Coaching legend

Although this is a League B match, it is the highlight of the League B. Both teams were just relegated from the League A, and they are also the hot teams to be promoted this season. I never thought that they would meet in the first round, so it also attracted a lot of media attention.

George was in a good mood after winning the game, and he brought the best player of the game, Bobowski, to the press conference room. There were many reporters at the small press conference, nearly thirty people. Steve McMahon had arrived at the press conference early and sat there with a gloomy face. George didn't have time to pay attention to him and looked at the reporters below. It was found that among the reporters who came to this press conference, even the reporters from influential newspapers such as the Daily Mail and the Sun were there. Of course, there were also two people George was very familiar with, one was Morgan from the Burnley Post, and the other was Steven Yellen, an intern reporter from the Blackburn Evening News.

The host saw George and Boborski, so he said, "The press conference officially begins. Everyone can ask questions."

At the beginning, the reporters asked some simple questions about the game. At this time, a reporter asked George what he thought of Swindon's performance today.

George looked at Steve McMahon next to him, shrugged and smiled. "Before this game, someone once said that he wanted to let the rookie coach know what a professional league is." As soon as George spoke, the reporters were happy. Because this sentence was exactly what Steve McMahon said before the game. "It's a pity that I didn't expect this person to park a bus in front of the goal during the game. It's really admirable. This should be the legendary 10-0-0 formation. When I got my coaching certificate, I never learned how to set up this formation. Today I really learned it."

As George spoke, some reporters below began to laugh. Because George was nakedly mocking Swindon's stubborn defense at the beginning of the game.

Steve McMahon, who was already very angry after losing the game, heard George's mockery and stood up with a gloomy face without considering anything else and left his seat. George ignored him and continued to look at the reporters below with a smile. "If you have any more questions, I will leave if you don't ask me."

"Coach Levi, how do you evaluate your players?" Morgan saw that George was thinking of leaving, so he asked the simplest question in cooperation with George.

George nodded and smiled: "My players, I give them nine points for this game. If they can show all their abilities in training, they should have a score of five to zero or six to zero. But I am still satisfied with it overall."

Then George, who was in a good mood, praised almost every player by name. Although George was talking with saliva flying, the reporters below were all drowsy. George was talking and saw that Steven Yellen didn't say a word today, so he asked him with a smile. "Steven Yellen, reporter, didn't you write a sentence in the newspaper that 'Czech Republic also has football?' What do you feel after watching today's game?"

Czechoslovakia was also glorious in the 1960s and 1970s, but it has completely declined since the late 1980s. So when Burnley bought Czech international Boborski for 400,000 pounds, Steven Yellen wrote that sentence in the Blackburn Evening News. George did not refute it at that time, just to humiliate Steven Yellen today.

Steven answered stubbornly. "Coach Levy, this is just the first game, and it's a League B game. What can it prove?"

"Steven, when I bought Carrell, I spent 400,000 pounds. But do you know how much Boborski will be worth in a few years when Burnley plays in the Premier League? 4 million pounds, 8 million pounds or even 10 million pounds are all possible." George patted Boborski's shoulder and answered Steven confidently.

"Okay, today's press conference ends here." After that, George and Boborski left the press conference. Leaving behind the overwhelmed host and stunned reporters.

After George came out of the press conference, he was in a good mood. When Burnley Club spent more than one million pounds, many of the players they bought were people they had never heard of. Especially Ballack and Boborsky, who were laughed at by many people. Even Kilby asked about it, which made George angry. Today was a good time to vent.

"Karel, what's that expression on your face?" George looked at Boborsky and felt a little strange, so he asked him with a smile.

Boborsky rarely smiled. "Boss, you look so handsome today."

"Karel, you have read those newspapers. They are all doubting whether you have good players in the Czech Republic. Many people will look at you, and you have to use your performance to beat them hard. Understand." George encouraged Boborsky, because although Boborsky is very capable, he is a little shy. Such a talented player needs more support and trust to maximize his talent.

Boborsky nodded vigorously. "Boss, I know."

After sending all the players away, George went back to the office to sort out some remaining things. Then he slowly left the club, but when he walked outside the stadium, he found Mitchell waiting for George there.

"Boss, do you have time? We want to have a drink with you." Mitchell was accompanied by Grant and Miller. These three were not only the team's veterans, but also the club's meritorious players.

"Of course, no problem. I'm very happy. How about I book a place?" George was very willing to get along well with these three people. Burnley itself is a small place. This is even more so for the Burnley Club. These three have played football in the club for more than ten years. These three not only have a great influence in the club, but also have a huge appeal among Burnley fans.

George took them to the restaurant opened by Old York. When they entered, they found that it was full of people. When they saw George and Mitchell come in, they all raised their glasses and cheered. George saw that there was no seat, so he shrugged at Mitchell and the others. "Mitchell, let's have a drink first, and then talk."

Mitchell nodded and followed George to sit directly among the fans. This is when the big man next to him patted George on the shoulder and shouted. "George, you did a good job today. I'll buy you this drink."

"Burns, can't you be gentle?" George has been going in and out of York's restaurant since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the people here. "If you knock me out, who will lead Burnley to Ewood Park to run wild?"

"George, Blackburn is now the Premier League champion. Can you do it?" Burns asked with a grin.

George drank a glass of wine and looked at Mitchell next to him and said, "Mitchell, do you think we can beat Blackburn?"

"Of course there is no problem. Those bastards from Blackburn will either not come or we will definitely beat them up if they come." Mitchell immediately rolled up his sleeves and answered rudely when he heard that it was Blackburn.

George also slapped the table and shouted. "I really look forward to being in the League Cup or FA Cup this season with them. At that time, I will definitely let those bastards know how powerful we are, Burnley."

"Yes, George, you are absolutely right. Come on, drink."
