Chapter 45: The Fast-Driven December

Chapter 45: The Fastest December

Luton almost crushed the top team Wycombe Rovers in a crushing manner, making all the teams in the second division look sideways.

Wycombe Rovers manager Peter Taylor said in his post-match press conference: "First of all I would like to congratulate Coach Gao Bo, he has done a great job and Luton are now at least a notch above the rest of the Second Division. Yes. Vardy, Charlie Austin, Drinkwater, Kanter, young centre-back Jeffrey, and even Adam White and Matt Schmidt on the bench are enviable Players, I really don't know where Gao Bo called these great players."

It is difficult to quantify how much higher Luton is than other teams in the second division. Gao Bo found that he was really not enthusiastic about the competition in the second division, because the opponent was too weak. He is now desperate to bring Luton to the Premier League, where should he go!

But even if Luton are promoted to one level a year, it will take at least three seasons to be promoted to the Premier League. Until then, where Luton can play against high-level teams is the cup. The League Cup has been eliminated, and as the league is getting better and better, Gao Bo is now focusing on the FA Cup! !

However, the league game still has to be played one by one. On the fourth day after the game against Wycombe Wanderers, Luton ushered in the British Championship game at home, against the visiting Colchester United, facing this second League lower league ball. The team, Luton, who had rotated most of the main lineup, did not make much effort, and they won the opponent 2-0 at home.

On December 20th, in the 21st round of the league, the main lineup after a week of refurbishment faced Morecamby at home. Facing the opponent's iron barrel formation, Luton spent a lot in the first half. Finally, at the end of the first half, captain Kevin Keane broke the net with a long-range shot and helped the team open the key to victory. When Luton took the lead, the iron barrel formation was useless. Morecamby attacked. As a result, Luton countered twice in the second half to expand the score. In the end, they defeated Morecamby 3-0 at home and continued to maintain a super high scoring efficiency in the league.

After the training on December 24th, Luton held a Christmas dinner in the restaurant of the training base. Now everything in Luton is developing in a good direction. So far, the league has not lost a game. The only team still undefeated.

"We even have hope of upgrading this season!!!" the owner David Morton said excitedly standing on the stage.

"Class A!! Class A!!!"

The players warmed up below.

Gao Bo smiled and looked at the conditions of the players.

Is it just an upgrade? My goal is not just that...

Gao Bo did not express his thoughts. He worried that if the players were under pressure, they might not perform so well.

Immediately after the chimes of Christmas, Luton was greeted with two games that Gobble called a "shit schedule".

On December 26th, Luton played away to Cheltfield. With the second-placed Lincoln City at home two days later, Gao Bo made a large rotation in this game, except for Kante. In addition, Vardy, Charlie Austin, Kane Keane, Drinkwater and others did not start.

This game lasted for more than 80 minutes, and the score on the field was still zero to zero. Facing the opponent's iron barrel formation, Luton's offensive could only fail again and again. And just when Gao Bo was about to accept a draw, a scene that made him angry happened on the field.

At that time, Gao Bo was unscrewing the cap of the bottle to drink water. He just threw the water on the ground as soon as he unscrewed the cap.

It was originally a chance for Luton to take a corner kick, but the first point was knocked out by the opponent, and then a long-range shot from the opponent's extremely fast winger took the ball to the front of the penalty area and hit the world wave,

The ball rubs against the right angle between the crossbar and the post into the goal, which will be helpless.

"Damn!!!!" Gao Bo threw the water on the ground fiercely, startling the substitutes and coaches behind him. The home team's fans almost went crazy with excitement. In this small stadium that can only accommodate thousands of people, Gao Bo even felt like being in Real Madrid's Bernabeu. For Cheltfield, If they can win this season's second division super team at home, this game is enough for them to brag for a month.

In the end, Luton still suffered the first defeat of the season. Gao Bo was very disappointed with the result, but he also knew that this day would come sooner or later. No team can never lose. Arsenal created the season The miracle of winning the championship unbeaten is a low probability time that is finally achieved by the combination of strength and luck. In fact, even in Arsenal that season, there were several games that were almost lost.

Gao Bo quickly adjusted his mentality, it is better to lose now than at a crucial moment...for example, losing to Chelsea in the FA Cup!

.....

The last game of December, the twenty-third round of the league, Luton vs. Lincoln City!

In this game, Luton made the most of the main force. The loss in the last game seemed to make Luton's players very concerned. They were aggressive from the beginning of this game. Gao Bo guessed that the opponent was going to set up an iron barrel, so this game Gao Bo sent Adam White!

The current Adam White still has not passed the test in terms of physical fitness. His current physical fitness is the worst in the first team. In order to improve Adam's physical fitness, fitness coach Mel works overtime for an hour after training every day - just to improve this kid. Physical condition.

Adam is a player who can only use half-court, Gao Bo still regrets this. With Adam's speed and spiritual dribbling skills honed on the street, Gao Bo reminds Leicester City to win the championship. In Mahrez this season, with such a player with breakthrough ability, the iron barrel formation is relatively easy for Luton to knock out.

A ball that opened the game for Luton should indeed be credited to Adam White, who created a free-kick to the left of the box with a breakthrough on the left.

Drinkwater took the set-piece, and it hit Jeffrey's head accurately. The Dutch teenager jumped high and put the ball into the goal.

After taking the lead, Luton played much better. Before the end of the first half, Luton scored again, and Vardy helped the team expand the score.

In the second half, Gao Bo replaced Adam White, Adam's physical ability can only allow him to play forty-five minutes of the game.

The victory of this game gave Gao Bo a sigh of relief. What he was most worried about was that the defeat in the previous game would cause a landslide effect. In any case, Luton was still more than ten points behind the top of the league.
