Chapter 57: An Unguessable Mind

But Vanney ......

Ferguson looked at Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is not in a very consistent form, always one game good and one game bad.

He scored a hat-trick in the national team, but at the club, he couldn't score any shots now.

It's a real rush to death.

With the Champions League away in midweek and Arsenal at home at the weekend, he needs Ruud van Nistelrooy.

When playing tough battles, it is still a famous star like Ruud van Nistelrooy who is the most reliable, and Ferguson also trusts him, so he hopes that Ruud van Nistelrooy can also score as soon as possible.

Now Dong Fang Zhuomeng has scored a goal, which obviously puts pressure on him.

It's just that the guy who can break through the most on the field is Ronaldo, but he likes to pass the ball to Dong Fangzhuo, not him, which is a big loss.

Smith on the left is a striker himself, he can't be passable, and Scholes is actually the only one who can play the ball for him.

But he missed two assists from Scholes in the opening period, otherwise it would not have been Dong Fangzhuo's turn to be in the limelight.

Manchester United, who have a one-goal lead, have played well.

There was only one goal away from before, and after that, everything went smoothly.

Birmingham's attack was lacklustre and a little threat to United, with occasional counter-attacks generally being stopped on both flanks.

The rest of the time was basically Manchester United attacking, and in the 28th minute, Smith used his strong body to eat raw from the left, and directly volleyed with his left foot, and the ball hung straight into the near corner, rewriting the score to 2:0.

The goal was scored alone, and Vanney spread his hands in the middle with a look of helplessness.

He wanted to explode and scold, but he finally held back.

He didn't know if Smith had seen him, there was no one around him to defend at the time, but Smith opted to shoot straight at goal. If Smith can pass the ball to him, he can score with just a touch of it.

But Smith also needed to score a goal, and seeing him frantically rush to the corner flag to celebrate, you knew how hungry he was for it.

He's a striker, he's not a wing-back, he's hungry for goals, and he can't score any worse than any striker.

But he doesn't have any competitive advantage on the front line, and even Dong Fangzhuo can't compare.

Ferguson gave him a start to save face, and it came at the right time.

Ruud van Nistelrooy could only be more depressed, with both goals having nothing to do with him.

He desperately needs a goal!

In an anxious mood, he received a short pass from Scholes, he could have leaned on the opponent and tried to complete the shot, but in a hurry, he waved his hand and slapped his palm on the opponent's face, so that he was fouled by the referee, and he missed another chance to score.

And the half-time game was over, and Vanney came off the field with a blue face and a curse in his mouth, and the cameraman's camera captured it all.

Then the Sky Sports commentators started chattering.

'Ruud van Nistelrooy was a little unhappy, maybe he felt like his team-mates were targeting him, he was a little unlucky, he had a couple of chances in the first half, but the goalkeeper blocked them all, and he could be replaced by Alex Ferguson in the second half.

'The Champions League game against Arsenal is coming up and if he doesn't get back to scoring form soon, he's likely to be on the bench and time is running out.

'It's probably not stressful to play away from home in the Champions League, but it's important to play against Arsenal, who haven't lost since last season! Alex Ferguson would definitely like Ruud van Nistelrooy to start, but with the state he is in, is he worth trusting? ”

"I think Ruud van Nisney's form is okay, it's just bad luck, he's just one goal away, once you open the goal account, his goals will keep coming, and now on the pitch, it's clear that Ruud van Nistelrooy and China Dong, Cristiano, and Smith don't get along, only Scholes is familiar with Ruud van Nistelrooy's movement, which is very unfair to him. It's not a personal problem, it's a tactical one, and Ronaldo seems to have only China Dong in his eyes, while Smith only has himself in his eyes. ”

The commentator made the same opinion, saying that Vanney was isolated, not that he was not in good shape.

'If the lord had brought Ryan Giggs on in the second half, maybe Ruud van Nistelrooy would have come back to life.'

"What if you still don't score?"

"Then he'll have to go to the bench, he's not going to let that happen."

At the start of the second half, Ferguson began to warm up his substitutes, with Saha, Ryan Giggs and Keane all warming up on the sidelines at the same time, with two goals in hand, and United could basically say that they won the game away from home, unless a player was pumping on the pitch.

Within a few minutes of the game, what everyone didn't expect was that Ferguson did make a substitution, with Saha and Ryan Giggs coming on at the same time.

Ryan Giggs replaced Smith, one of the scorers.

Smith's face is not very good-looking, as one of the scorers, he was substituted so early, his face must not be good.

But he didn't expect that Dong Fangzhuo would also follow.

Saha did play, but instead of Vanney, he was replaced by Dong Fangzhuo.

Dong Fangzhuo also felt very surprised, no one wanted to be replaced in advance.

He really didn't expect it.

Shouldn't it be Fanny?

What the hell is the lord playing......

Sometimes, he thinks a little too much.

He muttered in his heart, sullen, but not as obvious on his face as Smith did.

'You see, it's a very clear signal, and that's the rhythm that makes Ruud van Nistelrooy find his goalscoring form. Replaced by Ryan Giggs, just to make the ball for Vanney. The guests talked eloquently, as if they had really predicted correctly.

"No, I'm just the opposite of what you think, let China Dong go off the field is to let him save his physical strength so that he can prepare for the next game in advance."

The opinions of the narrator and the guest were divided, and the two people had their own opinions.

"This game will definitely not be lost again, China Dong has already played the role of a corkscrew, the rest of the time is garbage time, there is no need to stay on it anymore, otherwise it will not be Saha."

After another ten minutes, Ferguson made another substitution, replacing Fletcher with Keane.

Manchester United's squad has gotten stronger.

Keane came on to make the Reds more stable at the back, and then Ryan Giggs on the left was quick to send the ball into the box, and Ruud van Nistelrooy finally got home.

As the guest said, as soon as Vanney opened his account for goals, his goals began to come in a steady stream.

Three minutes later, it was Ryan Giggs from the left who crossed and Ruud van Nistelrooy headed home.

It took only five minutes to score a brace......

"In this case, Ruud van Nistelrooy has locked up the starting position for the last two games, provided that Smith is not allowed to play on the left, it must be Ryan Giggs on the field, with Giggs and Scholes on the field, Ruud van Nistelrooy is like a fish in water, plus Rooney returns, this is the best configuration for Manchester United."

"You're really forgetful, did you forget so quickly who scored the first goal in this game?"

The commentators were a little indignant about Dong Fangzhuo.

"Is there a difference? If Ryan Giggs had been on the pitch at the start, Ruud van Nistelrooy would have scored. ”

"If Rooney was on the pitch, the problem would have been solved more quickly, and I'm sure the lord saw that too, and we can never guess what he was thinking."

"You can't find a balance for every player, including Smith."

"Huh...... I hope so. ”
