There is no doubt that after successfully reaching the final four of the FA Cup, the Taishan team is the team with the best chance of winning a double this season. However, the national team's game mission completely disrupted the main framework of the Taishan team, because there were 7 main players including Guo Tianyu and Kim Kyung-do who followed the national football team on an expedition to West Asia. However, according to the "Sports Weekly" news, next month the national football team will once again go to West Asia to compete in the top 12, and Li Tie is likely to significantly reduce the number of international footballers, after all, about 20 players plus Wu Lei, who returned from Espanyol, are enough to cope with the two round of 12 matches with Oman and Australia.
If the news is true, it also means that at least four Tarzan internationals will remain at the club to prepare for the upcoming FA Cup and the second stage of the league in December. At present, in the national football team, Xu Xin, Guo Tianyu and Wang Dalei, the three Taishan players who previously accompanied the team to West Asia, did not get the opportunity to appear in the first four rounds of the round of 12. Liu Binbin, who won the opportunity to play against Vietnam, will also be the target of the defeat, although there is a certain speed advantage, but the attack of the national football frontcourt mainly relies on naturalized players. Liu Binbin's characteristics will not play much of an advantage against Oman and Australia, and his role in defense is not as good as his club teammate Wu Xinghan.
The shortage of personnel for the Taishan team is a problem that coach Hao Wei has mentioned many times and cannot solve, in the second leg of the FA Cup 1/4 final between Taishan and Wuhan, Hao Wei even let the defender Zhao Jianfei act as a striker in the last moment. After Fellaini was injured, The Taishan team's attack was basically paralyzed, but fortunately, the opponent before the FA Cup was not strong, and the team also entered the final four very smoothly. Three days later, in the SEMIFINALS OF THE FA CUP, Taishan will face Henan, which has excellent defensive ability, and if Guo Tianyu and Liu Binbin can stay in the team, it will greatly solve the problem of no forward available.
What's more, Tarzan is also one of the few teams this season who aims to win the league title. If half of the main squad follows the national football team to West Asia, the back and forth and the isolation are bound to have a great impact on the second stage of league preparation. According to the current situation of the national football team, there is basically no possibility of entering the World Cup, and if it loses, it will face the condemnation of fans across the country, and its psychology and self-confidence will suffer a serious blow. Although any player wants to be selected for the national team to compete for the country, the current level and environment of the national football team are still far from the World Cup. With the club having a chance to win the double, There is no need for Tarzan players to go far.
Although there has always been a lot of controversy about Li Tie's practice of not being important to Taishan players, in this special season, Taishan fans should thank Li Tie for his "no" grace. At present, several potential opponents of The Tarzan Double Champion Road this season are Shenhua, Haigang and Guoan. The state of Guoan this season is very unstable, and the international footballers such as Zhang Xizhe and Wang Gang have been scrapped by Li Tie. Wang Shenchao of The Harbor and Wu Xi of Shenhua are important players of the club, and Li Tie's excessive use makes it difficult for them to have the energy to face the club's matches. So it seems that according to the momentum of the Tarzan team this season, coupled with the 4 internationals who returned early, the double champion this season should be stable.
