Shenhua's preparation for the new season is challenging
Shenhua's journey for the new season is already underfoot, the manager is already sitting firmly in the lineup, and the daily training is on schedule. However, the road ahead is full of unknown hardships and tests, Shenhua will meet the new challenge in what posture, is still an unknown mystery. Although daily training is the basis of preparation, but in adversity, to ensure that the need for training is relatively reduced, Shenhua urgent club, coaches and players to deal with more practical and complex issues: how to stabilize the military mind? How to adjust personnel according to the actual situation? How will the new season's formation, playing style and goals be determined?
In the face of Shenhua's current situation, Wu Jingui confessed, "At present, the club needs to save money in all aspects, the reduction of investment will inevitably lead to personnel downsizing. My focus after my return is to do a good job with the team and players in a stable manner." Therefore, he needs to take on more responsibility after taking office. Communication has been a key focus for the club's senior management and coaching staff over the past week. The club and the coaching staff, the club and the players, and the coaching staff and the players are all raising issues and seeking solutions through face-to-face communication.
"We may have more direct face-to-face communication opportunities with the players at this stage, and will do more to explain the situation to the players and do a good job of their thinking. As we all know, every club will face many difficulties, the Chinese coaches will pragmatically and sincerely explain the difficulties to everyone, so that the players can bear and face this reality, hoping that they can gradually untie this knot, fully committed to training and games, and together to tide over the difficulties." Through the ideological work to eliminate the doubts in the minds of the players, so that they are at Shenhua at this stage of training at ease, this is also the head coach Wu Jingui and the club's senior management to reach an agreement, become an indispensable part of the current preparation process.
Among the issues that need to be exchanged, it will certainly touch on the salary, contract and so on. The reality is that the new season Shenhua will implement the "old and new", at the same time, the team said that no foreign aid to return to the team at this stage, the new season is likely to play with a full Chinese class. "We need to let the players learn to cope with the situation without foreign aid." Wu Jingui pointed out that "we will be clear with the players to play this year's technical and tactical, from the theory and practice will be explained to the players on the field this year, our field formation play, the responsibility of each player, to be proposed to the players from the details of the difference between them and the high-level national team players playing football, but also to make changes in the concept of playing football, cognition, habits. "
From now on, Shenhua will be ready to reserve all the places in the new season's roster for domestic players, but with the return of a number of loaned players, there are still a number of domestic players who will definitely not be part of the new season's roster plan. As for the way in which the loaned out players, starters, veterans with contracts, and marginal players should stay or leave, it all needs to be confirmed according to the player's own ability, position, and the head coach's technical and tactical needs. In the process of reducing the number of players, Shenhua will avoid 'one size fits all', respect the players, respect the contract, to ensure that the 'spirit of contract' under the premise of negotiation with the players.
Another problem is that with Moreno's return to the South American league, from the current situation of the Chinese Super League to be determined and the epidemic situation, it is doubtful that he can return to the Chinese Super League summer window, so whether it is the "old and new" or "all Chinese class" strategy, Shenhua needs to Establish a new core. Just the axis of Wu Xi, Zhu Chenjie, as well as a number of young players who can be based in the Chinese Super League are absent from the team training due to the call-up of the national team, the earliest to return in mid-April. If according to the late April start of the node to calculate, Shenhua to establish a new core of the complete program, it is likely to be in the league after the start of the game through the "game instead of practice" method of implementation.
Although including the new season of the Chinese Super League in many matters, everything is uncertain, Shenhua has been pursuing for many years, "back to the ranks of the strongest team" goal in the new season does need to let go, but at least according to the existing personnel reserves, aspiring to cultivate young people Shenhua still has the power to fight. If you lose the burden of catching up with the strongest teams, naturally you can lower your posture and thus lighten your load. This from the beginning of the Shenhua in the unprecedented challenge in front of what kind of answer sheet will be delivered, always have to go forward to know.
