I like Cao Yunding very much, and I have always had a very flowing momentum, which is rare among Chinese players, but the evaluation of him among Shenhua fans is very polarized, some of them like him very much like me, and some of them think that he is a cancer that must be cleaned up. Recall carefully, the statement about his cancer roughly began in the 2019 season, that season Shenhua results plummeted, long-term wandering in the relegation zone, many fans think that Cao Yunding is dissatisfied with the coach's technical tactics and personnel arrangements, so lead some players to do things, so that the team is always difficult to unite, I am as unclear as the general public about the inside story of the Shenhua locker room, it is inconvenient to comment on the above things here, but the performance of the players on the pitch I understand, then we will take a look at it today, What exactly is cao Yunding's performance on the court?
Cao Yunding was in the game
Cao Yunding is 32 years old this year, this age is very delicate for Shenhua players, Wu Chengying, Qi-Hong, Shen-Si, Mao Jianqing, Mao Yijun, Zhang Yuning, etc. are all retired at this age or before, Cao Yunding is more likely to be injured than the above players, because he belongs to the speed player, below the calf are precision components, a careless injury, will have a great impact on him, but we can also see that since the transfer of Shenhua in the 2011 season, Cao Yunding, as the main force of the team, participated in almost 95% of shenhua's league, which can be called a full-industrious model.
Cao Yun fixed the shot
Cao Yunding's main area of activity is on the left side of the frontcourt, he generally does not return to defense, only responsible for attack, which is the main reason why many fans are dissatisfied with him: he feels that he is too lazy and contributes too little to the defensive end of the team. Realistically speaking, this is indeed a big problem, we can see that in this year's league, Yu Hanchao and Bassogo, who also played on the wing, are very deep in their defense, but Cao Yunding's physical fitness limits his pursuit, and we do see him walking around when his teammates are playing defensively!
Shenhua's left and right wings
However, at the offensive end, Cao Yunding does have a very strong ability, he can cross from the bottom, and the arc and landing point of the pass are also very good, he can also cut inside along the line of the big penalty area, shoot at the top of the arc to score, and he can also form a combination with the left defender inserted at the back to break through the opponent's defense. The following shot is Cao Yunding's beautiful long-range shot into Guoan this year, the shooting area is where he is usually very good at, we can see that the defense of him is Guoan's iron waist Chi Zhongguo, Chi Zhongguo is known for being good at running, small in stature, it is not easy to get rid of his defense, but Cao Yunding still shook open the gap and found the opportunity to hit the goal. With these few seconds alone, Cao Yunding must be ranked in the top three among the domestic left-side offensive players.
Cao Yunding scored a beautiful goal
Let's look at the goal that Cao Yunding scored into Evergrande on behalf of Shenhua last year, and the ball that scored into Guoan is the same, Cao Yunding is the same as the ball, this time the person who intercepted him is Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi is far worse than Chi Zhongguo's movement, Cao Yunding is still calm and leisurely a long-range shot, the ball still landed on the right side of the goal.
Cao Yunding's signature goal for the 2020 season
In 2019, Cao Yunding was controversial, but in the away match against Shandong Luneng, he still staged a very wonderful performance: shortly after the opening, his one-foot cross caused the Luneng player's oolong ball, and Shenhua led by one goal!
Assist Oolong
Immediately afterward, Shenhua took advantage of a free kick opportunity in front of the field to score another goal by Cao Yunding. We can see that this ball is completely designed around Cao Yunding, that is, to let him pull his feet in the area he is best at, and this ball shows Cao Yunding's strong forwardcourt scoring ability.
Cao Yunding scored a set-piece
Finally, to sum up, Cao Yunding himself is still very loyal to Shenhua, and his ability is also very good, but his own physical function may indeed not be suitable for continuing to occupy a large amount of playing time, his speed advantage is gradually losing, his ability to chase back defense has basically disappeared, and in today's increasingly focused on the integrity of the team, his roaming front court playing style is more and more unsuitable for the whole team. When we see that left players such as Wu Xinghan and Gao Zhunyi can enter the national team, and when Cao Yunding cannot be selected for the national team several times, I think it is time to face up to his own problems!
Cao Yunding kissed the team emblem
In fact, now Cao Yunding should exist as an alternate option for the team, and when the team needs to score goals or can't open the situation, send him up to rush, shoot a shot, and play a high-level game for an hour and a half, which is of great help to the team. And once he is on the field, Yu Hanchao's playing time will definitely be compressed, as far as Yu Hanchao's performance in the past two years is concerned, it has been significantly better than Cao Yunding, so that the use of players in reverse is not something that a professional team should have, or hope to change it!
