In the post-golden dollar soccer era, the foreign aid lineup in the Chinese Super League has been transformed, with Shandong Taishan announcing the departure of Fellaini at the end of the season, marking the end of an era. Beijing Guoan are now worried about foreign aid. After the departure of players such as Augusto and Bieira, Guoan has encountered great difficulties in choosing foreign aid. Not only is it difficult to find matching players in terms of level, but it's also very difficult to find the real core of foreign aid. This directly led to Beijing Guoan's unsatisfactory performance at the beginning of the season. Coupled with Stanley Monzo's incompetent performance, Guoan performed poorly in the first few rounds of matches.
In the second transfer window, Beijing Guoan remedied the situation, foreigner Abreu joined and scored six goals, one man took Guoan into the top four, although the head coach Suarez lost his character, but the coaching performance deserves to be praised, if it is not because of the foreigners are so poor, Guoan can at least enter the top three. Two players, De Souza and Ademi, became the other two losers for Li Ming. They have rich experience in European games. As veterans, they are not adapted to Beijing Guoan's tactical system.
De Souza is a defensive back-row player who has performed well overall, with injury concerns coming to light. De Souza lost to Tarzan in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. De Souza was injured in the stands. He had a much more serious injury that was essentially compensated for during the season. Suarez was also ready. Two wide midfielders were dropped outright in the previous games. The Chinese Super League has a single line of play with little fixture pressure and no foreigners. With Zhang Xuzhe as the core, but the effect is better, more like Beijing Guoan's attacking soccer.
Another foreign aid Ademi is even more embarrassing to use, the AFC Cup substitutes for 5 minutes, strained off the field, completely ruined his career in Guoan. Ademi will be transferred early and join the Croatian Dinamo team. Guoan can't take it anymore. Ademi himself has no face to play soccer. It was easy for both sides to get together and break up. Ademi gave up part of his salary, which was unfortunate for Guoan. There was no need to pay for the termination of the contract. After all, Guiao suffered a lot of losses. De Souza and Ademi are water, and there were two foreigners last season.
This year has been awkward for the dual midfielders out wide, with Adebenelo and Dabbro also being dual wide forwards last season. Unfortunately for Guiao, they need to enforce the contracts of both foreigners. Even if they deregister, they will have to find a next home for them and they will have to pay some salaries. Daburo, Adebenelo, De Souza and Ademi got 4 foreigners in both seasons. Leeming needs to make up for that. He can plan ahead, build a new roster for next season, and focus on foreign aid options.
Guoan has a complete lineup of domestic players, in which middle-generation players such as Fang Hao, Zhang Yuan and Yang Liyu are the core of the team's team building, and their attraction has been fully considered. In addition, Nai Bijiang, Jiang Wenhao and other local youth training young players have also joined the team, adding fresh blood to Guoan. The difference lies in the foreigners, as Beijing Guoan still has three more foreigners, Kang Xiangyu, Ngadeu and Abreu, in the remaining six rounds of the Chinese Super League. Beijing Guoan has amassed 41 points, with only 3 points separating them from Shandong Taishan. Shenhua lost eight players in September, and Shandong Taishan will have to make some trade-offs as they have to participate in three fronts at the same time with a tight schedule. Beijing Guoan, on the other hand, can go all out to compete for the top three spots and qualify for the AFC Champions League.
