1197th Historic Handshake!

Early in the morning, Aldrich woke up from his sleep, and it was just dawn. I don't know if it was because there was no European War, his work was easier than before, so he went to bed early at night and woke up early in the morning.

Putting his arm on his chin and looking down at Ivan beside him, he stretched out his hand and gently brushed away the hair that fell on his face. Ivan turned over in a daze. Putting on sportswear, when he was about to go out, he saw Bonnie standing on the stairs dragging a large doll. Every time he saw Bonnie dragging or holding that doll, Aldridge felt awkward, because the doll was It was a birthday present that Kaka gave him before, the shrunken q version of Aldrich, after taking it home, it became Bonnie's toy, and they were inseparable most of the time at home.

Aldrich raised his finger at her as a silent gesture, Bonnie covered her mouth with her right hand, blinked her big smart eyes, and asked softly, "Dad, where are you going?"

Aldrich squatted down in front of her and smiled, "Go for a run? Shall we go together?"

Bonnie rolled her eyes, pretended to yawn, shook her head as if she wasn't awake, and then walked towards her room again.

"Little slob, I'll let you go today."

This daughter is really very different from her two brothers. Bert and Earl are both athletic boys, and they can't be idle at all. On the contrary, Bonnie stays lazily in her room for a while except practicing piano at home. After watching the animation, Aldridge noticed that she had gained a lot of weight, and he took her to exercise no matter whether she listened or not.

Leave home for a jog in a nearby park and get some fresh air. Aldridge wasn't listening to the music. He needs to think.

When the new season is about to start. Ronaldo and Messi did not submit a transfer application, nor did they publicly express their willingness to leave the team in front of the media. Before that, Aldridge was hurt a little, but now he has at least some maneuvers. At least, he has not completely broken his heart.

However, the window paper still needs to be pierced. Aldridge plans to have a frank and honest talk with them for the last time after returning to the club today.

Back home, Yiwen had already prepared breakfast. She also woke up earlier, and Aldridge drove to work alone after having breakfast at home.

Probably because he slept too long, even after jogging in the morning, he still felt a little lazy. He bought two cups of coffee on the way, gave a cup to the doorman when he came to the club, and walked into the office with a cup of coffee.

The Community Shield will be played two days later. Today's training will start at 10 am. Aldridge will arrive at the club at 8 o'clock because he has an important meeting this afternoon. He wants to sort out the information.

8:25,

Two cars drove into the Leo training base. The doorman was drinking the coffee sent by Aldridge. He was surprised to see this scene, because for the first time he saw Messi and Ronaldo came to the club almost one after the other, and it was still so early. It's famous, but it's too early today!

After parking the car in the parking lot, Cristiano Ronaldo in casual attire and Messi in casual attire got out of the car at the same time. The two parking spaces were separated by four parking spaces. The two stood in place and stared at each other.

After about 20 seconds, the two walked together and walked towards each other.

When the two stopped facing each other, they stretched out their right hands at the same time, held them and looked at each other with a faint smile.

In this smile, it seems that the haze of the past few months has been swept away.

It's a pity that no one around was able to record this scene with a video camera or camera, otherwise, it will definitely become a nostalgic classic in the future.

The two knocked on the door of Aldrich's office together. Aldrich had just sorted out some materials, and at this time he was standing in front of the window overlooking the landscape. This is also a work habit he has developed to avoid overwork.

Messi and Ronaldo, who opened the door and entered the office, saw Aldrich standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. At the moment when the sun was rising, orange light shone into the room, making Aldrich look golden.

The two closed the door, walked to the desk together, and said in unison: "Boss, good morning!"

Hearing the tone of the two greeting each other and the scene of the two coming together, Aldrich seemed to realize something, a smile rose from the corner of his mouth, his expression seemed to be clear, and his mood suddenly jumped for joy, and he nodded to them.

 …

In the afternoon, Millwall trained as usual. When Aldridge came to the training ground with his arms around Ronaldo and Messi in the morning training, the teammates also realized that the discordant factors in the team had completely disappeared. Captain Dro Xi bowed his head and cursed softly, "You brat."

It is not an exaggeration for these two people to have some personal interests. After all, their talents and abilities are obvious to all. Sacrifice and dedication are too noble. The stronger the ability, the stronger the capital that can be obtained.

In the afternoon, Aldridge handed over training to new assistant coach Mauricio Pochettino.

In the summer, Millwall's player lineup has not changed, but the coaching team has undergone tremendous changes.

Villas-Boas resigned and returned to Portugal to take charge of Porto.

Blanc left and returned to France to take charge of Bordeaux.

Stella Marcioni stayed on to take over the work of Villas-Boas. In the new phase of assistant coach recruitment, Pochettino, who had recently retired, came here especially. This man had personally experienced the relationship with Aldrich as the main force of Argentina in the 2002 World Cup. Argentines with experience in fighting against each other have admired Aldridge for a long time. At least that Argentine fiasco was not only Pochettino, but also had a great impact on Simeone and other Argentine players. It is almost unforgettable.

Ever since, Pochettino became a member of Millwall's new coaching staff.

Compared with the previous coach, there is one less coach, but Millwall has no Champions League tasks this season, so it is not a big problem to lose one coach, and the coordination of work has quickly adapted to the current situation.

Aldridge waited for the arrival of a group of people in front of the office building.

The media flocked outside the training base, and two cars drove into the Millwall training base.

The protagonist who came out of the car briefly greeted the reporters and walked into Millwall's training base.

They are FIFA people.

But the person who led the team was Beckenbauer.

Regarding the moment when Millwall withdrew from the European war and took practical actions, on the cusp of the storm, Millwall and UEFA were completely opposed. FIFA sent a team to coordinate the matter. I hope this matter can be properly resolved. If it goes on, it's not good for anyone.

Aldridge greeted Beckenbauer in person outside the office building, and the two walked into Aldrich's office together.

Regarding the UEFA general election a year and a half ago, Johansson failed to hold the European base. Although Beckenbauer was "promoted", he was actually put on the shelf. Regarding this situation, Beckenbauer felt embarrassed. Maybe a little ashamed.

However, Aldrich didn't hold it in his heart, thinking that the history that had already been settled was meaningless.

He greeted Beckenbauer warmly, and even opened a bottle of good wine in the office. The meeting was not as formal as expected. Although other accompanying officials wanted to participate, Beckenbauer directly turned him away. Beckenbauer The emperor still had some majesty, so no one dared to protest if they were asked to wait outside.

Beckenbauer was originally in office, and he was quite disheartened. But at this time, I saw a turning point!

Since Blatter recently wooed him, they gave him some empty checks to allow him to reconcile the "civil strife" on the European side. Beckenbauer knew what was going on in Europe, and Blatter was on edge.

Because Platini is losing control of the situation.

Therefore, Beckenbauer's trip is considered to be a double act. He just sat down in Aldridge's office, raised a glass of wine with Aldridge and had a sip, and then handed over UEFA's hole card.

"They intend to give g14 some benefits in exchange for g14's concessions. Once g14 is tempted, Millwall's situation may be completely isolated."

As expected.

Aldrich has this awareness.

Especially considering that it is the summer of 2007, half a year after the original history, g14 will announce its disbandment.

Platini's big stick plus sweet dates, coupled with the fact that g14 is also divided, the existence of g14 is much weaker than before, and there is no need to continue to survive as a cancerous vampire in the eyes of a civilian team.

Now is a critical fork in the road.

Should g14 compromise with UEFA and accept their olive branch, or do they have other options to gain more benefits.

Aldridge touched his chin and asked, "What exactly is it?"

"The big lawsuit last year, er, was the financial compensation for the club when the player was injured in an international game, and UEFA was willing to sign an agreement with g14 to protect the club's interests when the player was called up by the national team. The initial budget for the deal should be in the hundreds of millions of euros."

Aldrich nodded. Last year, g14 supported Lyon to go to court with him. Unfortunately, in the end, because there were no specific legal provisions to support the victory, he said no with a cold face. The rejection was the conclusion, and there was no follow-up development.

But if you express your willingness to discuss this issue with UEFA now, it will be a gesture of goodwill and provide g14 with new benefits than before, even though it is what g14 deserves.

This may allow g14 to compromise, make concessions, and agree to the conditions proposed by UEFA.

After all, under the current system, it is better to have more protection of interests than nothing.

Aldridge was silent for a while. He was not willing to play this kind of big stick game with UEFA. It was too utilitarian and too explicit. Football has changed from a commodity to a political tool.

Beckenbauer suddenly asked: "What are your plans? I am here this time just to hear about your plans."

Aldridge saw Beckenbauer's hot eyes, obviously with a hint of excitement.

It seems that Emperor Bei is not willing to be lonely, and wants to take a trip into this muddy water, anyway, he is really trapped in shallow water now, maybe there will be a turnaround if he makes a fuss?

There was a playful smile on the corner of Aldridge's mouth, and he clinked glasses with Beihuang again, and leaned in front of him and said softly: "You help me get the German club, Bayern Munich, Dortmund, Leverkusen, these three g14 members are absolutely Support, I will send you back to Europe as UEFA president!"

Beckenbauer suddenly opened his eyes wide, and the hotness instantly became sharp.

On this day, Aldridge and Beckenbauer talked secretly for three hours. At the end, the two stood up and formally shook hands! (To be continued..)
