The Young Lion

"Through the wind, through the rain, your dream may be shattered, but moving forward with the hope in your heart, you will never walk alone, you will never walk alone..."

Even though English football hooligans are notorious, it is undeniable that there are people around the world who imitate English fans because there are fans who use action to interpret loyalty. Even if the decline of English football is low, there are still teams with the team. Fans who live and die together.

Anfield's stands in all directions were red, and fans held Liverpool's scarf high and sang the song "You Never Walk Alone".

In Aldrich’s previous life, he saw Liverpool’s game on TV. The Chinese commentator said that the song’s name was “You will never be alone”. Although the meaning is similar, the mood seems to be far away. Never being alone means always being accompanied, not being alone on the road is more or less unsatisfactory. For this reason, he thinks that the narrator is of very poor standards.

When he walked out of the player’s tunnel, he did not walk to the visiting team’s coach seat, but stood on the side of the court parallel to the center line, which should be the position of the fourth official, but he stood here first, with his hands on his hips and a serious face Looking around the stadium, it seems to want to imprint every fan who sings with a scarf in his eyes.

"What about the camera? What the hell's the camera? Aim him! He appears! Fuck, Rud. You don't aim the camera at the Hall within ten seconds, you won't be working tomorrow!"

In the live broadcast studio, the director of Sky TV roared angrily. He could overlook Aldridge's appearance in the box, but the camera had not followed.

The narrators Andy Gray and Martin Taylor have not yet started to work, but the two look at the Audric pointed in the camera and understand his perspective from all angles.

"Martin, what is he doing?"

"I guess he is feeling the atmosphere here."

"Maybe, this is not Old Trafford. This is Anfield. I hope he won't be frightened again. There are no female fans who will kiss, only hostile fans like fighters."

"I don't see it. It is probably the first time he came here. This is a game worthy of his memory."

"What do you think Millwall will do today? I mean, what kind of goals will they hold? Draw, or victory? It can't be a three-pointer anyway."

"Of course it is a victory. Aldrich needs a victory to motivate his players, otherwise how many boys on the team will listen to him? He is so young, he can only give victory, which will make the players die. Follow him!"

...

The Melanie family was also in the stands. Like other fans, they sang with their scarfs held high. When the song ended, the applause rang and continued.

Melanie's younger brother pointed to Aldridge on the sidelines and laughed: "Sister, your boyfriend is scared!"

Melanie pursed her lips and smiled, "Let him see the power of Liverpool. He must be scared and silly! Haha."

There was a fanatical cry from the KOP stands, and on the opposite side, Millwall fans from afar also clapped and shouted Millwall’s name, although this was not an energy equivalent. Contest, but there is still no one to stand down and the war in the stands will never stop.

On the sidelines, Aldridge took a deep breath after surveying Anfield, closed his eyes for a few seconds, then opened it again, showing a smile.

Anfield, I am finally here!

Not here to tour as a fan, but to fight here as a coach!

Great stadium, great stage, hotbed of great games!

With respect to the sages, Aldridge slowly walked towards the visiting coach.

In the past, when Wimbledon was a guest here, every player would spit on the "This is Anfield" brand in the Anfield channel to express contempt, Aldridge was very disgusted with such behavior.

Although football can do whatever it takes, he has his own bottom line.

He will inspire the players to fight in a fair and honest manner, to make the players understand that winning here is a glorious, rather than deceiving this field by deceiving themselves, that will only make the winning victory worthless.

Moreover, the founder of that brand is a great figure in the history of the Red Army: Bill Shankly.

Perhaps many neutral fans know this name because of the famous saying: football has nothing to do with life and death, football is higher than life and death.

This is quite wrong. Bill Shankley never said this. The original words he said in an interview are: Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I am very disappointed with this attitude. Determining football is more important than life and death.

In fact, combining context and interview questions, Shankly only expressed a positive attitude towards victory, rather than spreading it into a cold blood that ignores life after being misinterpreted.

Bill Shankly created the soul of the Red Army. His philosophy of victory has a gentleman style. He will use various psychological battles. For example, when the visiting team comes to Anfield, he will personally wait in front of the bus and then welcome the opponent with a high profile. In order to put pressure on the other party, but his bottom line is also very clear, can not tolerate the dirty means on the court, so one of Shankley’s most hated head coaches is the Inter Milan founder of the big international era. Leila.

Shankly pioneered the Liverpool boot room tradition and created a master of the king, as he himself, simple, passionate, tough, happy, and more or less romantic feelings.

During his past studies, Aldridge was full of respect for Shankly. He even thought that if he could go back to the sixties, he would be caught in a dilemma, whether he was overwhelmed by the Busby boy, or fell down. Under the charm of Hongshuai, it is impossible to like Manchester United and Liverpool at the same time if he is a British fan.

The appearance of the players from both sides made Aldridge return to reality from contemplation. He looked at Liverpool's players and showed a little envy in his eyes, because there are many talented people in this group of players.

22-year-old Jack Redknapp was even more popular than Manchester United's Scholes at this time, because at this time Little Redknapp had been selected for the England national team.

23-year-old Steve McManaman, if it is not an injury, why should England regret that Giggs is a Welsh?

20-year-old Robbie Fowler, Liverpool's "God", the young and famous Liverpool Golden Boy squeezed Ian Rush on the bench.

Although goalkeeper David James does not reach world-class standards, he can become an England goalkeeper in the future, at least his strength must be affirmed.

What makes Adrich sigh is that there are also characters from Millwall's youth training in Liverpool, left-back Neil Rudock, a fat-looking player who entered the Millwall youth team at the age of 15, At the age of 18, he was poached when he became famous. He returned to Millwall a few years ago and played for a short period of time. It is still in the same year.

Aldridge quickly withdrew his gaze, and fortunately, lost his life, envying others will never end, he just regrets that as one of the traditional three giants in England, Liverpool is a rigid and stubborn model, even in East London. When West Ham United started to introduce modern sports medicine to ensure the health of players, Liverpool always remained skeptical and resistant to advanced medicine, which ruined their hopes?

It's just that these people on the field now, Jamie Redknapp, Robbie Fowler, Rob Jones, who retired at the age of 27, and so on. It's not that the player has an injury and accuses the club of not taking care of the player, but later generations This generation of players have disclosed the poor level of Liverpool club team doctors. Even Redknapp was misdiagnosed, trained with broken feet for a long time, played, and then changed from a small injury that can be resolved by an operation into a comminuted fracture.

Moreover, there is a fatal factor in Liverpool’s failure to return to the top. The Red Army under Shankly is disciplined, as is Ferguson during this period. Lee Sharp fell from his own will and Ferguson couldn’t save him, so he sold him. To avoid spoiling other players, but what about Liverpool? Their geniuses have a nickname: spicy brother. This nickname is derived from their private life off-site.

There are two major enemies in a player's career, one is injury and the other is depravity.

Liverpool are both the same, so don’t complain about why the team is always talented, but can’t touch the top league champions.

Therefore, Aldrich’s team building philosophy is to avoid the obstruction of these two enemies. The advanced medical department, strict discipline within the team, and the three captains who live off the court are more disciplined, even if Materazzi is the fourth. Captain, the villain is on the court, and there is a good gentleman off the court.

Players from both sides set off and are ready to kick off.

"Audience friends, in the third round of the English Premier League, we will broadcast a live highlight of this round at Anfield for you. The Reds Liverpool play against the visiting Millwall. Maybe Millwall is not a team in our impression. Strong team, but Millwall, who played for the first time in the Premier League this season, has already shown a decent fighting ability. They first played a thrilling 5:5 with Manchester United on the road, and then easily defeated the Derby opponents at home in the last round. Arsenal showed great strength."

"Before the season, many ball critics thought that Millwall was a relegation team and worried about Millwall's time to adapt to the Premier League, but Aldridge's team smashed all doubts in two games. Millwall It’s a strong team, no doubt, but Liverpool is worrying. The first round was only a small win over the weak. Thanks on Wednesday, but the second round lost to Leeds United. Today at Anfield, they can win the crazy lion After 90 minutes of competition, I hope it will not be an unexpected ending."

"Introduce the starting list of both sides, Millwall's starting lineup is the same as the previous two games, no change... Liverpool's starting lineup is the goalkeeper: David James, defenders: Rob Jones, Mark Wright, John · Scalace, Neil Rudock, midfielders: Jason McCartil, John Barnes, Jamie Redknapp, Steve McManaman, striker: Robbie Fowler, Stan Colmore. Their 32-year-old veteran on the back line didn’t know if they would become Millwall’s main point, because the first scene against Manchester United, Bruce was attacked by Millwall. The mistakes have been repeated, and Collymore, who was dug from Nottingham Forest in the summer, did not quickly enter the state. He scored 24 goals in Nottingham Forest last season, but came to Liverpool, it seems that he and Fowler failed to shine a spark However, Millwall’s striker made people look forward to even more. Larson, who scored four goals in two games, is undoubtedly the contender for the Premier League Golden Boots this season. Manchester United’s £7 million failed to take him if this Larson was able to come up with dazzling figures this season. His value will rise. The topic is a bit far away. Well, Fowler of Liverpool has kicked off. Audiences, the game begins, let us enjoy the next red and blue war Right!"
