Beijing Guoan fans have finally received some long-awaited good news! During the winter training period, the team's lineup has been strengthened with the return of some key players, which has greatly boosted morale.
Key players such as Zhang Yuning, Lin Liangming, and Li Lei have returned to the team one after another, and foreign players have also arrived in succession. Serginho, the newly naturalized player, is particularly anticipated.
Especially after the arrival of Setien, who once coached Barcelona, the team's tactical style has gradually changed, seemingly injecting new vitality into Guoan.
During the winter training, what fans are most concerned about is undoubtedly the condition of these players and the integration of the team.
Looking back at Guoan's winter training, the lineup has evolved from being stretched thin at the beginning to gradually taking shape, bringing a glimmer of hope.
Many fans feel that the confusion at the beginning of the season seems to have dissipated. The return of key players like Zhang Yuning and Li Lei has significantly enhanced the team's overall strength.
"This is the Guoan I've been looking forward to!" Some fans commented, expressing growing confidence in the team's lineup.
Especially seeing the tacit cooperation between Serginho and Zhang Yuning, it makes people look forward to their better performance in the new season.
This season, Guoan not only has stable midfield coordination but also more creativity and attacking threats in the offensive end, and the overall cohesion of the entire team has been enhanced.
Although the lineup is gradually complete, an important issue that has not been completely resolved during the winter training is the problem of the defensive line.
Especially with the unresolved contract situation of Engadu, the stability of the defense is indeed a concern.
The team is actively seeking reinforcement, and players of national team level such as Wu Shaocong and Wei Zhen have become potential targets for reinforcement.
If these two can join successfully, Guoan's defensive line will be greatly enhanced, not only making up for the possible departure of Engadu but also providing better protection for the team in multi-front battles.
Some netizens said, "If Guoan can stabilize its defense, it really has a chance to rise again in the new season." Indeed, defensive issues were once Guoan's weakness, and whether they can be reinforced in time will directly affect the team's ability to perform in the Chinese Super League, FA Cup, and AFC Champions League.
Although Guoan's winter training has progressed smoothly overall, the challenges for the upcoming season are still significant.
For substitute players outside the main lineup, fans also have high expectations. The performance of young players like Yang Liyu and Fang Hao during the winter training will determine whether the team can cope with various challenges in multi-front battles.
Especially in a season under great pressure, the depth of the bench will be crucial. Whether players can step up in critical moments is also one of the keys to the team's success.
"These young players have the ability, but whether they can hold their own on the field remains to be seen," some fans also expressed their opinions.
The state of substitute players directly affects Guoan's performance in multi-front battles. How to rotate them reasonably and adjust their state will be a challenge for the coaching staff.
Guoan's lineup is gradually becoming fuller, and the tactical system is also taking shape. Especially with the arrival of Setien, the team's passing and controlling style has regained its former glory.
Setien demands that the players improve their passing accuracy and teamwork, leading Guoan back to the classic passing and controlling play.
This style of play requires high physical fitness and tactical understanding from the players, and whether the team can adapt smoothly is a significant challenge.
It is believed that as the winter training progresses, the players will gradually become familiar with this tactical system, and we will then see a more combative Guoan.
Some fans also said, "The passing and controlling style looks cool, but whether the results can keep up is the most important." This question is indeed worth considering, after all, football matches are real, and ultimately rely on performance on the field.
Although Guoan faced many challenges during the winter training, the gradual integration of the lineup, the return of the passing and controlling style, and the performance of new recruits have made people look forward to the new season with great anticipation.
If the defensive line can be successfully reinforced, the team's overall strength will be greatly improved, and it is entirely possible to return to the peak in the upcoming season.
"I hope Guoan can, like in the past, show us the style of champions with tough defense and wonderful passing and controlling play," some netizens commented.
Indeed, Guoan's future is full of endless possibilities, and whether it can return to the peak in the new season is indeed the focus of attention for all our fans.
