One hundred and nineteenth chapter finals! FA Cup!
After a day of training, the gate of Luton’s training base was opened.
Magis stared at the reporters at the door. Gao Bo had already explained that he must not allow anyone except the team players to have a chance to see the situation inside the training base. In order to block the reporters’ sight, the training base was originally The iron railing gate was covered with a thin layer of iron.
The players roared out from the door in their cars, without giving the reporters any chance.
Because Gao Bo has now issued a media silence order to the team, any player is prohibited from accepting media interviews during this time.
Adam was sitting in Vardy’s car, with Kanter and others in the car.
"New car?!!! Cool!!!"
Adam fumbled around in the car, his expression quite excited.
Valdy wore sunglasses, and the car roared out as soon as he stepped on the accelerator.
Adam or Kanter usually walk back by themselves. They are not that they can't afford a car. Although they are only players in the second division, their income is higher than most ordinary people in the UK. It’s just that neither of them got a driver’s license, Kanter still needs an English teacher...
Vardy recently signed a new contract given by the team. Under Gao Bo’s persuasion, owner David Morton finally agreed to break the team’s salary cap.
Gao Bo raised Vardy's salary to the level of a weekly salary of 12,000. He is now one of the highest paid players in the team, like Kanter.
The salary of 12,000 is actually an exaggerated salary for a second division team. After all, even the core players of the top teams in the second division have an average salary of five or six. Thousands of pounds. And now Vardy’s salary has basically reached the level of an average player in the Premier League.
The reason why Luton dared to make such a salary increase is because the team’s income has greatly increased this season. With the FA Cup tickets alone, the team has now earned more than one million pounds. With the addition of the TV share and game bonuses, the team earned close to three million pounds in the FA Cup!
This income is not comparable to that of any second division team, plus the team’s home stadium is full, and Sky Sports has also broadcast several Luton second division matches, which makes Luton’s income even more impressive. The tide rises!
It can be expected that Charlie Austin’s quotation has also been continuously raised, and Manchester United, which has the highest quotation, has raised the price to the five million list.
In the case of increased income, salary increases for core players are also on the agenda.
One of the motivations for professional players to play is salary. If the salary can't keep up, feelings alone won't keep people. Gao Bo is not willing to make the players who follow him suffer too much financially, so he focuses on the ball The salary of the core members of the team has been raised to over 10,000 pounds.
American David Morton is also ready to push the team to the capital market. For a team, the biggest asset is undoubtedly the players in their team. Therefore, David Morton has nothing to do with keeping players. Good words.
Now this Yankee is thinking about how to make money through the capital market.
From a brick mover with a weekly salary of 300 pounds to a professional player who earns more than 10,000 a week, Vardy's life has undergone a tremendous change in the past six months.
"You are going to start in the finals, Adam!"
Vardy said as he drove the car, "Then you have to seize the opportunity. Your stamina won't even support the first half."
"I have made a lot of progress now..." Adam sat in the back seat, "I want to become an iron man like N'Golo.."
Adam looked enviously at Kanter who was sitting next to him.
Recently, the team has run into a new formation in the training base. The players all know that the head coach made this lineup to use in the finals, so everyone is very motivated.
......
The reporters who squatted at the door for a long time found nothing. They could not get any news from the training base in Luton.
"Luton has closed training for nine days. During these nine days, no media can approach their training base. Luton’s coach and players have not been interviewed. In order to prepare for this FA Cup game, Luton This team has almost completely enclosed itself in the training base, and no one knows what their Chinese head coach is thinking..."
Benitez frowned while holding the newspaper.
His assistant Ayestaran knew what Benitez was thinking: "It's nothing more than intensive defense, all we need is to pay attention to their counterattacks!"
Benitez nodded, he put himself in the position of Gao Bo, and found that other than defending the counterattack, Luton absolutely had no other tactics to use.
Liverpool attacked, Luton defended.
This is the script in the FA Cup final.
Will there be accidents?
Benitez put the newspaper on the table.
The tricks of the Chinese coach still seem to work a little bit, at least I am a little disturbed by Luton's approach.
Unlike Luton, Liverpool seemed more confident before the game started.
Team captain Gerrard said in an interview: "This season we failed to make a breakthrough in the league and the Champions League, which makes our fans regret. But the only consolation is that we brought back the FA Cup championship. Trophy."
"Liverpool hasn't played in the final yet?!" the reporter reminded.
Gerrard smiled: "This is the FA Cup final. I don't think there will be any suspense in the game. We are Liverpool!"
"But they eliminated Chelsea..."
"We are Liverpool! Our players will not underestimate the enemy in the final!" Before the reporter finished speaking, Gerrard reached out and interrupted the opponent's words~EbookFREE.me~For Gerrard, this The championship is already determined.
Benitez doesn't agree with Gerrard's point of view, but the other party has said so in the media, and Benitez has nothing to do.
Let him criticize Gerald?
To be honest, Benitez is very clear that this team is absolutely inseparable from Gerrard, this is the soul of Liverpool, not a foreign coach from Spain who offended him.
"Yes, we only have the FA Cup champions to fight for, and we will do our best for this." Benitez said in a press conference before the game.
Gao Bo, who had been silent in the media for more than ten days, was finally caught by the reporters at the press conference, and a series of questions were thrown at him.
"Does Luton have a chance to beat Liverpool?"
"Football is round, this game has a chance for everyone."
"Whose chance is better?"
"You should toss a coin and calculate it yourself."
"What do you think of Liverpool?"
"They are the English giants, a strong team."
"Luton has closed training for more than ten days. Is this prepared to deal with Liverpool."
"It goes without saying!"
Gao Bo was expressionless, and briefly answered the questions raised by the reporters.
The press conference before the game ended soon. In order to prepare for tomorrow's final, Gao Bo decided to let the team set off one day earlier and head to Wembley!
After the press conference, Gao Bo took the team and embarked on the journey to the FA Cup finals.
Gao Bo waited until all the players were in the car and looked at the sunset in the distance.
Go to London here, I hope to see the morning sun.
