Following the supplementary recruitment of Zheng Zheng into the national football team, Li Tie entered the national football team on August 23 to recruit Henan Jianye player Wang Shangyuan.
Supplementing Zheng Zheng, the outside world can be described as a cheer, because Zheng Zheng is an all-rounder in the back line, can play both full-back and central defender, and this season's performance in Shandong Luneng is also impeccable, almost perfect. In addition, Zheng Zheng is diligent and earnest, and his spiritual attributes are first-class. Li Tie recruited him, which can greatly improve the thickness of the national football team's lineup and make his platoon deployment more comfortable.
Compared with zheng zheng, Li Tie supplemented Wang Shangyuan but attracted a boo from the outside world, and some netizens even believed that Li Tie was nepotism, using familiarity without life, and recruited a related household. Why do netizens think so? Quite simply, before Li Tie coached the national football team, Wang Shangyuan had never been selected for the national team once (U21 national football team and U22 national football team did not count), but after Li Tie coached the national football team, Wang Shangyuan had been selected for the national team many times. Therefore, people regard Wang Shangyuan as Li Tie's "related household", which is also forgivable.
But in fact, Wang Shangyuan is really not Li Tie's "related household". When Li Tie was an assistant coach at Evergrande, Wang Shangyuan had not yet joined Evergrande; since then, Li Tie has coached Hebei Huaxia Happiness and Wuhan Zhuoer, while Wang Shangyuan has played in Evergrande and Jianye respectively, and Li Tie has no intersection. Therefore, the reason why Wang Shangyuan has been favored by Li Tie again and again is obviously not how familiar they are, but li Tie really sees some advantage or some tactical value in Wang Shangyuan. As for which point Li Tie has looked at Wang Shangyuan, we, as fans, have no way of knowing. I am afraid that only Li Tie himself knows this best.
However, one thing is certain, Wang Shangyuan is no longer the Wang Shangyuan who got by at Evergrande and was criticized by fans. After the tree moved to death, the people moved to life, Wang Shangyuan immediately started his own counterattack life after joining Henan Jianye in the second half of the 2018 season. In Evergrande, he not only gained a firm foothold in Henan Jianye and sat firmly in the starting position, but also became an important player for Jianye's relegation success for 3 consecutive seasons. So far, he has played 65 games for Henan Jianye, in addition to being defensively sound, he has also contributed 5 goals and 2 assists to the team. On the third day of Shibei, when he was impressed, perhaps Li Tie had just seen this valuable transformation in Wang Shangyuan's body and recruited him into his army.
In addition, Wang Shangyuan is also a more versatile player, can play both the back and can play the defender, the national football team recruited him, no doubt can greatly improve the thickness of the national football team, as well as enrich the team's tactical play. Li Tie recruited him, and perhaps there were also considerations in this regard.
All in all, the importance of the round of 12 for the national football team is extraordinary, Li Tie can not be completely based on personal preferences in the selection and employment of international footballers, since he chose Wang Shangyuan, then Wang Shangyuan must have attracted his superiority, this, we should believe Li Tie. After all, the fans are not coaches, and we may not understand Li Tie's world.
