With a win over Arsenal, Blackburn Rovers immediately became the most talked-about team in English football.

Blackburn's form is so hot that only Manchester United can match it. Seven games, five wins and two draws, second place in the Premier League. They are only three points behind United with a game in hand.

And who is the best striker at the moment? There is no doubt that it is Blackburn Rovers striker Klose. Klose started with a hat-trick in the third round and scored in all of his next four games. That means Klose has scored in six of the six league games he has played in, one in the UEFA Cup. Only the second round of the league did not score.

Klose has seven goals in the Premier League and one in the UEFA Cup so far, and has now scored eight goals this season.

As the two hottest teams, the match between Blackburn Rovers and Manchester United in the ninth round of the Premier League has also received widespread attention.

Most of the headline was one: "Battle for the top of the list!" ”

It's a veritable battle for the top of the table, if United win against Blackburn. Then Manchester United will completely cement their position at the top of the table. And Blackburn Rovers beat Manchester United, then Blackburn will have one less game and tie Manchester United in points.

Of course, if there is a draw, then there will be no other changes between the two teams.

Others are watching the battle for the top scorer. Klose's seven goals are currently the top scorer, followed by Manchester United's Black Wind duo of York and Kerr.

In fact, there is a striker in history this season, who scored 30 goals at Sunderland and became the Golden Boot of the season. That man is Kevin, who is now in Burnley. Phillips.

George was a little sorry for Kevin. Phillips's. Although Phillips never made the top striker, the 99-00 season was Phillips' brightest moment. He scored 30 goals in one season at Sunderland.

However, after being introduced to Phillips by George early, he has not become a real main force at Burnley. During George's time, although Phillips was far more efficient at scoring goals than Klose, George always reused Klose.

And when Phillips became the main force of Burnley, Burnley's strength dropped a lot. At Burnley, it would be impossible to score 30 goals. Whether Burnley can score 30 goals in a season is a big question.

Without George's interference, at least Phillips would have been able to shine for a season.

But at this time, George only felt a little guilty, and then immediately put this thought behind him. Now it's about the game against Manchester United.

…………

On September 25, the weather was not very good. It has been raining since the morning, although the drainage system at Old Trafford is excellent. But this kind of rainy day still has a lot of influence on Blackburn's style of play.

Blackburn Rovers have adapted to the weather in England after last season. In this English weather, a lot of games have been played. So although it can be said that I am used to this kind of weather. But Blackburn's style of play is more based on short passes in the midfield.

So when it rains, there are still a lot of effects.

That's why George hates this kind of rainy weather. But God's business is not under George's control.

Blackburn Rovers have been in amazing form lately and George is also full of confidence. Manchester United, if they crush Manchester United at Old Trafford, it is not impossible to win the Premier League this season. George began to think in his heart about how to get this game in his hands.

"People were saying before the game that this game was the top battle. It suddenly made me feel like I was back in '95, when Blackburn Rovers and Manchester United were competing for the title. In the end, Blackburn won the Premier League title by one point. Mortenson looked at the 80,000 fans at Old Trafford and sighed.

"yes, four years of reincarnation. Blackburn Rovers have finally found a manager who suits them and have a chance to compete for the title with Manchester United. But now that the league has only gone eight rounds, is it too early for us to say that? "Alain. Hansen said with a smile.

"No, no, no, even if Blackburn can't win the title this season, they must be a serious contender for the title." Morteson shook his head. "You look at Blackburn's opponents in the first seven games, with top teams like Leeds United and Arsenal. Blackburn won them out almost without any suspense. This shows that Blackburn Rovers are already strong this year. ”

It may be that the 3-1 win over Arsenal in the last game made Blackburn's players full of confidence. Actually pressed Manchester United at Old Trafford.

But George was proud! Blackburn Rovers are proud!

Have they all forgotten where they are playing now, who they are against? It's Old Trafford, and it's Manchester United, the Premier League giants.

Alex Ferguson is a hard-tempered coach, and Manchester United are not a team willing to pretend to be grandchildren. As the overlords of the Premier League, they have their face. If you force them to be stronger, now that Blackburn are pressing, Manchester United are also responding to Blackburn Rovers toughly.

Keane was in the back, strong. Facing Miku, he was very ruthless. In addition, because it was a rainy day, I couldn't see it. Miku was brought down by Keane on several occasions, and George complained to the fourth referee in the rain on the sidelines.

In George's opinion, Keane should have been sent off a long time ago.

"Coach Levy, please calm down." The fourth referee knew George very well, so he didn't get angry. Instead, he patiently told George that Keane's movements were very measured, and there was absolutely no movement to win cards.

"Shit." George pouted. "You see, he's completely going for people. This is also not a license. Will he be a referee. ”

"Coach Levy, please pay attention. I will put your words into the report. Seeing that George was still unrelenting, the fourth referee warned George with a straight face.

George shrugged and left the fourth referee. In fact, George didn't think Keane got a red card, but there was no yellow card, which made George angry. This is also a kind of pressure on the referee, and if the referee communicates with the fourth referee at halftime, the second half may change.

George is still dissatisfied with the referee in his heart, is this obviously the home whistle? The foul of the Manchester United player, the referee did not blow.

Keane's condition is really good, and he really has the momentum of being a man who can't open anything. not only froze Miku, who has performed well this season, but also intercepted the passes of Pire and Deco in the midfield one by one.

Although there is a reason for the rain, it is also related to Keane's state this season.

Playing Manchester United twice last season, Blackburn took advantage. The first time was to take advantage of the national team game, and the second time it was even more cheap. But this game is completely hard-hitting.

Manchester United fought back strongly, and Blackburn Rovers were not to be outdone. The two sides have completely let go of fighting.

In the 28th minute, Keane grabbed the ball and handed it to Scholes. Scholes turned to Ryan Giggs on the left.

“…… Ryan Giggs, Sagnol have come over to defend. Giggs, breakthrough! ”

Faced with a sudden acceleration of Sarniorgigus, Sarniol fell to the ground with a sliding tackle. However, Giggs skipped Sagnol with a jump after taking the ball. Completely shook off Sagnol and ran wildly along the left side.

After Giggs broke through Sagnol, the front was wide open.

Manchester United had York and Cole in front, David Beckham on the right, Paul Scholes and Keane in the middle.

It was Duff who defended Giggs, but Giggs didn't have a chance at all. Got to the bottom line and made a cross.

“…… Ryan Giggs, cross...... Keane on the back cut, header! ”

It wasn't Scholes who got in at the back, it was Keane who came running all the way from near his own penalty area. In the face of Giggs's cross, he made a fierce leap to the top and scored the first goal of the game.

The cheers of the fans at Old Trafford shook the whole stadium.

However, at this time, George was no longer behind the air traffic control, because Sagnol, who had just slid and shoveled, had been lying on the ground and had not gotten up.

"It seems that Sagnol is injured and has not been able to get up." Television broadcasts have finally discovered Sagnol as well. "Looking at the replay, it should have been Sagnol who pulled his muscles in the tackle. This injury should be more serious than a hard injury, and I don't know what it will look like. ”

Blackburn's team doctor checked Sagnol's injury before making a substitution gesture to George.

George frowned. Sagnol, this season has been so strong. With four assists already on his sleeve, Sagnol's precise cross and Klose were a match made in heaven. I don't know what the injury is.

Gala didn't warm up, so she changed her clothes and came off the bench.

The passing year is unfavorable, it's really a bit back. Sagnol's captain's armband was brought to Duff's hand. Mainly because Duff is a player from Blackburn's Academy and can get the support of the fans.

"How's it going?" George asked the team doctor with a frown.

The team doctor shook his head. The expression is ugly. "It's impossible to know the specifics, but it's not very good. If the worst happens, the season will be reimbursed. Even if it's better, you have to take a break for two or three months. ”

"Two or three months", "season reimbursement", such words reached George's ears, making George's heart tremble.

More than a game, Sagnol's surname for George is obvious.

After Sagnol's departure, Manchester United's attack intensified. In the rain, although George also tried hard, he still lost 2-0 away from home.

Twenty-two minutes into the second half, Cole headed in David Beckham's cross for the second goal of the game.

But George is more concerned about Sagnol's injury than this game. I was very depressed, if Sagnor's injury was really serious, what should I do then? Who can replace Sagnol in Blackburn Rovers now?

Standing in the rain, George's face was cloudy.
