Football's Number One Madman

Chapter 283 Do you dare to enter 10?

"You don't seem to have much choice, Gareth."

That's what assistant coach Steve Holland told Southgate at his training ground at St George's Park.

The latter shrugged his shoulders:

"Then let's watch after the game."

This is an intra-team group match, only 40 minutes, but Lee Polo has already scored four goals!

His opponent, from the substitute Jagielka, was replaced by the main defender Stones, but no matter who it was, he couldn't stop his leap!

Whether it's Walker's diagonal cross, Sterling's side cross, or Rooney's free kick, he can convert it into a very threatening shot!
Even if Henderson's through pass from the center was not accurate enough, he completed a shot with his speed, which made Joe Hart break out in a cold sweat!
【Ding~~~】

He even completed an attribute upgrade in this training match!
[Shooting: 43→44! 】

[Ball control: 59 → 60! 】

Looking at the [Ball Control] attribute that he just passed, Li Boluo smiled gratifiedly.

【This time, it's finally not an upgrade triggered by Lisanna! 】

[This is the result of accumulating over time! 】
-
"Now, let me announce the starting 11 list for tomorrow."

After the confrontation, Holland gathered the players together and began to check everyone's status:
"Wayne Rooney, Joe Hart, Gary Cahill, Danny Rose, Kyle Walker, John Stones, Jordan Henderson, Eric Dyer, Raheem Sterling, Adam Lallana, Polo Lee."

He remembered something again, and made a special exhortation to Li Poluo:
"Remember to ask me to choose a jersey number, and I will submit the registration for you."

Lee Polo nodded, he wanted to choose number 1.

A mere Joe Hart, who can't be a starter in Manchester City, dare to compete with me?

When the assistant coach announced the list, Southgate stood silently at the back, silently observing the expressions of all the players.

He doesn't need to talk too much.

Even if he mobilizes with enthusiasm, it may not have any effect.

After all, Southgate today is only the interim coach, "fire squad leader" and transitional coach of this national team. The FA has not decided to hand over "the most historical and traditional football team in the world" to itself.

So some players actually didn't take him seriously.

For example, the half-bald fat captain, although he didn't directly express it, it is almost known that the Manchester United captain doesn't like Southgate at all!

But this is also normal, what qualifications does Southgate have?
In the player era, he can only be regarded as a decent defender, and the biggest team he has played for is only Middlesbrough.The highest honor he has ever won is the League Cup.

This kind of championship, even some fourth-level league teams, can win it!
When it came to the coaching period, he was even more mediocre. He coached Boro for 3 seasons, and his winning rate was even less than 30%!

In the England youth team, the winning rate is as high as 81%, but that is all due to the talent blowout of the Three Lions. What does it have to do with him as a head coach?
Lee Polo wants to prove himself in the national team, and Southgate does the same!
-
"Uh... you want to choose number 1?"

Holland picked out his ears:

"Although there is no problem, if it comes to the World Cup, I am afraid that the No. 1 will have to be handed over to the goalkeeper, because this does not comply with FIFA's regulations. So..."

He didn't finish the sentence, but he understood everything.

With Lee Polo's current strength, he is destined not to be just a passer-by for the national team. Fixing a number early will be more conducive to establishing his status in the national team.

Lee Polo accepted his suggestion and glanced at the list of numbers:
"number 9?"

Holland shrugged:

"That's Sturridge's number, but ... if you play well enough tomorrow, he won't have a chance to play."

Li Poluo raised his eyebrows:

"Oh hoo, Coach, I love hearing you talk."

Holland grinned and patted the player on the shoulder:

"Then I look forward to your performance tomorrow!"
-
11 month 11 day.

After a lapse of 18 months, Lee Polo once again set foot on the lawn of Wembley Stadium.

Shuttle running, jumping, passing, sliding tackle...

Through the warm-up activities, Li Poluo is very satisfied with the quality of the turf today.

It is worthy of being the exclusive stadium of the England national team. Even if it is compared with the turf of the Bernabeu and the Nou Camp, it is not inferior in the slightest. It is even more comfortable because of fewer games and careful care.

On such turf, he can jump higher and run faster! -
Only 5 minutes before the start of the game, Lee Polo followed his teammates out of the player channel.

As captain Wayne Rooney was at the head of the queue, Lee Polo was actually still the last player to play.

He glanced at the Scot across the way. The only one who was a bit famous was Fletcher, a midfielder who had played for Manchester United.

——There was originally a well-known right back Andrew Robertson, but he was injured and missed the game before this game.

Two central defenders, one is Grant Hanley, who played for the Championship team (2016-17) Newcastle, worth up to 600 million pounds, and the other is Christopher Bay, who played for the Championship team Ipswich La, a 31-year-old veteran.

Facing these completely unknown opponents, Lee Polo's traditional skills were of little use.

Because he couldn't find any black material at all!
Anyway, I am also the top scorer in La Liga this season, so I have to show my superstar demeanor, right?

So he just said:
"Hi, guys, I'm Li Polo, the number one superstar in La Liga, yes, the superstar who beat Ronaldo and Messi. You must want my jersey and autograph very much. Don't worry, I will contact you after the game. Our staff, I have prepared 11 pieces for you! How are you doing, are you happy?"

He didn't see a happy smiling face.

But he received 11 reminder messages!
So he laughed happily:

"See you on the field!"
-
Hanley: 25 years old, height 188, weight 76, British Championship team, marginal substitute
Bella: 31 years old, height 190, weight 81, a mid-range team in the British Championship, the main force
Li Boluo really didn't know, how could such two central defenders at the British Championship level stop him?
So in the 3rd minute of the start, he received a high-altitude ball sent by Lallana from the left, and then easily knocked away the oncoming Hanley, and directly smashed the thin tall man with the football. goal!

[Negative emotions from Hanli, +36! 】

1: 0!

Only 4 minutes later, Sterling's in-cut shot was blocked out of the bottom line, Rooney took a corner kick from the right, and Li Polo overwhelmed another central defender Vela and easily completed the second header.

[Bella, +28! 】

2: 0!

"It's too simple..."

Southgate on the sidelines froze for a moment, a little disbelieving.

Holland found an excuse for him:
"Probably... because the coaches and players in Scotland don't usually pay much attention to La Liga, right?"

Southgate glanced at him:
"Although I really want to believe you, but... as long as you are a normal football practitioner, it is impossible not to know the existence of Lee Polo!"

In other words, in this world, as long as you pay attention to professional football, you must have heard of Lee Polo's name!

[What if the people in Scotland only watch the Soviet Super League and MLS? 】

Holland was about to force an explanation when he saw Li Polo steal the ball directly from Hanley's feet, then turned around and broke into the penalty area, facing goalkeeper Gordon's face, and directly volleyed!
The 34-year-old goalkeeper Gordon suddenly felt a "thump" in his heart!
He wanted to sacrifice himself to block it, but facing the roaring soccer ball, he subconsciously tilted his head and dodged it!

There was a muffled sound of "Peng", and the net behind him rustled!
3: 0!

[Hanli, +45! 】

[Craig Gordon, +34! 】
-
"Liiiiiiiiiiiii~~~Polooooooo!!"

There were thunderous cheers in the stands at Wembley, and the whole stadium was full of the same name.

Although some teammates were unwilling, they still had to gather together to celebrate Lee Polo's hat-trick.

Southgate and Holland looked at each other in blank dismay.

While applauding, they couldn't help muttering:
"Although the main full-back Robertson failed to play, but...is Scotland so weak now?"

"It's only been 15 minutes, and it's already 3:0. Can't the whole game be in double digits?"
-
Scotland, who had conceded three goals in a row, woke up like a dream. They immediately mobilized heavy troops and began to defend Li Polo strictly.

Li Poluo was indeed caught in a bitter battle surrounded by heavy siege, but this situation lasted less than 10 minutes, and he quickly collapsed because of the foot injury of his midfielder in a fight!
And just 3 minutes after this poor midfielder went off due to injury, Li Boluo scored his third header!

Big Four!
4: 0!
-
Sitting on the bench, Sturridge felt more and more heavy.

This newcomer not only unceremoniously snatched his No. 9 jersey, but also scored four goals like crazy in only 30 minutes!
The starting position of the national team... Can I get it back?
Sturridge took a look at his legs, knees, ankles, heels, thighs, even buttocks...almost every bone and muscle was scarred!
Can such a self compete with that monster?
While Sturridge was still comparing himself and Lee Polo in his mind, Lee Polo received Sterling's right cross at 12 yards and easily pushed the ball into the net!
5: 0!

Before the first half was over, Li Poluo ushered in five blessings!
The last trace of fantasy in Sturridge's heart completely collapsed!
[Coach, don't recruit me in the future! 】

[With this little time, why not let me take a good rest at home! 】

[Negative sentiment from Daniel Sturridge, +5! 】

[Gordon, +55! 】

Assistant coach Holland looked at his leader and asked a difficult question:
"Should you let him continue playing?"

His meaning is very euphemistic:

[Although Scotland and England have always had historical grievances, they are also neighbors of an empire after all. If there is a tragedy, wouldn't it be pretty? 】

Southgate glanced at him, gritted his teeth and said:

"Kick!"

【I'm just a transitional coach now, and I can only feel proud when I win a big game! 】

[Let the bureaucrats of the FA take a look, I am much better than Allardyce! 】

Southgate's eyes turned to the field again:
[Li Poluo, you have the ability... You come up with a double digit! 】

[As long as you can accomplish this goal, let alone Sturridge, even Rooney, I dare to replace him! 】

Rooney, who had just completed a through kick, suddenly felt a chill down his back!
【No, someone is going to kill me! 】
