Chapter 547 Young People Should Be Fearless
The victory over Bolton at home actually did not change Burnley's grim situation at all.

At the end of the 21 rounds, Burnley has accumulated [-] points and is still the bottom team in the Premier League.But this victory must not be underestimated.Because this is the first time in nearly ten games, he has won.Great inspiration for the young Burnley players.

Young people lack stability.

But the least lacking is passion.

The victory of a game brought them encouragement that no one could have imagined.

Unfortunately, the schedule is not good.Because of the No.20 second round of the Premier League, Burnley is about to challenge Manchester United away.

Manchester United is the well-deserved overlord of the Premier League in recent seasons.From the beginning of the 06-07 season to last season, the Premier League has won three consecutive championships.There is also a Champions League winner.It is the best performing team in Europe in recent seasons.

Although Ronaldinho was lost this season, Manchester United also bought Valencia.Valencia have performed very well this season.There is also Irving who came for free.

The strength has declined, but it is still the best team in the Premier League.

It is not easy to come to Old Trafford this time.Especially for those young people at Burnley, Old Trafford is a place to look up to.Therefore, on the way to Old Trafford, these young players have no bottom in their hearts.

Actually speaking, George didn't know the bottom line.

That's Manchester United.Even when he coached Blackburn, George was not absolutely sure that he would be able to beat Manchester United.Not to mention Blackburn, no giant in Europe dare say that they can beat Manchester United.

And he is now leading Burnley.Burnley, whose strength is not known to be many times lower than Blackburn.

But there is no bottom in my heart, but I can't show weakness.

So George was on the bus, stood up and clapped his hands.

"We're going to Old Trafford. How about it, are you a little scared?"

Those young players looked up at George.Even if there is some timidity in my heart, I can't really say it out.Otherwise it would be too embarrassing.We are all Premier League players, why should we be afraid of you.

"Saul, remember how we played against Manchester United?"

George looked at Campbell with a smile.

Campbell is definitely the most accomplished player at Burnley right now.The main central defender of the England national team for ten years, and the main central defender of Blackburn in his peak period.

"Manchester United? What is Manchester United? When we won three consecutive Premier League titles and the Champions League, Manchester United hadn't won the championship for many years. At that time, Ferguson was about to leave get out of class." The young players present knew what Campbell was talking about. Blackburn's score.

But for them, Blackburn is very hateful.

But sometimes that is often the case.In the past ten years, Blackburn has been one of the best teams in Europe.Blackburn's goal has always been the championship, the league title, the Champions League.And Burnley's goal is simple.It is relegation.

So although the two teams are mortal enemies, the Burnley players do not have the same hatred as before.The gap is really too big.Losing to Blackburn without any suspense in every game made them a little desperate.

hate?have.But not as powerful as before.

So listening to Campbell's words, I didn't feel much.

"Yes, Saul is right. What is Manchester United?"

George was satisfied with Campbell.

Campbell obviously understood what George meant, so he echoed George.

"I like young people." George nodded to Campbell, and then continued: "I like young talents. Most of you are young people in their twenties. I like to coach a team composed of you young players. .”

No one would deny what George said.

Like Wenger in European football, George is known for nurturing young players.Although it is not as full of young players as Wenger, but among George's teams, the most indispensable thing is young talents.

"Do you know why?"

"Because young players have a kind of vigor. They are not afraid of anyone or any opponent. No matter they face anyone, they dare to show their strength. So I like young players."

Although George's speech was slow and his tone was not that impassioned.But when George was speaking, everyone looked up and listened carefully to George's words.

"You are at such an age. Manchester United? Is he strong? Even if he is strong, so what. Young people should be fearless!"

"Manchester United is very strong, are you afraid? Are you really afraid?"

Asking gently, it aroused the anger of Burnley's young players.

"Not afraid! Not afraid!"

Looking at the high-spirited young players, George smiled unconsciously.Young players, fearless.And also very easily provoked, just give them a little prodding and they will be like this.

Daniel looked at George and suddenly felt that he was back 12 or 13 years ago.

More than ten years ago, George was still a 27-year-old kid, and he was a young player who had just debuted.

At that time, George often carried out such mobilization in the locker room.This scene is too familiar, too familiar.Daniel was a little unsure, was this a dream?

"Yes, not afraid, we are not afraid." George nodded. "Burnley is a relegation team, but you can't underestimate yourself. Each of you must have a strong heart. Many of you are still young, as long as you have a strong heart in your heart, then your future will be limitless."

"Understood? The heart of the strong!"

George patted his chest.

George doesn't have much of a chance of winning against Manchester United at Old Trafford.But George wants these young players to know that young people should be fearless.

…………

Yes, young people have to be fearless.

After the game started, Burnley actually confronted Manchester United's superstars at Old Trafford, and they did not lose at all.

Facing old monsters like Giggs and Scholes, I have no fear at all.Even in the midfield, Burnley players used running to suppress the midfielder of the classic car.

"Crazy! The Burnley players are completely crazy. After the game started, they suppressed Manchester United at Old Trafford! Unexpected, too unexpected."

Martin Taylor was surprised to see such a positive Burnley.

Ferguson was also taken aback.Then shook his head.George is indeed not simple.A team of Burnley's strength, in the hands of George, has such a performance.But Ferguson was not in a hurry, it was just a little accident.

Burnley relied on temporary courage and hard work to suppress Manchester United, but after all, the strength lies there.As long as the previous three tricks are passed, Ferguson believes that there will be no problem.

What Ferguson thought of, of course George also thought of it.

The opponent is Manchester United.George is not a god, how could it be possible for Burnley to beat Manchester United all of a sudden.

But George didn't remind them.Because the morale of young players cannot be discouraged, once discouraged, the young players will have no advantage.

And George doesn't believe that Manchester United is made of iron.

Manchester United's defensive players have suffered a lot of injuries recently.Just like this game, Park Ji-sung cameo as right back, Ferdinand and Fletcher partnered at center back.This makes Manchester United's defensive line extremely unstable.George believes that Manchester United's defense must give Burnley some opportunities.It depends on how the Burnley players seize this opportunity.

Fear nothing, fear nothing.

Burnley players are not as good as Manchester United in terms of strength, but they far exceed Manchester United in terms of enthusiasm.

In the 10 minutes of the first half, Burnley players ran 1000 meters more than Manchester United as a whole.In other words, each player ran about 1000 meters more than the Manchester United players.It seems that [-] meters is nothing, but in the competition, this is a very amazing gap.

Run more, it looks like Burnley has one more man, or even two more than Manchester United.

Because of the running, Burnley controlled the second spot very well.Almost playing around Manchester United.Although he has not been able to score a goal, he has shot a lot.

By this time Ferguson couldn't sit still.Ferguson thought that in 10 minutes to 10 minutes, the fierce attack of the Burnley players would end.Unexpectedly, the Burnley players seemed to have taken stimulants. After running for 10 minutes, they didn't feel tired at all.

Ferguson's Manchester United has never been the kind of defensive team.

Ferguson is great though.No one denies this.But in terms of nine 10 minutes of defense and nine 10 minutes of concentration, it is definitely not as good as Mourinho.In addition, the current Manchester United defense is not the original main lineup.

Park Ji-sung and Fletcher both came to play guest roles.

George has never reminded the team that there are reasons for this.

George hopes to break through United's defence.It's a pity to underestimate Manchester United.

In 35 minutes of the game, Daniel made a cross from the left.Pushed out by Ferdinand in the middle.

In this game, Giggs, who played in the middle, made a long pass after getting the ball.Rooney, who was still entangled with Burnley's central defender Simon Harker just now, bypassed him very cleverly.Simon Harker, who is very passionate about the game, has many shortcomings in choosing positions and judging the ball.

He didn't even accurately judge Giggs' passing route and let Rooney go.

"... Rooney, he stopped the ball. Campbell in front!"

Rooney didn't slow down at all in the face of Campbell.If Campbell was five or six years ago, Rooney would not have been so crazy.It's a pity that Campbell is too old now.Campbell, who is almost 36 years old, has dropped too much in explosive power and speed.

Now the only thing to rely on is experience.

It's a pity that facing the explosive Rooney, experience is no longer useful.

"Rooney, he surpassed Campbell with speed...Rooney, he is already single-handed!"

This is counterattack.Burnley besieged Manchester United, and there were too few players behind.

"Rooney, shoot! Haha, Grant failed to prevent Rooney's shot! One to zero, Manchester United counterattacked and scored a goal under passive circumstances."

This counterattack is very simple.Giggs' pass, Rooney's breakthrough, created a goal.

George was on the field, and the moment he saw Rooney score, he shook his head.But he quickly collected his energy and stepped forward to shout.Even George himself didn't know what he was shouting.

George clapped his hands to encourage the team.

George told them to be good.Keep cheering the team on.Looking at the young players, George just wanted to express that young people should be fearless.It's only one goal behind now, don't lose heart.
