Chapter 200 The Dust Settles

"The game is over. Leeds United beat Arsenal [-]-[-] in another venue. But that game is useless. Because Blackburn beat Manchester United at home, the biggest suspense of the season is over."

"With Blackburn's two-to-one victory over Manchester United, Manchester United completely lost the chance to win the championship. Blackburn won the UEFA Cup."

"Arsenal has won the league title for two consecutive years. Wenger's Arsenal defended the league title. The Premier League finally has a team that can truly compete with Manchester United."

"Look at the fans cheering George's name. When George came to Blackburn from Burnley, he was greeted with boos. But George completely conquered the fans at Ewood Park in one season."

"However, George is qualified to accept their cheers. George brought Blackburn, who could only barely relegation, to the UEFA Cup. Blackburn has improved significantly this season, and Blackburn next season is even more worth looking forward to."

Looking at the Blackburn players cheering the victory there, Martin Taylor introduced the result of the game with a smile.

Indeed, although it is only a place for the UEFA Cup, Blackburn's coaches, players, and fans are all celebrated as champions.It is really because of the poor performance of Blackburn in the past few seasons.

Blackburn is rising fast and falling fast.Under Dalglish's back then, Blackburn became a strong Premier League team from a second-tier league team.In the end, winning the Premier League title allowed Blackburn fans to enjoy the best time.

After winning the championship, all Blackburn fans are fantasizing that Blackburn will achieve better results.It will create another glorious history for Blackburn.But I didn't expect that after winning the championship, Blackburn's performance plummeted.For three consecutive seasons, various coaches are like watching flowers on horseback, but the results are the same, and they can only struggle on the relegation line.

It was not until George, who was the least popular among Blackburn fans, entered Blackburn that Blackburn could have the opportunity to participate in European competitions.

How can such a result of George not make Blackburn fans like it.

…………

"Blackburn has overtaken the score." Pat Rice came to Wenger's side to tell the result of the score at another venue.

"Two to one?" Wenger was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.This game was played by Leeds United, and the score fell behind, which made Wenger very anxious.Although even if this game is lost, as long as they win the last game, they can still win the championship.But no one can guarantee victory in the final round, and it would be better to determine the champion in this round.

So stay on the sidelines.Now that Blackburn is two to one, the hanging heart is finally relieved.

"George is a good young man." Wenger immediately praised George.

Because Arsenal's Premier League title is secure.

As for those Arsenal fans who traveled far away, the whole game was frustrating.But as Blackburn overtook the score, Leeds United's home court became their home court instead.The cheers immediately overwhelmed the Leeds United fans.

The Leeds United players on the field also heard the cheers of the Arsenal fans, as well as the frustrated look on the Leeds United bench.

They immediately understood that the score had changed on another field.Moreover, it was a change that was not conducive to oneself, so the tyrannical momentum immediately withered.

…………

For the four teams of Manchester United, Arsenal, Blackburn, and Leeds United, the last game is already irrelevant.

Arsenal has already won the Premier League championship, and Blackburn has also won the desired UEFA Cup place.And Manchester United's No.2 position is unshakable, and Leeds United's No.5 has no problem.And there is no difference whether it is No.5 or No.6.

For these four teams, the last game is tasteless.

However, it is still meaningful for Blackburn's last game. After all, at the beginning of the season, Blackburn was beaten [-]-[-] by Arsenal at home.That great disgrace will go down in Blackburn's history.

And a very disgraceful history.The two games with the most goals conceded in a single game in Blackburn's history turned out to be against Arsenal.

Therefore, although the last game has little practical value for Blackburn, Blackburn still came to Highbury Stadium with arrogance.With Arsenal's status in English football, the Highbury Stadium is indeed a bit small.

Highbury Stadium is not only small, but also has less than [-] seats.Not to mention compared with Wembley Stadium and Old Trafford Stadium, even compared with Anfield Stadium and Stamford Bridge Stadium, it is much smaller.

However, as London's No. [-] giant Arsenal, Highbury's popularity is still quite high.

George came to Highbury this time, but he was fully prepared.We must wash away the hatred of being humiliated by Arsenal at home.Therefore, George even declined the club's celebration plan, and after the game against Manchester United, he did not relax the team's training at all.

Not only George, but also Blackburn fans and players have the same mentality.The last game must wash away the shame no matter what.

But Blackburn attaches great importance to it, but Arsenal doesn't care at all.

When he got the Arsenal starting list, George almost cried.Because Arsenal, not to mention ordinary substitute players, even some Wannian bench players have played.There are people who haven't played at all this season, but actually played against Blackburn.

Seeing this list, George was almost dumbfounded.

Mom, on my side, I almost regard this game as an important final.But Arsenal simply regarded this game as tasteless, and sent a few people to play casually.

At this time, their minds are not on this game at all, but on how to celebrate the championship after the game is over.

George originally wanted to defeat the Premier League champion and take revenge, but immediately disappeared.Before coming here, everyone was full of confidence, but when they saw the Arsenal match list, everyone lost their energy.The feeling of a punch hitting cotton.

Everyone played this game in a muddle.Arsenal are full of substitute players, while Blackburn players are the main players.Despite losing energy, Blackburn beat Arsenal [-]-[-] at Highbury.

But there was no trace of joy on George's face, what kind of victory was this.Arsenal can't wait to celebrate their Premier League championship, and they have no time to talk to Blackburn.This kind of victory, George didn't like it at all.

Those Arsenal fans didn't care about the game at all, from the beginning of the game, they were singing.It's all about celebrating the Premier League title.

Even those Arsenal fans applauded after the Blackburn goal.They are thankful for blocking Manchester United in the last round of Blackburn.

"Congratulations, Coach Wenger." After the game, George congratulated Wenger.Then he left Highbury without looking back.

Now the whole of Highbury is immersed in a celebration, and George has no intention of mixing it up.

"Did you see the celebration at Highbury just now?" George asked the players on the bus back in a normal mood.

"I see." Arsenal treated such a game that was so important, and all the players were frustrated.

"This is the celebration of championships. Only champions have such qualifications! Competitive sports, except for championships, other things cannot stand the test of time." George snorted. "So there is only one way for you to get that kind of celebration. Champion!"

"After we won the championship, we can also celebrate like them."

…………

With the end of 38 rounds, the 98-99 Premier League season officially came to an end.

All kinds of suspense in the league have also begun to settle.

Unlike the original history, Manchester United failed to win the Premier League this season.It was Arsenal who won the Premier League championship. This is also Wenger's second Premier League title in the two and a half years since he took charge of Arsenal.

George understands that as he coaches a Premier League team, and it is a team like Blackburn that has won the Premier League championship.George's influence on English football and world football will become greater and greater. Changing the Premier League champions this season is only the first step.In the future, there will definitely be more and more things that are contrary to the original history.

The Premier League has been held for seven seasons so far. Blackburn won one Premier League title, Arsenal won two Premier League titles, and Manchester United won the remaining four Premier League titles.Except for the upstart Blackburn, Manchester United and Arsenal are the richest teams in England's history.

From last season and this season, it can be found that the two most powerful teams that can win the Premier League are Manchester United and Arsenal.Neither Chelsea, Liverpool nor Newcastle have the strength to challenge these two teams.The battle for supremacy between Manchester United and Arsenal in the Premier League has begun.

Of course, there are also teams that have improved a lot this season, including Leeds United and West Ham United.These two teams are the teams that have improved very fast this season. West Ham United has become a Premier League powerhouse under the leadership of Redknapp.

And Leeds United led by O'Reilly set off a youthful storm in the Premier League.

Blackburn is a team that has to be mentioned. As the only team other than Manchester United and Arsenal to have won the Premier League championship, the rise of Blackburn has also attracted a lot of attention.Especially this season, won the UEFA Cup places.

These are the teams that performed better in the Premier League this season.

Every time the league ends, the most indispensable thing is to relegate the team.The relegated teams this season are Nottingham Forest, Charlton Athletic and Southampton.

Of the three teams promoted from League One last season, Nottingham Forest was the only one to be relegated.Middlesbrough has the best mix, ranking No.9 in the Premier League.Under the leadership of Rodell, Burnley's results are not bad.Ranked No.14 in the Premier League.

But no matter what, this season's Premier League is finally over.

George's first Premier League season is also over.

　There was only one update yesterday, and I would like to apologize to everyone here, because the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee did not know whether it was an inspection, a meeting, or a vacation, and chose our county as the meeting place anyway.

　　So we guys are a little busy.Apologize again to everyone.
