Recently, the changes in the national football team have been quite dazzling!
Ivan, the new coach, has made bold reforms as soon as he took office, directly igniting three fires and expelling five major national team players.
This move has caused a lot of discussion among fans, with some applauding and others worried. However, I think this might really be a new opportunity for the national football team.
Let's talk about these five expelled national team players first. Wu Xi, Zhang Linpeng, Li Ke, Wu Lei, and Yan Junling are all familiar faces in the national team, who were once the pillars of the team. However, in recent years, their performance has been declining year by year on the field.
Take Wu Xi as an example. This veteran used to be the one who could control the midfield, but in recent games, his running speed has obviously slowed down, and there have been frequent passing errors.
As for Zhang Linpeng, it goes without saying that he always misses people in defense and has even had the embarrassing situation of scoring an own goal.
Wu Lei, although our top scorer, has also become less visible on the court in the past two years.
Ivan's move is really ruthless, directly clearing out these veterans.
However, if you think about it carefully, this might be a good opportunity for the national team to start anew.
Our national team has been criticized for years for its poor transition between old and new players, with veterans unwilling to leave their positions and young players lacking opportunities.
Now, Ivan has injected a fresh blood into the national team at once.
Look at these newly selected young players, they are all energetic.
Like Jiang Guangtai and Wu Shaocong, these young defenders may lack experience, but they are fast and responsive, and are very lively on the court.
Midfielders like He Yupeng and Liu Yang are young, but their footwork is quite good, and their passing is precise.
Forwards like Xie Pengfei and Zhang Yuning, although not as famous as Wu Lei, are full of energy and may burst out with amazing strength one day.
Honestly, seeing these young people running on the court makes my heart a little excited. Although they still seem a bit immature now, as long as they are given time and opportunities, they might grow into the new main force of the national team. Isn't this what we've been looking forward to, the "youth storm"?
Of course, Ivan's decision is not without risks. After all, although these veterans' performance has declined, they are still very experienced. Especially in some key matches, their on-site performance and psychological quality may be more stable than young players. Clearing them all out at once is indeed risky.
But let's face it, our national team's performance over the years has been stagnant. Without making some bold changes, how can there be any breakthroughs? Sometimes, you have to dare to take risks to have the chance to succeed.
Moreover, this World Cup qualifier 18-strong match is crucial for our World Cup campaign. Ivan did this just to inject new vitality into the team and add some variables. Maybe these young people will catch the opponents off guard with their fierce charges on the court.
However, relying solely on these young people is not enough. Ivan also needs to figure out how to integrate these new and old players well. After all, football is a team sport, and individual ability alone is not enough; there must be tacit cooperation. This requires Ivan to work harder on tactics.
Speaking of tactics, I think Ivan can try high-pressure pressing and quick counter-attacks. Our young players have good physical fitness and speed, so we should make good use of this advantage. Coupled with the experience and stability of some veterans, we might really be able to play a beautiful combination.
Of course, these are just some of my thoughts. How exactly to play still depends on Ivan's arrangement. However, I believe that as long as these young people are given enough trust and opportunities, they will surely show their abilities on the court.
We fans shouldn't rush either, give this brand-new national team some time. After all, Rome wasn't built in a day, and the rebuilding of the national team cannot be accomplished overnight. We need to be patient, believe in these young people, and also believe in Ivan's vision and ability.
In the end, winning or losing in football matches is common, the key is to see hope and progress. This bold move by Ivan might just be the new hope for the national team. Let's look forward together, hoping that this newly revitalized national team will perform well in the 18-strong match and lay the foundation for the World Cup campaign.
Finally, I still want to say that no matter how the national team performs, we fans should continue to support them. Because they represent not only 11 individuals but the hope of Chinese football as a whole. Let's cheer for them together and for Chinese football!
