Football is a game that evokes both love and hatred. A few days ago, I saw that the Football Association announced the new training list for the U20 national team. These young players are about to play in the Asian Cup at home, and honestly, this lineup looks quite interesting, unlike before when it was hard to get excited. This U20 national youth team gives people the first impression of being different. Shandong Taishan contributed seven players. These children grew up in a professional youth training system and climbed step by step with the team. Now some of them have already made their mark in the Chinese Super League. Zhu Pengyu and Mao Weijie from Dalian are also two interesting kids. They worked hard in the China League One last year, helping the team advance to the Super League. This practical experience is definitely a good thing for the national team. Wang Yudong's performance at Zhejiang team is also quite surprising. At a young age, he has played in the Chinese Super League and AFC Champions League. Such big-stage experiences are really important for a young player. Du Yuezheng is also doing well abroad. He can get substitute playing opportunities in top teams like Atletico Madrid, which shows that he indeed has some skills. Speaking of the U20 Asian Cup, the biggest advantage is playing at home. The players don't need to adjust to time differences or worry about acclimatization issues. However, to be honest, there is also pressure in playing at home.

This outcome indicates that simply stacking superstars is far from enough; there are many pressing issues with Real Madrid's squad depth and tactical compatibility that need to be addressed. The center forward position was originally hoped to be perfectly resolved with the arrival of Mbappe. However, Mbappe's strength lies in his breakthroughs and attacks on the left flank, which conflicts with Vinicius, who is also active on the left, making the personnel configuration in this area somewhat redundant, while the true center forward issue remains unresolved. At this time, Real Madrid keenly noticed Manchester City's poor performance this season and the pressure from the financial fair play regulations, which may result in them being unable to participate in the Champions League next season. Therefore, Haaland entered Real Madrid's transfer radar, and the addition of this super center forward is expected to completely solve the persistent problem of insufficient attacking power in the middle of Real Madrid's front line. The defensive midfielder position has also fallen into trouble. The arrival of Tchouameni was supposed to be a strong supplement to Casemiro's departure, but reality has taken a different turn. Tchouameni lacks sufficient intensity in defensive midfield and his passing ability…
