Blackburn Rovers have been strong in the Premier League.

But by the time it came to the Champions League group stage, George had almost given up. Anyway, it's already the first to qualify, why do you care so much? It's not better to train more young players.

So this season, he was full of hope to return to Blackburn, but he could only make some garbage time to play, and Parker, who was extremely depressed, also got the opportunity to play.

And, of course, Henning, who will soon retire. Berg, Davao. Suke is all on the field. Even Blanco, who is already George's right-hand man, got a chance to play. Blanco is happy, even though he is now an important coach on George's coaching staff.

But Blanco is not fully decommissioned. So far, I have played nearly ten games.

It's fun to be able to play in such an important Champions League game this time.

Looking at the lineup sent by Blackburn, the other party was not angry at all. If it was usual, it would definitely feel that George was looking down on them. But now no one thinks so. Valencia and Roma, and even wished George had sent youth players.

Because don't look at the lineup that comes out now, there are few old and young, but it still can't be completely ignored.

But there is no one who is most angry than Ajax.

Now there is hope for Valencia, Roma and Ajax. Ajax have four points, Valencia has four points and Roma have three points.

Ajax have already played two games against Blackburn, both of which were lost to Blackburn. But Roma and Valencia will both play Blackburn. In this way, Ajax has suffered a lot.

Sure enough, when Blackburn played Roma at home, they were beaten 1-0 by Roma.

George's players are really underwhelming. Roma are very strong, and now they are fighting again, so from the beginning of the game, they stormed Blackburn. In the end, thanks to a clever pass from Totti, Cassano scored the only goal.

With this the fifth match of the group stage, Roma has six points, surpassing the other two opponents. Because Ajax and Valencia are drawn, both Ajax and Valencia have five points.

And on March 20, the final game of the Champions League group stage began.

Blackburn Rovers take on Valencia away. Both Ajax and AS Roma expressed their belief before the game that Blackburn would be sportsmanlike. It's as if George is one of the few moral role models in football.

George knew it was the two clubs that were putting pressure on Blackburn.

The two of them, of course, didn't want Blackburn to release water. Because Valencia already have five points, if they win easily against Blackburn, it will be eight. This is very bad news for Roma and Ajax.

But George didn't care about them.

They're a piece of? I'm still going to listen to them, it's a joke. In the current situation, they are entirely to blame. It is the most ridiculous thing to pin your hopes on others because you don't have the strength yourself.

So George still went his own way and sent a lot of substitutes. Even Van der Sar was resting off the pitch.

Sometimes, though, it's just so much fun.

George sent a lot of substitutions, and they naturally played dense defense. In order to perform in front of George, they actually spared no physical strength at all. The young players are even more galloping all over the field. Essien showed his inhuman physical strength at home, facing Aimar and Baraja.

Aimar, crash into you. Balaha, I shovel! I shovel! I'll shovel shovel!

Essien, the beast waist that Van der Vaart feared, at this time gave Aimar and Barahara a taste of what metamorphosis is. Valencia is in a hurry now, because Valencia is only five points. Ajax and Roma are still tied to one, so if it ends, Roma will appear with seven points.

So Valencia is completely insane.

Bombarded Blackburn indiscriminately. Defense, you're going to be out, what are you going to do defending?

At this time, Defoe, who had been cruising in front, received the ball from the encirclement, and rode through the pass and smashed Huanglong. In the end, he went straight past Canizares and scored the empty goal.

1-0, Blackburn actually scored a goal against Valencia with a counterattack when he was passive all over the field. Sometimes it's like that, you don't have a lot of possession and a lot of shots to win.

The Valencia players were completely stunned. Because Valencia can only accept the fate of elimination in the group stage.

Because no matter what the score is at the other venue, Valencia will be eliminated.

So for the rest of the time, Valencia was crazy like an attack. But on the contrary, the offense has no rules, and in the end it can only accept the fate of being eliminated.

The match between Blackburn Rovers and Valencia made the other venue quite happy.

Ajax attacked Roma like crazy, because any team win in this game can qualify for this group stage.

Ajax's young talent, who ended up playing at home, was a step ahead. Or the young man was passionate, and Van der Vaart made an almost juggling back-heel pass to Van der Meyde. Van der Meyde faced a completely empty goal and only a slight push turned the score into 2-1.

Van der Vaart is truly a genius.

In the encirclement of four people, he passed the ball very calmly.

It created an opportunity for Van der Meyde to open the net. It also upset the balance with a 2-1 win over Roma.

It leapfrogged Roma and Valencia to become the second team to appear.

Although it was a group stage qualifier, there was not much media attention.

If it were another club, it was possible, but Blackburn had already secured a place in the qualifying spot early on. As a result, not many people are paying attention to Blackburn's appearance right now.

This time around, Premier League clubs can only underperform in the Champions League.

Four teams came to the Champions League, although all reached the group stage of the second round of the Champions League. However, only two of these four teams managed to break through. Manchester United and Blackburn.

Because of the second round of the Champions League group stage, it is very difficult for the four groups to break through.

Group A is Liverpool, Inter Milan, Bayer Leverkusen, Barcelona, which is also a group of death. In the end, Liverpool failed to break through this group. It was Inter Milan and Barcelona who broke through.

Group B is Blackburn's group. Although it was also a group of death, Blackburn had five wins and one loss, and easily emerged from the group.

Group C is Arsenal's group. Lokomotiv Moscow, AC Milan, Real Madrid, plus Arsenal. Although in the last two games Arsenal did their best. But Arsenal still couldn't break through.

Real Madrid and AC Milan successfully broke through from this group.

Group D is the group in which Manchester United are located. This group is not simple either. It's Basel, Deportivo La Coruna, Manchester United, Juventus. Thankfully, Manchester United were in good shape and were able to make it through this group with a hard time. Joining Manchester United in breaking through was Juventus.

With such a strong group, it can be said that none of the teams that can qualify from the second round of the group stage will be underdogs.

When the list of the top eight is out, everyone will be able to know the gold content of the top eight. Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan, Manchester United, Blackburn, Ajax.

………… Qualifying for the group stage and reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League has no feeling for George. Isn't it normal for Blackburn to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League?

So now George's attention is back in the league.

In the 31st round of the English Premier League, Blackburn challenged Tottenham Hotspur away.

Tottenham boss Joe. Lewis was indeed a rich man. Although it will not be as bold as Abu, hundreds of millions of pounds of money will be thrown out in one summer. But it's not a stingy guy, and the transfer fee of two or three million pounds a season is still not spared.

After taking charge of Tottenham, Joe. Lewis didn't make many big moves.

But also bought some heavyweights. Including Daniel. Morrison, Bellamy, Robbie. Keane's powerful generals were still picked up by Tottenham. It's a pity that the head coach of the England national team at that time, Hoddle, was already behind.

The results that led Tottenham to get worse and worse.

was even bombarded by quite a few of his own players.

Tottenham's more unfortunate thing is that after Campbell left, the central defender Ledley who carried the banner of Tottenham. Kim is a glass man. Just performed so well that he was even drafted by the England national team. But I haven't gone to play the national team yet, so I lay in bed first.

There was no problem with some minor injuries, but Ridley. Kim was going to lie down for eight months. This left Tottenham with no choice but to cry.

In this way, Tottenham's backline has once again become transparent.

The same goes for this game. Against World Cup top scorer Klose, Tottenham's backline was completely unable to defend.

Although Klose scored steadily, he lacked a hat-trick and a big four. Even with a brace, Klose is actually not a lot. Or maybe Klose is not the kind of player who scores a lot of goals in one game. But the goals were evenly distributed. This one is different from Henry and Vanney.

Thierry Henry and Ruud van Nistelrooy scored a lot of goals, not only because the goals were evenly distributed. What's more, not only did they score a lot of goals, but they were also able to complete surprise things like hat-tricks and senior joys from time to time. Klose does not fall into this category of strikers.

However, in this game against a weak Tottenham defence, Klose completed a hat-trick in the first half. At White Hart Lane, they lead Tottenham 3-0. George almost looked up to the sky and laughed. As long as this game is won, then there are only seven rounds left in the league.

Blackburn are now six points ahead of Manchester United, and that's a two-game difference.

Blackburn Rovers currently have not only the goal difference advantage, but also one win and one draw in direct conversations. In addition, among the remaining opponents of Blackburn, there is only one strong opponent like Newcastle.

And Manchester United also has strong opponents such as Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle.

The schedule is also completely dominated by Blackburn.
