Procession.
Had it not been for the Super League Association's unauthorized change of strategy last year, which reduced the number of places in the Super League from two to 1.5.
Zhejiang Greentown
(now Zhejiang Professional Football Team) has already succeeded in reaching the Super League in the 2020 season.
Had it not been for Long Cheng's blind strike and the referee's penalty, perhaps Greentown could have beaten Wuhan Zhuoer and squeezed into the
China Super League (soccer league)
Lineup.
Old Song, has been away from the Greentown team
We need not look forward to assumptions; the past is past and cannot be revisited, much less changed. The only thing that is solid is to be in control of your destiny.
The new season is about to start, Greentown team is sharpening their knives and waiting for the success of the Super League. The road ahead is bumpy, full of thorns, and full of dangers, so we must not take it lightly.
First, the new system, the number of variables increased, the super added uncertainty
Compared to last year's system, this year's conference system adds more rounds, 18 teams are divided into three divisions for a total of 34 rounds of matches (10+8+8+8), each team plays two matches against the other 17 teams, ranked by total points, the top two teams go directly to the Premier League, and the third and fourth teams play a playoff against the 15th and 16th place of the Premier League, with the winners going to the Premier League, and the losers kicking off to the Central League.
also called for by Director Yu
This fixture is full of variables. It means that if you want to make it to the Super League, you have to go all out in every game and minimize mistakes. Once you fall out of the top two, you can only advance through the play-offs, but it is too difficult for a Central League team to play against a Super League team. Even with the implementation of the foreign aid parity principle, in terms of strength, the Central League One teams are at a disadvantage. This can be seen in the two-legged match between Greentown and Wuhan Zhuoer last year, where Greentown played only half of a 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 resulted in Greentown losing the right to host the tournament.
Cheng Jin, more progress is needed
Last year, the Zhejiang Football Association (ZFA) made a bid to host the new season of the Central League, but ultimately gave up the hosting rights amidst the possibility of Greentown being promoted to the Premier League on a substitute basis. The result led to disappointment on both sides. The result cast a shadow over Greentown's promotion bid. Now all three divisions have home teams with strong momentum, which puts heavy pressure on Greentown, who is aiming for the Super League. It is still quite difficult for them to push the home teams to 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 an amazing 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) can continue to play such a home record this year, it will be very difficult for Greentown to stop the opponent's pace of super.
Yue Xin, strong in offense and weak in defense
Last year, the home teams of the other two divisions, Kunshan FC and Meizhou Hakka, also broke into the Super League group, so it is clear that there is still a certain advantage in playing at home.
And because of the different system this year, the ranking will be confirmed according to the total points, which may become the biggest danger for the Green City team. Take every step and play well to have hope.
Second, Wuhan three towns strength surge, Chengdu Rongcheng close pursuit, two teams have become the super favorite
The two teams that originally ranked ahead of Greentown, Changchun Yatai, who finished first in the Central League last year, and Shijiazhuang Yongchang (now Cangzhou Lions), who were relegated from the Super League, were promoted to the Super League, so according to the rankings, Greentown is the first team 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 Football Association policy, this year, a number of teams are difficult to continue, can only be dissolved. For example, Taizhou Yuanda, a city and county-level company could not afford the huge investment and chose to withdraw. Some other clubs are cash-strapped and struggling. But there are also some teams that have bucked the trend and continue to attract reinforcements, showing ambition. For example, Wuhan Sanzhen 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, assisting Qingdao Yellow Sea to win the Central League title as a starter the year before, and performing well with 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, Zhang Xiaobin officially joined. Among them, Zhang Xiaobin is stronger, has represented the national Olympic team in the Asian Cup, and entered the national football training list.
April 8 de transfer update, Wuhan Sanzhen lease Liu Yue, Xu Yue, Lv Haidong, Geng Xiaofeng and Zhang Wentao. Among them, goalie Geng Xiaofeng has the biggest reputation.
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 false statement to call them 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 introduced former Tianjin Teda foreign aid Jonathan and a number of internal reinforcements, Zhang Yan, Li Zhi, Gou Junchen, Han Guangliang, Han Xuan, Liu Bin, Gan Chao, Xiang Baixu, Xing Yu and other players to join, obviously improve the strength of the force, and there is no official announcement of Li Jianbin, in the South Korean coach Seo Jungwon's guidance, the force is being prepared in an orderly manner. Jonathan was the team's thigh when he played for Tianjin TEDA and made great achievements for TEDA's relegation.
Rongcheng did have a vision when they dumped Gyurgych. The abandoned Jurjić is now on trial with Greentown. Of course, this is not to say that Jurjić does not have the strength, but it is obvious that the foreign aid of Rongcheng compared with Greentown, obviously a level higher.
If Wuhan Sanzhen and Chengdu Rongcheng play well and take over the top two spots in the Central League, then Greentown will have to go to the Super League play-offs in disappointment once again.
Li Jianbin expected to join Chengdu Hibiscus
Although the other forces are not yet seen signs of wanting to super, but once the attention of the consortium or the relevant departments, recruiting ambition to super is not impossible, like the previous year's Qingdao Yellow Sea. In addition, we can not rule out the possibility of dark horses. Under the new system, there will be the possibility of a super league run if the team plays a little bit better. 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 weak, the vulnerability is obvious
Last year after the league ended.
Zhejiang Greentown
Immediately fired Jung Hung and negotiated a new head coach, Spanish-born Jordy. This is a kind of rectification. 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 introduced Yao Junsheng and Gu Chao, two big players, greatly improving the strength of the force. Yao Junsheng joined last year's lease, played the second stage and two additional games, there are goals and assists, a great help to the center field, and Gu Chao, as Jiangsu team won the Super League title as the main goalkeeper, although there are occasional mistakes, but overall, the flaws do not cover up the good, to play the Central League will not be a problem at all.
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 first division, the team not only could not afford to bring in new players, but also had to loan out many of the players in the team, trying to avoid being penalized by the FA. Of course, the penalty points said a bit appalling, the Football Association is certainly the originator, but the consistent rules of Greentown, not to avoid being criticized, certainly to seize the time to operate the loan matters.
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 early, and has performed well since his return to the Portuguese Super League, scoring constantly. Now the top pillar is Mu Xiekui, indispensable. Dino, the other original foreign aid, was basically discarded because he did not meet head coach Jordy's requirements, not to mention that he was in Africa, where the epidemic was severe, and could not 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. Race 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. A few days ago in the match with Nantong Zhiyun, 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 assisted Long Wei to 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 for the summer window to open. With Mu Xiekui single foreign aid, perhaps waiting for Matthews entry and Mu Xiekui partner, once Mu Xiekui or Matthews injury, then the front line scoring ability 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 the ability to attack 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, many members will receive gifts from the club, especially the fan uniforms printed with the names of all members, the so-called the same robe with one heart, nothing more than this. Despite not being able to change to Nike, which has been caught up in the recent Xinjiang cotton fiasco, and is still a Kalmyk brand, we have also collected our lost hearts and regrouped our moods, ready to follow the team to Meizhou Wuhua. The schedule is not out yet, but the hearts of the fans are getting excited as the start date approaches.
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 youth training, it's only right to make the Chinese Super League the cornerstone of its development. I don't expect to be at the top of the Chinese Super League for the time being, but it's not a problem to get into the Chinese Super League and become a mainstay.
Fighting!
If you don't even have the confidence to take down the so-called strongest team in the Central League, how can you talk about being based in the Chinese Super League! Therefore, facing the raging Wuhan Sanzhen and Chengdu Rongcheng, and facing the Meizhou Hakka, which is the only one who has pride in its home field.
Zhejiang Greentown
When with extraordinary wisdom, excessive courage, tacit cooperation and skillful techniques and tactics, the battle was won and stood 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!
