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…

The new training roster for the Chinese men's national football team has finally been released after much anticipation. This time, head coach Ivan has called up a total of 32 national players, with Beijing Guoan becoming the largest contributor, boasting seven of their players selected. In addition to some familiar faces and regulars in the national team, there are also five newcomers included in this training session: Wu Shaocong, Yang Liyu, Hou Yongyong, Maiwulang Mijiti, and Wumiti Jiang Yusup. Among them, the inclusion of the eagerly anticipated naturalized player Hou Yongyong has excited Chinese fans the most. Overall, the roster aligns well with the wishes of Chinese fans, as it truly represents a major overhaul of the national team lineup, significantly improving the previously somewhat aging age structure. However, despite this, Ivan's selection for the national team still has three questionable choices that have sparked widespread criticism and controversy among fans. Firstly, why was Yang Liyu, who has performed averagely, called up? Secondly, why is Wei Zhen still being used? Thirdly, why was the naturalized powerhouse Alan dropped from the squad? Is he not better than Yang Liyu? In summary, these three confusing selections by Ivan have raised many questions and criticisms from fans. Let's start with the issue of Yang Liyu's call-up. Looking back at his past performance on the field, it is difficult to describe it as "outstanding." In club matches, although he occasionally shines, more often than not, he falls into mediocrity, lacking enough firepower in the offensive end to create decisive opportunities for the team. His…

At the beginning of 2025, one of the most anticipated events in Chinese football is undoubtedly the entry of various teams. Currently, Guangzhou Team, which ranked third in last season's China League One, is still not optimistic about their situation. Previously, several former Guangzhou Team players, including Wei Shihao, Yang Liyu, and Yan Dinghao, raised doubts after the Football Association issued a proposed entry list. So far, these players still have contract disputes with Guangzhou Team, simply put, Guangzhou Team currently owes them money. In fact, this part of the athletes at that time misunderstood the intention of the Football Association. The Football Association only drafted an entry list at that time, which did not mean that these teams could definitely participate in next year's Chinese professional football league. It was just to give the athletes and teams a buffer period. Objections can be raised after the announcement of this list. As expected, including Guangzhou Team, many teams were reported to have received appeals from players, who had not paid off their debts. Subsequently, Guangzhou Team even conducted live streaming sales online, hoping to raise more funds for the club to complete the entry and clear the salaries owed to these players. At the same time, Guangzhou fans are also very concerned about the current substitute qualifications in the Chinese Super League because it is still unclear how many teams in the Chinese Super League and China League One cannot complete the entry and will be forced to disband, giving up how many places. These are also very important for…

On January 3rd, Beijing time, the Chinese men's national football team announced its first training roster for the New Year. The highly anticipated Hou Yongyong has been selected, along with Yang Liyu, Wu Shaoc

The entry process is nearing completion, and finally good news has arrived: Guangzhou Team has been saved. The team has reached a settlement with the players who were owed wages, and it now appears that Guangzhou Team will not be disbanded for the time being, having narrowly escaped another crisis. This time, Guangzhou Team must thank players like Wei Shihao and Yang Liyu, who did not want to destroy the team and were willing to negotiate. Previously, after the Football Association announced the second batch of debt repayment list, former Guangzhou Team players such as Wei Shihao voiced their opinions on social media platforms. At that time, they were not as aggressive as other teams' wage-seeking players; instead, they targeted the Football Association, hoping that it could play a mediating role. It now seems that they still have feelings for the team and are willing to give Guangzhou Team a way out. Moreover, Guangzhou Team has indeed done a lot of work in the past, holding offline special sales events and negotiating with Cannavaro. At that time, Cannavaro withdrew his appeal to FIFA, and now, the players he valued most at Guangzhou Team—Wei Shihao, Yang Liyu, and Yan Dinghao—would obviously not make things too difficult for Guangzhou Team. It is most likely that Guangzhou Team was previously too busy to communicate with its meritorious players in time, leading to subsequent misunderstandings. Additionally, there have recently been rumors that Guangzhou Team is selling its main goalkeeper, Huo Shenping, with Zhejiang Team possibly becoming his new home, which would require a transfer…
