Chengdu Rongcheng's forward line suffered a major blow, with the unexpected departure of Tang Chuang and the early termination of the contract of naturalized player Aixon, instantly revealing a huge gap in the team's center forward position. This is a serious test for a team aiming to win the championship. In particular, the absence of Eckerson has severely affected the team's offense and efficiency. Chengdu Rongcheng urgently needs to find a center who can integrate into the team's tactical system and also come through in critical moments, and filling this gap has become the team's top priority at the moment.
In the midfield, the addition of Yan Dinghao did not bring the expected tactical innovation, and he only had a few chances to play, and more often than not, it was the alternation between Feng Zhuoyi and Baitijiang. With Feng Zhuoyi turning 36 and Baitijiang turning 34, it's doubtful whether their fitness and athleticism will be able to meet the demands of the team's multi-front campaign. Therefore, the rejuvenation of the midfield and the improvement of its strength have become the most urgent task. The club urgently needs to explore potential new stars to inject vitality into the team, and at the same time ensure the stability of the midfield lineup.
As for the defensive line, despite the team's reinforcements this year, management still has reservations about the efficiency of the defensive end. This implies that even though the personnel seems to be sufficient, the team still needs to make targeted reinforcement on the backline. Whether it's improving the quality of the defense or enhancing the team's ability to combat high balls, it's a key factor that the team's recruiting class must consider.
To summarize, Chengdu Rongcheng is facing a drastic adjustment of its lineup in the new season. The effectiveness of the reinforcements will be directly related to the direction of the team in the new season.
