The debut of the team was not as good as it could have been. This round to face the strength of a better harbor team, Bilic shoulder pressure can be seen. At the press conference, Bilic introduced the team's recent preparations, in addition to regular technical and tactical training, he paid more attention to the cultivation of the players' mentality, "During the preparation period, we are slightly incomplete, I told the players that the most important thing is to maintain self-confidence, and I hope that they continue to be full of self-confidence, and to play well in the next round of games."
Talking about the lessons learned from the first loss, Bilic responded: "I am very clear about the problems exposed in the last game, mainly because the team's lack of aggressiveness, allowing the opponent to create a lot of trouble for us on the offensive end, which also led to a long period of time to control the ball but can not be converted into an effective offense. The coaching staff also anticipated that the players might have fluctuations in their form before the game, so I expect the team to play better and better from game to game and gradually improve their form. In this game, I hope the players can significantly improve their physical confrontation and aggressiveness compared to the last game."

Video footage of last season's matches, provided by the club, also featured his familiarity with Seaport's current Croatian-born coach, Leko, and goalscorer Arnautovic. "Harbour are also a strong team, their tactical approach is very different from Shenhua's and we need to be ready for that." Bilic said he and Leko, who both hail from Croatia's second-largest city, Split, and got their start with the country's second-biggest team, the Split Freedom Fighters, as well as playing for the Croatian national team in succession, are familiar with each other. While he was in the

Arnautovic was a starter for West Ham United when he was in charge of the team. Bilic said he will inform his players of what he has learned about the opposing team's playing style and characteristics, however, whether this will help the game will depend on how the players play on the field.
Players, absent from the first game of the side defender Wang Gang and newcomer Lucas Sosa has become the focus of attention. Bilic frankly, the former's injury recovery is good, basically close to the starting state; the latter individual ability is outstanding, the training effect is also very good, is a very good defensive midfielder, but because of the shorter time to the team, and the same position on the competition is very fierce, so you need to grind with the team more.
