Chapter 179 What about the magpie?

Tottenham beat Liverpool 2-0 at home, which caused quite a stir in the English football world. After all, Liverpool has made a lot of moves in the transfer market this summer. Not only has it introduced strong players such as Robbie Keane, Cice, Luis Garcia, but it also invited the meritorious coach Rafa Benitez who led Valencia to win the double championships in La Liga and League Cup last season. The recruitment strength is only slightly worse than Chelsea with Abramovich backing!

Looking at Tottenham, George Nelson not only did not continue the aggressive momentum of last summer, but only made a few transfers that were considered a flaw in people's eyes, but also sold absolute main players or important rotation players such as Heinze, Carrick, Robbie Keane and Luca Tony, which caused the overall strength of the team to be greatly affected. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Tottenham, which played at home, will inevitably usher in a tough battle!

Therefore, the result of this game was so shocking. Because Liverpool, widely favored, did not take any advantage from Tottenham from beginning to end. If it weren't for the goal post, the Reds might even have swallowed more than four bullets in the league!

After witnessing Tottenham defeating Liverpool with an overwhelming advantage, the British media, who had already criticized George's summer signing moves, immediately turned their guns and began to crazily praise his signings, saying that Alonso is Guardiola's second, Quark Loze can be called the reincarnation of Ged Muller. Evra, who performed well, became Lizarazu's qualified successors in their mouths. Even Mendeta and Robben, who have not yet officially played for Tottenham, were also highly anticipated by the media!

Despite the endless buzzing, Tottenham did not care too much about these remarks because most of them knew exactly how two-faced these media were!

George is naturally extremely pleased with the calm attitude the players show. After all, too many teams have fallen in this kind of flattering atmosphere, and George does not want Tottenham to become the next unlucky person.

After defeating Liverpool and winning the league in the new season, George led the Tottenham Hotspur team to St James Park Stadium to challenge Newcastle United, which also experienced a major blood change in the summer!

"George, have you considered it? What kind of attitude should we treat this game with Newcastle?" Sitting on the train to Newcastle, Old Charlie once again raised the question that had been put on hold for several days. "Do you win the game and stop after locking in the victory?"

"Well... I have communicated with the old man before about this matter." Seeing that Old Charlie took the initiative to mention this matter, George was considering how to make a decision, while recalling the conversation he had with Old Robson before.

"Old man." The day before going to Newcastle, George found Robson, who was checking player information in the office, and asked a question that had been in his mind for a long time, "Tomorrow is the game between us and Newcastle. Is there anything I need to help? For example, in this game, he gave Newcastle a hard lesson and let the ungrateful guy Shepard know what an idiotic decision to dismiss you!"

"Boy, I'm very happy that you have this idea." Old Robson hesitated for a while, and finally politely rejected George's proposal. "However, resigning from Newcastle is a personal grudge between me and Shepard. Boy, it's better not to mix it up casually. As Tottenham Hotspur's boss and head coach, making too many enemies is not a good thing for you, nor is it a clever move."

Although he was betrayed by Newcastle's management and players in the final stage of his head coaching career and was very disappointed with Shepard's actions, Robson, the old man, did not intend to get George into the dispute, and he did not want him to pay such a huge price for himself!

If George chases Newcastle to the end in order to give Robertson a vent, then Tottenham will inevitably have another enemy in the English football world, which will cause unnecessary trouble to George's career.

"I decided, Charlie. I will breathe a sigh of relief for the old man no matter what he said in this game!" After pondering for a long time, George finally couldn't help but take revenge on Newcastle and left old Robson's instructions behind him. For him, who is extremely emotional, if he doesn't teach these ungrateful wolves a lesson and leave them a profound lesson, then he will always have a thorn in his heart that he will never be able to pull out!

Whether it is to say that George is seeking self-satisfaction or avenge Robson. In short, George set the tone of Tottenham's game, that is, to beat Newcastle with all his might, the better the score difference!

Not to mention Newcastle, you magpies, even if you are a phoenix with Nirvana skill, I will pull out all your hair and avenge the old man!

To be honest, George and Charlie both forgot an important point at this time, that is, Newcastle is not a fish slaughtered by people on the chopping board, and there are no obvious flaws in lineup configuration like Liverpool. You should know that Newcastle was able to win the sixth place in the league last season in a civil unrest, which is enough to prove the strength of the Magpie!

However, even so, neither George nor Charlie took the Newcastle under Sones seriously. In the eyes of the two, there was no difference between the Newcastle under Robson, and the fish placed on the chopping board for slaughter!

Although it seems like George is a bit conceited, it is the fact. You know, Newcastle in his previous life never returned to the ranks of the No. 1 group after Robson left, and was relegated from England in just five seasons. And the magpies in this life are also destined to be unable to escape this fate!

When Robson was in Newcastle, the coach could use his lofty prestige and coaching skills to suppress these bad guys in the team, ensuring the minimum harmony and stability of the locker room. When Robson left office, there was no iron-blooded coach taking over, and the Magpies management was still making trouble, no one could stop these people from destroying this team that once had a bright future!

In this way, at 4 pm on August 21, the entire Tottenham Hotspur team took the bus to St James Park Stadium on time and prepared to challenge Newcastle United!
