George is now complacent, too. George himself didn't expect Blackburn Rovers to be in such amazing form this season.

In particular, the attackers in the front court, Miku, Pire, Klose and Duff are in very good shape. Klose maintained his form from last season, scoring seven goals in ten games. And Klose has played not all ten games, but seven. Seven goals in seven games, that's an impressive percentage of goals. Miku's control in the front court is becoming more and more comfortable, and Pire's breakthrough is becoming sharper and sharper.

Either way, it's a 10-game winning streak. George's lack of excitement is fake.

It's just that because there are so many games, there is no time to celebrate. Otherwise, George would have liked to have celebrated with his players.

On September 23, after the match against Bradford, Blackburn Rovers sat at home to Lazio from Italy. The match was scheduled for September 28.

Unlike Blackburn, who have already played ten games, the current Serie A league has not even started.

The Serie A season has been postponed to October 1. That is, a month later than in previous years. As a result, Lazio have not played in the league until now, only playing two Champions League games.

There are pros and cons to this.

This is also a common occurrence in the Chinese media. But their ability to make excuses is the best in the world.

If the opponent's situation is the same as Lazio's, then once the Chinese team loses the game, the Chinese media will say that the opponent did not play in the league and has enough physical strength. And because Chinese clubs play in the league, they are not only distracted, but also physically inferior to their opponents.

Of course, once it is the Chinese club, the situation is the same as that of Lazio. In the end, if the game is lost, the Chinese media will say that the Chinese club has not played in the league, so it has not entered the rhythm of the game.

In fact, there is truth to both of these statements.

If you don't play in the league, it's not easy to get into the rhythm of the game. But again, Lazio has a complete physical advantage over Blackburn. But this kind of stuff is just talk. When you really get on the field, you still have to look at your real skills.

The three clubs in Italy playing in the Champions League this time have two tough matchups in this game.

One is Juventus against Deportivo La Coruna, and the other is AC Milan against Barcelona. Both of their teams drew lots to reach the Group of Death.

Milan's side is okay, with one win and one draw in the first two rounds, and the hope of breaking through is still quite big. But Juventus is in a very bad situation.

They lost to Arsenal in the first round, and Juventus were held to a 1-1 draw by Panathinaikos, the weakest team in the group, in the second round. Considered to be the belly of the fish at the time of the draw, Panathinaikos showed amazing strength in the first two rounds.

In the first round, Deportivo La Coruna drew and in the second round, Juventus. Juventus have only picked up one point from two rounds of matches and are bottom of the group stage. Arsenal are top of the table with one win and one draw, while Deportivo La Coruna and Panathinaikos both have two points.

Juventus has now reached the most important stage. Once there is another mistake against Deportivo La Coruna, Juventus, the Serie A giant, will fall in the group stage.

There are two heavyweight matches, but the Italian media is more focused on the Lazio and Blackburn matches.

Although Lazio and Blackburn Rovers are also strong conversations, they basically have no problems breaking through this group. These two teams are just competing for the first place in the group. But the attention it received turned out to be more than the other two games.

This is mainly because George is too famous, or rather notorious.

In Italian football, Giorgio is a stinky street. There is basically no one in Italian football who does not know George. Giorgio has been a public enemy of Italian football since last year. From the start of the win over Roma, Giorgio has been counting Italian football.

This made the always proud Italian football people very angry, so they also hated Giorgio very much.

It's just that until now, George has only played against Roma. And the game was won.

Therefore, Italian football hopes that there will be an Italian club that can teach Giorgio a good lesson, an arrogant and arrogant boy.

Lazio's current strength is exactly like the middle of the sky. Lazio's squad is not far behind even those European football giants. Let Lazio teach George a good lesson, and let George know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is.

As a result, there were many Italian journalists who followed Lazio to Blackburn. There are nearly 30 people here, and this is completely the treatment of the Champions League knockout round.

There were even Lazio reporters who shouted before the game: "Roma take a good look, how we dealt with Blackburn." ”。

………… Blackburn Rovers fans are passionate about the Champions League itself. And this time Blackburn Rovers came to a strong team from Italy, last season's Serie A champion.

Blackburn fans don't care who the opponent is?

We've beaten Real Madrid, Lazio is nothing!

Therefore, this game Blackburn fans are more enthusiastic.

Williams looked at the fans who were standing on the sidelines because they didn't have tickets, and his heart was getting happier and happier. The Champions League, it's a good game. The ticket price alone is more expensive than the regular league, and there are still so many fans.

Playing in the Champions League, there are bonuses, there are broadcast fees, and these tickets, which is a very high income for a club.

Still, Williams has some grievances.

Ewood Park is just too small. It can only accommodate 30,000 people, which is too wasteful. Blackburn is small, but it has 140,000 people. And in the whole of Blackburn, there is only one professional club in Blackburn. All Blackburn citizens are Blackburn supporters.

And Blackburn is not a big place, but the whole of Lancashire is not small. In particular, several non-metro areas next to Blackburn include Preston, Jolly, Rosendale, and Hindburn. They do have their own professional teams, but the highest level of those teams is League One.

That is, Preston North End Football Club. With the exception of Preston North End, the rest of the clubs are in the third division, the fourth division and even the national league.

Because the place is very close, at this time, fans from their places, including Rosendale and Hindburn, also came to support Blackburn.

George's former Burnley was poor, but Lancashire was not. There are many rich English people in Lancashire, and the quantity and quality of the rich English people in Lancashire are among the best in the whole of England.

So in Williams' view, the potential for Blackburn's development goes beyond that.

30,000 people is still too small compared to the huge number of fans.

Williams suddenly had the idea of building a new stadium. However, this idea was fleeting, after all, building a new stadium is definitely not easy. Hundreds of millions of pounds are needed. That's not a small amount.

George came to the field early, without any tension before the big game.

George looked at Lazio warming up there and shook his head in his heart. Now Lazio is strong, from goalkeeper to defender, midfielder, striker are all world-renowned players. It's a pity that such a group of good players, just after winning the league championship, will fall apart.

Lazio is also a team that has fallen quite regrettably after the football bubble.

At this time, Eriksen also came to the sidelines. At this time, Eriksen was in high spirits, and the 52-year-old Eriksen had been in charge for more than 20 years. When Eriksen first took charge, he was also a young coach at the age of 30.

George is now a very young coach in European football. It is indeed not easy to achieve such results at George's age.

But Erikson is no slouch. At the age of thirty-four, he led the Swedish club Gothenburg to the UEFA Cup. Just three years later than George. Eriksen went on to win the Portuguese league several times at Benfica.

Of course, the most glorious is of course in Lazio. During his years at Lazio, he won the Coppa Italia, the European Cup Winners' Cup and last season Serie A.

George knew that after Keegan's departure, Eriksen became the head coach of the England national team with a high voice.

As the host, George took the initiative to say hello to Eriksen.

Eriksen, when he was a fan in later generations, George looked down on him. At that time, it was felt that Eriksen blindly indulged the big names in England, and there was no outstanding performance in the England team in his hands.

On the contrary, Eriksen has always had some scandals in the England national team.

George felt at the time that Eriksen was really a useless manager. But I didn't expect to come to this world and become an insider, only to know the current Eriksen fame in European football.

Don't look at Eriksen, who only has the Cup Winners' Cup and the League Cup, and no heavyweight titles like the Champions League. But Eriksen is currently one of the most sought-after managers in European football. If you hadn't actually played in European football, you wouldn't have known that Eriksen had such a glorious moment in European football at this time.

But George just sighed.

Even if Eriksen is famous, can he compare with Ferguson, Robson, and Capello? These world-class coaches George have all beaten, not to mention Eriksen, who George looks down on.

George and Eriksen are playing each other for the first time and meeting for the first time. The two of them just said hello politely, and after that, there was nothing to talk to.

The on-site warm-up was very short, and after a brief warm-up, everyone returned to the locker room.

"It was a match between last season's Serie A champions and second place in the Premier League. Serie A hasn't started yet, but there's no doubt about Lazio's strength. Blackburn, on the other hand, have been in amazing form this season, and are already six points ahead of second-placed Manchester United in the Premier League. ”

"It's a real strong conversation. A match between a strong team in Serie A and a strong team in the Premier League. ”

'Christian Eriksen is a big European manager and George is the youngest manager in the Champions League. The collision between them is sure to be very beautiful. Let's look forward to a good game. ”

Morteson got into the job of a narrator early.
