Not only Ferguson was taken aback, but the Manchester United players were also shocked.
Ferdinand and Vidic exchanged glances, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
They could see very clearly that this number seven player from the opposing team was too agile. Fletcher seemed to have no advantage against him.
"Michael! Go help him out!!!"
Vidic began to direct the midfield defense. After all, Griezmann's position made the two center-backs feel awkward. If they went up to defend, the opponent was positioned too far forward, so they could only let the midfielders participate in the defense.
Carrick nodded. Fletcher alone couldn't handle Griezmann. This was clear from Griezmann's performance just now. This kid is very slippery!
"Keep a close eye on this guy!!"
Carrick and Fletcher said to each other.
The Manchester United fans in the stadium exclaimed, while the Luton fans cheered loudly for Griezmann's performance!
"Beautiful feint!!! This is young Griezmann from France!! Only eighteen years old this year!! Judging from his performance just now, he seems to be another rising star!!" Wrightkinson was in the commentary box, applauding Griezmann's performance.
"Everyone says Wenger has a penchant for young players, but I think this coach Gao Bo is not far behind," Little Redknapp joked.
Gao Bo, on the sidelines, didn't know that Little Redknapp's words had earned him the nickname "pedophile." He was also cheering for Griezmann's performance.
Compared to Adam, Griezmann's abilities were more comprehensive. You know, Griezmann's performance just now was all his own ability. Gao Bo didn't use any designated player cards on Griezmann in this game.
Overall, this was a game mainly focused on defense, so Gao Bo's cards were basically used on the defensive end.
First, two blue cards. These two cards were definitely going to be used. One was to increase the team's interception by 15%, and the other was to increase the counter-attack success rate by 15%!
In fact, Gao Bo also had a blue card exchange ticket, but Gao Bo didn't plan to use it now, because he was still considering which aspect to use this precious blue card on.
Moreover, he hadn't used those lottery opportunities either. He wanted to go for a hundred consecutive draws to test his luck, but in the end, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
As for the individual cards, they were mainly to strengthen the two center-backs.
For Sol Campbell, Gao Bo used the "Stamina Increase 15%" card. After all, this was a very experienced center-back. As long as his stamina was not a concern, he would be a world-class defender.
In this way, Gao Bo's five card slots were basically filled.
Griezmann's shot startled Manchester United, and then, in turn, Manchester United continued to attack Luton's defense.
Luton's formation was very deep, basically retreating to their own half! They were gradually being flattened by Manchester United.
The impact of Manchester United's two wingers was too strong, forcing Luton to shrink their formation to the center.
Rooney was undoubtedly the main target of defense. This Manchester United star, once known as the Gemini with C Ronaldo, was destined to shoulder more responsibility this season after C Ronaldo chose to leave the team and go to Madrid.
Defending Rooney was Jeffrey's task!
From the beginning of the game, Jeffrey had been Stare stare stare stare stare stare ing Rooney!
In the seventh minute of the game, Nani cut inside on the left and then passed the ball to the wing!
Full-back Evra rushed up. Evra glanced at the situation in the penalty area and then sent in a cross.
Berbatov at the near post didn't jump; he just symbolically pulled to the near post and then watched the football fly over his head.
The elegant guy doesn't like heading the ball, probably because he's afraid of messing up his hairstyle.
Rooney in the center didn't have these problems. He rushed in from the outside and then jumped high!
Facing Rooney rushing in from the outside, Jeffrey gritted his teeth and jumped up!
It must be said that Jeffrey's physical fitness and jumping ability are really good. If Sol Campbell, this old bone, were to fight Rooney, it is estimated that Campbell would be crushed by Rooney in a few moves.
However, Jeffrey was still young. He collided with Rooney in the air, and he even jumped a little higher than Rooney, so he headed the ball, and the football went out of the baseline. Then, the two fell to the ground together.
Rooney's fall was quite heavy, while Jeffrey on the other side patted his butt and got up, as if nothing had happened.
This Dutch kid's physical fitness is really tough! Rooney also patted his butt and got up. Although Jeffrey had the upper hand this time, Rooney didn't care. If he had more opportunities like this, he would always succeed once.
Rooney's physical impact is also quite strong; otherwise, how would he have the nickname "Little Tank?"
Manchester United fans were also applauding Rooney's performance.
Gao Bo on the sidelines was also a little anxious. He couldn't let Manchester United cross the ball from the wing at will. More crosses would increase the possibility of mistakes.
Gao Bo couldn't guarantee that his players would definitely not make mistakes!
Manchester United's corner kick was taken, and then Campbell headed it out of the penalty area.
Drinkwater rushed forward, and Carrick also rushed over. This is a fifty-fifty ball!!
However, Drinkwater was ultimately faster. He directly kicked the ball high, and the football flew high into the air and then went out of the baseline from the direction of the Manchester United goal.
Manchester United's backfield ball!
Taking advantage of the gap before the ball was kicked out, the broadcaster's camera focused on Drinkwater.
"Drinkwater, this Luton player on loan from Manchester United has recently been caught in a media vortex because of Ferguson's words. Will he return to Manchester United this season and play in Manchester United's first team?" Wrightkinson said.
At this time, the television broadcast switched the picture to Welbeck and Cleverley on the sidelines.
Although they are the best of Manchester United's youth training players born in the 90s, it is still quite difficult for them to get a starting position in Manchester United's first team.
Welbeck's competitors are Rooney and Berbatov, while Cleverley's competitors are Carrick, Fletcher, Scholes, and Park Ji-sung!
Facing these stars, it is too difficult for the two young players to get opportunities.
And Drinkwater, who is in the same class as them, has now firmly occupied the main position in Luton. Drinkwater was one of the Luton players with the most playing time last season. Like Kanter, he is almost a full-time Luton player.
Cleverley looked at Drinkwater, who was sweating profusely on the field, with a somewhat complicated expression.
.
This partner of his in the youth team has now found an opportunity to play on another platform. What about himself? He is waiting bitterly on the bench.
Whether to wait for opportunities on the bench of Manchester United or to go out and look for opportunities to play.
How to choose, what is right and wrong, who can say for sure?
