Suarez has made the switch from Traore-era defender to Guoan's main center back, a shift that signals a new season that will see him focus on a lineup of homegrown players led by Lin Liangming. Guoan's front line is full of stars, with top local players such as Lin Liangming, Zhang Yuning, Yang Liyu and Fang Hao. Lin Liangming, a new addition to the team last season, was heavily utilized by Suarez upon his arrival. Zhang Yuning plays an irreplaceable role in the team's tactical system. Whenever Guoan is caught in a game stalemate, Zhang Yuning is always quick to step up to the plate and win accolades with a performance that saves the day. When he first joined Guoan, Yang Liyu became the leader of the team's wingers with his outstanding performance, leaving a deep impression on the fans.
Fang Hao won the favor of Suarez's head coach with his courageous swordsman spirit. Against this backdrop, it is only natural that Guoan relies on local players to lead the way in the frontcourt. The two new stars, He Yupeng and Zhang Yixuan, have undoubtedly added thickness to the team's bench. Although He Yupeng is temporarily difficult to shake the position of the decorated player Wang Gang in the right back position, because Wang Gang in last season's performance is more and more brave, but Zhang Yixuan as a potential new recruit of Guoan, perhaps only as a substitute for the time being, until his strength is enough to meet the requirements of the starting lineup, the coach Suarez will consider letting him assume the main role.
