After a long four-month wait, the second phase of the Chinese Super League this season is finally about to start, and for the "deputy squad leader" Dalian Renren, the goal is actually very simple - to get enough points in the next 8 games to retain the Chinese Super League qualification.

Although the team's ranking in the standings is somewhat awkward, Dalian coach Jose, who attended the pre-match press conference yesterday, perhaps because of the change of strength of the three foreign aides in his hands, always has a smile on his face, and when introducing the preparations, he said: "We have been preparing for this game for four months, and we have been armed to the teeth." The players are very motivated because the waiting period is really too long and the players definitely prefer to play. Luckily, we've come to Suzhou and are ready, and foreign aid is basically back. Subsequently, when asked about the relegation pressure that needs to be faced and the ability of young players to withstand pressure, Jose also gave his own opinion, "There is definitely pressure in football, there will be pressure on the team and individuals, it is important that you believe that you can win on the field, I believe that we have done a very good job in the preparation period." At that time in Dalian, because of the impact of the epidemic, it was impossible to ask the team to play a warm-up game to test the training results, and if there was a warm-up game, it could test the physical fitness and training of the players. However, judging from the state reflected in the training, the players do not have to worry about it, they are already well prepared. When it comes to platooning, I don't judge the players based on their age, but on their abilities. In the first stage, the problem we faced was that the squad was not very neat, and sending young players to play was also to increase their experience and feel the rhythm of the game, including the later cup matches, so that young players could prepare for the next game, no matter how old he was, at key moments, when he was needed to stand up. For the team to have three foreign aides to press the team, José naturally feels that it is a good thing: "Three foreign aides are in place can give us a lot of confidence, before we did have difficulties in scoring goals, Lin Liangming scored 5 goals, but he has now suffered some injuries, and now the return of foreign aid is very important to us." ”

After almost a year, Larson will be playing for the team again today, and he is also considered a key factor in solving the team's previous weakness. Speaking about the game, Larson said: "It's true that it's been a long time since the last game, but as the manager said, we're ready. Personally, although it was the first game after a long absence, I believe that I was well prepared and very much looking forward to the first game. ”
