Chapter 43 Old Position, Old Opponent

"Beep~beep~beep!"

Three whistles sounded over the Walton Road Stadium, and the entire stadium suddenly burst into boos.

Adelai was so satisfied that he even stood up and applauded the dozen or so die-hard fans who traveled with the team to thank him.

What's the booing?

You set up a bus at the home court for 90 minutes, and I don’t even bother to talk about it!

The penalties we prepared, the red cards we prepared, the little tricks... all of them are of no use, you will lose!

We won this game with integrity and dignity!

The coaches are happy, but Barry Fuller isn't so optimistic.

Even when he thanked the fans on the sidelines, he felt a little absent-minded.

His eyes were firmly fixed on the No. 1 player.

He played the whole game and sent 20 crosses at least, but failed to create a killing opportunity. But this guy sat on the bench until his legs were numb, and did not come off the bench until the 86th minute, and then...

…scored the winning goal with his first touch of the ball!

Who can I talk to to reason with this?

Fuller once again felt a huge sense of crisis.

This time, he was very sure that his position as the team's main force was truly challenged by this newcomer!

At this time, vice-captain Jack Smith hugged him:

"Barry, let's have a drink tonight?"

Back at Wimbledon, it was already late at night.

Fuller and Smith arrived at the nightclub they were most familiar with one after another.

Of course, players in the fourth level drink much more frequently than those in the top league, and their professional self-discipline is only slightly better than that of amateur players.

Even though he was already in the bar, Fuller was still worried.

As he turns 30, he needs a stable job more than ever. Although the weekly salary of this job is only a few hundred pounds, it is the biggest reliance on which his family depends for survival.

Smith drank a glass of wine first, and then lay directly on the sofa:

"Barry, I'm a little convinced."

Fuller was stunned for a moment. He was still in a daze just now and did not understand what his teammates meant.

Smith shrugged:

"That guy only played for half a minute and scored the winning goal. Coupled with his previous performance, our two Mr. Neal (referring to the two coaches) must have regarded him as a treasure."

It's okay that he didn't say it. Now Fuller is even more depressed. He can only raise his head and drink a sip of wine:

"Who says it isn't?"

Seeing his appearance, Smith laughed instead:

"Hahaha."

Fuller glared at him and stood up:

"If you are here specifically to laugh at me, I might as well go home and go to bed early. There will be training tomorrow morning."

Smith quickly held him down:

"Brother, don't worry. I just say one word and you can sleep well tonight."

Fuller hesitantly sat down again:

"What can you do?"

Smith smiled mysteriously:

"Have you forgotten which position the team originally bought this kid to fill?"

Fuller was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face:

"Hahaha, you are right!"

Why did Adlay buy Lee Polo?

Isn’t it because Wimbledon’s own centre-backs are not of sufficient quality?!

Smith raised the bottle and touched it with Fuller:

"Mark is the unbeatable main center back. As for the other spot... we can let that kid compete with Goodman and Kennedy!"

Fuller finally felt that a stone in his heart had disappeared, and he drank a bottle of wine in one go:

"Jack, you are still smarter!"

After completing the game-winner, Lee Polo truly became the coaching staff's darling. Early the next morning, he was called over by Cox for a private meeting.

Cox beamed:

"Do you need me to praise your performance yesterday again?"

Li Polo chuckled:

"Do you need me to thank you for sending me out at the last moment, Mr. Coach?"

Cox waved his hand:

"Okay, let's get down to business. The British Championship will be played away from home in three days against Milton Keynes. If you don't get too hot-headed and kick the shot put with your feet, you should start."

Hearing that he was teasing himself again about his last injury, Li Polo still blushed and quickly issued a military order:

"I promise I will perform well."

Cox nodded and added:

"What the head coach means is that you have to work with Mark for these three days to practice the tacit understanding between the two of you, okay?"

Li Polo was finally stunned, but he soon smiled again:

"No problem, centre-back...this is the position I am most familiar with!"

Tuesday, October 7th.

After nearly 2 months, Lee Polo once again set foot on the mk stadium.

Compared with the first round of the League Cup before, this time he finally became a member of the starting eleven.

Due to the strong strength of the opponent, Adrei arranged a 442 lineup with a balanced offense and defense:

The goalkeepers are still second goalkeeper Werner, Phillips, and Lee Poirot partnering as central defenders, with captains Fuller and Smith on both sides, Porter, Rigg, Boorman, and Reeves as midfielders, Akinfenwa, and Akinfenwa.

Ziz is on the front line.

Milton Keynes has performed very stably in the English League One this season, with 7 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in the first 11 rounds, ranking tied for third in the standings with 22 points, only 3 points behind Bristol City at the top.

It is worth mentioning that they scored 26 goals in 11 league rounds, averaging 2.36 goals per game, making them the team with the highest scoring efficiency in the entire English League One!

Due to their excellent results and very active playing style, Milton Keynes has become one of the popular choices for promotion to the Championship from the English League One this season. Although this game is only a less-watched British Championship, it also attracted 6,000 people.

Many fans came to watch.

However, the mere 6,000 spectators were still sparse in front of the MK Stadium, which has a total capacity of over 30,000, and could not even fill one of the stands.

Standing in the players' tunnel, Li Polo saw a somewhat familiar face.

"Boy, I won't let you look good this time!"

Dele Alli dropped the words viciously.

Li Polo did not miss this great opportunity to harvest leeks, and immediately replied:

"Who are you riding on the horse?"

Ali's eyes suddenly widened!

[Negative sentiment from Dele Alli, 4!]

Li Polo curled his lips.

[It’s still not as good as this big treasure like Januzaj!]

[If Jia Baoyu hears such a provocation, he will definitely contribute 10 experience points immediately! 】

"An amateur player who just won once by chance dares to be so arrogant!"

Ali, who returned to his own queue, was still angry.
