Chapter 271 is the second in the league with the highest points

The league is coming to an end.

At this stage, Luton Town has basically occupied one of the two direct promotion places in the promotion zone, and they don't have to play any play-off games.

The form of the English First Division title race has also gradually become clear, Charlton Athletic is gradually struggling and Leeds United have fallen behind.

For Luton, as long as they don't careless in the league, this season's league title is still in their hands.

And the remaining promotion spot is, of course, between Leeds United and Charlton Athletic.

In addition to the battle for the top of the standings, the relegation situation in the First Division is gradually becoming more and more intense.

After the opponents in the draw came out, Mendes made a phone call to Gobo.

Luton Town reached the last four of the Europa League, not only as their players were being targeted by other top-flight teams, but also by their coaches.

"There are several teams in the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and the Bundesliga who are asking me where you are going next season. I want to know what you think. ”

As an agent, this is also Mendes' job.

Gao Bo thought for a while and replied: "I want to wait until the end of the season to talk about this matter, and now the later the season, the more critical it is!" ”

Although Gao Bo did not give a positive statement, Mendes is a smart man, and he immediately knew Gao Bo's thoughts.

Gao Bo must have the intention of leaving, and the platform of Luton is still too small. However, he does not want any news of the manager's departure to affect the team's preparations.

Gao Bo let out a sigh of relief after hanging up Mendes' phone.

Win the Europa League and use the Europa League as a springboard to enter the big teams. This is Gao Bo's career plan for a long time.

However, when this thing really tended to be realized step by step, Gao Bo was a little stunned.

In the two seasons in Luton, he has built a team with a reasonable squad and appropriate tactics, and if this team can continue to strengthen and develop, Gao Bo is even sure to use this team to enter the Premier League and win the Premier League championship!

But Gao Bo knows his players can't wait.

Let them continue to wait a year in the Championship?

Gao Bo is not sure to keep these players.

When faced with the call of the big five league teams, how many of these players will not be tempted?

Of course, Gao Bo also understands this idea, and he does not plan to force this group of players to stay.

He brought Luton back to the Championship, but for Luton as a team, even if they could eventually return to the Premier League, it would mean nothing.

They have a weak foundation, and it's good to keep this group of players, and they may be able to create a glorious era with this group of players. But for the team, the real foundation is their youth system.

In Gobo's view, even if he leads the team to the Europa League this season, it will not be his biggest asset to Luton Town – his bigger legacy will be the ever-expanding Academy of Football.

Now the curriculum of the academy has been revised a lot by Gao Bo, deleting many of England's more emphasis on headers and long balls and hanging tactics, but instead more emphasis on ground coordination and emphasizing the overall tactical style of the youth training system.

Gao Bo believes that there are still merits in England's youth training system, but the development of football in the future will pay more attention to tactics and the whole, and the players should strengthen their ties from an early age.

Luton may seem strong now, but they are actually rootless, and they must lay a solid foundation in this area.

Gao Bo is well aware of what the future of commercial football will bring to the entire professional football.

The influx of money has made transfer fees hit new highs almost every year.

The hundreds of millions of dollars in transfer fees in the future are not something a small team like Luton Town can afford – if they intend to continue buying people in the transfer market to remain competitive.

For a small club like Luton, creating an academy system that is in line with the tactics of the first team is what really allows them to continue to grow and develop. The tactics played by the academy are the same as those of Gao Bo in the first team - for this reason, Gao Bo often takes turns to let the players of the youth team come to the first team base to participate in training, and at the same time let the coaches of the youth team come to the first team to observe and learn.

This academy will be the greatest asset that Gao Bo left to the team.

.......

The April race schedule is also continuing.

On April 13, in the 39th round of the First Division, Luton Town challenged Oldham United.

Charlton Athletic's game was played a day earlier than Luton, so it also made the Luton fans very happy – because Charlton lost away to Southian!

Towards the end of the league, Charlton began to drop points frequently.

And Luton, of course, are not at all kind!

They beat Oldham Athletic 3-0 away and now have seven points separating Charlton and Luton Town on the table, with only a theoretical chance left if Charlton want to win the title.

To make matters worse for Charlton, they have now slipped down to the same level as Leeds United, only temporarily sitting in second place on goal difference.

Charlton is not careful, I am afraid that he will slip to third place to participate in the promotion play-offs.

Charlton are the top team at the top of the table most of the season, but unfortunately, they may not have the last laugh.

Luton won't give them a chance.

On 19 April, Luton Town take on Millwall away!

Millwall had a strong style of play and tried to stop Luton's attack with big moves, but they ultimately paid the price for the foul.

In the eighteenth minute of the game, Griezmann burst into the penalty area and was put to the ground, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty.

Antoine Griezmann takes the penalty!

1 to 0!

Just three minutes later, Millwall was struck again!

Adam was fouled up front and Luton were awarded a set-piece up front.

Antoine Griezmann passes the ball into the box and centre-back Saul Campbell heads it over!

Two to zero!

At the end of the first half, Luton Town scored again from a free-kick!

Antoine Griezmann's direct free-kick goes around the wall and into the corner1

Three to zero!

Millwall conceded goals one after another, and Millwall, who was playing at home, was completely out of temper.

Luton, who had already sealed the win in advance, played a little more restrained in the second half, after all, the opponent played a fierce style, and Gao Bo was also worried that his player would be kicked and injured.

In the end, Luton Town also won 3-0 to maintain their lead in the league.

On April 19, in the final league game before the Europa League semi-finals, the team hosts Brighton!

With a slight rotation, Luton's form remains unstoppable.

Luton Town had a two-goal lead in the first half, with substitute striker Matt heading home and then Jamie Vardy snatching the ball into the net from inside the box.

In the second half, Kevin Keane scored another goal from distance!

Luton Town won 3-0 at home.

Forty-two rounds of league games have been played so far, and Luton Town have already picked up one hundred and four points! Charlton, who trailed them by seven points, scored 97 points.

Charlton Athletic is also quite pitiful, with their current points, 97 points have been able to lock up the league title in any previous season, but this season they met Luton, which makes them even if they get a high score of 97 points, there is still little hope of winning the title.

With the final six rounds of the league remaining, Charlton Athletic or Leeds United could become the second highest league in the league in more than a decade....
