The Young Lion

After Aldridge's team interview ended, the popular Yiwen interviewed the players in the team one after another during the training break in the next few days.

This made the atmosphere inside the team suddenly active. Compared to pre-match press conferences or post-match interviews, they were rarely able to be honest with the outside media, because after being familiar with the faction of Fleet Street, most players felt that the outside media Any questions to them are not well-intentioned, and they will find ways to misinterpret what they say, causing unnecessary trouble.

For example, if a player is asked about salary, no matter how the player answers, it will be interpreted as dissatisfaction with the wages by the outside world, triggering a "scandal" in the transfer market.

After the game of loss or draw, the player's remarks will become the focus, which arouses the players' sense of self-protection. When faced with the media, most of them are formulaic. It is nothing more than a few words and a fixed attitude.

But Yiwen’s interview is obviously from the standpoint of the club. The players also want to express their thoughts through this kind of interview. Whether it is grateful or ambitious for the future, only if they really think of themselves as a part of it. There is a desire to talk.

Southgate, as the captain, rightfully sat in front of the camera.

When asked by Ewen about his choice of Millwall, Southgate said frankly: "In fact, I never thought of joining Millwall, and I would not hypocritically say that I dreamed of joining here since I was a child, because in 1994 In the summer, I was the main player in Crystal Palace. The relationship between Crystal Palace and Millwall is well known. At that time, I was yearning for the Premier League and fighting with Crystal Palace. However, the boss gave me a top quote, Now it seems that the quotation is not high, but at the time it was not a small amount. The Crystal Palace Club agreed to the quotation without discussing with me, which made me feel abandoned. In that case, I don’t think I can stay in the Crystal Palace anymore. Then the boss personally persuaded me to join Millwall. On that day, I will never forget that at first I thought that the boss was a arrogant and arrogant guy. Reason told me: he Just talk big, don’t go crazy with him. But I was still convinced by him. I think that what impressed me at that moment is an irrational passion. This is also the most needed in football. It cannot be described by words. Yes, and this passion is a must for many successful teams. Like Manchester United, Liverpool, Ajax in the past three years, etc. Football is a very special field, whether it is a player or a coach, If you just think of it as a job, you will hardly succeed. The element of passion is one of the essential qualities of a successful person. This element is in the head and deeply infected me."

Ewen smiled and nodded. Aldrich did have this element. He made Millwall's football **** and wild. The strong fighting spirit of the players on the court showed the quality of the players that the public needs most.

"So how do you feel about Millwall's life two and a half years after you came here? What are your plans for the future?"

Southgate smiled and said, "After coming here, I felt that I improved very quickly and entered the England national team. The boss let me be the captain and I always have a strong sense of responsibility, which is very important to me. And, I am in a very united and competitive team, which makes us look forward to brilliant achievements, I have to admit that if I am in a mid-stream and downstream team, it will be difficult to maintain after a season Focus on the game, maybe get enough league points, the player will be slack in spirit, but here, no, from the first game of the season to the end of the season, we are full of faith to win every game, I hope to harvest a trophy at the end of the season, one, two, or more. In the past two years, we have been improving. There are so many good teammates around me, which also inspired me to move forward, otherwise it will not be worthy of this excellent. Team, last summer, I became a sinner in England. At that time, I just wanted to escape, but the boss appeared in front of me for the first time. He paid more for me than I had imagined. It made me rejuvenated and firm. It’s been a difficult time, but it’s also my most precious experience. Now, I can calmly face all difficulties and help my teammates in a difficult situation. The role? In the future? I want to play here forever, fans, teammates, and bosses, these are the three most important reasons I never thought of leaving, Millwall will win the first league title this year, although The league is not over, but I believe we will not give our opponents any chance. We will play every game well and then play the European Championship next season. That is the stage of my dreams and the stage that the team aspires to. We can’t wait. Want to compete with the top European teams."

Hearing his rhetoric, Yiwen nodded affirmatively. There are many messages that can be reflected from the player's mouth, which includes the pursuit of the whole team.

"You said that the reason why you want to play Millwall forever includes head coach Aldridge. Is there any other reason besides introducing him to cultivate you?"

Southgate chuckled and said: "There are many reasons, and it is not clear at the moment. Mature, he looks young, but the style of behavior is completely incompatible with his age. You can hardly see him when he is anxious, when he wins. I will praise you with restraint. When you fail, he will make you forget the shadow and pressure of defeat. The word he often hangs on his mouth is: business as usual. I think this is the reason we firmly believe that we can succeed, victory At the time, everything is still the same, continue to win, when losing, don’t immerse yourself in the past, you should focus on the next game, and the faith to pursue victory will not be shaken."

...

Yiwen interviewed other players next, most of them expressed their gratitude for Aldridge's cultivation, and also had their own understanding of Millwall's culture, especially foreign players, who were inspired by the enthusiasm of the fans here. Shocked, even fascinated here.

When asked about topics related to Aldridge, the players reacted differently.

Nedvide said: "The boss is an excellent patient coach. He will never get angry with players for no reason. Even if the team loses, he will analyze the reasons for the loss rationally. If he reprimands a certain player, It must make sense. The coaches in our team have an objective statistical system. In every game, the coaches of the first team will score each player's performance on the field. This is not a rigid standard. For example, against some strength is not as good as ours. Teams, coaches will have higher requirements for you, think that your performance should be 8 or 9 points, and when you play against a stronger team than us, you can show a 6-point pass level, and the coaches will be satisfied If you have 7 points and 8 points, you will be praised. On the contrary, if you only score 6 points against a weak team, then the boss will criticize you, and you can't refute it. The boss's diligence and wisdom is what makes me feel admired and willing to always work for him. His professional attitude inspires us to move forward, which is very important."

Larson said, "Wow! Yeah, he redefines my role and ability on the court. I used to think I was a point forward, but here, I am more free on the court and I can do More, I am improving every season, our performance is unmatched, as a striker, I scored many goals in cooperation with my teammates in the game, and many of them are classic goals that are never tiresome when looking back. Let's enjoy the game and have fun. I see the outside world always talking about how easy they are to score goals. I think it's superficial because I don't think other coaches can make a team The offensive game is so rich and varied, why exclaim? Because he is only twenty

Trezeguet's gratitude for Aldridge in the interview was overwhelming, and he was full of praise when talking about Aldridge.

"Unparalleled coach, he will surely become the greatest coach in history, yes, I think so, even if people laugh at me for not seeing the world, but I think that if you give the boss time, he will become a legend in the coaching world. It is stressful for me to play under him, but it is more enjoyable because I will not be confused. Some teammates just wanted to give me some experience when they first came to the team. I will tell them: If you don’t know what you should What do you do, then go to the boss, don’t think about anything, what the boss asks you to do, you just do what you want, and then you will find your value. I am not saying that the boss is an unreasonable person On the contrary, he likes to reason with me the most, and even I am a little annoyed. For a while, he told me: David, I need you to be able to provide assistance to teammates on the front line. Then, I started to actively defend, head I’m still not satisfied, he said: I have to give some assistance to my teammates during the offense. I don’t understand why, because I am a striker, my job is to score goals, but the boss told me a lot of tactical principles, to be honest, I did not Understood, but after a few games, I did what he said, and then I understood that now, I can cover my teammates, and at the same time, I scored more goals than the same period last year. The boss will be higher Happy to tell me why, the threat of striker partners gives me more space and the like, I tell the boss: You only need to tell me what to do, and I will do it, which is enough."

In a series of interviews, Yiwen found that she didn't seem to notice that Aldridge has so many characteristics. After all, each player's perspective is different. Like Makelele, his gratitude to Aldridge is more out of Yu was appreciated.

His role in defense is considered to be the key to the team’s success. Aldrich tirelessly recommends him to the national team, which is even more touched by Makelele, and recently the French national team has begun to call Makelele. Signs, he feels that he is an important person who is absolutely valued in Millwall, which gives him a strong sense of team ownership.

Players such as Schneider and Phillips felt the gratitude of the encounter. The former thought he wanted to play in the German regional league in the summer of 1994. The latter was abandoned by the Premier League youth training and fell into a low-level amateur club.

In an interview, the other team members were full of hope for the club’s prosperity and future prospects. As a part of witnessing the rise of Millwall, everyone is full of motivation every day and wants to personally put this little ball in the past The team shaped into a behemoth.

The video of the team interview has not yet been released on official TV. It is expected that Millwall TV will be officially launched this summer, and the text record has attracted widespread attention immediately after its release on the official website.

This directly led to the official website being paralyzed in the first week of its launch...
