Reporter Chen Yong reported that on January 7, Li Xiaopeng's first roster after coaching the Chinese national team was announced, according to the players' league performance, Peng I gave more players the opportunity, a total of 52 players were called in, and the list of 25 people for the two round of 12 matches in January was decided according to the training and physical condition.
Among the 52 players, 10 were newly selected for the national team, namely Hou Sen (33), Wang Zhifeng (25), Wei Zhen (25), Yan Dinghao (24), Gao Tianyi (24), Dai Weijun (23), Liu Ruovan (23), Jiang Shenglong (22), Han Jiaqi (22) and Wu Shaocong (22).
Among these 10 people, in addition to Hou Sen who is over 30 years old, he is either young or in the middle of the game, and the 33-year-old Hou Sen is also the peak age in the goalkeeper position.
Young players such as Yan Dinghao, Gao Tianyi, Dai Weijun, Han Jiaqi, Wu Shaocong, etc., have a very high voice for their selection of the national team, and their selection can be described as the expectation of everyone. At present, the most optimistic is Yan Dinghao, who is also known as the future main midfielder of the national team, with up to 6 assists this season.
It is worth noting that although Dai Weijun has obtained the qualification to settle in the Mainland, he settled in the collective hukou of the Deep Foot Club in Longgang District. However, his membership has not yet been transferred, and he is not yet qualified to represent the national football team. This time selected for the national team, Li Xiaopeng hopes to better examine him. Because from the perspective of the future, his qualification problem is not big, 23-year-old Dai Weijun, who can contribute to the national team, is very important to the future of the national team.
Among the young players, Duan Liu Yu was not selected, on the one hand, it may be related to the number of players selected by Shandong Taishan, on the other hand, Duan Liu Yu's playing time this year has been somewhat limited, this season he has started 10 substitutes 5 times, played 550 minutes, scored 3 goals, 2 assists, the efficiency is good, but the playing time is indeed a little less, only 27.7% of the total playing time, like Guo Tianyu, there are 1575 minutes of playing time.
Wu Lei, Li Lei, as well as naturalized players Alain, Luo Guofu, Axon and Fernando, cannot return to China for training for the time being, and will go to Japan to meet the national team according to their own situation.
Gao Zhunyi would have been named to the national team squad, but he was injured in the final two rounds of the league and could only rest temporarily. As for Kaldek, who is concerned by many fans, naturalization has encountered great obstacles, and the possibility of successful naturalization is relatively small.
The 10 newly selected players, as well as Zhao Hongluo, Xie Pengfei, Shi Ke, Wang Tong, Liu Yang, Tan Long and other players who returned to the national team, are all because of their outstanding performances in the league.
Zhao Hongluo has played well in Wuhan this season, as a left-back, starting 2 substitutes in 14 starts, scoring 4 goals, and 1 assist, handing over many offensive answers that forwards can't achieve.
Xie Pengfei became the core of the offensive end of the Cangzhou Lions after the departure of Akhmedov and Muric, and in the second stage of the relegation group, the Cangzhou Lions played a wave of 4 wins and 2 draws, smoothly and smoothly relegated, and Xie Pengfei's excellent performance was inseparable.
Shi Ke is the main center-back of the Taishan team, this season's performance is steady, returning to the national team is reasonable; Wang Tong has been affected by injuries this season, but he is extremely fast, excellent defensive ability, and assist ability has also improved, there are 2 assists in the case of 3 games in the first 8 games, considering that right-back Tang Miao and Wang Gang have been injured, Wang Tong's selection and even entering the final list of the national team is a normal choice.
Liu Yang was once the main national team player of the 2019 Asian Cup, and then there were some ups and downs in his performance, but he performed well this season, scoring 1 goal and 2 assists in the league and scoring 2 world waves in the FA Cup.
Tan Long performed quite well in Yatai, scoring 3 goals and 4 assists, and the impact was very good.
Because there are more selected players, the coaching team of "Peng I" is relatively large, 15 people assist Li Xiaopeng, however, most of the coaches are temporary help, Chen Yang is the coach of Changchun Yatai, Yu Genwei is the coach of Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, Li Jinyu is the coach of Wuhan team, Zheng Zhi is the executive manager of Guangzhou team, they all have their own jobs, and will return when their respective teams start winter training.
Wang Liang and Li Leilei are assistant coaches and goalkeeper coaches of the Wuhan team, and there is a high probability that they will continue to assist Li Jinyu in the future, and will not stay in the national team coaching staff for a long time.
If he can enter the country smoothly, Pep will lock in the status of chief assistant coach, who has previously assisted Li Xiaopeng in Shandong Taishan, and Li Xiaopeng coached Wuhan in the 2021 season, once hoping that he could join, but for objective reasons he was not able to enter.
