问题     In football, nothing is more valuable than the wonder kid. Managers spend plenty of their time searching for these rare gems(室石). Anderson Luis is one such gem from Brazil. He won the Tuttosport Golden Boy Trophy(奖杯)on December 7. The award is given to the best player in Europe under the age of 21.
    Anderson plays for Manchester United and he has already won the Premier League and the Champions League with his team.
    "He is 20, with the decision - making, position - taking intelligence of a 30 - year - old. Short at 1. 76m, yet strong and rapid enough to win most physical battles, " writes Duncan Castles, a reporter with Britain’s The Guardian newspaper.
    And Anderson is glowing with self - confidence. " Scared? I’ve never been scared of anything, " he said. "When I play football, I’m not scared of anyone. You are there for the football: you are there to have fun, to play. "

    Anderson is honest in his attitude toward money. " Yes, I like money a lot. Who doesn’t?" Anderson’s father died in 2001 and by the age of 14, his youth - team salary in a local club in Brazil supported his mother, sister and two brothers. "I became used to being a man very young. I was 15, but already thinking as if I was 22 and making very tough decisions about my future. I had to help the family, but that was also a responsibility. And what I still do today and hope to be able to do for my family until I am 60.
