George has a lot of experience in dealing with a team with a technical stream like Galatasaray.

Just like in the Premier League, Leeds United George is the best way to deal with it. So far, in the collision with Leeds United, George has the absolute upper hand.

Galatasaray's attack was strong. There is Hassan on both wings. Sass and Humet. Both men are fast and technically excellent wide players. With the addition of Hadji, Okan and Emre in the midfield, it is completely a technical midfield combination.

However, their defense is not as good as their offense.

They relied entirely on their attacking prowess and the opportunity to take advantage of many European teams who were unfamiliar with Turkish clubs to reach the UEFA Cup final.

Galatasaray were able to win against Leeds United, and there was something to do with the death of two fans in an away match in Istanbul. But it was Leeds United who were in defense and couldn't keep Galatasaray at bay.

There is also Leeds United's midfield scramble, and they have not been able to fight other people's midfielders.

But Blackburn doesn't have that problem.

All George had to do was press down Galatasaray's midfield and then break down their defence with attack.

Trim, of course, can't let Blackburn control the midfield so easily, so he wants to take back control of the midfield.

In Galatasaray's midfield, of course, Okan's position is paramount. Because Galatasaray's entire tempo is controlled by Okan. But there is also one person who is very important, and that is Emre.

If Okan is Galatasaray's metronome, then Haji is Galatasaray's most dangerous midfielder. In particular, Haji's passing is unpredictable and unpredictable.

But the role of midfielder Emre is absolutely very important.

Emre is an accelerator, not only in defence, but more importantly the most impactful of the few in midfield at the moment.

In a team's attack, two wings can pull away from the opponent's defense. But if there is also a player with a strong impact in the middle, then a sudden insertion will also be the biggest threat to the opposing team.

One of the best midfield combinations George has seen in his previous life was Liverpool under Rafael Benitez.

At that time, Liverpool's midfield triangle was Mascherano, Alonso and Gerrard. At that time, the division of labor was very clear, Mascherano was in charge of the defence, Alonso was in charge of the team's tempo, and Gerrard was the player with a strong impact.

This midfield is definitely a classic combination. Although Galatasaray's midfield cannot be compared to Liverpool's midfield, they share the same characteristics. Emre's role is somewhat similar to that of Steven Gerrard, who was an absolutely indispensable part of Galatasaray's midfield.

However, after Trim adjusted, it was found that Emre had not been in the groove for a long time.

There is no sharpness of the past, and there is no murderous aura of the past. On the contrary, he was a little timid, and this discovery made Trim curse Blackburn fiercely in his heart.

Compared to Hakan. Sooke, Emre is too young. After being affected by the transfer, I was not able to adjust my state properly. I can't find the feeling of the past on the field.

"Deco ...... It was passed directly to Klose in front. Klose drops back to get the ball, Popescu is on the defensive ......"

Klose was very active from the start. And Klose is not the kind of center forward who stands up, so he often drops back to get the ball.

Before the game, some media were also analyzing whether George was dissatisfied with Klose and wanted to use Hakan. Suke came to replace Klose. Such a statement is still very marketable, and many people still agree with it.

But Klose didn't take that perception seriously at all. The tacit understanding between Klose and George is not something that outsiders can understand. Klose has always been under pressure. While at Burnley, Robbie. Keane, Kevin. Phillips are both strong strikers. But George was a hard-pressed man to make Klose a striker.

And when it comes to Blackburn, there are more good forwards. George had a lot of transfer fees in his hands at that time, and some of them were options. But George still trusted Klose.

Klose is also competitive. No matter how loud the doubts outside are, they have not wavered in the slightest. Although there were fewer goals, they were able to complete the tasks assigned by George every time. And this season, the goals have opened up a lot.

This tacit understanding between George and Klose was cultivated by the two over a five-year period. It's not something that outsiders can understand by saying just a few words.

After Klose got the ball, he looked at Popescu in the corner.

Popescu is the backbone of the Romanian defence and the heart of Galatasaray's defence. He is a very good scavenger, and it is only because Klose has just brought him out that he will follow Klose.

It's just that Popescu is now older, and he is already thirty-three years old this year.

Klose...... Popescu couldn't keep Klose at bay. ”

After Klose got the ball, there was no pause, and suddenly there was a start. Klose is very explosive, and although Popescu values Klose very much, Klose still bursts in from the left side of Popescu.

But Popescu is no ordinary person. Although he is old, his physical fitness has decreased a lot. But there is enough experience and excellent awareness.

Although he was passed by Klose, Popescu did not panic at all. Giving up the outside line, it was already stuck in the penalty area, not allowing Klose to have a chance to shoot.

Klose didn't care at all and continued to walk outside.

"Klose's skills have really grown a lot. Look at Klose in the box now, without the slightest crampedness. ”

Indeed, Klose has seen a lot of the world. Klose's technique is also becoming more and more delicate, even in the face of the encirclement and suppression of several defenders, he is not in a hurry. Popescu defended the interior, while the rest of the defenders had begun to surround Klose.

"Klose is already near the bottom line, there's nothing more he can do. What will he choose? ”

Klose's situation is indeed not good, surrounded on three sides, there is not a trace of gap. Everyone was thinking that Klose should be ideally aiming for a corner kick at this time. But Klose kept his head down with the ball down, and it was impossible to see what he wanted to do.

Just when everyone thought the ball was going to be taken out by Klose, Klose gently wiped the inside of his left foot. The ball was passed through a small gap between the two centre-backs who surrounded Klose.

The speed of the ball was not fast, it was just beyond the expectations of the defenders.

Along the path of the ball, a player wearing a blue and white jersey with a large "10" printed on the back of the jersey shot fiercely at the ball.

"Miku! It's Miku! ”

"Taffarel, he didn't react at all. The ball was too close, and so sudden, that Tafarel didn't have time to react at all. ”

"Haha, it's only been 32 minutes and Blackburn Rovers are already 1-0 ahead of Galatasaray. George's rhetoric is still fresh in my ears, and George is only one step away from winning the League Cup. ”

"Eighty percent of the credit for this goal should be Klose's. Klose attracted all the defenders and then made a very sudden pass that completely penetrated Galatasaray's defence. ”

"Whoever says that Klose became the main force because of George's connections, I have to be anxious with him."

See the goal Mortenson's sudden commentary.

"Yes, this ball shows Klose to the fullest. Klose is not a simple goalscorer, but an all-round striker who can pass and shoot. After five years of waiting, George finally waited for a world-class striker. ”

Alan. Hansen also agrees with Mortenson.

Miku was thrilled when he saw the goal. and Klose, who assisted him, hugged fiercely.

Although Miku is almost the same age as Zidane, his fame cannot be compared with Zidane. Zinedine Zidane has been a talented player in France since he was a child. So far, he has won the UEFA Super Cup, the Toyota Cup, the Serie A and so on. He has even won the runner-up of the League Cup and the runner-up of the Champions Cup twice.

Not to mention that Zidane led France to a World Cup title.

Zinedine Zidane began his Ligue 1 debut at the age of 17. By the age of 24, he had already become the main midfielder of Juventus, the world giant at that time. At the age of 26, he became a world champion. Got Mr. Football.

And Miku, who is only one year younger than Zidane, is already twenty-seven years old. However, he has not won any championships so far, so it can be said that Miku's honor roll is still empty.

At the age of 27, it can be said that he is already at the peak of a player. If you can't get any accolades at this time, then basically that's how the player's career is.

So Miku is very much grateful for the opportunity to make the final of the League Cup now.

Miku was not willing to pass up this opportunity. This UEFA Cup Miku is a must-have.

"John. Miku! ”

"Miku! Miku! ”

"Champion! We want a championship! ”

"We don't need Zidane because we have John. Miku. ”

Because many media have compared Zidane and Miku together. So when the fans sing Miku, every time there will be this sentence "We don't need Zidane".

When Miku scored, the 14,000-seat Blackburn fans immediately boiled.

George on the sidelines was even more excited when he saw Miku's goal. Get down on your knees and clasp your hands.

It was the final of the UEFA Cup and George's first European Cup final. George was very nervous. Unlike domestic competitions such as the League Cup and FA Cup, once George won the League Cup. Then George will be able to make a name for himself in European football immediately.

Not just George, but all of the Blackburn benches were boiling. 1-0, Blackburn had a lead over Galatasaray.

"Look at George, it's really exciting. Although George is a big mouth, he is still cool on the sidelines. I'm not too excited, I won't make such an exciting move. ”
