311 Join Tottenham Hotspur?
On January 10, the first game of the League Cup semi-final will be held in Ewood Park.
The League Cup, the most weightless cup champion in England. But when the first game of the League Cup semi-final was held in Ewood Park, the whole stadium was full of people.
Blackburn was a founding member of the Football League in 1888.
With a long history, it is definitely the best among English clubs. And at the beginning of the English League, Blackburn was also a strong team. At the beginning of the English League, he won two top league titles. There are also six English FA Cup titles.
This score is not very shabby.
However, these honors were obtained eighty or ninety years ago. For Blackburn now, it is of no use at all except to turn over the honor book. Those English clubs with many low-level leagues will have many glorious moments if they turn to history.
Of course, Blackburn didn't have any uncountable achievements. Only the 94-95 season's Premier League champion, the top league champion, won.
After George became the owner, he first helped Blackburn win the UEFA Cup, and then the European Super Cup. For Blackburn, these championships are all to fill the honor.
In domestic matches, Blackburn has not won the League Cup.
It has been half a century since the League Cup appeared in British football, but Blackburn has never won the League Cup. This time, we have reached the League Cup semi-finals, and all Blackburn fans hope that George can bring back the first League Cup championship for Blackburn.
Although the weight is low, it is a champion anyway.
And the first one is always exciting. The same is true of the League Cup. The first League Cup championship is still expected by many fans.
"The fans are very enthusiastic."
It seems that fans are more enthusiastic about the League Cup than George. George smiled and talked to Evan next to him.
"Is it the first time anyway?"
George nodded.
George also attaches great importance to this game. After the game, Blackburn had another Premier League on January 13. But George didn't care about that, and all the main lineups played in this game.
It seems that George is bound to win the League Cup. Look, George doesn't care about the next league game.
After Morterson got the starting list, he smiled and Alan. Hansen said.
"Blackburn has won the top league championship and the FA Cup, but he has never won the League Cup. It is also ible to pay attention to it like this.
The opponent of the League Cup semi-final is Birmingham from League One.
Birmingham is really not famous as a club. Even in British football, Birmingham is a dispensable role. Only after a few years in the 1960s, it immediately withered.
Birmingham's only honor to win is the League Cup championship in the 1960s.
However, it is still well-known in Birmingham, China. Because later, Hong Kong tycoon Yang Ka-shing joined Birmingham. Finally, he signed a five-year contract, and then Birmingham was relegated. So much so that I was laughed at by the fans.
As England's second largest city team after London, Birmingham is really sorry for the name of Birmingham.
Birmingham is a large industrial city in central England and Midland. According to 2002 statistics, the city has a population of 989,956, and a total population of about 2 million within 80 kilometers around Birmingham. It is the largest metropolitan area in the United Kingdom except London.
Of course, Birmingham is more unlucky than other teams because they have an extremely glorious rival Aston Villa.
The glory of Villa's history, if Manchester United is not in charge of Ferguson, then it is no less than Manchester United and Arsenal. Seven top league championships, seven FA Cup championships, five English League Cup championships, UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and Toyota Cup.
With such a powerful sworn enemy in the same city, Birmingham's depression can be imagined.
Now Birmingham is a League One team. My strength is limited. I have been wanting to surpass it in the past few years, but unfortunately I haven't been able to get what I wanted.
For such an opponent, George was not careless at all. Even if all the main players play, George is in the locker room to emphasize the important surname of the game over and over again. George doesn't want to waste his energy in the second game of the semi-finals.
George will completely solve the suspense in the first game of the semi-finals.
All Blackburn players saw George's determination. Since George joined Blackburn, he has always been able to pass the domestic cup, and he doesn't care about it. But in this season's League Cup, George's attitude is very clear.
Blackburn players also work hard.
When Blackburn paid attention to this game, Birmingham couldn't stop Blackburn's attack at all.
First, Panucci scored the first goal with Pires's free kick.
Less than five minutes later, Miku received a return pass from Piret from the side and scored a long shot.
Before the end of the first half, it was Pires's cross. Klose scored a goal, and this season has scored more than 20 goals. And Pires completed the assist hat-trick. At the end of the first half, Blackburn was already 1-0 ahead of Birmingham.
But Blackburn's goal was not over.
At the beginning of the second half, Klose received a long pass from Ferdinand, stopped the ball and passed the defender and scored the second goal of the game.
Then George replaced Hleb for Miku and Drogba for Klose.
Before the end of the game, Riese scored the fifth goal of the game with a long shot of 34 meters with a free kick created by Hleb. In the end, Blackburn defeated Birmingham 5-1 at home.
"The game is over. Blackburn led Birmingham 1-0. Blackburn has reached the League Cup final, and the second game of the semi-finals is useless.
This is the second time that George has led the team to the League Cup final. The last time was three years ago, George led Burnley to the League Cup final, defeated Chelsea in the League Cup final, and won his first League Cup championship.
"What will happen this time? Let's wait and see!"
Morterson looked at the score of 5-0 and had already sentenced Birmingham to death. However, with Birmingham's strength, how can it be possible to win back the disadvantage of five goals?
Fans at Ewood Park are already celebrating the team's entry into the finals in the stands.
George is very happy.
After the game, George was interviewed with a smile on the reporter. I'm in a good mood to enter the League Cup final again. I want to add a League Cup champion to Blackburn's honor book!"
George's words caused a big disturbance after the game.
Although he took the lead 5-1, George was in a good mood to enter the finals. This makes Birmingham Club very dissatisfied. You are so frivolous before playing the second game.
Of course, in addition to Birmingham, the other two clubs, Liverpool and Ipswich, are also angry.
You said you made it in the final, but it's not impossible. After all, you are strong, and you have already led by five goals in the first game. But you haven't played the final yet. It's yours to say that the League Cup champion is not to ignore other clubs.
It's really unbearable for uncles and aunts can't stand it.
Especially in Liverpool, it is the most unbearable. The Liverpool Echo criticized George fiercely, saying that George was arrogant. George is immune to this accusation. When every newspaper criticizes George, the first sentence must be George's arrogance and ignorance of modesty.
George only replied in the face of the criticism of the Liverpool Echo. Let's talk when you can reach the League Cup final!"
In the first game of the League Cup semi-final, Liverpool were 1 to 3 behind Ipswich in the away game.
Hearing George's words, Liverpool was furious.
But there is nothing we can do. Who makes Liverpool disappointing themselves? He was hit three times by Ipswich.
It may be that they will enter the League Cup final, which will greatly increase the morale of Blackburn players. Blackburn performed well against Charlton three days later. A three to one, the game is over.
Manchester United continues to be strong, defeating Bradford 3-0 away.
While Arsenal continues to be sluggish. They were tied 2-2 by Chelsea at home. In the last three rounds, Arsenal have two draws and one loss, and their status is not as good as the relegation team. George also sympathizes with Arsenal and Wenger.
Wenger is unlucky this season. Both group matches of the UEFA Champions League are the death group.
And the thickness problem of Arsenal bench has always existed. With such a high-intensity game now, Wenger has no choice. Unless Wenger continues to recruit good players and increase the thickness of the team's bench.
After the end of the game, Blackburn was six points ahead of Manchester United and 13 points ahead of Arsenal. Arsenal have completely bid farewell to the Premier League championship.
............ All the media highly praised Blackburn's recent strength.
Arsenal has also given up. It is impossible to win the league championship. After all, Blackburn is too stable. There is also an experienced Manchester United champion. What Wenger is more worried now is that if he can't get the Champions League qualification, it will be a big problem.
Liverpool's recent results are also good, not far from Arsenal.
George's idea is very simple. It is to consolidate the team's position in the league as much as possible before the Champions League restarts. If possible, of course, I hope to open the points with Manchester United. Because Manchester United's strength in the second half is famous.
Unless the points start to be opened now, it is likely to be dragged to death by Manchester United in the end.
Just as everyone was discussing Blackburn's state, The Sun threw a powerful bomb. It shocked all the English media at once. Not only the British media, but also the British football world was stunned by the news.
"Tottenham Hotspur?"
