Coaching legend

"Galatasaray is a Turkish giant, and most of Turkey's good players are there. In addition to Hakan Sukur and Emre, their club has many young talents. If my club is not already a mature team, I would definitely like to dig more Galatasaray players."

"I never look down on Galatasaray. Because there are too many good players in their club. Especially Hassan Şaş, if it weren't for Robert and Damien, I would definitely bring him in."

"Hassan Şaş is definitely one of the best wingers I have ever seen. If I can, I really want to bring him in."

George praised Galatasaray in front of reporters.

And he praised Hassan Şaş even more. George likes Hassan Şaş, a player who entered the best team in the Korea-Japan World Cup, very much. And he is also a very strong winger in the Galatasaray lineup.

Such a good player, but because he is in Turkey, he has not been discovered. George now lets him appear in front of people early.

Galatasaray, which has been exhausted by the transfers of Hakan Sukur and Emre, is willing to add fuel to the fire.

In fact, George is not exaggerating at all. Because Galatasaray's strength at this time is definitely at its peak. Two years later, in the Korea-Japan World Cup, most of the players in the Turkish team that entered the semi-finals of the World Cup were Galatasaray players.

It can be said that Galatasaray is only low in reputation. In fact, its strength should not be underestimated.

Although George is not well-known in European football, he is definitely well-known in English football. Of course, George's greatest fame is his vision of players. Especially George's transfers, everyone in English football admires him.

Since George became a coach, he has introduced Ballack, Klose, and Gudjohnsen for free. There have also been wonderful transfers such as Deco and Cudicini with transfer fees of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Therefore, after George praised Galatasaray's players, many English football clubs were still somewhat tempted. Therefore, they couldn't help but pay a little attention to Galatasaray's players, and then they found that Galatasaray was really a treasure trove.

There are many young talents in their team.

And Hassan Sas, who was praised by George, was observed by many clubs.

This discovery made many clubs in the English football world crazy. Since the Bosman Act, the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, and Bundesliga have all become superior leagues. The Premier League poached players from the Eredivisie and Ligue 1, and now seeing that Turkey has so many good players, it is even more reluctant to give up.

Some players may not have entered the Turkish national team yet, but the English football world has just introduced the "Special Talent Clause", which is just right to introduce these talents.

If it is those annoying reporters who harassed Galatasaray these days. At most, they are like a group of flies, buzzing around the team. Then now the scouts of those clubs have appeared, and some clubs have contacted their players privately, which makes Trim completely distressed.

Galatasaray is also very angry and dissatisfied with these clubs violating regulations and contacting players privately. But as long as it is not blatant and not caught on the spot, Galatasaray has no way to deal with it.

Anyway, for many clubs, this season is over. They should consider preparing for the next season.

And players like Hassan Sass have contacted more than one or two clubs. This makes these players who are preparing for the UEFA Cup final part of their energy dispersed in other aspects. After all, these are their future, and they can't help but consider it.

Trim, who led the team to prepare for the game, has been very upset these days. In this state, how to welcome the UEFA Cup final.

In this matter, George, who fueled the flames, immediately watched the farce on the side. More time was spent preparing for the UEFA Cup final.

The current situation is that Galatasaray is exhausted in dealing with the persistent reporters and the endless scouts. As the culprit, Blackburn is quietly preparing for the game.

At present, the English media is very lively. Their eyes are already on the UEFA Cup final.

Of course, the current Premier League has not ended yet, and there is also the Champions League final not much different from the League Cup final. Unfortunately, these two games can no longer attract the attention of the English media.

There is only one round left in the Premier League, but unfortunately the last round is completely useless in the eyes of the media.

The top few teams in the Premier League are completely unlikely to change. Manchester United's Premier League championship is a foregone conclusion, and the teams that have won the Champions League have also been announced. Blackburn, the second place, and Arsenal, the third place, will represent the Premier League in the Champions League next season.

And Leeds United, the fourth place in the Premier League, has won a place in the League Cup next season.

There are also three relegation spots that have been announced. Watford, Sheffield Wednesday, and Burnley.

It can be said that the teams that should be relegated have been relegated, and the top few are no longer suspenseful. So there is no attention in the last round of games.

If it was this time last year, all the media's attention would be on the Champions League final. Because last summer, the Champions League final was between Manchester United and Bayern. But this season is different. This season's Champions League final is between Real Madrid and Valencia.

The status of the La Liga in European football has been rising recently. Real Madrid won the Champions League in the previous season. Just two seasons later, they entered the Champions League final again.

What's even more outrageous is that this Champions League final is a La Liga civil war.

This makes the proud English football world very proud, so they unconsciously reduce the coverage of the Champions League final. Instead, they focus on the UEFA Cup final.

The last round of the Premier League is May 14, and the UEFA Cup final is May 17.

There is only three days between the two games. George can't waste the players' physical strength for this useless game in the last round.

Therefore, George didn't pay much attention to the last game. He just sent a few substitutes to deal with it, but fortunately, Wimbledon didn't have much spirit. In the end, the two sides ended the last round with a score of 0-0.

On the other side, Manchester United defeated Villa 1-0 away in the last round.

So far, Manchester United has not lost a single game since returning from the Club World Cup. And finally ended the season with an amazing eleven consecutive wins.

Manchester United's strength made all teams admire. After the end of the league, Manchester United was almost ahead of Blackburn by double digits. And it was 22 points ahead of Arsenal. Such a leading advantage is the first time in the Premier League in recent years.

With the end of the Premier League, various data have also come out.

The most intuitive is the Premier League scorer list. Kevin Phillips, who created a peak in history, failed to enter the top few because of Burnley's relegation.

The player with the most goals this season is Alan Shearer of Newcastle. Alan Shearer has regained his brilliance under Robson, and this season's league goals have reached 26. He became the Premier League Golden Boot player this season.

And closely following is York of Manchester United, who scored more than 20 goals, reaching 23.

Ranked third is Klose from Blackburn. Klose's state broke out this season. At the end of the league, he scored 20 goals. Ranked third in the Premier League goal list.

It can be said that Klose has completely transformed himself this season. Klose is in George's fifth season. Except for the first season, he has been the main player in George's hands for the next four seasons. But his goal rate has always been criticized.

In the first three seasons, Klose played as a main player. But the total goals in the three seasons are less than 30. And two of the seasons were in the English League One. This goal rate makes many people do not understand George's reuse of Klose.

But this season Klose broke out completely and scored 20 goals in the Premier League. 20, Klose has completely transformed into a prolific shooter.

Following closely behind are Andy Cole of Manchester United and Michael Bridges of Leeds United, who both scored 19 goals.

Henry, who Wenger spent a lot of money to introduce this season, only scored 17 goals this season.

In addition to these, of course, there are some other data.

…………

But George has no time to pay attention to these things. George flew to Denmark the day after the last game of the league.

This season's UEFA Cup final was arranged in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Speaking of which, Copenhagen is a very famous city in Europe. Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark, the largest city in Northern Europe, and a famous ancient city. It is the center of Denmark's politics, economy, and culture. This is George's first time in Denmark.

Although Danish football has also had a Danish fairy tale, Denmark has always been a place that George has ignored.

Because George doesn't remember any great players in Denmark. Especially at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, Danish football has always been in a slump. So George took materials in Europe and never considered Denmark.

This is the first time I came to Denmark. I found that Copenhagen is a very beautiful city. It is different from the world metropolis like London that George saw in England. Copenhagen has a charm that makes people unable to stop. There is historical precipitation and cultural inheritance.

As soon as he arrived in Copenhagen, George had arranged for the team to train. The main purpose is to adapt to the venue.

The UEFA Cup final will be held at Copenhagen Park Stadium. Copenhagen Park Stadium is the home stadium of FC Copenhagen and the Danish national football team. It is not very big, just slightly larger than Blackburn's home stadium, Ewood Park. The capacity of the fans is less than 40,000.

Although the stadium is beautiful, George really doesn't understand why the League Cup final is held here.
