Coventry, Bradford, Ipswich, Hamburg.

Millwall scored 2 wins and 1 draw in the three rounds after the victory over Liverpool. The second game of the UEFA Champions League first group stage interspersed in the middle. They slaughtered the visiting Hamburg 5:0 at the Lion King Stadium.

Playing relegation teams in the league, the technical and tactical needles are not so strong, and they have returned to the tough battle. Only three games have unfortunately achieved a draw, also because of the Champions League in the middle of the week to go away.

The League Cup fell earlier this year and was eliminated by Liverpool. Metzelder was blown out by Owen. At the same time, Gerrard also completed a wonderful play, which made Pedretti suffer a lot when attacking.

After the cup was out, Aldridge didn't care much.

After finishing the match with Ipswich, FIFA match day is coming again.

Aldridge, which was automatically ignored in the past, continues to be the focus.

Mo said that on Fleet Street, all England fans focused on him.

The new England National Team roster is waiting to be released.

Unlike the other half of the World Cup European zone qualifiers, this FIFA match day will play two rounds of group matches. England has only 4 opponents in the same group. During this period, there will be a friendly match and a third round of group matches. The opponent is the weaker Albania.

When Aldridge took office more than a month ago, he suggested to the FA to contact friendly opponents.

The FA didn't want the laborers to mobilize people to play away friendly games, meaning that Aldridge had just taken over the team. It was easier to boost morale, abuse a dish, and then play in the qualifiers.

But Aldrich insisted that they contact his friendly opponents, including Italy, Spain and other teams with only 5 teams in the same group, and there is no problem with the schedule.

The FA didn't dare to go to Italy. They were the runner-up of the European Cup anyway, and finally contacted Spain to finalize the friendly match.

The schedule of this FIFA match day in England is to train in London, fly to Spain the day before the friendly match, and return to London immediately after the friendly match to prepare for the qualifiers that will follow.

Before Aldridge attended the press conference, the England national team announced a new national team roster.

Goalkeepers: Seaman, James, Robinson.

Defenders: Gary Neville, Mills, Phil Neville, Southgate, Ferdinand, Campbell, Brown, Ashley Cole, Bridge, Carragher.

Midfielders: Bart, Lampard, Gerrard, Scholes, Beckham, Barry, Joe Cole, McManaman, Hargreaves.

Forwards: Irving, Husky, Alan Smith!

A total of 25 people.

After Adams withdrew from the national team, 30-year-old Hiller also withdrew from the national team, 34-year-old Keon was not recruited, and Manchester United’s Cole was also abandoned...

When the outside world saw this new list, they were all confused.

Who is Hargreaves?

Is it okay to bring three strikers?

Also, Alan Smith, when he played against Leeds United at Millwall last season, he blatantly spit at Aldridge on the sidelines. He was later fined by the FA for being overweight, okay? !

At the press conference, Aldridge answered questions from reporters about the lineup.

"Hargreaves is a youth player of Bayern Munich. Probably two years ago, when Millwall played against Bayern Munich, the youth team between us discovered him. I have persuaded him to play for England. The England national team played. This season he started playing in the first team of Bayern Munich. He has great potential. He is a role player in England at this stage, but he is still young and needs to further improve his strength."

"Strikers? I think three are enough. As long as not all three strikers are injured, they can't play. Alan Smith? There is no problem between me and him. If you think there is, then you are questioning my professional qualities."

"Goal? My goal is simple. I train well and see the results through a friendly match. Then, I win the game against Albania. The rest will be discussed in the future."

...

Before taking office, Aldridge called very loudly, and when he took office, he seemed to be well received.

But after taking office, huge public pressure came, and the outside world seemed to have changed the muzzle. If Aldridge made a slight mistake, they would wish to immediately cast him off, not only to see his joke, but also estimate his heart There are also a few people who maliciously expect him to be infamous.

Ride the donkey to see the sing book, and wait and see!

In the training of the national team in London, Aldridge directly appointed him at the Leo training base, and said generously to the FA: Free rent!

The FA has leased Wembley to Arsenal this season, but the issue of Wembley’s reconstruction has been put on the table, lack of money, need money, open source and throttling, can save a sum of money, even if you know the deal Millwall There is no compensation for steady gains, but it is still a favor to make Aldridge succeed.

The national team training will of course attract attention from the outside world, which will help increase the popularity of Millwall. As for the small rent, you don’t have to worry about it.

Twenty-five England internationals came to the Leo training base. Some people were unfamiliar with it, some people were familiar with it, and there were places to stay. The building had complete training facilities. The rating was very high long ago.

They packed up their simple outfits, put on training sportswear, and came to the training ground. Aldrich hadn’t appeared yet. Klinsmann took the other members of the coaching staff to get to know the players one by one and introduce them to them. Responsible for the main training work.

Aldridge didn't be late, just came the next step, he had a report from the medical department in hand, and after these internationals came to the training base, he had a simple medical examination.

The situation is a little optimistic.

The defenders have no problems and the midfielders are passable, but the forwards, especially Irving, suffered a little injury in the new season. After he was injured, he immediately attacked Liverpool and did not fall. The physical condition was not particularly ideal.

Aldrich came to the training ground with a report. The players stood in two rows. Even though they were not as well-armed as the military, at least no one had the appearance of a stern look.

This is the first time the new coach of the Three Lions has gone to the national team to meet. 25 faces are presented in front of Aldridge. The eyes are different, with fanaticism, expectation, calmness, and confusion.

Aldridge said tepidly: "I believe you all know who I am, I will not introduce myself, and you should also know the coaching staff. I advocate humanized management. Here, if anyone has questions, please To speak frankly and openly, like men, we talk directly, don’t hide in our hearts, don’t speculate about the consequences of communication, and we will solve the problem together. First, when you come to the national team, the first thing you want to forget is where you belong. The color of the club’s jerseys, you play for different teams, there may be conflicts and disputes on the field, no matter what, forget it, put on the shirt of the England national team, you are teammates, you should trust each other, mutual Helping the group, what is the most important of the group? Communication and tolerance, everyone has their own ideas, you can’t expect your teammates to read your mind, when you need your teammates to understand you, please tell your teammates, only one can Only a team that communicates freely inside can condense the basis for cooperation, instead of 11 players with different ideas fighting alone on the court. What I need is a strong team, a team that all of you gather together!"

Aldridge's opening remarks made players look at each other.

The hatred of the jersey color is very common in the national team, familiar with the Spanish national team Barcelona and Real Madrid's opposition is the most obvious.

In the England formation, the contradiction between Liverpool and Manchester United is the most profound. The club is the enemy.

The good news is that Liverpool have not many players in the national team. At least Beckham can assist Irving. This kind of cooperation between Manchester United players and Liverpool players is difficult to see at a certain time. Now, Odrich The situation is not bad.

"At the end of the year, we don't have much time in the national team. During this period of training and competition, I don't have many requirements. What should I observe in the club, the same is true in the national team. The following points I asked for, First, during the national team training competition, no players can enter or leave the entertainment venues, especially nightclubs. You should use the time outside the training competition to take a good rest. If you can’t restrain yourself, then please leave. Second, you can’t participate. For business activities, I need the team to prepare for the national team in a quiet, serious, and dedicated manner. This is the highest goal. Any off-site factors must not affect your distraction. Third, the national team’s problems are resolved internally, and the national team is secretly disclosed. The information of the room is the same as the club, and here, no traitor is needed."

Aldrich set the military regulations and did not talk about training or laziness. It seemed to be a pediatrics and a play.

Pulling out the armband of the captain of the England national team from his pocket, Aldridge walked in front of Southgate and handed him the armband. The other players all looked at Southgate.

"Gares has played for the national team since 1995. He has won many honors in the club and has rich top-level experience. I can honestly appoint him as captain because I know him and understand his fighting spirit. With the will, I am sure that he can be a good captain and serve the England national team. If some of you feel that he should not be the captain, say it now, or, do some of you recommend yourself that you can be a better captain than him? ?"

Captain of the England national team, this is a glory to the English players.

The other players looked at each other and were not convinced?

Why didn't you accept it?

People hold three league championship trophies, three European championship trophies, and countless other small awards. This is not convincing. Isn't it ridiculous?

Feel free to come up with some evidence and compelling reasons!

Millwall, the captain of the strongest team recognized by the European club as the captain of the national team, what can be questioned?

Aldridge also announced the appointment of the captain at the press conference. Fleet Street didn’t think there was a problem. He didn’t even ask. It was logical.

Of the 25 people recruited by England in this issue, who is more suitable as captain than Southgate?

The internationals began to applaud, congratulations to Southgate, at the same time, it can be regarded as a formal ceremony for the new captain.

After everyone's applause ceased, Aldridge finger Beckham said: "David, you are the deputy captain, please lead Gareth by example."

Beckham gave a charming smile and asked, "There is a question, what should we call you?"

"Anyway, um, just call the coach, I don't really care about this."

Aldridge replied casually.

There are clubs called bosses, boss bosses, and MANAGER is also very common.

"Now, you do warm-up activities first, today we have more training content, don't be injured due to insufficient warm-up."
