"Evan, see how that young midfielder is doing?" George traveled around Germany, the Czech Republic, and even the Netherlands, and returned to England after more than ten days. At this time, the English second division is already the last game, and as long as this round is over, George will officially become the manager of the Burnley team.

But in the final game, George didn't pay attention to the Burnley team. Because only when the name is right, George will go to the veterans of the team and communicate with them. George is still aiming for players to bring in next season, so he dragged Evan Sawyer to Gresti Road to watch an English second division game. It was a game between Crewe and Cardiff, and it was a close match, with George pointing to Evan in the young midfielders of the Crewe team.

"Typical England midfielder, average technique, but his feet. Good shooting, good passing. You should also be able to play the main team in the first division, how George, you have a fancy for him. But now the Crewe team has a chance to be promoted, and now the Crewe team is in the top three and can participate in the play-offs. Evan looked at it for a moment and then spoke his mind.

George turned his head to look at Evan, the kid seemed to have a way of judging the players. Just watched one game to be able to say so much. "Evan, that's what I fancy about him. His name is Danny Murphy, and he's only 18 years old. I'm more optimistic about him, as long as the Crewe team fails to upgrade, he will start immediately. ”

In the end, it was a 0-0 draw between Crewe and Cardiff, but George was not impatient. There's never been a better opportunity to acquire Murphy, and you can't miss it. "Evan, I'll give you the first mission. Get in touch with Danny Murphy's agent, and if Crewe promote our Burnleys, they'll be out automatically. Once the Crewe team fails to be promoted, follow up immediately. Burnley are also favourites for promotion from the second division this season. ”

Although historically, Danny Murphy, known as the "nemesis of Manchester United", was only bought by Liverpool after his outstanding performances at the World Youth Championships. But who knows what will happen now, so it wouldn't hurt for Burnley to reach out to some Murphy earlier. As for contacting players privately, although FIFA does not allow it, it is the same step for any club to poach people. Contact the players first, then the clubs.

"Brother George, where have you been? Doesn't answer my phone either. Miranda took advantage of the break to help her father. Seeing George come in, Miranda pouted and was very angry.

George shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I've been abroad for the past few days, and you know how expensive international calls are." I'm not yet ready to make international calls. "George has been coaching at Burnley all these years, and his salary is not high. In addition, George often pays for his own money to find out about the clubs at all levels. So George really didn't have a lot of money on hand.

"Cut, you will make excuses. I don't believe it, you just don't want to talk to me on the phone. Miranda apparently agreed with George's explanation, so she just muttered under her breath. George looked at Miranda and thought it was cute, so he gently tapped Miranda on the forehead.

"Little York, when I make a lot of money, I'll ask you to travel around the world. Now you find me a quiet place, I'm going to meet an important guest. Although Miranda muttered, she obediently took George to the small box in the back. Little York, if you see Mitchell King, bring him here. ”

Mitchell King, the captain of the Burnley team, is 32 years old. A Burnley native of Burnley, he has been playing for Burnley since he was 16 years old. When Mitchell King first came out as a first-team player, Burnley FC was already playing in the lower leagues. After Mitchell King became the main player of the team, he played well and was favored by teams in the top flight, but he stayed at the club. It's more than ten years in a flash. Burnley are in the second and fourth divisions, and Mitchell King has seen Burnley's decline throughout.

Mitchell King has been captain since he was 21 years old, and it has been 11 years now. has a huge influence in the team, and many veteran players are also the only ones who lead Mitchell King. Even this season's manager, Jimmy Mulan, who has been in charge of Burnley for four years, will not offend Mitchell King.

George had just become the team's head coach, and the first thing he had to do was reassure people. After all, George is going to have major surgery on the team, and many of Burnley's former players will have to be purged. So George needs Mitchell King's support very much, and another point is that Mitchell King's own strength is extraordinary. Mitchell King is the main centre-back in George's envisioned team, and Burnley's side have defended very well in the First Division this season.

"Hello George." George and Mitchell have known each other for five years, and the age difference between the two is not very big. So the two of them have always spoken very naturally.

"Hello Mitchell." George smiled and stood up and held out his hand. "You should know why I'm looking for you today."

Mitchell King is a tall man with a head of one meter and is a black man. Unlike purebred blacks in Africa, most blacks in England have white ancestry. As is the case with Mitchell King, who has a certain brown skin.

"I've heard that George, you're going to be the head coach of the team at the start of next season. First of all, congratulations. Mitchell King cracked his mouth and smiled, and congratulated George very politely. However, Mitchell King was still a little surprised by this result, and in Mitchell King's opinion, Burnley's most qualified manager should be Thompson. It shouldn't be George Levy, who is so young in front of him.

George knew what Mitchell King was thinking at a glance, so he said, "Mitchell, I know you don't trust me very much. After all, I'm only 27 years old, and I don't have any experience in reading and coaching. I don't want you to believe me, you're an old man of the club and I'm sure you have a lot of affection for the club. "George's status at the club has always been completely unequal to that of Mitchell King at the club, and Mitchell is understandably underestimating George. George didn't expect to say a word or two, and if he exuded the spirit of the king, Mitchell would be a little brother to George.

"I was a first-time coach but I signed a two-year contract with the club. And Mr. Chairman has promised me that he will not interfere in anything with the team. So I'm going to change the team the way I want it and I hope you can support me, Mitchell. Now that we're in the same boat, if we can't work together, the club will only go down and down. You should know that our family has been Burnley fans since my grandfather's generation, and my desire as a coach is to be able to bring Burnley back to that damn Premier League. George just analyzed the current situation very rationally, hoping that Mitchell could support himself.

When Mitchell King heard George's words, he fell into deep thought. After knowing George for five years, Mitchell knows that George looks amiable on the outside, but he is definitely very strong in his bones. Once he really fell out with George, George would definitely abolish himself. When the time comes, it will be a lose-lose situation. As a result, George's coaching ability will be questioned, while Burnley will fall into a situation from which they will not recover.

"George, if you were a manager, what would you do with the current players?" Mitchell finally opened his mouth with difficulty.

George didn't hesitate and said his thoughts directly: "Our team's attack is very problematic, so most of the midfield has to flow into the market, and only a few people will be left as substitutes. I'll keep Ian Coyd as a midfielder, I'm most happy with the defence, and Miller and Grant are the main players in my plan. As for the rest of the rest, depending on the situation, I will either stay on the bench or go into the transfer market. ”

"Such a big change?" Mitchell King frowned, not expecting George to change the lineup so much. Although Burnley was beaten in the First Division this season, after all, it was also the main team promoted to the First Division the year before.

George nodded and said, "My goal is not just to be promoted in the second division, I also have to think about the situation after we get to the first division. I don't want our club to be promoted to the First Division and then relegated again like this season. The lift should not be what we should do as a club, the players in our club are too old. I'm thinking about the future of the club. ”

"George, I can only choose to believe you. Don't worry, as long as you're the head coach of the team, I'll work with you. But if you don't lead the team well, I will definitely recommend that the board fire you. Mitchell King finally nodded vigorously.

George was happy to know that Mitchell was a very committed person. "Mitchell, we had a great time working together."

"George, no. Boss, we're happy to work together. ”
