Examining the words of gratitude of Wu Lei to Xu Genbao, in fact, reveals a layer of deep meaning. Wu Lei and Yan Jun Ling and other "Chongming five tigers" continued brilliant, certainly praiseworthy, but over-emphasis on the "light of the year" ten years of emotion, neither substantive value, but also lack of long-term perspective. "Chongming five tigers" ten years in the core, on the one hand, highlights the Chongming Island, a player's extraordinary strength, on the other hand, also reflects the coaching team in the enjoyment of Xu Genbao to create the talent dividend.
On the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the club's super-expansion, Shanghai Seaport Football Club, its players and fans, why not revisit the original intention: to move forward steadily, be independent and self-reliant, go through the trials and tribulations, improve their skills, and devote themselves to cultivating soccer talents for Shanghai and even for the country. Xu Genbao's entrepreneurial spirit of nurturing disciples for ten years will always be a valuable spiritual wealth for the team and the club.
Undeniably, Wu Lei, Yan Junling and other "Chongming five tigers" still has a superb level of competition, but from the long-term development of the team, the old and the new, especially the training of local newcomers, should also be emphasized. Chongming a period of disciples this year 31 to 33 years old, is in the peak period of professional players, experienced, physical fitness. However, except for Yan Junling, the physical ability and confrontation ability of other players have declined, but their experience and awareness are still excellent, and they can tutor the young players on the field, which is the best model for scientific team building.
In this regard, the Shenhua team coached by Wu Jingui is exemplary.In 2018, Shenhua and Harbour had competed for the 1999-2000 age group echelon of the Genbao base, and eventually this group of young players joined Shenhua. Four years later, from the perspective of talent cultivation, this is a wise choice: Shenhua's lineup is aging, and the best of this group of newcomers have been given more opportunities for cultivation. Zhu Chenjie has grown into a member of the national team, Jiang Shenglong and Liu Ruowan vanadium have been given many chances to make their debuts and have outstanding performances; Wang Haijian has also become the core of the midfield by virtue of his outstanding performances, squeezing veterans such as Qin Sheng and Sun Shilin to the bench.
In contrast, the Shanghai Harbor team has Xu Genbao left behind the "Chongming Island Phase I" main lineup, "Chongming five tigers" ten years to sit at the core, the strength is extraordinary. However, the coaching team should not rely too much on Xu Genbao's legacy, but should pay attention to the promotion of newcomers, do a good job of the old and the new, for the successor to lay a solid foundation. Compared to Shenhua's Wu Jingui's near-perfect "old and new match", Harbor team coach Leko's ability is limited and bound by results, making it difficult to consider long-term development.
At this point, club managers must have the ability of long-term planning and top-level design. Fortunately, Shanghai Harbor Club is not without foresight. The 2006 age group team of Genbao Base is the team owned by Shanghai Harbor Club, which is managed and trained by Genbao Base through purchasing services to improve the level. Compared to the varying youth training levels of the Harbour Club's ladder teams, the Genbao Base's product is undoubtedly a fine product.
In my opinion, Shanghai Dongya super ten years, Chongming five tigers long-term perseverance, its greatest significance is not just the nostalgia of the first phase of Chongming Island, but the delivery of the five fine players to cultivate the "source of living water": Whether it is the establishment of Genbao base, the whole system to participate in the Second Division League and the National Games, and ultimately the success of the Super League, Xu Genbao and the base of the original intention It is not the pursuit of short-term results, but the cultivation of talent - for Shanghai soccer, Chinese soccer reserves of local talent.
Experiencing the 10th anniversary of the Super League, Shanghai Harbour Club should not only focus on the immediate acreage, but should be based on the city of Shanghai and have a broader vision. Just as when Wu Lei's La Liga to stay in the world and give up the Chinese Super League title, Shanghai Seaport team in the pursuit of professional league results at the same time, but also should inherit Xu Genbao's entrepreneurial spirit: for Shanghai, China's soccer training talents - even if China's national team has lost many battles, but if no one is willing to do the ladder, as a green leaf, China's soccer will only be even more difficult.
