Chapter 32 I am from Burnley
Former Premier League champion's new boss: 28? "On the second day after George and Jack Walker met, the Sun newspaper came out with a huge headline.

Below are very clear photos of George and Jack Walker talking and laughing at the dinner table, and photos of shaking hands with John Williams.

"Jack Walker meets young coach George Levy."

"Many people may not be very familiar with George Levy. This is a young coach who is only 28 years old. He only became the head coach of the Burnley team in the League Two last year. This young coach is coaching In the first season, he won the League Two championship with an excellent record."

"What is even more surprising is that Burnley under George Levy changed seven main players. They were all new players introduced by George himself last summer. In order to introduce these new players, George Levy spent a total of about 100 million pounds. .Then George Levy purged many club veterans, but these newcomers performed well in Burnley and made great contributions to Burnley's promotion."

"These are not very intuitive, but there is one statistic that is very intuitive. George Levy spent £40 on the introduction of Czech international Karel Poborski last summer. But only a year later, George Sold Poborski to Manchester United for £400m. Darren Huckabee, also bought for £12, moved to Coventry just a year later for £120m .”

"As far as we know, Jack Walker is interested in George Levy because last season George led Burnley in the Carabao Cup and beat Blackburn away. Jack Walker was there at the time. Interested. And with George Levy taking Burnley back to League One, Jack Walker is quite happy with George Levy."

"Dalglish has already submitted his resignation letter. Dalglish was only a temporary head coach. So now Blackburn is looking for a new coach."

"Our reporter took this picture while following Jack Walker. From the photo, we can see that George and Jack Walker were talking and laughing happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious. We have reason to believe that George Levy, a young coach, It is very likely that this season will be the new manager of Blackburn."

"If this happens, then Blackburn and Burnley will add another grievance to the century-old grievances."

…………

George never thought that he and Jack Walker were just having a meal, and they were actually photographed by the reporter of the Sun newspaper.The photos of myself, Williams, and Jack Walker are very clear, if anyone saw it, they would misunderstand it.

This matter has little impact on other Premier League teams, or they just simply pay attention.But this is the case, George Levy entered the eyes of England fans for the first time. The 28-year-old head coach is indeed too young.

Such a young coach suddenly appeared in English football, and he couldn't help but attract attention.With this incident, George Levy has become a well-known young coach in English football.

But it's a different story for Blackburn and Burnley.

Blackburn fans have a very bad impression of George, especially the last time he led Burnley to Ewood Park, and the scene of provoking Blackburn fans made them deeply in their hearts.And George is just a 28-year-old young coach who only coached a second division team before, which made Blackburn fans look down on George.So not long after the Sun reported, many Blackburn fans went to the club to inquire.The Blackburn club's calls have never stopped for a long time.

Of course, Blackburn fans hate George at most, and some fans think that if they can poach Burnley's coach, it will be the biggest blow to Burnley.Therefore, some Blackburn fans are optimistic, and some people think that Jack Walker's move is too beautiful.

Compared with the Blackburn fans, the Burnley fans are already boiling.Some cursed Blackburn and Jack Walker, some called George a traitor, and some people hoped that the club would keep George. Anyway, it was all kinds of things.

George's phone has not stopped since the morning.

"George, is it..." Karl Pat even came to George's residence and asked very puzzled.

George patted his best partner on the shoulder and said with a smile. "Carl, even you don't believe me. To be honest, when Jack Walker approached me, I was really tempted. It was the Premier League champions team, and the players in it were top-notch. But Burnley has a lot of things, It’s really inescapable.”

"George, you really refused." Carl Pat opened his eyes wide, shook his head slightly and sighed. "Actually, George, you should know that I came to Burnley to make a living. Compared with Burnley, I hope to see you succeed. Blackburn is a platform, far bigger than Burnley. Blackburn has more money than us, even a better fan base. And it's a Premier League team."

Karl Pat and George worked together in the youth team for five years, and after George became the head coach, Karl Pat became the most powerful person in George's coaching team.The friendship between the two is far beyond what others can imagine.

"Thank you, Carl." George patted Carl Pater on the shoulder. "But our family has supported Burnley for a hundred years, and my dream is to lead Burnley to create an era. You will definitely help me?"

Karl Pat nodded.The two talked and laughed, and came to the training ground, but as soon as they arrived at the gate of the club, they were surrounded by a group of fans and reporters.

"Coach Levy, is it true that Blackburn invited you to be the head coach?"

"Coach Levy, are you going to be the manager of Blackburn?"

"Coach Levy, is the Sun's report true?"

In an instant, a lot of microphones were stretched out in front of George, and they asked George in a hurry.On the contrary, many fans nearby were not as impulsive as the reporters. If they rushed over, it would be a big problem.Because there are thousands of fans gathered in front of the club.

George smiled and pressed his hands to calm down the reporters. "Everyone, don't worry. I will explain the questions you want to hear one by one. But I hope everyone will not be so crowded."

Hearing George's words, the reporters who had been pushing forward slightly loosened up, but the reporters standing in the front row stood firmly in their positions.

"First of all, I did receive an invitation from Blackburn. But I was just a shortlist among the new coaches of Blackburn, and I myself rejected the invitation. Because I am from Burnley, I want to lead Burnley The team created an era belonging to Burnley." George recounted the matter very calmly.

Although there was nothing else to say, the Burnley fans applauded thunderously.Seeing this group of lovely fans, George was suddenly moved.In front of dozens of reporters and thousands of fans present, he couldn't help shouting a sentence.

"I'm from Burnley, I belong to Burnley in my life. Burnley is my home."

George's words were like a declaration, and all the fans present suddenly burst into shouts. "George! George! George!"

"A Burnley man for a day, a Burnley man for life." George was also infected by the fans, raising his fist and shouting.
