Chapter 22 is very calling

"Twenty-three-year-old Li Qingshan wore the captain's armband in the new season, and the new king of Old Trafford helped Manchester United win the treble in his crazy form last season!! How will he perform this season? Is he still a nightmare for every team? After Rooney left, Carrick took over as captain, but everyone knows that Carrick will retire soon, maybe this season, maybe next season, Li Qingshan will become the official captain of Manchester United!! Will he be the king of Old Trafford like Cantona and Roy Keane? ”

On the commentary seat, the commentator said endlessly.

From the moment the two teams entered, the camera lens followed Li Qingshan inch by inch.

The new Manchester United captain walked in with his team, shook hands with his team and Southampton players, and then took a group photo. After that, he took the Manchester United flag and exchanged the team flag with the opponent, completing the ceremony of picking the edge.

Looking at this long shot, people found that Li Qingshan seems to be very proficient in being the captain at present.

Once both sides were on the pitch, the camera was on Pogba.

Pogba, a 23-year-old who Manchester United brought back to Old Trafford for a million pounds this season, will wear the Red Devils' number six shirt in the Premier League this season. It was his first league game since returning to Manchester United, and the biggest thing to watch about was how well he adapts to the Premier League and whether there can be some chemistry between him and Li Qingshan. ”

"For Manchester United, Li Qingshan and Pogba, both 23-year-old players, can be said to be the strongest central axis combination in this age group, if the two of them can spark, in the next ten years, Manchester United will not have to worry about their central axis configuration in the midfield."

Pogba stood near the centre circle and waited for kick-off.

It wasn't his first game back at Manchester United, with the Community Shield getting his chance to start, but as the Community Shield wasn't a big game, it was in a way that was his debut in front of United fans – his first game at Old Trafford after his return.

Ten thousand pounds!

Returning to Manchester United at this price, Pogba will certainly feel the pressure. But when he came to Manchester United, he found that most of the attention was focused on Li Qingshan, although Pogba is worth a lot of money, but because Li Qingshan helped him attract most of the firepower, so relatively speaking, Pogba's pressure has been reduced.

A lot has happened this summer, but for Manchester United, the summer of signings is over.

As a result, Carlo Ancelotti's attention was entirely focused on the game.

In this game, the most important thing is, of course, to win the game, and the second is to see the tacit understanding between Pogba and Li Qingshan.

The game was in the rhythm of Manchester United from the start, with the Reds starting with a fast, fluid ground push.

Compared with the last Community Shield game, Pogba's ball in this game is much faster, and the French star is not a fool, he knows that in the rhythm of the Premier League, leaving too much of the ball at his feet is like a stripped *** exposed in front of a group of strong men, smiling at them.

Pogba had already experienced the consequences of this when he was in the Community Shield, and he certainly wouldn't put himself in danger easily.

The three midfielders in this game are Pogba, Herrera and Kramer.

All three deliberately picked up the speed of their passes, and with Juan Mata and Angel Di Maria both returning from injury, United soon pushed the line across half-time and kept Southampton at bay at home.

The box was packed with people and Southampton's crosses were heavily guarded – the consequences of allowing United to cross easily were experienced by all teams last season.

There was no chance to cross on the side, so Manchester United hit the ball to the middle, so Li Qingshan also pulled out of the densely populated penalty area and participated in the strategy in the middle.

Pogba stuffed the ball straight to Li Qingshan's feet.

It was the first time the two sides had worked together directly, with Carlo Ancelotti standing on the sidelines and looking to see if the two players he had relied on this season were calling.

It turns out that Pogba is worthy of being a talented player, and there seems to be some kind of tacit understanding between him and Li Qingshan.

Pogba immediately inserted the ball into the penalty area after passing, and Li Qingshan did not waste time, he immediately picked up the ball, picked the defender's head, and then turned around and walked into the penalty area.

As soon as Pogba stepped into the penalty area, he saw Li Qingshan's pass to him.

What a ball!

Pogba feels very good, and it is comfortable to work with a top player like Li Qingshan.

The height of the ball was just above the head of the French star, and Pogba's header swung horizontally!

On another line, Li Qingshan has already killed in!!

He turned and shook off the defender, and the ball went to his right foot with his thigh and stopped!!

The spectators in the stands held their breath and the pace was very fast as the game began!

Li Qingshan and Pogba cooperated twice, and they easily tore apart the middle defense line of Southampton's heavy defense!!

Li Qingshan stopped the ball in the danger zone and pressed forward with the ball, pressing the Southampton back line as a whole in the direction of the bottom line, so that there was a large space at the edge of the penalty area.

When there is a chance to pass the ball, Li Qingshan will not choose to shoot by himself.

He hooked the ball back with his right foot and swept it into the back space!

Inverted triangle pass!!

Pogba seemed to have known that Li Qingshan would pass like this, and he pushed with his foot in the open position, aiming at the far corner of the goal!!

Southampton's goalkeeper Fraser Forster almost lost his centre of gravity when the tip of his left foot touched Pogba's ball towards the far corner, but the ball changed direction slightly and bounced off the post!!

Wow!!!!

There was a sigh in the Old Trafford stands, followed by deafening applause.

Less than two minutes into the game, United produced a dangerous shot on goal!!

No one doubts Li Qingshan's ability, and last season, all teams knew that as long as Li Qingshan was killed, they would basically choke Manchester United's attack - although no team can successfully do this, but many teams will make more careful arrangements for this this this season.

But this season Manchester United have joined Paul Pogba!!

This makes people a little bit defensive and lose the other.

Paul Pogba, who almost scored his first goal back for Manchester United, was also quite regretful, but soon Li Qingshan came up to high-five him.

"Well done, Paul!!"

As the captain of the team, when his teammates perform well, he naturally has to be encouraging.
