The gap with naturalized players is reflected in several ways:

1. Psychological challenges

On the stage of international competitions.

Players often show nervousness, anxiety and restlessness, especially when their team is behind, and are often unable to turn the situation around. Players may be in a daze once the opponents have created restrictions and the situation is difficult to open up.

The players' mental fitness needs to be strengthened urgently and there is a lack of resistance to pressure.

Coaches often say after matches that they usually train well, but when it comes to official matches, their performance is greatly reduced. However, naturalized players rarely encounter such problems.

2. Ball sense and ball sense

Soccer is a sport that requires both intelligence and emotional intelligence. However.

Most players see playing soccer as a profession and lack innovation and creativity. They are overly dependent on coaching when it comes to stopping, passing, shooting, positioning and defending.

Despite the fact that players such as Junior Zhang Yuning and Wu Lei have a higher sense of touch and ball movement, Brazilian players and players with experience of traveling to Europe are better in this area.

3. Kicking habits

As mentioned earlier, domestic players tend to stop and observe when receiving the ball before passing or adjusting their shot, and this programmed kicking habit is ingrained in all of their ball handling actions.

However, sometimes a direct pass and shoot works better instead, but they think it's the wrong thing to do.

The play of Lokomotiv and Ackerson on the national team is a reflection of that kicking habit.

4. Basic skills

In the 12-team Asian qualifiers for the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar.

In the face of Japan, Australia, Saudi Arabia and other teams, exposed the biggest problem is poor control of the ball, the ball at the feet do not know how to deal with, often by the opponents break the ball.

This indicates a major problem with the fundamentals of the team's players.

5. Willpower

Domestic players generally lack willpower, sometimes lose too many games, and even lose the confidence and determination to win. This lack of willpower is directly reflected on the field, manifesting itself in the form of not daring to make a move, not daring to hold the ball, not daring to go forward, and even not concentrating when defending.

6. Successful experiences

Naturalized players such as Alan was the golden boot of UEFA Cup, Jiang Guangtai has a solid position in Evergrande, Luo Guofu has played well in Luneng and Evergrande, and Eckerson has performed well in Shanghai SIPG and Guangzhou Evergrande. These successes have determined their heights, which not all domestic players can have.
