2022 is coming as scheduled, with the end of the short holiday after New Year's Day, for Chinese football, in addition to the just-concluded Chinese Super League and the upcoming FA Cup final, the Chinese men's football team will soon restart the trip to the round of 12 has also become the focus of fans' attention.
For the Chinese men's football team, which currently has little hope of qualifying, whether Li Xiaopeng's arrival can bring "earth-shaking" changes to the Chinese team is also the topic that fans mention the most, and just yesterday, the Chinese men's football official announced the first training list after the new coach took office, and surprisingly, the list released this time also set a new record for the Chinese men's football training list - the largest number of people. As many as 52 players are on the list, not only are all internationals listed, Li Xiaopeng has called 10 young players into the training list, and the players who entered the training list for the first time include Yan Dinghao (23 years old) and Wu Shaocong of Guangzhou Team, Hou Sen (32 years old) and Gao Tianyi (23 years old) of Guoan, Wei Zhen (24 years old) and Li Shenglong of Haigang (29 years old), Wang Tong (28 years old) and Liu Yang (26 years old) of Shandong Taishan Team, Jiang Shenglong of Chongqing (21 years old), Han Jiaqi (21 years old) in Guangzhou City, Dai Weijun (22 years old) in Shenzhen, Liu Ruovan (22 years old) in Chengdu Rongcheng, and Wang Zhifeng (24 years old) in Wuhan. It is not difficult to see that Li Xiaopeng may use the old and new methods to quickly adapt to the pressure of the national team, and it is also possible that as some media speculate, it is only the use of confrontations in the national team to improve team cooperation, but no matter what, this massive list of training personnel has the posture of Lang Ping in the past when guiding the selection of Chinese women's volleyball players, and for Li Xiaopeng, who has just taken office, creating more selectivity may also be a reasonable solution.
Not only the number of players is large, but the members of the coaching staff are also luxurious, including Jose Pep, Chen Yang, Yu Genwei, Li Jinyu, Gao Yao, Zhao Junzhe, Sun Jihai, Zheng Zhi, Sun Xiang, Shao Jiayi, Wang Liang, Ou Chuliang, Li Leilei, Hu Yu, Owen Wilke, after watching the coaching team lineup, even many fans joked that today's national football team may not be able to play the coaching team, such a huge gathering of players and coaches is even ridiculed by some people as "three stinky cobblers top Zhuge Liang". But at least the emergence of a large number of people can avoid the emergence of a hall of words, but whether so many people will have differences of opinion when deploying and making decisions has become another drawback.
Seeing that the match with Japan on January 27 is imminent, there is no problem in the national football team to immediately convene training, but whether the lack of naturalized players will become the biggest deficiency of the Chinese national football team has basically become inevitable, which makes it difficult for Li Xiaopeng to rely on naturalized players in unknown state to play against Japan in the future, then the selection of the best national team has become the fundamental purpose of this "audition", so in these more than 50 teams, I am afraid that the last to stay in the national football team will not exceed 25 people. So for the previous Team Structure of the Chinese men's football team when Li Tie led the team, whether Li Xiaopeng dared to directly use young newcomers has also become the biggest suspense of the future national football team on the Japanese stadium.
After experiencing many ups and downs and changing coaches, the Chinese men's football team will re-embark on the journey of the round of 12, it can be said that the last few games are for honor, whether it is the away battle with Japan at the end of this month (January 27) or the away match with Vietnam on the first day of the Chinese New Year (February 1), it is the focus of countless fans, and the fans in the Japanese battle are about to be generous, but the away collision with Vietnam may not really be relaxed, and the culprit of this problem is probably our "Fan Da general"...
For Chinese football, the disaster-ridden 2021 has finally passed, and the 2022 year that is not optimistic has also come, but as long as there is still hope, as long as there are still people who love football, Chinese fans will not give up, and I believe that the suffering of Chinese football will also be reborn at some point in time, just hope that this moment can come soon...
