Chapter 475: Gloating over Others' Misfortune

Blackburn once again reached the Champions League final.

The media in Blackburn and Lancashire all sang praises for Blackburn. Some media even said that Blackburn had created a dynasty in the past five years.

Because since the 1999-00 season, Blackburn has won a heavyweight championship every season.

In the 1999-00 season, it won the League Cup, in the 2000-01 season, it won the Premier League, in the 2001-02 season, it won the Champions League and the Premier League, and in the 2002-03 season, it won the Premier League, and also completed the Premier League three consecutive championships.

If it wins another Champions League this season, then Blackburn will have won two Champions League titles and three Premier League titles in five seasons.

In the new century, which European club's performance can compare with Blackburn. Real Madrid? Milan? Juventus? Bayern Munich? They are not as good as Blackburn.

Therefore, the Blackburn media themselves have already shouted that this period is the Blackburn dynasty.

Who is the hottest head coach in European football now?

Definitely not Ferguson, nor Wenger. Not even Ancelotti, and Queiroz is not even on the list.

It's George, George Levy.

George was already a new coach in European football a few years ago. But in terms of fame, he certainly can't be compared with those big-name coaches in Europe. Even if he won the Champions League two years ago, it's the same. After all, those famous coaches in Europe basically use time to accumulate fame.

George's sudden rise is certainly surprising to the European football world.

But in terms of fame, he can't catch up with those old-fashioned coaches. It's because George rose too quickly and had no time to accumulate and consolidate his fame.

But this time, entering the Champions League final again, George's fame is rising.

Of course, many people expect George to win another Champions League. At that time, George will really be on par with all the famous coaches in Europe. Ferguson, Lippi, Capello, Hitzfeld, they have lost the qualifications to look down on George.

Because George's performance is as good as theirs.

Therefore, praise for George is one after another.

But George was not in Blackburn at this time.

George arrived at Highbury Stadium.

The arrangement of the Champions League knockout round is very interesting. Obviously, the first semi-final between Arsenal and Monaco was one day earlier than Blackburn, but the second match of the Champions League knockout round was one day later than Blackburn.

It can be said that Arsenal can rest for two more days than Blackburn.

George came here today to focus on Monaco. Although Blackburn was in the same group with Monaco in the group stage and played two games with Monaco. But after all, half a year has passed, George still needs to carefully observe the status of Monaco.

As for Arsenal?

George absolutely does not believe that Arsenal can eliminate Monaco.

In the first game, 3 to 1, a two-goal advantage, George does not think Arsenal can make up for it.

George still prayed in his heart that Monaco must beat Arsenal. After all, Arsenal is a strong team, and George is really not absolutely sure if they play. But Monaco, it is not that George underestimates them, but their strength is indeed limited.

Although Monaco eliminated Real Madrid, George was not afraid at all.

Real Madrid?

If it was Real Madrid two years ago, it would be the best team in the world. But now Real Madrid is top-heavy and has slowly withdrawn from the ranks of strong teams in the competitive field.

Looking at Real Madrid's pitfall defense, you can imagine that it is the defense of the world's top giants.

The consequences of Real Madrid's "Zidane + Pavon" policy began to appear.

Such Real Madrid is no longer in George's eyes.

George absolutely does not want to face Arsenal now.

Arsenal is definitely very strong this season.

Monaco, Monaco. Deschamps, you must beat Arsenal.

In the final, I don't want to meet Arsenal. Arsenal, you must be eliminated!

George watched this game with this dark mentality.

If Wenger knew that there was someone here cursing his Arsenal, he would definitely fight George.

George almost became a Monaco fan. Monaco was very happy in attacking, but Arsenal was anxious in attacking. Today, they came to observe the two teams, so George did not wear any makeup. He sat there openly and watched the game with Blanco.

Several times, the director's camera was aimed at George.

Watching George frown for a while, and then chatting and laughing with Blanco.

"Alan, look at George. Does he want Arsenal to win or Monaco to win?"

Motson looked at George and he didn't look like he was here to observe the opponent. Instead, he didn't know what to say to Blanco next to him. Both of them laughed heartily. So out of boredom, he asked Alan Hansen next to him.

"John, I'll offend people if I say it."

Alan Hansen smiled and shook his head. "I guess what George hopes now is that the two teams can fight and get several red cards. Then if there are a few injuries, George will probably gloat over it."

"Hahaha."

Motson laughed.

"Yes, George must think so."

If George could hear what they said, he would definitely hug them and shout that you are my confidants.

That's what George thought now.

It would be best if there were three or four red cards and three or four injured.

It may have been George's prayer that God heard. After the game, the smile on George's mouth could not be wiped away. Just as George thought, Monaco drew with Arsenal one to one, and finally eliminated Arsenal with a score of four to two and entered the Champions League final.

Of course, it was impossible for George to laugh non-stop about this matter. What George was most happy about was that in this game, Monaco's Giuly was injured by a tackle from Vieira. Although I don’t know the specific extent of the injury, judging from the situation at the scene, it shouldn’t be a minor injury that can be rested for a day or two.

Monaco itself does not have many outstanding offensive players.

Among them, Giuly is definitely a sharp knife in Monaco. Almost one-third of Monaco's attacks are related to Giuly. Now that Jiuli is injured, George can't think of anything else except laughing.

But George laughed too much. Even Blanco next to him couldn't stand it anymore.

"George, calm down. You're laughing so hard."

George looked at Blanco next to him.

"Aren't you happy?"

Blanco didn't reply. Blanco knew why George was happy. In fact, Blanco was also quite happy in his heart. What does it mean to be rewarded after suffering, that is to say, Blackburn is now.

Just after emerging from the group stage, Blackburn played two giant clubs one after another.

Although they defeated Juventus and Milan, Blackburn was exhausted. Unexpectedly, Blackburn's promotion path was bright after that. First we met Porto, and now we are about to meet Monaco as we enter the final.

And it is very likely that it is Monaco who is left behind.

Blanco understood George's mood now.

Monaco advanced and Blackburn's opponent in the final was Monaco.

The reporters at the scene were not only surrounding Monaco coach Deschamps, but many people also came to interview George. After all, the two opponents in the Champions League final are already here.

"Coach Levy, what do you think of Monaco, our opponent in the Champions League final?"

George smiled. "Monaco?"

"I don't have an opinion. It doesn't matter to me who my opponent is in the final. Because no matter who the opponent is, our goal will not change. I just want the championship. As for who the opponent is, I don't care at all."

Hearing George's arrogant words, the eyes of the reporters present lit up.

Don't look at those reporters who spend all day in newspapers saying that so and so is too arrogant and lacks education. In fact, their reporters’ favorite people are people like this, because there is no such person who can give you news. So they scold them every day, but they can't help but stick to them every day.

Now, I don’t know how much news can be written in this sentence of George.

It’s possible to write about George’s ambitions, and that’s a positive thing. You can also write about how George looks down on Monaco.

Anyway, as long as they find a random sentence, they can write a news article.

"Coach Levi, what do you think about Giuli's injury?"

Monaco reached the Champions League final, knocking out Real Madrid and Arsenal one after another, which is already well known. Everyone has become familiar with Monaco and knows that Giuly is a very important player in Monaco's offensive system.

George grinned.

"Giuly is a very important player for Monaco. I hope he can recover and the injury will not be too serious. I don't want anyone to say in the future that I defeated a defective Monaco. I want to defeat a complete Monaco so that I can win the Champions League It’s more convincing.”

George kept talking as if Blackburn had already won the Champions League.

And even though I feel sorry for Jiuli. But looking at that tone, it sounded like he was gloating over his misfortune.

…………

George's words reached Deschamps' ears.

But Deschamps did not argue with George. Deschamps is busy now, busy figuring out how to deal with Blackburn.

Although Deschamps was very angry about George's arrogance. And Deschamps hates George, but he has to admit that Blackburn is really strong. Judging from the cards, Monaco is not a level worse than Blackburn.

Therefore, although George has repeatedly stimulated Deschamps, Deschamps still focuses most of his attention on team training.

It's a pity that Deschamps can hold on.

But the Monaco players were angry. George has ridiculed Monaco several times. And it was as if the Champions League championship was his own, and he didn't take Monaco seriously at all. How could they endure this?

They took turns to fight back against George.

The first person to criticize George was Monaco star Evra. Evra is not a good-tempered person. His big mouth is unforgiving. "We were able to enter the Champions League final because of our strength. We eliminated Real Madrid and Arsenal in the middle. We are not afraid of anyone, even Blackburn. We will not give up in the Champions League final. A coach, You should focus more on how to coach the team instead of appearing in the media and the public like an entertainment star every day.”
