Chapter 95: Differences (Please bookmark)

On April 5, in the 39th round of the English League One, Burnley met Queen's Rangers Park. Although they had just gone through the carnival of the League Cup champion, Burnley players did not show any signs of fatigue. Robbie Keane, who came on as a substitute for ten minutes in the League Cup final, vented all his frustration in this game.

In less than 28 minutes in the first half, he had already performed a hat trick. The number of goals for Burnley has reached 19. It can be said that Robbie Keane, who is just 17 years old this year and is playing in the professional league for the first time, has shown talents that no one can imagine.

Although he was excluded from the starting lineup by George in some important cup games. But when it comes to Burnley's forward line, everyone must mention Robbie Keane first.

Robbie Keane has speed, technology, and even good ability to grab points. He is already one of the most famous strikers in the English League One. In the winter, there are even Premier League clubs that have offered Robbie Keane a price of 3 million pounds. At this point, it’s embarrassing to bid less than 5 million pounds.

When the team was ahead by a large margin soon after the first half started, George slowed down the pace. There were too many games this season, and the Burnley players were already quite tired. Now they are playing so well only because they are holding their breath.

Burnley is also very good at controlling the game. In the end, Ljungberg added icing on the cake in the second half, and the 39th round ended 4-0. In another venue, Nottingham Forest lost to Wolves, and the gap with Burnley widened to 15 points. Middlesbrough also took the opportunity to narrow the gap with Nottingham Forest.

There are only seven rounds left in the league, and Burnley’s lead is already as big as it can be. Fifteen points, this gap is already a score that cannot be reversed in any league. In the remaining games, Burnley only needs to ensure six points to win the League One championship.

Now Burnley is not only far ahead of Nottingham Forest in the score, but also has 27 more goals than Nottingham Forest.

"George, your contract is about to expire, right?" Sera Aimik snuggled in George's arms, stroking George's chest and asked.

"How do you know?"

"Tsk, have you forgotten what I do? In fact, your contract is expiring, and it's not an important secret. Now everyone in our industry knows that everyone is waiting for you to bring everyone an explosive news." Aimik pouted, dissatisfied with George's underestimation of himself.

George shrugged. "If they want to get an explosive news from me, I think they are wasting their efforts."

"You want to renew your contract with Burnley?" Aimik's voice suddenly rose, and then sat up.

George looked at Aimik with his upper body exposed, and his hands began to be dishonest. But this time Aimik knocked off George's dishonest hand and said seriously: "George, I'm talking to you seriously now. Have you renewed your contract?"

George put down his hand helplessly. In fact, George didn't like to talk about these things with Aimik. George understood what Aimik was thinking, but Aimik couldn't understand what George was thinking.

"Not yet. The chairman came to me a few days ago to discuss the contract renewal. But I refused."

"Really! That's great." Aimick was immediately excited when he heard George's words. "George, listen to me. Burnley is too small and has very limited development potential. You are doing very well now, but if you want Burnley to compete with Liverpool, Manchester United, Arsenal, etc., it is impossible for you to do it alone."

Aimick said this countless times when he was with George. George understood Aimick's thoughts. Aimick hoped that George could coach in a club with more potential and more attention.

"Sera..." George wanted to tell Sera that he just didn't sign for the time being. But he would definitely sign after the season. But Aimick covered George's mouth with his little hand.

"George, I have news. Dalglish will leave the coaching position of Newcastle United after this season. John Hall heard that he admires you very much and intends to invite you to be the head coach next season. This is a good opportunity." Although he was at home, Aimick still said in a very low voice.

George was not stunned by the news, because George had received an invitation from Newcastle from other channels. Dalglish's performance in Newcastle in the past two years was average, not good, nor bad.

However, Dalglish's conservative approach was not accepted by Newcastle fans. And ordinary results could not satisfy the ambitious John Hall, so there was news that Dalglish would leave St. James Park after this season.

George was also very surprised to receive an invitation from Newcastle, but George refused other invitations including Newcastle on the grounds that he could not be distracted during the season.

"Sera, an intermediary has already contacted me." George did not lie to Amyk.

"Really!" Amyk was very happy. "George, that's Newcastle. It has the potential to become the best club in England and even the world. This will definitely be a leap in your coaching career."

Looking at the excited Amyk, George didn't know how to tell her. Although George knew that Burnley was a small place with limited potential and was not very satisfied with Kilby's short-sightedness, he never thought about leaving Burnley.

When George said Burnley was his home, he was not being pretentious. George has been a Burnley man since he came to England.

"Saira, I don't want to lie to you. I have never thought about leaving Burnley. I rejected Mr. Kilby not because I want to leave Burnley. But because I still have some important issues and I want to have a good relationship with Mr. Kilby." Let’s talk.”

"You mean you want to renew your contract with Burnley?" Amick frowned. "George, it's time for you to become famous. You have to know that everyone has an opportunity problem. If you give up this opportunity, you may not have such a good opportunity in a few years."

"George, don't you want to be a world-class coach? Don't you want to earn more than tens of thousands of pounds a week? Does Kilby have money? How many fans do Burnley have? Are Burnley fans rich? Burnley can give you a good job Can Burnley help you buy the players you need? Even if there are good players willing to follow you, can Burnley afford their wages?" Amick asked one after another, but Amick couldn't think of anything. Understand how George can be so stubborn.

George is a coach, not an ordinary fan. There is nothing to miss about a club like Burnley with no development prospects.

Seeing that Amick was a little anxious, George wanted to calm him down. Unfortunately, Amick pushed George away and looked at George seriously.

"Saira..., you don't understand." George shook his head. "Burnley carries my dream, and the current Burnley was built by me. I am confident that Burnley will become a strong player in the Premier League."

Amyk closed his eyes and sighed slowly.

"George, I don't know if you are naive or... I know that the current Burnley players are very strong, and many colleagues say that your youth team may be able to copy Ferguson's 92 generation. But George, what do you think of Burnley? Can we really keep them?"

Seeing that George still didn't understand, Amick didn't know what to say to him. "Burnley is not a big club. After they get to the Premier League, it is impossible for them to keep these players. Your favorite Ballack, if a club offers eight million pounds or ten million pounds, how do you think Kilby would choose? ?”

George still shook his head.

"Saira, I know you mean well. But..." George likes Amick, but doesn't like Amick being too strong. Amick has his own plans for every aspect of George, but George doesn't like it.

"Saira! Saira..." Amick was very angry when he heard George's firm words. After getting dressed, he left after taking care of himself.

George looked at Amick's back and shook his head helplessly. The two people have very different ideas. George is considered a smaller country bumpkin, while Amick grew up in a very good family. George just wants to be a good coach, while Amick wants George to become a star in the coaching world.
