In the match against the Cangzhou Lions, Shandong Taishan team's new foreign aid Pato suffered an injury retirement, and in two consecutive Chinese Super League matches, Shandong Taishan team had players injured and retired, and Cressan's health did not recover to 100% best. The seemingly luxurious offensive end of the Shandong Taishan team is actually a lot of worries. Players are injured in a large area, and attrition may occur at any time, coupled with the recent shortcomings of lumbar weakness and the instability of the back line. If the team wants to keep the top three or even hit higher places, it must increase the rotation. This is no small challenge for Coach Choi Kang-hee.
First: The foreign aid is not in good physical condition, and Pato is suspected of pitting the Tarzan team.
Cressan's physical condition this season has not been good since he retired from injury, and Cui Kangxi originally expected to give Cressan a longer period of recuperation, but the loss with Chengdu Rongcheng made Cui Kangxi dare not arrange Cressan to play.
Against the Cangzhou Lions, Choi Kang-hee hopes to give Fellaini a chance to take a break, allowing the strikers to form a trident combination of Cressan and Pato and Moises. But with Pato's injury in the first half, Choi had to use Fellaini again. As Moises gets older, it is difficult to play multiple games in a row, and Judson's defensive attributes are indeed uncomfortable in the back line.
Pato's joining was originally a reinforcement for fans and the club, but from the state of performance, Pato is suspected of having an injury early, and the deal is likely to be pitted by the Indonesian team, otherwise it is unlikely that there will be a strain based on the playing time after Pato joined.
Second: Liu Binbin's injury retirement has a great impact on the rotation of Shandong Taishan team.
After Liu Binbin retired from injury, Choi Kangxi had many choices, but each choice did not use Liu Binbin and Chen Pulai to partner the two full-backs to be more effective, first using Cressan to replace Liu Binbin's position, but after Cressan pulled the side, the threat to the opposing goalkeeper plummeted after he was away from the goal. Then Liu Yang was given the place to replace Liu Binbin. In the last match against the Cangzhou Lions, although Liu Yang had two exquisite assists, he also had many individual breakthroughs. But overall, the threat of Liu Binbin at fullback is not a grade.
Because of Liu Binbin's injury retirement, Choi Kangxi must make personnel adjustments in the position of fullback, and the starting lineup is good arrangement, after all, the team's full-back personnel reserve is good. But who will be the backup for the full-backs has become a problem, Fernando is obviously not a good choice, if Liu Yang plays the full-back, then the full-backs will be affected. Coupled with the problem of lumbar weakness, players need to come up to it. Choi Kangxi's later change of formation was very influential.
Third: the problem of waist weakness and unstable guard status is Choi Kangxi's main topic in the near future.
With the current state of the Shandong Taishan team's back line, it is difficult to hold on if it encounters a top-ranked team. Especially after Chengdu Rongcheng won the Taishan team, many teams saw the way to defeat the Taishan team, that is, to use foreign aid to play defensive counterattack, reduce the entanglement of the midfield, and quickly find foreign aid with fast impact speed to break through the Taishan team's defense.
Choi Kangxi wants to solve the problem of defense, first of all, to increase the hardness in the back position, it is best to find a strong point that can defend against the opponent's main counterattack. Secondly, there must be a second line of defense in front of the guard line, and the opponent cannot be allowed to directly face the old back line of the Taishan team with a breakthrough.
To summarize:
Choi Kangxi's results in leading the team since he took office are very good, whether it is the team's on-field scramble or the rotation of players, Choi Kangxi has completed very perfectly. However, with the intensive schedule, Shandong Taishan team has different degrees of injury, and it is necessary to continue to stick to the rotation, and only by reducing some unnecessary attrition as much as possible can the integrity of the Taishan team's lineup be guaranteed. Especially the upcoming FA Cup match with Beijing Guoan and the upcoming AFC Champions League match, the test for Shandong Taishan team will not be less.
