Coaching legend

All the players in the locker room were smiling because of the score of 2-0. Now more than half of the players in Burnley's lineup are participating in the English First Division League for the first time. They are very excited to be ahead by two goals in the first away game.

After the first half, the players began to talk and laugh. And Yongberg, who scored a goal, looked up at Norwich with disdain, and then entered the locker room. Seeing Yongberg, George raised his eyebrows and looked gloomy.

The players who were talking and laughing were a little puzzled when they saw George's face. Now the situation is very good, leading Norwich by two goals, why does George still have such an expression.

"First of all, I want to praise everyone's performance. You performed very well in the first half. I am very satisfied." Although he was angry, George still praised the players' performance first. "As long as we keep up the current momentum, we will be a Premier League team next season, and you will be Premier League players."

George's words made the players who were just confused breathe a sigh of relief.

"Frederick, do you remember what I told you?" But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, George's stern voice rang out in the locker room.

Yongberg was stunned and looked at George in confusion.

Seeing Yongberg's expression, George didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Yongberg's expression clearly told George that he didn't know where he was wrong. That is to say, during the warm-up match, Yongberg didn't listen to a word he said.

"Frederick, how many people do you say football is played by?" George suddenly stretched his brows and asked very calmly. But Carl Pat and Daniel Morrison in the locker room shrank their necks, because George's calmness was a precursor to the outbreak.

"Eleven people." Yongberg also understood that George was dissatisfied with himself, but still answered indifferently.

George laughed in anger. "You still know that football is a sport for eleven people, and you know how many opportunities you wasted today. Have you never learned what passing is since you were a child, or do you not know what passing is at all!" If it is said that Yongberg has a strong desire to shoot in the penalty area, it can still be said that Yongberg has a strong desire to shoot. Some forwards and wingers just need a strong desire to shoot and self-confidence.

But now Yongberg is not only very independent in the penalty area, but also rarely cooperates with others on the wing. Except for breakthroughs, this is what George is most dissatisfied with.

When George got angry, all the players stayed quietly and no one dared to speak.

"Frederick, I will tell you for the last time. Football is a sport for eleven people. You must understand what cooperation and teamwork are. Even Pele and Maradona did not defeat a team alone. They also need the help of other players." George gave Yongberg the last chance.

Yongberg did not speak, and did not react to George's words at all.

George ignored him and began to explain the tactics for the second half.

…………

In the second half, Norwich wanted to attack. Unfortunately, they encountered the outstanding performance of Ballack and Neil Lennon in the defensive midfielder position, and Lampard's big sweep in the frontcourt, and Norwich completely lost the advantage in the midfield.

Ballack used his precise long pass to mobilize Burnley's attack.

In the 56th minute of the second half, Yongberg got the ball. After getting rid of the defender with excellent skills, he started running along the right. Norwich's left back was blown up by Yongberg, so this time he was very careful to defend Yongberg.

At this time, Norwich's back midfielder also came to defend, and Lampard also came to meet Yongberg.

Yongberg saw Lampard, but did not pass the ball, but started to go outside. Yongberg was very dissatisfied with George in his heart, let you see how I pass.

Lampard saw that Yongberg did not pass the ball, and waved his hands angrily. But in terms of professionalism, Lampard is indeed the top, and he quickly entered the penalty area and prepared to meet Yongberg's cross.

Unfortunately, Yongberg lost the ball under the double defense of the two. After losing the ball, Yongberg was angry and pushed directly to Norwich's back midfielder.

"Danny, change clothes." George kicked the mineral water bottle under his feet fiercely. "Karl, Frederick doesn't seem to take my words to heart at all."

In the 57th minute of the second half, George replaced Ljungberg with Danny Murphy. Ljungberg saw that he was being replaced and walked to the sidelines with a blank expression. George didn't care about Ljungberg's mood, and Ljungberg ignored George. When passing by George, Ljungberg took off his shirt and fell to the ground. Then he went straight into the locker room.

"Asshole, does he think I dare not do anything to him because I spent 800,000 pounds?" George saw Ljungberg went back to the locker room directly, and he was even more furious. "Karl, tell Frederick after the game. From the day after tomorrow, he doesn't need to report to the first team. Let him go directly to the youth team to find Wilkinson."

"George, what are you doing..." Karl Pat looked at George in surprise. Because Karl Pat knew that George valued Ljungberg very much, and Ljungberg was a very important part of George's current lineup.

In the midfield, Ballack, Neil Lennon, Lampard and Danny Murphy are not assault-type midfielders, but all-around midfielders who can attack and defend. Richard Brodie and Kevin Phillips in the forward line are also forwards who need midfield support, so Ljungberg's breakthrough ability is very important in George's team.

"I want him to calm down and know what football is and what a team is."

After Danny Murphy came on the field, Burnley's attacking ability was obviously weakened. George quickly replaced Kevin Phillips with Ashley Chapman. Ashley Chapman was promoted by George from the youth team, and his skills are good among English players. But he is too thin and afraid of impact, so he can only be a substitute.

George's requirements for Ashley Chapman are very simple, use excellent skills to control the ball, and then try to create set pieces in the frontcourt. In addition to fast attack, Burnley is also good at set pieces.

At the end of the game, Richard Brodie received a free kick and headed in Burnley's third goal of the game. In the end, Burnley defeated Norwich 3-0 away in the first round of the English League One and won the first victory of the English League One.

…………

The score of 3-0 made Burnley very happy. Especially the dominance shown by Burnley in the game made many other League One teams feel threatened.

However, Ljungberg, who scored a goal in the first game, may be the most unhappy, because he received a notice from Carl Part just after returning to the club. Before realizing his mistake, Ljungberg was sent to the youth team by George.
