Turkey announced the arrangement of 5 captains: Wu Xi's team exposed the talent disconnection, and half of the starting 11 were open
This week's Asian Cup is about to start, and for all teams to prepare for the tournament, they are trying to determine this final matter and try to make a good start. After all, this is half the battle! The national football team also officially announced its captain to the media, which can be regarded as finalizing the key candidate.

Among them, the veteran Wu Xi is the first captain, and his seniority is the oldest, and the time in the team, the number of games, and the actual contribution are relatively the most. Therefore, from the perspective of "annual merit sequence", there is indeed no problem and it is in line with international practice. It's just that Wu Xi's qualification as the captain also clearly conveyed other news to everyone: that is, he will inevitably continue to support the midfield defense of this national football team, which is the guarantee of the main back.
At such an old age, is Wu Xi okay? It is a point that many green fans are very worried about, this is not groundless, objective evaluation, after the captain of the national football team left Jiangsu Suning (disbanded), the overall performance is declining very fast. Although he can still play in his local club, he is really far from what he used to be in terms of ability. Isn't it inappropriate to arrange for him to come first?
However, the coach was also very helpless, and Li Ke's departure made the already lack of reliable talent even more serious. In contrast, Japanese veterans such as Maya Yoshida, Yuto Nagatomo, and Hiroki Sakai desperately want to continue to win glory for their country, but Coach Moribo did not give them a chance at all. After all, they have so much talent at their disposal.
The second captain is Zhang Linpeng, and then the order is Wu Lei, Jiang Guangtai, and Yan Junling. Obviously, Zhang Linpeng, as a veteran who has played 100 national team games, is still qualified to appear as a vice captain. Similar to Wu Xi, his personal performance has also declined significantly, although he can still maintain attendance, but his performance is definitely far worse than in previous years. This is also helpless and forced.
The ranking of Wu Lei, Jiang Guangtai, and Yan Junling basically does not have too many problems. If you have to point out the problem, it may be that Jiang Guangtai is a potential "problem item". After all, he has only been in the national football team for a relatively small time, and he has not played too much in the game for the time being, so he has become a candidate for captaincy, is it more symbolic?
After recognizing the above people as the captains of this national football team, the basic arrangement and framework are about to come out. Yan Junling, Zhang Linpeng, and Jiang Guangtai's defensive combination will be the main choice, and they will most likely start with old friends such as Liu Yang and Li Lei. Midfielder Wu Xi will definitely get the qualification of the starter, and the other partner is estimated to be the "winner" of Wang Shangyuan and Wang Qiuming's competition. In terms of strikers, Wu Lei must be the main force and key person, and it is estimated that Zhang Yuning will cooperate with him first, Tan Longhou, and arrange a big center to support him forward and give full play to the advantage of impact, which is still the right choice.
Also, as long as Wei Shihao is not injured, there should be no problem in qualifying for a starter. In this way, most of the main team of the national football team is basically in the state of "open cards", and the characteristics of the personnel and the situation of play, the opponents are basically familiar. If you want to play a strange effect, you still have to have the coaching staff to strategize. After all, if the strength is not enough to show the level, but it is "forced" to show the card, it will lead to a temporary disadvantage for the national football team.
