Chapter 435 Patching
George picked up the list and looked at it.

For the youth team under his command, although George is not as familiar with the first team, most of the important players are still relatively familiar.

Now the players that Karl handed over to him are all very good players from the youth team.

"George, we won't be able to find players like Damien for a while. But I don't think our team has reached the point where we can't leave Damien. Although Damien is very important, as far as the team is concerned, I think Anderson last season was more important than him."

George nodded, agreeing with Blanco's words.

Duff is strong.But if George is asked to choose between Duff and Deco, George will definitely choose Deco.

Because a midfield conductor is far more important than a wing assaulter.

Seeing that George recognized his words, Blanco continued: "We still have Frank. Although Frank is still immature, his potential is unlimited. As long as he works hard, his ability will not be lower than Damien's in a year or two."

George knew what Blanc meant, even if Ribery couldn't perfectly replace Duff for a while, he would be able to replace Duff in just one or two seasons.

"We still have Yang! He is a genius. He can play for the first team as long as he exercises for a period of time. And now he is 17 years old, and he can be on standby for the first team immediately if needed." Carl added Blanco's words beside him.

Karl was referring to Yang Feng.He will soon be 17 years old, even if he can't play the main force.But he can also come and play as a substitute.

Arsenal, Wenger's men will have young people aged [-] or [-] as substitutes for the first team every year.

George nodded.With Franck Ribery and Yang Feng, although they are both young and in a mess.But as a substitute, it is still qualified.They are usually allowed to play in the youth team and the reserve team, and when a substitute is needed, they can be allowed to play in the first team.

"There is also the problem of the left back. James is an excellent defender in our Blackburn youth academy. Although he is young, he can play both in the center and on the left. He is an all-around player."

What Karl was talking about was James McCheveli, the only young guard this year.This is a young player trained by Blackburn himself. Although he is not as famous as Ribery and Yang Feng in the youth team.But it is a very practical defender.

Many Blackburn coaches are very optimistic about Micheverli.

Also recommended to the first team.George has seen Michevelli's game.This is a player who is fast, fit, and has a good header and tackle.But if there is a shortcoming, it is that there is a little problem with the positioning at the central defender position.

Of course, this has something to do with Mechevelli's youth.

"Well. Frank and James have entered the first team. If Yang can also enter the first team, but even so we still need to buy players."

Especially the defense, still need to continue to add players.

"This time we have brought in some young players. It is best to have some local English players. You can find some young players among the clubs in the League One. Of course, you can also look for them among the English national teams at all levels."

…………

Blackburn now has a complete range of departments.

When George assigned the task, a list of young players who fit George's ideas soon came to George's table.There are also clips of their games, and even the scouts' descriptions of the technical characteristics of these players, as well as their evaluation of their development prospects.

The list is long.There are seventeen people in total.This also made George understand that there are still many young talents emerging in England.Although many people will soon fall, there are still new stars emerging.

George began to analyze the characteristics of these players.

George is looking for a player who fits Blackburn's characteristics.

Soon George found someone.Even if this person is a bit famous in the future English football.Although he can't compare with British foot-level defenders like Terry and Ferdinand, he is also a very good player.

Anyway, what George needs now is a substitute player.

A few guys were able to find a spot between Campbell and Lucio.And being able to serve as a substitute for them is also a good thing.

This person is Joleon Lescott.

It was Lescott who later transferred to Manchester City at a sky-high price.

Lescott is now an England U20 international.Playing for Wolves in the League One.Although the Wolves finally got promoted last season and became a Premier League club.But in the face of a strong Premier League team like Blackburn, they simply have no power to fight back.

So George set his sights on Lescott.Lescott is still young, and playing football is a bit rash.But in any case, they are all England U20 internationals, and their strength is still acceptable.Even if it is placed in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, it can still be the main force.

During the promotion process of the Wolves, Lescott performed very well.So it's not just the Blackburn team that is concerned about Lescott.

Such players are of course highly recommended by club scouts.

So George circled Lescott's name.

The next thing George noticed was a real young player.A young player who has just debuted for half a season, the young left-back Leighton Baines from Wigan Athletic.

Baines only started to play in League One in October last year.

In the next half of the season, although the number of games played was limited.But it was still remembered by Blackburn's scouts.In this list, there is also Bynes' name.

Baines, as a fan, George knows it very well.

This is a powerful general.Among Moyes' Everton, he is the out-and-out main left-back.And he is a very capable left-back in the Premier League.Strong offensive power, of course, the defensive ability is not weak.

Just too young.

If he comes to Blackburn so soon, George is really afraid of ruining such a young talent.After all, what young players need is competition.At Blackburn, it's impossible for them to get more games.

After all, Blackburn is not a place to develop young players.Blackburn is a champion team and a club that aims to win the championship.It is impossible to sacrifice the performance of the club for the growth of young talents.

George liked these young talents, but felt that sacrificing them was a crime.

But soon George shook his head.

Lao Tzu is not a saint.What their careers will look like in the future is none of my business!

George is the head coach of the club.Now that the club lacks a substitute, these young players are a good addition.If the operation is good, after a few years, maybe even if you can't become the main force of Blackburn, you can still sell it at a good price.

Anyway, no matter how you operate it, you are a business that is sure to make a profit without losing money.

So George drew another circle in Baines' name.

Lescott and Baines are both native English players.This will also be able to enrich Blackburn's local power in England.Now speaking of Blackburn's local power in England is still very weak.

Currently among the main Blackburn players, only Campbell and Hargreaves are native English players.

Soon Blackburn was in motion.

Getting Lescott and Bynes was easy.

Lescote has long been reluctant to stay in League One.As an international player for U18 and U20, Lescott is eager to have a bigger stage.Although the Wolves have struggled to upgrade, they are still the most popular team for relegation in the Premier League.

But Blackburn is completely different.Blackburn is a champion team that can win the Premier League and even the Champions League.So after being lured by Blackburn, Lescott immediately decided to come to Blackburn.

Although Blackburn has Lucio and Campbell, Lescott knows that he went to Blackburn, and it is no problem to be the third central defender.Or between Lucio and Campbell, if someone gets injured, Lescott can replace them immediately.

This time the decision was risky.

It is possible to get lost in Blackburn.But it can also be an opportunity to fly into the sky.Lescott chose to take the risk, so he quickly agreed to Blackburn.

The Wolves are unwilling to let Lescott go, after all, they have just been promoted.But in front of Blackburn's banknotes, he can only subdue obediently.Blackburn bought Lescott for £500 million.

500 million pounds, it can also be seen how valuable the value of England's local players is.A young central defender who has only played in League One is worth £500 million.But now George doesn't care about £500 million at all.

£500 million?In the current Premier League, transfers are all small and cannot be smaller.

The news from Baines' side was also very fast.

In fact, Baines in history is definitely a very rational and thoughtful player.When he was most famous, even Manchester United and Arsenal wanted to buy him.But Baines did not waver, but continued to stay in League One and Wigan Athletic.

It is because Baines is unwilling to enter the rich family too soon because he is deeply involved in the world.

But that's the historical Bynes.

At that time, Baines was already in his 20s and had his own judgment.But now Baines does not have that ability.Because now Baines is only 19 years old in more than four months.

Baines is now at a passionate age.

Blackburn's main left-back Riise was only 20 years old when he was the main player.Therefore, Baines is now a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

You Riise can become Blackburn's main left-back at the age of 20, why can't I Baines.He still doesn't know what kind of competition he will face once he enters a strong team.Therefore, Baines also quickly agreed to join Blackburn.

Baines, even cheaper.

As a young player who just played last season, the total number of appearances is less than ten.

Not even £30 worth.But because Blackburn bought him, Wigan Athletic still held back for a while.After George threw [-] pounds to Wigan Athletic, Wigan Athletic let Baines go.

The transfer of Lescott and Baines did not even appear in English football.

English football is now busy watching Chelsea's actions.As for the few strong Premier League teams, there are no big moves this summer.Blackburn turned out to have only spent less than 500 million pounds.The transfer income from selling players exceeded 4000 million pounds.

Of course, George did not end the transfer like this.

　There are only two more.
