Under the shadow of the national team's training, Beijing Guoan's Round 5 showdown with Hebei was forced to be postponed, giving the team a rare respite, which was undoubtedly a blessing in disguise for Guoan.
Upon their return to the capital, the team immediately went into vacation mode, and although the internationals still had to prepare for the game, most of the players were able to enjoy their time of relaxation. Bilic and his coaching team also needed to adjust. During the closed training period in Suzhou, Bilic's daily routine consisted of sipping coffee and chatting, in addition to training and matches. Fortunately, this closure did not bother him too much, and he quickly adapted to this life. After returning to Beijing, he even visited the Great Wall with his foreign coaches.
After the holiday, Guoan has regrouped and started training at Fengtai Stadium. The training time is set at 11 o'clock in the afternoon, the length is about 100 minutes, including strength training, technical and tactical drills and confrontation, the training intensity is even more than the game period.
Despite the personnel of Guoan is not complete, the international players in the national team, the injury list and Bieira, Hou Yongyong, Yu Yang, etc., Yu Yang has recovered, but Bieira and Hou Yongyong still need some time, the two are currently in Beijing to recover on their own.
Bieira's injury has had a profound effect on Guoan, as he was injured in the 3rd round against Dalian Ren, and returned to Beijing for treatment after being substituted during the match. Conservative treatment is currently being taken and is expected to take fifty days, meaning he may not be able to return to action immediately after the break.
In addition to the injured players, Kim Min Ja returned to South Korea due to family matters, Augusto, Fernando is still stranded in Brazil, the three return date is not determined. Currently the team only has two foreign players left, Bakambu and Sosa.
The foreign aid problem is serious, if Guoan want to maintain the strength of the championship, the local players need to take more responsibility, the role distribution needs to be adjusted, but also as soon as possible to find a new foreign aid, the club seems to have been in action.
The good news is that Park Sung, who failed to participate in the first phase, can finally join the team's joint practice and participate in the confrontation training. His return will effectively alleviate the shortage of personnel in Guoan's midfield.
Guoan in the first phase of the first four games in the first suppressed and then raised, two consecutive defeats after two consecutive victories, the results are not ideal, the game exposed a lot of problems, Bilic hope that through the break to solve one by one. In addition, Guoan also need to be vigilant about the "holiday syndrome", the first game after the break, Guoan always play a more difficult, slow recovery of the players, Bilic attaches great importance to this, he said he will try to avoid this situation.
