Chapter 17: Angry Roy

At seven o'clock in the morning of August 8, Gao Bo woke up on time from the marching bed in his office.

In order to get the team on track as soon as possible, he took the team to train and prepare for warm-up games during the day in the past two months, and summarized the training situation and the situation of the players during the day at night, and at the same time adjusted the training plan of individual players in time according to the training effect, which almost squeezed out all his time, so that he could not fall asleep at three or four o'clock in the morning every day. No way, John Aston and others may be able to help him in command training, but in some other work, Gao Bo can only come by himself, so he simply lives in the team's training base, and he hasn't even been to the apartment that the team has rented for him a few times.

In the office bathroom, Gao Bo used cold water to drive away the residual drowsiness on his face, and then he stood in front of the mirror, zipped up his training clothes, and hung the whistle around his neck. It's standard when he's leading the team in training.

Gao Bo then took off the sticky notes attached to the mirror.

"August 8 itinerary: morning, counterattack routine drill + 45-minute confrontation match; Afternoon Pass Training + Pre-Match Press Conference! ”

Compared with the usual itinerary, today's itinerary has an additional press conference content.

On 9 August, Luton Town will play their first league game of the new season at home, where they will host their first opponents of the season, Port Vale!

The day's training passed quickly, because the next day was due to the game, the afternoon training incident was curtailed a lot by Gao Bo, and then the players were not allowed to go home, Gao Bo asked all his players to live in the training base before the game, if there are no special circumstances, if it is away, of course, it is to stay in a hotel.

Gao Bo then took the team's captain, Kevin Keane, to the conference hall on the first floor of the office building, which is always temporarily converted into a pre-game press conference before each home game.

Despite the small size of the conference hall, a second-division match did not receive much media attention, with the exception of Luton and Port Vale, only two British media giants, Sky Sports and the BBC, had the funds to have dedicated journalists stationed throughout the country.

Reporters sat sparsely around the chamber, with a row of tables at the front, with John Aston making an impromptu cameo as press officer, and Gao Bo taking Kevin Keane in a chair with two microphones.

All the reporters were staring at Gao Bo, a Chinese head coach of an English team, and this kind of thing was the first time that these well-seen Western reporters had seen it.

Gao Bo didn't dress up because he was going to attend a press conference, he was still wearing the training clothes he wore when he went out in the morning, and he didn't even have time to take off the whistle around his neck.

Gao Bo's image is placed in front of a group of reporters, to be honest, if the reporters still have some mystery about Gao Bo's identity before, then by now, this mystery has long been lost without a trace.... In addition to looking a little handsome, this Oriental man can't match the head coach at all.

He looks so young, he looks so much younger than Kevin Keane next to him!

Dressed in a black professional suit, the smart Roy Saul sat in the front row, with a hint of anger on her face, which made the reporter with light makeup show a hint of coquettishness in her neat and capable style.

Lowy is a reporter for Luton's largest local newspaper, the Hat Seller, and the name of the paper suggests that the paper's position is known as the "Hat Sellers" for the Luton team!

Løy, of course, is also a Luton fan, she is a Luton native, and her family has been a fan of Luton since a hundred years ago.

At this time, Løy looked at the young Luton manager, and she felt a wave of anger.

In her opinion, David Luton, who came back from the United States, is simply a mess, do Americans understand football?

The fact that the American had found a twenty-seven-year-old Chinese to run her home team did not make Roy indignant.

Miss Roy looked at her notebook, rested her right hand on her right thigh, and as soon as the press officer announced the start of the press conference, she raised her hand to grab the first opportunity to ask questions.

John Aston didn't keep Miss Lowy waiting too long.

"It's twenty minutes of free questioning..."

As soon as John's words fell, Roy's hand was raised. Naturally, she was given the first chance to ask questions.

Miss Roy squinted at Gao Bo.

Bastard, Luton Town is not a team that anyone can coach!

Miss Roy stood up, her chest rippling.

Gao Bo used to look at Roy's face, but now as soon as the other party stood up, he found that this female reporter was quite tall, especially when she sat in the front row, as soon as she stood up, Gao Bo's eyes could only stay between Roy's waves.

Gao Bo coughed awkwardly and turned his head away slightly.

There was a slight laugh in the chamber, and it was clear that they had noticed the Luton manager's embarrassment.

Roy's face darkened, she frowned, the anger on her face was already undisguised.

"Mr. Gao Bo! You've brought three players from the amateur league to Luton Town this season, don't you know enough about the intensity of the second division?! ”

Roy looked up, a hint of defiance on his face.

This cowardly bastard, I'll see how you get off the stage today!

Kevin Keane glanced at the manager worriedly, "The Hat Seller" is Luton's local mouthpiece, and now even Luton's mouthpiece is full of malice towards Gao Bo, you can imagine what kind of image Gao Bo is in the psychology of fans. But Kevin Keane knows that Gao Bo is definitely a high-level manager, not to mention the tactical system he has built for the team, just the players he has brought in, every player in Kevin Keane's opinion has the ability to play at least in the Championship level team!

Gao Bo looked at this English girl who looked at him with a provocative face with great interest.

Gao Bo has long known that the media in England is not easy to mess with, so he did not expect much from the press conference, and he did not even do a perfunctory change of clothes.

But if there are such eye-catching beauties in the front row of every press conference, this press conference does not look useless.

'I've brought in enough players to get a foothold in the second division, in fact even in the first division or even the Championship, my players are good enough to handle it. Gao Bo sat up slightly straighter and said with a flat face.

"The second division is a professional league, Mr. Gao Bo!!"

"Miss Reporter, I am now the head coach of a professional league, and I know more than you need to know what a professional league is!"

Reporters from Luton's mouthpiece, the newspaper, got into an argument with the Luton manager, and the other reporters at the press conference watched with great interest.

At the end of the press conference, Gao Bo stood up from his position, and before turning to leave, he turned his head and said: "Vardy and Charlie are the best strikers in the second division, Kante will be the best defensive midfielder in this league, and you will know when the season starts, Miss Reporter!" ”

After Gao Bo finished speaking, he turned and left.

The best striker?

The best defensive midfielder?

Talk in your dreams, damn bastards!

Roy bit his lip and stared fixedly at Gao Bo's back.

Other reporters were confused.

We haven't asked any questions yet.......
