Chapter 205 Bombardment
Although Miranda was dissatisfied, George decided to return to England.

Harman and Thorin were all tasks assigned to Richard by George before he left England.Although Blackburn's lineup has stabilized last season, George is still worried.After all, next season Blackburn will not only have to deal with the league, but also the UEFA Cup.

George has won the League Cup and the FA Cup, so although it is not tasteless for the ambitious George, it is just a cup for newcomers.But in the UEFA Cup, George is unwilling to give up easily.How to say in the current European football, the status of the UEFA Cup is still very high.

For the first time in the UEFA Cup, George hopes to achieve a good result.

Therefore, players like Harman and Sorin, George is not willing to give up.But I didn't expect that not only Harman was robbed by Liverpool, but even Sorin was rejected by the FA.

George wants to go back to the club and take care of these things himself.

So without wasting any time, George directly booked a plane ticket and returned to England.

"Sorry, George." Unexpectedly, it was Richard who came to pick up George in person, and faced George with a very apologetic expression.

George shook his head. "It's none of your business. By the way, Richard. What happened to Sorin? I remember that during this year, Sorin seemed to be the main player in Argentina. Did the FA say why Sorin didn't meet the labor requirements?" conditions of proof."

Haman has no choice now, but Thorin was also rejected, which made George very angry.

"The answer given by the Football Association is that the number of times Sorin played for the national team in the previous two years was not enough for the labor certification requirements." Richard reported to George while driving. "The main problem is that Sorin was not able to go to the World Cup with Argentina last year. So the FA thinks that Sorin does not meet the requirements for a work permit."

After listening to Richard's words, George frowned.

Speaking of Sorin's failure to participate in the World Cup last year, it was indeed a bit of a surprise.Because during the previous World Cup qualifiers, Sorin was still a frequent visitor to the national team.Moreover, Sorin led the Argentine youth team to win the World Youth Championship as the captain of the Argentine youth team.

But I didn't expect that in last year's World Cup, it was defeated by the Argentine national team.

Even if you can't participate in the World Cup, it shouldn't be the case.The hateful FA, conservative and backward is synonymous with the FA.

"Is there any room for redemption?"

Although he knew the chances were slim, George still asked Richard.

Richard shook his head wryly.George knows that Blackburn still doesn't have much influence in British football. If it is Manchester United, will there be such a problem.George knew that Ferguson would speak, and such a thing would never happen.

Mom's, so what if it's a foreign country.It also depends on your strength and your influence.If Blackburn were Manchester United or Arsenal, the FA would never embarrass itself on such a small issue.

"Forget it then. What else does the club have to do?"

"One more thing, Liverpool's asking price for Hypia?" Richard gave George another surprise.

"When did it happen?" George frowned again, Liverpool, you bastard, why do you always have trouble with yourself.

George was already very angry when Harman was snatched from the front.Liverpool only bid 800 million pounds, but Blackburn offered 1000 million pounds.But Harman wanted to join Liverpool and ignored Blackburn, and George had no choice.After all, Liverpool is England's top giants.

Not being able to beat Liverpool in the transfer market is because Blackburn's own charm is not enough, and he can't blame Liverpool.But now Liverpool turned out to be the idea of ​​fighting their own players.

"It happened two days ago."

"How much is the price?"

"600 million pounds." Richard had already heard George's anger.But I also understand that Haman has been robbed.Now he's thinking about his own players again, so it's no wonder he isn't angry.

600 million pounds, thanks to Houllier daring to bid.Although Hypia was not expensive when George bought it, it also cost George 200 million pounds.Hyypia has been training in the Premier League for a year, and this season is the pinnacle of Blackburn's defense.

Blackburn is about to play the UEFA Cup. How could George sell Hyypia at this important moment.

"600 million pounds? If Gerrard is added to the 600 million pounds, I might consider it." George sneered and quoted a price at random. "By the way, have you talked to Sammy?"

George is actually not worried about Liverpool. As long as his side is tough, Liverpool will have nothing to do.George was worried about Hypia.If Hyypia, like Harman, believes that Liverpool has more prospects for development and wants to leave Blackburn wholeheartedly, then there is a big problem.

No matter how strong George is, George will not force players who are no longer in the club to stay.

"I've had contact with Sammy and he doesn't care. If the club agrees to Liverpool's offer, he doesn't mind going to Liverpool. But if the club wants to keep him, he is willing to stay at Blackburn."

George laughed out for the first time today, Hypia's meaning was very simple.He is not a die-hard player, he just plays football as a profession.That's easy.

"Are there any problems with other transfers?"

"Everything else is a small transfer, almost done."

George nodded. The key transfers of this season are Harman and Sorin.Now that neither of them could make the trip, George lost his eyes.

…………

"I really don't understand why even a player like Sorin can't get a work permit. It's the joke of the century."

Blackburn's appeal was reinstated by the FA a few days later, and the FA upheld the original decision.Sorin is not eligible for labor certification.This made George, who was already furious, couldn't bear it, and began to bombard the FA in front of reporters.

"Labor certification may have been used in the past. But now it is far behind the development of the Premier League. I think the FA should relax the conditions on labor certification. With the development of world football concentrated in Europe, more and more good players It started pouring into European football."

"This includes not only South America, but also Africa and Asia, where football is developing faster and faster. There are more and more talented players in these places, but many of them do not have the conditions for labor certification. Is it because In this way, all these talented players are pushed to other leagues?"

"If the Premier League wants to develop, it must relax the conditions for them. Let these talented players have the opportunity to enter the Premier League, so that the development of the English League will get better and better."

"However, the FA has used backward labor permits until now to pinch good players and prevent them from entering the English league."

The reporter was very excited when he heard George's words.Now it happens to be the rest period of the league, and in the summer of 99, there were no such important events as the World Cup and the European Cup.In addition, it is only June, and there are not many major transfers.So these football reporters just couldn't find good news materials, and George bombarded the FA just to send them the best news.

"Coach Levy, what kind of changes do you think the FA should need?"

Facing the reporter's question, George answered without hesitation.

"If I ask the FA to abolish the labor certification system, I don't think the FA will agree to it. The labor certification still plays a lot in ensuring the quality of foreign aid in the Premier League, but it is too much. It's just rigid."

It is completely fanciful to say that the labor certificate is abolished.Not to mention the football field, it means that foreigners in any field who want to obtain employment opportunities in England need a labor certificate.

"I wonder if the FA can introduce supplementary clauses for labor certification, which can be lenient for some special talent players." What George remembered at this time was a later regulation, the special talent clause.

Speaking of the special talent clause, it was caused by Kaka's popularity back then.

Kaka was a rising star in Brazil, but Ferguson's Manchester United was also one of the potential buyers at that time.At that time, Ferguson also admired Kaka very much, but because of the problem of labor certification, Kaka was not able to come to England but went to Milan.

But what happened next, no one expected that Kaka, who had been sitting on the bench in the 02 World Cup, would skyrocket after arriving in Milan.His arrival not only forced Rivaldo to leave Milan, but Rui Costa could only slowly leave Milan's main lineup.

Kaka's popularity shocked the English football world.And Ferguson was even more angry, and he bombarded the FA at the time.

Kaka's success brought a huge shock to the FA, which gave birth to the Special Genius Clause.

"Special talent? Coach Levi, what special talent are you referring to..."

"Special talents, as the name suggests, are those talented players. They are still young and cannot meet the labor certification. But their future is limitless. Such players should not be excluded by the Premier League, but should be vigorously introduced. Because the labor certification misses these talented players, it is not only It's a pity for English clubs and it's a pity for the Premier League."

"The FA can give clubs one or two such talent clauses every year."

George has held back for a long time. This damn labor certificate has killed many good players from entering England.

Of course, the impact on English football is not great at present.But as the Premier League continues to develop, this problem will become more and more acute.

George vented all his grievances about not being able to sign Thorin.But it's useless even to vent, Thorin can't be introduced this summer.Holding 2000 million pounds in hand, unable to spend it is the current George.

Harman was unwilling to come, and Sorin could not introduce it.There are tens of millions of pounds left, and a good player should be bought.

Speaking of good players, George couldn't help thinking of a player.However, this player is more difficult, so let's get in touch to see if there is any chance of introduction.So immediately picked up the phone and called Richard.

"Richard, contact Juventus."
