Chapter 142: The new season's first position

Chapter 143 The new season lineup

　　 "The team's lineup is too young..." Gao Bo looked at the list of players in his hand. This is a team that is really too young. Among the current signings, the oldest Schmeichel is only 23 years old.

　　 "Maybe we can bring in some veterans?" Lin Sen asked. Lin Sen has also returned, and during this time he has been assisting Gao Bo with the transfer.

　　 Gao Bo does have this plan, introducing one or two experienced veterans, especially on the back line.

　　 "Let's see if there are players with rich defensive experience these days. We still have time." Gao Bo is not in a hurry about this.

　　 "Maybe we can try to sign Campbell!" John said.

　　 "Which Campbell?!" Gao Bo suddenly became interested.

　　 "Sol Campbell! His contract with Portsmouth has expired and is now a free agent. If we invite him, we don't need to spend a penny on the transfer fee."

　　Sol Campbell?

　　 Gao Bo immediately remembered who he was. This is a former England international who has played for Tottenham and Arsenal. Gao Bo is still very impressed with this player.

　　 There are not many players who have played in these two rival clubs. This Sol Campbell even became the captain of Tottenham Hotspur.

But in 2001, Sol Campbell's contract with Tottenham expired, and after that he made a move that made Tottenham fans grit their teeth-he decided to defect to another club in North London, Tottenham Hotspur Arsenal!

　　In various media selection lists like the "Top Ten Renegade", basically Campbell and Figo are definitely inevitable.

　　 Campbell moved freely from Tottenham to rival Arsenal in the same city, which caused an uproar in English football. But after this transfer, Campbell grew into one of the greatest central defenders in the Premier League, won two Premier League titles and two FA Cup titles with the Gunners, and was selected as the best team in the 2002 World Cup. As a defender, Campbell has excellent physical fitness, outstanding confrontation ability, and a great header.

　　 The veteran who was born in all directions in 1977 is now thirty-five years old. According to Gao Bo's impression, the veteran seems to have been in the low-level league for a few years, and finally played in Newcastle for two years before retiring.

　　 This is a central defender who is very experienced and capable. The only thing worth worrying about is his physical condition.

　　 Gao Bo thought about it for a while, but finally made a decision: "Let someone contact him, we need his experience in the central defender position!!!"

　　 Campbell's physical condition is indeed worth worrying about. After all, he is a veteran in his thirties, but Gao Bo is not too worried about this problem-in the big deal, he will use cards to improve his physical strength and physique for the veteran.

　　 A central defender with rich experience and worry-free stamina is definitely a great help to the team!

　　...

　　 Sol Campbell gladly accepted Luton's invitation. For Campbell, there are not many opportunities at the end of his career. Luton has had a lot of games this season, and Campbell can at least get a lot of playing opportunities.

　　 Luton gave a one-year veteran contract with a weekly salary of 10,000 pounds.

　　 Sol Campbell, who came to vote freely, happily signed the contract.

　　 "I'm glad you can choose my team, Sol!"

　　 It seems that Gao Bo is still in a very good mood when taking pictures with the jerseys on both sides. Being able to get an experienced central defender for free is a great help to Luton's defense this season.

　　 "Haha, I really didn't expect that at my age there would be a chance to play in the European Championship." Campbell grinned.

At Portsmouth last season, he played 33 times in the Premier League and three FA Cup appearances, and still maintained a good form. As a result, after the end of the season, Portsmouth did not give the veteran Submit the renewal contract.

　　 But Campbell did not expect that he immediately found a job again. Although this time he entered the English Premier League from the Premier League, Campbell, who is already thirty-five years old, has nothing more.

　　...

　　 The busy transfer operation soon ended. After Gao Bo showed up with a few new players, he announced that Luton's summer transfer window was closed!

　　 Luton moved to Alex Sandro, Griezmann, Schmeichel, Karl Jenkinson, and defender veteran Sol Campbell this summer.

　　 transferred five players, and only Charlie Austin was the main player.

　　 In this way, the team's basic framework for the new season still uses the framework of the previous season, with only reinforcement in some positions.

After qualifying for the Europa League, Gao Bo carefully reviewed the internal personnel of the team, and then made a judgment: his team does not need to add too many personnel, the current new players introduced are already Enough to raise the team's lineup to a level.

　　 All purchase plans this summer are based on this season. Introduced five players, moved a main force, increased the thickness of the team's lineup, there will be no waste of hoarding players.

　　 In other words, Luton no longer has to look around in the transfer market. Gao Bo's team lineup is basically determined.

　　 For the goalkeeper, this season Kobo decided to use Schmeichel as the main force, while Claude will be the second goalkeeper. However, as the hero of last season, Claude will not be completely in the cold. Gao Bo has already talked to Claude, Schmeichel will be the main goalkeeper in the league and the Europa League, and Claude It is responsible for other cups, the English Championship, the League Cup, and the FA Cup.

In terms of central defenders, last season's main central defender combination was Jeffrey and George Parker, but Campbell was newly added this season. If Campbell's physical condition is safe, Gao Bo will still trust this veteran at central defenders. After all, it is a more critical position, and Jeffrey and George are about to compete for a main position.

　　Professional football is like that, competition is everywhere.

The left-back is naturally Alex Sandro, and the right-back Gao Bo is a bit hesitant. For Carl Jenkinson, he still needs to investigate. After all, Carl is only 17 years old now-to be precise, he still has It took a while to turn seventeen years old.

The lineup of the midfielder did not change last season. Drinkwater and Kanter, as well as Kevin Keane, Adam sometimes also used as a midfielder and Gao Bo also from the youth training Camp promoted two players to the first team, namely Joseph Andel, who is 190 centimeters tall. This is a defensive midfielder. He can also play a cameo as a central defender. He is 20 years old this year and one can play. The defensive midfielder can also play a midfielder 19-year-old young man named Nick Rose.

　　 At the forward line, after Charlie Austin left, the main force on the forward line became Vardy and Griezmann. However, sometimes Adam can also play the forward position. With Matt on the bench, the forward line is quite sufficient.

　　 On June 30, Gao Bo announced that the team would no longer take any action in the transfer market. This season's transfer window will end for Luton.

　　 And the team's roster Gao Bo has probably drawn up.

　　 Goalkeepers: Schmeichel (12), Claude Rondo (1), Dean Burley (25)

Defenders: Carl Jenkinson (22), Mitchell Piran (2), George Parker (3), Jeffrey (5), Sol Campbell (21), Alex Sandro (6) ), Solo Davis (24).

Midfielders: Kevin Keane (10), Drinkwater (8), N'Golo Kanter (4), Lewis Emmanuel (18), Hassan Ali (23), Adam -White (11), Joseph Andel (17), Nick Rose (25)

　　 Forwards: Jamie Vardy (9), Anthony Griezmann (7), Matt Schmidt (19)

　　 Seeing this list, Gao Bo is still very satisfied. From the quality of the main players, he is fully qualified for the Europa League. And the number is not too redundant, most players have a chance to enter the game.

　　 For the next season, Gao Bo is full of confidence.
