Soccer study abroad new wind direction, refuse to blindly "match" trend!

In the fierce game, the time quietly went to the 80th minute. Jin Jingdao burst down the right side of the field like an arrow, and then sent a precise pass. Guo Tianyu, who was in the center of the field, was quick enough to overpower two Shenhua defenders, and jumped up to head the ball into the goal, which the Taishan fans were waiting for, but the ball regrettably passed through the goal. ! [Match Highlights](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/163img/20220911/2022095557535199011032418.gif) Guo Tianyu missed a great chance against Shenhua. This was not the only threatening attack for Taishan in this match, however, as always, it could not be converted into a goal in the end. The result of the match was announced: Shandong Taishan lost 1-2 to Shanghai Shenhua, a strong all-Chinese team. Guo Tianyu, who was sitting on the ground, first clasped his hands in the air and sighed, and then slammed his fist on the ground. When he got up, his face was blue and his heart was full of regret because he knew that this goal should have been worth a lot of money. Perhaps, what he regretted more, is that let him waste more than half a year to stay in the ocean career. The Journey of Staying in the Ocean On January 27, 2022, the Chinese Football Association (CFA) and Shandong Taishan Football Club (STFC) simultaneously announced that Guo Tianyu had joined Portuguese Super League club Vizela on loan. Shandong Taishan Football Club official announcement: In response to the Chinese Football Association "players to stay in the ocean plan", to strengthen the cultivation of Chinese soccer talents, to provide a better development platform for young players, by agreement with the Portuguese club Vizela and the player himself, Guo Tianyu joined the Portuguese Super League Vizela club on loan, the lease period to June 30, 2022. Guo Tianyu, born in Jinan in 1999, is a representative of Taishan's youth training program, and has been selected for the national team at all levels for many times.He made his debut for the club's first-team in 2017, and was loaned to Wuhan in the 2019 season.

Shandong Taishan Football Club has always been committed to cultivating Chinese soccer reserves, contributing to the development of the Chinese soccer cause as its own responsibility, will continue to actively respond to the call of the CFA, to provide strong protection for the domestic players to stay in the program, and to cultivate and transport high-quality players for the national team. I hope that Guo Tianyu will be disciplined in his new club, train hard and keep improving, Shandong Taishan Football Club will be your strongest backing. I wish Guo Tianyu all the best for the future! The CFA said: Shandong Taishan Football Club has always been committed to the cultivation of Chinese soccer talents, in order to contribute to the development of China's soccer cause as its own responsibility; now, they have provided a strong guarantee for China's outstanding soccer talents to stay in the world, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Shandong Taishan Football Club. Everything seems to be a good start. However, the Portuguese Super League has only finished 19 rounds of the league, there are still 15 rounds of the league waiting for Guo Tianyu, from the date of counting there are still 3 and a half months - so many rounds, so long time, enough to let Guo Tianyu better to feel the Portuguese Premier League, and even in the initial prediction, a lot of people also think, even if not enough time to play! The 3.5 months of high-intensity training and team confrontation will also be very beneficial to Guo Tianyu. But fate soon gave Guo Tianyu a joke, January 27 after the official announcement, originally should be immediately into the trip to stay in the ocean, but because of the visa problem delayed again and again, the reason is that, Portugal tightened the issuance of visas to the Chinese side, Guo Tianyu can only helplessly wait. Until 2 months later at the end of March, Guo Tianyu finally completed the visa, and in the meantime, the Portuguese Premier League played 8 rounds, only the last 7 rounds of matches waiting for Guo Tianyu, time, only one and a half months left. ! [Guo Tianyu's debut](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/163img/20220911/2022095753528324711032418.gif) In the end, Guo Tianyu made 3 appearances in the last 7 rounds of the league: in the 29th round, Guo Tianyu came on as a substitute in the 68th minute, in the 30th round, Guo Tianyu came on as a substitute in the 83rd minute, and in the 32nd round, Guo Tianyu came on as a substitute in the 88th minute. In 3 matches, Guo Tianyu played a total of 31 minutes (not counting extra time). Objectively speaking, Guo Tianyu's stay in China is just a passing phase, only one and a half months and 7 rounds of matches in total, in the complete lack of integration, Vizela was able to give Guo Tianyu a total of 31 minutes in 3 appearances, which is in fact, already the most benevolent and righteous. ! [Guo Tianyu's journey to stay in the ocean](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/163img/20220911/2022887514109110357532418.jpg) Guo Tianyu's stay in the ocean, stayed a lonely Guo Tianyu also has a very clear understanding of this, after he arrived in Portugal, he is completely not adapted to the rhythm of the Portuguese Premier League, not only the rhythm of the game, the rhythm of training can not be adapted. He said in a live broadcast, a training session during the game, the whole time he is almost anaerobic state, from the beginning of the lap is very intense, to the end of the training in the end he is in a state of confusion. Only limited playing time, in the absence of training to adapt to the guarantee, it is also very difficult to fully play out the characteristics of Guo Tianyu, including Guo Tianyu originally specialize in header, but because of the intensity of the game confrontation is not adapted to, but also did not play out. Considering the level of the Portuguese Premier League and the individual ability of Portuguese Premier League players, this platform is still significantly high for the 23-year-old Guo Tianyu at the moment. Guo Tianyu's current stay was a loan, and at the end of the loan, both Shandong Taishan and Guo Tianyu chose not to stay any longer. fall out of favor After the final round of matches at Vizela on May 14th local time, Guo Tianyu returned home, followed by isolation and then a short vacation. he flew to Haikou in early July to train with the team for a week, but after the first phase of Taishan's team on July 10th, the team went on vacation and re-centered on July 19th, and Guo Tianyu then began to prepare for the subsequent matches of the Chinese Super League. On August 6, Shandong Taishan played against Tianjin Jinmen Tiger in the 11th round of the Chinese Super League, Guo Tianyu started and played the whole game, but his performance was average. On another level, this game was also Guo Tianyu's first systematic game in 7 months. A striker who hadn't played a systematic game in 7 months (more accurately, he played about 40 minutes, i.e., 31 minutes of Portuguese Premier League (CPL) time plus some extra time) was in a very predictable state. Guo Tianyu played 34 minutes as a substitute for Shandong Taishan against Cangzhou Lions on August 12, and was also unable to put in an outstanding performance. ! [Guo Tianyu scored a penalty](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/163img/20220911/2022095754201595311032418.gif) August 15, Shandong Taishan 7-0 victory over Hebei, Guo Tianyu debut to play the whole game, but so many goals, Guo Tianyu scored only a penalty kick. After three rounds of matches, Guo Tianyu made one start and two substitutions, and finally in six matches starting from the 11th round of the Chinese Super League, Guo Tianyu played in all the matches, made three starts and three substitutions, and the number of goals scored was still the same as that of the penalty kicks. This match with Shanghai Shenhua, Guo Tianyu's anger and helplessness, reflecting Guo Tianyu's helpless experience in the past half a year or so. You know, just in the 2021 season, Guo Tianyu with 10 goals and Fellaini, Zhang Yuning tied for fourth on the scorer's list, and Zhang Yuning has 2 penalties, Fellaini has 1 penalty, Guo Tianyu's goal is no penalty, that season, in the top 20 of the scorer's list, Guo Tianyu is the only standard U23 player. ! [Guo Tianyu scrambling during a match](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/163img/20220911/2022496922909110357542418.jpg) From the scenery of last season, to the lonesome figure of this season, Guo Tianyu this stay in the ocean to bring the trauma is undoubtedly very serious. The same injury is also Shandong Taishan team, if Guo Tianyu not to go to the foreign and stay in the team, the early season of the striker weakness will not appear, as for this and Shanghai Shenhua game, in the case of Cressan and Fellaini have injuries, but also not to Guo Tianyu to play as a substitute, if it is the best Guo Tianyu, the game may not necessarily be lost. Of course, more hurt Shandong fans: watching Guo Tianyu never find the state, and Taishan team also suffered a block, very helpless. Reflection Is it wrong to stay abroad? Of course it is. However, it is not right to go abroad blindly without adequate preparation and careful research. I still say, of course, this stay is still valuable, at least Guo Tianyu personally witnessed the Europa League, after returning home, he also talked a lot, you can see, he also has a very deep feeling. But just feelings, other than that, there is no other value. More than a month's stay in the ocean time, a total of 31 minutes of playing time, can not talk about Guo Tianyu's ability to improve, on the contrary, because of the isolation after returning to the country and other factors, and largely affected his competitive state, and even directly interrupted his upward momentum. Looking back at Guo Tianyu's stay in the ocean, the lesson is undoubtedly profound: First, this is the Football Association led by the stay in the ocean, rather than Guo Tianyu hope to go to the stay in the ocean, stay in the ocean, ultimately to the player's subjective initiative as the basic premise, otherwise it is pulling Lang match; Secondly, Shandong Taishan Football Club is only passive with the Football Association, they actually may not be willing to Guo Tianyu to stay in the ocean, but do not want to fall into the obstruction of stay in the ocean of words; Thirdly, the platform chosen by Guo Tianyu really beyond the ability of the Portuguese Premier League, the rhythm and intensity aside, alone personal ability, Guo Tianyu is no advantage, and can even be said to be at a disadvantage. So, choose the right platform is the most critical, can play the game is the most critical, if it is another suitable for Guo Tianyu's league, even if only 7 rounds of matches, can play more time, or have goals, everything is different again. Fourth, the lack of relevant policies such as visa policy in advance preparation, so that signed but not go out, otherwise two months earlier out, Guo Tianyu have three or four months of time to integrate and sense, the situation may be better. Of course, there are also Taishan fans pointed out that Guo Tianyu obviously appeared to gain weight after his return, which means that his self-management during the isolation and vacation period or some problems, which is another reason why his current state is not good. Objectively speaking, what Taishan fans say is fine, and this is also a lesson that Guo Tianyu needs to learn in the future. At the same time, some fans also said that his mentality may have hindered his rapid recovery, because it can be seen in the game, he especially wants to score goals, but the desire for speed is not enough. No matter what, the matter has passed, for Guo Tianyu, he needs to forget this not so pleasant experience, also need to further strengthen his body, more need to further adjust his mindset. In fact, today's Guo Tianyu is only 23 years old, while in previous years this age of the players are still struggling for the U23 policy, and even some of the players played one minute and then replaced to cope with the U23 policy, so it's okay, put a stable mentality, everything will be fine.
