Chapter 119 Final! FA Cup!

After a day's training, the doors of Luton's training base were opened.

Magis looked at the reporters at the door with great eye, Gao Bo had already explained that no one except the team players should be allowed to peek into the situation inside the training base, in order to block the reporters' sight, the original iron railing gate of the training base was covered with a thin layer of iron.

The players roared out of the door in their cars, giving reporters no chance.

Because Gao Bo has now issued a media silence order to the team, no player is allowed to give interviews to the media during this time.

Adam was in Vardy's car, which was accompanied by N'Golo Kante and others.

"New car?!! Cruel!!! ”

Adam was groping around in the car, his expression quite excited.

Vardy wore sunglasses and stepped on the accelerator and the car roared out.

Usually Adam or N'Golo Kante walk back on their own, and it's not like they can't afford a car – even though they're only second-division players, they earn more than most ordinary people in Britain. It's just that neither of them got a driver's license, and Kante still needs an English teacher...

Jamie Vardy recently signed a new contract from the team and, after being persuaded by Gobo, owner David Morton finally agreed to break the team's salary cap.

Gobo raised Jamie Vardy's salary to 12,000 a week at once, and he is now one of the highest-paid players in the squad, along with N'Golo Kante.

The salary of 12,000 is actually an exaggerated salary for a team in the second division, after all, even the core players of those teams at the top of the table in the second division have an average salary of five or six thousand pounds. And now Vardy's salary has basically reached the level of the average player in the Premier League.

The reason why Luton Town dared to make such a salary increase is because the team's income this season has increased significantly, just on the FA Cup tickets, the team has now earned more than a million pounds, plus the share of TV broadcasts and game bonuses, the team earns nearly three million pounds in the FA Cup!

This income is unmatched by any team in the second division, coupled with the team's full home stadium and the fact that Sky Sports has also broadcast several Luton second division games, which makes Luton's income even higher!

Predictably, Charlie Austin's offer has also been continuously raised, and now Manchester United, the highest bidder, has raised his price to five million.

In the case of increased income, salary increases for core players are also on the agenda.

One of the main motivations for professional players to play football is salary, if the salary can't keep up, it can't keep people by relying on feelings alone, and Gao Bo is not willing to let the players who follow him suffer too much financially, so he mainly raises the salary of the core members of the team to more than 10,000 pounds.

American David Morton is also ready to push the team into the capital market, and the biggest asset for a team is undoubtedly the players in their team, so David Morton has nothing to say about retaining players.

Now this Yankee is thinking about how to make money through the capital market.

From a brick mover earning £300 a week to a professional player who now earns more than $10,000 a week, Vardy's life has changed dramatically in the past six months.

"You're going to start in the final, Adam!"

As Vardy drove the car, he said: "Then you have to take your chances, you won't be able to support the first half with your fitness." ”

"I've improved a lot now.." Adam sat in the back seat, "I'd like to be an iron man like Ngolo."

Adam looked at Kanter, who was sitting next to him, with some envy.

Recently, the team has been grinding in a new formation in the training ground, and the players know that the manager has come up with this line-up for the final, so everyone is very motivated.

......

The reporters who had been squatting at the gate for a long time found nothing, and they could not get any news from the training base in Luton.

'Luton Town have been training behind closed doors for nine days and no media have been able to approach their training base for nine days, and neither the manager nor the players have been interviewed. In preparation for this FA Cup game, Luton's team has almost completely closed themselves to their training base, and no one knows what their Chinese head coach is up to.....

Benitez took the newspaper and frowned.

His assistant Ayestaran knew what Benitez was thinking: "It's nothing more than a dense defense, all we need is to pay attention to their counter-attacks!" ”

Benitez nodded, he put himself in the position of Gao Bo, and found that Luton had absolutely no other tricks to use other than defending and counter-attacking.

Liverpool attacked, Luton defended.

That's the script for the FA Cup final.

Will there be any surprises?

Benitez put the newspaper on the table.

The tricks of the Chinese coach seem to have worked, at least I'm a little distracted by Luton's tricks now.

Unlike Luton, Liverpool looked much more confident before the game began.

Captain Steven Gerrard said in an interview: "It's a shame for our fans that we haven't been able to make a breakthrough in the league and the Champions League this season. The only consolation is that we brought home the FA Cup. ”

"Liverpool still hasn't played the final?!" The journalist reminded.

Steven Gerrard smiled: "It's an FA Cup final and I don't think there's going to be any suspense. We are Liverpool! ”

"But they knocked out Chelsea..."

"We are Liverpool! Our players won't be careless in the final! Before the reporter could finish speaking, Gerald reached out and interrupted the other party's words.

For Gerrard, the title is a certainty.

Benitez doesn't really agree with Gerrard's opinion, but the other party has already said so in the media, and Benitez can't do anything.

Let him criticize Gerald?

To be honest, Benitez knows very well that this team is absolutely inseparable from Gerrard, who is the soul of Liverpool, not a foreign coach from Spain who offended him.

'Yes, we only have the FA Cup to fight for and we're going to give it our all.' Speaking at his pre-match press conference, Rafa Benitez said.

And Gao Bo, who had been silent in the media for more than ten days, was finally caught by reporters at the press conference, and a series of questions were thrown at him.

'Do Luton have a chance of beating Liverpool?'

"Football is round, and this game is a chance for everyone."

"Whose chances are better?"

"You should go toss a coin yourself and figure it out."

"What do you think of Liverpool?"

'They're England giants and they're a strong team.

"Luton have been training in locks for more than 10 days, and this is not prepared for Liverpool."

"It goes without saying!"

Gao Bo was expressionless, and answered briefly in the face of the questions thrown by the reporters.

The pre-match press conference ended quickly, and in order to prepare for tomorrow's final, Gao Bo decided to let the team leave a day earlier and head to Wembley!

After the press conference, Gao Bo took the team on the journey to the FA Cup final.

Gao Bo waited until all the players got on the bus and looked at the sunset in the distance.

I went to London, hoping to see the rising sun.
