Since Cui Kangxi took charge of the Shandong Taishan team coaching whip, this season the team achieved remarkable results, not only won the second place in the Chinese Super League, but also won the second place in the FA Cup, the AFC Champions League is to the second group status to advance. Prior to this, Shandong fans could only fantasize about such results. Although Shandong Taishan failed to win the championship this season, the fans and the team's management all spoke highly of Cui Kangxi's coaching ability. Next season, Cui Kangxi will be fully responsible for the team's affairs, Shandong Taishan give him greater autonomy, let him according to his personal philosophy of reshaping the team. In the introduction of foreign aid, Shandong Taishan will create 4K combination, and strive to form a new trident in the front, solid team axis.
In the face of the current downturn in the Chinese Super League, the competition for team strength is mainly focused on the level of foreign aid. If a team is able to introduce several powerful foreign aiders, its performance is bound to be not bad. However, in order to introduce quality foreign aid, the team's performance in the Chinese Super League and financial strength are key factors. In terms of financial strength, Shanghai Port in the Chinese Super League can be said to be the only one in the world. Domestic players are mostly international players, and the strength of foreign aid is not to be underestimated. This season, Shandong Taishan lost to Shenhua in the Chinese Super League and unexpectedly lost to Yokohama Mariners in the final round of the group stage of the AFC Champions League, exposing the gap between the team and the strongest teams.
With the departure of Fellaini and Moises, Shandong Taishan has accelerated the pace of foreign aid adjustment, and Cui Kangxi has also reacted quickly on foreign aid adjustment. At present, the team has identified two foreign aid, the contract is basically negotiated, respectively, the center Zeca and front field versatile Kaza. The two offensive ability is outstanding, will inject new vitality for Shandong Taishan team. Coupled with two years of Cressan, the three will jointly form the team's new offensive trident. They are not only skillful, Zeca and Kressan also have a certain height.
These three are expected to solve the problem of Shandong Taishan's single attacking mode in front of the field. Choi Kang-hee's favorite Baek Seung-ho failed to join the team, and Wakaso, a player who has turned into a free agent, has become a potential candidate for the Shandong Taishan team. Despite his age, Vakaso's defensive stability and passing ability is excellent. Together with Jadason in the backline, Shandong Taishan is expected to introduce five foreigners, namely Zeca, Kaza, Vakaso and Kressan. All four names have the "K" sound, so Shandong Taishan team will form a 4K combination.
These five foreigners will be the main framework for Shandong Taishan next season. The frontcourt is led by Zeca, Cressan and Kaza, the midfield is anchored by Wakaso, and the backline is Jadson. They will be the cornerstone of Shandong Taishan's team building. Despite Jadson's dip in form, it is not possible to replace all the foreigners considering the team's limited budget. As for the sixth foreigner, Pato, it will be up to Choi Kang-hee to decide whether he can stay in the team next season. I expect Shandong Taishan to make a qualitative leap in strength by replacing their foreign aid. What are your thoughts on this?
