Before the game between England and Greece, Aldridge did not go to the sidelines early, because today he has something to say to the players, and he is very curious about the locker room here.

I have been to Old Trafford many times, but this is the first time I have sat in the home team dressing room as a manager.

It feels weird.

Neither guest nor host.

Aldridge was the only one sitting here in the locker room. He looked around, looked at the players' wardrobes, looked at other facilities, touched the bench under his buttocks, closed his eyes, as if he could see Ferguson pointing out the country here, and, Turn on the hair dryer.

Ha ha

Aldrich suddenly laughed out loud, feeling that he had imagined an interesting scene.

After being the head coach for a long time, I have lost my admiration for famous coaches in the past. What I feel more deeply in my heart is the empathy for the difficulties and hardships of famous coaches.

This job does not allow you to stop, to rest on your laurels, or to sit back and enjoy what you have achieved. It is true that you must keep pace with the times every day, understand your environment, understand external information, think, and reflect. Sometimes it really makes people rack their brains to be true to themselves.

Not long after, Beckham walked in from the outside, followed by teammates who had finished warming up, and members of the coaching staff.

Boas came over and briefly reported the situation of the turf at Old Trafford today to Aldridge.

It often rains in Manchester, and the turf situation must be followed up in real time, otherwise accidents are likely to occur. Millwall came here to play pre-match. The scouts will also update the weather in time.

This intelligence update is more exaggerated than ordinary people imagine. Because it might rain three or four times a day in Manchester

After the players sorted out their game equipment, Aldridge got up and walked to the tactical board, and said: During the year I spent with you, I emphasized discipline, improved tactics, and had professional exchanges with each of you. However, I have not discussed the issue of game mentality with you. Because you come from different clubs, and each club has its own culture, there is no uniform standard, but I think we trust each other now, so we can share this experience, Share it with everyone, if you think it is useful, it does not conflict with your own football philosophy, and you can accept it selectively.”

Game mentality is a more complicated issue.

Because it involves how quickly you get into the game.

Some players need negative emotions to mobilize the excitement of the game. For example, anger will deliberately amplify the things you are dissatisfied with before the game, such as the boos of hostile fans, and deliberately find troubles with the opponent's players to create hostility.

And some players may need self-motivation, continuous self-suggestion to prove, to break through, to reach new peaks, so as to make themselves full of motivation for the game.

Therefore, if it is not necessary, Aldridge will not use language incentives as a magic weapon to mobilize enthusiasm before the game, and the situation varies from person to person.

The England players held their heads high and were very interested in what Aldridge had to say next.

Excluding Aldridge’s impressive record since he led the national team, his own achievements in the club are enough to make his sharing of experience a good word. Here is not a Millwall player. I would like to hear how much he can gain. Anyway Certainly better than not listening.

In England, there has always been a saying among fans that there are two types of European football, one is English football and the other is continental football. You must understand, right?

Continental football generally refers to the technical flow of European football, while English football is the style of holding high and playing high passed down from ancient times.

Beckham, McManaman, and Irving smiled.

They feel the deepest. When some traditional fans criticize them, they always say that they are not like English players, but European players.

England's players like Lampard, Gerrard, and Heskey.

A matter of style.

England football emphasizes bravery, fearlessness, and iron blood. The continental style of football is considered cunning by fans, just like Ronaldinho, Zidane and others, playing football depends on deception.

Aldrich's words amused everyone.

Indeed, it’s not that traditional English fans don’t like technical players, they just feel that they don’t belong to England’s style. Technical players, when they encounter tough players in England, rely on their skills to gain an advantage, but they are at a disadvantage in physical confrontation and frequently fall. Instead, all parties are cheating to gain an advantage. This cheating is actually a joke, but it does not rule out the existence of cheating and fairness such as diving and pretending to be injured. Traditional England fans believe that the person who fell to the ground in the confrontation , It’s just that they lost and were sentenced to a foul, which made them a little unacceptable. They felt that the football was getting softer and softer, and even physical contact was not allowed. Players who fall down at the touch of a touch have always been disliked by fans in England. The reason is also this.

I don't want to discuss football style with you, but I want to tell you that the English style of football and the European style of football have their own characteristics. The Premier League has survived for many years, relying on the English style of play, and many teams have learned from them, and some have achieved certain results.

The players who play in the Premier League nod frequently.

For a period of time, most of the Premier League games had a very distinctive feature, that is, after the opening, a certain team would immediately make an aggressive foul on the opponent, scaring the opponent in terms of momentum! This is actually a behavior developed by the extension of the British style of play.

A team cannot flexibly switch football styles. That is to say, you can't play English football today and European football tomorrow. It takes a long time to shape a football style. However, if you change the football style after it is formed, you have to take a lot of risks. However, the game mentality and how to play can be adjusted by yourself. In terms of football style alone, English style and European style. Each has its own advantages. But Why has England always been behind the top teams on the world stage for many years? I think it is the mentality of the game. We have always played with the mentality of the British style of play. Bravery and fearlessness, dare to rush and kill, this is an advantage, but It may not be guaranteed. Or to increase the probability of winning. At this point, the cunning of the European style of play highlights the advantages. They face the game more flexibly and are better at coping with games in different environments. Therefore, European style has become the mainstream, while British style can be said to have been completely eliminated. I use Millwall as an example. You may not agree, but I use Manchester United as an example. You can’t refute it, Giggs, David , Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ruud van Nistelrooy and other players are not traditional English players.

These remarks made the players think deeply.

Manchester United, Liverpool, these clubs that traditionally represent England, are also changing their style of play. It cannot be said that Manchester United still insists on flying on both wings because it insists on the tradition of English football. Otherwise, why would Ferguson buy Veron? Can Giggs and Beckham reach the standard of traditional British players in terms of physical confrontation?

The traditional English style of football has become history. Regardless of whether traditional England fans accept the European style of football, anyway, English clubs must keep up with the mainstream, otherwise they will be eliminated.

But some British traditions still exist. For example, most of the coaches will still clamor to fight the opponent desperately before the game, so that the players can't wait to show the momentum of killing the opponent's family.

is this okay?

It can only be said that there is something wrong with it, the rigidity is extremely easy to break, how can a football match be fought bravely? It is also necessary to fight wits, making the best use of the situation is the most reasonable approach.

Football games are irregular, because every game is full of variables. Excluding external factors, the most variable factors are two parts, one is the opponent, and the other is oneself. Even if it is the same opponent, the players play, execute There are bound to be changes in tactics, and the variable factors of the opponent are beyond our control. But what we can control the most is our own variable factors. To put it simply, the head coach will have different tactical strategies for different opponents. At the same time, the players , and have a different mentality to deal with it. There is no such thing as a football field where you just go forward and win the first time, the second time, the third time, and the fourth time. Situation. What do you rely on to win? Not only depends on your own strength and exerting your strength, but also depends on knowing your opponent, what strength your opponent is, what tactics they adopt on the field, and what they want to do, and then you do it Make a judgment, choose one of the two, first, whether I can definitely win the game by exerting my full strength, that is, I can win the opponent regardless of the opponent's thoughts on the game. Second, if I exert my full strength, it is impossible to stabilize To win the game steadily, how to increase the probability of winning? How to create more opportunities? Then you need to make targeted changes based on the intelligence of your opponent, and your game mentality should also change accordingly. .”

The players looked at each other, but Southgate showed a proud smile.

The outside world said that Millwall's winning streak seems to be easy, but he has really experienced it. As the captain, he knows the hardships best. The adjustments made by the Millwall coaching staff for each game are not at all outside I know, it is difficult to see it with the naked eye during the game, but it is this full preparation that is the foundation for Millwall to lay a brilliant foundation.

In fact, this kind of experience is the conclusion drawn by the combination of Aldrich's previous life witnessing football history and his work experience in this life.

An example is Real Madrid, known as the Galaxy Battleship.

The era of the Galacticos came after 2002, and there was no mention of the Galacticos in 2001, but since the formation of the Galacticos, Real Madrid has flourished and declined.

The strength is definitely no problem, but it seems far-fetched to say how weak the defense is. Doesn't that mean hitting Erguela and Makelele in the face?

The mentality of the game must be a large part of the record.

He thinks that he can crush all opponents, while the opponents deal with Real Madrid in a targeted manner, tit for tat, and the strong often encounter Waterloo.

Although Real Madrid's offense has the particularity of its club's history and culture, it is still worth learning from the typical failures.

The players reflect on the games Aldridge has directed them over the year.

It is true that in different situations, different tactics are used. In fact, this also affects their game mentality to a certain extent.

Why bring it up now?

Obviously, because the media and fans all over England are praising this group of international footballers!

Aldridge is just talking about tactics, is that enough?

They must have a correct and reasonable mentality to deal with the game, otherwise everything is empty talk.

The players have figured this out, combined with the current situation and the external environment, they also understand that Aldridge has worked hard to improve his psychological quality, avoid being disturbed by the outside world, and at the same time exercise their ability to resist pressure.
