1114 Bad luck beard
3 more per day this month.?――
Millwall's squad is close to 'perfect', so there is no need to make waves in the transfer market.
Compared to their north London neighbours, Arsenal were not particularly defeated last season, as they at least picked up a significant trophy: the FA Cup.
However, it should be noted that in that difficult 12o minutes of hard battle with Manchester United, Arsenal has lost the domineering on the field, and even the delicate and smooth technical dominance style, and was almost suppressed by Manchester United throughout the game, however, Manchester United lacked luck, and the goal was lacking in 12o minutes, and finally hated the penalty shootout.
After the departure of Patrick Vieira, the shortcomings of Arsenal's soft midfield were gradually exposed, and in the summer, Arsenal's heavyweight reinforcement was to strengthen the midfield.
Born in Eastern Europe and known as the "New Nedved", Hleb moved from the Bundesliga to Arsenal, and Arsene Wenger recruited Alexander Song from his native France, but the young Song will not play an important role in the Gunners' plans for this season, not even the role of soy sauce.
Arsene Wenger, an idealistic seeker, seems to have begun to weaken the once tough and terrifying Gunners, especially in midfield, as if he was pursuing a delicate and picturesque attack, rather than trying to replicate iron-waisted combinations such as "Vieira + Parlour" and "Vieira + Gilberto Silva".
Arsenal meet Millwall at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales.
Before the Community Shield began, Aldrich's previous bearded image had been "ridiculed" by Fleet Street.
For example, what does not conform to his image as a young marshal, the subversive impact is too strong. Or to put it simply, he deliberately pretended to be deep and pretended to be vicissitudes or something.
By the time he attends the pre-match press conference. He has become the image of a faint beard. This is easier for people to accept, and in terms of image and visual sense, it is much better, and the charming and handsome young marshal is back.
On the Community Shield, Aldridge said lightly: "Last season we persevered to the end and made new successes, we need more time to rest, it's a shame. Our summer preparation hasn't been very good, so the short-term plan is to give the team's main players more time to prepare and get back to their best physical and competitive shape. I think it's time to test the youngsters and some of the players in the squad who were very young last season have to give them the opportunity to play in big games, feel the atmosphere, withstand the pressure and gain more experience, so we'll see. ”
What is Arsenal's assessment of the new season?
'Arsenal have always been Millwall's main rivals. Now they are vibrant, like Cesc Fabregas. Senderos, Van Persie and other players represent the future of Arsenal, although the outside world believes that Millwall's overall strength is stronger than Arsenal, but we can't ignore the fact that in the league competition, Millwall is more eye-catching than other championship teams, beating the defending champion is what many teams are willing to try, what if they win? That could be even more exciting than winning! ”
That's Aldrich's big truth.
In addition to the championship team, other teams play Millwall, and a draw may mean victory!
But maybe when you meet Arsenal, you may have the idea of giving it a go, and maybe you really get three points?
From a technical and tactical point of view, do the giants like the opponent to defend to the limit or do they like the opponent to attack?
The answer is clear: of course, it is better if the opponent dares to attack.
Aldridge fielded a large number of young players in this Community Shield.
Jose Moutinho, José Veloso, Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, Baines and others were all on the pitch, and even Sergio Aguero was called on for the first team and came off the bench in the second half of the Community Shield.
Millwall is really here for training.
Arsenal is the main force, and it is still mainly defensive.
They didn't have much advantage on the field, at least when they played Millwall, the new generation of core Fabregas that Wenger supported was not yet on fire, but he was not left behind, and it could only be said that he couldn't control the scene.
Millwall are missing a group of experienced big players, especially losing their rhythm and losing patience in a dense defence.
Messi's breakthrough was impressive, but it couldn't decide the game yet.
Sergio Aguero's substitution did not surprise everyone, he is a small man, and he still needs a certain amount of adaptation, after all, he suddenly came to the extremely fierce top arena, and the confrontation was really big.
Villa, on the other hand, were not at their best and missed two good chances.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who appeared at the last moment, also did nothing and seemed a little absent-minded.
Although everyone knows each other on the field, it is difficult to play at the best level in the high demands of breaking through dense defenses with a squad of 11.
A 9o minute draw ended with no extra-time in the Community Shield and went straight to the penalty shootout.
Aldridge witnessed one of Millwall's most tragic penalty shoot-outs on the sidelines!
3:O, defeated!
The penalty kick was played in three rounds!
He discharged the penalty list, and all the penalties were missed in the first three rounds!
Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to hit the plane.
Villa sent the ball directly into the arms of the opposing Lehmann.
Messi's unlucky penalty bounced off the crossbar, or maybe he was already under tremendous pressure when he came out.
Arsenal unexpectedly fought hard for 9o minutes and won so easily in the penalty shoot-out!
Arsene Wenger couldn't stop laughing.
He hopes that this season will allow many young players to grow up quickly, and to grow, of course, by winning, which is the stimulant that stimulates young players.
It's just that Arsene Wenger probably didn't expect that last season's FA Cup and the new season's Community Shield would be the starting point for him to go without a title in the next decade.
Aldrich doesn't care much about the failure of a Community Shield, and since it's a training, you have to be conscious.
He felt that the problems reflected in the Community Shield game were very good, and the condition of the players and the shortcomings of the team's young squad would attract the attention of the coaching staff.
It's just that Fleet Street made a fuss about his beard after the game, which made him a little unbearable.
What a "bad luck beard". What a "failed change" or something. Aldrich was angry and laughing.
He didn't bother to respond to the media.
Outcome. Things are unfolding in a direction he didn't expect.
At the same time, there will be a World Cup next summer, veterans like Larsson and Nedved, on the one hand, the national team has entered the final moment in the fight for the World Cup, and on the other hand, it is to prepare for a rainy day. It is necessary to save strength for the World Cup, and in terms of use, the club will think more about them, protect them as much as possible, and use them very carefully.
Millwall, the defending champions, played a mess in August.
In four games, the main team played two games, the opening match on the 13th, and the third round on the 24th, with one win and one draw in the two games. The record is okay.
However, the substitute team played the second round on the 2o day and the fourth round on the 27th, and handed over a poor record of one draw and one loss.
After four rounds of English. Millwall only have five points, but what about the teams?
Win all four battles, have 12 points!
And it's two teams, both of which are direct rivals to Millwall.
Manchester United and Chelsea are neck and neck in the standings, and as soon as the league kicks off, they are seven points clear of Millwall!
Fleet Street was excited.
There have even been media outlets with the eye-catching headline "The Fall of the Wild Lion Dynasty"!
Aldridge was furious, not because the media exaggerated the negative significance of Millwall's record, but because the media chattered about his beard for a month!
"Bad Luck Beard" has become Aldrich's most hated one since he became a nickname!
A calm and objective analysis of the team's declining performance is actually clear at a glance.
On the 24th, Millwall was going to play the third round of the English game, and the main team only got a draw.
It's an unsatisfactory table.
Why?
Because on the 26th, Millwall went to Monaco to play the European Cup!
The opponents are league rivals Liverpool, who led Liverpool to a return to the UEFA Cup last season.
Aldridge sent the main team to play this game in the European Cup, and won the game 2-1 without danger.
Then, the team returned to London non-stop to play the fourth round of England on the 27th.
Why didn't they adjust the schedule?
Millwall could have applied to the FA to reschedule the fourth round to a different time.
Millwall, however, did not do so.
The reason is a bit complicated, the "far-sighted" Aldridge takes into account that Britain does not have a winter break, Britain has a double cup competition, England has compressed the schedule this season in order to squeeze the time for the national team to prepare for the World Cup, and, damn FIFA.
They changed the Toyota Cup to the Club World Cup.
In December, Millwall used to play the Toyota Cup in previous years, and they just went to play one game, but now that it has changed to the Club World Cup, they have to play two games!
A semi-final, a championship or runner-up final, or a third- or four-place final!
If Millwall apply to the FA for a change in fixtures, they could wait until next month's European competition, which could disrupt their plans.
It's been like this in previous years.
So on the 24th and 26th, the main lineup played two games in a row, and when the game was finished on the 27th, they had to go to the national team, and the players in the main lineup were all important figures in the national team.
After 38 rounds of England and 4 rounds, some media dared to say that Millwall had failed to defend the title and the dynasty had fallen?
Aldrich just laughed at this, laughing at the media sensationalism and shamelessness!
But Millwall lost the Community Shield, and the league failed to win in 3 rounds and lost 7 points to blame Aldridge's beard, which is unbearable!
He decided not to change the image of the beard at least until the end of the season, and when the season is over, let everyone see if he should bear the name of "bad luck beard". (To be continued!)
