Football's Number One Madman

Chapter 50 Individualism Is Necessary

As a professional player, the most painful thing is not being able to play the game.

But there are exceptions.

For example, Dembele of Barcelona and Bale of Real Madrid may think that playing games and golf is the meaning of life.

But for Li Polo, who just wants to learn from Vardy's struggle, it is really torture to be only a spectator for three consecutive games.

Especially... In the next three games, the three opponents are all top-ranked favorites!

On October 10, in the twelfth round of the league, Wimbledon played against the third-ranked Burleigh at home.

In the face of menacing opponents, Adres did not dare to be careless in the slightest. Wimbledon played offensive football at home with the main force, and finally relied on the three goals of Akinfenwa, Dubis and Porter to win 3 :2 scored the victory.

Lisanna, who made a special trip back to spend the weekend with him, comforted him:
"Don't worry too much, hasn't the team won yet?"

Li Poluo glared at her:
"Are you comforting me?"

Lisanna, who failed to comfort verbally, was not discouraged, and instead used practical actions to comfort her frail boyfriend, letting him temporarily forget about the suspension.
-
Li Poluo suddenly fell into a state of contradiction.

As a professional player, he certainly hopes that his team can continue to win, and it is best to lock the league championship as soon as possible.

But as a player who has just debuted, he hopes that the team will not play too well during his absence.

Like Shea's apprehension before, every player will have this psychology when he is absent from the game for a long time:
"What if the team doesn't need me?"

Fortunately, there are only two games left in Li Poluo's suspension, so he doesn't need to worry for too long.

A week later, on October 10th, in the 18th round of the League Two, Wimbledon, with all their main players, fell into a bitter away game.

They fought fiercely with the second-ranked Wycombe Wanderers for 90 minutes, but they were still unable to conquer the opponent's goal. Instead, they conceded two goals in the second half and scored 0:2, their second defeat of the season.

Li Poluo, who watched the live broadcast in the apartment, was a little uncontrollably joyful:

"At least, the head coach will miss me, right?"

Adele does miss his fierce defense. Although Goodman, who plays in rotation, is close to 190 tall, he is obviously two grades behind Li Polo in terms of defensive hardness and ball path prediction. In this strong dialogue Among them, it is impossible for Fuller, Phillips, Smith and other defensive partners to wipe his ass all the time.

随着温布尔登10月22日与第14轮联赛的对手、排名第六的普利茅斯0:0闷平之后，阿德雷终于有些坐不住了。

The head coach convened his team for an in-depth analysis to find out why the points were lost.

Morale is very high.

Injuries, nothing at all.

The atmosphere is extremely harmonious.

Tactical play, gradually adapt.

Top management, support as always.

The main goalkeeper has played steadily since his comeback.

They studied for an afternoon, but they could only find one reason:
"Lee Polo is suspended?"

After reaching a conclusion, Adrey shook his head with difficulty:
"No, I don't believe it!"

Cox also presented scientific evidence:

"The last time we lost 2:4 to Newport, Lee Polo not only played the whole game, but also scored a goal, but it didn't change the result at all!"

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally persuaded themselves to reach an agreement:
"These two games are the system bureau!"

The result of one loss and one draw did not trouble Adre for too long.

Because Wimbledon once achieved a double-digit lead, even though they lost 5 points in the past two rounds, they still lead the standings with 34 points, while Burton and Wycombe Wanderers tied for second Both have only 28 points.
-
When the calendar finally turned the page on October 10, Lee Polo finally ended the state of living like a year.

In the training session on October 10, everyone could clearly feel that this young man seemed to have encountered a happy event, and he started running a little lightly, as if he would fly into the clouds at any time.

The never serious roommate Reeves even joked:
"You are so happy, are you going to be a father?"

Li Poluo rolled his eyes, wanting to break his dog's head with a punch:
"Can't you just congratulate me on my comeback?"

Reeves put his arms around his neck, smiled nonchalantly and said:
"Hey man, this little guy doesn't really think we lose because he's suspended?"

Half of the teammates in the locker room laughed.

Although they all gradually recognized Lee Polo's ability, they believed even more that football is a team sport!
Are Ibrahimovic, Lewandowski and Bell strong enough?

Isn't the national team they lead a match?
Are Ronaldo and Messi strong enough?

Haven't Portugal and Argentina waited more than ten years for an Intercontinental Cup champion?

——Oh no, Argentina in 2014 has not yet won the Copa America.

Lee Polo couldn't help but want to question them:

"Haven't you guys heard of the protagonist's halo?"

While chatting and laughing, two coaches walked in.

Adrey clapped the schedule in his hand:

"Three days later, our opponent is Tranmere. They are at the bottom of the table and there is a lot of pressure to avoid relegation, so they must be very tenacious. We better be prepared."

Cox began by describing the characteristics of the opponent:

"Tranmere scored 14 goals in the first 11 rounds, ranked second to last out of 24 teams, conceded 18 goals, ranked 12th, obviously, relative to attacking, their defense is not bad. And. From the point of view of formation, their midfielders have some strength, and we also need to strengthen the competition in the midfield..."

After talking for more than ten minutes, he talked about the opponent's positions before he asked the most critical question:
"Because there is still the League Cup to be played in the middle of next week, we will carry out a certain degree of rotation in the game against Tranmere, including Akinfenwa, Phillips, Boorman and Smith."

The four players named were all veterans over 35 years old, and Boorman, the oldest, was [-] years old. After hearing the coach's arrangement, they did not have any dissatisfaction.

After all, they are the absolute main force of the team. Let them rest when playing weak teams in the league, of course, to perform better in the League Cup.

However, Li Poluo didn't care about the mood of these people at all, he only wanted to play in the game after resting for more than half a month!
Probably sensing his anxiety, Adrey glanced at him:
"Young man, do you dare to provoke the fans on the opposite side in the future?"

Li Poluo immediately shook his head:
"Unless the opponent is Milton Keynes, I will never provoke!"

Adrey smiled and nodded:

"Then I will give you a chance. You will start this game."

Li Polo nodded like a chicken pecking at rice:
"OK, Mr. Coach!"

Adrey glanced at the schedule, and added a little hesitantly:
"I actually want you to play in the League Cup, after all, Sheffield United is much stronger..."

Lee Polo punched himself in the chest, and confidently expressed his position to the head coach:
"Don't worry, I'm in good shape now, even if I play a game every day, there will be no problem!"
