The Young Lion

Having been in European football for many years, Aldridge dare not say that he is full of peaches and plums, but it is a fact that he has many friends. =

After Drogba and Essien were listed at the same time, the Premier League team's bid was directly rejected by Aldridge, who wanted to sell the two to foreign leagues.

The head coach of the French Paris Saint-Germain Club flew to London during the winter break and came to see Aldridge. He and Aldridge are also old acquaintances, and Fernandez of Paris Saint-Germain who entered the palace for the second time.

Aldridge warmly entertained this old friend, and the other party did not play sloppy with Aldridge, and directly reported the final offer of Paris Saint-Germain.

20 million pounds to pack two people.

Drogba's current worth, in the eyes of the outside world, may not even be worth 10 million pounds, and Essien may not even be worth 5 million pounds.

They are valuable and will be in the future.

But without giving them a stage to display their talents, how could they be sold at sky-high prices?

Aldridge did not bargain with Fernandez, and directly agreed to the request of 20 million pounds to pack the two, but added one more contract clause: 30% of the next sale of the player, plus the Paris Saint-Germain club promised that if the two were sold, they would never sell them. They are sold to Premier League clubs, and if Paris Saint-Germain violates this agreement, 50% of the sale will go to Millwall.

Now Paris Saint-Germain's backstage consortium is canal+. It invested heavily in the Parc des Princes in the first few years, but later it couldn't make ends meet and lost money year after year. Last summer, in order to make up for the financial deficit, it sold many generals in the team. The result is a new season. Fernandez, who can't live without rice, is also powerless. Paris Saint-Germain is struggling in the league. In order to save the defeat during the winter break, Fernandez took 20 million pounds in a last-ditch effort. Because of this, Aldridge did not argue with the other party on the transfer fee, which is meaningless. club. No one will bid more than Paris Saint-Germain in the winter.

Millwall officially announced the transfer of two players, and the club firmly maintained Klinsmann's authority through this sale.

Since January, the Millwall dressing room has become calm, but this calm is slightly weird, it seems that it is about to become a pool of stagnant water.

 …

Three months passed in a flash.

Aldridge led the England team to visit Liechtenstein at the end of March. The European war was in full swing, and the league championship was also in the final sprint. In this game, Aldridge sent many young faces.

Liechtenstein was still bloodbathed away with a score of 5:0.

Returning to London four days later, the England team, which had exhausted its main force, defeated the visiting Turkey. The score of 3:1 is not perfect, but it marks that Aldridge has made some achievements in building a new national team, and the team's offensive and defensive system on the field is running more smoothly and freely.

After the game, before the national team disbanded, Beckham found Aldridge alone.

This time it was fighting at St. James' Park, and Aldridge and Beckham had talks in the reception room of the Newcastle United Club.

At the end of the game, the England team was actually in a semi-disbanded state. After interviewing the players, cleaning up the jerseys in the locker room, taking a shower, saying goodbye to the teammates, and then going back to the club.

Beckham obviously didn't take a shower, but just changed into a clean short-sleeved top and a T-shirt with the England national team logo.

He sat quietly in the meeting room, his sneakers were covered with mud, and his socks were black, which was the imprint left by his hard work on the field. His hair was messy, and he sat there in a daze, looking dazed and depressed. Even though he just gave two assists in the game and enjoyed the applause of England fans, his mind has now flown to another world. If you want to find traces of that world from his face, then it is the eyebrow A less obvious scar on the bone can provide insight.

After Aldridge was interviewed after the game, Jenson told Beckham that he wanted to talk to him alone.

When he came to the meeting room, Aldrich found that Beckham was still in a trance. He walked over, stretched out his hand and lightly pressed Beckham's shoulder, and asked with concern, David, what happened? Are you feeling unwell?

He originally thought that Beckham might come to him for a private meeting because of an unexpected health condition. After all, Beckham is the most famous football star in England. If he makes a mistake, it is no exaggeration to say that it will affect the nerves of the entire England.

Xiaobei came back to her senses, forced a smile and shook her head, saying, I just have some private matters, and I want to hear your opinion.

His state obviously means there is a situation. Aldridge was confused, but he still pulled a chair beside Beckham and sat down, saying: Okay, I will listen to what you want to talk about, just say it, What kind of confusion did you encounter?

Working together in the national team for these years, the relationship between Aldrich and Beckham is good. Naturally, the personal relationship is not as good as a close friend, but at least it will be a little closer than friends.

Beckham pointed to his brow bone, and said shyly, I don't think I can stay at Manchester United any longer.

Aldrich, who originally listened to Xiao Ben's voice from the standpoint of a friend, suddenly felt dizzy.

Almost two months ago, the flying boot door incident broke out in the dressing room of Manchester United. Ferguson and Beckham, who love their father and son, officially broke up!

Every family has its own hard-to-read scriptures. Aldrich used to think that he was capable and able to manage the dressing room in an orderly manner. In fact, he did not intervene in the management of the Millwall dressing room as the chairman for more than half a year. Only then did he suddenly realize: It's not that I have much ability, but that I have too much power!

Because of his great power, he can do whatever he wants, reward whoever he wants to reward, and let the other party go if he doesn't like it.

As for those head coaches, there are too many factors to worry about, such as balance relationship, record pressure, talent selection, etc., which are beyond the scope of Aldrich's take it for granted understanding.

Aldridge said solemnly: David, I'm also the head coach. From my standpoint, if I don't have any expectations for a player, I don't have any requirements for him. I won't talk to him. I won't waste Time to communicate with him. You will not be angry because of him. How Alex treats you, you know in your heart, he is not perfect, no one will be perfect, but what he wants from you in his heart is perfection, purely in the field of competition , I hope you. David Beckham, is perfect! Not only can become the banner of Manchester United, but also can be a role model for Manchester United's current generation, the next generation, and countless generations of players in the future. The genius Duncan Edwards, Alex just hope that you, Ryan, Paul, Gary and other players with Manchester United blood flowing through them can become the modern version of Edwards. No regrets for Edwards, no. For Edwards , The genius who was still thinking about the game before his death is a pity for him, if you waste your talent, it is not a pity, but in the eyes of the head coach, it is a sin.

Beckham bent down, put his hands on his head, and said in a low voice: I feel like I'm going crazy. For the past four years, I've been torn between my family and my career. My whole person is about to split. Coach, you said you stand on the Lord's side. The position of the coach, but what if you stand in my position? Not to mention the verbal disputes about who is right and who is wrong, he hurt me, if it is not lucky, the spikes may stab my eyes! And he, in At the press conference, he played down the matter in a joking tone, without even apologizing to me. He regarded this as a war, a war of the authority of the head coach, but I just want to be respected and an apology ...

Aldridge put his hand on Xiaobei's shoulder, watching Xiaobei clutching his head with ten fingers, both in pain and struggling.

Suddenly, Aldridge realized that this heartthrob might not be living as chicly as he was under the spotlight.

For four years, since he married Victoria in the summer of 1999, part of the main theme of his life has been the history of struggles between football career and star career, wife and mentor.

From the honeymoon trip in the summer of 1999, Ferguson forcibly recalled the club to interrupt the sweetness of the newlyweds, and was reprimanded and punished by Ferguson for business activities, and was absent from training for taking care of the sick Brooklyn, and was still cursed by Ferguson... until In February of this year, when he came home, Victoria saw his wound and called Ferguson directly and said: You come out, we two can solve the problem!

The Scottish old man didn't come out with the hot girl to solve the problem, but the two, who love each other like father and son, have reached the inflection point of their relationship.

It is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework. If Aldridge was involved in such a matter, he would not know what to do if he were Ferguson. But he thought about it, maybe when he was the club coach, nothing would happen At this level, because he can't tolerate sand in his eyes, he cut through the mess quickly, and put an end to the follow-up development of such incidents early on.

David, you have your thoughts and feelings. You are the person involved. I can't fully understand you. I can only say objectively that Alex doesn't ask too much of you.

Xiao Bei raised his head and asked incredulously, Not too much?

Will Alex ask Sharpe to become a world superstar? No, he cleaned up Sharpe. But why does he keep asking you to do this and ask you to do that? Have you thought about the reason? Of course, you can say that he has a desire to control, But in my opinion, what he asks is not too much, because what he asks, if you work hard wholeheartedly, put all your energy on football, don't participate in commercial performances, have an ordinary family like everyone else, put all your thoughts on it. In football, how high will your achievements be? Where is the height you can reach? And that kind of pinnacle is that Alex keeps whipping you, and finally makes you feel humiliated and disrespected, Ah Alex may be more angry than you, and more unreasonable than you, because in his eyes, you have failed all his expectations of you!

Beckham stared at Aldrich with wide eyes, and did not say a word for a long time.

Although Ferguson was judged as a bad temper by the outside world, isn't the hair dryer in the locker room a microcosm?

But what can a manager achieve if he's just a tantrum?

If Ferguson was targeting Beckham from beginning to end, how could Beckham become the legendary No. 7 of the Red Devils?

Think about Beckham, who became the Public Enemy of England back then, who stood up to defend him?

Back then, I loved and protected him because he was immature, he was still young and needed protection.

Now he is being harsh and demanding of him because he should have been alone and should have assumed greater responsibilities in the Manchester United team. The big reason for his current anger is that he hates iron but not steel.

Of course, Beckham's achievements are already very high, but he should have been higher, as if if the Chinese team entered the top 16 of the World Cup, then it would be fine, don't ask for more, but if the Brazilian team enters the top 16, Can the top 8 and top 4 stop without being blamed?

Beckham should be able to understand this kind of truth, but as he himself said, he feels that he is being torn apart. One side is a mentor, the other is his wife, the other is football, and the other is fame and fortune, especially football and fame. Sometimes they complement each other Yes, and sometimes, they are extreme opposites. (To be continued..)
