Coaching legend

"Benfica, you will regret this!!!"

Deco looked at the ball passed by Miku and volleyed it fiercely.

Deco had grievances when he came to Europe, and it can be said that he had great grievances. He was deceived to Portugal that year, and Benfica directly threw him into the satellite club, and almost ignored him.

The agent cheated him, and he had no money to return to Brazil. He could only stay in Portugal, and then someone who admired him appeared. That was George Levy, who was the head coach of Burnley at the time. George sent someone to contact him. Without hiding anything, he told Deco that Burnley was a team in the English League One.

Although it was an English League One team, George's eager attitude to seek talents touched the aggrieved Deco. So he was willing to come to England, and in order to come to England, he applied for Portuguese citizenship.

Sure enough, after coming to England, George valued Deco very much. But Deco's performance was not very good, and because he was a player under Allen, he was questioned by the media. Deco was unwilling, he was unwilling to fail in England.

When shooting, Deco only wanted to let Benfica see how wrong they were to give up on him.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The commentator shouted excitedly. "Blackburn, Blackburn equalized the score tenaciously. Blackburn showed absolute strength today. If Blackburn had shown such skills earlier, they would not have to be ridiculed by the media so much."

Seeing the goal, Deco was very happy. He turned around and waved to George, then patted his chest.

George saw Deco's action and did the same action.

George was happy not because of the equalizer, nor because Deco began to integrate into the team and performed well. But because the Blackburn team began to have a spirit, a spirit of not admitting defeat. As long as there is this spirit, even if this game is lost, Blackburn's future is bright.

There were still 20 minutes left in the game, and both Ferguson and George did not want to lose the game. So they began to deploy troops, but unfortunately neither side was able to change the score in the end.

"George, your team is good. Good." Ferguson was still red-faced and angry just now.

But now he has recovered a lot.

"Manchester United is very strong, we just took advantage of it." If it weren't for the influence of the international game, George believed that Manchester United in this game was definitely aggressive. After all, this is the home court, Manchester United can't let Blackburn go.

It's all the hateful international games that have reduced Manchester United's combat effectiveness a lot.

But George shouted in his heart, what a lovely international match day, giving Blackburn time to adjust.

…………

"You say, did I say we are no worse than Manchester United or Arsenal." George said loudly to the players on the bus.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

How many teams can draw with the powerful Manchester United at Old Trafford? Blackburn players, who lost all confidence after being beaten 0-8 by Arsenal, regained their lost confidence in this game.

"I said, as long as you have a strong heart, it is not difficult to beat Manchester United and Arsenal." George patted his chest again. "You have to have confidence in yourself. This is just the first step. Today we just tied Manchester United. Next time we meet Manchester United at home, we must beat them. Do you have confidence?"

"Yes! Confident!" All the players were very excited tonight. Echoing George's words.

Looking at the players with high morale, George was in a much better mood. As long as there is this kind of confidence and morale, Blackburn will not just fight for relegation.

But after sitting down, George still frowned. Now it is the end of the tenth round of the Premier League. Blackburn has six draws and four losses, with only six points. Six points is not a problem, the problem is that Blackburn has not won a single victory so far.

This is the most embarrassing thing for George. Without tasting the taste of victory, Blackburn can never become a strong team. Even if it is a draw with Manchester United, it is still a draw.

There are too many draws, and Blackburn is still the bottom team in the Premier League.

For Blackburn now, George believes that as long as the first victory is won, the victories will come rolling in.

Victory, Blackburn now needs victory. Only by using victory to motivate this group of players can they inspire the greatest energy.

Blackburn players are very strong, this is George's idea. What they need is to constantly improve their confidence. And victory is the most effective way to improve confidence.

In the next round, Blackburn will go to St. James Park to challenge the "Magpies" Newcastle United. Newcastle United has performed very well in recent years. Since successfully promoted to the Premier League in the 1992-1993 season, Newcastle's performance has been very good.

Kevin Keegan's contribution to Newcastle United is absolutely indelible. He led Newcastle United to quickly become a Premier League powerhouse. In the 1993-1994 season, the "promoted" Newcastle United won the third place. After that, the performance was getting better and better, and soon won the runner-up of the Premier League.

Later, Newcastle experienced Dalglish, and Dalglish's performance was also very good. The current coach is Gullit, who just took over Newcastle United this season.

George shook his head in his heart. The schedule was too bad. He just played well against Manchester United. He had to face another Premier League team away from home. But George had already made up his mind. The first victory would start with defeating Newcastle.

Fortunately, Newcastle, which has always performed well in recent years, has performed extremely poorly this year. After Gullit took over Newcastle, Newcastle's performance also plummeted like Blackburn. Although it is now ranked higher than Blackburn, it is only ranked 13th.

Compared with the situation a few years ago when it could compete with Manchester United and Arsenal for the championship, Newcastle's current performance is very unsatisfactory.

Of course, George was even happier that after Gullit took over Newcastle, Gullit and Newcastle's top star Shearer had a bad relationship. Of course, the media also had different opinions on how their relationship was. But George knew one thing, that Gullit and Shearer did not have a good relationship.

Because in Shearer's career, except for the season when he was injured, this season was his worst performance.

…………

Time passed quickly, and it was already October 24th.

George led the high-spirited Blackburn on an expedition to Newcastle.

"George, have you heard? Shearer is injured and can't play in this game." Evan sat next to George with a smile and said to George with a smile.

George closed his eyes and rested, and slowly opened his eyes after hearing Evan's words.

"If Shearer doesn't play, it would be the best. But who knows if it's a smoke bomb released by Newcastle." Shearer is currently the strongest player in Newcastle and one of the most powerful center forwards in the world.

If Shearer plays, George is very worried. It is really difficult for Hendry and Hyypia to defend Shearer. George hopes that Shearer is really injured, so it will be much easier to deal with Newcastle.

"Smoke bomb? No, Gullit and Shearer don't have a good relationship, and such a smoke bomb is not Gullit's style." Evan said confidently.

George didn't smile when he heard Evan's words.

Maybe I really don't have any fate with Shearer. This kind of thing happens every time I have the opportunity to meet Shearer.

The first time George led Burnley, he met Blackburn in the League Cup. At that time, Blackburn coach Ray Shaft did not put Shearer in the game list for the league. Therefore, George missed the opportunity to meet Shearer for the first time. Of course, if Shearer played in that game, there might be another result.

When he met Blackburn for the second time, Shearer had just transferred to Newcastle. George did not meet Shearer either.

This time in the Premier League, Shearer was injured again when he met Newcastle.

"If Shearer really doesn't play, it will be easy."

…………

"George, get out!"

"Go back to League One, the Premier League is not a place for you to play."

"Go back to League One to play!"

Listening to the abuse of the fans at St. James Park, George smiled puzzledly.

"Carl, I don't seem to have any grudges with Newcastle fans. Why are they booing me?"

George was only a coach at Burnley before, and he had never played against Newcastle United. He had never had any grudges with Newcastle. George has played ten league games in the Premier League.

George will be booed in every away game, especially at his home stadium. But in other teams' away games, the boos are not for George alone, but for the entire Blackburn team.

But today, when George went to St. James' Park, he was actually abused by Newcastle fans by name.

"I don't know, maybe you are too famous." Carl laughed.

As a visiting team, the fans booed not for the visiting players. But for George, the coach, which is also a big attraction.

"It is indeed possible. I think I have to say hello to these fans." George actually raised his head and waved to these fans.

Newcastle fans were confused by George's actions, but then even louder boos were directed at George. George shrugged. Since he took over Blackburn, George has been completely immune to these boos.

Compared with the boos from Blackburn's own fans at Ewood Park, the boos from Newcastle fans are nothing.

Carl watched George's actions from the side and laughed. Perhaps only George could make such a move amid the boos of others. But Carl was happy because he knew that George was finally beginning to recover his original arrogance.

George now looks like the old man. The previous George made Carl very worried. I was afraid that George would be devastated.

"Let's go. After this game, I believe they will hate me even more. I am willing to let them hate me, preferably for the rest of their lives."

George pouted. If he is not envied, he is a mediocre person. If he is not booed by the visiting fans, he is not a good coach. George hopes that all the hostile fans will boo him except the home team fans.
