The heart of Chengdu Rongcheng's midfield, Zhou Dingyang, the main back, will undoubtedly be the focal point of the national team's naturalization, with his interceptions and ball-breaking ability crucial. Playing alongside him, and expected to work together to build a solid matrix of backs, is former Evergrande midfielder Yan Dinghao. The two wings of the midfield will be played by Tang Miao and Israeli foreigner Gurfinkel, who will play the roles of free agents, who can help the team in the offensive end, and guard the safety of the defense in the defensive end. The two will need to be able to switch freely between offense and defense to ensure that the team is well prepared for both offense and defense.
In the forward line, Chengdu Rongcheng's main foreign striker Felipe will undoubtedly occupy a central position. Alongside him, local winger Wei Shihao and Brazilian winger Andrigo will create a trident that should not be underestimated. As for naturalized player Ekerson, he may still need to wait patiently for his chance to make a substitute appearance.
According to this analysis, Chengdu Rongcheng's starting lineup against Shandong Luneng may be: Zhang Yan; Yang Yiming, Timo Reichert, Yang Shuai; Tang Miao, Zhou Dingyang, Yan Dinghao, Israeli foreigner Gurfenkel; Wei Shihao, Felipe, Andrigo.
