Chapter 68: It's Not That Enemies Don't Gather Together
Luton's historic fifth round of the FA Cup, which made the team's veterans John and Mel cried.
The players were also very happy. They celebrated the victory with the Luton fans who came to the away game. The captain Kevin Keane took off his shirt and threw it into the stands. Under the booing of the fans, the old captain had shorts and socks. The sneakers were also thrown up together, causing a scream in the visitors stand.
When the players return to the locker room, people can only see a group of muscular men with different skin colors wearing various underwear and bare feet...
Gao Bo is also very happy, but he did not participate in the celebration of the players, he needs to attend the press conference after the game.
But when he gets here, his mood is not so good.
"Mark Hughes said they will bring in several players in the winter window, including Adam White. What do you think of this?"
In front of the press conference room, a BBC reporter asked. Normally, big newspapers like the BBC rarely pay attention to small teams like Luton...
Gao Bo was expressionless. He stared at the reporter for a while, then picked up the mineral water bottle on the desktop, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip, then coughed twice and cleared his throat.
The reporters under the stage were very excited. Some of them picked up paper and pen to record the key points of Gao Bo's words. Some simply took out their mobile phones and turned on the cameras, ready to record directly and get the first-hand information.
It seems that Gao Bo is preparing to respond to this transfer incident. No matter what he says, these reporters have news to write about.
Sure enough, Gao Bo took the microphone, and he even stood up.
The news reporter who had just questioned the audience was very excited. It seemed that Luton's head coach was about to say something earth-shattering. He even stood up and looked at his expression. It would definitely not be a good thing!
Roy Zou in the audience raised her brows. She is now the reporter of the "Hatbuyers" newspaper specializing in Luton team news. After all, the audience of this newspaper mostly overlaps with Luton fans, so Luton news It occupies a considerable page in the "Hatbuyer" newspaper.
Looking at Gao Bo's expression, it looks like he is going to go crazy, which is definitely not a good thing. Roy is a little worried. In England, if a team is caught in the whirlpool of the media, it is hardly a good thing...
Gao Bo stood up and glanced at the reporters in the audience.
"Ahem..."
The reporters under the stage were all shocked when they heard this sound.
coming! !
Let's talk, say it over the fire, the better! !
The expressions of the reporters were like wolves and tigers, but Gao Bo didn't seem to be anxious, he straightened his collar, and then said casually.
"I announce that the press conference is over!"
The reporters under the stage were shocked, but when Gao Bo disappeared at the door, they remembered to protest...
However, the press officer at Preston's home stadium can only spread his hands, expressing that he can't help...
"噗呲..."
The reporters who were still in the crash state suddenly heard this voice, and they turned their heads to look.
Roy Saul, the instigator, sat down quickly.
Hmm... I am also a reporter...
I am standing with you.
Roy's face is like the enemy...
...
Even if Gao Bo did not respond, the media will not have news to write.
Regarding Gao Bo's behavior at the press conference, the media interpreted and analyzed Gao Bo's mental journey...
On the second day of this game, Gao Bo received the official offer from Manchester City.
Three million list?
Gao Bo sneered. He threw the other party's quotation on the table and ignored it.
"We don't need to reply!"
Gao Bo said this to his assistants.
Gao Bo said so and did so. After Manchester City made an offer to Luton, the news fell to nothing. They waited and couldn't wait for any reply from Luton...
Adam's contract is three years away, and recently the club is still negotiating with him to sign a new contract. It's worth mentioning that Adam's agent has been fired by him...
But Luton's refusal to reply does not mean that the media has not received it at all.
"Yes, we made an offer!"
At a press conference after Manchester City's home game against Sheffield United in the fourth round of the FA Cup, Mark Hughes spoke outright in response to questions from reporters.
Manchester City also had the task of the FA Cup game the day after the FA Cup game in Luton. Mark Hughes's team played against the British crown team Sheffield United at home. Manchester City beat their opponents two to one and also made the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Although Mark Hughes's team brought in Robinho, Sabaletta, and Kompany in the summer transfer window, Manchester City did not perform well in the Premier League. After the 23rd round of the league, Mark Hughes' team can only score 25 points in the Premier League, ranking 12th in the league standings, and 25 points behind Manchester United, which is the leader.
The league is basically nothing to expect, but the boss has spent so much money, I have to hear it.
So Mark Hughes is now putting his hopes on the FA Cup. If he can win the FA Cup, this season will finally have an explanation. So even though they are facing a championship team, Manchester City is still the main force, winning hard at home Although Mark Hughes led Manchester City's results are not ideal, but the Middle East Local boss Chief Mansor and Chairman Al Mubarak will still give Hughes absolute support. Yes, financial support.
According to media reports, although it is only a winter transfer window, the transfer funds that Mark Hughes can use are 100 million pounds!
Manchester City aim to win the Brazilian star Kaka this winter! And Manchester City's prey also includes Blackburn player Santa Cruz, former Chelsea defender Bridge, West Ham fast Mar Bellamy, Arsenal's out-of-favor center defender Chloe Touré and Everton all-around defender Lescott It is the acquisition target of Manchester City. In addition, Mark Hughes is also interested in buying Newcastle's Irish national team goalkeeper, 32-year-old Shay, with 10 million pounds.
Of course, Adam White, who has recently gained fame, is also their target.
...
Gao Bo ignored the harassment of the media, and it is not what he cares about how much Manchester City can spend to buy people. As for boss David Morton, Gao Bo persuaded him with only one very simple reason: "If you sell Adam now, you can only get three million, and in two years, his price increase can be Ten times this basis!"
David Morton was easily persuaded, now with three million and thirty million two years later, this choice is still easy to make. In football, David Morton has always regarded Gao Bo's words as an authority.
Although Gao Bo doesn't care about the news of Manchester City, his team seems to be able to get in touch with Manchester City recently...
After entering the fifth round of the FA Cup, the draw result came out very quickly.
Manchester City! !
Luton will host the Premier League team Manchester City in the fifth round!
Isn't it true that friends don't get together.
