More often, Zhang Sheng even supports the flow of players, hoping that they can take away the new training methods and new tactical concepts of the Longteng team, and at the same time improve the overall level of the Chinese Super League.

But this also depends on what position the player is, because some positions are in great demand and candidates are scarce, such as Zhou Wei, who proposed a transfer this time, and his position as the goalkeeper.

As a player who was called out as early as the second division league, he belonged to the early batch, and those players had a common feature, that is, they all had obvious shortcomings, Zhou Wei's biggest shortcoming was that he was not concentrated, which led to unstable performance.

For example, some time ago, Zhou Wei played away at Jiangsu Suning, and Zhou Wei played a mess at the start, and now it seems that he should be secretly talking about the transfer at that time, so he thought too much about the game.

Want to buy Zhou Wei is Kaisa, who joined the Shenzhen team at the beginning of this year, they failed to surpass this year but succeeded in relegation, and Kaisa has no opinion on this achievement, but the experience of Kaisa's boss makes him want to invest in football to get some "branding".

Therefore, Kaisa's investment budget next year is 300 million, and there is only one goal, which is to surpass.

So finding a reliable goalkeeper for the team is a top priority, after all, a good goalkeeper tops half the team.

The problem is that Kaisa wants a reliable goalkeeper, and the Longteng team also needs a reliable substitute goalkeeper, look at Zengcheng's injury and can't play, Liu Dianzuo's performance, and then think about the first season of the Chinese Super League, his team because the substitute goalkeeper is unreliable, and he didn't win a championship, so he knows how important the substitute goalkeeper is.

Now Zhang Sheng has three summoned goalkeepers and two non-summoned goalkeepers.

Among them, the first goalkeeper in the ranking is undoubtedly Huang Dawei, the second goalkeeper is Zhou Wei, and the third goalkeeper should have been Song Dongdong, a talented goalkeeper, but he is still in the final stage of recovery from injury - he will be able to follow the team for winter training next season, but he is too young to have no experience and poor ability, and he has not played for a year after the operation, so it is difficult to judge what the actual situation is.

Two non-called goalkeepers, one only has an ability value of less than 70, which is a level that can only play in the first division, and can only play in the reserve league in normal times;

If Zhou Wei is really gone, then once Huang Dawei is injured or suspended from the game, the goalkeeper who comes up to replace him will be too unreliable.

However, Zhou Wei really couldn't stop Zhang Sheng if he wanted to go, and his reasons were very good: "I was a starter before, I had games to play, and I could enter the national team." Now there is less time to play on the bench, let alone the national team. So I want to go to a team that can play as a starting goalkeeper. ”

"It's impossible to play as a substitute, and it's impossible to play as a substitute in your life. As long as I can play as a starter, even if it is to go to the Chinese league team, I am willing. Zhou Wei made his bottom line clear.

Zhou Wei's words made Zhang Sheng very helpless, the substitute goalkeeper is indeed a very awkward position, and he sits on the cold bench at every turn. If it is a player who has always been very ordinary, it is okay to sit on the cold bench patiently, a player like Zhou Wei who has started games for the national team is the kind of active character, and you let him sit on the cold bench to play as a substitute, it is impossible.

"I agree to your transfer request. After pondering for a while, Zhang Sheng still put it down, "Of course, if there are multiple clubs that promise to start for you, we will choose a higher price." ”

"Thank you, boss!" Zhou Wei quickly smiled, Kaisa must have done a good job by contacting him so early, and it was basically decided.

Of course, according to Zhou Wei's level, Kaisa has a big business, and it will not open any outrageous prices, more than 50 million is the lowest price, after all, it is the former country.

After letting Zhou Wei go, what Zhang Sheng has to do now is to recruit another goalkeeper as soon as possible, although he will definitely not need it for a while, but he must be prepared first. After seeing that he still had 260 points, he was going to use it to summon the youth coach to use it for the player's call.

On November 19, the AFC Champions League final began, and Guangzhou Evergrande welcomed the challenge of Al Ain at home.

Al Ain from the UAE league is one of the best clubs in West Asia, a team with money and a lot of European internationals, but the real core of them is Omar, who is known as the "Messi of the Gulf", a real talent.

At least at the level of the AFC Champions League final, he has shown a high level.

Because Lin Feng was injured in the national team, he was unable to attend the game, Guangzhou Evergrande's midfield tandem ability weakened a lot, and Scolari chose a more hard-bridge and hard-horse style of play, that is, relying on pressure and impact, Diego Costa's threat in the front court is very big.

Al Ain is obviously not afraid of Guangzhou Evergrande's style of play, and the foreign players they choose are also black and hard players, keen on confrontation and individual breakthroughs.

Throughout the game, the two teams switched between offense and defense at a fast pace, and under the relaxed scale of the referee, the action was also very large.

In the first half, when both sides were in good shape and were able to maintain their concentration, it was still a draw, and by the time the second half was almost seventy minutes into it, the goals of both sides came.

First up was Al Ain's Omar who provided the assist with his Messi-esque pass, and their striker Asprilla volleyed into the net to break the deadlock, this time with Li Xuepeng, who had just returned from injury.

Fortunately, Diego Costa was strong enough, he first received a pass from Goulart in the 77th minute to shake off Al Ain's central defender and scored a crucial equalizing goal, and then in the 82nd minute, he successfully teased the opposing player, let the opponent push him down in the penalty area, and got the penalty.

But then their players were a little annoyed and angry, Goulart was directly shoveled off the field by the players who came up from the opponent's bench, which can be described as a blood loss, and then Li Xuepeng was strained again, which made Evergrande's side even worse.

Fortunately, Evergrande finally held on to the score of 2:1.

A week later, in the second round on November 26, Evergrande, which was full of wounded soldiers, was considered a mourning soldier.

Luckily, just three minutes into the game, Guangzhou Evergrande scored from their first corner, with Paulinho's header breaking the deadlock.

However, in the AFC Champions League, the loss of the East Asian team to the referee is particularly obvious in this game. Guangzhou Evergrande's midfielder has strong confrontation ability because Paulinho is there, and Al Ain frequently uses fouls to sabotage Evergrande's counterattack. The action on the court was even bigger than the first round, and during the game, players from both sides got tangled up several times and both fell to the ground, but they both quickly got up and continued to scramble.

After continuously interrupting Guangzhou Evergrande's attack, Al Ain, who was fighting at home, gradually occupied the initiative on the field under the organization of Omar, but their striker was too strong to spit cakes and wasted Omar's countless good goals.

In the 35th minute of the first half, Al Ain finally took advantage of a corner kick opportunity to pull the score back, this time by Lee Myung-joo, a midfielder from East Asia and South Korea.

After the referee awarded Al Ain a penalty in the 40th minute, only to be kicked away by their players, the emotions on both sides became more and more difficult to control.

In stoppage time, Zheng Zhi fell to the ground in a scramble, but the referee did not stop the game, and the Al Ain players did not stop attacking after winning the ball, resulting in a fierce dispute between the coaching staff of the two sides on the sidelines. In the end, the head coach of Al Ain and the assistant coach of Evergrande were sent off to the stands, but Zheng Zhi was replaced at half-time.

In the second half, Guangzhou Evergrande basically became Al Ain's defensive props, the UAE team attacked countless times, and countless times shot the ball away, in the second half alone, they had 14 shots, 6 shots on target, Liu Dianzuo was like Buffon possessed, and saved the ball on the goal line again and again with various actions.

Until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the score was still 1:1.

In the end, Guangzhou Evergrande used their strong mental strength to hold the game, defeating Al Ain with an aggregate score of 3:2 and winning the second AFC Champions League trophy in team history.

Although Evergrande lost the east corner of the harvest of Sangyu, after losing the league championship, won the AFC Champions League, but the price of this championship is a bit big, because 3 days later is the FA Cup final, these two rounds of the game, including Zengcheng, Li Xuepeng, Zheng Zhi, Lin Feng, Gaolat is definitely unable to participate in the game, Shu Jun found that the knee water after the game can not participate in the first leg of the game, whether to participate in the second round, depends on the recovery.

On November 30, Guangzhou Evergrande, who was playing at home, put on a very poignant lineup, and Goulart's position was replaced by Alan who had been absent for a long time. The other position players are miserable, the two fullbacks are Zou Zheng, who is in poor form, and Wang Yuandi, whose level is not flattering; the central defender Mei Fang has an injury and no one can change it, so he can only be hard; Paulinho Gaglio Lisheng's double back is not reassuring at a glance, Zheng Long finally played the starting line-up line, plus Gao Lin and Diego Costa, it is a little bit interesting.

With such a lineup, coupled with average physical fitness, even if it adopts a defensive counterattack style of play, Guangzhou Evergrande is also very difficult to defend.

At the end of the first half, a wave of onslaught from the Dragons, scored a goal by De Paul, leading 1:0 on the road, and in the last ten minutes of the second half, Nie Jiang scored two goals in a row to expand the score to 3:0.

In the end, in the first leg of the FA Cup, Guangzhou Evergrande, which lacked major generals, was defeated 1:3 by the Longteng team at its home stadium and gained the initiative.

Perhaps it is the successive relegation battles of the Chinese Super League, the defense of the AFC Champions League of the Chinese Super League and the brave performance of the national team have consumed the enthusiasm of most fans, and this year's FA Cup competition between the two is not as hot as expected.

In the second round, although Evergrande Shu Jun and Mei Fang's injuries were basically alleviated after a week's rest, Yu Hanchao made a quick comeback and continued a wave, but the lack of too many main forces still made Evergrande not play well.

Guangzhou Evergrande has been trying hard to get goals, Goulart's absence has left Diego Costa without a good helper, and Paulinho has to spend a lot of energy defending in midfield, Evergrande's attack has been sounding but not landing.

On the contrary, it was the Longteng team that took advantage of Guangzhou Evergrande's eagerness to score a goal, and Tao Wentao successfully attacked and scored a goal near the end of the first half.

The total score of 1:4 behind, so that Evergrande gave up the last struggle, in the second half more than 30 minutes, seeing that the goal was hopeless, Scolari began to let Zhang OK and other players born in 2000 begin to feel the atmosphere, and the corresponding Longteng team also sent players like Shen Jun and Wang Xing who were difficult to play.

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, Chen Jiangfeng, who came to watch the game with his new girlfriend, raised his face fiercely, of course, as a college student from a famous university, Chen Jiangfeng still spoke at a very high level: "You are really my lucky star, you see that our team won the championship as soon as you came, and our first time was so happy." ”

The end of the FA Cup also means that the 2016 season, all the official end of the Longteng Club, compared to other clubs, the holiday is relatively late, of course, Guangzhou Evergrande, which has to play the Club World Cup, is the team with the latest holiday.

Most of the Chinese Super League teams have basically started winter training for the 2017 season. This season's a little frustrated Shanghai Shuangxiong, SIPG began to assemble on December 4, compared with history, Shenhua, who lost the AFC Champions League qualification, began on December 1, and several teams that have been relegated every year include Yanbian Fude, Henan Jianye, Chongqing Lifan, and Changchun Yatai are also concentrated around December 5.

Zhang Sheng's plan is to take a month's vacation after the summary meeting, so that the players who have worked hard for a year can have a good rest, and then gather for winter training.

On December 4th, the annual Longteng Club season summary meeting was held.

As in the past, the annual club summary meeting is to award awards and pay money, and the most eye-catching thing is the selection of foreign players.

Last season, when everyone thought it was Lin Feng, Zhang Sheng announced Nie Jiang, and later it turned out that Lin Feng was indeed leaving, and Nie Jiang was corrected as the main striker, but I don't know who it will be this year.

Compared with the slightly distant goal of Liuyang, the players entered the first expected climax after patiently listening to the reports of the various leaders of the club: the bonus was issued.

According to the previous bonus reward principle set by the Longteng Club, although it is less than last year's bonus because of the AFC Champions League champion, this year is a large amount, at least the Longteng team will send out 10 million this time.

In addition to the prize money, the best player, top scorer, best homegrown goalscorer and best improved player awards were also announced within the club.

Nie Jiang scored 18 goals this season, and he is not only the team's top scorer, but also the best local scorer, and the best player, and finally won the best improved player, with a reward of 100,000 yuan for each award, it can be said that he is the most fruitful person tonight.

"I remember when the boss approached me and asked me to play professional football, I was playing wild football and bringing money. Nie Jiang's pause here caused a group of people below to laugh, and he didn't care about continuing to say his acceptance speech, "I thought about it at the time." I can get 10,000 or 20,000 yuan when I play more than one game, who are you, can you afford to give that money?"

This time, everyone laughed even harder.

Nie Jiang waited for everyone to laugh, and then said very seriously: "Now, I am doing what I love the most, and with a salary that I couldn't imagine before, I feel that I am the happiest person in the world." Thank you boss, thank you club. ”
