When facing Zhang Chen, Zhang Sheng is well prepared, that is, for the AFC Champions League this season, Zhang Sheng wants to find a real big star to calm the situation, and this transfer operation has reached the final stage.
Quge
Finding a strong forward was something that Zhang Sheng decided at the beginning of the Chinese League One season, because Zhang Sheng, who was sure of promotion, had long started to consider the difference between the Chinese League One and the Chinese League.
The current Chinese football league has a very unhealthy inverted pyramid structure, that is, there are many Chinese League Two and Chinese League One that receive no attention at all. All eyes are focused on the Chinese League. Most of the funds are also piled up.
In the Chinese League, most of the good domestic players are also in the Chinese League, and most of the good foreign players are also in the Chinese League.
This has led to a situation where the gap between the Chinese League One and the Chinese League, as the second level league, is too huge. Basically all the Chinese League One teams have to make large-scale changes to local players and spend a lot of money to buy powerful foreign players.
If the necessary things are done, there is only one consequence waiting for the team - relegation. Unless the Chinese League One team itself is based on mid-level players, such as Henan Jianye, which was promoted this year; or the team has very effective, mature and
A tactical system that can restrain Chinese teams, such as Yanbian Fude in later generations.
This can be seen from the statistics of the two league games.
With the arrival of a large number of top foreign players, high-level coaches and a strong coaching team, the level of the Chinese League is gradually improving. For example, in 2010, the average running distance of domestic Chinese League players was only about 7,000 meters. Some
Players even only ran more than 3,000 meters in one game. There were only a handful of players who could run 1,000 meters in domestic competitions. At the same time, the running distances of Korean and Japanese players were around 1,000 meters. By 2012,
The average running distance per game of Chinese League players has increased to nearly 9,000 meters; and by the 2o14 season, the average running distance per game of each Chinese team has reached 1.5 kilometers or even more than 11.0 kilometers.
Running an average of 1,000 meters is a very common phenomenon. So much so that in the top 12 stage of the 2o16 World Cup budget competition, Chinese players were able to use running to make the players of the Korean and Iranian national teams, who have always been known to have good physical fitness, lose their physical fitness.
This explains the problem very much.
The average running distance per game in the Chinese League One has been around 6,000 meters since 2o1o. Even after several years of development and progress, by 2o14, the average running distance per game for most teams was 9o kilometers.
Around that, the average running distance of players rarely reaches 1,000 meters per game.
Although football matches do not necessarily win by running a lot of distance, for example, Henan Jianye, which ran the most distance in the league in the 2o12 season, was relegated, but a team that doesn't run much will definitely have poor results, unless your ball
The team has a strong group and can reduce running through precise passing.
When it comes to the number of passes and the success rate of passes, the data of the Chinese League is also far better than that of the Chinese League One.
In the Chinese League in the past 2013, Guangzhou Evergrande, which ranked first, averaged more than 400 passing successes per game, and their passing success rate also had a good result of 84%. Historically, Henan Jianye was the Chinese team.
Ranked first in the A-League, the average number of successful passes per game is only over 300, and the passing success rate is only a little over 70%. This is the data for players above and below Henan Jianye in the A-League.
In another aspect of the intensity of the game, the average net playing time per game can also well reflect the gap between the two leagues.
In 2o10, the average net game time of the Chinese League was just over 45 minutes. By 2o13, it had reached 53 minutes and 53 seconds. Although due to the intensity of the Chinese League, it had dropped to 53 minutes and 23 seconds by 2o14, but by 2o15
This season, the average net time per game in the Chinese League has increased to 54 minutes and 12 seconds.
The average net game time of the Chinese League One starts from 2o1o and has always been maintained at about 5o minutes. This means that there are a lot of interruptions in a game, unnecessary fouls are rampant, and there are countless times of lying on the grass.
In other words, the intensity of competition in China League One is completely different from that in China League One.
In terms of tactics, defense has always been the top priority of every Chinese team. Because big-name foreign players are rampant in the frontcourt, this leads to a problem. The defense of many teams will be impacted by these big-name offensive players, so most of them
Some mid-to-lower teams will deploy heavy troops in the backcourt. At the same time, this also leads to another problem. Once a team does not have a strong offensive forward in the frontcourt, it will be difficult to break the opponent's defense, which will cause problems for all players.
Only the team's forward players have high requirements for their abilities.
This is also the reason why in the 2o16 season, even top teams like Liaoning Hongyun spent 1300 euros to buy powerful Bundesliga forwards like Uja, because without such a powerful forward, it is difficult to open the door to opponents.
.
Zhang Sheng began to select strong forwards and foreign aid at the beginning of this Chinese League One season, and Zhang Sheng was working with the idea of looking for a good and cheap forward. However, after looking around in the market, Zhang Sheng found that he had good quality and low price.
Things like this are too difficult. As a team that is determined to qualify for the AFC Champions League and also want to make a difference in the AFC Champions League, Zhang Sheng has to focus on those star forwards.
Zhang Sheng's first thought was the Red Bulls, who are closely related to his club. The Red Bulls did give a good suggestion, that is, Australian star Cahill of the New York Red Bulls, who is also a Red Bull club.
Cahill, who has participated in the World Cup for three consecutive years and scored 5 goals, was Australia's top star before. As a player who has played in the English League for many years and can lead the team to the top four in the UK with his excellent performance
, his ability is beyond doubt.
As he got older, Cahill moved to the New York Red Bulls Football Club, where he was a superstar. Historically, he played for the New York Red Bulls for 3 years before moving to the Chinese League and joining Shanghai Shenhua.
, his performance in Shenhua is still very outstanding. In 28 appearances, he scored 11 goals, which shows his ability.
However, after Zhang Sheng investigated his specific situation, he still felt that it was a bit inappropriate, that is, his technical ability at the feet did not match the Longteng team's tactics, because Cahill's real strength is his scoring ability with headers.
The Longteng team mostly uses short passes to score goals. Although Cahill is strong, he does not meet Zhang Sheng's requirements.
After declining the Red Bulls' offer, Zhang Sheng set his sights on the Brazilian league. Zhang Sheng's partner in Brazil, Lao Costa, did provide Zhang Sheng with information on several players. None of these players had names.
The younger ones are Fabiano, Leandro Damian and Pato.
These three players were once the main forwards of the Brazilian national team, and it should be said that they are all strong in terms of ability. But at the same time, they are all returning to play in Brazil from European football.
When Fabiano first debuted, he was called the new Ronaldo. He once created an astonishing score of 55 goals in 48 games in the Brazilian League. After moving to Europe, he joined
La Liga's Sevilla team, with his goals, helped Sevilla win the UEFA Cup in 2006.
In the Brazilian national team, as the main forward, Fabiano helped Brazil win the 2004 America's Cup with two goals; in 2009, Fabiano won the Confederations Cup top scorer and Silver Ball Award with 5 goals, serving the Brazilian team.
Winning the title is a great achievement.
But in 2o11, Fabiano returned to his home team Sao Paulo due to injuries. Although he briefly went to the Turkish giant Galatasaray for a year, he still returned to Sao Paulo. Historically, he played in 2o16
In the year, he transferred to Tianjin Quanjian, a local tycoon in the Chinese League One.
He is definitely the most experienced of the three players recommended by Costa, but since Fabiano returned to Brazil from Europe to play, he has lost his forward position in the Brazilian national team. Although he returned briefly,
But he was still completely abandoned.
Zhang Sheng is skeptical about whether Fabiano can maintain a good condition. Although he is still very efficient in scoring despite being over 30 years old, he has scored 23 goals in 32 appearances in two years. But Zhang Sheng knows that he has never been in good shape.
At the beginning of the 2o14 season, his form declined drastically, and historically, he could not maintain his form and was abandoned by Sao Paulo.
At the same time, Zhang Sheng asked the team's scouts to inspect the second player, Leandro Damian.
Leandro Damian, nicknamed "Big Meow", played football very late. It was not until 2007 that his father took him to take an exam. Damian, who was already 17 years old, played in the small club Ibirama of Santa Catalina.
Atlético started playing serious football. In 2010, Damian officially transferred and was promoted to the Brazilian international first team. Although he did not have many playing opportunities, he scored many key goals, but his real breakthrough was in 2011.
In 2o11, Damian became the main player and wore the number 9. He played 17 times in the Rio Grande do Sul state championship and scored 13 goals, winning the three major honors of the Gold Cup, Golden Boot and Golden Ball.
Also in 2o11, Damian was selected for the Brazilian national team and participated in the America's Cup, but his performance was average. Later, Damian overtook Pato to occupy the position of the main center of the national team. In the 2o12 London Olympics, Brazil served as the center forward.
The number one killer of the National Olympic Games, Damian's performance can be said to be very eye-catching. His high efficiency of 6 goals in 5 games made him the top scorer in this Olympic Games.
Unexpectedly, Damian began to decline after the London Olympics, with constant injuries and poor condition. Although transfer rumors continued, no European club dared to ask for him. His poor performance was also noticed by Luiz Scolari.
In the eyes. Historically, he failed to participate in the 2o14 World Cup in Brazil.
Moreover, in a Brazilian League match in 2014, Damian made a farce of pulling his jersey in the opponent's penalty area in an attempt to deceive the referee into taking a penalty kick, which became a joke in Brazilian football. Because of his clumsy behavior, Damian
Won the title of "Worst Actor" in Pakistan.
Zhang Sheng does not want this player who has never been produced in future generations. (To be continued.)
