Chapter 487
After the four-to-one loss to Arsenal, the voices mocking Blackburn became louder and louder.

Mark Lawrenson is like a holiday these days.

Anyway, the worse George's grades were, the happier Mark Lawrenson would be.

"George's myth is coming to an end soon. Does Blackburn still have money to buy players now? How much transfer fee can Blackburn give George now?"

"I heard that George and Blackburn signed a new five-year contract. I am very curious, without financial support, I wonder if George can continue his myth? Five years, Blackburn will be in debt for the next five years. Five In the middle of the year, George will never have such a big money of 1000 to [-] million pounds to buy Ferdinand, never again."

"Now that Campbell is injured, Blackburn's defense immediately becomes a paper defense. I don't know if Blackburn still has the money to buy a defender to replace Campbell?"

Blackburn have done really well over the years.

Okay to make everyone jealous.

Mark Lawrenson has been in the vanguard of criticizing George.

Because of the good grades in the past few years, I have been honest for a while.Now after seeing so many problems with George, I can't wait to come out and criticize George.

George was already in a bad mood, how could he bear Mark Lawrenson's criticism.

"I have been coaching Blackburn for the seventh season. In these seven seasons, my net expenditure in the transfer market is the least among the top teams in the Premier League. Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle, Tottenham, No club spends more than me. Even Arsenal spends more than me."

"Mr. Laurenson doesn't understand such things as doing great things with little money."

"It is a fact that our club is short of money. But without the transfer fee, it will not affect our club's performance. Campbell is very important, but we have other defenders who can take his place. Joleon Lescott and James Mechevelli are all good. They can all replace Campbell."

"We are for a great goal. After we build our new stadium, we will be the club with the most luxurious stadium in Europe. We are one step closer to becoming a European giant."

However, George's remarks were considered by the media to be stubborn.

Although the net spending in the transfer market Blackburn is very little.But when George took over Blackburn, George also spent a lot of money.Including the purchase of Pires and Micoud, both cost 600 million pounds.

It was not cheap at the time.

And later, when he bought Ferdinand for 1000 million pounds for 1000 pounds, Alonso for more than 700 million pounds, and gave Campbell a signing fee of [-] million pounds, George was not stingy at all.But in the future, this kind of bold transfer may not be seen.

But modern football happens to be money football. If you have no money, everything you say is useless.

Results are the root of everything.

You were beaten by Arsenal in the last game, and you are ashamed to say that it will not affect the club's results.I am ashamed to say that I want to enter the European giants.

Everyone is looking forward to the next game.

Wait until the next game to know whether Blackburn's loss to Arsenal was an accident or a result of strength.

Because of the fourth round of the Premier League, Blackburn played against Manchester United at home.

Manchester United's defense is not very good.

In particular, Ferdinand's partner Woodgate has never shown his performance in Leeds United in Manchester United.When they debuted that year, Woodgate and Ferdinand received the same affirmation in English football.I think they will be the main defender of the England national team in the future.

But the development trajectories of the two are completely different.

Ferdinand broke the world defender worth record twice in a row.

And another person, Woodgate's career is getting worse and worse.Now gradually being pushed down by Brown, he can only play as a substitute at Manchester United.But Brown was fierce, but very frizzy.Defender, being too aggressive is not a good thing.

This is especially true for the Heinze that I just bought this summer.Heinze's strength and speed are good, his kicking style is extremely fierce, and he is good at pounce and punch, which can inflict greater damage and deterrence on the opponent.However, it is easy to get hotheaded and jump too hard, which is also one of Heinze's weaknesses. He has a lot of fouls, and his sense of position and defensive awareness are hard to say.

Heinze is a real fighter.

It's a pity that defenders don't really need this kind of fierce player.

Nesta, when have you ever seen him get very angry.His playing is an art, but he is the best defender in the world.

Manchester United's start to the season is not very good, even worse than Blackburn.

Manchester United's first game of the season is away to Chelsea.Mourinho is a master of counterattacks, but also a master of finding loopholes in the opponent's defense.Beat Manchester United [-]-[-] at home.

In the second round of the Premier League, Manchester United played Norwich at home.Facing a weak team like Norwich, Manchester United turned out to be a very difficult two-to-one victory at home.In the third round of the game, Manchester United postponed the game because of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers.

It can be said that Manchester United's state is very poor.

The same goes for Blackburn's backline.Lescott's frontal defense and high-altitude defense are both very good.It's a pity that the sense of location is not good.Maicon, on the other hand, likes assists.But in defense, there are also many weaknesses.

There are big problems in the defense of both sides.

So playing Manchester United, George never thought about defending.

It depends on who is more powerful in the attack of the two sides.Look at whose defense, there are more problems.

Therefore, in this game, George has completely assembled an absolute offensive lineup.

Pires, Kaka, Micoud, Alonso were used in the midfield, and Drogba and Arshavin were used in the striker.

So did Ferguson.Rooney did not appear in the game due to injury.Manchester United's midfield is Keane, Scholes, Giggs, Ronaldinho, while the forwards are Ruud van Nistelrooy and Smith.

Both sides are playing offensive football.

And they all aim at each other's loopholes.

Blackburn is the left side of the main attack on Manchester United, because Heinze has the most problems along the way.Although Gary Neville has never been considered the best right back in the world, he is the most stable right back in world football.

He guarded Manchester United's right flank for more than ten years and rarely made low-level mistakes.

His biggest characteristic is stability.

So George put the main direction of offense in the direction of Heinze.

The direction of Manchester United's breakthrough was placed on Maicon's side.Because Maicon has good body and fast speed, but he is not a qualified right back yet.Especially in defense, there are too many problems.

Therefore, Manchester United and Blackburn's offensive direction is the same.

After the start, the pace of the game was very fast.

Both sides hope to take the lead before the other side reacts.

Blackburn's offensive combination has been coordinated for many years.Including Alonso, Pires, Miku and Kaka, they are the main players for Blackburn to win the 03 Premier League title and the 04 Champions League title.The cooperation is very tacit.

On the Manchester United side, although Keane, Scholes, and Giggs belong to the 92 generation, Ronaldinho on the other side is a self-centered person.

Ronaldinho hasn't figured it out yet.Still obsessed with his own technology.

For Ronaldinho, Ferguson will have to wait two years until he gets the hang of it.

Therefore, after the game started, Blackburn had the advantage.

Seeing Manchester United's offense, George believes that this game should be able to win.

In the 32nd minute of the first half, Ronaldinho passed the ball into the penalty area after dribbling the ball.It's a pity that the pass was not very good, and was pushed out by Lucio.After Alonso got it, he handed it to Kaka in front.Kaka was also passed to Micoud.

Blackburn players have a deep understanding of counter-attacking.When counterattacking, it is speed.In addition to the speed of the players, there is also the speed of passing the ball.

The ball was passed from Alonso, and it was already passed to Micoud's feet with just two passes.At this time, Micoud was already within 40 meters of Manchester United's goal.

"Miku...Miku, pass the ball!"

When Micoud got the ball, Keane posted it.Miku didn't get entangled with Kean either, because it would be a waste of time to tangle with him.He passed it to Arshavin in front of him.

"beep--"

Micoud passed the ball, but was tackled by Keane.

Keane saw that Blackburn's counterattack was too fast.So he rushed up, and with a tackle, directly shoveled Miku down.

For Keane, this kind of tackle is too common.

So is Miku.

In the Premier League for so many years, as the best midfielder in the Premier League, Micoud has suffered countless violations.This kind of tackle is also quite a lot.

This tackle is just a side tackle, which is much lighter than the back tackle, side rear tackle, and the tackle directly facing the supporting foot.

But George saw the most unwanted side.

Miku lay on the lawn, unable to get up.

George was a little confused at this moment.Is it really cursed?

Miku is injured!
Really hurt!
And it doesn't look bad.George couldn't figure out why he was so unlucky?

George prayed, though, that Micoud's injury wasn't too serious.Because Micoud had a lot of injuries last season.It's just minor injuries, like a week or two at a time.

But seeing the team doctor shaking his head, George's heart became heavier and heavier.

George replaced Parker to replace Micoud.

Parker wasn't bad either.But not as good as Miku.And Micoud's injury was a big blow to Blackburn.George can only retreat to counterattack defensively.Fortunately, Manchester United's state was also very poor, and in the end the two sides played one to one.

Two wins, one draw and one loss in four games, accumulating seven points.

Blackburn's ranking is not bad.But George's mood is getting worse and worse.

Because of Miku's injury came out.

Achilles tendon injury, at least three months of rest.

Micoud is Blackburn's third serious injury this year.Five months for Sagnol, half a year for Campbell, and now three months for Micoud.This made George wonder what to say.
