After Ding Huaiyi left, at the end of December, the Longteng team officially started winter training for the 2015 season.
Before this winter training, many Longteng players did not get enough rest time, because after the FA Cup final ended and the Longteng team held its season summary meeting, only one week passed on December 1.
The Japanese national team and the Olympic team have started training again, and on December 24, the U16 national team also started training.
This training session for the national team is a little shorter, ending on December 7th to December 21st. However, the national team players will also participate in Australia from January 9th to January 31st, 2015.
The 2015 Asian Cup was held; the U16 national team was from January 6 to January 27, 2015; as for the Olympic team, it was a bit sad and crazy. They had been training since December 5, 2014.
The game lasted until February 15, 2015. At this time, the Dragons even missed the first game of the AFC Champions League qualifying match on February 10. Once the Dragons passed the first game, they would not even play the second game on February 17.
In this qualifying match, these players who have fully returned to the team will definitely not be able to play.
What is even more outrageous is the news Zhang Sheng received through the Hubei Football Association. The Chinese Football Association is also preparing to send the U16 national team to participate in the 2015 "ASEAN Cup" International Youth Football Invitational Tournament. This tournament will start in early March 2015. If you add
During the training camp, when the players from the U16 national team in the Long Teng team returned to China, they had even played two rounds of the Chinese Super League.
Zhang Sheng was very annoyed with this series of training sessions for the national team, because no matter which echelon the national team was, there were a large number of Dragons players. If the requirements of the national teams at each echelon were really followed, the Dragons' pre-season winter training would also be
There is no need to carry it out, the players can simply go directly to play in the Chinese Super League next season.
Of course, there is good news. According to the information Zhang Sheng received from the Hubei Football Association, the Chinese Football Association's 2015 season registration and transfer working meeting to be held before New Year's Day will definitely pass the reform plan for professional player registration regulations.
The Hubei Football Association, as a provincial football association that has made great achievements in recent years, has been "simplified in the heart of the emperor" for the Chinese Football Association in recent years. Many of the Chinese Football Association's reform plans will seek their opinions and will disclose information to them in advance.
Now that they have confirmed the news to the Dragon Team, it should be a done deal.
In Zhang Sheng's impression, the Chinese Football Association did carry out reforms to the registration and participation qualifications of professional players this year.
First of all, they redefined the qualifications of professional football players, stipulating that as long as the income of the club is greater than the expenditure, they are professional players. At the same time, they lowered the age of professional players from 18 to 16 years old, which means that they must be in the year before the season registration deadline.
Players over the age of 16 are eligible to register for the 2015 Chinese Super League.
This is something Zhang Sheng has been looking forward to, because now there are too many players in the Longteng team who are over 16 years old and it is difficult for them to make great progress in the reserve league and friendly matches. It is time for them to participate in the Chinese Super League.
For example, 17-year-old Nie Jiang, for example, and 17-year-old goalkeeper Huang Dawei, who Zhang Sheng plans to promote as the second goalkeeper, their ability values are close to or even exceed 70, and there is also a 16 player in the team who has an ability of over 60.
Years old, 17-year-old youngster.
Zhang Sheng plans to use them as substitutes, rotations, and even main players next season.
However, if they really agree to be called up by the national team in one fell swoop, winter training will be meaningless for them, and the Chinese Super League next season will be extremely difficult for the Longteng team.
Therefore, Zhang Sheng argued with the Chinese Football Association on the issue of player recruitment, but the Hubei Football Association was not able to speak out this time.
After countless phone calls, faxes, and even face-to-face discussions, both parties took a step back and reached a preliminary agreement.
Zhang Sheng and the coaching staff reviewed their lineup and submitted an acceptable list based on the personnel reserves and player abilities of the positions on the field.
As for the goalkeeper position, Huang Dawei must not be let go. As the first substitute goalkeeper next season, he must train with the team throughout the whole process. Besides, Huang Dawei will be 17 years old by the end of February. According to the plan of the Chinese Football Association, the U16 segment
Most of the players were born in 2000. It would not be very interesting if Huang Dawei left in 1998, because he would leave the team soon. Nie Jiang was also in the same situation as him.
In the central defender position, Ma Yongli has already gone to the national team. Du Zhenyu is the absolute core of the Olympic team's defense. The opponent refuses to let him go, so Zhang Sheng can only let him go. So, 17-year-old Li Ming, Zhang Sheng will not let him go.
People are gone.
In the position of full-back, the Longteng team has relatively rich reserves, so except for Wei Zhimin, Zhang Sheng released all the personnel transferred from the national teams at all levels, which is a good thing for the Football Association.
Although the midfield area of the Longteng team is considered to have the most manpower, it is the key area of training during this winter training. Facing the competition between the Olympic team and the U16 national team, everyone's focus of conflict is here.
The National Olympic team wanted to take away Yao Tian, Zhu Xuhe, Yan Xiaoyu, Ni Kai, and Qu Wenming, but Zhang Sheng firmly disagreed. In Zhang Sheng's plan, Yan Xiaoyu, Ni Kai, and Qu Wenming would all be loaned out.
When a Chinese League One team goes to play a game, they will be transferred if they are transferred. However, Yao Tian and Zhu Xuhe, who have been the main players in the Chinese League One for a year, have increased their experience and ability very quickly. Zhang Sheng is preparing for this season.
Get both of them back and use them as rotation players.
In the end, after some bargaining, Zhu Xuhe was retained. As Zhu Xuhe's replacement, Qi Ming was transferred to the Olympic team.
The forward line was also the focus of debate between the two sides. As the center that Zhang Sheng was preparing to strengthen this season, Zou Weijia was impossible to let go anyway. However, he was also the absolute main center of the Olympic team. The Olympic team insisted on transferring him, and finally the two sides reached an agreement.
After signing the agreement, he does not need to participate in the training of the Olympic team. He will first participate in winter training at the Longteng Club, and then report to the Olympic team and directly participate in the competition.
After this dispute, as the national team players returned to report, the Longteng team finally gathered the players.
During the training and competition period of the national team, they played three warm-up matches with Kyrgyzstan and Palestine respectively. When facing the weaker Kyrgyzstan, the Chinese team won two games, with Wen Kai as the
The main center forward scored three goals in two games, which is considered to be a great success.
When playing against the slightly stronger Palestine, the players who had worked hard all season looked very tired. In the end, they won 1:0 with a goal from Voure, which was regarded as giving the Chinese team points in the FIFA rankings.
.
The players of the Longteng team also rushed back after taking a week's rest after finishing the game.
As the third place in the league this season, the Longteng team qualified to participate in the AFC Champions League.
However, this qualification is a bit hurtful to the team. According to the previous AFC reform of the 2015 and 2016 AFC Champions League, the AFC Champions League scoring standard consists of two parts, of which the national team's performance accounts for 30% and the club's performance accounts for 70%.
Although the performance of the Chinese national team has improved due to the emergence of Longteng Club players, compared to Japan and South Korea, the gap is still very large, not to mention the results in the club, the results before the K League and J League are even more
Much higher than the Chinese Super League.
Therefore, in the East Asia rankings, South Korea, which ranks first, has four teams participating in the main draw, Japan, which ranks second, has three teams participating in the main draw, and China, after working hard to retain the third position, although four teams have participated in the Asian
However, only two teams can directly enter the main draw, and the other two teams must play in the play-offs. According to the rules set by the Chinese Football Association, the league champion and the FA Cup champion qualify for the main draw, and the second-ranked team from the league will qualify for the championship.
The third and final round of the play-offs will start. The third-ranked team in the league will start from the second round of the play-offs and will play two more games than the teams that directly participate in the main draw.
Don't underestimate these two rounds of competition, because if you want to pass the play-offs safely, the players' condition must be maintained, which means you can participate in the game two weeks earlier than others and start training more than half a month earlier than others.
Therefore, players have shorter vacations and less time to relax, which will have a huge impact on the next season.
Zhang Sheng moved the winter training time to the end of December, which is already very considerate of the players. Compared with other teams, those who started winter training earlier, such as the newly upgraded Chongqing Lifan, started winter training on December 1.
Several teams that have successfully relegated, such as Henan Jianye, also started winter training on December 3. A little later, Beijing Guoan and Guizhou Renhe also started gathering around December 20. Only two teams directly participated in the regular season.
Guangzhou Evergrande and Shandong Luneng, who are competing in the competition, have not started winter training yet.
As before, the returning players underwent physical examinations as usual, and then formulated different physical training plans based on their actual conditions.
Judging from the results of this inspection, the players during this holiday have maintained good health. Maybe last season's results were not too good compared to the previous season. The players also know that they should work harder, let alone go
Zhang Sheng was in trouble.
After seeing the report submitted by the physical fitness coaching staff, Zhang Sheng was also very satisfied. It seemed that he did not need to spend more time adjusting the players' physical condition. After a short adjustment, he could directly start his tactics for this season.
Transformed.
After the team was centralized, the first thing the Longteng team did was to reserve physical fitness.
Compared with the previous All-Ocean class, the difference is that this time there is a Chinese figure in the physical coaching team. He is the physical coach Huang Long summoned by the system.
After Huang Long came to the Longteng team, Zhang Sheng did not directly arrange him into the physical fitness team, but asked him to familiarize himself with the requirements of the physical fitness coach of the Longteng club. After all, the ability of the current physical fitness team of the Longteng team is definitely one of the best in the Super League. Huang Long
I don’t have the ability to participate in it yet.
Huang Long imagined that he would work harder than Zhang Sheng. He did not think about waiting during the familiarization stage, but took the initiative to learn German, because he also knew that he would study with a German-dominated physical fitness team in the future, regardless of the opponent.
Regardless of your attitude, you must be prepared in advance. The most urgent thing is to learn the language, because everything is useless if you don’t understand the language.
Huang Long had a very hard time during this period. He spent all his time studying with the team during the day. He did not give himself any free time after get off work and immediately devoted himself to learning German. Zhang Sheng also supported his study very much. I asked the club to help find a German teacher with very good teaching experience to provide a crash course in German.
Zhang Sheng actually didn’t have high hopes for Huang Long’s learning this time. After all, a language is not that easy to master. However, Huang Long’s progress in German really scared Zhang Sheng. After just over a month of study,
, Huang Long was actually able to converse with Zhang Sheng in German.
Seeing this, Zhang Sheng continued to increase Huang Long's study time. Finally, before the start of winter training, Huang Long was able to communicate happily with Leutard and Zeitelmeisl.
Zhang Sheng had to lament the learning ability of the coaches summoned by the system.
After joining the physical fitness team, Huang Long seemed very humble. He completely regarded himself as a student and follower. If the two Germans had any needs, they didn't need to tell them. With a simple movement and look, Huang Long would immediately step forward.
implement.
Leutard and Zettermeisl were completely ashamed of this Chinese who was obviously coming here to steal their skills. After all, no matter who they were, it was difficult to refuse such a attentive follower. Gradually, the two of them gradually
I also started to like this Chinese guy.
This time the physical reserve work was done very smoothly, and the team's nutritionist Chen Jian also contributed a lot.
In order to prepare for this pre-season, Chen Jian made a special trip back to the United States, visited his doctoral supervisor, and inquired in great detail about some of his recent advanced sports nutrition research developments.
The instructor was a little unhappy with this Chinese who insisted on returning to China, and treated his visit a bit perfunctory.
After Chen Jian was keenly aware of it, he started to change his routine and found a senior who had independently set up a laboratory. This senior had previously worked in professional sports competitions in the United States and had rich practical experience.
Knowing that his senior brother was currently very short of funds in the laboratory, Chen Jian used the funds provided by the club to clear the way. With a "labor fee" of a check of five thousand US dollars, he obtained a lot of precious information and established a long-term cooperative relationship with his senior brother.
.
Chen Jian, who returned to China with this information, quickly put these advanced American experiences and theories to use and formulated a very scientific nutritional meal for the players on the team. In conjunction with the players' physical data fed back by the physical fitness team every day, he continuously
The adjustments were made and contributed greatly to the players' pre-game physical reserves.
