Zhejiang Greentown reorganized the river and mountains to wait for the summer window, and did not receive an offer from a foreign team for Wang Yudong

Reporter Zuo Rui reports After the first 13 rounds of games, Zhejiang Greentown 4 wins, 4 draws, 5 losses, 16 points, ranked 9th, scored 24 goals and conceded 20 goals, although such data does not meet internal and external expectations, but considering the impact of the accident, one after another difficulties, the team achieved such a record is indeed not easy to come by.

The tragedy of Gabon's foreign aid Bupenza falling to his death on the day of the 7th round of the league on April 16 not only shocked the Huanglong Stadium and even the entire Chinese football world, but also made the whole team of Zhejiang Greentown suffer a heavy blow that is "rare in football history". Caneda's team tactically lost a good center forward and were emotionally suffering like never before.

The direct impact of this accident on the team was a 2-2 draw at home to Meizhou in the 7th round and a 0-2 defeat to Tianjin in the 8th round away - the former game was forced to play with an all-Chinese class, and in the latter game, a small number of players did not even have the psychological conditions to start. What is commendable is that after a week of tactical and psychological adjustments, they defeated Qingdao West Coast 2-1 at home in the 9th round, and they got out of the haze and got on the right track.

After the battle, which marked a full recovery of the team, Caneda, who is still facing difficulties, said: "We gradually got used to the style of play without a number nine through training and games. We're getting in the mood and we're getting used to the new way of playing. "The so-called new style of play of the Spaniards is to passively transform the 523 tactics that have been painstakingly managed and have been formed into 532.

In the new tactical system, the defensive function of the three central defenders remains the same, and the high requirements of the two wing-backs remain unchanged, with the main change being the reduction of a central striker and the addition of a forward midfielder. In terms of the situation after the 7th round, because Bupenza's role is irreplaceable, Tao Qianglong's retreat has become the first choice. Since the implementation of the new style of play, Tao Qianglong has contributed 4 goals and 2 assists, and Wang Yudong, who has greater offensive responsibility and more authority, has scored 6 goals, and tied for second place in the scorer list with 8 goals after the 13th round.

Throughout the first 13 rounds, the balance between offense and defense has been a consistent pursuit of Kaneda, even in the face of difficulties. This means that his proposition has the full support of the whole team, and it is also the reason why he affirmed the team's performance from the understanding and implementation of the new tactics after the defeat to Tianjin in the eighth round.

In the process of dispelling the clouds with the new tactics, the role of the two wingbacks, Tong Lei and Sun Guowen, is obvious to all. But at this juncture, Tong Lei, who has both goals and assists, was injured in Tianjin, and he has not yet recovered to the extent that he can rest assured that he can play the whole game. The coaching staff's countermeasure was to move Sun Guowen to the right wing to replace Tong Lei, Wang Shiqin to change from left central defender to left wingback, and Liang Nuoheng to take Wang's position.

What's worse is that the defender Cheng Jin suffered a serious injury in the 11th round of the away game against Chengdu, and he also scored a hat trick of assists at home in the previous round. Without this heavy weapon of offensive and defensive balance, the 2-2 draw at home by Henan in the 13th round is only the initial price, and the next Cheng Jin at least two months of recuperation will allow Caneda to continue to rack his brains and squeeze the team's potential in the core position.

Relatively speaking, the back line is abundant, Liang Nuoheng was on leave due to illness in the 13th round, and while Wang Shiqin returned to his position, Yue Xin's offensive and defensive performance on the left side was remarkable. But overall, in order to reverse the current predicament of "pressing the gourd and lifting the scoop", the coming league break and the upcoming summer transfer window are a crucial opportunity for Kaneda and Zhejiang Greentown.

According to the reporter's understanding, the aftermath of Bupenza's death was handled relatively smoothly, the club bore the relevant expenses of the aftermath out of humanity, and the relatives of the deceased have also left Hangzhou and returned to Gabon. However, the adverse impact of this incident on the team's tactics is not expected to end until the opening of the summer transfer window of the Chinese Super League on June 23.

According to the policy of foreign players in the new season, each team is allowed to register up to 6 foreign players, a maximum of 5 people per transfer window, and 5 foreign players are allowed to play at the same time in each game. Zhejiang Greentown used 5 foreign aid places in the winter window, and there was 1 spare adjustment place in the summer window. If the vacancy caused by this extreme exception can be filled by the Central Football Union, there will be two places of leeway in the summer window. For now, the top priority is to bring in a center forward, and filling the tactical shortcomings is a matter of the overall situation.

Wang Yudong's astonishing outburst has triggered a large number of rumors of "staying abroad", but most of them are just good wishes. To date, the club has not received any clear interest from overseas counterparts to buy.Kaneda's view is that the 18-year-old is still in his formative years, and it is more suitable to stay in China, "precipitate and improve himself" in the Chinese Super League, and then consider going to Europe.
