Stepping into April, the atmosphere of the fan community of East London teams is different.
Charlton fans are relaxed and relaxed, the team is relegated and worry-free, and they may get tickets for the European War. They are not demanding. They are enjoying every game now and concentrate on cheering for the team.
The Hammer helped fans witness the team’s fall from the Premier League to the Premier League for many years. This season is good. As long as West Ham United does not crash at the end of the league, it will definitely return to the Premier League next season!
It is estimated that many hammers have helped fans look forward to restarting the popular East London Derby with Millwall in the Premier League next time.
Fans of the crazy lion are now slightly nervous.
In the league and Manchester United, there are only 7 rounds left in the Premier League. The result will soon be announced. The Champions League will come to the quarterfinals. Can the team perform a miraculous defending? I think it is too early to consider the difficulty of this achievement. Fans of the crazy lion are afraid of reappearing on the road of defending.
There is also pressure within the Millwall team. This pressure has been with them since the season.
Because they are the public enemy of the Premier League and the most watched team in Europe, there is the pressure of unbeaten league games at the beginning of the season.
But the top team must have a strong ability to resist pressure. At the end of the season, Aldridge did not decompress the team as in the past. On the contrary, he needed the team to fight the pressure with fighting spirit and rushed to five. At the end of the month!
After the FIFA game day, Millwall ushered in Everton, who was determined to be relegated.
Three days later, there will be the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Odric gives the rest of the main force returning from the national team. The more he is under pressure, the more he can’t panic. This is his coaching style.
After 90 minutes of the game, the Lion King Stadium fell into a short silence, and then the mad lion’s song rang again in the stands.
The score on the scoreboard is 1:1.
Millwall had a draw.
Manchester United’s visit to Anfield in this round, swallowing two bombs and returning with hatred, the situation that originally had the same score as Millwall has turned Millwall into a 1-point lead.
Millwall reached the top of the league, but Aldridge was not happy.
There was not a three-pointer in Everton, and this was an upset result.
At the same time, due to the first half of the season, Millwall’s undefeated gold body was broken in Goodison Park. Everton has really become the host of Millwall this season.
Aldrich didn’t know whether to be angry.
Everton, when they look forward to each season, they are all in the middle of the Premier League. However, they are only thrilling to relegate until the end of the season. It is no exaggeration to say that they are relegation madness, but they think that their lineup is far from strong. Far from being at a high level that can be kept up to level, it can only raise a feeling of hate for iron and steel.
At this stage, the relegation team is really not easy to play, even in home battle, the opponent must win every point, almost the tiger’s mouth!
Millwall’s internal momentum is soaring, each player is extremely serious when training, and meticulous preparations.
Aldridge now oversees the team training is a hand thrown shopkeeper, often showing off the negative posture like a majestic old man.
The increase in the overall age of the team represents the player’s own mentality has reached a mature and stable period, and has seen the sea. At this time, the pressing pressure of the league and the Champions League double attack, in the eyes of many senior players, is just a small wave, wanting to panic them. It is very difficult. There is quite a north-south wind, and I stand still.
When Schneider returned from the national team, he deliberately sent a bottle of good wine from their winery to Aldridge, Aldridge readily accepted.
During the training break, Ronaldinho and Villa sat in front of Aldridge. Today the sun is plentiful, and it is lazy to shine on them. This kind of weather training is good or bad, and it is easy to make people sleepy. The best weather is The cool climate is refreshing.
“Boss, is it difficult to defend the Champions League?”
Villa raised his head and asked curiously.
The situation in the Champions League this year is different from previous years. Although Millwall entered the quarterfinals, it is only one of the four Premier League teams. Fleet Street represents England. Millwall can only be said to hope to enter the finals, but the media is more I hope to see the other teams in the Premier League go further. It is best if all the semi-finals are occupied by the Premier League. As for whether Millwall can create a new history, they don’t really care.
Therefore, Millwall’s call for defending is not high, and the outside world has deliberately created a difficult argument for defending, intending to put pressure on Millwall. The media outside of England must be the purpose of disturbing the military.
Just like Aldridge’s psychological battle when he put pressure on Manchester United, which one do you want in the league or the Champions League? It’s time to choose, be careful!
Aldridge sat on the grass and smiled with his hands on his knees: “In history, eight teams have completed the Champions League defending, Real Madrid, Benfica, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Ajax, and England. Nottingham Forest and Liverpool. Difficult, definitely difficult, but because of the unexpected difficulty, when you do it, the sense of accomplishment will be unparalleled.”
In the context of this time node, there has not been a so-called “successful without defending after the Champions League restructuring.”
The system was restructured in 1998 and is now only 01. There are many reasons for the difficulty of defending sharply after the restructuring. One is that there are more participating teams and the competitiveness has improved a lot. Before the restructuring, only the league champions of major leagues can participate in the Champions League. The strength of those second-tier league champions cannot shake the first-class league champions. After the restructuring, the runner-up in the mainstream league, the strength of the third and fourth places, far exceeds the second-tier league champions. One can imagine how strong the competitiveness is, and the defending situation has become cruel. The second is the post-Bosman rule era, the stronger the stronger team, the easier it is to recruit stars, and the strength limit of the strong team is also increased year by year.
“Eight teams have successfully defended their titles. If we can also defend successfully, it will be the ninth.”
Villa put his hands on the grass behind him, looking at the sky with dim eyes.
Although this is not the ninth number, it is also a shocking honor.
Ronaldinho bowed his head and said nothing.
He has worked hard this season, especially when he came to the end of the season, the Champions League defending road has gone more than half.
In defending the Champions League, Millwall had a chance. Last time, he fell to Munich.
Although Ronaldinho has already relieved, it does not mean that his ambitions have begun to disappear, becoming the ninth team that can successfully defend the Champions League. The name of Millwall will become special among the giants!
“Don’t think so much, the top 8 hasn’t passed it yet. We want to defend the title and others want to win the championship. At the level of the top 8, no one will easily give the victory away.”
Aldridge smiled after speaking.
Can you not?
Even he himself is desperate for the success of defending the Champions League. In this way, he has three Champions Leagues in four years, which not only makes Millwall’s dynasty more convincing, but also his own coaching achievements have reached a new height. Three The UEFA Champions League will make him tie the record of Liverpool’s winning of the Champions League in 5 years with the Paisley interest rate.
But if he can’t do it, he won’t blame too much. Whether he wins or loses, he loses, loses, there is nothing to panic, but he can’t lose to himself.
The atmosphere of the team’s active preparation is good, everyone is working hard with action, trying to put their name in the new history.
Millwall’s major fan organizations are also in action, buying a lot of away tickets, going to the away to cheer for the team up close.
Before having dinner with Brady and his wife, Brady was even laughing, and many members of the fan organization have already done a good job of awakening.
The Champions League game is in the middle of the week, most of the fans have to go to work the next day, but went to watch the ball abroad, if the team can achieve a satisfactory result for them, the fan group will naturally celebrate, and no one will finish watching it uncomfortably. The game immediately went to catch a plane and returned to China to prepare for work the next day. After the celebration, the work on the second day was suspended.
After preparing for the battle, the Millwall team was promoted and took their special plane to Valencia, Spain, as a guest to challenge the Bat Army.
Mestalla, the lair of the Bat Army, the burial ground of many strong teams in these two years!
“In the first round of the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 00-01 season, Valencia ushered in the defending champion Millwall at home. It was like a fatal meeting again. The two teams, whether fans, coaches or players, must be calm. ! Last season, Millwall won Valencia for the second time and won the Champions League trophy. This season, people think that Valencia’s strength has fallen sharply and cannot occupy a seat in the feast of the giants, but Cooper is relying on his excellent coaching. The ability to make Valencia all the way to the quarterfinals is admirable, just as Millwall sold the main team of half the team last summer, but it is still difficult to reach the quarterfinals. Believe. Although Valencia has the advantage of playing at home, but they meet Millwall, the gap in strength can not be ignored.”
Aldridge walked into the stadium and stood on the sidelines, looking around the stadium. This was not the first time he came and led the England national team to Spain to play an away friendly match. It was here.
However, today there is really a sense of sight.
The large number of Bat Army fans in the stands are still different from the Spanish national team fans in the characteristics, and the momentum created is also very different from the friendly game.
The fans of Valencia must succumb to their hearts, want revenge, and want to let the crazy lion bleed here to repay the pain of the defeat of the Champions League final last season.
Fans of the crazy lion came to the road and were equally excited to create a huge cheer in the stands, which is not unlike the fans of the home team.
Before they enter the stadium, they will find the hostility of the other side when they contact or watch the Valencia fans on the streets around the stadium. It was a gesture that used to be very used by lion fans. They felt unwilling because of the defeat on the court. Meet early to complete revenge.
Crazy Lion fans are now disrespectful, and even make fun of them: they should be thankful that they are a Spanish team, not an English team. They have known for two or three years in the Premier League that the more they think about “revenge”, the more they will let themselves pain.
The team that talked about revenge before playing against Millwall in the Premier League, 1, 2, 3, definitely less than 4.
Valencia coach Cooper appeared solemnly on the court. He took the initiative to shake hands with Aldridge before the match. The two did not know each other. They once again confronted each other, and the friendship of the landlords should be taken. .
He has always said that Millwall is a popular promotion in looking forward to this game. Valencia must show all the courage to beat Millwall.
Aldridge is respectful of Cooper from the heart. Valencia was dug away a lot of the main force last summer, but this season’s performance is very brave. It is a good evidence to be able to reach the quarterfinals. With luck, it is impossible to go. here.
But with respect and respect, Aldridge’s expression changed, and his eyes contained fierce murderousness.
In the cruel green arena, someone must fall!
Defending the Champions League, whether it is for my disciples or myself, this is a supreme honor, and those who block me are justified.
