Wu Lei is a brother of the national football team and is currently the most expensive player in Chinese football, reaching 1 million euros. However, in the last two seasons, he has played very badly at the club, scoring only one goal in the league and has become a marginal figure in Espanyol, which is completely inconsistent with the image of the top players in Chinese football.
In this regard, the "People's Daily", which has always been known for its sharpness and strictness, also published an article entitled "How big is the gap between Wu Lei and Sun Xingyu", which triggered deep thinking and heated discussion among fans. After all, Wu Lei and Son Xingyu are both very popular players in Asia. The South Korean team where Son Heung-min is located is also the object of the national football team in recent years that it has been trying to catch up and surpass, and once this article was issued, it received widespread attention. This time, the People's Daily directly named Wu Lei, and also hoped that Wu Lei could be like a big brother like Sun Xingyu.
In the article, the People's Daily did not shy away from pointing out the three fatal gaps between Wu Lei and Sun Xingyu. The first is the value, Sun Xing is currently as high as 80 million euros, and Wu Lei is 1 million euros, at present, Sun Xingyu's personal value can buy 6 national footballs, which shows the disparity in the gap. Son heung-min is a fixture in the premier league's premier league, scoring 17 goals in the Premier League this season, second only to Salah in the top scorers list. And the total number of goals he has scored in his entire career has broken through the 150-goal mark.
Second, the People's Daily pointed out that Wu Lei and Sun Xingyu's career starting points were completely different. Wu Lei only invested in football with his interests and hobbies at that time, and only joined the Genbao Training Base when he graduated from elementary school and began to receive formal training. On the contrary, Sun Xingmin was born into a family of football, and his father was also a well-known football player, so he received strict and scientific training from an early age. When he was only 16 years old, he went to Germany for professional training, which was a treatment that Wu Lei could not enjoy.
Finally, the technology of the two is also a full range of gaps. Sun Xingmin is quite mature in terms of strength, speed, ball sense, rhythm, physical flexibility and other aspects, which is why he scores a lot on the pitch and scores in a very diverse way. Wu Lei only has unique achievements in this aspect of running position, and in other aspects, it can only be said to be the level of popularization. In addition, Sun Xing has reached its peak with his handsome appearance and years of high-profile performance at Tottenham, which is unmatched by Wu Lei.
It can be said that this time the People's Daily ruthlessly exposed Wu Lei's shortcomings, which also surprised the fans. After all, China's media have adhered to the tradition of reporting good news rather than worry, and as long as they have achieved a little success, they will exaggerate and praise it. But this time the People's Daily is very objective, these shortcomings are indeed Wu Lei's existence, I believe that this is also to better spur Wu Lei, after all, he is the banner and symbol of Chinese football, only if he progresses, the national football team can enhance its popularity, and it is expected that Wu Lei can complete the transformation as soon as possible.
