Linslutsky's tactical system of double strikers occupies the core, which makes the survival space of local attackers become extremely narrow. If you join Shenhua, you can only start from the bench, and your starting position is not guaranteed. There is no shortage of young and talented strikers in the Shenhua squad, such as local center forward Zhang Wei, who was loaned to Qingdao Hainiu, who made 22 appearances last season but had no income, and even had the experience of transforming into a center back from a striker. Next year Shenhua will still face the pressure of three lines of combat, Zhang Wei, such a young player may be able to play in the critical moment "golden oil" role.
At Shenhua, both winning and losing seem to be linked to Malelai, whose ability to capitalize on chances is a real concern. This winter transfer window, Shenhua focus on the introduction of foreign strikers. According to Xinmin Sports, Shenhua is looking for a new foreign striker with a very different style from Malelai, targeting the veteran Dadi. Although Dadi's goal scoring efficiency is not high, but his shooting success rate is impressive, every three throws will be able to score a goal, it is a good at seizing the opportunity of foreign aid.
Value for money is crucial when bringing in new foreigners. Shenhua's target for a foreign striker has not wavered and negotiations have been ongoing. They are eager to find players who are both affordable and efficient, which tests both the luck and the vision of the selectors. Shenhua's winter training will kick off in January next year, with key players such as Jiang Shenglong, Zhu Chenjie, Wu Xi and Yu Hanchao taking the lead. Players such as Dai Weijun, He Longhai and Zhang Wei will also return to the team, and they will compete for a place under Slutsky's inspection. One of Shenhua's regrets this year was the failure of the U21 v B match. If they cannot enjoy the dividends of double enrollment of young players next year, the impact on B may continue.
