Li Yuanyi does not have to worry about being suspended, Ivan can resolve the crisis by using one person, and his comprehensive ability surpasses that of Li Yuanyi
After defeating Singapore 4:1, the Chinese men's football team's hopes of advancing to the round of 18 of the World Preliminary Tournament have greatly increased. At present, the Chinese men's football team has 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss after 4 rounds of group play, accumulating 7 points, ranking second in Group C.
However, in the 4:1 victory over Singapore, although the Chinese men's football team won a victory as expected, it also paid a lot of price for it. In the game, the leading striker of the national football team, Wu Lei, accumulated two yellow cards and will miss the next game against the Thai team. What's even more of a headache for coach Ivankovic is that Li Yuan, the main midfielder, fouled a shovel and directly received a red card, and the next game against the Thai team will also be suspended.
Wu Lei's absence is not difficult for Ivankovic, after all, Wei Shihao, Ackerson, and even the naturalized player Alan who was not selected this time can play the position of Wu Lei. And midfielder Li Yuanyi was banned this time, which is a bit troublesome. The reason is very simple, the Chinese men's football midfield talent is withering, it is difficult to find a talent like Li Yuanyi, the selected midfield international Wang Shangyuan, Gao Tianyi and Cheng Jin, either lack the hardness of interception and steal, or lack of control to move forward, in short, among the existing international players, it is really difficult to find a replacement for Li Yuanyi.
However, Ivankovic does not have to be at a loss for this, although it is difficult to find a replacement for Li Yuanyi in the current national team, but in the wider Chinese Super League, it should be possible to find a replacement with Li Yuanyi's strength. Someone recommended the midfielder Li Titian of the Zhejiang team, but the author thought that although Li Titian's personal ability was good, the hardness of interception and steals was not enough, and he was older. There is a local midfielder who is more suitable than Li Titian to replace Li Yuanyi in the midfield of the national football team, and he is none other than former coach Jankovic's former favorite general Wang Qiuming.
Wang Qiuming is 31 years old and is in the years of professional football. He may not be tall, but he has great skill on his feet and a good sense of the big picture. Judging from the data of the Chinese Super League on behalf of Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, he is not only good at intercepting and stealing, but also has a good ability to advance in the front court. The most rare thing is that he, like Li Yuanyi, can pass and shoot, and is very lethal in the frontcourt. Statistics show that in the past two seasons, he has contributed 11 goals and 2 assists in 57 appearances for Tianjin. Although he has only played two games in the new season, he has scored one goal for the team, which can be called a rare "waist striker" in the Chinese Super League.
Whether it is personal ability, competition experience, or psychological quality, Wang Qiuming is not inferior to Li Yuanyi in any way, and even significantly surpasses Li Yuanyi in terms of comprehensive ability. Therefore, Ivankovic does not have to worry about Li Yuanyi's suspension. Wang Qiuming is the best replacement. Although Wang Qiuming was not selected for the national football team this time, Ivan can completely reuse him, because he is very useful and completely trustworthy.
