Chapter 424 Who says the first time is beautiful (Part 2)

George was very happy because he scored three goals against Tottenham in the first half.

This is the 31st round. I wonder if Ferguson can catch up with him.

George was in a good mood. So after the second half of the game, George started to make substitutions soon. After all, there will be 32 Premier League games soon, and the Champions League knockout rounds will also start soon.

At this time, save as much energy as possible.

George first replaced Miku with Kaka and prepared to play a defensive counterattack. After a while, he replaced Klose with Drogba.

Although they are all substitutes, they are very strong. It did not weaken Blackburn's strength at all. Blackburn still pressed Tottenham. In the 17th minute of the second half, Kaka made a long-distance attack and fixed the score at 4-0.

The fans at White Hart Lane booed loudly. I don't know if it was for Blackburn or Tottenham themselves.

Anyway, since the second half, Tottenham fans have never stopped booing.

George also sympathized with Tottenham fans. As a big club in London, Tottenham is the worst. Arsenal, their century-old rival, has seen its performance soar since Wenger took over. It is one of the top three teams in the Premier League, and its performance in the Champions League is obvious to all.

In addition, Arsenal's pleasing style of play makes their fans enjoy it very much.

Even Chelsea, which is not doing well, is a strong team in the Premier League. Among the three coaches of Gullit, Vialli and Ranieri, they are all forces that cannot be ignored in the Premier League. And they have also won some honors in recent years, including heavyweight championships such as the European Cup Winners' Cup.

Only Tottenham, as a century-old club in England, is also one of the traditional strong teams in England. But the current results are almost terrible. In the past ten years, there has only been one League Cup championship, which is placed alone in the Hall of Fame.

Joe Lewis took over Tottenham, and Tottenham fans still had high hopes. Joe Lewis is not stingy, but it's a pity that Tottenham's performance has not improved.

Tottenham fans are suffering.

So they can only express their dissatisfaction with boos.

At the 71st minute of the game, George turned his head and looked at the bench, shouting, "Frank, go warm up."

Ribery looked up at George and stood up excitedly.

It has been almost a year since he came to Blackburn. During this time, Ribery went back and forth between the youth team and the first team, either playing in the youth team or the reserve team. He has never played in the first team.

He has been on the big list several times recently, but he has never had a chance to play.

Now hearing George's shout, Ribery's heart was pounding.

Finally, I'm going to play, finally, I'm going to play!

Ribery has imagined this scene many times, and now it is finally becoming a reality.

"Frank, play Damien's position after you go on the court. Remember, cooperate more with the players. Daniel is very strong, don't compete with him."

George pulled Ribery to tell him something, but it was obvious that Ribery was too excited now and didn't hear what George was saying at all. Ribery just kept trembling, this is the Premier League.

Before, Ribery only played in the French League C. He had never even played in the French League B, and even the French League A was just a dream for Ribery. But now he has made a triple jump and has come to the Premier League.

Ribery played in Duff's position after he came on the court. That is, the position of right winger.

Daniel looked at the scarred face in front of him without a trace of expression. After coming to Tottenham, Daniel became more and more indifferent. In addition to playing football, Daniel was not interested in anything else.

Daniel looked at Ribery and understood that this was a very young player.

Young player, Daniel sighed in his heart. Back then at Burnley, George had a group of young talents under him. But now...

"Frank Ribery, 19 years old. He is a player from the French third division. When he just transferred, many people were still very curious about him. Although he is a player from the French third division, who can be sure that he is not the next Ballack or the next Deco."

"But after transferring to Blackburn, George threw Ribery into the youth team. However, Ribery is very famous in the youth team and his breakthroughs on the wing are very sharp. Therefore, he was recalled to the first team by George."

"This is Ribery's first appearance for Blackburn's first team and his first appearance in the top league. I am also very curious about how strong this lucky guy who was favored by George is."

Motson saw Ribery on the court and gave everyone a brief introduction of Ribery.

After all, Ribery is quite famous in the youth team, but that is for professionals in the English football world. For ordinary fans, Ribery is still a very unfamiliar player.

Motson himself is also very curious about Ribery. I don't know what strength this young player has that George actually favors him.

Ribery was very excited when he played for the first time.

He wanted to show George his strength. Ribery's experience in the youth team made him full of confidence. Looking at the tall left-back in front of him, Ribery didn't take it seriously. You have been beaten four times by us, what strength do you have?

Blackburn also took care of Ribery, the newcomer.

Not long after he came on the court, Ribery received a pass from midfielder Alonso. After getting the ball, Ribery began to speed up, preparing to pass the big fool in front of him.

George saw Ribery's situation and thought he wanted to use his speed to pass Daniel. So he could only shake his head. That was Daniel. Not to mention Ribery's speed, even Henry and Owen might not be able to use their speed to pass him.

Sure enough, when Ribery just accelerated and wanted to pass him, Daniel went up and made a tackle. Ribery fell, but the ball was kept by Daniel.

"... Ribery... Oh, Daniel's tackle was very decisive. Ribery is still too young."

Really too young. Ribery felt that his body was already very good, but when he faced Daniel, he understood what a Premier League defender was. Daniel is 1.87 meters tall, and even as a central defender, he is not short.

Facing Ribery, who is only 1.7 meters tall and 64 kilograms, Daniel directly collided with his body.

Ribery wanted to play to his flexible and fast characteristics, but unfortunately Ribery lacked experience now. As long as he made a move, Daniel could understand Ribery's idea.

Speed, speed is not good.

Body, body is not good.

Experience, lack of experience.

Ribery's first time was destined to be tragic. Facing Daniel, Ribery had no way to deal with it no matter what he wanted to do.

George looked at Ribery, who was bleeding in front of Daniel, and shook his head.

Many superstars are so good in their first time. Including Rooney's one-goal fame, and Rooney's first game for Manchester United was a hat trick. Zidane turned the tide in his first game in the national team.

There is no shortage of players who became famous with one goal in the world football.

But it seems that Ribery is not such a player. Ribery's first time was so depressing, and he could only seek death when he met Daniel.

Ribery has never felt so powerless.

In the French Third Division, although Ribery is not the biggest star, he is not too bad. In particular, his assist ability is the first in the French Third Division. And when he came to Blackburn, especially in the Blackburn youth team, Ribery was completely invincible.

Therefore, Ribery felt that he should get playing time in the Premier League.

But today, when he played in the Premier League for the first time, Ribery was deeply frustrated. Looking at Daniel's handsome face, Ribery gritted his teeth. This is the strength of the England national team's main left back.

George was afraid that Ribery would really lose all his confidence.

So he asked Pires and Ribery to switch positions, and let Pires deal with Daniel. Ribery went to the left to avoid Daniel.

Among the Tottenham defenders, the two most outstanding people are Ledley King and Daniel Morrison. The strength of these two people is enough to play the main force even in any strong team in Europe.

Ribery was unlucky and actually ran into Daniel.

After arriving on the left, his performance was a little more normal. But for George, Ribery's performance on the left was also not good.

Mortensen, who was very curious about Ribery, was very disappointed. In his opinion, George was able to introduce Ribery from the French Third Division, and Ribery must have something outstanding. But from the twenty minutes he played, it was obvious that he was a rookie.

The speed looks good, and the technique is just so-so, but it's passable.

Nothing else can be seen. There were only three attempts to pass, all of which were intercepted by Daniel.

When Ribery came on the court, Mortensen thought he could see the birth of a superstar. Unfortunately, he didn't see anything.

However, Ribery's performance had no impact on the game. Blackburn beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 away from home, taking a solid step on the road to winning the championship again.

All the players were very happy, except for the unlucky Ribery.

Ribery was a little depressed. Because the Premier League was not as good as he imagined, he was bleeding on the first court, which made him understand that the Premier League was not so easy to mix. Ribery lowered his head and walked weakly.

The self-confidence he gained in the youth team disappeared completely. The inferiority complex since childhood occupied Ribery's brain again.

"Frank, why is there such an expression." George was looking at Ribery with a smile in front. "Frank, do you know? Daniel was an England international five years ago. You are just starting to play in the Premier League. It is not shameful to lose to him."

"As long as you keep working hard, you don't have to be afraid when you face him again in the future. At that time, play him well and wash away today's shame. That's it."

Ribery hesitated for a moment and asked hesitantly: "Can I really..."

"Of course. If you don't believe in yourself, you should believe in me. Otherwise, why would I bring you from France to England. Young man, have confidence. See Robert, you will never be worse than him in the future."

Hearing George's words, Ribery's face flushed.

"Do a good job, young man."

After speaking, George looked at Daniel who passed by. Daniel had a cold face, and you couldn't see his expression at all. George wanted to say hello to him, but stopped. Daniel, I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing to let you leave Burnley.
