Chapter 298 We Are Here for the Champions
In the final preparations before the start of the game, Flores repeated the tactical points of this game to his players again!
"Don't be fooled by their last game against Hamburg! In the final analysis, this team is still a team with more defense than offense. Their defense is characterized by intensive positioning and tough confrontation in the midfield! We need to pay special attention to this aspect! Don't fall into the trap of fighting them physically. Our advantage lies in technology! It lies in our control!! Control the ball at our feet!"

After Flores took office, he emphasized the typical Spanish football characteristics of midfield control and ball possession in Atletico Madrid. For this reason, he even gave up players like Raul Garcia.

"The first goal is very important! But pay special attention to Luton's counterattack!!!"

Flores circled the three forwards Griezmann, Vardy and Adam!
"These three are Luton's main offensive points. In this game, they will also use the teamwork and speed between these three to seek counterattacks!! So we must not easily give them a chance to counterattack in the midfield! Don't worry! Even if you can't score at the beginning, don't worry, time is on our side! Use the pass and control of the midfield to slowly wear down their energy!"

Flores continued to emphasize his tactical thinking.

At the same time, in Luton's locker room, Gao Bo is also making the final mobilization!

"What we should say and practice these days has already been said and practiced!"

Gao Bo looked at the players sitting in a circle around him and said.

"Here's their starter today! Look at their frontcourt."

Gao Bo pointed to the names in front of him.

"Diego Forlan, Aguero, Reyes, Simão... It can be said to be star-studded!"

"However, I believe that my players are not the kind of cowards who are weak when they see stars!"

Gao Bo's words echoed in the locker room, and the chests of the players puffed up.

"The most important thing for us in this game is defense!! Atlético Madrid is obviously a team that has always been more successful than defending!! As long as we withstand their offense, we will seek opportunities to counterattack during the game!! Even if there is only one time!!!"

Gao Bo stretched out his finger!

"We can kill them!!!"

The players have no doubts about Gao Bo's words, which is the self-confidence they have gradually developed in this season's Europa League.

"Defense is the most important thing! It is to defend both sides of them!!"

Gao Bo was pointing to the positions of Reyes and Simao on both sides.

"Reyes and Simao! These are two wing assaulters!! Adam! Anthony! Pay attention and return to the defensive position!"

Adam and Griezmann nodded.

"The midfielder should also pay attention to movement and fill the gaps on the wing at any time!"

The three midfielders also nodded.

"Fran and Aguero in the middle are the biggest threat! In addition to keeping an eye on these two defenders, the most important thing is to divide their connection with the midfield and both sides!!"

Gao Bo pointed to several key areas.

"Promptly defend their players with the ball! Make them unable to pass the ball easily! Make them feel annoyed! Make them impatient!!"

"Once there is a chance to counterattack! Immediately hit the wing! They press the wing very high, which will put a lot of defensive pressure on us, but this is also an opportunity!! The space on the wing must be used well!"

After Gao Bo emphasized the tactical details, he began to walk among the players.

"Guys, we're in the final of the Europa League! We're in the final of the Europa League as a First Division team! It's not easy and it says a lot about how successful we've been working this season. But...is it enough to get to the final?"

"No! Far is not enough!"

"We still need a champion!!!"

"The runner-up is the biggest loser. We have worked so hard to come here, to this stadium! We are definitely not here for the runner-up!"

"If we lose, maybe many years later, the media and fans will talk about our experience this season. But don't think it's a good thing!"

"Because it means that people will be talking about our failures in the next few years, even ten years!"

"We'll be called 'the most regrettable loser' or something."

"But! To hell with these titles!"

"Even if it's being talked about, or even hated! I don't want to be the most famous loser! Because it will make us appear to be the most pitiful group of people in this world!"

"Because in the future, people will point to our noses and say: Hey, are you the First Division team that lost in the Europa League final?"

"This is not the result I want!!"

"I just want to win!!! We just want to be champions!!!"

"We came to this stadium and eliminated Ajax one after another, eliminated Juventus, eliminated Wolfsburg, eliminated Hamburg, and now we are only one step away from success!"

"I'm tired of hearing words like "third tier" and "League One" these days. We are going to get this championship now! We need to use this championship to get home at high speed! We Luton are the champions of the Europa League!"

"Today, we have such an excellent opportunity! We are here, on this stage that belongs to us!"

"Running into the final and becoming a foil for others will not happen to us! We are here for the European championship!!"

The players were very excited when they heard it. They sat upright one by one, with their waists straight.

Gao Bo's eyes slowly swept across them one by one.

In front of each player, he paused for a moment before looking at the next player.

Kevin Keane!

Sol Campbell!
Jeffrey!
Alex Sandro!
Mitchell Piran!

N'Golo Kante!

Danny Drinkwater!
Antoine Griezmann!

Adam White!
Jamie Vardy!
Like a general inspecting his soldiers, Gao Bo looked at all his players.

The main players, substitutes, and other players who were not included in the squad and were asked by Gao Bo to come to this stadium together.

Even players who are not on the squad are still part of the team.Even if you can't enter the bench, you have to sit in the stands and advance and retreat with the team together!

The locker room was very quiet except for the sound of the players breathing.

After looking around at his players, Gao Bo clenched his fists and said loudly.

"We were all nobody at one time, and now we are just one step away from becoming a big star!!"

"Win the championship!! Then become famous!!"
