Let's talk for the first time todayAFC Champions League: Shandong Taishan vs Gwangju FC
After the winter window, the lineup on Taishan's side has improved, while Gwangju's side is miserable, and the Korean media even used itThe Great ExodusThis kind of adjective.
Objectively, Gwangju's strength must have been seriously damaged,But Taishan's side can't be too optimistic, because many problems are still there, and I am afraid that they will not be solved in a short time.
The Korean media is not exaggerating, the loss of the main force on the Gwangju side is too heavy,Half of the starters ran away, even Zheng Haoyuan, the tactical core of the team's youth training for many years, ran away......
On the one hand, this is related to Gwangju's dismal financial situation, and it really can't give the players satisfactory treatment.
Gwangju is a particularly poor small team, and last summer window was banned from recruiting because of financial violations, and coach Lee Jung-hyo even asked about the salary of the Jeonbuk coach very rudely, and said that he wanted to compare with each other.Gwangju also needs to cut labor expenses in half this season, this is even worse, basically you can only give K2 level treatment.
On the other hand, it is also related to the instability of the military.
Because coach Lee Jung-hyo actually almost ran away, but in the end, Jeonbuk stepped on the brakes and chose the more famous Boyette, but everyone knows that he may not stay for long, after all, the treatment given to him by Gwangju is indeed too low.
So, not to mention that the main players wanted to run, even Lee Jung-hyo's loyal deputy Lee Jung-kyu ran away.
In this environment, if there is a better place to go, I am afraid that everyone wants to go.
But then again, Gwangju is a special team,They have had different difficulties every year in the past few years, but they have performed brilliantly every year.
For example, just relegated in 22, a large number of core players ran away, and then found an unknown rookie coach like Li Zhengxiao, and he was actually promoted to the first place.
In the first year of promotion in 23 years, many main players were poached, and they actually rushed to the third place in the league and won the first AFC Champions League qualification in team history.
Although the league was not good last year, it was actually not bad to rush to the second place in the east in the AFC Champions League group stage.
Although the situation is difficult now, who dares to underestimate them too much?
As far as Lee Jung-hyo is a special coach,He's very good at leading civilian teams, because in the tactical system he is in, everyone is a sapper, and they have to play with their lives, relying on high strength.
Therefore, many players are not very happy to fight so tired after becoming famous, and many K-League giants do not dare to hire this kind of coach.
Now that Gwangju is changing blood, on the surface, its strength has declined.But these new blood are often more obedientThe actual effect is not necessarily too bad.
And the biggest problem on Tarzan's side is that after losing Fellaini and Moises,The midfield was too bad.
Last season, Taishan averaged only 313 successful passes per game, ranking 9th in the Chinese Super League, and the pass success rate was even less than 80%, and the possession rate is only just over half, not to mention the creativity of the midfield, when encountering fierce pressing, you can't even hold the ball.
So when Tarzan encounters teams that are good at pressing, it is always very difficult to play.
This AFC Champions League Eastern High Position to grab the top five teams,Taishan has played a total of 6 games with the top 4, and the overall record is 1 draw and 5 losses, which is very poor, including three consecutive defeats against SIPG.
Then, facing Gwangju, which is in fifth place, I am afraid it will not be easy to play.
Anyway, Taishan's Henan team, which played Li Zhengxiao's master Nanji in the league twice last season, was 1 draw and 1 loss, and did not take advantage.
Although Taishan has strengthened the Brazilian midfielder Madruga in the winter window,But he hasn't played in a competitive game since July last yearI'm afraid the form is not much better, it takes a little recovery time, and it is difficult to quickly make up for the problems in the midfield.
So, although Gwangju suffered heavy losses in the winter window, is Taishan really that good to play this ball?
Can Gwangju satisfy the fans, and what do you think? The little wine will expect them to be at least undefeated!
Well, for today's other competitions, Xiaojiu will still send you text analysis in the evening. If there is anything unclear, you can ask me, "Watch the ball and see clearly", we will see you soon!
