This is the squad announced by George for the new season, and there are only twenty-four Blackburn Rovers in the new season. It's not that George wants to be streamlined, but because Blackburn Rovers only have two major cup games in England this season. There are no other European tasks, so as long as they are used well, there will be no shortage of personnel.

With nearly £8 million left in his hand, Jack Walker told George with a wave of his hand that the money could be used for a winter transfer. If you don't use it this season, you can carry it over to the next season.

So George is not panicked at all, if there is really a problem of tight lineup, he can continue to make up for it in the winter transfer.

However, with the announcement of this list, as well as Blackburn's transfer list, the media has commented again. Of course, the least of them is the Mark Laurenson, who had a holiday with George.

'Isn't it that I'm not seeing a list of Premier League clubs, but a list of players from League One clubs? Blackburn spent more than £20 million on summer transfers, all of which were bought. ”

"Coach Levy didn't see France win the World Cup, so he felt that as long as it was a French player, it was good. Miku? Sagnol? Gallas? Makelele? Who is the other than Pire? I heard that Miku's style of play resembles Zidane, does George really think that Miku is Zidane? ”

"Coach Levy is a real surprise and he sees the Premier League as something. Anderson Deco, a player who plays in Portugal's second division. Cudicini and Zauri are both players in Italy's second division. Hargreaves is a Bayern Munich youth team player. Hehehe, what kind of people are these! ”

"If you look at the forward line, Klose is George's favourite. But objectively speaking, is Klose a striker? Burnley, who have the most firepower in League One, have played more than 50 times in a season and scored less than double figures. Gudjohnsen, the outcast of PSV Eindhoven, came for free. ”

"I don't know if George bought these players this season to play in League One next year, or if he ......"

Mark Laurenson was very happy with that. Because he was able to laugh at George nakedly, and George didn't talk back. Mark Laurenson has never tried such a fun thing until now. What Mark Laurence is looking forward to now is an early start to the new Premier League season and a good laugh at George, a Premier League rookie.

Of course, Mark Lawrenson is not the only one who is so ridiculed by George now, and almost all the media in England are baffled by George's transfer. In their opinion, George's transfer this year is the most tangible of Pire and Van Bronckhorst. The rest of the second leagues from other countries, and some of the abandonments, are very unpopular with the media.

You players who can't get along in other leagues, do you think you can play in the Premier League? This is a contempt for the Premier League's nakedness.

The arrogant Britons don't accept these players, these players haven't had much success elsewhere, and some of them are even thrown out. How could they succeed in the Premier League!

…………

On the 24th of July, Blackburn's players began to assemble one after another. Because there is a World Cup this year, many players from strong teams have just finished the World Cup less than half a month ago, and they have to report to the club.

But Blackburn Rovers don't have that kind of problem, although there are some internationals, but not many. Even an international player like Hendry was eliminated early because of the limited strength of the Scottish national team. It has been nearly a month since the national team was disbanded.

Although the French team won the championship, such as Pire, he was a substitute in the national team. I didn't show my face much throughout the World Cup, and there was no problem with my physical strength.

George arrived at the club even earlier. Although most of the players were brought in by George, George was not very familiar with them. George needed to meet them and get to know each other.

"George, we're still too short on time. The Premier League is also very close. Carl Pat sighed at George as he looked through the training methods.

George knew, of course, that time was running out of crunch. The other Premier League teams have no problem, just like Manchester United, whose midfield has been working together for an unknown number of years. But Blackburn's midfield is different, and after George's big change, they need to run in again. It will take time, but there is not much time left for George.

"Wherever you can, you can do it."

As George and Carl spoke, one by one, the Blackburn players arrived at the training ground. Today was the first gathering, and George also brought some staff. These people are there to translate for players who don't speak English.

Seeing that all the players were out, George clapped his hands and quieted the players.

"You all know who I am, but I guess I'd introduce myself first. My name is George Levy, and I'm your coach. You can call me boss, or you can call me head. It doesn't matter. ”

'We met for the first time and I was also Blackburn's new manager. This includes the old guys at the club and the players I bought this summer. But I don't have any direct knowledge of you right now, and my knowledge of you is limited to video. Therefore, I will observe in the next training and choose the main lineup from it. ”

"I only recognize your strength and condition."

George has a main lineup in mind, but he can't talk to them directly. This kind of high-sounding scene still has to be said.

"Gather today, everyone meet, get to know each other. I will continue to announce the team's discipline in the future. Of course, I'll start by saying that I don't care where you're from, this is England. So you have to learn English, even if you don't learn it well. But at least you have to understand the tactics I have laid out, that's the bare minimum requirement. ”

Speaking of Blackburn Rovers now, there are really not many local players in England. Even in George's plan, they were just substitutes. Now in Blackburn, the local power in England has shrunk a lot.

Although George knew several languages, George had to unify one language across the team. That's English, and they have to understand it wherever they come from.

Of the players George has brought in, Miku has the most language problem. But Miku is the core of George's most favored midfield, so even if he forces George, he has to force Miku to learn English. Even if you can't talk, at least you have to understand the mission that George assigned to him.

Sure enough, as soon as George's words fell, Miku frowned. But Miku is ambitious now, unlike when it came to Bremen. At that time, Miku was almost thirty years old, and he didn't care whether he learned German or not.

But now Miku is only twenty-five years old, and when he seriously wants to do something big. In particular, the English media ridiculed "Miku is not Zidane", which made Miku even more upset.

So although I didn't like George's request to learn English, I decided to learn English.

George didn't say much, and after a brief finish, he called Hendry out for everyone to know. Hendry, persuaded by George, eventually agreed to stay. This is already George's happiest thing.
