"Who can tell me how that guy Benitez managed to revive the morale of these guys who had been beaten to the point of losing their morale?" George looked at the dejected players sitting in the locker room. He couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly. Obviously, George himself did not expect that the morale of the players would be so low because they were beaten 0-3 by AC Milan in the first half. "This is not going to be easy... If we don't let them go quickly, If you cheer up, why are you talking about a comeback in the second half? Just surrender in advance and go home to fish!"
It's no wonder that the players have such a performance. You know, under the leadership of George, Tottenham have never encountered such an extremely unfavorable situation in which their opponent led by three goals at halftime. Even when they met top giants like Juventus and Real Madrid in the knockout rounds before, they successfully eliminated all these opponents after a hard battle, and they have never faced such a situation. Therefore, when they confidently stepped onto the stage of the Champions League final, but were directly beaten 3-0 by AC Milan, the psychological impact of this situation on the players was naturally extremely huge!
George did not believe what he had seen from the media in his previous life. AC Milan players celebrated early during halftime, which angered everyone in Liverpool. The Red Army, which was originally unwary, rallied in the second half to catch up and score three goals in a row, and finally completed the victory. An almost miraculous comeback. You know, the ones who control the AC Milan locker room are players such as Maldini, Costacurta, Ambrosini and Nesta who have seen countless storms, not to mention that they were just defeated by Deportivo in the previous season. Runia made a repair, how could he make the same mistake at this time?
Therefore, George's top priority right now is not only to make timely adjustments to the team's tactical arrangements based on the weaknesses in AC Milan's lineup, but also to rekindle the fighting spirit of these players who seem to have been beaten down by AC Milan! Otherwise, even if God comes in person, he will not be able to help Tottenham win the big ear cup in front of them!
"Sorry, the team was beaten like this by AC Milan in the first half. It was mainly my problem." Because the halftime break was only fifteen minutes, George had no other choice at this time but to directly The matter revealed, “Because I made a major mistake in the pre-match arrangement, I ignored the huge threats of Kaka and Pirlo on the offensive end. At the same time, the team ended with a score of zero to three at the end of the first half. Falling behind. I admit my mistake to Dajia here, and I hope you don’t lose your confidence in me just because of this half of the game.”
To be honest, the two issues that George is most worried about now are that the players will lose the confidence to continue fighting because of the loss in the first half of the game, and the second is that they will no longer trust their own command in the unfavorable situation of being three goals behind - for a team For a head coach, it is undoubtedly the worst situation for the team to not listen to his instructions!
"Boss, how can I blame you? We were obviously too negligent and the old cunning guys from AC Milan seized the opportunity." Seeing that George did not severely reprimand their performance in the first half, but The first to bow his head and admit the mistakes he made in the pre-match arrangement, Ledley King, Ronaldo and others first looked at each other in shock, and then said quickly. They all admire and respect George from the bottom of their hearts for his ability and his contribution to the rise of Tottenham in the past two years. Naturally, there will be no disobedience to George's command." Apart from anything else, these current head coaches , who has the ability like you, the leader, to bring a team that has been hovering in the middle and lower reaches of the league for more than ten years to this height in just two seasons? "
"Yes, boss, please don't say such things. Without you, it would be impossible for us to achieve what we have achieved at this age, let alone reach the Champions League final." Ronaldo also echoed, "If you want to blame it, it's better to blame me. If I hadn't rashly forced the defense of Maldini and Gattuso, then the team would not have been expanded by AC Milan."
"No! It's all my fault! If I could have committed a tactical foul on Kaká in time, Nemanja and the captain would not be in a dilemma!"
"No, it's my fault, don't argue with me! I was only looking at Kaká and didn't notice Shevchenko's movements. As a central defender, I was really derelict in my duty!"
It has to be said that George's decision to admit his mistake first was quite wise. If he sprays these players with blood as soon as he comes up, then these players are likely to be disgusted with George out of the rebellious psychology of young people. And now, after George apologized, the players' attention has naturally focused on reflecting on themselves!
"Okay, okay, it's pointless to discuss whose fault it is now." Seeing that the players had gradually gotten rid of their low mood, George began to change the topic to the right track, "At this time, let me talk about our performance in the second half. Our tactical policy is good - there are still forty-five minutes before the end of the game, which is enough time for us to get back from being three goals behind! "
"By the way, if any of you are still holding on to the idea that participating in the Champions League final this time is just to gain experience and come back next time, then I might as well tell you now that it's best to give up such an idea!" George knows that if he wants the players to Thoroughly cheer up and establish the determination to win this game, then they must give them a few more strong medicines, "Look at Ronaldo! In terms of strength, he is definitely the top striker in today's football. Barcelona, Inter Milan and Real Madrid are also the first-tier top clubs. But what is the result? A full ten years have passed since he became famous in Eindhoven, and Ronaldo has not even touched the threshold of the Champions League finals. Even once! Therefore, seizing every opportunity that comes before us is the most important thing we should do now! "
"Xavi (Alonso)! Use your brain more when passing the ball. Since the opponent can see through your long passing route, then focus on short and medium distance passes that are not easy to be intercepted to break through and impact the opponent's defense. Leave it to Alger and Chris to finish it!"
"Alger! Chris! Don't tell me that you two can't deal with two old men who are almost twice your age! If it doesn't work once! Then try twice more! Three times! Until they collapse on the ground from exhaustion! "
"Didier! As our starting center today! You must put enough pressure on AC Milan's defense!" Finally, George turned his attention to Drogba, "Nesta's body has been almost destroyed by frequent injuries. Stam's speed and strength have also declined significantly due to age. With your current ability, you can completely eat any of them like Vieri in his prime! "
Alonso, Robben, Cristiano Ronaldo and Drogba nodded after hearing this. Encouraged by George, they were so passionate that they couldn't wait to rush to the court and have a bloody battle with Maldini and the others!
After all, these players are just young people in their twenties, the age when they are most energetic and energetic. Under George's encouragement, they can easily be encouraged and become full of momentum again!
"Don't all these experts and commentators say that we have no chance of this game?" George pointed to the only TV in the locker room. At this time, what was playing on the screen happened to be Andy Gray and Martin Taylor about " "Tottenham is out of business" remarks, "There is no reason why we can't do what Deportivo can do! Now! Let's go out and tell everyone! It's time for extra drama...it's time!"
