The announcement of the national football team's winter training list has been like dropping a bombshell, causing an uproar in the entire football circle. Fans are excitedly discussing it, and the media is full of speculation and analysis. Especially Ivan's selection decision has really surprised everyone - Yang Liyu, the player who has not been called up to the national team for three years, has now returned to the list, and even brought two completely unfamiliar names: Maiwulang and Wumiti Jiang. Such a move, is it Ivan's wise decision, or a risky gamble filled with adventure? Let's analyze it together. First, let's talk about Yang Liyu. This name may be a bit "blurry" for many fans. If you recall, you might remember his brief appearance under Li Xiaopeng. At that time, he was once included in the national team's roster based on his performance at the club, and everyone expected him to shine in the national team. However, things took an unexpected turn. It was like riding an unexpected roller coaster - as soon as he stepped onto the field, he was quickly put on ice. In the following three years, Yang Liyu was like a forgotten corner, never receiving another call-up. Yes, for three years, Yang Liyu had no chance to play for the country, and many fans sighed for him. Whether his competitive state could return to its peak became a question for everyone. Now, Ivan suddenly called him back, giving Yang Liyu another chance to prove himself. For him, this is undoubtedly a major turning point in…

Hello everyone, I am Gui Zai, a blogger who always pays attention to the development of Chinese football. Today, I want to talk to you about the hot topic of the national team recently - the launch of the 2025 winter training led by veteran coach Ivankovic, and whether the naturalized player Delgado will become the new force of the national team, which is highly concerned by fans. Under the leadership of Ivankovic, the men's national football team has already opened the curtain of the 2025 winter training. This training session, Ivankovic carefully selected 32 national players to form a luxurious training lineup. It is worth mentioning that although 32 people were recruited, only 31 people participated in this training. The absent player is Fernandinho, who chose to give up joining the national team's training plan because his contract with Shenhua expired without renewal. For Fernandinho's absence, Ivankovic showed great understanding and respect, and did not force him to participate. Such an attitude undoubtedly highlights the wisdom and tolerance of Ivankovic as an old coach. However, Fernandinho's absence also sparked heated discussions among fans. Everyone speculated whether the national team would take this opportunity to add new naturalized players. After all, in today's international football arena, naturalized players have become an important way to enhance the strength of the team. Among the many potential naturalized candidates, Delgado's name stands out. Delgado is indeed a promising option. He has played for European giants such as Inter Milan and Benfica, accumulating rich game experience. Although his development at Inter Milan did not…

Now, in order to prepare for the third stage of the World Preliminary Asian Zone 18-strong competition, the men's national football team has started its "first training" in Haikou in 2025. According to the previously announced list, a total of 32 players were selected, and among the naturalized players, only Fei Nanduo and Hou Yongyong were called up, but Fei Nanduo refused to participate in this training due to personal reasons. Speaking of this, it reminds people of October 2021 when Fei Nanduo also refused Li Tie's call-up for the same reason. At that time, he had been recuperating from his injuries in his "hometown" Brazil for more than half a year. Later, some media explained that it was mainly because Li Tie trained three times a day, which caused Fei Nanduo's old injuries to recur, so he did not want to return to the national team. It happened that Li Tie was under investigation at that time, and Fei Nanduo really became a "victim." Looking at this matter now, it seems like the old plot is being replayed again. Everyone knows that after the loan period of Shanghai Shenhua expired, the contract with Shandong Taishan also expired. Neither of these two teams showed any intention of keeping Fei Nanduo. On December 4th, someone posted photos of Fei Nanduo moving online. What is noteworthy is that this moving company has been doing international transportation business, which further proves his plan to leave China. Regarding Fei Nanduo's absence, Ivan Kovic said it was due to personal reasons. Then he changed the…

Beijing Guoan's New Developments: Serginho Arrives, Seven Players Shine in the National Team, Transfer Drama in Full Swing? Hey there, fellow Beijing fans! Today, we're going to talk about our very own team - Beijing Guoan! Look at this excitement, it's like a pot boiling over, let's sort through this matter together. Did you know? The legendary Serginho has arrived in our Beijing territory with real gold and silver! He went straight to the Beijing Youth Daily after getting off the plane, blurting out "Number 10 jersey is my favorite." Hey, that shout almost overshadowed our captain Zhang Xizhe. But who is our Xizhe brother? He's seen big scenes and traveled through the world, and Serginho also knows how to be tactful, saying "Zhang Xizhe, awesome! I hope to cooperate well with him," showing great humility. Well, if these two can really spark on the field, our Guoan midfield will be as beautiful as a painting! After talking about the new signings, let's discuss the national team. As soon as the national team training roster was announced, oh boy, Guoan shone brightly, with seven major players listed: Li Lei, Wang Ziming, Zhang Yuning, Cao Yongjing, Lin Liangming, Yang Liyu, Han Jiaqi. This lineup is almost half of the national team! Look, except for Han Jiaqi and Li Lei who are stable in defense, the rest are sharp knives on the offensive line. Coach Ivan is turning the national team's frontcourt into Guoan's backyard? We have to give credit for this move! But then again, once these seven go to the…

Fernandinho has not participated in the new round of national team training, causing an uproar among fans. In order to prepare for the top 18 matches in March, national team coach Ivan Kozlovic decided to launch a new round of training after comprehensive opinions and discussions with the Football Association. This is to ensure that new tactics and systems can be instilled in the players early. At the same time, it is also to observe more newcomers and young players, providing more choices for subsequent lineup arrangements. It is worth noting that Ivan Kozlovic held a special welcome ceremony for the naturalized player Hou Yongyong, who was selected for the national team for the first time, along with several newly selected newcomers. However, in the face of Fernandinho's absence, the coaching staff seemed unwilling to give too many interviews. However, after the team training ended, Ivan still gave an answer, frankly admitting that Fernandinho was absent due to physical reasons and had already informed the coaching staff. However, such an explanation is clearly difficult to silence public opinion. Moreover, just recently, Fernandinho posted a new dynamic on his personal social media, showing that he is currently engaged in running training. It seems that Fernandinho's body does not have too many physical problems; it is simply a matter of personal will, unwilling to participate in the training. This move has also been fiercely criticized by fans, with comments like "cloud training" flooding the comment section. However, Fernandinho's habit of being undisciplined and uncontrollable is not the first time. When he was…

Vietnam football has recently welcomed a long-awaited victory, with the championship of the ASEAN Cup breaking the gloom that has plagued the team for two years. This match not only brought long-awaited cheers to Vietnamese fans but also made everyone rethink what "playing style" really means. It must be said that Vietnamese football has been "lost" in recent years. In 2019, the Vietnamese team reached the quarter-finals of the Asian Cup, once giving people hope for the team's future, but it was followed by a sharp decline in the team's form. The FIFA ranking once fell out of the top 100, and the performance was simply unbearable. Worse still, in the matches, the team never had a clear tactical framework, the organization of the defensive line was chaotic, and the offensive end lacked creativity, as if they had lost their way. The root of all this lies in the fact that Vietnamese football has always pursued a "European-style" tactical concept, especially after hiring Philippe Troussier as head coach, the fans placed too much expectation. To put it bluntly, everyone hoped that the Vietnamese team could play like Manchester City, with precise ball control tactics, starting the attack from the backline. However, the reality is that the Vietnamese team's lineup and resources are simply unable to support such high demands. Troussier's arrival did not bring about the anticipated changes; instead, it made the team even more confused in terms of technology and tactics. The players were not adapted to this new "style of play," and the team's resilience gradually diminished. Even…

Once upon a time, we sat in front of our televisions, fervently wishing for Chinese football to break out of Asia and onto the world stage. Those moments of fiery passion and those times of regretful tears are deeply etched in the hearts of every Chinese football fan. Now, a report from South Korean media has reignited the flames in our hearts: With the addition of Hou Yongyong, Serginho, Little Oscar, and Wu Shaocong, these four rising stars, the Chinese team is expected to secure second place in Group C and advance to the World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico! This is not just a piece of sports news; it's a symbol of national sentiment. We yearn so much to see the Five-starred Red Flag flying high on the international pitch and hear the stirring melody of "The March of the Volunteers." These four names seem like rays of dawn, illuminating the future path of Chinese football. However, behind the light lies shadow. Our league is still trapped in various issues. We must not remain stagnant or open up indiscriminately, allowing neutral names, submitting salaries to the China Professional Football League for management throughout the year, and disbursing bonuses at will... These seemingly complex items all point to a central question: How can our football league become vibrant? Consider the European giants; their success is no accident. It's underpinned by scientific management, a reasonable salary system, and a passionate fan culture. What about us? Players born after 2000 are already in their mid-twenties but are still called…

In order to prepare for the remaining matches of the top 18 qualifiers, Ivan led the national football team to start training in Haikou. It is expected that the next top 18 qualifiers will be selected from these training players. The first opponent of the national team this year is Saudi Arabia, and the national team will play away. There are a total of 32 players on the list this time, and there will definitely be players who miss the top 18 qualifiers. From 32 to 23, the prediction of the national team's lineup against Saudi Arabia, with potential omissions from Port, Guoan, and Luneng. Firstly, in the goalkeeper position of the national team, Wang Dalei and Yan Junling's positions are relatively stable. Among the choices of Han Jiaqi and Jian Tao, Ivan may prefer Han Jiaqi. Last season in the Chinese Super League, Han Jiaqi performed more brilliantly, and he was full of passion in the game, which could mobilize the team's enthusiasm and fighting spirit, more like a defensive leader. Among the defenders, with the addition of overseas central defender Wu Shaocong, the national team has more options at the center-back position. After traveling to Europe, Wu Shaocong can help him squeeze out other players in the same position. Jiang Guangtai missed this time due to injury, but if there were no injuries, he would almost certainly be selected. Adding two players from Shenhua, the national team's center-back position needs to "slim down". Hai Gang's central defender Wei Zhen often makes mistakes, Wumiti Jiang from the three towns…

The national team announced the training roster just one day ago, and someone has already announced their withdrawal from the national team. This is not the first time such an incident has occurred since Ivan took office; Ivan was also very angry upon learning about it and directly declared that he would never call up players who do not want to play for China! "He won't return to the national team because of some personal matters." Ivan confirmed during an interview that naturalized forward Fernandinho will be absent from the latest national team roster. Some journalists also revealed that Fernandinho himself does not want to return to China to play football unless the Chinese Football Association can help him find a club to play for. Obviously, in the face of such absurd demands, the Football Association will not agree. This time, Fernandinho's behavior is also unbecoming; he received so much money for his naturalization back then, yet now he doesn't even pretend anymore. Among so many naturalized players, others without blood ties are more or less willing to express some stance, whether it's Elkeson, Luo Guofu, or Alan. Now, Fernandinho is no longer pretending. This is not the first time such an incident has happened. When Ivan first joined the team, he wanted to call up veteran Wu Xi for the first training roster, but was rejected by the player himself, who stated: "I no longer have the ability to continue serving the national team." The second instance was Zhang Linpeng, who directly announced his withdrawal from the national team…
