Chapter 305
Fortunately, there is still nearly a month to go before the first game of the League Cup semi-final.There are five more Premier League games in between.

In the No.18 round of the Premier League, Blackburn challenged Ipswich Town away.

Ipswich Town, this is a fantastic team.Just upgraded last season.But this season has been strong.Now that the league is almost halfway through, Ipswich Town is still ranked No.6 in the Premier League.

Not simple, indeed not simple.

Ipswich Town's fast and concise, penetrating short pass style and style of play are pleasing to the eye.It brought a very fresh air to the Premier League for a while, and made many teams restrained by Ipswich Town's style of play.

In other words, many teams in the Premier League failed to find a way to restrain Ipswich Town for a while.

Unfamiliar team, unfamiliar style of play, and because it is a team that has just been promoted, everyone despises him.Thus created a newly promoted miracle.Of course, it is nothing compared to a miracle like Kaiserslautern, but it is already quite remarkable for a newly promoted team to be ranked No.6 in the Premier League.

But this is only against those ordinary teams.

Facing Blackburn, his style of play became their shortcoming instead.What George is most afraid of is the iron-blooded team, such as Bayern's overall style of play.Of course, for some teams that open and close, Blackburn is also a bit difficult to play.

But Ipswich, a club that learns how to play in continental Europe, George is his favorite.

Klose, who has rested for two consecutive games, received a pass from Duff's wing not long after the game started, and scored Klose's No. 14 goal in the Premier League this season.

Of course, the game was not over. At the end of the first half, Riise scored the second goal of the game with a long shot in the frontcourt.It was Riise's second goal for Blackburn this season.But Blackburn didn't stop the killing.

In the second half, Pires, Duff and Hargreaves, who came off the bench, each scored a goal and finally defeated Ipswich Town [-]-[-].

Blackburn's game can be said to have completely brought Ipswich Town back to its original shape.

After finishing the game, George got exciting news.

Arsenal faced their old rival Tottenham Hotspur in the London derby, and the final score was one to one.Wenger's Arsenal showed their exhaustion in this game. If it weren't for Henry's long-distance attack before the end, they would have lost in this derby.

Playing the most difficult Champions League game has made Arsenal exhausted.

In terms of strength, the current Arsenal far surpasses Tottenham.But in the game, Tottenham have always taken the initiative.Even Arsenal's steely Vieira couldn't run this game.

If Arsenal's draw is good news, then the news from Manchester United is to make George dance.

Manchester United was defeated by Houllier's Liverpool at their home court.Liverpool beat Manchester United 18-[-] away.In this way, after the end of the No.[-] Premier League round, Blackburn leads Arsenal by seven points and Manchester United by eight points.

With the end of the [-]th round, Blackburn has already locked in the Premier League half-time championship ahead of schedule.

But George was not careless at all.It is only eight points ahead of Manchester United now. When Manchester United reversed Newcastle, Newcastle was [-] points ahead of Manchester United.In the end, it was reversed by Manchester United.

Therefore, George will continue to increase the score before the restart of the Champions League in the new season.

On December 12, Blackburn played an away game against Coventry.

In fact, this round should not be a match against Coventry.Because Tottenham still didn't play, but for some reason Tottenham's game was pushed back.

As for Coventry, this is the Premier League underdog.Now ranked No.18 in the Premier League.Together with Manchester City and Bradford, they are the favorite teams to be relegated from the Premier League this season.Such a team George will never let go.

It's just that Blackburn has always relied on one breath to play the game.In less than half a year, Blackburn players have already played [-] games.Of course, if those national team players add up to more than [-] games.

Although George attached great importance to this game, he failed to score a goal against Coventry Blackburn in the away game.Of course, with the strength of Coventry, there is no ability to break through Blackburn's goal.In the end George could only accept a zero-to-zero score.

Ipswich Town, who lost to Blackburn in the last game, was bad luck again and again.Because this round met the powerful Manchester United, they were beaten [-]-[-] by Manchester United.Made a two-game losing streak.And Manchester United relied on this game to narrow the gap with Blackburn to six points.

As for Arsenal, the debacle began.

The two death groups in the Champions League have indeed had a great impact.And Ljungberg's absence caught Arsenal by surprise.

In the No.19 round of the Premier League, Liverpool was beaten four to zero by the recently hot Liverpool.The gap from No.1 Blackburn in the Premier League has become eight points.

Liverpool defeated Arsenal and Manchester United in a row, surpassed Leeds United in results, and became No.4 in the Premier League again.There are already thirteen points away from Blackburn, only five points less than Arsenal.

So far Blackburn has won the Premier League half-time championship.

The Blackburn fans were delighted and so were the Blackburn papers.

The "Blackburn Evening News" even shouted that Blackburn will soon win the Premier League.

Steven Yellen is now a complete George advocate.

"After six years, we won the half-time championship again. In six years, we ushered in one manager after another, and finally we got the best manager for us. George Levy. This is his first time at Blackburn. In three seasons, we have already seen the dawn of the league championship."

"After six years, we Blackburn are truly back. The Premier League champions, we Blackburn!"

And in the back, he even praised George's work at Blackburn.Now anyone who reads Yellen's article will think that George and Yellen have some personal friendship.In fact, who would have known that the two were still rivals three years ago.

As soon as George met Yellen, he couldn't help but hurt him.And all Yellen's comments at the time were mocking Burnley and George.

But now the two have become the best relationship.

Things about people are never clear.

Of course, many media attach great importance to Blackburn's half-time Premier League championship.Even the "Liverpool Echo", which has always been at odds with George, spoke highly of Blackburn's half-time league title.

"Blackburn won the Premier League half-time championship in the 94-95 season. Blackburn won the half-time championship that year, and finally won the Premier League championship. Now Blackburn is stronger and more stable than then. The Premier League has After half a season, Blackburn only lost one game and drew four games. In nineteen games, only eleven points were lost."

"Blackburn are now six points ahead of Manchester United and eight points ahead of Arsenal. They are in the best position."

"I believe this season's Premier League champions must be Blackburn."

George doesn't know if the Liverpool Echo really thinks Blackburn have won the title, or if they are unwilling to let Manchester United win the title.

Anyway, for Liverpool, Manchester United and George hate it.Maybe they hate Manchester United even more, so they may support Blackburn to win the championship.

Anyway, George was not interested in the opinions of these newspapers.The half-time champion actually sounds nice.Among the current probabilities of the Premier League, the probability of the half-time champion winning the Premier League championship is only more than 30.00%, less than 40.00%.

Speaking of last season, Leeds United also won the half-time championship.so what?
At the end of last season, Leeds United did not even qualify for the Champions League.And in that big reversal season, Newcastle also won the half-time championship.The difference is that it was reversed by Manchester United.So winning the half-time championship does not mean the Premier League championship.

But winning the half-time championship is a good sign in any case.George was very happy.

If the current schedule is reasonable and don't play so many games at this time, Williams definitely hopes to hold a small celebration reception.It's a pity that Blackburn doesn't have the time to do this kind of thing now.

Because five days later, Blackburn will go to London to challenge Tottenham.

So after the game, George gave the players two days off.

"The performance in the past half season is good, and now we have two days off. Everyone go to enjoy Christmas." Although George himself has no interest in Christmas, all the players under George need to go to Christmas.

Married players have to live with their families.Those young guys need to live with their girlfriends.

Because it was the game on the 28th, George waved his hand and asked the players to come back for training on the 26th.

"But keep it in mind. If anyone plays crazy in the past two days and can't adjust well, then he can only go to the bench. Okay, disband!"

Seeing the players cheering, George shook his head.There are still many young Blackburn players, and of course they are willing to play.After the holiday, George was thinking about what he should do.Miranda recently said that their acquisition has entered the final stage.So these days are also busy.

Before he could think about it, the phone in his pocket rang.

"John, what can I do for you." George looked up at Williams' office and found that Williams was standing on it to call George.

"George, do you have time tonight? Shall we meet?"

"Okay. Of course." Although George is a country bumpkin, George likes to communicate with a gentleman like Williams.

Williams is the quintessential English gentleman.He is always calm and gentle when speaking, making the person he talks feel like spring breeze.

"George, I'm not alone. Mr. Walker wants to see you too."

"Mr. Walker?" George was taken aback. He hadn't seen Jack Walker for a long time. "OK."
