The latest information disclosed that the policy of foreign aid in the Chinese Super League will continue to be consistent, but the maximum number of registered foreign aiders will be reduced from the previous seven to six. This means that the maximum number of foreign aiders that each team can register at the same time is reduced to six, five of whom can be included in the match list, while the actual field of foreign aiders can only have a maximum of five people on the same field of play. This change will undoubtedly bring unprecedented challenges to the clubs' attraction strategy, lineup construction and tactical deployment, especially for those teams aiming to win the championship or relegation. How to optimize the layout of foreign aid in the winter off-season has become a top priority.
With the upcoming new season, Taishan's management needs to carefully calculate and efficiently adjust the foreign aid configuration in order to seize the lead in the competitive league. It is known that Wako, Cressan and Zeca will continue to stay in the team. Wako, with his excellent physical quality and comprehensive skills, is the backbone of the team's defense line; Cressan, with his sharp breakthroughs and accurate shooting, has shown remarkable strength in the midfield; Zeca, as the core of the team, is naturally highly anticipated. The three stay in the team to provide a solid cornerstone for the team lineup.
However, looking at Shandong Taishan's current lineup, the introduction of a good foreign back in the winter break is particularly critical. Although the midfield of Shandong Taishan last season has many domestic players, but in the face of high-intensity, fast-paced game, the team often appear to be insufficient control, especially in the defense to attack the conversion process, the lack of a rapid combing attack, accurate passing core back. This is the main factor of the poor performance of Shandong Taishan last season. An excellent foreign back can not only enhance the solidity of the team's midfield, but also through accurate passing and excellent vision, become a key link between the backfield and the front.
