The Young Lion

Alan Pardew, who was coached 5 years later than Aldridge, has ambition and passion, but he is by no means a fool who talks nonsense when his mind is hot.

How strong Millwall is is obvious to all.

But he thinks that West Ham United can have an advantage in a certain confrontation. He wants West Ham United to fight against Millwall in this game. Maybe they punched the old master to death?

However, after Haywood and Ashton were violated one after another after the opening, the two were a bit cautious in the journey of siege, which inevitably caused Alan Pardue's tactical idea to die before it was implemented.

A senior is a senior, not to mention that this senior is a great master who is worshiped by countless people in the entire football world.

Aldridge lost the Lion King Stadium in a way that Alan Pardew couldn't understand at first.

Millwall scooped four goals for West Ham at the Lion King.

Of these four balls, two are long shots and two are supplementary shots.

And the two supplementary goals came from long-range shots!

If West Ham United dare to play double forwards, the back line must be placed in the penalty area and put on intensive defense.

They waited for Millwall to play embroidery needles in front of them, but Millwall's offense always made the final blow outside the penalty area, long-range shots!

Boom, boom, the ball is like a cannonball, and it hits West Ham United's goal from all angles from a distance again and again.

Ronaldinho hit a world wave that flew into the upper right corner of the goal from the left side of the penalty area.

Alonso hit the ground in front of the middle, but was blocked by Kaka and turned and rolled into the goal.

These two long shots have no solution!

De Rossi's long-range shot created chaos in the penalty area, and Ronaldo succeeded with a supplementary shot.

Ronaldinho and Schneider's long-range shots from the outside were caught by Henry and they scored easily.

Millwall triumphed at home.

when the game is about to end. Alan Pardew stared blankly. Millwall fans cheering in the stands. It seemed to be singing to him an elusive sentence: Who is throwing Luan Punch?

Looks like Millwall is playing luck!

But he can score four goals,

How bad is this luck?

In the professional battle revenge analysis published on Fleet Street the next day, The Times columnist David Miller used smart way to win to describe Millwall's tactical use in this game.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Alan Pardew wants to use his muscles to form a wall in the penalty area to prevent Millwall from scoring.

It is true that Millwall has a European game ahead, and although the points behind Chelsea in the standings have not changed, Chelsea have been winning and playing one game less. Invisibly, Chelsea is expanding their lead!

So Millwall can't fight recklessly. Do not over-consume to minimize the probability of combat attrition.

So, Aldridge used an unreasonable way to crush West Ham United.

Long-range shooting is actually just an auxiliary method, not the ultimate means!

In terms of the ability to capture fighters in the penalty area, Millwall's forwards have very high quality. In response to emergencies, Henry, Ronaldo, and Kaka stepped in behind. Ronaldinho wandering outside the penalty area is definitely stronger than his opponent!

So. As long as the long shot is shot, as long as it creates chaos, Millwall's invisible advantage is to crush the opponent when fighting for the second reaction!

Therefore, David Miller believes that Ronaldinho's goal is a genius play, there is no solution!

Alonso's long shot was luck. If Kaka didn't touch the ball, there would be no goal.

The supplementary shots of Henry and Ronaldo were the result of Millwall's tactics.

When teammates shoot long shots, observe the running positions of Ronaldo and Henry, and it is obvious that they are trying to find and grasp the opportunity after the chaos!

Combined with the opening, De Rossi and Silva frightened Ashton and Haywood with fouls, turning these two fierce players who helped West Ham United into docile cats.

David Miller believes that Aldridge taught Pardew a lesson that should be memorable for Pardew.

This is exactly where Millwall is now scary. He fights openly and close with the opponent, making the opponent both unpredictable and difficult to see through.

Winning the East London derby did not make Aldridge any happier.

Because Chelsea swept Bolton 5:1 at home!

Chelsea is really going against the sky!

The start of the new season, 9 consecutive victories!

Millwall has reached third place in the standings, 2 points behind Manchester United, but still 9 points behind Chelsea!

After the league game, Aldridge led his team to Italy, preparing to challenge Inter Milan as a guest at Meazza.

In the last UEFA Champions League match, some fans of Inter Milan threw fireworks during the match, causing the game to be cut in half. Therefore, UEFA sentenced Inter Milan to not allow fans to enter the three matches of this UEFA Champions League group stage, which is equivalent to weakening the great home advantage. .

Inter Milan was turbulent in the past few years, and if the record was slightly unstable, Moratti would be impatient to change coaches, but such a coaching change would only create greater hidden dangers, probably because he figured out that frequent coaching changes are not long-term According to previous standards, the current coach Mancini should have been unstable since he took office, but Moratti gave him extraordinary trust.

Aldridge is not very excited about the upcoming match with Mannich, and at this stage he pays more attention to the league.

Mancini attaches great importance to this peak battle for Inter Milan!

When facing Aldridge, Mancini had to say very low-key: In the field of coaching, there is still a big gap between him and Aldridge, but he firmly believes that Inter Milan will not easily surrender to Millwall!

Millwall, who came to Milan, did not have a good rest. Fanatical Inter Milan fans made noise outside their hotel all night, even if Millwall called the police, it would not help.

In this UEFA Champions League group match, Aldridge will naturally still have to rotate, allowing substitute players to play.

A very ordinary game in the eyes of Aldridge.

It has nothing to do with life and death, and the opponent's strength can't make Aldridge have such a fierce battle.

But when he walked into the court after the routine training in the locker room, he felt the paradox of the atmosphere.

Probably because he really focused his energy on the league. Aldridge didn't take seriously a message that had been told to the whole world before the game until the crisis.

this game. The stands are basically empty!

UEFA fines Inter Milan to play behind closed doors at home!

but. It is impossible to say that there is no audience.

First of all, the broadcaster must be on the scene, the media will report on the spot, and there will be a lot of reporters entering the stadium to watch the game, but reporters are reporters, and they will not shout and cheer for anyone in the stands, they are bystanders.

There are also a small number of spectators who belong to special channels and have obtained the qualifications to enter the stadium to watch the game.

Inter Milan cannot sell tickets to fans.

Millwall can be regarded as a fish in the pond. Their fans cannot come to the away game to cheer for the team!

Therefore, the remaining channels include the official UEFA sponsors, who have tickets, and whoever the sponsors want to give these tickets to is the freedom of the sponsors.

But that is only a small part after all. Compared with the stadium with a capacity of tens of thousands, less than a thousand people come in, which is really not much different from no one.

When the players of the two teams lined up to enter the field, Aldridge slapped his head in front of the coach's bench and lamented remorsefully.

Came to Italy. He also called Moratti so that his precious daughter could come to watch the game.

This is not. In the VIP box, Moratti warmly entertained Ivan and Bonnie, treating them as honored guests and sitting in the box to watch the game.

Now, Aldridge feels uncomfortable on the sidelines.

To talk about the closure of the stands, Millwall has also witnessed it. For example, Leeds United was fined by UEFA for racial discrimination in the past. However, when the penalty was honored, Leeds United’s opponent was not Millwall.

And no matter where Millwall goes to play, no matter how many fans the opponent team has, Millwall has a large number of loyal fans who go with the team.

When playing in the stadium, they will feel the atmosphere in the stadium, and will intuitively see and hear the presence of fans in the stands.

Today, for the first time ever.

Ran all the way from London to Milan, came to an empty stadium to play a quiet game!

Not adapted, not adapted at all.

Millwall is a team with a big scene. The bigger the scene, the more they enjoy it. In other words, as Millwall players, what they yearn for is the big scene, not the small stage that no one cares about.

Today's game environment is like giving the Millwall players sleeping pills, they can't get excited at all!

Especially Larson and Nedved's condition is not good.

On the match day at the beginning of the month, the two teams represent the national team and have to fight the life-and-death battle of the World Cup qualifiers, and the energy invested can be imagined.

Back to the team, it is true that they did not play the last round of the league, but today they are here to play as a guest. The travel is also a burden for them. In addition, there were Inter Milan fans harassing them outside the hotel last night. An insignificant training match.

Various factors led to Millwall's surprisingly poor state in the game!

Although Inter Milan is definitely not used to not having home fans at home to cheer them on.

However, they have played a round of home games in Europe at any rate, they got used to it in the last game, and they are mentally prepared today.

The players performed much better than Millwall, but Millwall did not show their full strength, and the players were sleepwalking on the court. After Aldridge noticed the problem with the atmosphere of the game, he immediately adjusted his tactics.

However, this adjustment proved to be a failure.

On the contrary, Millwall's formation is out of line. The whole team is not in a unified rhythm. Only the real coach will understand that changing the team's formation by directing the game from the sidelines, even if a certain player's position is moved, is not imagined. It's so easy, because a change is often a chain reaction, which affects the whole body and requires the tacit coordination of the whole team.

Obviously, Millwall, who is not excited today, is in a bad state, and the whole team cannot reach a high level of tacit understanding. Aldridge's on-the-spot adjustments made them confused. (to be continued...)
