Chapter 148 The Construction of the Youth Team (2)

"Old man, I didn't say I didn't like Bynes, it's because you're thinking too much."

When George, who heard Old Robson's words, came back from his meditation, was stunned at first, and then he realized that the other party must have misunderstood his actions just now: "In fact, I have decided to send someone to contact the Wigan Athletic Club and discuss the introduction of Bynes."

Although Bynes in his previous life was not a top player even at the peak of his career, otherwise he would not have received the call from the giants even though he was in his senior year, in George's view, this is mainly because Bynes was involved in Wigan Athletics and Everton during his most important growth stage, lacking enough big scene training and not enough competitive pressure in the team. If he played for a team of Arsenal early like Ashley Cole, then the Three Lions might have more players in the left-back position!

Not everyone has the same abilities as Hubner and Luka Tony. They can still become famous when playing in low-level leagues in the first half of their careers and become famous players. Generally speaking, the sooner they come into contact with high-level events, the greater the benefits and room for improvement that players can get from them. Therefore, if Bynes, who is less than 20 years old in this life, can dig to Tottenham in advance and allow him to receive training in high-level games earlier than his previous life, then this local left-back is likely to become stronger than his previous life and achieve higher achievements!

Therefore, the introduction of Leiden Bynes from Wigan Athletics was put on Tottenham's transfer schedule.

Two hours later, when Robson left George's office, the old coach's face was filled with an extremely bright smile not because he finally got a position suitable for him at Tottenham, nor because the Bynes he recommended was adopted by George, but because in addition, George also gave him the right to recommend players, although it was limited to the youth team!

In this way, Robson can use his advantage in connections to dig all the young players he is optimistic about to the Tottenham youth training camp and train them carefully. Of course, the premise is that these players must pass the assessment of Tottenham scouting department or get George's nod. Otherwise, no matter how optimistic Robson is, Tottenham will not pay to bring these people to White Hart Lane.

Although Robson, the old man was not tough enough in the locker room management, for example, during Newcastle's coaching period, he was eventually dismissed from the Magpie because of this. But it has to be said that Robson's vision and ability to cultivate young players can be said to be the most outstanding of all England coaches. Young players such as Dale, Bellamy, and Ameobi were all famous under him. Li Bowyer, the bad boy who everyone in England called to beat, also found some of his former peak state after transferring to the Magpie.

That's why George made the decision to let Robson as the youth training director and recommend players while giving him the right to manage the youth training camp affairs to Thomas Tuchel. Because Robson's character of spoiling young players is really not suitable to manage those English players who are becoming more and more self-centered.

Robson, the old man did not disappoint George's expectations. In less than a month, the old man had poached many future local stars for Tottenham through his deep connections in English football, such as Ryan Bertrand, Joe Hart, Andy Carroll, Daniel Sturridge, etc. George did not break his promise. After these players passed the evaluation of the scouting department, they finalized these transfers and brought them to Tottenham Hotspur as quickly as possible!

As for the development and growth experiences of these players after joining Tottenham, this is a later story, so I won't mention it here for now.

It can be foreseeable that under the training of Bobby Robson and Thomas Tuchel, coupled with the complete satellite club system carefully created by George, these English players have great hope to become real players from the height they reached in their previous lives, rather than just the "split" written by the British media!

After seeing off Old Robertson, George began to consider what to do with Matthew Taylor. Since he had decided to introduce Leiden Bynes from Wigan Athletics, there was no need to stay and overlap with Bynes, he was older and had a potential that was not as good as the former.

After receiving this news, Matthew Taylor himself did not show any reluctance or incredible emotions. This is because after a season of training, Matthew Taylor clearly realized the gap between him and the top players, and even more aware that with his current ability, it is impossible to gain a foothold in a championship-winning team like Tottenham!

Although Matthew Taylor has been quite happy in Tottenham in the past seasons, after receiving the notice of the club's transfer and departure, the left-back did not have much resistance. Because like Tony and Villa before, he also longed to get more playing time and game opportunities! Therefore, even if there is no such thing, sooner or later, he will apply to leave the team like Tony.

In European football, players who are both capable and willing to serve as rotation or even substitute can be said to be rare. Even top giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona in their previous lives spend a lot of money and energy on finding qualified substitutes every summer. Therefore, it is not surprising that Matthew Taylor has such an idea.

Although Matthew Taylor was just a substitute for Heinze in the just-concluded O3O4 season and only had the opportunity to represent Tottenham when the Argentine rested or in the domestic Cup, due to Tottenham's outstanding record in the League Cup and FA Cup last season, as well as his strong back shot, when Taylor was put on the shelves, there were still many English Championship teams starting the O4O5 season, and the Champions League replaced the English League One and became the second-level professional league in English football. The British relegation team developed a strong interest in the left back.
