After defeating Spartak Moscow, Blackburn entered the quarterfinals of the League Cup.
The opponents in the quarterfinals of the League Cup have not yet come out. But three days later, the third round of the FA Cup will be in the English FA Cup. Because Blackburn is a Premier League team, just like the League Cup, there is no need to play the first and second rounds of the FA Cup. You can play the third round of the FA Cup directly.
The third round of the FA Cup is Port Vier Football Club from the English League Two.
George was considering whether to give up the FA Cup or continue playing.
Giving up the FA Cup is simple, just continue to send the reserve team and the substitutes to the field.
But it’s a pity to give up the FA Cup. It’s not that George is coveting the FA Cup championship, and George doesn’t have that extravagant hope. On the basis of playing in the league and the League Cup, he is still competing for the FA Cup. Only a stable strong team like Manchester United can consider it.
George felt it was a pity that if he gave up the FA Cup, then Blackburn substitutes might not get a good exercise.
There are many young players in Blackburn now, including Hargreaves, Parker, Drogba, Gala, Zauri, David Dunn, and Bellamy. If they only play in the league and the League Cup, it will be difficult for them to get many opportunities from the main players.
In the past, I could still play in the League Cup, but after entering the quarterfinals, they were all strong teams. It was not easy to get time for the game, and it was even more difficult to get the chance to play in the league. This was especially true for a few people in the midfield.
So George finally thought about it, it would be a few steps to take in the FA Cup. Therefore, George sent substitutes among the first team. Although they are all substitutes, their strength should not be underestimated. Facing the League Two club in Vier, Kevin Gallach, who has been away from the team for a long time, has shown that he is still not old.
In this game, George gave almost all substitutes the opportunity to appear, including players such as Parker, Zauri, David Dunn.
After the third round of the FA Cup, there is still one week left before the next game.

"George, is this here?" Mick Hughes looked at it with a frown.
Mick Hughes is an old employee of Blackburn, second only to Richard Flynn in the transfer department. He was also one of the employees who least welcomed George to join Blackburn. But after a season, Mick Hughes became the person who supported George the most.
George's performance in Blackburn has completely conquered Blackburn fans, including club employees like Mick Hughes.
Especially Mick Hughes, as a veteran in the transfer department, admires George very much.
George's transfer actions one after another made Mick Hughes admire him from the bottom of his heart.
George brought his direct descendant Klose to Blackburn and gave him a high weekly salary. This made Mick Hughes very annoyed George, which was a typical personal pocket. He used Blackburn's resources to support Klose, and indirectly supported Alan Levi. Of course, George would also make money in the middle.
Although no one said that, no one knew that there was also George's shares in Allen Levi's brokerage company. And it was not low. The reporter could not check such things by just one check. Mick Hughes was very despised by the players of his brokerage company so blatantly used the players of his brokerage company.
I hate George, and of course I also hate Klose. Even though Klose was Blackburn's main striker last season, Mick Hughes still felt that Klose was not worthy of being the main player.
However, during this contract renewal, George gave Klose a weekly salary of 12,000 pounds. Mick Hughes, who hates Klose, feels low.
With Klose's current performance and contribution in Blackburn, Klose should have received the top salary. Like Pire, Miku, Duff and others, it is in line with his current strength.
In fact, this contract renewal surprised many people. Because in their opinion, George's love for Klose and Klose's performance this season should be the best salary. But George did not give in and insisted on 10,000 pounds. In the end, Blackburn and Allen made a concession, and finally became 12,000 pounds.
George's reason is simple.
Unlike players like Duff who have already proven in the Premier League, and from players like Pire and Miku who have proven in both Ligue 1 and Premier League, Klose wants to get the same salary as them just because he has performed in less than half a season. This is impossible.
George's performance in renewal made many players feel that George is still very fair. He would not be unfair just because Klose is his own subordinate. It is also very beneficial to maintaining George's prestige.
George didn't have much explanation for Cloze. He just said something when he saw him.
"Looking forward. As long as you perform well, your salary is not a problem."
Klose did not make any trouble because of his salary problem. He still trained diligently and competed seriously.
When looking at the problem with a change of perspective, Mick Hughes now thinks George is very fair. Although the salary he gave Klose a bit high last season, George has vision.
Free introduction from Germany, but the time at Burnley was too short, and Klose has not yet used all his strength. Last year, Klose introduced him with less than 2 million pounds of transfer fees. Now Klose's performance in Blackburn is believed that Klose's net worth will exceed 10 million pounds after this season.
Thinking of this, Mick Hughes is increasingly impressed by George. All football commentators unanimously believe that Klose is the main player of the mid- and downstream teams in the League One, but George has given birth to a forward who is currently in a hot Premier League form.
"It should be here. The kid just now didn't mean this blue house."
George looked around and nodded. The only house near this house is a blue house. But this house is really too simple. George has been in England for so long, and it was the first time he saw such a bad house.
When George was in Burnley, Daniel Morrison's houses were much better than this one.
This is not a house, it is the house where George lived when he first came to Blackburn. The warehouses there are better than this house.
Mick Hughes looked for the doorbell in front of the door. Looking at Mick Hughes's actions, George smiled. Look at the house, do you still understand that even things like doorbells are luxurious in this house. So he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Who?" A rough voice rang out from inside.
Then someone opened the door. George paid attention to the first glance, not the person's appearance, but the dragged legs.
Because one of the legs of this man is lame, and he is twitching.
Then I looked at this person again. He was not tall, but definitely not low. He should be about 1.77 meters tall, because his slightly bent body could reach George's nose.
"You are..." The man in front of him looked at George and Mick Hughes in confusion.
"Hello. I am George Levy, he is Mick Hughes. Is this Yang Feng's home?" George spoke to him in skillful Chinese. This surprised him and looked at George.
But in just a moment, his face changed. He asked George nervously. "Is my kid causing trouble?"
"Can we go in and talk?".
"Please come in quickly"
The family is indeed very poor, not ordinary poor. The man in front of him seemed to have been injured in his legs and limped to lead the way for George. George did not ask him why this happened, although he was very curious.
"Well, what was the trouble that our kid had caused?" he asked George carefully.
George smiled and shook his head.
"He didn't make any trouble."
"Then you are..."
"I am the head coach of Blackburn Football Club. When I passed by you, I happened to see your son playing football. He is very talented and will definitely make great progress if he plays football. Of course, if he continues to waste time like this, he will become a popular person in a few years."
"I came here today and it's very simple. I hope your son can go to our club for regular football training."
"Play football? My Xiaofeng?" He looked at George in confusion.
George nodded. "Yes. He is very talented. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been here."
"My Xiaofeng can really play football?"
Seeing this person ask this, George was not impatient. Instead, he felt a sense of warmth. He would only ask this question if he was very nervous about his child.
"I can promise you."
"You're Blackburn's head coach?"
George nodded. It seemed that this person was not paying attention to Blackburn. But it was the same, even eating was a problem depending on their family's situation. Where can I get time to watch football?
Seeing this person, George knew that he still had many concerns.
"I can guarantee that your son is definitely a genius. But he needs to undergo professional training, otherwise his talent will be squandered in a few years. Then he will be too late to train."
He thought for a while and nodded slowly.
"Coach Levi, I will discuss it with my family tonight."
"Well. If you agree to him play football, you will take him to the club tomorrow." George stood up as he said.
Although George's observation that day was very fast and his skills were great. But this was just George's opinion. He still needed to go to the club for special tests while creating the right training method for him.
"George, you called me here today to drive you." Mick Hughes looked at George with a wry smile.
George shook his head.
"I'm asking you to see the environment of their home. If he's really talented tomorrow, he's going to help take care of their family. See what simple jobs can be done by their family. This is beneficial."
"You want to cultivate his feelings for the club since childhood."
"You don't understand. There is an old Chinese saying that a drop of water is to repay you with a spring of water. How much money can a family use? The small investment now may be a big reward in the future."
