The Young Lion

It was dawn, people woke up, it was time for Lu Xiaopang to go home.

Aldrich was woken up by a phone call at 4:30 in the morning. During the World Cup, his personal phone was turned on 24 hours a day, also to keep in touch with his family, whether it was Ivan who was far away in London, or his parents and friends who came to Asia. two sons.

It was Ivan who called him, and Aldrich was startled, thinking that something had happened to Ivan in London, but after answering the phone, he realized that Ivan was also woken up in the middle of the night by disturbance in his sleep.

Rooney's actions last night were followed by reporters from the beginning to the end, and those reporters were so powerful that they even sneaked into the hotel where Rooney was in charge, secretly filming all the way, and after Rooney left, he spent a lot of money to buy news from two Japanese girls Stories, during which news material has been constantly sent to newspaper offices or corporate headquarters.

Fleet Street will do everything to inquire about the news, and there will be a complex network of interpersonal relationships. When Yiwen was working in the past, there were many friends in Fleet Street. Come on.

The news from the newspapers on Fleet Street has not yet been released, but the content of the news has already reached Ivan’s ears, just like the sex-party scandal at Christmas, they notified you in advance, in addition to selling favors, it can be regarded as reciprocating , when needed, you can return the other party an exclusive report or a heavy headline.

But the news certainly cannot be blocked, there are so many media in the world, the news has already been leaked, to inform Millwall, especially Aldrich's pillow, is nothing more than to use a microphone to make Aldrich mentally prepared to avoid scandal He was kept in the dark when it broke out.

Aldrich did not draw a conclusion when he first got the news, and he would not just listen to the media's one-sided words. Nor will he question the players.

so many years. There are always a lot of unscrupulous media making up news. As for Aldridge's principle of managing players, the first point is trust.

Trust is not what you say.

For example, since 1998, the media has been arguing about who will leave the team at Millwall. If Aldridge read the news and went to ask the players, wouldn't the trust between each other disappear when the words came out?

Aldrich is waiting, whether the matter is true or false, there is no possibility of remedy at this time. When the morning sun shone into the room, today's newspapers from many media were also placed on his desk. After reading the contents of the newspapers, the evidence was conclusive. Besides, it was not a media that reported the scandal.

People who stand on the cusp of the storm naturally cannot be liked by the whole world. Some people will use malicious attacks to fight for the position and earn the attention of the outside world, but Rooney. Obviously it is not worth more than ten well-known media outlets risking their reputation in a lawsuit to collectively persecute him.

No need to confront Rooney,

Aldrich knew that everything reported in the news was true.

Although the player's scandal is nothing more than a little shit. The public is also accustomed to it, but the same person, with different representative identities, has different influence and shoulders different public obligations.

Wayne Rooney, as a player of the England national team, created such a scandal in the context of the World Cup. To put it bluntly, it will damage the reputation of the United Kingdom, and it will have a very bad impact on the England national team. In the moral judgment seat, people will issue all kinds of doubts and criticisms, as well as irresponsible accusations and difficulties.

As dawn broke, Aldridge yelled at Rooney in Rooney's room, and all the England players and coaches on the floor could hear him clearly.

Expelled from the team!

Aldridge has been the coach of the England national team for a year and a half, and he has basically never lost his temper with the players, and once he gets angry, it is irreparable!

People used to say that Aldridge protected his weaknesses and used his power for personal gain. Half of the players in the England national team have a relationship with Millwall, but when the players make mistakes, Aldridge can deny his relatives. hesitate.

Aldridge left. Before leaving, he asked the coaching staff to preside over the morning training. He was going to have a meeting with the FA officials to discuss the aftermath of the scandal, that is, the public relations crisis.

The English players felt chills in their hearts, and Aldridge was not angry. They were always lucky, but after all, no one dared to try to challenge. Rooney, a player who has only officially started his career for a day, may not have that awareness, and have never experienced it. With the cruelty of his career, he crossed the threshold, and then, it seemed, he walked into the abyss beyond redemption.

Rooney's eyes were bloodshot. Because he didn't get enough rest, he slept for less than 3 hours. He looked at the newspapers all over the place, and there were sneak shots of his whereabouts. He walked into the hotel, left the hotel, and even published the two Last night, the photos of the oriental girl who was having a good time with him were extremely dazzling.

Wayne, the boss may be too angry. You can confess to him in an hour...

Joe Cole gave Rooney an idea. Although hanging out outside the stadium is a bit like a friend, but at this time, at least you can't run away without a trace, right?

Joe Cole thinks things are turning around because Rooney is from Millwall.

Such thinking is too naive.

Rooney raised his head. At this time, he was already scared, his heart was trembling, and he couldn't say a word, feeling that he had no strength in his body.

Not only Aldridge's anger, but how should he face his family?

Young, ignorant, and reckless in doing things, Rooney is really a negative example.

When he heard Joe Cole's words, he was about to nod his head, and he also felt that he could ask Aldridge, maybe he could stay in the national team, as if, staying here would be the only way to get asylum.

However, when he saw two men walking in from the door, his face turned pale.

Joe Cole also knew the two men who walked in. One was his manager, Andrew, and the other was an employee of Andrew's management team. He usually helped them with trivial matters.

Andrew is formally dressed in a suit and leather shoes. Of course, he has also come to Asia. In the World Cup, there are many players under his company. As a feast of global attention in the football world, it will naturally attract the attention of all powerful players in the transfer market. On the one hand, Andrew must always Updating the fluctuation of the player's value is also to expand the business on the one hand, to see if there are any good seedlings outside of Europe who are willing to join him, and the business is also being negotiated at the same time.

After Andrew closed the door, he nodded to Joe Cole, then walked up to Rooney, seeing Rooney's frightened and hesitant eyes, he said calmly: Wayne, I'm sorry, this time it's my job dereliction of duty, I should Send someone to follow you, otherwise such a thing would not happen.

Yes, Andrew is out of duty.

Other players, like Beckham, McManaman, Owen, Lampard, etc., they came to the World Cup. During this period, their agents will continue to tell them to pay attention to their public image, not to make mistakes, and even When going shopping outside, there may be a public relations staff to design it, why? It's all money!

And Rooney, although he is a player under Andrew's banner, but he came to the World Cup and was completely inconspicuous. With his worth and the salary he got in the Millwall youth team, Andrew sent someone to follow him and give him a small team? Isn't this a loss-making business?

Who would have thought that Rooney became famous with one goal, and Andrew wanted to send two assistants to Rooney after yesterday's game. The benefits brought, and then it is to follow the rules and behave.

But Andrew was interrupted by phone calls one after another. Millwall's young talent became a blockbuster. Who would the agent be? The outside world doesn't need to check, just call Andrew directly, absolutely right.

For this one night's delay, Rooney ran into a catastrophe.

There is no doubt that no one will be interested in him for a while, and his public image is at stake.

Rooney didn't expect Andrew to apologize as soon as he opened his mouth, and put the responsibility on the other party. Anyway, Rooney felt better, and he asked in a shy voice, I'll go to the boss to admit my mistake, can't the boss change his mind?

Andrew shook his head calmly. At the same time, the person he brought had already asked Joe Cole and started to help Rooney pack his luggage.

Stay here, I've already booked the plane ticket back, I'll pick you up later.

After speaking, Andrew gave his assistant a wink, and then left the room.

At the same time, Aldridge held a meeting with the FA officials traveling to the World Cup in the hotel conference room, video conference, and the FA executives in the UK.

Aldrich is naturally responsible for Rooney's troubles. He is the coach of the national team, and his management is not strict and his discipline is not effective.

It’s just that the FA doesn’t want to attack Aldridge. After all, Aldridge is a firefighter, and England is booming. Both sports and commercial income have improved significantly. What's the use of holding a meeting when someone makes a statement?

It happened to be the World Cup, and it happened that fans from countless countries around the world were staring at this place and paying attention to the news here. The scandal of the England team, needless to say, has spread all over the world.

Expulsion from the team? Well, this is fine, but if you don't hire the national team for a year, isn't that too serious?

This sentence was said by Thompson, chairman of the English Football Association in a video call.

And the person he spoke to was Aldridge.

Someone next to him also said: It is the best choice for the national team to let him leave at this time. However, England does not have many good strikers. After the World Cup, he is almost 17 years old and can play for the national team. Closing the door to the national team within a year may not be a good thing for the development of the national team, right? Aldrich, you should think about it again, the penalty of not being recruited for a year, let’s avoid it.”

Aldridge, who was sitting on the main seat in the conference room, looked cold and said without any room for maneuver: No, although I will resign after the World Cup, I am firm in my opinion on punishment, Wayne Rooney, expulsion from the team, and In the next year, the national team will no longer recruit him.” (To be continued..)
