Behind the new idea of the national football team's list is the injury battle, where Ivan of Thailand will bet on naturalized players

On the 22nd Beijing time, the Chinese Football Association announced the new national football training list. Ivankovic's head coach selected a total of 29 players. Compared with the big list in March, this list has changed a lot due to subjective and objective factors such as injury, illness and league status. In the case of Zhang Yuling and Wu Lei suffering injury and suspension respectively, in the life and death battle with Thailand on June 6, the attack line of the national football team may want to bet on the naturalized players of Exxon, Alan and Fernando.

   Several newcomers were selected

As many as 9 players of the national football team are recruited by Ivan's coaching team for the first time. Among them, three attackers Alain, Fang Hao and Xie Weijun had experience in the national team before, while Shenhua goalkeeper Bao Yaxiong, defender Yang Zexiang, midfielder Xu Haoyang, Taishan team middle and back court versatile Huang Zhengyu, Shenzhen New Pengcheng team center Baihe Lamu, and Tianjin Tiger team center guard Han Pengfei were all selected for the first time.

In the last two months, Ivankovic and his team have always paid attention to the league. The player's status is an important basis for Ivan to make a choice. Take the Shenhua international player as an example. In March, five international players in the big list, Dai Weijun, were not included in the current training list because of the unstable playing time and status of the league, while Bao Yaxiong Yang Zexiang and Xu Haoyang are both players with stable performances in the league. Alan, Fang Hao, Huang Zhengyu and Han Pengfei are also players who have performed well in the recent league.

At the same time, the recent intensive competition schedule has also led to some international players being affected by injuries. Guoan came to the game with Yatai. Zhang Yuling, the main striker of the national football team, and two rotation players Li Lei and Lin Liangming were injured at the same time, which forced Ivan to identify replacement players. From the position, Xie Weijun, Yang Zexiang and Fang Hao just replaced the three injured national players of Guoan.

   Gun hunting is a difficult problem

Since Wu Lei won the second yellow card in the last 36 match between Singapore and Wu Lei in March, the match against Thailand on June 6 had to be suspended. Finding a player to replace Wu Lei was Ivan's number one problem in the last two months. The sudden injury of bridgehead Zhang Yuling made Ivan need to reorganize the entire front line. For Croatian elderly people, The task before him is rather difficult.

Originally, in his 4-3-1 – 2 system, Zhang Yuling, as the center, played the role of bridgehead, and needed to fight with the opposing central defender, while Wu Lei swam behind him, using speed and ability to insert back to find opportunities. The first goal against Singapore at home, Zhang Yuling took the ball with his back and went straight through, while Wu Lei inserted a single shot to break the goal, This is the best presentation of Ivan's technical and tactical ideas.

Not surprisingly, Wu Lei's position will be replaced by the naturalized player Alan. After returning to the Chinese Super League and joining the Qingdao West Coast this season, Alan has a good output on the offensive side. With two goals against the harbor in the last round, the number of goals has reached 4.

However, according to the current training list, there is only one candidate for Bridgehead, and Xie Weijun's ability is not enough to start in the life and death battle. Now Ivan can only pray for the recovery of Exxon, who was affected by injuries at the beginning of the season. In the last round of Chengdu's visit to Meizhou, Exxon ushered in his first start of the season, playing for 45 minutes. Although he failed to score, he at least sent a signal that his physical condition was slowly improving.

Fernando is the biggest surprise of the national football team in March, and the right breakthrough is an indispensable means in the national football team's attack. However, Fernando suffered from muscle strain in the league earlier. Although he is close to comeback, when he can recover still needs to wait.

In the position of flank attacker, the local attacker is still in the best condition at present. This season, he has scored 6 goals, and also completed two assists. In the 4-1 victory over Meizhou Hakka in the away game, Chengdu Rongcheng was sent off one person at the beginning of the game, and Wei Shihao helped the team win 3 points for two times. Last November, when the national football team defeated Thailand 2-1 away, Wei Shihao played a heroic role, which can be called the greatest hero in winning the game. With regard to the technical style of the Thai team, Wei Shihao is quite handy.  

Based on the current situation, whether Ivan continues the 4-3-1-2 system or returns to the 4-2-3-1 system that Chinese players are most familiar with, the three naturalized players, Exxon, Alan and Fernando, may be expected to make a collective debut. At that time, the performance of the naturalized players will directly determine whether the national football team can cross Thailand and reach the top 18.
