Although George still has a lot of work to do in the transfer market, such as working on the mind of Thong Klose himself, changing his preference for Bremen, and negotiating transfers with Manchester United for the likes of Carrick and Heinze, and using Ferguson's desire for the two to maximise Tottenham's interests, etc. But in general, George'www.biquge.info s focus during this time was on the upcoming FA Cup final. As for transfers, George has only drawn up a rough plan and handed it over to his subordinates to carry out the most basic enquiries and negotiations, and there has not been much substantive contact.

Only with more trophies will Tottenham become more attractive to players. Arsenal in later generations is the most typical negative case, although the Gunners can still guarantee Champions League qualification despite selling the main players in the team year after year, so that fans and media all praise Wenger, but there are never many first-line stars willing to join Arsenal, which is also part of the Premier League "BIG4". It's not because they don't have any hope of winning the title at Arsenal!

Compared to Arsenal, Barcelona and Real Madrid are clearly the strongest proof of this argument. Although there are many stars who have stopped their upward trend and even turned downhill after joining these two giants (such as Ziglinski, Sanchez, Shahin, etc.), there are still a large number of stars who are eager to get a call from Barcelona or Real Madrid every summer, and few people care if they will sit on the bench at Camp Nou or the Bernabeu. The reason for this is also very simple, that is, in Real Madrid and Barcelona, they have the opportunity to become the top stars in international football, and they have won the highest level of collective and individual glory as professional players!

Therefore, for Tottenham Hotspur now, beating Millwall and winning the FA Cup is close at hand, then they can have a very important weight when recruiting players in the future!

And so it was May 22, the day of the 2003-04 FA Cup final. On this day, the 74,500-seat Millennium Stadium in Cardiff was packed. Countless Millwall and Tottenham fans sat in the stands on all sides, desperately cheering on their respective teams!

Yes, despite the huge disparity between the two sides in the FA Cup final, with George leading Tottenham Hotspur finishing runners-up in the Premier League this season and Millwall on the other side being a League One side, it didn't stop England fans who have always been passionate about football from coming to the stadium. George even saw a number of Millwall and his own fans holding cardboard with the words "Buy tickets at a high price" outside the stadium, hoping to hand over a good fortune and buy tickets for this FA Cup final from scalpers or some fans who could not come to the stadium for some reason!

To be honest, it's not surprising that this kind of hard to get a vote would happen. After all, it's been a long time since fans of Tottenham Hotspur or Millwall have seen a team standing on the podium and lifting the trophy Tottenham may be better here, this season's Premier League runners-up and League Cup winners have satisfied Tottenham fans' desire for glory to a certain extent, and Tottenham and Millwall themselves are not mortal enemies, so they can still treat this FA Cup final rationally, and Millwall is different, they have been relegated to the second division before the establishment of the Premier League, they can be said to have taken the opportunity to win the FA Cup trophy this time can be said to be extremely important, not only gave up the previous few League One games, but also the main players ran to Cardiff early for field adaptation training, in order to increase the probability of beating Tottenham as much as possible！

Although the Millwall football hooligans who have been waiting for an opportunity to provoke the tournament have caused the tournament organizers to be tormented and the security of the game has to be strengthened again and again, it also shows how strong the football atmosphere in England really is. After all, if a second-division team meets in a domestic cup final, and that kind of thing happens in any other country outside of the UK, I am afraid that the underdog will not have so many supporters on the field, let alone a whole group of football hooligans.

It is precisely because England has the best football soil in Europe that it was able to break through the five-year ban of UEFA, lagging behind the mainstream European leagues in terms of technology and tactics, and on the verge of financial collapse, squeezing out the Bundesliga in less than a decade and returning to the ranks of Europe's top leagues.

You must know that after the outbreak of the Serie A in the previous life, the Italian team, whose appeal had declined sharply, did not ease up for a whole decade, and could only rely on the returning Milan duo and Juventus to barely hold on to the table, and only Juventus was left with one club to handle it in the later stage. In comparison, the speed at which English football has recovered and risen is clearly staggering!

That's why George feels quite unbelievable that the England national team is so popular every year in international competitions, but every time they go home early to fish - no matter what, the fans are your food and clothing, and when they arrive at the international competition, they will turn into soft-footed shrimp, worthy of the strong support of the fans all the time?!

Without further ado, let's take a look at George's line-up for this FA Cup final. Having lived in England for nearly two decades in this life, George naturally knew a lot about Millwall's brutal style and the notorious football hooligans. Therefore, in this game, George hid players such as Darren Anderton and Bierovka who are prone to injury, and sent Ribery, Cristiano Ronaldo, Luka Toney, Drogba, and other players who are either young and resilient, or physically strong enough to start!

For George's somewhat unagreed move, the players were naturally able to appreciate the good intentions of their own head coach, and did not have any opinions about George because of this - after all, anyone who knows a little bit about English football knows how strong Millwall's style of play is!

You know, when Millwall was just promoted to League One (England's top league at the time), even Liverpool, who was the hegemon of English football, was beaten by their fierce style of play. Therefore, Anderton and others, who are plagued by injuries, will naturally not use their careers to play with Millwall for a starting qualification.

Millwall players are not stupid, they also know very well in their hearts that if they play against the powerful Tottenham Hotspur in the game, then they can only be a dead end, and if they want to win, they can only play to their strengths and avoid weaknesses. As a result, under the tactics of former England international Dennis Wise, who is now the captain and manager of Millwall, Millwall established a strategic policy of hoarding heavy troops at the back, using brutal kicks and buckets to deal with Tottenham!

Less than 10 minutes into the game, Dennis Wise, who started the game, took the lead, and the once famous villain in the Premier League made a malicious foul on Cristiano Ronaldo and Michael Carrick respectively, in an attempt to make these young people in his eyes afraid to attack easily.

With Wise, the captain and head coach, he taught by his words and deeds, so in this game, most of the Millwall players followed the style of playing against people and not the ball, desperately stirring up the anger of the Tottenham players, trying to provoke the opponent in this way, so that the Tottenham players could not play at a normal level under the impetuousness, so as to achieve their goal of winning in chaos!

However, the Millwall players, or Dennis Wise's wishful thinking, did not pay off. Even if the game was faintly turned into a wrestling battle by Millwall, the Tottenham players did not get impatient because of this, and still controlled their emotions well, maneuvering around with their opponents on the field, constantly mobilizing Millwall's defense with cooperation and large-scale transfers, so as to find opportunities to score!

And it's no wonder. In any case, Tottenham players have just experienced in the league, and if they can't hold back in the face of this level of provocation, then how will they compete for the league title with Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal in the future?

In the 44th minute of the game, G. Neville, who assisted on the right side, passed a good ball, and unknowingly switched to the left side of the Ronaldo ghostly in front of the goal, and a clean header helped the team break the deadlock and open the door to victory for Tottenham!
