In recent times, Beijing Guoan has become the most attention-grabbing team in the Chinese Super League. Because of the team’s recent poor performance, it has suffered a three-game losing streak in the league. The coach Xie Feng resigned due to the fault. The club has accumulated experience over the years. Various problems began to gradually surface.
After Xie Feng dismissed get out of class, Guoan veteran Wei Kexing returned to the front desk. Next, Wei Kexing will serve as the leader of the Guoan first team coaching staff, Sui Dongliang will serve as the temporary acting head coach of the team. Of course, this is just a stop-gap measure for the club’s temporary transition. It is reported that Guoan is actively contacting a new head coach for the team, and an old acquaintance of the Beijing fans may return to Guoan to coach the team.
For Guoan, no matter who the new head coach is, the top priority now is to revive the team's morale and adjust the team's tactics and starting lineup. Judging from the team's performance in the first 12 rounds of the league this season, at least three players should be kicked out of Guoan's starting lineup.
The first one is Guoan's captain Yu Dabao . Although this 34-year-old veteran has entered the end of his career, he is still the absolute main force in the team. This is not because of how good Yu Dabao's condition is, but because his position in the team's locker room cannot be replaced.
As we all know, Guoan’s wage arrears problem has never been truly solved. Some young players in the team are very dissatisfied with it. Some time ago, a popular international player even went to the club to ask for wages. Now the morale of the Guoan team is very low. It's not too high, and some players obviously don't work hard on the court. Therefore, facing the Henan team and Wuhan Three Towns , which have no wage arrears problem, it is not surprising that they have lost consecutive games by a large score.
As the veteran captain of the team for many years, Yu Dabao can control the dissatisfaction of the players in the team. As long as he says a word, no one in the Guoan team dares to listen. Therefore, even though Yu Dabao is in very poor form this season, Xie Feng still starts him in every game to help him "control" the players on the team.
It can be said that Yu Dabao played the role of "talker" in the Guoan team, but he was unable to perform better in the game. Whether he played as a defender or a forward, his performance was obviously unqualified. I believe that when a new coach comes, he will definitely be the first player to be discarded.
The second place is the veteran Zhang Chengdong who returned to Guoan this season. As a "direct descendant" of Xie Feng, Zhang Chengdong is one of the few players that Xie Feng asked the club to introduce this season, but now the 33-year-old The veteran is no longer the winger who was excellent both offensively and defensively in Guoan.
The growth of age and the troubles of old knee injuries have made Zhang Chengdong obviously unable to cope with the competition this season. Xie Feng once asked Zhang Chengdong to play at the center back and right back positions, but his performance was very unsatisfactory. Several goals conceded by the Guoan team were directly related to him.
Looking at it now, if Xie Feng uses Wang Gang, who is in better physical condition, to play the right back and a player with strong wing breakthrough ability to play the right midfielder, the effect will definitely be more ideal.
The last one is goalkeeper Houssen. First of all, we must admit that in the past two seasons, his condition and performance have been very good, but this season Houssen's performance has obviously declined a lot.
As of the 12th round of the league, the Guoan team has conceded 19 goals, averaging more than 1 goal per game. In addition to Guoan's very weak defense, Hou Sen also has to bear a large part of the responsibility. Especially in the game between Guoan and Wuhan Sanzhen, the opponent only took 7 shots and scored 5 goals. If Houssen's condition hadn't been so bad, Sanzhen would not have scored almost every goal.
The 1-5 defeat also directly caused Xie Feng to resign after the game. From this perspective, it was Hou Sen's poor performance in the game that indirectly triggered Xie Feng's dismissal.
In fact, the above three are just a few typical examples of the poor performance of Guoan players this season, which cannot explain how good the performance of other players is.For the new coaching team of the Guoan team, how to adjust the players' condition is the biggest problem that troubles them. Perhaps the only way to truly solve this problem is for the club to repay the wages owed to the players as soon as possible...
