Chapter 192 Sprint

The game was won, and Blackburn ranked No.6 in the Premier League.

When interviewed by the media, George expressed his views for the first time. "Relegation, I never thought about it. Because my team does not have the problem of relegation."

"There are fifteen rounds left in the game. My goal is very clear, we are going to play in the UEFA Cup next year. The UEFA Cup is our goal."

George's expression made all the reporters overjoyed.This is a very good news material.George is challenging the current Leeds United, because the UEFA Cup places are aimed at the current fourth place in the Premier League.

The current Premier League No.4 is the youth army Leeds United.

Although George did not call the name, everyone knows that George's words are directed at Leeds United.

"We are eight points ahead of Blackburn. I don't think Blackburn can narrow the gap." David O'Reilly's answer was quite satisfactory.

David O'Reilly has a good temper, but Graham's temper is not very good.I didn't expect his assistant coach to have a relatively good temper.

But Leeds United is not all good tempered.Leeds United chairman Peter Ridsdale has a bad temper. He is now working hard to raise money to restore Leeds United to its glory.How could someone say that about his team.

"If you can achieve results by talking about it, then I am willing to say it in front of the media every day. I don't know if there is something wrong with Coach Levi's brain. When the results get better, he will start talking nonsense in front of the media. If he likes to be in front of the media so much Show your face, why not be an actor, why be a reporter."

"Coach Levy probably forgot that Blackburn is currently eight points behind us. He thought that the eight-point gap would disappear if he just talked about it."

Peter Ridsdale responded to George with a very disdainful tone.

In fact, George is unwilling to say so early that his goal is the UEFA Cup next season.Because this will put a lot of pressure on himself and his players, but George still said it.Mainly because George wants to put pressure on Leeds United.

Although leading is an advantage, it will also bring pressure.Especially when there is a fierce opponent like Blackburn behind him, George believes that the young Leeds United players must have a lot of pressure.George wants to put pressure on them, although he knows that this is a double-edged sword.

Leeds United players are young and generally cannot bear the pressure.But just because they're young, they also have the potential to reach a bigger potential.But George believes that the current Leeds United will definitely not be the latter, because many of the current Leeds United players have just been promoted to the first team this season.

They don't have any experience. Although Blackburn is young, many players have already had professional experience for a long time.Even the young Duff experienced a thrilling relegation battle with Blackburn last year.Therefore, when it comes to the ability to withstand pressure, Leeds United is definitely not comparable to Blackburn.

So George is willing to continue to tease Leeds United's nerves.

"Eight points, but because we were careless at the beginning of the season. If it weren't for this, our goal would not be as simple as entering the UEFA Cup. Fortunately, our results were not good at the beginning of the season, otherwise Leeds United would not be in our league." Blackburn's eyes."

"Leeds United is just our loser. Maybe he forgot the [-]-[-] not long ago. Eight points is a matter of three games, but in fact it is only a gap of two games. Anyway, we have to meet again, that is Three points for nothing."

When George faced Peter Ridsdale, he looked even more disdainful.Then he satirized Leeds United severely.

It can be said that the scolding war provoked by George has received second only to the current Premier League championship.Since the start of this season, Arsenal has continued the strength of last season and has always led the Premier League.Manchester United followed closely behind Arsenal.

Although Chelsea's performance is also good, and the gap with Arsenal and Manchester United is not big.However, most comments in English football now believe that Chelsea cannot win the championship. In their eyes, Manchester United and Arsenal are the most powerful contenders for the Premier League title.

The battle between Arsenal and Manchester United has made the media enjoy watching.Now there is the No.4 battle between George and Leeds United.

George's sarcasm made Leeds United even more furious.And this time not only the chairman of Leeds United played, but even the Leeds United players couldn't stand it.

"I think Coach Levy should keep his mouth shut. If Coach Levy thinks that cursing can surpass us, then everyone can curse in the media every day. I don't understand how a person like George Levy can become a coach."

Lee Bowyer accused George very angrily in the media.

Hearing Lee Bowyer's accusation, George responded boldly. "If Bowyer could put his energy on the court from the outside, he wouldn't be at his current strength."

George was very happy when he saw Lee Bowyer's words.Leeds United players are young, very young at that.There are also many people who are thorns. It is not so easy for O'Reilly to manage these young players.

O'Reilly has gone through a lot of ups and downs, especially when he was a player, he has experienced a lot.But as a coach, O'Reilly is a big girl sitting in a sedan chair, so there will be problems first in terms of experience.And because those players are young, they may become a powder keg at a glance.

Bowyer couldn't bear it anymore, and started arguing in the media.

George really hopes that all Leeds United players will stand up and fight with George.But on the other hand, George controlled his players and prevented them from being interviewed by the media.

In the midst of such noise and noise, the fifth round of League No.20 began.

Blackburn is another home game, facing Newcastle at home.Newcastle made a good impression on George, and George's first Premier League victory came at St. James' Park.Gullit is really not suitable for Newcastle.

Not only was the transformation of Newcastle's delicate technical style of play unsuccessful, but it also had a bad relationship with the internal players.Especially the relationship with Newcastle boss Shearer is very problematic.Gullit has no idea who is in charge of Newcastle.

Apart from John Hall, the former chairman of Newcastle, Shearer's position in Newcastle is unshakable.The relationship between Gullit and Shearer is not good, this is asking for a dead end.Even though you are the Dutch Three Musketeers, you don't even have half of Shearer's influence in Newcastle.

Gullit's biggest problem is that he wants to turn Newcastle into a technical team like Chelsea.But he forgot that because Chelsea have players like Zola, Di Matteo, Vialli, and Poyet, they are able to play a short pass and a technical style of play.However, Newcastle's offense has always been open and close, and it does not adapt to Gullit's changes.

Shearer finally played in this game, and this was the first time George met Shearer in a game.However, Newcastle is currently No. 14 in the Premier League, only four points more than Southampton, which is in the relegation zone.That's because Newcastle's defense is too bad, and the offense can't attack.

During the game, Newcastle's defense was wide open, and Blackburn crackled and poured three goals.Although Newcastle also scored a goal for Blackburn, they still lost to Blackburn [-]-[-] away.

At the same time, I don't know if it was influenced by George. No.20 Leeds United was tied at home by Charlton Athletic in the fifth round.The final score was one to one, which made George overjoyed.

In this way, Leeds United's points reached 45 points, while Blackburn's points were 39 points.The gap between the two teams is only six points.

…………

Blackburn is still strong, but Leeds United suddenly started to exert strength after a draw and a loss in the last two games.

In the remaining three games in February, Blackburn and Leeds United won all of them, and the score did not open. After 28 rounds, Leeds United's points are 54 points, Blackburn's points are 48 points, Leeds United is still six points ahead of Blackburn.

The outstanding performances of the Blackburn and Leeds United teams in recent rounds have attracted the attention of all the English football media.

The two strongest teams in February are Blackburn and Leeds United.After this period of soaring results, Blackburn has become No.5 in the Premier League.West Ham fell to No.6 in the Premier League by five points.

As the two teams with the best results in February, they suddenly fell into a downturn after entering March.

In the No.20 Nine Discussions of the Premier League game, Blackburn was in a sluggish home state and won a draw.Immediately after the No.30 round, Blackburn was defeated by Sheffield Wednesday in the away game.In the No.30 round, Blackburn finally won a victory, beating Coventry [-]-[-] away.After the start of March, the first three games turned out to be only one win, one draw and one loss.This made all the media concerned about Blackburn shake their heads.

But George beat his feet and his chest even more, because it wasn't just Blackburn who were in bad shape during this period.Leeds United's state is worse than Blackburn, only achieved two draws and one loss.

George knew that the main reason for this period of time was that the game was too dense.George is not yet proficient in rotation, and Blackburn's substitute has not received much game experience this year.During the intensive schedule, it was greatly affected.

In the 31st round, Blackburn is still four points behind Leeds United.There are still seven rounds left in the game, and Blackburn still has two strong teams, Manchester United and Arsenal, to deal with.Of course, it also includes a direct dialogue with Leeds United.

However, Blackburn's schedule is difficult, and Leeds United's schedule is not necessarily good.Not only did they have a direct dialogue with Blackburn, but they also played games with strong teams such as Liverpool and Arsenal.

Now all of George's energy is on No. 30 in the Premier League.Because George is about to lead Blackburn to an away game against their direct rival Leeds United.
