Coaching legend

"I would like to ask you to save Burnley for the sake of our past friendship."

Brandon Froude was very sincere. This made George stunned. George never thought that he would find him.

In fact, when he said this, Brandon Froude was also very embarrassed.

Who is George Levy?

He has won three Champions League titles, three Premier League titles, one UEFA Cup title, three European Super Cup titles, two Toyota Cup titles, two FA Cup titles, and two League Cup titles. How many honors are there.

Not to mention the English football world, even among the current coaches in the entire European football world, there are really few who have better results than George.

George is even known as one of the best head coaches in English history. Even those older generation coaches, Clough and Robson are not George's opponents in terms of performance.

When George did not renew his contract with Blackburn in the summer, what clubs invited George?

Real Madrid, Juventus, Bayern, Inter Milan.

George is a world-class coach.

Don't think that the European football media seems to have forgotten George. Now George has come out and said that he will continue to coach from next season. Then there will still be many clubs coming to him.

This is George Levy.

And what kind of club is Burnley?

After so many years, it is still a club that aims to avoid relegation. And even in the future, it will be just like this.

In the past half century, the best performance was the three years when George was at Burnley.

Burnley is the same as clubs such as Reading, Portsmouth and Bolton.

If clubs such as Reading, Portsmouth and Bolton now express their intention to invite George to coach their clubs. It must be the biggest joke of this century.

Even in the summer, Manchester City wanted to let George coach at the price of 12 million pounds, the world's first salary. Many people laughed at Manchester City for overestimating their own capabilities. But Manchester City at least has an advantage over other clubs.

That is, Manchester City is rich.

How much money. In fact, no one knows. The owner of Manchester City is a wealthy man from the Middle East, and not only that, their family is also rich. According to media reports, the family of this Middle Eastern tycoon is worth more than hundreds of billions of dollars.

He can even buy all the Premier League clubs with just a hair.

This shows that at least they have a future.

Chelsea's success is there.

But even so, it was laughed at by many media. Manchester City wanted to invite George, but they didn't even look in the mirror. At that time, everyone believed that George would definitely join Real Madrid, so they severely ridiculed Manchester City at that time.

Even Manchester City is like this. Other small and medium-sized clubs, even if they have such courage, do not have such financial resources.

George's salary at Blackburn for the past five years is 5 million pounds.

In the summer, many people offered George an annual salary of tens of millions. Even Juventus and Bayern Munich offered George a salary of 8 million. This is George's current market.

Who dares to offer such a high price among those small and medium-sized clubs? If George's coaching team is included, the price to be paid will not be a little bit.

Therefore, it is difficult for Brandon Froude to open his mouth.

The only possibility is that George is considering the past relationship.

After that, even Brandon felt a little lack of confidence. Burnley is really a small temple, and George is a great god.

After George heard it, he was a little amused.

Burnley?

In fact, when George rejected Real Madrid's invitation, he had already thought about slowly retiring. The body, the body is the most important. For the sake of the body, George is willing to quit the coaching industry. Although he is not a head coach, with George's brilliant achievements, there are still many jobs to do.

Because even if George retires, George is once a head coach who has dominated the world football.

George can go to the TV station to be a commentator, and he can write comments in newspapers. With George's fame, BBC and Sky TV are eager for George to come as a commentator and football commentator. And those newspapers, if George is willing to write something, will leave a page.

This is the confidence after having achievements.

So George is not afraid that he will really have no job after he stops being a head coach. It's just that George has just retired recently and is unwilling to show up. And it's not easy to rest, so let's talk about it after a year or two.

I have thought about retiring, and of course I will not think about which club to coach.

And even if George had the idea of ​​continuing to coach at that time, Burnley was not in George's consideration.

Not to mention the grievances between George and Burnley and Blackburn, even the stage of Burnley is impossible to satisfy George's appetite.

In the summer, if George really wants to choose, he must choose Real Madrid.

Real Madrid has everything? And this time Florentino is very sincere. If he chooses, George will definitely choose Real Madrid. Even Real Madrid has refused, other clubs are really not within George's consideration.

Burnley?

I have never thought about it.

Therefore, George is a little puzzled.

Looking straight at Brandon, I don't know why Brandon would find me. Does he really think that he will agree to him with the friendship in the past?

But after all, Burnley and I have a close relationship.

I can't hurt people's feelings. So George weighed his tone and tried not to embarrass Brandon: "Mr. Froude, you should know that I have some personal reasons so I rejected all the invitations. You should know this."

"It's not that I don't want to, but I really have personal reasons. Sorry, I'm really sorry."

George spoke more sincerely.

Brandon Froude didn't look frustrated when he heard George's refusal. Instead, he said in a more earnest tone: "Coach Levi, I know you turned down a lot of invitations in the summer. There are big clubs such as Real Madrid, Inter Milan, and Bayern. I believe you must have your own reasons."

It's very considerate of George.

But George didn't say anything, because Brandon would definitely say "but". Sure enough, Brandon continued to speak.

"But Coach Levy, you should know the current situation of our club. It's all my fault. I easily believed Roy Keane. After Coach Pardew left the club in the summer, I invited Keane. But now the relegation situation is precarious."

"I'm not the kind of person who will fire a coach if his performance is not good. But now Keane's performance is too bad, I can only let him go. But you should know that changing coaches in the middle of the season is really..."

Brandon Fludd almost spoke with a sad face.

"Coach Levy, if you don't find a way, Burnley will really be relegated. For a club like us, if we are relegated, it will not be so easy to get promoted again. There is no other way, so I ask Coach Levy for help."

Brandon said it too sincerely.

George didn't know what to say.

Burnley, this is a pain in George's heart.

If Burnley is relegated again, George absolutely does not want to see it. But now he has to save Burnley by himself?

George never thought of himself as a savior.

Burnley is in a bad situation now. Entering Burnley at this time, George was really afraid that his reputation would be ruined. George didn't know that he had unconsciously changed from not going to what would happen if he went.

But George himself didn't realize it.

George was about to speak, and Brandon continued. "Coach Levy, I know you suffered a lot of grievances when you left Burnley. But Burnley is really going to be relegated, you can't bear it."

George sighed for a long time.

Every word of Brandon touched George's heart.

Yes, can he really watch Burnley relegated again?

George suddenly found that it was really difficult for him to make a decision.

Seeing George's hesitation, Brandon smiled slightly.

Brandon is an experienced businessman. How could he come here without any preparation? Before coming to George, Brandon had done his homework. Especially those who have worked with George, he has learned about them.

You can't use force on George.

And Burnley didn't have the capital to use force against George.

George can only be treated with affection. Show as much pity as possible, and try to evoke George's memories of Burnley. This is the only way. People who know George told Brandon that George is an indecisive person.

George is a person who is soft but not hard.

So Brandon came to George and used this method directly.

Sure enough, George is now shaken. Brandon understands that as long as a person's psychological defense line is slightly loosened, then the next thing will be easy. As long as he works harder, George will definitely agree.

Brandon continued to persuade George.

"I know that Coach Levy can't stay in Burnley for a long time. I just hope you can help Burnley stay in the Premier League. We will prepare well next season and don't let this happen again."

Fire-fighting coach?

Half a season?

George shook his head. How good it would be if it was another club. George would just drive people away and there would be no such problem.

But facing Burnley, George really couldn't bear it.

George thought for a long time before slowly speaking. "Mr. Fludd, please give me some time. I need to think about it."

George really needs to think about it.

Brandon knew that this kind of thing should not be rushed. Nor should George be forced. And he was very satisfied with today's conversation. But before leaving, he still talked to himself and sighed: "Time waits for no one. After a while, maybe God can't do anything."

Although he was talking to himself, George knew that this was what Brandon said to him.

George smiled and didn't say anything.

After sending him to the door, George shook his head and walked in again.

"George, you..."

Miranda was of course against George continuing to coach the team. Health is the first priority. Anyway, they don't expect this job to make a living. Now George doesn't worry about money even if he plays every day.

But George didn't answer her immediately, but sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought. Brandon Fludd has said this, what should he choose?

Go left? Or go right?
