Coaching legend
Chapter 157 Pressure
"You asked why we didn't choose Coach Levy? Look at Blackburn's current results and you'll know why we didn't choose Coach Levy."
This was already the third day after the game. On the second day, George went to the club and found that the team still followed the original routine and rested on the second day of the game. George didn't care at all and locked himself in the office to study how to get the team out of the current predicament.
He also met John Williams, who told George not to worry and that the club trusted him as always. Of course, Williams is also anxious now, but he didn't show it in front of George.
These days, George doesn't want to see reporters, but reporters don't want to let George go. The game has been over for two days, but there are still overwhelming criticisms of George in the newspapers.
When Sheffield was interviewed by reporters, he was also sarcastic about George, the young coach.
"He has good coaching ability, so we found him in the first place. But he has no experience in the top league, and we hope he can progress step by step. But Coach Levy wants all the rights of the team and does not want the club to interfere in the slightest."
"I expected that Coach Levy did not understand the cruelty of the top league, so we can't joke about the club's results. We can't use the club as a toy, so I declined him. As expected, you have seen it. After Coach Levy arrived at Blackburn, he just messed around. Coach Levy should bear the biggest responsibility for Blackburn's current results."
"Of course, the Blackburn club's top management should also take responsibility, because it is precisely because of their connivance that Coach Levy can do whatever he wants in Blackburn."
"Coach Levy thought that he was really a world-class coach because he won the League Cup and the FA Cup. He was too arrogant and too proud, which doomed him to failure. If Blackburn was wise, it should have changed coaches earlier, and maybe Blackburn could still get out of the quagmire."
This season, Sheffield officially replaced John Hall as the chairman of Newcastle United. Compared to elders like John Hall, Sheffield's mind is not very broad. He personally took action at the beginning, but was pushed back by a small coach.
In Sheffield's mind, George is an impolite, arrogant and rude villain. Therefore, seeing Blackburn's current results, he couldn't help but ridicule George.
George sneered at Sheffield's words. It can be seen that he is a narrow-minded chairman. No wonder Newcastle is getting worse and worse under Sheffield's leadership. A chairman of a big club like Newcastle is so petty and still remembers the little grudges in the past.
Compared to Sheffield, Liverpool Chairman David Morse is much more generous. He just said that the two sides have different ideas on team building, and did not point out the situation of the breakdown of the talks at that time. He did not add insult to injury to George's current situation.
For this point, George still admires David Morse. In fact, George did not give David Morse face during the negotiation. It even made David Morse very embarrassed, but it seems that David Morse is much more graceful than Sheffield.
However, George has no time to care about these external things. George is more concerned about the internal affairs of the team.
The defeat with Arsenal not only made George lose his composure. Even the emotions of the players have changed a lot. George can see from the players' eyes that they do not trust him. Especially those players who were excluded from the main force by George, they were sloppy during training.
George is now suppressing his anger. These players must think that George can no longer stay in Blackburn. Including some old Blackburn players who were suppressed by George, they also have a hostile look towards George.
Many players are very dissatisfied with George's choice of main players. Why can Klose be the main player, why can Deco be the main player, and how can Pires be the main player with such poor performance. When George was strong, no one dared to say anything. After all, George has always been an iron-fisted ruler, and George was personally dug by Jack Walker. Those players will not be so-so.
But now George's performance is getting worse and worse, and his position as a coach is not stable at all. Therefore, this contradiction broke out.
Not long after the training started, the gunpowder smell on the field became stronger and stronger.
As a result, less than ten minutes into the training, when Gallas was defending Klose, he directly shoveled Klose away with a flying tackle.
Klose is very low-key and has a good personality. Although many people criticize Klose for occupying the main position, no one is picky about Klose. Klose also has a very good temper, but this time Klose directly stepped forward and pushed Gallas.
Because Gallas's action was too big, even if it was put in a formal game, it would be a red card action. In a training match, such an action should not appear at all.
Gallas was not to be outdone and pushed Klose back. After Gallas arrived at Blackburn, he held his breath. At that time, George told him through his agent that he would definitely give him a lot of opportunities. But he has been in Blackburn for two months. Gallas has not played in a game, and even rarely enters the bench. This makes the proud Gallas unacceptable.
Only a few players went over to hold them back, while most players just stood by and watched coldly, as if it had nothing to do with them.
"Let all the players gather for me." George frowned deeply. There were still four days before the game. How could they play in this state?
Soon, Carl blew the whistle and asked all the players to gather.
George looked at this group of listless players, and suddenly he couldn't suppress his anger. So he sneered and looked at them with his head tilted.
"Why, the newspapers said recently that I'm about to be fired. Do you think you can ignore me and do whatever you want?" George's voice was very stable, not angry at all. It was even gentler than when he was giving a lecture.
But anyone who knew George knew that the more George was like this, the more it showed that George was very angry and very angry.
"Dismissed, I'm not afraid of being fired!" George's voice suddenly increased by more than twice. "I'm only 30 years old this year. Even if I'm fired, with my previous achievements, there will still be clubs that invite me. It may be a club in the lower reaches of the Premier League, or of course it may be a League One club. What am I afraid of? At most, I can return to the League One club as the head coach. Even if I stay in the League One for ten years, I will only be 40 years old by then. I still have a long coaching career."
"I'm not afraid to tell you that my weekly salary is higher than anyone else here. Even if the club wants to quarrel with me, they will pay me a sum of money. I have money if I want it, and I can still find a new job. I'm not afraid of being fired."
Evan, Carl and other members of the coaching staff were a little surprised to see George say it so bluntly. Of course, some blamed George for being too straightforward.
The players also looked at George with strange eyes.
"But you..." George sneered. "Calculate how old you are and how many years you can have in your career. I'm young and can find a job easily. Anyway, I was still coaching a League One club last season, and I'm not afraid to coach a League One club again. But you, you will be a bunch of losers like me. But you want to find a good job, haha."
"Many of you are still hoping to join the national team. I tell you, if you want to join the national team with your shitty performance, wait for your next life. Once the club is relegated, who will want you with your performance this season?"
"You don't want to train well, right? It seems that you think I, as a coach, can't train you anymore." George narrowed his eyes and looked at Gala, smiling slightly. "Don't you think so, William?"
Gala, who was fierce just now, felt very guilty when looking at the smiling George.
"William, since you think I can't coach you. Then you go to that field to receive training there, go there in the afternoon." George said expressionlessly, and then never looked at Gala again.
But Gallas' face turned pale, because George was referring to the training ground of Blackburn's youth team.
"Okay, I tell you. Even if I get fired in the future, who dares to... before I get fired? If I deduct wages, fine, or suspend you, don't blame me. Disband!"
George left the court without caring about the stunned players.
Carl also turned around and looked at George, and only reacted when Evan next to him poked him. "Disband."
No one can imagine the pressure George is under now, although George told the players that he was not afraid of being fired. But George is really worried about being fired now, not because George is afraid that he will not be able to make a comeback after being fired.
But just like George in Burnley, George has many ideas for the future of Blackburn. The team's lineup is currently unstable and the tactics have not been fully deployed. It is definitely not what George wants to leave in such a humiliated way.
But now George's pressure is getting bigger and bigger, and the players are emotionally unstable. And those annoying media are discussing when George will be fired every day. This put a lot of pressure on George.
This was the first time George faced such great pressure since he became a coach. George didn't even know how to deal with it. George now felt like he was going to be crushed.
This setback made George gradually understand that no famous coach is just a name for nothing. After Ferguson took over Manchester United, he was booed by fans in the past few years. Wenger also lost his job in Ligue 1 and went to Japan.
These experiences allowed them to maintain a stable mentality in the face of storms. No matter how hard it was, they could get through it.
It seemed that he was still too young and couldn't stand the pressure of this setback.
But this visible and invisible pressure still made George a little breathless.
