Section 111 Stable starters
86_86638 and Kawasaki Frontale failed to win, although it was a bit of a blockage for Gao Shunyao, but for Tokyo FC, it was not a big deal. Getting a point against a team of Kawasaki's level is already quite satisfying for Tokyo FC. What's more, these days, the focus of their game is on the League Cup rather than the league. Tokyo FC has two games left in the League Cup, and the next opponent is Chiba Ichihara, a relegation underdog in the league. The last time they met in the league, Tokyo lost to them, which made Cheng Fuhao accumulate a belly of anger, and this time he met in the cup, he also ordered his team to increase the offensive and beat the opponent. This order is not very difficult to execute. Tokyo's strength is already strong, and in the face of this opponent, it is also an advantage. Moreover, in order to enhance the offensive, Jofuku Hiroshi also specially replaced Yuto Nagatomo as the left side starter, and his crazy insertion on the left side made Tokyo even more powerful, and won the opponent with a score of 3-1. And Gao Shunyao also scored a goal in this game. He received a pass from Yuto Nagatomo in the penalty area, turned around and fired a powerful shot into the top left corner of the opponent's goal, which was also considered the best goal of the game.
After the completion of this round of matches, Tokyo FC won four out of five games and accumulated 12 points, ranking second in the group, while Gamba Osaka won five games and five wins, and the score has reached 15 points and qualified ahead of schedule. The third-place Shimizu Heartbeat has two wins, one draw and two losses with 7 points, and the outcome of this group has been decided in advance.
Therefore, in the sixth round, against the Kobe Victory Boat, Tokyo FC played quite carelessly. Gao Shunyao also enjoyed the treatment of a protected player in this game, and after playing for 60 minutes, Gao Shunyao was replaced by Tatsuya Suzuki and began to accumulate body for the next round of the league.
During this period, Gao Shunyao basically played all the games. His runs on the pitch and his confrontations are the most in the game, and he also consumes the most physically. For tall strikers, there are times when the referee doesn't have much sense of protection. Gao Shunyao played a very tired game, and was replaced at an inconsequential moment so that he could accumulate his body, and there was nothing wrong with these practices. Even if it was a draw in Tokyo, which locked their final group points at 13 points, no one thought there was anything inappropriate.
However, what the media cared more about after the game was that it was not Hirayama Sota who replaced Gao Shunyao, but Suzuki Tatsuya - if Tokyo FC wants to make a counterpoint substitution, then Gao Shunyao and Hirayama are similar in size and are the best substitutes, and Suzuki Tatsu is only 1.7 meters, which is not the same style as them at all. There is nothing wrong with saving the body for Gao Shunyao, but replacing Suzuki Tatsuya at this time makes people criticize Cheng Fuhao a lot.
A coach who doesn't hate a player to the point that he can't make this kind of substitution decision. Even if the substitute time for an unimportant game is not given to Hirayama to play, Cheng Fuhao is also determined not to use him.
A while ago, the media also made a lot of accusations against Hirayama Sota, but no matter how much he blamed, Hirayama Sota can be regarded as a marginal international player of Japan. Even if people know that Hirayama has had all kinds of problems, and there is indeed a reason to be disliked by the coach, the media is still willing to speak for him.
What's more, even if the media is unwilling, Hirayama himself and his agent will not tolerate the coach putting a player on hold without restrictions. Contact the media, make some remarks, and put some pressure on the team through the media - it is never uncommon for players and coaches to have conflicts, and to use the media as a gun.
I don't know if someone is fueling the trouble, and the media are talking about it for a while. Some media think that Cheng Fuhao is too stubborn, as a rookie coach, he is inexperienced, and it is easy to cause team conflicts. Some media believe that although Tokyo's results have improved, it should be better if Hirayama Shota is used, and they should not idle their stars. And even the most biased media in Tokyo, when talking about this issue, all think that Cheng Fuhao should not suppress the players, and some people even suggested that Hirayama should play on a different team.
There are a lot of discussions, but unfortunately, Cheng Fuhao can't listen to them at all now. Qualifying for the League Cup, Tokyo has won a phased victory in a short period of time, which also gives Cheng Fuhao confidence. When it comes to the future of the team, he is even more tough.
'What players I use is my own business, and whoever can bring victory to the team, I use whoever wins. The players I've promoted are good, so why don't I use them? I don't have to use the Japanese internationals, I don't have to use the international players, I don't have to use the international players. â
For his own approach, Cheng Fuhao insisted very strongly, and he also understood that the team's results were too bad a while ago, and the team owed too many debts. He's got to stick to what he's doing, as long as it leads to victory so that his career doesn't start out in the first place, and he doesn't care about anything else.
Moreover, this was not his decision alone. Above him, there is also Da Xiong Qing supporting him.
His persistence is also a mixed blessing for Gao Shunyao, because of his persistence, Gao Shunyao naturally does not have to worry about losing his main position in the league, but this also means that Gao Shunyao must play better, otherwise, the Japanese media will not be able to spare him.
Fortunately, Gao Shunyao is still very confident in playing better.
During this time, he also discovered the key problem of playing in Tokyo. The J League is indeed at a higher level of strength than the JFL League, and many of them will be able to grasp Gao Shunyao in the JFL League, but in the face of J League players, it will be difficult for him to grasp it. He found that in this league he was better off going back to the style of play that flowed through the early days of the big game: more as a support player, helping his teammates get their chances.
This kind of kicking, Gao Shunyao is still full of skill. Moreover, in the team of Tokyo, his partner Kabore is also a top opportunity grasper, Gao Shun Yaochuang zĂ o opportunity, he grasps the opportunity, and the cooperation between the two can also be quite good. The only problem with playing like this is that Gao Shunyao will sacrifice his shooting opportunities, and Hirayama Sota can't adjust this mentality. However, Gao Shunyao is now starting from scratch, compared to not being able to play, sacrificing shooting opportunities is nothing.
In the face of the Yokohama Marinos, Ko did just that, and for 90 minutes, he was constantly running, accelerating, and depleting his opponent's body while creating chances for Kabore. Yokohama's attack was not good in the first place, and it was even jokingly called the Yokohama positioning team, and in the face of such an opponent, Tokyo also won another victory. In the game, one of the two winning goals scored by Kabore was a chance created by his own breakthrough, and the other was supported by Gao Shunyao's header.
Since Gao Shunyao determined the main position, in four league games, Tokyo FC has one draw and three wins, and his results have changed from the original four wins, one draw and five losses to seven wins, two draws and five losses, with 23 points, ranking sixth in the league. In the five group games, Tokyo won three, drew one and lost one, with 13 points, and qualified smoothly - on both fronts, they got very good results. As the main player, Gao Shunyao has started 10 times this season, with seven wins, two draws and one loss, which is enough to make people amazing.
Such an achievement is enough to shut up most of the media. However, even so, there are still some media outlets that are making some criticisms of Tokyo's approach at this time.
Of course, it's not the results that they are picky about: in terms of results, Tokyo can be considered impeccable. What they are critical of is not the issue of foreign aid, which is not clear, and can only be nonsense. In the eyes of these media, although Tokyo's results are good, they still have some hidden dangers.
The biggest hidden danger is that none of their opponents during this period of time are considered strong enemies.
"Gao Shunyao's ball skills have always played well in the face of weak teams, but whether his strength can still play at a high level in the face of strong opponents is also a question. Hirayama proved his worth against Kashima Antlers, but Taka was unable to play well enough in either the league against Kawasaki Frontale or the cup against Gamba Osaka. The next fixtures in Tokyo will not be easy, and it is worth thinking about whether they can play well. â
Although Gao Shunyao played reasonably well in the game against Kawasaki Frontale and Gamba Osaka, and did not get to the point of idleness, but since he didn't score and the team didn't win, it would never be wrong to criticize him for not doing well - in fact, even if he scored and won, you can blame the scene for being bad, there is no slaughter and other words, and the football game will never be perfect, so the accusation will never be wrong.
Moreover, when Gao Shunyao was picky, some media even found out which game Gao Shunyao's possible end would come.
"Gao Shunyao is a very good physical player, and he has a great advantage against many teams. However, it will not be long before Tokyo FC will start a league match against Nagoya Whales. In front of Nagoya Whale Eight, will Gao Shunyao's physical advantage still play a role? â
Once, when talking to Li Ze, Li Ze told Gao Shunyao that in the rest of the game, the most terrible opponent should be Nagoya Whale Eight. However, Gao Shunyao really lacks understanding of the team against Nagoya Whales. What he knows is that the coach of the Nagoya Whales used to be Arsene Wenger - but that was only for the past, and even Wenger doesn't seem to be a defensive coach, so why does the media think that the Nagoya Whales can look down on themselves? And even Li Ze sees it this way?
Gao Shunyao was a little puzzled by this question, and in the team, he also found an opportunity to ask his teammate Mori Shige. And after hearing his question, Masato Morishige immediately answered, "They think that the whale hachi looks at you because the Nagoya whale hachi has Maya Yoshida - the future first defender of the Japanese national team, you haven't heard of it, right?" âă
