In the season just past, Jinmen Tigers not only showed their talent in the league and the FA Cup, but also completed the relegation task with a speed beyond expectation, which made all the fans proud of them. In particular, the team's winning record at home has earned coach Yu Genwei praise for his coaching talent. Since he took the helm, Yu Genwei has always led the team forward with solid tactics and excellent leadership.
It is worth mentioning that Yu Genwei in the reinforcement strategy is also quite a lot of tricks. Previously in the national security difficult to get a chance to play Barton, joined the Jinmen Tigers, in the Yu Genwei's careful coaching a new life. Barton has not only become the backbone of the team, but has also been promoted to an international player. When Li Tie and Jankovic were in charge of the national soccer team, Barton was selected for the national team several times.
If Yu Genwei brought in Barton from Guoan to unearth a treasure, then he brought in Shi Yan from Taishan for a hidden agenda. Shi Yan was the youth training leader of Luneng after 2002, was the core player of the team, and was regarded as the key object of cultivation. Unfortunately, Shi Yan was injured at a crucial moment and failed to solidify his position in the Luneng first team. Just when Shi Yan's career hit a bottleneck, he met Yu Genwei.
Yu Genwei loaned Shi Yan from Taishan to Tsimshatsui Tigers and gave him a chance to play consistently. As the old saying goes, opportunities always come to those who are prepared. Shi Yan played for Jinmen Tigers in the Chinese Super League and performed brightly, contributing two goals. As a result, Yu Genwei officially bought Shi Yan from Luneng for 70,000 Euros.
However, Shi Yan's form was in a slump after he officially joined Jinmen Tigers. Last season, plagued by national team call-ups and injuries, Shi Yan's playing time and number of appearances in the Jinmen Tigers were drastically reduced. Under these circumstances, Shi Yan failed to contribute goals to the team. As the team's main striker, Shi Yan was unable to score any goals for Jinmen Tigers last season, which is an unbelievable result. Expect Shi Yan to regroup next season and become the team's leader on the offensive end once again.
