Chapter 26 Ferguson

Two days after Christmas, the Second Division has reignited the flames of war.It may be that the Christmas carnival is too much, and many players are weak. In the fifth round of No.20, Burnley drew [-]-[-] with Peterborough United in the away game.

Swindon, ranked second in the Second Division, performed well, sweeping Chesterfield, one of the promotion opponents, [-]-[-].Narrowed the gap with Burnley.

However, in the sixth round of No.20, Burnley showed great prowess and easily defeated Chesterfield 4-[-] at home.Chesterfield, which was ranked No.[-] before Christmas, fell five places to ninth after a two-game losing streak.In this game, Poboski once again completed a hat-trick.This is already Poboski's second hat-trick in the second division.

No.20 defeated Stockport 20-[-] away in the seventh round. In the eighth round of No.[-], the away game swept Hull City [-]-[-]. Both Poborski and Huckabee scored hat-tricks.It is also Burnley's game with the most goals this season. Poborski completed a feat in this game, scoring a goal and assisting a hat-trick.Now Poborski is getting more and more adapted to the English Second Division, and his cooperation with the Burnley team is becoming more and more tacit.

With his hat-trick in this game, Poboski has already scored [-] goals and [-] assists in the league.Ranked first in both the goals list and the assists list.

…………

The excellent record during this period has immersed the entire city of Burnley in joy.Now Burnley's home game, the average attendance has exceeded 5000 people.Especially in the last few games, there will be at least 8000 fans in each game.In the eyes of giants such as Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal, such a number of people is a child's play. Even in an insignificant League Cup, the attendance will reach 3 to [-].

But if you put it in Burnley, a city with a population of only 8, you can know how terrifying the number of people is.

"Hi, hello. I'm George." That day George was considering a summer transfer when a call came to George's cell phone.Mobile phones at this time are obviously not as advanced as in the 21st century, but they are still more convenient than landline phones.Especially a coach like George needs to wear one.

"Coach Levy, hello. I'm Ferguson." The voice with a very strong Scottish accent came into George's ears.

George was taken aback, Ferguson?As long as you are in the football field, you don't need to know who the Secretary-General of the United Nations is, but you must not know who Ferguson is?Not to mention George, a man from later generations, Ferguson's achievements will be a legend in later generations.

George almost blurted out, "Sir Ferguson".But thinking that Ferguson won the jazz title by virtue of the Triple Crown, he immediately changed his mind. "Coach Ferguson, hello. It's a great honor to receive your call."

"Coach Levy, you should be able to think of it. I'm for Bobowski." Ferguson laughed a few times on the phone, and then spoke with that thick Scottish accent.Fortunately, it was some simple dialogues, otherwise it might not be understandable for a while.

"Poborski? I don't understand what you mean, and now the winter transfer is about to end in two days. Manchester United doesn't want to introduce Poborski at this time, does it?" The transfer period of the Premier League is coming soon it's over.Why did Manchester United take action now.

"Yes, I just want to introduce him in the winter. But we can loan you half a season and take it back next year." Ferguson actually discovered Poborski after watching the Burnley game in January.In particular, Poborski had two hat-tricks in January, which made Ferguson very tempted.

"I don't know how much transfer fee Manchester United can pay?" George was very angry, because Ferguson didn't put Burnley in his eyes at all.

"One million pounds." Ferguson said very generously.Of course, this is what Ferguson thought. For a player in the English Second Division, it is simply ridiculously high to pay 100 million pounds.

But when George heard this number, he wished he could go to Manchester and kick Ferguson to death on the other end of the phone.In half a year, after the European Cup, Poborski's worth will exceed 300 million pounds.You only pay 100 million now, and you still act like you are very generous.

"I'm sorry, Coach Ferguson. I don't want to affect the good situation of Burnley because of the player transfer problem." George declined Ferguson, but he didn't say anything. "We can talk about this issue at the end of the season. For the sake of your phone call, I can guarantee that at the end of the season, under the same conditions, I will first consider Manchester United."

George knew that at the end of the season, it would be difficult for him to keep Poborski.After the European Cup, Poboski will become the object of competition for the European giants, and it is impossible for Poboski to stay in an English second-tier league.

Ferguson on the other end of the phone laughed. "George, you are waiting for the European Cup. I hope that Poborski will perform well in the European Cup and sell it for a good price." Ferguson was indeed an old fox, and he guessed George's thoughts at once.

"Yes, I am very optimistic about the prospects of the Czech Republic in the European Cup." George did not hide his thoughts.

"Okay, George, then we have a verbal agreement."

Putting down the phone, Ferguson smiled and said to Brian behind him, "This young man is interesting."

On the other side of the phone, George felt powerless. Burnley didn't even have the power to parry against a predator like Ferguson.

…………

George didn't have much time to think about Ferguson. When Poborski was introduced, George probably didn't have the idea of ​​making a small profit by taking advantage of the European Cup.It can be used for one year, and it can be sold at a high price after one year.Therefore, George is mentally prepared for Poboski's departure.

Burnley continued to compete in the English Second Division. No.20 returned to the home court in the ninth round, beating Notts County 30-[-]. In the No.[-] round, they defeated Walshal [-]-[-] away.

In the No.30 round, Burnley was tied [-]-[-] by Swansea at home.It stopped the five-game winning streak in the league, but George was very happy.Because George rested most of the main players in this game, because of the previous game, many main players were very tired.

However, relying on the rapid progress during this period, Burnley scored 31 points in 75 rounds, ranking first in the list.The gap between Swindon and Burnley has widened to eleven points.

After Christmas, Burnley were unstoppable in the Second Division.Everyone knows that no one can stop Burnley from upgrading this year.
