Although the Chinese Football Association has made sufficient preparations in all aspects in order to prepare for the World Preliminary Round, the Chinese men's football team still returned home in the round of 12, especially the historic loss to Vietnam on the road, which made Chinese football fall into an unprecedented low.
The poor performance of the Chinese men's football team in this World Preliminary Tournament has also directly affected the domestic leagues at all levels. In the case of the overall depressed environment of Chinese football, most Chinese Super League clubs have to reduce their expenses, the problem of wage arrears has not been solved, and the salary limit has been put on the surface.
It can be said that after 10 years of "false prosperity", today's Chinese Super League has shown the most real side. After the tide of capital receded, only a group of "naked swimming" clubs remained.
In this context, this year's Chinese Super League has also begun to re-blow a "Korean tide". Many clubs have brought in foreign aid from the K-League, while others have hired Korean coaches.
Among these South Korean managers, there is an old acquaintance of Chinese fans, he is the famous coach Li Zhangsu, who has coached many Chinese Super League teams such as Chongqing Lifan, Beijing Guoan and Guangzhou Evergrande.
Lee Jang-so, who has returned to the Chinese Super League again, coached the newly promoted Local Giants Shenzhen team in the Chinese Super League in previous seasons. Shenzhen Club's intention to hire Lee Zhang-so is also very obvious, that is, it is hoped that this "iron marshal" can instill the most fundamental things in football into the hearts of every player.
Veteran Chinese Super League fans know that Lee Jang-so is a very tough Korean coach, who is very strict with the players in the team, paying special attention to the physical condition and game attitude of the players.
Therefore, no matter which Chinese Super League team he is coaching, Lee Chang-so has always been known for paying close attention to the physical training of players. The training method of practicing too fiercely and "unkind" also made him offend many domestic players, and was therefore "done" by the players in the team.
Despite this, Lee Chang-so did not compromise, and he still insisted on using his own training methods. As soon as he became the manager of the Shenzhen team, he began to pay close attention to the physical training of the players in the team.
And those players who have become accustomed to high salaries and often fail to work in the game now finally have a hard time to pass. Recently, it was reported from the reporter accompanying the team that many players of the Shenzhen team are now completely unable to keep up with the training rhythm of Li Zhangsu. At the end of each day's training, they all complained that they had never taken such a large amount of exercise before.
In fact, this is exactly what Shenzhen Club wants to achieve, through Lee Zhang-so's "devil" training, to eliminate some players whose abilities cannot meet the requirements of the team. Anyone who does not want to participate in such training can go, either transfer or loan, and the club will solve the problem of unpaid wages when they leave the team.
Previously, shenzhen had news that some veteran members of the Shenzhen team took the lead in the strike, on the one hand, because the club has not made up for the arrears of salary, on the other hand, it is also to express dissatisfaction with the team's high-intensity training.
Judging from the current personnel structure of the Shenzhen team, there are too many veterans in the team, gao Lin, Wang Yongpo, Sun Ke, Jiang Zhipeng and Zhang Lu, who used to be international players, all joined the Shenzhen team after the age of 30.
And they have now become the first batch of Shenzhen clubs to be purged this season, not only because they are too old to adapt to Lee Zhangsu's large sports training, but also because their salaries are too high, and it is not too much to use "high salary and low energy" to describe these "past" veterans.
In addition, mesozoic players such as Mi Haolun, Pei Shuai and Zheng Dalun are also likely to be cleared out of the team along with the above veterans because of the same problem.
Judging from the current situation, once Gao Lin, Wang Yongpo and other veterans leave the team, they are afraid that it will be difficult for them to find a new home. Now the situation in the Chinese Super League is clear to everyone, many young players, and even some international players are worried about not finding new jobs, not to mention these thirty-five and six, veterans who have entered the final stage of their careers.
Therefore, now these Shenzhen veterans only have 2 ways to choose: either fight to keep up with the team's training rhythm and fight for another 1-2 year contract for themselves; or settle the rest of the accounts with the club and directly announce their retirement. Personally, I feel that many of them will choose the second way, what do you think?
