147 bleak start on
"Do you doubt it?" John Williams smiled and put down the newspaper in his hand and asked Jack Walker next to him. Jack Walker lay on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Although Jack Walker is still the president of the club, he has rarely interfered in the affairs of the club. In recent years, as his health has become worse and worse, Jack Walker's energy has gradually become deficient. So many things in the club were dealt with by John Williams.
Williams met George when he cleaned Blackburn's main force and then bought those young players. He didn't want to interfere with George, but after all, George's action was too big. Williams is a little uncertain and wants to hear George's opinion.
George finally convinced Williams that the Blackburn main players were strong. But after all, they are old now, and there is only a year or two left in the peak period. George should think about the continuation of the lineup, although Jack Walker is also an English tycoon. But it can't be compared with the later Abu and Manchester City boss Mansour.
So George wants to sell them when they are still valuable. It is not only necessary to make room for salary, but also to raise more transfer funds. George and Williams promised that the players he bought would definitely succeed in the Premier League.
In the end, Williams trusted George's vision.
Jack Walker simply read the newspaper and threw it aside. What does a reporter do? That is, something is born out of nothing, and small things become big things. This is their job. If George really cares about this little money, which of Burnley's geniuses can escape from the palm of George's hand.
"Look at Barak's final sale of eight million pounds, if George really intends to intervene. So how much income should you get? Jack Walker sneered at the reporter's opinion.
Then he slowly stood up and looked out of the window. Think about it, since it is said that the United States and Iran brokerage company have a deep relationship with George. So in George's eyes, how can the players of this agency be mediocre?
Williams nodded and was still happy. Although Jack Walker hired George, if he has some opinions about George, Williams will be very uncomfortable in the middle.
Now Blackburn can be said to be tied to George. While George cleaned up the players, he introduced a large number of players. At this time, it is too late to hire another coach. Because the players introduced are all written by George, only George can know how to use them.
"The Premier League is about to start. You are..."
"I won't go, and my body won't allow it." Jack Walker waved his hand. By the way, the club will have a lot of problems at first. Don't worry, give George some time.
............
The time is very fast, and it has arrived on August 14.
Black had arrived in London. In the first round of the Premier League, Blackburn faced West Ham United, nicknamed the Hammers. After the Premier League, there will be more and more opportunities to go to London.
It can be said that among the major cities in the world, the number of football clubs in London is definitely among the best. That is to say, there are five London teams in the Premier League alone: Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United and Charlton.
In League One and League Two, there are also clubs such as Queen's Park Rangers, Millwall, Bleddford, Fulham, Crystal Palace and Wimbledon. Of course, there are countless semi-professional and amateur teams that have not heard of their names.
Since Redknapp became the head coach of West Ham United, West Ham United have achieved good results in the past two years. And now the main players in West Ham United, Ferdinand and Lampard, are all emerging stars.
West Ham United fans have always been known for their fanaticism. Of course, like their sworn rival Millwall fans, they are also a famous football hooligan concentration in England. Although in recent years, as the English Football Association has cracked down on football hooligans more and more, these things have become less and less.
But the atmosphere of Upton Park is very famous in English football.
"Andy, what do you think of George's Premier League first game?" This time, the partners who explained the game were the famous partners of Sky TV, Martin Taylor and Andy Gray.
Speaking of which, this game is also one of the highlights of Sky TV's broadcast this time. West Ham United has achieved very good results in the past two years. More importantly, Blackburn's attention has suddenly increased this year. Blackburn, as the first champion in the Premier League to be piled up with money, has attracted media attention.
This time, there is another coach with the surname of George, and George made a lot of news after entering Blackburn. Therefore, the media is also more interested in Blackburn.
"I don't think so, but I still think West Ham United has a big win. Blackburn has changed too much this year. No matter how capable George is, I don't think it will be possible to form a strong team in a short time. After all, George is not God. Andy Gray said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, this commentary is quite embarrassing for me."
"Martin, is there any game that makes you embarrassed?"
"Look at Blackburn's starting lineup. Pires, Miku, Saniol and other players are not good. After all, they all came from Ligue 1 and there is some information. But look at Deko, how do you think we explain it? If George hadn't bought Deco, I wouldn't have known that there would be such a number one person in world football. Ha ha." Martin Taylor smiled and shook his head.
"Martin, I'm really looking forward to Deko's performance. I'm curious whether he will also become a player like Ballack.
............
"Blackburn's starting list has come out. The goalkeeper is Flors, the defender is Van Bronckhorst, Hepia, Hendry and Sanior from left to right. From left to right, the midfielder is Piree, Miku, Deko, Makelele, Duff, and the striker is single striker Klose."
"It's unexpected." Andy Glenn shook his head. Look, Van Bronckhorst is a midfielder, but George put him in the left-back position. And MacLei, from the data, has always been playing right-back, but from the list, it is to play the back position. I can't understand it. I can't understand it."
"George always does such unexpected things. If you follow the rules, it's not George.
In fact, it was not only their surprise, but also that Macleley and Van Bronchhorst, who were changed by George, were quite surprised. Fortunately, he is just a little-known player even in Ligue 1. When it came to the Premier League, he didn't have any confidence to speak, so he accepted the position of the back waist briskly under George's arrangement.
But Van Bronckhorst is different. He is very famous for playing in the back position in the Netherlands. Even with the Dutch team's World Cup in France, it is the Dutch international. He has always played well in the back position and performed quite well. But when it came to Blackburn, George actually asked him to play left-back. It made him feel that he had been cheated and thought about competing with George.
However, George comforted him in every way, and then asked Carl to tell Van Bronchhorst from the side that George was a very strong man. Even if he is a big player, George will not compromise.
In desperation, Van Bronckhorst switched to left-back.
Soon the players from both sides began to enter the field. Every time the commentator shouted the names of West Ham United's players, there was a huge cheer at Upton Park. The stadium with a capacity of 35,000 people is full.
The shouts of the stadium made George admire the enthusiasm of West Ham United fans.
As soon as George came out of the locker room, he met Harry Red Knapp.
"George, long time no see." Red Knapp was very happy to see George and stretched out his hand from afar.
"Hello, Coach Red Knapp. We haven't seen each other for nearly half a year. I'm also very happy to see Red Knapp George again. George doesn't have many friends in English football, and Red Knapp is one of the few friends.
"Although I don't see you, I can see your name in the newspaper every day."
"I told a joke. Your West Ham United has been developing very well in the past two years, and it's all thanks to you. Your team has several young players, which is eye-catching.
"Why George, do you want to dig up our West Ham United players?" This is what Redknap is very proud of, that is, the current West Ham United talented players. Including Ferdinand and Lampard, who have now played the main force, they are the proudest in Redknapp's coaching career.
"Of course, I'm not the only one staring at your West Ham United now. If you are willing to fight against Ferdinand and Lampard, can you tell me first?
"Hahaha. George, you think so well. They are the future of West Ham United and will not be sold.
George shook his head, and West Ham United is not entirely up to you. Ferdinand will soon be bought by Leeds United in a few years. If it hadn't been for buying too many players this year, George would have wanted to buy Ferdinand. Of course, as the best young defender in British football, the price is absolutely sky-high.
Neither of them talked about today's game. When the two first met two years ago, Redknap was just a new coach in the Premier League and was not well-known in British football. And George is the head coach of the League One club that has just been promoted to League One.
Two years later, Redk Knapp has proved his strength at West Ham United. And George also led Burnley to the League Cup and FA Cup. In the past two years, both of them have made their own name in British football.
