The Young Lion

The 32nd round of the Premier League started at the Lion's Cave Stadium.

Leicester City relegation is no problem, and won the League Cup in early March, this time let their players relax, Martin O’Neal does not want to put too much pressure on the players, after all, they are facing the league The most powerful Millwall, although it was they who eliminated Millwall in the League Cup, but that game, Millwall was clearly training.

In the past, the atmosphere in the stands was the highest in South Stand, but today is a little different. Around the stands, fans can be seen holding signs.

"Dean, come on!"

"Forever Mad Lion: Dean!"

"We are with you!"

...

Fans are learning that Dean Richards is saying goodbye to the game due to a strange illness, which makes them feel sorry, because Richards is an impressive player, Millwall entered the Premier League from the Premier League, plus Last year's double-win champion, Richards made more than fifty appearances for the team one after another. Every fan of the Lions firmly believes: Richards will be a reliable central defender in the future of the Lions.

From the first minute of the game, Millwall played very oppressive, the players were full of fighting spirit, and their attention was all on the field.

The slightly relaxed City of Leicester was quickly punished.

Larson is now becoming more and more ghostly, and Fleet Street has given him the nickname of Linghu. Especially, he now captures the gap between the full-back and the central defender. The impact is even more impressive. As long as there is a trace of neutral in the back line , He will be able to catch in the attack, and then, he will wait for the teammate with the heart to send the ball to his feet.

Nine minutes into the opening, Larson was such a running position. From the left wing diagonally into the heart of Leicester City, Nedvide straight ball arrived as scheduled and penetrated the entire defense line.

In the face of the goalkeeper, everyone thinks that the striker who has scored 31 league goals will choose to shoot himself, but Larson crosses the ball in the middle, and the follower Trezeguet kicks the goal. The ball is sent into the empty goal.

After the goal, Trezeguet ran to the sidelines and took off his jersey. The front of the white vest clearly read: Dean, come on!

The other teammates ran to stand on both sides of Trezeguet, pointing at the slogan on Trezeguet's chest, clenching their fists together and showing a firm look.

FIFA issued a "prohibition order" last year, which caused Trezeguet to receive a yellow card, but he didn't care.

Aldridge stood up and applauded the team's performance after scoring a goal, and immediately sat down.

Benitez is still a scholar fan. He is taking notes in the notebook and finds that Leicester City has no determination to win, so he chats with Aldridge on a small trip.

"I'm curious why Trezeguet will become the team's main iron player."

"Why do you ask?"

"Because he looks very general, the skills and speed under his feet, the two key ability conditions are not good, I think if you use Tony, Tony's ability to play will be very strong, because his physical conditions can make him in the penalty area. The central defender against any team in the Premier League."

Aldridge said lightly with his chin: "He is at the forefront, and the absolute speed does not have to be fast. The anti-offside depends on consciousness and starting explosiveness. Is the technology at the foot? Indeed, the turnover rate of David's forward pass is very high. High, will not give me a surprise after a flashy fancy goal, but, his position selection in front of the door, the involvement of running without the ball, the confrontation in the penalty area at the critical moment is first-class. When he put himself The best part can be done, he is the most suitable striker for Millwall, for example, now he will not try to pass the ball, it is not his strength, but his ability to pass back is getting more and more The stronger, give Pavel more opportunities. In addition, there is a statistical table in the computer in my house. I don’t know if you are interested in listening to this data."

"What data?"

"The striker's scoring rate and shooting rate. Maybe you don't believe it, but statistics from club scouts observing league opponents tell me that Trezeguet is the most efficient striker in the Premier League. Of course, he is not the one with the most goals. , But, do you know he hits the goal every 10 feet, how many feet hit the target?"

"..."

"7 feet."

"70% hit rate?"

"Yes, do you know how many goals he can score with a 10-foot shot?"

"This, two?"

"Doubled it, four. That is to say, if he had a three-foot shot in a game, he would basically score a goal."

Benitez looked pensive, and finally sighed: "I thought it was your tactical arrangement that highlighted the winger's scoring that caused him to lose out, and actually improved his efficiency."

Aldridge said lightly: "David is the least shot among Premier League strikers, but the efficiency is the highest. When Millwall's record is not good, the outside world is accusing him of disappearing on the court. In fact, those accusing David The people must not have come to the scene to watch the ball, they only watched the game broadcast or video, they could not observe David’s contribution to Millwall from the whole scene. He disappeared in the camera and had been tearing with the running position. The opponent's defense line creates space for his teammates, and it is precisely his role that appears in the camera infrequently, so that once he appears, then it must be the moment of the fatal blow. The effect on the field is that the two wingers threaten When the center is exceeded, the opponent’s defense will tilt the defensive center of gravity and beware of the two wingers. Then, when the center of attack is turned to David, the strength of defending him has also decreased, allowing him to score more easily and score very high. s efficiency."

The power of the Millwall front trident is to create opportunities for each other in the process of threatening elastic changes and score crazy goals.

When the game reached the 26th minute, the fans stood up, and everyone applauded with a solemn face, and the applause lasted for a whole minute.

Dean Richards’ jersey number is 26, and fans spontaneously use this behavior to pray and bless Richards.

Aldridge also took the initiative to stand up and applaud at this moment, followed by other coaches and bench players.

The live broadcast shot swept the audience, and the game commentator lamented.

Millwall has left countless classic games this season, double-arsenal Arsenal, double-living Liverpool, and six away goals to defeat Manchester United. They are unstoppable. They have left countless classic moments. And today, they have Created a touching scene.

Just three minutes after the applause of the fans stopped, Schneider assisted on the right and made a diagonal pass to the penalty area. Larson outscored the ball and put the ball into the goal. The score expanded to 2: 0.

Larsson after scoring a goal urged his teammates not to stop him, he ran to the bench, took the jersey thrown by Materazzi and held it high.

That's Richards No. 26 jersey.

The applause from the Lion’s Cave Stadium sounded again, and it couldn’t stop.

The fans were moved.

They can hardly imagine how united the mad lions are now.

Witnessing the disintegration of the Blackburn mercenary team, they were very afraid of Millwall’s success after the success of these players, but seeing their tearful actions on the court, the fans believed from their hearts: they love the ball Team, love teammates, they will stay here forever!

Leicester City is not strong, but Millwall wants to withdraw from the league as soon as possible, on the other hand, he also uses this game to pay tribute to Dean Richards, which makes them fight in ninety minutes Magnificent.

Shevchenko scored twice in the second half and locked the score at 4:0.

After the game, Aldridge invited Martin O'Neill to meet in the office.

Aldridge congratulated Martin O’Neal for winning the League Cup, which in turn wished Millwall the Premier League title.

"Aldrich, sell me someone next season."

Faced with such a proposal, Aldridge said unclearly: "Will Leicester City be listed before the summer transfer window in Leicester? Otherwise, you can afford to buy my players at a high price?"

Now is the stage of the Premier League club listing frenzy. Investment merchants use their poles to list in the club, dilute equity and so on. Many businessmen can make tens of millions of pounds of profits in three years. Everton, Aspen Don Villa, Manchester United and so on are typical.

There is also outside news that Leicester City is also preparing for listing financing, but there is no substantial progress.

Martin O'Neal shook his head: "Of course you can't afford your main player, but I want one for the substitute player."

"Talk about who it is first. Is it Glenshire?"

"It's not him. You said last time that you won't let him go, even on loan. I'm talking about the Italian center."

"Luca Tony?"

"Well, I have studied the personnel reserve of Lower Millwall. In addition to Trezeguet at the center, your usual substitute is the Dutch guy. If the Italian does not give him a lot of competition training, he will be abandoned in Mill. Wall, his type of center needs a lot of experience."

Aldridge sighed slightly.

O'Neill is right. Centers like Tony must improve their ability to compete in the penalty area through a large number of games, otherwise they may be abandoned.

"How would you use him?"

"If he comes to my team, I will build a tactic around him."

The two chatted for a while. In fact, O'Neill's coaching idea is relatively simple and clear. He counterattacks based on defense, but he can't play this way too often, too monotonous, and their strength is on the rise. Are they defensive? Not as strong as their team, what should we do then?

Tony, a strong center, can stand in the penalty area and hold the ball on his back. Whether it is British rushing or penetration, his role will be very significant, as Aldridge describes Makelele: absolutely Players with characteristics will not be blurred when used.

"But I don't want to sell him."

Aldridge was a bit worried about his money. After all, the club was burdened with the new stadium and the debt he borrowed from his brother, which was almost 200 million pounds.

O'Neill couldn't help crying and said, "If you don't sell, he is deserted on Millwall's bench. You won't be able to sell it if you want to sell it in the future."

"In this way, I will lease you half a season to see the effect. To be honest, if I sell him directly, he may not be willing to go to Leicester City."

"You're very cunning. I'll help you train the players. In the end, he will return on loan. Isn't the tactical system that I worked so hard to put an end to?"

"I think so, let him go to Leicester City for half a season. If he plays well and you are satisfied, then you can rent another half season. Wait until next summer, if he is willing to transfer, I Also make sure that it is not a wrong decision for him to go to you, then we can sit down and talk about the transfer."

O'Neill stared at Aldridge for a long while and shook his head with a wry smile: "Speaking of it, you just don't want to lose money. As you said, if he is doing well with me, then we will talk about his transfer next summer, the price will be Is it the same as this summer?"

Aldrich said seriously: "You should think this way. If you brought him in this summer, but he can't integrate into Leicester City, then your transfer is a failure. Rent first and buy at least you I have the bottom of my mind. Even if I spend a little more money next summer, I feel at ease and worth the money. It’s a bit gambling to spend money this summer. Can Leicester City afford to lose?"

O'Neill put down his glass and sighed: "I really convinced you that you should be a salesman. Well, in the summer, I will lease him first. For half a season, you pay the salary, the rental fee is 0. How?"

Aldridge thought for a while and said, "For our sake of being friends, Millwall will suffer a little."

"It's a loss of happiness that you eat."
