This afternoon, the Chinese Football Association officially announced the list of the first training of the 2022 national football team and the first training list of the 2022 U23 national football team. Among them, the national football team has gathered a total of 52 players, including 7 under-22 stars, and 6 naturalized players. Chinese Super League champion Shandong Taishan became the team that contributed the most international footballers, with as many as 10 players selected. If it were not for Wu Xinghan's serious injury, Shandong Taishan could have formed a starting lineup.
However, among the 10 players selected by Shandong Taishan for the national football team, there is one less supernova who is called by fans, and can even be called a talented midfielder, he is Duan Liuyu, who is known as a scholarly player. Duan Liu Yu, as a rising superstar in the past 2 seasons, has always attracted the attention of fans. Even, some fans regard him and Yan Dinghao, as well as Dai Weijun, as the strongest midfield combination in the future of the national football team. Today, Yan Dinghao and Dai Weijun were promoted to international footballers, but Duan Liuyu was excluded from the list, and fans shouted pity.
After the Chinese Football Association announced the national football training list, it successively announced the training list of the U23 national football team, and what was unexpected was that the 23-year-old Duan Liu Yu was once again defeated. First, let's take a look at the training list of the U23 national football team.
There are a total of 25 players in this list, namely Abra Khan Halik and Liu Zhurun from Shanghai Harbor, Wen surnamed Xiaojun from Shanghai Shenhua, Mo Xuchen from Hebei Team, Niu Ziyi from Songshan Longmen, He Yupeng, Huang Jiahui, Shan Huanhuan, Tao Qianglong and Wang Xianjun from Dalian, Xu Haofeng and Ye Lijiang Schnall from Shenzhen, Zhou Junchen from Qingdao, Fang Hao from Wuhan, DiliImiti Land and Sun Qinhan from Changchun Yatai, Peng Peng and Cai Mingmin from Kunshan FC, Chen Guokang and Su Shihao of Meizhou Hakka. Qi Yuxi of Heilongjiang Bingcheng Football, Xu Yue of Wuhan Three Towns, Huang Zihao of Nanjing City, Chen Xiao of Qingdao Qingchun Island, Li Hao of Beijing Wanda.
Attentive fans may have noticed that there are no players from Shandong Taishan, Guangzhou and Beijing Guoan in this list. In fact, this is not surprising, because the powerful players in these 3 teams have been selected for the national football team (except for Duan Liuyu). Now it seems that only Duan Liu Yu has been abandoned. So what happened to Duan Liu Yu, his performance this season is a bit "injured Zhongyong"?
Of course not, this season Liu Yu disappeared from the fans' vision, or rarely appeared. Not because he didn't perform well enough, but because Hao Wei's coach gave him too little playing time. This season, Duan Liu Yu has only made 15 appearances in the Chinese Super League and averaged 36 minutes per game, even less than the time spent in the first game of the 2019 season in the Chinese Super League. But even then he scored three goals and one assist. So, hao wei guidance does not give Duan Liu Yu more playing time?
The reason is simple, Shandong Taishan's goal this season is to win the championship, and it will definitely not be used to cultivate new talents. If Duan Liu Yu wants to get more playing time, he must perform better than the players in the same position. In the midfield, Sun Zhunhao, Fellaini, Xu Xin, Moises, Duan LiuYu seemed to be no one can compare. Guo Tianyu, 22 years old in the front line, has mushroomed this season, which is also comparable to Duan Liu Yu. Therefore, Duan Liu Yu can only become a rotating player. This is like the previous seasons of Guangzhou's international team playing as a substitute, only the strongest state can get the opportunity to start.
Even so, Duan Liu Yu meets the requirements of not being a national football team, so it is okay to be selected into the U23 national football team. According to personal ability, Duan Liu Yu is a well-deserved U23 core. However, Duan Liuyu, as a player born on July 24, 1998, turned 24 in the middle of this year, and there is no point in the U23 national football team recruiting him to join the team. Therefore, Duan Liuyu failed to be selected for the national football team and the U23 national football team, not because he was "injured Zhongyong". I didn't make it to the national football team because I had too little time to play in the middle and beyond and I didn't have the opportunity to prove myself. The failure of the U23 national football team is because of the age of not being up and down.
Between Duan Liu Yu's position or ranking in the Shandong Taishan team, and the positioning of Shandong Taishan in the new season (continue to compete for the championship). Personally, I think it is time for Duan Liu Yu to consider changing places, even if it is to loan to other teams, or to participate in the Football Association's plan to stay in the West, and to seek a club that can play as soon as possible. Once you miss this optimal growth age, although it cannot be said that it is injured, but my career is probably like this.
