Li Guoxu is fond of "counterattacking in adversity". This tactical strategy coincides with Xie Hui's philosophy. Once successfully overtaken, the key to the sustainability of this strategy lies in the team's ability to absorb new blood. At the beginning, Dalian Yingbo invested only 30 million in the Central League, ranking in the middle of the table. Limited funds at the beginning of the season, but Li Guoxu saw the hope of a breakthrough. For example, the introduction of Karanga, the establishment of a victory bonus, the expansion of the budget and other measures, all help to improve the strength of the team. If you want to be relegated in Super League, the budget needs to be at least doubled, and 90 million becomes the new threshold. !

In comparison, Dalian Yingbo's basic lineup is even weaker and in dire need of more investment. Li Guoxu pointed out that Dalian's soccer talent is broken, with a large number of veteran players over the age of 25 being used this season. If the team wants to play in the Chinese Super League (CSL) next year, it needs to bring in more powerful players and can no longer rely on veterans. Under the fierce rhythm of the Chinese Super League, the first thing the team faces is the lack of physical strength. Veterans like Zhao Mingjian and Yan Xiangguan may choose to retire after completing their super tasks. !

They have already performed well in the U19 national soccer team. In addition to the U21 regulations of China A team, Li Guoxu boldly uses young players, and the two newcomers show confidence as a result. As a head coach, Li Guoxu firmly believes that there is a bias against local coaches. Li Xiaopeng and Shao Jia have one or two local coaches who only joined the team in the second half of last season. Li Guoxu built the team with his own hands and led it through three years. Dalian Yingbo will not "remove the makeup and kill the donkey". If he is trusted, the team has already started to bring in new players.
