The end of the FA Cup also means that all competitions for the Longteng team in the 2014 season are over.
For the Longteng team, this was a successful season and a failed season.
The reason for success is that the Longteng team has successfully established a foothold in the Chinese Super League. From the consecutive winless season at the beginning of the season to the rapid progress later on, it has obtained the bottom line goal set at the beginning of the season - to qualify for the AFC Champions League.
The failure is because the Longteng team achieved nothing this season. They were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the AFC Champions League, only finished third in the league, and only finished second in the FA Cup. Compared to previous seasons, there was always a champion.
As far as the Dragon Team is concerned, there really is nothing to boast about.
In Zhang Sheng's view, the most successful thing the Longteng team did in the 2014 season was to lay a foundation for the club - the formation of the youth training and coaching staff.
This season, Zhang Sheng did not summon a large number of players. Instead, he targeted the more basic part - coaches. The 16 high-level coaches summoned from the system, plus a few who had gone to Germany for training before,
A famous coach can give Longteng Club less worries in its future development. Even if the system suddenly disappears one day, Zhang Sheng can deal with it without fear, because the foundation of the club has been firmly laid.
After all, calling players solves temporary difficulties, calling coaches solves long-term difficulties. This is the difference between a golden egg and a hen that lays golden eggs.
As long as Zhang Sheng keeps the team of these high-level coaches intact, he can inherit batch after batch of good coaches and incubate batch after batch of good players under their leadership.
After the end of the season, Zhang Sheng made adjustments to the club's coaching team. The previously summoned coach Zhang Yi had been discharged from the hospital. He took over the management tasks of the club's U13 echelon and took the initiative to bring two young players with him.
graduate.
Having Zhang Yi lead the U13 echelon makes Zhang Sheng relieved a lot, because he is a coach with excellent experience and ability, which greatly frees up the task of coaching the club's U13 echelon.
At the same time, Zhang Sheng also assigned another task to the summoned coach - training.
Previously, the Longteng team had its own training system, but the training staff were all professional trainers brought in from outside through various relationships, including those from developed football countries invited by the external relations departments of the Chinese Football Association and the Hubei Football Association.
Various experts, including trainers affiliated with FIFA, AFC, etc., such training are mainly based on surprise training. You can learn a lot, but it is more of a one-time deal.
A lot of knowledge is once learned and then forgotten.
Zhang Sheng also knows that these trainings have been misinterpreted in China - in many places, through this kind of training, you only need to get a completion certificate to prove that you have this qualification, just like the evaluation of professional titles in many state-owned enterprises, just for a brand
, good for a salary increase.
Zhang Sheng believes that the internal training system is the real foundation. Compared with the previous training system, internal training goes deep into the grassroots to guide poverty alleviation. The previous training was just like the Poverty Alleviation Office getting the poverty alleviation funds and spreading them down. This is the teaching
The difference between teaching a man to fish and teaching him to fish.
Of course, in terms of players, even if Zhang Sheng does not call on players this season, the Longteng team will gain a lot, because the existing players have also improved a lot in terms of ability index.
After the season, Zhang Sheng carefully checked the players' ability index and found that many of their players had made a qualitative leap.
First of all, those players in the first team are growing very fast.
In the goalkeeper position, even though Zhou Wei was injured and his ability index was suppressed, he still rose from 68 during the mid-season to 73. Especially after being selected into the national team roster this time, his confidence and ability index have changed.
Although he did not make the final 23-man roster due to injury, it can be seen that he still gained a lot.
As one of Zhang Sheng's weakest moves this season, Song Jianhua, as the "old man" who was left behind when Longteng Club acquired Optics Valley Football School, has been criticized by outsiders. His potential is too low and his foundation is not solid. He was suspended from Zhou Wei and
When he was injured, he caused a lot of trouble for the Longteng team.
But even so, the training of the Football Association Cup, the Chinese Super League and even the AFC Champions League has made him grow a lot. His ability value has also increased from 55 to 58, which has reached the upper limit of his potential value. Of course, next season, Huang Dawei can
Signing up for the Chinese Super League, he probably won't have many chances to play, and he should be positioned as the third goalkeeper.
At the guard position, the ability index of several players, including foreign players, has also increased very high. For example, McGowan went from 82 to 84. Compared with his potential value of 85, it can be said that he has reached the peak of his career.
In terms of domestic players, Ma Yongli has gone from 78 to 81. This ability index is already outstanding among domestic central defenders. Compared with his 20 years old, he is still more than 2 months younger. At least at this stage, he can
He can be said to be a young genius; the main left back Zhou Zhou has gone from 72 to 74, and is definitely one of the most capable in the country; as for the main right back Shu Jun, his potential value has reached the upper limit and is only 71.
Even so, the ability value is much higher than the 68 during the break.
In the substitute position of the defender, due to the third-line combat this season, the Longteng team's substitute players have many opportunities to play, which is very helpful to their growth.
For example, as the two players with the most rotations, Lu Zhihui and Xiao Yunfan have grown very rapidly.
As an important chess piece for Zhang Sheng to adjust his defense strategy and even change his offensive tactics, Lu Zhihui is often arranged to play as a backhand and a surprise player. After training in the game, his ability index rose from 75 to 77, compared to his potential of 78
Yes, he will turn 28 at the start of next season. He has entered the golden age of a central defender and is about to enter the peak of his career.
As a player who can play as both a left and right defender, Xiao Yunfan has become a versatile full-back for the Dragons this season. Once the full-back players have injuries or lack of physical fitness, he will play and he was even selected for the national team in the later period.
In the team's roster, his ability value also increased from 69 to 72.
The other two defensive line substitutes played slightly less time, but Zhang Sheng never hesitated to give them playing time when many personnel were really insufficient or they were leading by a big score. At the same time, he was selected for the national team.
The youth team has participated in many international competitions and has grown a lot.
Wei Zhimin, the left back substitute, rose from 66 to 70, and Du Zhenyu, the center back substitute, rose from 66 to 69, both proving their bright future.
The midfield has always been the most praised place by the outside world. As the foundation for the survival of the Longteng team, Zhang Sheng pays the most attention and gives the most guidance. Most of the tactics are formed here, so the growth of the players is also
Huge.
In terms of defense in the midfield, several main midfielders, midfielders and players who have been successfully transformed by Zhang Sheng have grown in ability index and even upper limit of potential.
In terms of foreign aid, Kante, who occupied the main position in the first half of the season, has an ability value of 90. After moving to the Premier League during the break, he grew even more rapidly. He has approached the 100 ability index mark and reached 99;
Roque Gill, who transferred in the second half of the season, quickly integrated into the team. His ability value went from 84 to 88 in a flash. His sweeping and interception abilities are even considered by the outside world to be likely to lead the introduction of foreign players in the midfielder position.
tide.
In terms of domestic players, after Lin Feng was successfully transformed from a right midfielder into a B2B defensive midfielder, both his ability value and potential value have been greatly improved. His potential value has increased from 75 to 83, and his ability value has also increased from 73.
It has reached 77. This is because he is currently recovering from a serious injury. Once he recovers from his injury, his ability value exceeding 80 will be just around the corner.
Another person Zhang Sheng was looking forward to more was Tao Wentao. After the season, Zhang Sheng also received the news that the system's task of training Tao Wentao was over. While receiving an intermediate potential pill, he also received 3 high-level player cards.
Growth accelerator, the experience of this skill of omnipresence has reached 2/3. As long as there is another successful player position transformation, it can be upgraded to level 2. As a benefit of the successful transformation, Tao Wentao's potential value has increased from 85
90, the ability index has increased even more dramatically, from 68 to 75. Zhang Sheng is even more looking forward to his performance after the transformation is successful.
As for the substitute position of the midfielder, Zhang Hao, as a purely defensive midfielder, has an ability value that has increased from 67 to 71. He has lived up to the training of Zhang Sheng who sent him to participate in key games such as the AFC Champions League and the Football Association Cup final many times. Of course,
The reward he gave Zhang Sheng was not small, and the golden away goal in the AFC Champions League was the report card.
In the two wing positions in the midfield, Zhang Sheng chose more foreign players for the sake of the team's performance, so the abilities of several foreign players increased the most.
In the first half of the season, Mahrez was the absolute main force on the wing of the team. His ability value of 87 is definitely among the top in the country. After arriving in the Premier League, although he played more games in the reserve team, his ability value also increased significantly.
Awesome, it’s now 96.
The arrival of Ben Alpha in the next season caused a lot of doubts from the outside world. He did have a period of very sluggish performance. At that time, Zhang Sheng insisted that he change his playing style and let him play. The pressure was very high.
Ben Alpha himself even began to doubt his abilities, but after going through that torturous period, Ben Alpha still made great improvements, from his ability value of 89 when he first joined the team to now
With an ability value of 99, it can be seen that he has slowly come out of the sluggish period. Next season, he will be Zhang Sheng's sharp knife on the wing.
What makes Zhang Sheng most gratified is not Ben Alpha, because Zhang Sheng is even more overjoyed with the growth of the domestic wing players in the team, especially Ding Huaiyi.
As one of Zhang Sheng's most regrettable summoned players, Ding Huaiyi has always been loved by Zhang Sheng with his extraordinary talent and imagination beyond ordinary people. Zhang Sheng has always believed that if he could receive formal professional football training from a young age
, being "Chinese Ronaldinho" has no problem at all, so Zhang Sheng basically gave him all the potential pills he could use, but from the information prompted by the system, he can only have a potential value of 100 at most, even if Ding Huaiyi's
If the potential is fully redeemed, this value is just the main player of the mid-to-lower Bundesliga team.
However, Ding Huaiyi's growth rate still gave Zhang Sheng a big surprise.
At the beginning of this season, Ding Huaiyi's weakest areas of confrontation and physical fitness were still his weaknesses. However, after the break, he quickly improved greatly, especially at the end of the league.
, Ding Huaiyi basically played the whole game and fought continuously. Judging from his performance, he has fully adapted to the intensity and physical requirements of the Chinese Super League. This can be reflected from his ability value-from
74 soared to 80.
Originally, Zhang Sheng thought of sending him abroad until the middle of the league next year, but now it seems that it is unlikely that he will make a big improvement in the country. It is time for him to go abroad to develop.
Zhang Sheng is also more satisfied with Yu Bo. Although he is now playing more as a rotation player, he has never complained. Due to his low golf IQ, it is difficult for Yu Bo to perform amazingly on the court.
Performance, but as long as he is on the court, the Longteng team's left wing rarely suffers. After all, his physical fitness is first-class, and his ability value has also increased from 73 to 75.
Several other substitute players have also gained a lot in terms of ability. For example, Xiong Jian, who can play as a right midfielder and central midfielder, has increased from 67 to 71. For example, Yan Yan, who only meets the qualifications for the Chinese Super League in the middle of the league
Xiaoyu and Ni Kai were transferred to the first team when the team was most short of manpower. Their performance also made Zhang Sheng very satisfied. Yan Xiaoyu went from 58 to 65, and Ni Kai also went from 57 to 63.
Here I have to mention Yao Tian and Zhu Xuhe, who were loaned to Xinjiang Tianshan Snow Leopard Club at the beginning of the season. As two young players who were unable to play in the eyes of Zhang Sheng, they developed very well under the guidance of coach Li Jun. Yao Tian’s ability from 66
The value reached 71, and Zhu Xuhe's ability value also increased from 69 to 72.
This year's Tianshan Snow Leopards, as a team that almost couldn't even pay their wages, were ranked fifth at the end of the season, and were only 7 points behind Shijiazhuang Yongchang, the second-placed team in the league that had successfully reached the Super League. It can be seen that the two of them were
Personal contribution to the team is the result of the fact that the two of them have been deployed by the Olympic team to play games many times, which has greatly affected the team's performance. If they are really allowed to concentrate on the league,
Maybe the Tianshan Snow Leopards are the biggest dark horse in China League One this year.
The most troublesome thing for Zhang Sheng now is the forward line, because judging from the current configuration, it is really a bit too weak.
