The Young Lion

Chapter 1139: Horror schedule!



Over the Stamford Bridge, there was a cloud again.

Abu was furious that the foundation of the excellent situation laid by the team\'s league match had disappeared after three months!

His rift with Mourinho also appeared in the newspaper!

The reason is that Shevchenko introduced by Abuli has not been reused!

Shevchenko, who played in a limited time, did not have the strength represented by his worth.

When Millwall reversed Chelsea to the top of the standings, the focus of Fleet Street was still on Chelsea. It seems that the outside world is not surprised by Millwall\'s reversal. Even if there were a lot of media backing Chelsea before, advocating that Chelsea can rule In Europe, following the mad lion, a blue dynasty was opened!

The media is always in the wind.

As far as news focus is concerned, Stamford Bridge has more news than Millwall, although it contains a lot of negative news.

Including the contradictions between generals and doubts about Mourinho\'s coaching ability stems from his inability to use Shevchenko, a top striker who is famous in the Premier League and famous in Serie A.

The conflict between Abu and Mourinho is naturally a topic of interest to the outside world.

Especially when the topic is hot, many players inside the Chelsea locker room have stood up to defend Mourinho and firmly support Mourinho, which has raised the level of news attention.

After all, there are still some players who have been left out and will try to "overthrow" Mourinho\'s internal **** at this time, so as to obtain a career turning point.

In the complicated situation created by such public opinion, the Times did not join in the excitement, and they pointed out the key factors of Chelsea\'s reversal more professionally!

"Although Chelsea, led by Mourinho, did not win the league title last season, but they got the team\'s highest score in the history of the Premier League and even the top league, it can be said that Chelsea had a successful but not glorious season. In the second season, the resistance they encounter will naturally rise. This is the most common situation in the top league. For example, some teams can only play well for one season. The second season clearly shows that the strength has not changed much, but the record has In view of the violent fluctuations, a common law that exists in the Premier League is that most newly promoted horses cannot survive the second season.

Millwall has been able to defend the league successfully in recent years, and they cannot ignore the positive changes they have made in each season. The sense of worry is very strong, but Chelsea lacks experience. Are they not performing well? At least in the competitive environment, it is indeed not good enough, especially when the league starts with a sweeping momentum, which makes other teams more panic. So, in the middle of the season, most teams have passed the comfortable state at the beginning of the season Afterwards, when starting to score every point, Chelsea\'s biggest problem also surfaced: they performed poorly in the tough game!

At one time, at least half of the Premier League teams would use the 4321 defensive counterattack formation created by Sir Hall when facing Millwall. This made Millwall difficult for a period of time, but Millwall survived and they responded. Very fast, this may be related to their failure to defend the Premier League for the first time in the summer of 1998. In the following season, Sir Hall attached great importance to the second year after the team won the championship and made a lot of what we can see. The adjustment and changes of the team made those who thought that Millwall had a good sense of pain when trying to snipe Millwall defending.

Chelsea probably thought that they did not win an important trophy to prove themselves, so the attention they attracted would not be too high. In fact, looking at their actions in the transfer market in recent years, they have even caused many European clubs to panic!

Mourinho\'s preparation for this season is not sufficient at present. At least, what should Chelsea do when Chelsea have not made a good sense to deal with the middle and lower teams to use the iron barrel array to deal with them?

Chelsea need positive changes. Now it is not about who is right and who is more important. Which player is more important. When the boss and coach, who is the team leader, they still have the opportunity to prove themselves, but first of all, they can not mess up! "

...

In the Premier League, the game is turbulent, and the season has not yet reached the final sprint, even the first half of the game has not been finished!

But most outsiders know that the most crucial moment of the Premier League competition this season has arrived!

If Chelsea has been chasing Millwall from the start as it did last season, even if it is now behind, people still have a wait-and-see or optimistic attitude towards Chelsea\'s future.

But this season\'s competition, the key confrontation is that Millwall is behind the big disadvantage of 9 points!

Even if it is a tie, the goal difference is ahead!

But for Chelsea, the psychological gap is too big, the impact is too strong, once they continue to fall behind, there may be a discouragement in the league, it is difficult to change roles, from the leader to the chaser, and then maintain the toughness of last season tenacious!

Aldridge ignored the outside news. Of course he knew that Chelsea had become the headline of public opinion. No matter positive or negative, Millwall was behind the scenes. Many gunmen writers in the media were publishing some powerful articles and reports in order to Make Chelsea the team on the cusp.

Don’t they want to be number one in the world?

Give you the world\'s first public opinion treatment!

Standing in this position, the outstanding glory is correct, but once there is a drop, the heavy pressure caused by countless people falling into the well is also extremely powerful!

Standing on the peak, why not walk the tightrope at high altitude?

Millwall is about to usher in the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage.

In view of the tightness of Millwall\'s schedule for a period of time in the future, Aldridge made a decision to send a half-reserve plus half-reserve team in the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage!

Take a look at their schedule in December.

Just finished playing the Premier League at the beginning of the month.

Number 6, visiting Porto.

On the 10th, he returned to the Premier League to continue playing in the away league, the opponent was Crystal Palace.

On the 11th, the Millwall team went to Asia, targeting Tokyo, Japan, to participate in the World Club Cup!

On the 15th, the first match of the World Club Cup.

No matter what the first game wins or loses.

On the 18th, either the three or four finals or the finals!

On the 23rd, the 17th round of the Premier League make-up!

Christmas Express starts on the 26th! First round.

On the 29th, the second Christmas Express!

31, the third Christmas Express!

If you look at the next month, then...

On January 2nd, continue the fourth game of the Christmas Express Battle. After the fight, the Christmas Express ends!

After the league truce was close to half a month, but after the 7-day recovery period, there will be a FA Cup battle in the middle!

It can be said that from December to January 2, in 33 days, Millwall has to play 10 games!

Excluding game days, Millwall simply has no recovery period with an average three-day interval!

This is also the reason why Aldridge was reluctant to apply for a league rescheduling when he participated in the European Super Cup at the beginning of the season, and the result of the team’s inadequate preparations in the summer but the poor start of the continuous play led to the unsatisfactory record.

The Premier League has always had a cruel schedule.

FIFA also came to join in the excitement, changing the tasteless Toyota Cup into the World Club Cup, only for commercial interests, but Millwall was overwhelmed!

If they have no experience and no strong team lineup, I am afraid that this month\'s terror schedule will drag Millwall down!

Therefore, Aldridge sent a lineup consisting of half-team substitutes and half-team reserve players when he went to the Dragon Stadium with the UEFA Champions League qualifying.

Can be called a doll soldier!

Almost all players in the reserve team have Millwall youth accounts. As long as they are not 21 years old, they can play for the Champions League on behalf of Millwall without registering!

The final of the Champions League group match is to deal with errands.

Aldridge didn\'t need any face. On the road, he made a group of players who were very strange to the outside world debut and then played a steady counterattack on the road.

Porto also have expectations for the qualification of the UEFA Cup, they want to beat Millwall at home, and then hope that Inter Milan can beat the Rangers, so that they will get the group third to impact the UEFA Cup.

However, at the Dragon Stadium, Porto paid the price first for their aggressiveness.

Perhaps they really underestimated the enemy, and saw Millwall dispatch a group of unknown players and then attacked regardless.

Although the Millwall players are unknown, there are still some town scenes in key positions, such as Neil in the guard, Ramor in the midfield, Moutinho and Verroso who played on the court, and May on the front line. West, there is Aguero, a teenager who plays center today.

The unseen youth players in other positions have nothing to say about tactical execution. They are working hard. They are stunned to resist the indiscriminate bombing of Porto and seized an opportunity in the first half. , Meguy assists Aguero to open the record!

The picture of Aguero and Messi running side by side on the sideline made Aldridge\'s spirits shock. An originally routine game, I saw this pair of Argentine twins running youthfully and passionately. what!

Porto played spirit after losing the ball, focused on defense, and patiently attacked Millwall\'s defensive barriers.

On comprehensive strength plus home advantage, Porto is completely stronger than Millwall\'s starting lineup today, but Millwall uses tactics to narrow the strength gap between the two teams as much as possible, but unfortunately, after resisting 80 minutes, it still hasn\'t Can hold.

In the end, Porto tied the score in 81 minutes!

The 1:1 score was maintained until the end of the game.

The Porto fans left with disappointment.

Because in another game in the same group, Inter Milan also qualify ahead of time, the battle is not strong, shaking hands with the Glasgow Rangers.

To the surprise of Inter Milan, they actually got the group first in this group!

They have 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Millwall is 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss.

Inter Milan may be happy to avoid many strong teams in the knockout draw.

Millwall felt irrelevant. The first team and the second team. Who would avoid the lottery? It’s just worrying and unnecessary.

However, the draw of Millwall caused an uproar after the game!
