Had it not been for that accidental directive.

Had the FA not been so bent on cutting the number of Super League places from two to 1.5 last year.

The Super League has long been achieved in the 2020 season.
Had it not been for Long Cheng's blindside kick, which was awarded a penalty by the referee, Greentown might have beaten Wuhan Zall and managed to join the

Extended family.
Old Song, he's far away from Greentown
There is no need to indulge in assumptions; the past is history and cannot be revisited or changed. The only solid guarantee is to be in control of one's own destiny.
As the new season is about to start, Greentown team is preparing their troops and waiting for the success of the Super League. The road ahead is long, thorny and dangerous, and must not be taken lightly.
First, the new system, the variables increase, the super or add uncertainty
Compared to last year's tournament system, this year's tournament system is also carried out, but with the addition of multiple rounds of matches, 18 teams are divided into three divisions for a total of 34 rounds of 10+8+8+8, i.e., each team will play two matches against the other 17 teams, ranked according to the total number of points, with the top two directly charging to the Super League, and the third and fourth playing a play-off with the 15th and 16th place of the Chinese Super League, with the winners going to the Super League, and the losers being relegated to the The winners will enter the Chinese Super League and the losers will be relegated to the Chinese First Division.

This fixture is weird and varied. It means that if you want to make it to the Super League, you have to go all out in every game and make fewer mistakes and no mistakes. Once you fall out of the top two in the rankings, you can only advance through the play-offs, but it is too difficult for a Central League One team to compete with a Super League team. Even with the implementation of the foreign aid parity principle, in terms of strength, the Central League teams are also in the lower echelon. This can be seen in the two rounds of matches between Greentown and Wuhan Zhuoer last year, where Greentown played only half of the 180-minute match, or 45 minutes of good soccer.
The biggest disadvantage for Greentown was the FA's indecisiveness, which both failed to allow Greentown to be promoted to the Premier League on a recurring basis and cost Greentown the right to host the tournament.
Cheng Jin, need more progress
Originally, the Zhejiang Football Association proposed to bid for the new season of the Central League, but in the case of the possibility of Greentown to be promoted to the Super League, and ultimately gave up the right to host. As a result, the two ends fell short. This result casts a shadow over Greentown's promotion. Now there are strong home teams in all three divisions, which puts heavy pressure on Greentown, who is aiming for the Super League. It is still very difficult to overcome the home teams and break into the top two in the table.
From the 2020 season of the Central League, several teams playing at home have broken into the second stage of the super group. For example, Chengdu Xingcheng, of course, the strength of the team is also very strong, coupled with the head coach Carlos's coaching is very successful, the home field played a heavenly record, the first stage of the 10 matches, 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, the winning rate is very high. If Chengdu Xingcheng (now renamed Chengdu Rongcheng) continues to play such a home record this year, it will be very difficult for Greentown to stop the opponent's super footsteps.
Yue Xin, strong in offense and weak in defense
Last year's home teams from the other two divisions, Kunshan FC and Meizhou Hakka, also broke into the Super League group, which shows that playing at home is still an advantage.
And because of the different system this year, the ranking will be confirmed according to the total points, so this may become the biggest danger for Greentown team. Take every step and play well to have a chance of survival.
Second, Wuhan three towns strength surge, Chengdu Rongcheng close pursuit, two teams have become the super favorite
Originally ranked ahead of Greentown, the two forces, last year's first in the Central League, Changchun Yatai and relegated from the Super League, Shijiazhuang Yongchang (now Cangzhou Lions) to the Super League, according to the rankings, Greentown is the first in the Central League. It would be a mistake to blindly assume that.
Envious of Changchun Yatai's success in the Super League
Affected by the general environment and the FA policy, this year, a number of teams are difficult to continue, can only be dissolved. For example, Taizhou Yuanda, a city and county-level companies can not afford the huge investment, choose to withdraw. Some other clubs are struggling with tightened financial resources. But there are also some teams that have bucked the trend and continued to attract reinforcements, showing ambition. For example, Wuhan Three Town and Chengdu Rongcheng.
On April 2, Wuhan Sanzhen officially announced that Yin Yagi, Yang Cuo and Kaiser Adilijiang have joined the team. One of them, Yin Yagi, is said to be the center back candidate Green City boss Jordy has been eyeing, who helped Qingdao Yellow Sea win the Central League title as a starter the year before, and performed well with the Yellow Sea in the Chinese Super League last year.
Zhang Xiaobin joins Wuhan Three Towns
On April 6, Wuhan Three Town officially announced that Xu Qing, Zhao Shuhao and Zhang Xiaobin officially joined. Among them, Zhang Xiaobin's strength is relatively strong, has represented the National Olympic Team in the Asian Cup, and has entered the national football training list.
Zhang Xiaobin joins Wuhan Three Towns
April 8 de transfer update, Wuhan Sanzhen lease Liu Yue, Xu Yue, Lv Haidong, Geng Xiaofeng and Zhang Wentao. Among them, goalkeeper Geng Xiaofeng is the most prestigious.
Today there is another news that Liu Yiming, Guangzhou's international center back, has leased to join Wuhan Sanzhen. Ren Hang is also rumored to be in line to join.
After listing so many players, together with the original strength players in the team such as Deng Zhuoxiang, Wuhan Sanzhen's paper strength has risen to the first in the Central League, and it is by no means a falsehood that they have become the favorites for the Super League. If the manager is able to knead these players into shape, it will surely be a scary team.
Coupled with the fact that Wuhan is one of the tournament zones, Wuhan's three towns' ambition to reach the Super League is clear.
Wuhan Three Towns team with a lot of strength
In addition to Wuhan Sanzhen, another team, Chengdu Rongcheng, is also not to be underestimated.
Chengdu Rongcheng brought in former Tianjin Teda foreign aid Jonathan and a number of internal reinforcements, with players such as Zhang Yan, Li Zhi, Gou Junchen, Han Guangliang, Han Xuan, Liu Bin, Gan Chao, Xiang Baixu and Xing Yu joining the team, significantly improving the team's strength, in addition to the unofficial Li Jianbin, who is being prepared for the match in an orderly manner under the guidance of the Korean coach Seo Jung-won.
Rongcheng did have a vision when they dumped Gyurgych. And this abandoned Jurjić, is now in the Green City team trial. Of course, this is not to say that Jurjić is not strong, but obviously, Rongcheng foreign aid compared to Greentown, obviously to a higher level.
If Wuhan Sanzhen and Chengdu Rongcheng play well and occupy the top two spots in the Central League, then Greentown will have no choice but to play the Super League play-offs once again.
Li Jianbin expected to join Chengdu Hibiscus
Although other teams do not yet see the signs of wanting to overtake the Super League, but once the attention of the consortium or the relevant departments, recruiting, aspiring to overtake the Super League is not impossible, like the previous year's Qingdao Yellow Sea. In addition, we can't rule out the possibility of dark horses. Under the new system, if the team plays a little bit better, there will be a possibility to break through to the Super League. If the team slowly picks up momentum, it is also entirely possible to fight to the death for the super league.
Third, the Green City lineup is naturally weak and has obvious vulnerabilities
Last year after the league ended.
Zhejiang Greentown
Immediately fired Jung Hung and negotiated a new head coach, Spanish-born Jordy. This is a sort of righting of the ship. From Serge to Zheng Xiong to Jordy, the Greentown team returned to the Spanish youth training camp La Masia style after a detour. This is more obvious for the improvement of the team's technical and tactical level. Compared to domestic coaches, foreign coaches, if they can be free from interference, the atmosphere of this unit is still quite good.
Green City Head Coach, Jordy
In addition, after learning that there is a possibility of being promoted to the Super League, Greentown brought in Yao Junsheng and Gu Chao, which greatly improved the strength of the team. Yao Junsheng, who joined the team last year on a lease, played the second stage and two additional matches, scoring goals and assists, which is a great help to the center field, while Gu Chao, as the main goalkeeper of Jiangsu team that won the Super League title, although there are occasional mistakes, but on the whole, the flaws do not cover up the excellence of the team, and it is not a problem to play in the Chinese First Division.
However, after the introduction of these two well-known players, the team's salary cap has exceeded the bottom line set by the FA. Therefore, after staying in the Central League, the team not only can't afford to bring in new recruits, but also has to lease out a number of players in the team to try to prevent being penalized by the FA. Of course, the penalty points said a little sensationalized, the Football Association is certainly the originator, but the consistent rules and regulations of Greentown, in order to avoid being criticized, certainly to grasp the time to operate the lease.
Gu Chao, back to Greentown
As a matter of fact, the issue of foreign aid has become the heart disease of Greentown team. The team's third foreign aid, Martins, confirmed his departure from the team early, and after returning to the Portuguese Premier League, he performed well and scored a lot of goals. Now Mu Xiekui is the top pillar of the front line, indispensable. Dino, the other original foreign aid, was basically discarded because he didn't meet head coach Jordy's requirements, not to mention that he was in Africa where the epidemic was so severe that he couldn't enter our territory.
Another foreign aid has actually been finalized a long time ago, and that is Matthews of the former Shijiazhuang Yongchang team. This Brazilian player is stronger and played well for Yongchang. The only drawback is that he is older and has been injured more often. The problem now is that he is also unable to enter our territory now. If he is able to enter the country, there is not much time left for him to gel with the Greentown team. Racing against time, this is one of the dilemmas of the Greentown team.
Dino, I'm afraid I can't come back.
In addition, former Chengdu Xingcheng's foreign aid Jurjiqi is on trial in Greentown's team, and in the match with Nantong Zhiyun a few days ago, Jurjiqi was on the field, and although he didn't score a goal, he had an assist. It was his pass in the opening five minutes that helped Long Wei break through the goal. Djurdjic was a starter for Chengdu Xingcheng last year, scoring not many goals, only 2 goals and no assists in the whole season. As a Serbian player, Djurdjic's footwork is okay, favoring the practical type, not fancy, but I feel that he is still almost interesting compared to Dino.
However, if we hold the principle that we'd rather not sign Djurdjic, then we'll have to wait until the summer window opens. With Mushiqui single foreigner, perhaps waiting for Matthews to enter the country to partner with Mushiqui, once Mushiqui or Matthews has an injury, then the striker's ability to score goals will be greatly weakened. In terms of this year's format, offense is far more important than defense. Defense may be able to win a draw, but it is the ability to attack that will open the door to success. Only success, only 3 points, will put the team in the top two.
Mushiakwe, perhaps the only foreigner in the first half of the Green City team
In fact, Greentown's defense is not solid at all. For three consecutive years, the Greentown team's center back reorganization, from Chen Xiao Wang Hong have a combination to talk about Yang Xu Jizu, this year the introduction of Liang Nuoheng as a mainstay, the effect is yet to be tested. And the back waist candidate, still under observation. The waist is not hard, you can not play hard, which is a key to the Greentown team.
Concluding Remarks: Don't get entangled in the long run to the Super League, but now take a step forward from the beginning.
After the farce of the replacement for the Super League, the Zhejiang team gradually calmed down. The team methodically continued to prepare for the warm-up, drawing 2-2 with Nantong Zhiyun and beating Nanjing City 6-0. Before the league kicks off on April 24, the team will also play warm-up matches with several teams to continue to sharpen the lineup.
Recently there will be many members received gifts from the club, especially the fan uniforms printed with the names of all members, the so-called same robe dedicated, nothing more. Although we were not able to change to Nike, which has been deeply involved in the recent Xinjiang cotton fiasco, and still have the Calmey brand, we have also collected our lost hearts and re-gathered our moods in preparation for following the team's journey to Wuhua, Meizhou. The schedule is not out yet, but as the start date approaches, fans' hearts are excited.
Greentown fans, full of expectations
The replacement of the super moment cool, but step by step super maybe a straight cool. As long as the firm conviction, the green city team fights down one by one, and finally reach the goal of the super, this feeling is a replacement for the super.
The same goes for the players, fighting for a win, a place in the Chinese Super League, a new world of soccer for themselves, and writing a colorful chapter for their careers, which should become the main theme of the 2021 season.
As a club that prides itself on its youth training, it is only right that it uses the Chinese Super League as the cornerstone of its growth. I don't expect to be at the top of the Premier League for a while, but I don't have any problem getting into the Premier League and becoming a mainstay.
Fighting!
If even take the so-called strong team of the Central League have no confidence, how to talk about the foothold in the Chinese Super League! Therefore, the face of raging Wuhan three towns, Chengdu Rongcheng, face in the home field only my unique Meizhou Hakka, Zhejiang Greentown should be excellent wisdom, courage, tacit cooperation and skillful technology and tactics, the battle and win, stand on the top of the Central League.
You don't owe us a championship, but you do owe us a Super League!
Fighting! Zhejiang team!
