Chapter 23 The End of the Winning Streak

"The stoppage time is about to run out, the game will be over, this should be the last corner of the game. Will Arsenal win the game? Pratt kicks, strikes, Adams fights for a header!"

Before the end of the game, in order to win, the defenders basically ran to the penalty area, trying to score goals to win the game.

"It's such a pity, the ball landed on the turf and bounced off the crossbar, back into the box, Arsenal's last chance! Bergkamp!"

"It was a strong kick, but it hit the plane. The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game! They got a draw! I think maybe that's what Coventry were supposed to do? No shots on goal, not only that, but the possession ratio of the two teams reached 71%: 29% horror difference. But they did take a point at Highbury!"

"37 shots! Arsenal, who took 37 shots, didn't score a single goal! Unfortunately, they were tied by their opponents and ended their winning streak."

Counting the European war, Arsenal, which has won 8 games in a row, was finally frozen by Coventry.

In this match, Shao Bo exhausted all means. Except that he did not expect the opponent to be so tenacious before the match and did not use prop cards, he used all available methods.

Maybe the opponent is determined to take a point at Highbury, maybe it's because the physical strength and state of the players have not returned to their best after a week of double matches.In any case, they did not continue to win and went all the way.

Shao Bo, who heard the final whistle, walked into the tunnel with a livid face, but after sitting in the locker room for a while, he realized that he couldn't do this.He's the head coach and everyone is watching.If his condition is not good, it will greatly affect the mentality of the players and affect the next game.

At least so far they are undefeated, isn't that great?Besides, the opponent used this kind of iron bucket formation with a bus to deal with him, which at least proved that everyone has valued themselves. Unlike the previous games, they all thought that Arsenal was lucky, but most of them underestimated the enemy and lost.

Shao Bo, who had regained his smile, welcomed the players back, and after comforting them, Shao Bo had to respect the custom and invite the head coach of the opposing team to have a drink.However, although Shao Bo, who did not win the game, would not show embarrassment to the opponent, he also secretly played a trick by adding water to the opponent's wine.

Anyway, these are provided by the home coach, and he can do whatever he wants.Although there was a problem with the drink, the head coach of Coventry still didn't say anything.

Although he played ugly, he finally grabbed a point from Arsenal.Once you get a point, you don't care about this kind of petty trouble with children.After all, Shao Bo's too young identity will eventually make people unconsciously despise him.

0:0闷平对手的他们同时丢掉了破掉主场连胜纪录和俱乐部连胜纪录的希望，只能重新开始。虽然10轮比赛8胜1平1负的战绩相当不错，但是这也不能让他们安坐在联赛第一的宝座上。

The second-ranked Newcastle has 7 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, only 3 points away from Arsenal.It is possible that in one game, the first position will be reversed.

What about Manchester United?They have slipped to No.36 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses.Although Sir Alex's "provocation" seems to have affected Arsenal led by Shao Bo, they themselves are not up to date.And want to fight for the championship?And Newcastle ahead.

Speaking of which, Shao Bo was the most depressed person.Fortunately, Shao Bo has won many victories without using prop cards, which provides a considerable strategic space for the latter part of the season, and the hope of the double crown has greatly increased.

According to the winning streak during this period, the system has obtained a lot of extra energy, and the system upgrade will be completed soon.

How fast is soon, Shao Bo asked.Just wait for the system upgrade and play with new functions.

"If you win the double this season, the system will be upgraded by next season."

Hearing this, Shao Bo was not in a hurry anymore, anyway, there is still more than half a year left.What Shao Bo really cares about is the mentality of the players.After winning multiple games in a row, it is nothing to be afraid of being tied suddenly. I am afraid that if the players' mentality is unstable, they will not be able to win the ball they should win.

Just like the Gunners who were unbeaten in 49 games, they still led Manchester United by a large margin in the 04-05 season, but after the undefeated shattered, the mentality of the players was extremely unstable. Give up the championship to your opponent.

However, Shao Bo was also a little paranoid. At that time, the Gunners were already under heavy pressure to set a new record, and each game had to spend several times their usual energy.Anyone who has experienced the Chinese college entrance examination knows that it is often heard that some students perform abnormally or even faint in the examination room because of the excessive pressure of the college entrance examination?

It's the same on the pitch.When you are not in the state, if you really lose, you will lose a lot and collapse directly.

Fortunately, the team led by Shao Bo is still a group of rough old men. They like to drink, speak foul language, and their daily work and rest are irregular, but they don't have much psychological pressure.This kind of people has a name in later generations, and the definition given to them on the Internet is a group of forgetful foodies.

Of course they were happy when they won consecutively, but they were also quite depressed when they lost.But as long as they win again, they will forget the unhappiness in the past and continue to play happily.

On the night when the game was tied, the players collectively invited your head coach Shao Bo to drink and relax.At the bar, though, Tony Adams refused Dixon's glass and asked for a glass of juice.Looking at the weird eyes of everyone, he smiled helplessly and announced one thing - he was going to quit drinking.

Shao Bo pretended to be enlightened and said that the reason for Arsenal's loss in this game was all here.The captain had just been away from the company for many years of alcohol, which led to his poor state and abnormal performance.

Looking at the astonished teammates and Shao Bo's "surprised" expression.Adams pulled out a book from his bag, titled Addiction.Passing the book to his teammates, Adams continued to explain that this was his decision after a long talk with head coach Shao Bo.Shao Bo encouraged him to write this book.

At this time, the players wanted to understand why the head coach always felt that something was wrong today.They clamored for the captain and the coach to talk about the details.

The leader of the locker room, Arsenal's captain Adams is not yet 30, and the head coach Shao Bo is even younger, he is only in his early 20s.

Shao Bo intentionally got close to the players, and didn't deliberately put on airs, so after the players got to know him well, they didn't care much about the rules between these players and coaches.Of course, Shao Bo doesn't care about these things, he only cares about whether the team listens to his command during training and games.

After getting Shao Bo's permission, Adams talked to the players about the long conversation he had with Shao Bo.

It turned out that Shao Bo just finished his first game, that is, after going to Leicester City, all Arsenal players went to the bar to celebrate, and everyone drank a lot of wine.

If I drink too much, I always want to go to the bathroom.There was one time when Shao Bo also went to "empty his body" and found Adams throwing up there.Shao Bo, who kept this matter in mind silently, called Adams to the office after training the next day.

At that time, Shao Bo placed several drinks in the office.There are Chinese green tea, British black tea, coffee, and several kinds of wine.Shao Bo first talked with Adams about the vomiting he saw Adams in the bathroom yesterday.

Of course, Shao Bo was very euphemistic.On the one hand, as a Chinese, he is used to this way of speaking; on the other hand, he respects this player who is dedicated to Arsenal.When Arsenal in later generations are always ridiculed for having many "traitors" who left, the Gunners can still proudly claim that they once had Tony Adams.

He explained to Adams how harmful alcoholism is, although most players in the UK drink alcohol, and Arsenal is the most serious club among them.But that shouldn't stop Arsenal from being the first Alcoholics Club.

Alcoholism can be devastating to an athlete's career.Shorten the professional life of the players and reduce the players' field status.Just like Adams vomited in the bathroom yesterday, this will definitely affect the next day's training or competition.

Shao Bo, who didn't have much authority at the time, decided to proceed step by step. First, everyone was not allowed to drink alcohol the day before the game, and they should not drink too much in normal times.Slowly increase the requirements, so as to avoid intensifying conflicts in the locker room and avoiding the players' resistance to the head coach who came by air.

Shao Bo first used Adams as a breakthrough, if the captain can take the lead.The whole team will be relatively easy to manage.

In order to make it easier for Adams to quit drinking, Shao Bo recommended several drinks to Adams, including Chinese green tea.

Although the bitter taste made Adams frown, Shao Bo secretly laughed.But he still understood Shao Bo's kindness.

Shao Bo also tried his best to have a long talk with Adams.

"Tony, how did you start drinking? A lot of people drink too, but not to the point of binge drinking. I like drinking too, you see."

Shao Bo pointed to the various wine bottles in the office, which he bought in the supermarket.The kind I have drank before.

"I like drinking very much. There is nothing shameful in drinking. There are thousands of flavors of wine. As a foodie, of course I have to try all kinds of flavors. But no matter how delicious the food is, we'd better not If you eat too much, there will always be another delicacy that you need to keep in your stomach."

Although Adams doesn't quite understand the meaning of "foodie", he is similar to a gourmet, right?Most of the players were not well-educated. Adams later learned to write poetry, and writing articles caused a sensation in the English football circle.So Adams didn't pay much attention to Shao Bo's words. He said "foodie" in Chinese...
"In addition, you are the captain of the team, the leader of the dressing room, and the baton on the pitch. You have to take the lead, not only for us at Arsenal, think about it, you are also the captain of the British national team. How much is England now? Are the players drinking too much? If you can take the lead in the club and the national team, will it improve the team's combat effectiveness to a higher level? Make the overall football environment in England better?"

At this moment, Shao Bo used various principles such as the responsibilities that should be borne by a member of the club to stimulate Adams' sense of national honor.

Adams, who was sitting on the sofa at the time, was very touched, and drank the black tea on the table—he still felt that Chinese green tea was too bitter, so he chose the black tea that had been popular in Britain for many years, moistened his throat, and promised Shao Bo that he would never drink again. .

Shao Bo said that there is no need to go so fast.Quitting alcohol is a long process.Although the professional league has requirements for them to recover their physical condition quickly.However, if you do not follow scientific and reasonable methods, you will not succeed in quitting alcohol, and it will also have a great impact on your body.

Shao Bo returned to his desk and dug out a document from the drawer, which was a scientific alcohol cessation plan that he asked the system to sort out.The primary stage lasts about a month.Shao Bo also suggested that if Adams has any ideas, he can help publish them in a book, which can help more British players.

Adams, who thought it was so good, readily agreed.

······
The "Addiction" in his hand is a sample draft made by the publishing house.It was delivered to him just this morning.It was also this book that prompted him to decide never to touch alcohol again.
