Chapter 144 Do You Feel Better?

Chapter 144 Does it feel better?

After a few days of adjustment at the training base, Gao Bo took the team to the sunny Iberian Peninsula.

This year's pre-season training Gao Bo decided not to stay in England, but went to the famous Spanish Marbella football center. In addition to because the weather here is far more suitable for pre-season training than the rainy England, the more important reason is that the Marbella training base is large enough that many teams will choose to come here for training, which means that Teams can easily find warm-up opponents here.

After arriving in Spain, the team's training really entered the devil mode that made the players complain.

Faced with the seemingly increasing amount of training day by day, veteran Campbell couldn't bear it. Campbell, who is already 35 years old, feels his legs are shaking after training almost every day. After all, age is already here.

The rest of Luton's players are still very young. Campbell has nothing in common with these young players. Instead, he can talk to Kevin Keane, who is about his age.

After one morning's practice, Campbell, who was walking side by side with Kevin Keane, nudged Kevin next to him with the tip of his elbow as he walked to the dining room.

"Kevin...Did you train that much last season?!"

Kevin shrugged: "I don't want you to think how our FA Cup came from. We won the FA Cup as the B-League!"

"But the amount of training is too much!!"

"Don't worry, Sol, it's just a week or two. The training volume is a bit larger during the period of reserve physical fitness. After this period of time, it will be much better when there is a ball to train..."

"Hey... over 30 years old, the body is not as good as these hairy boys..."

Campbell touched his bald head and sighed.

......

The training before the season was done step by step, but Gao Bo's work was still very busy. The players' daily training situation and their physical conditions would be sorted into data before Gao Bo. He needed to grasp the team's situation in real time.

The players lead the way, and the coaches follow.

"Where did you get such a... pervert?!" John has been observing Griezmann all this time.

It has to be said that Griezmann completely conquered everyone in Luton.

In the team's confrontation, Griezmann scored a lot of goals. No matter which position Gao Bo arranged for him to play in the frontcourt, left winger, right winger, nine-and-a-half, or even playing center, this kid can always send the ball in. goal.

Flexible figure, excellent foot technique, and archery is also outstanding!

Gao Bo smiled proudly: "You don't have to doubt my vision, John! This kid will surprise everyone!"

"I'm totally taken aback now..." John said, shaking his head.

Apart from Griezmann, the other new players are also doing very well. .

Now waiting for the game to verify their status.

"Have you made contact with your opponents in the warm-up match?" Gao Bo asked.

There are quite a lot of teams coming to this football center for pre-season training, and it is very easy to contact warm-up opponents.

"Contact now, Tours, a team in the French Second Division!"

Gao Bo nodded. He doesn't really care about any opponents. He needs some warm-up games to let the players slowly enter the feeling of the new season.

......

After all, Campbell was still a little bit overwhelmed by the team's training volume, and he found Gao Bo.

"Uh... Boss..."

Looking at Gao Bo, who is far younger than himself,

Campbell hesitated, but decided to call Gao Bo that way with the other players.

"Sol!! How about it, get used to it these days!"

Gao Bo is happy that the players come to him after training.

"Um... Boss, I think... my training volume is a bit too much." Campbell scratched his head. "If I continue to increase the volume, I'm worried that my knees won't be able to take it."

These days are the team's physical reserve period, so the amount of training is increasing day by day, which is no wonder Campbell is worried.

Gao Bo stopped what he was busy with.

Campbell once suffered a serious knee injury, and he is already thirty-five years old, such a player is indeed not comparable to those young people in terms of physical fitness.

"What if you keep that amount?"

Gao Bo is not a tyrant, and the amount of training is also fixed, it is absolutely impossible to add unlimitedly - the players are all flesh and blood.

Campbell had a troubled look on his face.

"Don't worry, Sol. The increase in training volume is limited. We will reduce physical training in two days and start to increase training with the ball!" Gao Bo patted Campbell on the shoulder.

"Go back and have a good rest, you will be the starter in tomorrow's warm-up match!" Gao Bo said mysteriously: "Maybe you will feel better during the match."

Campbell had to nod and leave. As for the mysterious smile on Gao Bo's face, he did not understand.

But Gao Bo knows why he has a "mysterious smile".

Because Campbell's experience and ability in the back line are trustworthy, as long as he has no problem with physical fitness, he can be used as a first-class central defender!

To solve Campbell's physical problem, Gao Bo naturally thought of the card.

[Competition card (green): Increase physical fitness by 15%, designate a player to use it! 】

Gao Bo still has 100 lottery chances in his hand that are useless, so when he exchanged for a green card, Gao Bo is not heartbroken.

......

In the warm-up match, the better the two teams are, the better.

The game was played at more than three o'clock in the afternoon, in a stadium at the Marbella training base.

Such a warm-up match could not attract many spectators, and Gao Bo dispatched his heart's starter in the first half.

It is still the 442 formation from last season.

The goalkeeper is Schmeichel, Gao Bo chose the partner of Jeffrey and Campbell in the center back position, the left back is Alex Sandro, the right back is Mitchell Piran, and the four midfielders are from left to right. They are Adam White, Drinkwater, Kante, Kevin Keane, and the two forwards at the top are the partners of Vardy and Griezmann.

And when the Tour's starter stood on the field, Gao Bo found that their striker looked familiar.

Isn't that Giroud?

Gao Bo thought of Giroud who played for Arsenal later. The striker was later ridiculed by fans as a "face-slapping" striker. When you think he can't do it, he can always surprise you, but when you think he will definitely enter. Sometimes he can surprise you...

In fact, Giroud's standing ability is still good, and when he was in Ligue 1, Giroud was also a person who took the Ligue 1 golden boot.

Gao Bo was thinking at this time, maybe he can poach Giroud, who is not yet famous, from the Tour Club?

However, Gao Bo quickly dismissed this idea. With so many famous players in the future, he can't become a calf collection addict...

The overall state of Luton in the first warm-up match of the new season is not good.

But Campbell felt that as soon as he stepped on the field, he gained a lot of strength out of thin air, and even his running was a lot lighter.

Is coach Gao Bo's training really so effective?

Campbell was a little overjoyed, he hadn't experienced the feeling of such a steady stream of power coming from his muscles for a long time.

Campbell played very well, he became an iron gate on the back line, no matter what the ball came to him, he always handled it in the most reasonable way.

Gao Bo is also very satisfied, especially for Campbell's performance. If the veteran's physical fitness is no problem, his experience can definitely bring Luton's defense to a higher level.

In this game, he was equipped with a card, the purpose is to add some physical strength to Campbell, so that he can improve his self-confidence.

The result of the final match was one-to-one, with Griezmann and Giroud each contributing to their respective teams.

After the game, Gao Bo specifically found Campbell.

"Saul, do you feel better during the game!"
