After the game, although Zhang Sheng had a smile on his face after being promoted, his eyes showed melancholy.
The Longteng team was really hurt in this draw.
Zhang Hao's injury should not be serious, but Chavez's injury is hard to say.
Sure enough, after the examination, Zhang Hao could make a complete comeback in a week or two at most. The results of Chavez's examination were very worrying - the medial ligament of the ankle in his left foot was ruptured, and it would take at least two months to repair.
Monthly adjustments, if the progress is slightly unsatisfactory, it may take four to five months before I can play.
Although the Longteng team is playing 3-5-2 this season, Nie Jiang is more of a shadow forward as a forward, so the fulcrum role of the front center is too important. Among the two centers of the Longteng team, Cha
Weiss' ability is far stronger than Zou Weijia's.
Judging from the performance of the last game, Zou Weijia replaced Chavez and did not press the opponent's defense enough. Therefore, if the team wants to attack, it must move the formation higher up, which will give the opponent more space to counterattack.
Maybe Zou Weijia is okay at the Chinese Super League level, but in the AFC Champions League he is a little less capable.
Also ending with the Dragons game was the game between Jeonbuk Hyundai and Shanghai SIPG.
Jeonbuk Hyundai, which had a draw with Shanghai SIPG in the away game, returned to their home court and showed their strength to the fullest. They swept Shanghai SIPG 4:0 at their home court. This performance was really terrifying.
You must know that Shanghai SIPG is supported by top stars in Asia who are both famous and capable, such as Konka, Elkeson, and Ji'an.
Even Zhang Sheng was not sure that he could definitely defeat Shanghai SIPG. In order to face Shanghai SIPG in the next Chinese Super League match, Zhang Sheng got to know this team well.
Now Zhang Sheng has to think carefully about how to face Jeonbuk Hyundai without Chavez.
In the AFC Champions League match that ended one day ago, Guangzhou Evergrande won 3:0 away from home in the first round, but used a large number of substitutes in the second round. In the end, it tied with Sydney FC 1-1 at home and easily advanced.
to the semi-finals.
After Jiangsu Suning won a small 1:0 away game in the first round, they returned to home court because Xiao Yunfan was injured, and the wing attack, which was an important means of attack, wasted. They were defeated by Shuiyuan Samsung 1:0. In the end, Shuiyuan Samsung was eliminated by penalty kicks.
Jiangsu Suning.
Of the four Chinese Super League teams that have advanced from the group stage, only Longteng and Guangzhou Evergrande are left, and their opponents in the next round are two South Korean teams. The AFC Champions League in East Asia has once again become China and South Korea.
In the competition, this is also very consistent with the overall strength of the current East Asia League.
However, in China, everyone still generally believes that Jiang is still the best - the two teams that are regulars in the AFC Champions League and have championship experience, the Dragons and Guangzhou Evergrande are more competitive in the AFC Champions League.
The Chinese Super League and AFC Champions League are still in the ascendant, and the European leagues are basically over. Except for the Champions League final which will be held this weekend, the champions of the five major leagues have been produced, and the promotion teams of the secondary leagues have also been settled.
Ding Huaiyi's Salzburg Red Bull team easily won the championship this season. He also scored 13 goals alone, tied for third place in the scorer list with Rapid Vienna's Kayode, and won the Bronze Boot.
Red Bull Leipzig, where Li Yun and Qin Minghao belong, scored six points more than in history, beating Freiburg to win the Bundesliga Championship in the 2015-2016 season. This result is much better than the runner-up in history.
Xu Mingyu's Portuguese Liga team successfully avoided relegation, and he has become the team's core player.
As for the several foreign players who left the Longteng team, they surprised the entire European football world.
After Pato came to Chelsea, he contributed a lot to Chelsea, which was in urgent need of forwards. The young man who used to be a storm chaser now plays more reasonably and maintains his shooting level.
Under certain circumstances, his ability to play ball for his teammates has improved by leaps and bounds.
After half a Premier League season, Pato scored six goals and contributed four assists, which he did even though he came off the bench in several games.
As early as before the Premier League season ended, Chelsea began discussing Pato's official transfer with the Dragons.
However, one thing that is very unfavorable to Pato is that Hiddink, who used Pato freely, has already confirmed his dismissal - he is only ninth in the league ranking - one more than in history, and the new season has been confirmed as early as the winter break.
The head coach candidate - Italian Conte announced his class.
With a new head coach coming, it's really hard to say what Pato's position will be in the new season, because Conte is a head coach with a very personal character.
Even so, Pato doesn't have to worry about his future in Europe at all. As long as he keeps playing like this, any team in the five major leagues will have a place for him.
What is even more surprising are the two foreign players that Gao Gao transferred from the Dragons - Kante and Mahrez.
With these two players as the core, Leicester City staged a dark horse counterattack miracle that has been rare in European football for decades.
Kanter's ability to defend, intercept and pass the ball in the midfield midfield position has made him the hub of the team's midfield transition between offense and defense.
Although it seems that this player is not tall and he is not a very fierce player, his blocking position is accurate, he can attack in time, shovel when he should, and foul when he should, which greatly makes up for his physical condition.
shortcomings.
As soon as the season ended, countless teams started poaching players.
Although the boss of Leicester City has said countless times that Kante is the core of the team and is not for sale, it is obvious that a midfielder of this level cannot be retained by a small club like Leicester City.
In today's football, there are very few defensive midfielders in the midfield, not to mention that Carter is just 25 years old. At his age, as long as he maintains this state and does not suffer any serious injuries, he can at least contribute the most gold to the club.
For four or five years, this is the player that every club has dreamed of.
It is said that some Premier League giants have offered a price of 40 million pounds to compete for this sudden rise of the player.
His good performance at the club has also allowed Kante to be spotted by the French national team. The head coach of the French national team, Deschamps, has confirmed that he will take him to participate in the 15th European Cup to be held in France this summer.
This will be the first international player trained by the Longteng team to participate in the European Cup.
Another blockbuster player for Leicester City this season is Mahrez.
His hurricane-like dash, left and right shooting ability, overhead and kicking ability, and ability to hit free kicks from left, center and right in the frontcourt. Finally, coupled with his good assist level, he has become the team's well-deserved offensive core.
Throughout the season, he contributed 18 goals and 13 assists to the team, which was more impressive than the 17 goals and 11 assists in history, and he was also the only player in the Premier League that season.
A player who can deliver goals and assists in double-doubles. In addition, Mahrez averages 3.5 dribbles per game, ranking second among all players in the Premier League.
The most important thing is that Zhang Sheng changed the ownership of Mahrez's national team.
Historically, Mahrez was spotted by the Algerian national team in 2014 because of his performance at Leicester City. The temptation of the 2014 World Cup made him choose the Algerian national team.
And because in reality he moved to China, the Algerian national team naturally gave up investigating him - who from a powerful African team would go to China to pay attention to an unknown player?
Now it's different. In this crazy season of Leicester City, he, who has dual nationality of Algeria and France, was chosen by the French team.
Among the choices of these two national teams, any wise player will choose the French national team, and Mahrez is no exception.
Deschamps will not miss any of the French double stars against Leicester City. It is said that Mahrez is already on the list of the French team for the European Cup submitted on May 31.
At the same time, because he can participate in the national team in the European Cup, Mahrez's value has also skyrocketed. As Mahrez's "fellow" professor in France, Wenger has already named the club to introduce Mahrez in the summer, and has offered the legendary
Seventy million.
Think about how wonderful it would be if Mahrez could join Arsenal and form a frontcourt trident with 272 and 374.
A club that can cultivate two top stars and bring a former top star back to life has also attracted the attention of countless European clubs and fans.
If Pato was an unintentional purchase because it is now well known that the Chinese Super League has money and can do whatever they want, and as a result Liu Chengyin won the lottery, then buying Kante and Mahrez would be really amazing.
Already.
The current consequence is that Ben Alpha, another former talented player who is still playing for the Dragons, has also received great attention.
After carefully watching the video of Ben Alpha's current game and previous games, everyone was surprised to find that Ben Alpha, who used to only shoot suddenly and suddenly, actually learned to pass the ball, and the effect was pretty good.
Now it was the turn of the Nice team, which had been paying attention to Ben Arfa for a long time and had basically negotiated terms with Ben Arfa, to panic.
Ben Alpha is not the kind of "loyal person" who talks about kindness and first-come-first-serve. His past deeds tell everyone - don't talk about relationships with me, I only want money and fame.
After the Nice team finished this season's French Ligue 1, they specially sent people to negotiate with Ben Allgaard about the price. The price was much higher than previously expected, and they promised him the position of the core player of the team.
This man is finally stabilized.
In addition to the foreign players in the Longteng team, European clubs have also set their sights on several high-level Chinese local players in the Longteng team.
The outstanding performances of Nie Jiang and Qi Ming have naturally attracted attention.
European clubs that have entered the league offseason are looking for foreign players from all over the world. Chinese players are cheap and have great commercial value. Any club that is interested in football will not let them go.
However, Longteng Club rejected all inquiries and transfer attempts for Nie Jiang and Qi Ming.
European clubs cannot buy Dragons players, but Chinese Super League clubs will not give up easily.
After the start of this season, the Longteng team has a regular player in the national team. The absolute main player in previous seasons has lost his position in the club, and that is the team captain Zhou Zhou.
Because of Zhang Sheng's tactical changes, he was determined to play total offense and total defense, and emphasized that players must perform well offensively and defensively. Although Zhou Zhou, who had no talent in offense and all his abilities were defensive, was the captain, he gradually lost his place as the main force.
location.
Zhou Zhou himself is very self-aware. He knew that he had no place in the team, so he decisively made a transfer request.
Zhang Sheng readily agreed to Zhou Zhou's transfer request.
Hearing that Zhou Zhou was about to transfer, all the powerful (financial) clubs in the Chinese Super League were moved upon hearing the news.
Zhou Zhou can no longer play in games for the Dragons. That’s not because Zhou Zhou can’t stand as a full-back, but because he doesn’t meet the tactical requirements of the Dragons. His level is definitely above the standard in the Chinese Super League.
The summer window of the Chinese Super League is about to begin in three weeks, and now is the time for all clubs who want to strengthen and make achievements this season to buy players.
The teams that have made offers to the Longteng team include Guangzhou Evergrande, which wants to strengthen its lineup, Jiangsu Suning, which has tasted the sweetness of Xiao Yunfan, and Xia Fortune, a local luxury club that has the money to buy good defense players and set up a bus. It is said that they have abandoned it.
They contacted LeTV, which had been trembling and refusing to give money, Beijing Guoan, which contacted a mysterious real estate developer that was not short of money, and even Shanghai SIPG, which rarely bought players from other Chinese Super League teams.
Judging from the quotations, none are less than 80 million.
In fact, transfer is not what Zhang Sheng needs to pay attention to right now. Whether it is Ben Alpha's transfer or Zhou Zhou's departure, they are all things that have been determined or expected for a long time.
Now what Zhang Sheng needs to consider is how to deal with the fact that Chavez is injured and unable to play, and the team's physical fitness is in a mess.
In the last AFC Champions League game, apart from two players being injured, physical fitness was the team's biggest headache.
Zhang Sheng originally expected to have a big sword game against FC Seoul, but FC Seoul played as hard as if he was facing an enemy who killed his father, so Zhang Sheng had to let the players go all out.
The result was that the Longteng players who flew back to Jiangcheng after two consecutive away games generally had physical problems.
Of course, if it's worse, Shanghai SIPG is even worse.
In the last AFC Champions League, Shanghai SIPG was rubbed against the ground by Jeonbuk Hyundai.
SIPG only had four poor shots in the entire game, and only one shot on target.
Jeonbuk Hyundai had twenty shots in the game. In addition to four goals, they also had two goalposts. The ball possession rate of the whole game was less than 30% for SIPG.
Shanghai SIPG, who originally thought that after a 0:0 draw at home with their opponents, would be fine if they scored a goal in the away game, was obviously ill-prepared.
Shanghai SIPG, which has always been committed to cultivating its own players and using its own players, has learned a painful lesson from the Longteng team in purchasing defense players this time.
One is that the camp is full of injuries and the losses are not small. The other is that after returning from a disastrous defeat, morale is low. There are too many variables in this round of focus matches before the end of the Chinese Super League break.
