142 Hendry

"Hello Colin."

It's July 17th, and it's been five days since the World Cup ended. At a time when fans around the world wanted to see how the alien Ronaldo led the Brazilian national team to the Hercules Cup, Ronaldo performed erratically in the World Cup final.

Zinedine Zidane's two headers in the final gave France their first World Cup title on home soil. At the same time, a world-class superstar began to be born, and that was Zizu Zidane, who represented this era.

Zidane is not a late bloomer either, and Zidane, who performed well at Cannes, later moved to Bordeaux. In Bordeaux, Zidane not only won the best player in Ligue 1, French footballer of the year and other honors. And in the 95-96 season, he led Bordeaux to the final of the League Cup, although the game was lost, but Zidane's wonderful performance still attracted the attention of European giants.

And Zidane has another famous battle before, which is the national team debut. Zinedine Zidane's debut came off the bench as the Czechs led France by two goals, and in just 27 minutes remained, the fledgling Zidane scored twice in quick succession to help France equalise.

After then moving to Juventus, Zidane quickly became the heart of Juventus. But even if there is such a result, it may be because Ronaldo and some super strikers in world football at that time were too famous and overshadowed Zidane. Before the World Cup in France, Zidane was not very famous.

However, two headers in the French World Cup final made Zidane immediately famous in world football.

George watched the live broadcast of this final, not that George hadn't watched it before. But this World Cup in France is basically no different from the memory of George's last life, and George knows that his little butterfly has not yet affected the great development of world football.

This should be related to the fact that he has been in the lower leagues of England and has not yet been able to directly affect the general trend of world football. But George believes that with the move to Blackburn, George's little butterfly will have an increasing impact on world football. How the World Cup and the European Championship will change in the future, George can't predict at all.

Of course, George didn't have that much time to think about these things, these were just occasional fleeting thoughts. It's not George's turn to think about these big things.

Now George is most concerned about the new season of Blackburn, George has bought so many players in the new season, and they are already more than ten. It's a big change for Blackburn, so George needs to be consistent. It takes someone to keep the club at bay, and George thinks that person can only be Blackburn Rovers captain Colin Hendry.

But Hendry had already decided to leave Blackburn, so George made an urgent appointment to meet Hendry.

Hendry is not only the old Blackburn Rovers captain, but also the captain of the Scottish national team. In this year's World Cup in France, Hendry led the Scottish team to the World Cup as the captain of the Scottish national team. The blonde Hendry is not the best defender in the world, even if he was in his heyday, he is not a world-class defender.

Hendry, who is now thirty-three years old, is not necessarily much stronger than twenty-year-old Gara in terms of strength. Maybe it's not as good as Gala.

But George doesn't fancy Hendry because of his strength, if you only talk about strength, the combination of Gala and Hyypia is more suitable. The reason George urgently asked Hendry to meet was that Hendry was a banner for Blackburn. In Blackburn's football history, Hendry will definitely occupy a place.

Stephen Hendry is one of Blackburn's key players at the moment and one of the most prestigious players. He's not the best defender in the world, but when he wears Blackburn's jersey, he's a tough guy, a world-class centre-back!

George needs Hendry, and Blackburn, who has changed blood, needs Hendry.

"Hello, Coach Levy." Hendry shook hands with George unnaturally.

This head coach, who is younger than himself, has had a lot of dirt between the two. Especially last season, Hendry was sent off for kicking Klose. In a press conference afterward, George criticised Hendry for a lifetime ban, saying he should not set a bad example for young people.

Hendry is not a good man, and he hit back at George the next day. George should be mindful of his words and actions.

At that time, George and Hendry were very lively in the media, but they didn't expect that in just a few months, George would become the head coach of Blackburn.

"Colin, I heard you're going back to Scotland?" Hendry wants to get back to his roots and get back to the Scottish league.

"Well, I think I'm too old to be fit for the Premier League."

"Colin, I don't want to hide it from you. I have no bottom in Blackburn's heart, and I hope you will stay. "George went straight to the point." You should know that Blackburn Rovers is at a crossroads, and if it is developed well, it may regain its original glory. But if you take one wrong step, you can be doomed. ”

Hendry understands that what George said is doomed, that is, Blackburn Rovers are likely to be relegated to League One. Hendry has been in Blackburn for a long time, and his feelings for Blackburn are definitely deep. It is completely incomparable to George, an outsider who came to Blackburn for work. But Hendry hesitated.

"Coach Levy, I'm getting older. I can't keep up with the intensity of the Premier League. ”

For Hendry, George didn't have any leverage. This is already an accomplished veteran, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for. The only thing George can say about Hendry is Hendry's feelings for Blackburn.

"Colin, I won't hide it from you. When I came to Blackburn, I had a lot of players purged and a lot of new players bought in. Now is Blackburn's most unstable, and I need you to be in Blackburn. Don't say you still have the strength to play, even if you're really old, I want you to help me stabilize the dressing room and the fans. ”

"You should know that I was a manager at Burnley and I didn't have a good relationship with a lot of Blackburn players and fans. Should anything go wrong, Blackburn's future will be slim this season. ”

There's nothing big of a problem in the dressing room, after all, most of the players were bought by George. But on the fans' side, George can't do anything and needs the help of a veteran like Hendry.

Hendry was somewhat moved by George's sincere words, but more worried about Blackburn's future. Because the focus of media coverage is on the World Cup, there is a lot less coverage of the club. Therefore, Hendry is not very clear about the fact that George has already begun to purge the players.

Hearing George's words, Hendry knew that this big blood exchange must be not small. This made Hendry very worried about Blackburn. Although he didn't have a good impression of George, he was still quite convinced of George's coaching ability.

But George's biggest weakness is that George is too young. Although they have two cup titles in hand, the League Cup and the FA Cup, they are still small coaches for those Blackburn Rovers. Whether or not they can handle Blackburn is a big question.

If there are problems, there is a real possibility that Blake will be relegated to the first division. This is something that Hendry is very reluctant to see.

"Coach Levy, you give me time to think about it." Hendry was ready to leave Blackburn, and even the house was about to vacate it. But when he heard George's words, he began to hesitate again.

When George heard Hendry's words, he already understood that Hendry should be almost fine.

"Colin, I hope to make a decision sooner. There will be a lot of new guys coming over this season and you, the veteran captain, should help them settle in with Blackburn. ”

(I want to do it three times, but it's too difficult.) Brothers write a few more words in the next chapter, or go back to the two more. I'm so sorry. )
