champions League champions, and 1 time as UEFA Cup champions Identity, that is, last season, I still remember that they had an earth-shattering goal shootout with Milan last season. In the end, Millwall was lucky to beat Milan in the penalty shootout. Today, their opponent may not be as strong as Milan. But also not to be underestimated, Valencia are champions of La Liga.

Aldridge looked at the starting players of both sides from the sidelines. Millwall played with the main lineup, but Valencia was not clear. One king and one courtier, in Ranieri's mind, who will be the main force and who will be the substitute , You can't tell from just one game, and Aldridge doesn't care.

Millwall started 433.

Goalkeeper: Bout.

Defenders: Schneider, Nesta, Thiago Silva, Lahm.

Midfield: De Rossi, Alonso, Kaka.

Forwards: c Ronaldo, Villa, Ronaldinho.

Valencia starts with 451.

Goalkeeper: Canizares.

Defenders: Canela, Ayala, Marchena, Aurelio.

Midfield: Fiore, Albelda, Baraja, Angulo, Vicente.

Forward: Corradi.

The reason for playing the main lineup in the European Super Cup is that Aldrich hopes that this single-game decisive cup will be able to give young players a certain amount of mental pressure and exercise their ability to withstand pressure. The European Super Cup is tasteless, but for football players Players in the game, especially young players, will definitely attach great importance to it. No one wants to fly all the way to play a game and then watch others win the championship and go home lonely. (To be continued..)
