The latest roster for the national soccer team needs to be looked at this way, with the school age players that are basically on the Asian Games. The national youth team may have good players, but some of them were injured in training, so the final roster will surprise some people. But it's also clear that Jankovic is stubborn and doesn't pay much attention to the form of some players. But to be honest, Shenhua might need to use U17 players if the Asian Games don't postpone some games.
There's not much to say about goalies. Everyone's choices are the same. Backline is definitely debatable, but there's no way to make that choice.
Zhu Chenjie is at the Asian Games, so he's not on the national team roster. Wei Zhen will also be selected for the national team. Although he is a club substitute, it is certainly a good thing that Wei Zhen was selected to use some of the young defenders. The other options for defenders are not a big problem. For the Chinese men's soccer team, in fact, the core of defenders right now are Zhang Linpeng and Jiang Guangtai. As long as they are there, the other players are the same.
To be honest, the opponents in the warm-up matches aren't that strong per se, and you can try to practice some players. From what I've seen so far, Jankovic is using players he knows well.
It's rare to get the midfield selection right

Xu Xin's inclusion seems questionable to some? After all, the player is a club substitute and doesn't get many starts. However, some fans said that even if Xu Xin doesn't play for a minute, he is still better than many domestic players, except Wu Xi. Zhang Jiaqi's inclusion is normal. He is probably the best midfielder in China at this age.
Wang Qiuming is doing well in Tianjin, and there aren't too many surprises that some of the midfielders were picked this time around. But if there are no surprises, the starting midfielders might be Xu Xin and Wang Shangyuan?
Aside from the fact that there are no real centers, the forward options are solid, and the real centers are on the mend

Lin Liangming was chosen as a surprise to many, but because of his friendliness on the national team, he will probably play at his normal level. The real center seems to be Exxon, there is no real center. In fact, there will be some changes to the roster after the Asian Games. Both Barton and Tan Long could come to the national team at the end of the Asian Games, and Zhang Yuning could return to health.
The overall assessment of the national soccer roster is that Yankovic doesn't need to live with the idea. As long as this lineup is performing well, it is unlikely that new people will be added. Now the national soccer team is also starting to use 1993 players as the core, well, not 35 year olds as the core, but at least starting to use 30 year olds as the core.
Two warm-up matches need to be won, and in any case, with the current squad, there are no expectations for the World Qualifiers, and the team's problem now is that it has no real core, and its core abilities are not up to the task. It is still difficult to advance to the first stage of the World Qualifiers.
