chapter 69

______________________________________________

Liverpool.

Coach's Office.

Liverpool manager Houllier is also concerned about the game.

After watching the whole video, he was also a little heavy and bottomless.

The previous Blackpool team had been able to score both of them through individual player flashes.

This Blackpool, which is stronger as a whole and has more shining points, what should they do?

Moreover, before the end of this game, Houllier is actually not optimistic about the victory over Blackpool.

Leeds United has already double-killed Liverpool in this season's league, and some points are surprisingly strong.

Houllier understands this.

He had planned to pay a moment of silence James, who had a good relationship with him.

As a result, Blackpool killed Leeds United neatly!

He now thought of what James told him when he left Anfield last time. The next time he comes here, he will take away a victory.

Houllier suddenly felt that this was not a joke.

It's a very likely thing to happen.

"If that day ever comes..."

Houllier thought about it for a long time, but he smiled bitterly and said relieved: "Then send blessings to this young man in person."

He envied James, but more appreciated.

Perhaps it was James who achieved what he dared to imagine when he was young but could not do it, and possessed a football talent that he did not have at his age in.

Or maybe it's heroes and heroes, sympathizing with each other.

Another two weeks passed.

The time has come to May.

While Blackpool was comfortably battling the league, the draw for the FA Cup started one after another.

Teams that made it to the quarter-finals, six

Premier League teams, one Championship team, and one English League one team!

In this round of draws, several high-profile teams have drawn well.

Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, not against each other.

Avoid the risk of having to subtract one of these three giants in the quarterfinals.

Avoid the risk of having to subtract one of these three giants in the quarterfinals.

And Blackpool from the British League one also drew a good draw in the quarter-finals!

They have drawn the only Championship team, wolves!

After signing this out.

Even the fans of other teams who were eager to see Blackpool eliminated consciously stopped paying attention to the game.

Except after a lot of people stayed at home and cursed Blackpool shit luck.

No one made unnecessary comments.

They knew that Blackpool might be taking this opportunity to make it to the Final Four...

Having already beaten third-placed in the Premier League, no one thinks they will lose to another championship team.

Maybe only after entering the semi-finals and meeting Manchester United and Arsenal, can this Blackpool be overturned...

Imperceptibly, many fans of the hostile Blackpool have not noticed that in their own hearts, it seems that Blackpool's status has been unconsciously getting higher and higher...

And when the time came to the end of May.

The FA Cup quarter-finals are on!

This is a round of games without any unpopularity, and almost all of it is carried out according to the guesses of the fans before the game.

Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool!

These three teams, all of which defeated the rival Premier League teams, advanced to the semi-finals of the FA Cup!

Blackpool, who also beat wolves 3-0, reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup!

That's it.

These teams with the most attention have gathered in the top four of the top domestic cup competitions in England!

This also makes this event, in this year's attention extra high!

June 15th.

Blackpool training base.

in the coach's office.

James is sitting here, waiting for the draw for the FA Cup semi-finals.

To get to this point, there are still two games left to win this cup.

There is nothing else to say, I will definitely try my best to win the championship!

While waiting, James's thoughts drifted to other places involuntarily.

Before he knew it, he had come here and had been taking over Blackpool for almost a year.

In about a month, the summer transfer window will start again..

At first, blackpool bought Ibrahimovic, Ronaldinho and Vidic through this window.

Then embarked on the ladder of the league win of the season.

"This year's summer window, who should I buy?"

James couldn't help but take advantage of this time gap to think.

The position that the team needs to improve now is obvious, the midfielder and the full back.

In this summer window, the people in these two positions must be finalized first.

Then see if there are any other suitable players, and then enhance the thickness of the bench.

"The two attacking midfielders, Kaka and Ronaldinho, have strong offensive abilities."

James muttered to himself: "Then in the midfield position, a strong defensive player must be needed."

The first thing that came to his mind was Kante, Makelele.

But these two players, one is only about eleven years old, the other seems to have been bought by AC Milan in 2000.

Neither works well.

Reluctantly, James can only consider other players.

After thinking for a while, another figure appeared in his mind.

Essien!

The midfielder who later played for Chelsea and Real Madrid has a very comprehensive ability.

Defend, control the ball, protect the ball.

All are top notch.

More importantly, at this time, his reputation is not obvious...

Not being famous is definitely the most important thing when Blackpool buys people...

"Just him, the lower back."

James picked up another leak, said something pleasantly, and then began to think about players in other positions.

full-back...

Alves?

The full-back, who later played for Barcelona, ​​was the world's number one full-back for a long time.

The ability is also relatively comprehensive, able to attack and defend, and the understanding of the game is also very deep.

If I remember correctly, at this point in time, Alves also hadn't made a name for himself in Seville.

Just wasted in his youth club.

As for the full-back on the other side, if there is a suitable one, James is also ready to buy.

But considering the time point, many fullbacks at this time are already somewhat famous.

Want to buy them, maybe a team playing League next season is not realistic.

The only way is that Blackpool can win the FA Cup this season!

Then through the identity of the FA Cup champion, qualify for the Europa League!

Become a team for next season's Europa League!

In this way, it is very attractive to many players.

They will believe that Blackpool is a team with great potential.

Willing to tie myself to Blackpool's warship and grow with blackpool.

"Let's start with Essien and Alves now, and think about a few more when the summer window comes."

James said something, and then concentratedly waited for the draw for the FA Cup semi-finals.

He also sighed a little in his heart. In just three transfer windows, he may be able to put together a very luxurious lineup.

This lineup, if it is properly exercised for a year or two, is paired with powerful tactics.

Quadruple,maybe not too far away?
