This is the new season's roster announced by George. In the new season, Blackburn has only twenty-four players. This is not because George wants to streamline his troops, but because Blackburn only has the Premier League and England's two major cup competitions this season. There are no other European competition assignments, so as long as they are used well, there will be no shortage of personnel.

With nearly 8 million pounds of transfer fee left in his hand, Jack Walker told George with a wave of his hand that this money could be used for winter transfers. If you don’t use it this season, you can accumulate it and continue to use it next season.

Therefore, George is not panic at all. If there is a problem of tight lineup, he can continue to make up for it during the winter transfer.

However, with the announcement of this list and the Blackburn transfer list, the media made another comment. Of course, the least important thing here is Mark Lawrenson, who had a problem with George.

"Am I seeing now not a list of Premier League clubs, but a list of players from English League One clubs? Blackburn spent more than 20 million pounds on summer transfers. Who did they buy?"

"Has Coach Levy seen France win the World Cup, so he thinks all French players are good? Miku? Sagnol? Gala? Makelele? Apart from Pires, who else is it? I heard Micu’s playing style is very similar to Zidane’s, does George really think Micu is Zidane?”

"Coach Levy is really amazing. What does he think of the Premier League? Anderson Deco is a player who plays in the Portuguese second league. Cudicini and Zauri are both in the Italian second league. player. Hargreaves is a Bayern Munich youth team player. Haha, who are these people?”

"Looking at the forward line again, Klose is George's favorite. But objectively speaking, is Klose a forward? In Burnley, the most powerful team in the English League, he played more than 50 times in a season and still failed to score a goal. To double figures. Gudjohnsen, a discard from PSV, came for free.”

"I don't know if George bought these players this season to prepare for playing in the League One next year, or..."

Mark Laurentian is very happy these days. Because I can laugh at George nakedly, but George doesn't talk back these days. Mark Lawrenson has never tried such a fun thing until now. What Mark Lawrenson is looking forward to most now is that the new Premier League season will start early, and then he will laugh at George, a rookie in the Premier League.

Of course, Mark Lawrenson is not the only one who is laughing at George so much now. Almost all the media in England are baffled by George's transfer. In their view, among George's transfers this year, Pires and Van Bronckhorst are the most practical. There are other players from second-tier leagues in other countries, as well as some abandoned players, who are very unpopular with the media.

Do you think that players who can't make it in other countries' leagues will be able to play in the Premier League? This is naked contempt for the Premier League.

The arrogant British do not accept these players, these players have not achieved much success elsewhere, and some of them are even thrown out. How can they succeed in the Premier League!

…………

On July 24th, Blackburn players began to gather together. Because there is a World Cup this year, many players from strong teams have just finished the World Cup and have to report to the club less than half a month later.

But Blackburn has no such problem. Although there are some international players, there are not many. Even international players like Hendry were eliminated early because of the limited strength of the Scottish national team. It has been nearly a month since the national team was disbanded.

Although the French team won the championship, Pires was only a substitute in the national team. He didn't show much of his face throughout the World Cup, and he didn't have any physical problems.

George even came to the club early. Although most of the players were designated by George, George is not very familiar with them. George needed to meet them and get to know each other.

"George, we still have too little time. The Premier League is also very close." Karl Pat sighed at George while looking through the training methods.

Of course George knew that time was very tight now. Other Premier League teams have no problem, just like Manchester United, their midfielders have been working together for who knows how many years. But Blackburn's midfielder is different. After George's overhaul, they need to re-adjust. This will take time, but there is not much time left for George.

"Whatever step you can take, do it."

While George was talking to Karl, Blackburn players came to the training ground one by one. Today was the first gathering, and George also brought some staff. These people were to translate for those players who didn't speak English.

Seeing all the players come out, George clapped his hands to quiet the players down.

"You should all know who I am, but I think I'll introduce myself first. My name is George Levy, and I'm your coach. You can call me boss or head. It doesn't matter."

"This is the first time we meet, and I'm also the new head coach of Blackburn. This includes the old people in the club and the players I bought this summer. But I don't have any direct knowledge of you now, and my knowledge of you is limited to the video. So I will observe in the next training and choose the main lineup from it."

"I only recognize your strength and status."

George has a main lineup in mind, but he can't tell them directly. This kind of high-sounding and formal words still need to be said.

"Gather today, let's meet and get to know each other. I will announce the team's disciplines in the future. Of course, let me say one thing first. I don't care where you come from. This is England. So you must learn English. Even if you don't learn it well, it doesn't matter. But at least you have to understand the tactics I arrange. This is the minimum requirement."

Speaking of it, there are really not many native English players in Blackburn now. Even if there are in George's plan, they are just some substitute players. The current Blackburn, the native English forces have shrunk a lot.

Although George knows the languages ​​of several countries, George wants to unify one language in the team. That is English. No matter where they come from, they must understand English.

Among the players George introduced, Miku has the most language problems. But Miku is the midfield core that George values ​​the most, so even if he forces George, he must force Miku to learn English. Even if he can't communicate, at least he must understand the tasks George assigns him.

Sure enough, as soon as George finished speaking, Miku frowned. But now Miku is ambitious, unlike when he later came to Bremen. At that time, Miku was almost 30 years old, and he didn't care whether to learn German or not.

But now Miku is only 25 years old, and he really wants to do something big. Especially the English media laughed at "Miku is not Zidane", which made Miku even more upset.

So although he didn't like George's request to learn English, he still decided to learn English in his heart.

George didn't say too much, and after a brief talk, he asked Hendry to come out and let everyone know him. Hendry finally agreed to stay after George's persuasion. This was the happiest thing for George.
