Coaching legend

After breaking up with Aimik, George felt a little melancholy, but not too sad. It felt like the relationship between the two was a natural outcome. The breakup was foreseen, and both knew it.

And the start time of the Premier League is getting closer and closer. George doesn't have much time to think about these things. Among all the European leagues, except for Ligue 1, the Premier League is the fastest to start. On August 14th, the Premier League will start.

George's mind is now all on the upcoming Premier League.

The Premier League, this is the league that George has always longed for. When coaching Burnley, the most attractive goal for Burnley coaches and players was the Premier League. In order to have the opportunity to be promoted to the Premier League, they tried their best.

For George, the Premier League is also an extremely longed-for league. Only when you make a name for yourself in a top league like the Premier League will people truly recognize your strength.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is already August 11th.

Today Blackburn Club held the last press conference before the start of the league. This was not a press conference held by the club's top management, but George's first press conference as Blackburn's head coach.

George's identity today is completely different, and Blackburn's weight is far beyond Burnley's reach. Therefore, although it was just a small press conference, the number of reporters who came to this press conference was definitely the largest since George became a coach.

However, although there were many reporters, not many of them had a good impression of George. Their questions were very sharp.

"Coach Levy, what do you think of Blackburn's relegation situation this season?"

George squinted at the reporter. Now all the media are talking about how serious Blackburn's relegation situation is this season. In their view, Blackburn has been terminally ill in recent years, and George did not stabilize the morale of the team after taking over Blackburn, but carried out a major purge.

In the eyes of the media, George is just too ridiculous. George certainly knows that the Premier League is not the English League One, let alone the English League Two. There is more pressure and greater competitiveness here. But George thinks more, George thinks not only about one or two years, George wants to think about the team's continued development.

"Who said our club's goal this year is to avoid relegation?" George asked the reporter with a playful smile.

Although he thought George was a bad person, the reporter was stunned by the question. Blackburn was originally a relegation team. Although Blackburn won the Premier League three years ago, it is now a real relegation team.

The reporter was just a little stunned, after all, he was experienced. So he immediately asked George: "Does Coach Levy think Blackburn can still compete for the championship?"

"Why can't Blackburn become a champion?" George smiled slightly, although he knew that it would be very difficult for Blackburn to become a champion within one or two years. But George was unwilling to lose momentum. "I didn't take over Blackburn to avoid relegation. I don't care what Blackburn was like before. I took over Blackburn to make Blackburn an important force in the Premier League."

"Okay, next one."

Although Blackburn has declined in recent years, it will not rise again until Jack Walker. But in the early days of the English League, Blackburn was a real powerhouse. In the early days of the English League, it won the English Premier League twice and the English FA Cup six times.

The reporter wanted to ask more, but was interrupted by George and sat down angrily.

"Coach Levy, Klose scored few goals in the English League One, and Deco was a player in the Portuguese second league. I don't know why the two of them were able to join Blackburn, and their weekly salary exceeded 5,000 pounds. This is all very confusing to us." The reporter's question was very sharp. In fact, as early as when Blackburn announced the transfer list, someone had already raised this question.

Of course, it's not just Klose and Deco, but also Gudjohnsen and Gallas are in the scope of doubt.

"When I choose a player, I never look at his background. No matter which club he played in before, as long as he is a player who fits my team, I will buy him. A hero doesn't ask where he came from. When I found Ballack, he was also a player in the German amateur league."

As soon as George finished speaking, the reporter's face was full of smiles and he continued to ask George.

"We heard that Klose and Deco are both players under your cousin Allen Levy. Coach Levy doesn't know if it's true." Although George was asked with a smile, the question was definitely quite malicious.

George, who was just smiling, suddenly fell. A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. "They are indeed players of Allen's agency. Are you asking me if I made some unscrupulous money in the middle?"

"Even if I benefited from it, it was the club's money. The club doesn't care, what does it have to do with you!" George suddenly raised his voice and asked the reporter with a sneer. "Next."

George's answer completely confused many reporters below. Although George is famous in the English football world, George was only the head coach of the English League One club before. Therefore, the reporters who interviewed George were also some new reporters, but now these reporters are all reporters who have been interviewing the Premier League.

Although they have heard of George's reputation, many people have never interviewed George face to face. Today is the first time to really fight with George.

But I really didn't expect George to be so arrogant. He didn't care about the reporter's face at all. He said directly, "What's your business!" Even many world football coaches would not offend reporters like this. George is really a character coach.

The reporter who asked George the question was stunned on the spot. Although he is not a famous reporter, he has been immersed in the Premier League for many years. He has interviewed many coaches and players, including many coaches and players with strange personalities. But no one has ever embarrassed him in person. His face turned red and he didn't know what to do.

Steven Yellen looked at George sitting there and arguing with the crowd, and he didn't know why he felt happy in his heart. He was ridiculed by George in the past, which made him embarrassed. Of course, there is also some awkwardness. The two opponents back then have to stand on the same front now.

Blackburn Club has a pivotal position in Blackburn, not only because it is the only football club in Blackburn. It is also because countless related industries have been generated around the Blackburn Club. I don't know how many people in Blackburn live on the Blackburn Club.

Most of the reports of the Blackburn Evening News are also about the club. After all, even if such a local tabloid wants to report major news about the people's livelihood, it does not have the strength.

As a reporter for the Blackburn Evening News, Steven Yellen can only maintain the same position as the club. This is not subject to Yellen's will, he can only stand on the same front with the club. So I was a little nervous when I saw the press conference, so I stood up.

"Coach Levy, what are your prospects for the new season."

This is almost nonsense, and in such a press conference, this kind of question is almost the last question before the end.

George nodded to Yellen imperceptibly, knowing what Yellen meant. This reporter who was ridiculed the most by George in the past, now... But George still stood up with a stern face.

"Try your best to win the game that can be won." After just two steps, George turned around and smiled and said to the reporter who asked the first question in front. "Anyway, the goal of this season will definitely not be just to avoid relegation."

…………

Not to mention that George ridiculed those uncrowned kings in the press conference, which made them gnash their teeth.

George, who was not liked by those reporters, was bombarded by major English media the next day. If they were still hiding it before, then at this time, their evaluation of George was completely naked.

"Klose? A striker who has scored less than ten goals in fifty games in the English League One, what qualifications does he have to join a Premier League club? Why can he get a weekly salary of 5,000 pounds? Is it because George Levy likes him? When George coached Burnley, many people were very puzzled by George's use of Klose. Unexpectedly, George still brought Klose with him to Blackburn."

"Anderson Deco? A player who is not valued by Benfica and plays in the Portuguese second-tier league. He can get a weekly salary of 6,000 pounds after entering Blackburn, why?"

"Both Klose and Deco are players affiliated with the Meiyi Agency, and the current head of this company is Alan Levy. He is George's cousin, and George also has his own shares in this company."

"Such a situation has forced us to have more thoughts on the transfer of these two people."

This statement has become the mainstream view among major media, and they all think that there are many tricks in these two transfers.

In addition to doubting this transfer, the media is more evaluating Blackburn's prospects.

"To be honest, I am not optimistic about Blackburn's prospects this season. Blackburn sold their best player, Chris Sutton. Including many key players, but did not add players of the same strength."

"After Shearer's transfer, Blackburn did not find a real player to replace Shearer, which eventually led to the team's collapse in recent years."

"Last year, Blackburn was able to stay in the league thanks to Sutton's outstanding performance. Who can save Blackburn this year?"
