Coaching legend

Chapter 10: Strengthening the army

July 20th is the day for Burnley's pre-season training camp, and all Burnley players must gather on this day. Although there is still some time before the start of the season, this is George's request. The team lineup has changed too much this season, and the tacit understanding is not enough. George must let all the players know his coaching ideas during the training camp.

"Mitchell, what does George want? Why did he put so many people in the transfer market? You didn't stop it." When Grant just arrived at the training base, he saw a familiar figure at the door of the training base.

Mitchell smiled bitterly at his old partner. "Grant, do you know what will happen if I object? Don't you know George's character? George will definitely put me in the transfer market."

"Yes, George's character is a bit strong." Grant has also worked with George for five years and knows George's tough character very well. Grant, like Mitchell, has been playing in the club for ten years. He is an old man in Burnley and the main right back of the Burnley team. Together with goalkeeper Miller, the three are veterans in the back of Burnley. It is also the rear guarded by several of them, and they performed very well in the First Division.

George is most satisfied with this back line of the Burnley team. It is a pity that after the relegation, the other two defenders had decided to transfer before the end of the league. George did not keep them, so only Mitchell King, Miller and Grant were left.

"Don't think too much, old man. We are in the same boat now. Let's support George first. You know that George's ability is still good." Mitchell patted Grant on the shoulder and comforted Grant. After all, many people put in the transfer market by George have worked with Mitchell and Grant for many years, and it is normal to have some feelings.

"By the way, who has arrived." Grant asked Mitchell while approaching the training base.

"You can go in and see for yourself. Two young men from Germany have arrived at the club early. I heard that George dug them from Germany for free. They are all players for the business league." Mitchell shrugged, not quite understanding George's choice. He let go of so many players who played in the Second Division and even played in the First Division last season. Now he has dug two amateur league players from Germany.

"Mitchell, you go ahead. I'll go in first."

"Boss, congratulations." Daniel Morrison and Ashley Chapman had been following George in the youth team, so they knew that George liked to be on time. Therefore, Daniel was the first to come out of the locker room today, and he was very happy to see George.

George still had a stern face and nodded. "Daniel, Ashley, you are now in the first team, don't think I will give you special treatment."

"Of course we know that you are the most fair, strict, and wise coach. You never abuse your power for personal gain, and..." Daniel complimented George with a playful smile. George was also amused by Daniel's words, but now was not the time to joke, so he waved his hand to interrupt Daniel's words. "Okay, stop joking. Hurry up and line up."

George looked at the 24 people in front of him, and he felt proud. These 24 people were the first batch of disciples after he really became the head coach. However, nearly half of the 24 players were older than George.

These players knew that today was the first day of training and they had to meet the new head coach. So everyone came very early, about half an hour in advance.

"Good morning, gentlemen." George shrugged. Standing on both sides of George were Thompson and Carl Pat. George stepped forward and greeted these people. "I'm glad that everyone can consciously abide by the time, so let me introduce myself first. I am George Levy, 27 years old this year, and I have been the coach of Burnley Club for five years. From the new season, I will be your head coach. You can call me the head or the boss, of course, you can just call me by my name."

"I know I'm young, but there's no way, I'm the head coach of the club. Anyone who tries to challenge my authority, I will let him know that being young does not mean being easy to bully. Of course, I don't want this kind of thing to happen. It's best for everyone to talk and solve the problem. Carl, distribute the player code we formulated." Although George said it with a smile, the gloomy tone made all the players whizz behind their backs.

But this is just the first step. When everyone saw the player code distributed by Carl, they were shocked. Because George detailed a series of disciplinary requirements, including disciplinary requirements for training grounds, locker rooms, and stadiums. There are even detailed lists of what kind of punishment will be imposed if you are late for a few minutes.

As long as the players restrain themselves, there will be no problem with these, but George's rules on diet are unacceptable to many people. George decided to learn from Wenger's changes to Arsenal and manage diet scientifically. And alcohol is absolutely prohibited. George stipulates that no player is allowed to drink alcohol on the day of the game and the day before.

When George was a fan in his previous life, he had heard that English players liked alcohol, but after he really started working at Burnley Club, he understood what good alcohol was. The game was about to start the next day, but they were drunk the night before. What's more, they played at night and drank at noon. George hated this, but unfortunately Jimmy Mulan didn't care about it before, and George, as an ordinary coach, had no say. But after becoming the head coach, the first thing to do is to ban drinking.

"Okay, you can go back and take a look at this thing slowly. But remember, don't violate any of them. I will never be lenient." George looked at the increasingly darkened faces of the England veterans and smiled. say. "Our club has eight new players this year, and there are several young players who have been promoted from the youth team. Come up to the front and introduce yourself."

After hearing George's words, Mitchell King consciously stood in front. Watching several people introduce themselves, Mitchell King also introduced them to other players on the team.

"Okay." George clapped his hands and asked the players to stand in their original positions. "The team has changed a lot in the new season. We now have 24 players. I want to tell you that I don't have a main lineup in my mind. You will definitely say that I am hypocritical. I do have my own ideas, but this is not fixed. It changes. I will see how everyone performs in the next month. Whoever performs well will be able to play. Whether it is a newcomer to the team or a veteran, it is the same for me. Me. Whoever is in good condition will be able to play. I will not give anyone any privileges.”

After everyone present digested his words, George showed his truest smile. "We are now a family, and I hope we can have a happy cooperation."
