In addition, the reporter also pointed out that the current Shanghai Shenhua team simply does not have a complete tactical system. Once the main players are unable to play, the substitutes simply cannot reach the level of the original team. This season, Shenhua's victory in many matches depended on the veteran's transcendent performance or the opponent's low-level mistakes. Many of the players' performances on the pitch gave the impression of being overwhelmed.
The team has not established a real system, resulting in many young players not being able to integrate with the team. Many of the players who joined Shenhua this season had previously performed well in other teams, but gradually became mediocre after arriving at Shenhua. Examples include Zhang Wei, who transferred from Hebei, Xu Hao Yang and Liu Ruofan, who were loaned back from Wuhan Sanzhen and Chengdu Rongcheng, and Dai Weijun, the threadbare international who just joined in the summer window.
Last season, Zhang Wei was Hebei's top scorer, while Liu Ruowan vanadium had a stellar 13 goals and 4 assists in the Central League while playing for Chengdu Rongcheng. Xu Genbao is optimistic that Xu Haoyang is the best midfielder in China in the future. Not to mention Dai Weijun, who is now the centerpiece of the national team's midfield, but he has underperformed in the few games since joining Shenhua. Apparently, he also suffered from Shenhua's lack of a real system.
As a result, many of the team's promising young players could be scrapped altogether if Shenhua is once again taken by Wu Jingui.
In addition, the reporter also named and criticized the foreign side defender Yan Xinli, whose ability, in his opinion, is simply not up to the standard of a foreign defender. He is physically gifted, but the player is completely disproportionate to his skills, and has made many very low-level mistakes on the right side of the pitch he guards this season. Shenhua and Dalian conceded a goal for the first time due to being robbed by the opponent. Therefore, this reporter believes that Yan Xinli should be the first foreigner to clean up the team for Shenhua next season.
Despite his Chinese ancestry, Yann Xinli was unable to complete his naturalization this year due to complicated naturalization procedures. Therefore, he is still playing as a foreign aid in the Chinese Super League. Many fans believe that Shenhua will be able to naturalize Yann Xinli next season so that they can save a foreign aid quota. Based on the current situation, it can be predicted that Yan Xinli will probably be the first foreign aid to leave Shenhua next year.
