Chapter 179: What should a magpie do if the goose plucks its feathers?
Tottenham Hotspur beat Liverpool 2-0 at home, a result that caused quite a stir in English football. After all, Liverpool has made a lot of moves in the transfer market this summer, not only introducing Robbie Keane, Cisse, Luis Garcia and other strong reinforcements, but also inviting Rafa Benitez, the meritorious coach who led Valencia to win the La Liga and League Cup double last season, and the reinforcements are only slightly inferior to Chelsea, which is supported by Abramovich!www.biquge.info
Looking at Tottenham again, George Nelson not only did not continue the aggressive momentum of last summer, only made a few transfers that were considered to be remedial in the eyes of people, but also successively sold Heinze, Carrick, Robbie Keane and Luka Toney and other absolute main or important rotation players, resulting in a lot of impact on the overall strength of the team. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Tottenham Hotspur, who are fighting at home, is bound to usher in a tough battle!
That's why the result of this game is so shocking. Because Liverpool, who are widely favored, have never taken advantage of Tottenham in the slightest. If it weren't for the help of the goalposts, the Reds might have even swallowed more than four shots in the opening game of the league!
After witnessing Tottenham's almost overwhelming defeat to Liverpool, the British media, which had been criticized for George's summer recruitment, immediately turned their guns and began to frantically tout his signings, saying that Alonso is Guardiola's second, Quarklozer can be called the reincarnation of Gerd Muller, and the decent Evra has become a qualified successor to Lizarazu in their mouths, and even Mendieta and Robben, who have not yet officially played for Tottenham, have been given high expectations by the media!
Despite the outpouring of hype, Tottenham and Hotspur did not pay much attention to the comments. Because most of them are well aware of how two-faced these media really are!
George was naturally extremely pleased with the calm attitude shown by the players. After all, too many teams have fallen into this kind of flamboyant atmosphere, and George doesn't want Tottenham to be the next unlucky one.
After beating Liverpool and achieving their first league win of the new season, after a week's rest, George led the entire Tottenham team to St James' Park to challenge Newcastle United, who also underwent a major change in the summer!
"George, have you thought about it, what kind of attitude should we use to deal with this game against Newcastle?" Sitting on the train to Newcastle, the elder Charlie once again brought up the question that had been put on hold for several days, "Do you want to kill them all at once?"
"Hmm...... I've talked to the old man about this before. Seeing that old Charlie took the initiative to bring up the matter, George couldn't help but recall the conversation with old Robson before he left, as he considered how to make a decision.
"Old man. The day before leaving for Newcastle, George found the old Robson who was checking the player information in the office, and asked a question that had been held in his heart for a long time, "Tomorrow is our game against Newcastle, is there anything I need help with?"
"Boy, I'm glad you can have this kind of thought. Robson Sr. hesitated for a moment, but finally politely rejected George's offer, "However, leaving Newcastle is a personal vendetta between me and Shepard." Boy, it's better not to mix it in. As the owner and manager of Tottenham Hotspur, it's not a good thing for you to make too many enemies, and it's not a smart move. ”
Despite being betrayed by Newcastle management and players at the end of his managerial career, and chilling by Shepard's actions, Robson Sr. did not intend to involve George in this dispute, let alone make him pay such a huge price for himself!
If George pursues Newcastle to the end in order to give Robson Sr. a bad breath, then Tottenham will inevitably have one more enemy in English football, which will bring unnecessary trouble to George's career.
"I've decided, Charlie. In this game, I have to breathe a sigh for the old man!" After a long silence, George finally did not hold back the idea of wanting to take revenge on Newcastle, and left old Robson's instructions behind. For him, who is extremely emotional, if he doesn't teach these white-eyed wolves a hard lesson and leave them a profound lesson, then he will always leave a thorn in his heart that can never be pulled out!
It doesn't matter if George is seeking self-gratification, or if he is avenging old Robson. All in all, George set the tone for Tottenham's game, which was to go all out to beat Newcastle, and the more the scoreline, the better!
Don't say it's Newcastle, you magpie, even if it's a phoenix with Nirvana skills, I'm going to pluck all your hair and avenge the old man!
To be honest, George and Charlie Sr. at this time have forgotten a very important point, that is, Newcastle is not a fish to be slaughtered on the chopping board, and it is not like Liverpool with obvious flaws in the squad configuration. You know, Newcastle was able to finish sixth in the league last season in an environment of civil unrest, which is enough to prove the strength of the Magpies!
However, even so, neither George nor Old Charlie took this Newcastle team under Souness seriously. In the eyes of the two, Newcastle without the old Robson is no different from the fish and meat on the board to be slaughtered!
While this may seem like George being a bit conceited, it's just the way it is. You know, Newcastle never returned to the first group after Robson Sr. left, and was relegated from the Premier League after just five seasons. And the magpie in this life is destined to not escape this fate!
When Robson Sr. was at Newcastle, the coach could also use his high prestige and coaching skills to suppress these bad boys in the team and ensure the minimum harmony and stability in the dressing room. And now that the old Robson is leaving, there is no iron-blooded coach to take over, and the Magpies management is still making trouble, no one can stop these people from destroying this team that once had a bright future!
In this way, at 4 pm on August 21, the whole Tottenham team arrived at St. James' Park on time by bus, ready to challenge Newcastle United!
