Chapter 190
On August 18, the day before going to South Korea, Ding Yu announced the roster of [-] players.

Only 18 players can be selected, which really made Ding Yu exhausted. In addition to the starting lineup, he can only bring seven substitutes. This makes Ding Yu only select players based on their status and position. In addition to status, he must first choose those generalists.

"Two goalkeepers, Wu Bufan and Fan Tong."

After hearing Ding Yu report these two names, Qin Xiaolei from Hubei sighed sadly. He also knew why he lost the selection-Wu Bufan is characterized by his stable state and excellent goal-line skills, and Fan Tong is also a very stable goalkeeper.

"Six defenders, Long Xing, Wang Bang, Li Jie, Niu Ren, Gao Zhifa, Chen Jian."

"Seven midfielders, Hu Gandang, Zhou Zhou, Zhang Yi, Dai Guangming, Jiang Qi, Huang Zhenghong, Gu Yu."

"Three forwards, Long Bisheng, Fan Pengfei, and Lin Jianwei!"

The players whose names were reported clenched their fists in unanimous agreement, while the players whose names were not read sighed, but no one had too many opinions. First, Ding Yu had already made it clear in advance that even if he failed to make it to the final 18-man roster, there will still be opportunities in the future. Their age group, the National Youth and the National Olympics are all in the same line, and there will be more opportunities in the future; The list is generally fair, and the players selected are all in the best condition and most capable in this training camp. More importantly, many of the players selected this time can play two or more positions.

For example, Long Xing can play both sides of the defender, such as Gao Zhifa, who can play right back and right midfielder, Gu Yu, who can play in the middle of the midfield and left, Lin Jianwei can play forward and midfielder, Huang Zhenghong can play left back in addition to the midfielder...

When only 18 players can be selected, the coach naturally has no way to make each of the [-] positions, one carrot and one hole, one main player and one substitute.

"The players who have not been selected will return to their respective clubs tomorrow, but I hope you can remember what you have learned in the past half month and what you have learned about other teammates. This half month will definitely not be spent in vain for you. I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you next time."

Ding Yu's remarks completely regarded the players as equals to him, not his subordinates-this also made the players who lost the selection feel much more comfortable.

Now that the final roster has been settled, the players stopped talking. Those who were eliminated were congratulating their good friends who were selected, and those who were selected were also comforting their friends who were eliminated. They will all leave the training place provided by Qingdao Starfish Club tomorrow. Those who were selected will fly directly to South Korea to prepare for the final training, and those who were not selected will return to their respective clubs to prepare for the next league.

****************************************
Although he was selected into the final 18-man roster, Long Bisheng is a bit annoying recently. His loan contract has ended after the end of last season. Originally, the Naples club planned to use the right of first refusal to buy him, but Naples signed Argentine striker Lavezzi and Uruguayan midfielder Grigera some time ago, using up all the non-EU players this season. The reason is very simple, what you Naples has is the right of first refusal, not the right to always be able to rent!

Now Yunjiatianyu has enough confidence to challenge and bargain with any club in Europe. Besides, they have their own reasons for this matter-it has been loaned to you for a year and a half. Now you don’t need to use the non-EU player quota for other players and don’t use it for Long Bisheng. Are you discriminating against Chinese players?It was understandable that there was only one non-EU quota in the past, but now that there are two, no one is willing to use one for Long Bisheng!

Naples is also suffering. After being promoted to Serie A, they will definitely introduce players to increase their strength. Originally, the non-EU players they planned to introduce were Grigera and Long Bisheng, but just before the pre-season training camp, Carajo was injured and missed three months. In desperation, they could only introduce Lavezzi, a fast horse.

Ning Xi asked for Long Bisheng's opinion. Now there are teams in Serie B who have taken a fancy to Long Bisheng and hope to introduce him, but Long Bisheng still hopes to stay in Naples. After all, he is more familiar with Naples and has laid a good foundation in the past year and a half. What's more, in Long Bisheng's heart, he already feels that he is not willing to play in Serie B. A player always has to set his sights higher.

After seeking Long Bisheng's advice, Ning Xi began to frequently fly back and forth between Yunjia and Naples, trying to get a perfect result. This relatively complicated transfer was also a great exercise for Ning Xi. Fortunately, Liu Lin helped her come up with a lot of ideas. Otherwise, Ning Xi was inexperienced and she was afraid that her wrong decision would affect Long Bisheng's future.

Ning Xi's maneuvers haven't yielded any results for the time being. Yunjiatianyu has reason to refuse, while Naples feels a bit rascal - anyway, the two non-EU quotas have been exhausted, we can only choose to rent, what do you say.

However, there was no result for the birthday, but Ning Xi reassured Long Bisheng that his loan would not be a major problem in the end. Yunjia Tianyu just used this incident to show their attitude. They don't want their players to be always the last to be introduced when they go to Europe.

Only then did Long Bisheng relax a little bit, but he still felt a little uneasy. After all, no one can be sure whether he will be able to appear at the San Paolo Stadium in Naples next season when the matter is not finalized.

Under such circumstances, Long Bisheng and the Chinese National Junior Team ushered in the first match of the World Junior Championships, on August [-] against the Argentine National Junior Team.

****************************************
Argentine football's status in world football naturally needs no further mention. Although in the history of the World Junior Championships they have not reached the final record once, only won the third place three times and the fourth place once, but in the history of the World Youth Championship.

The schedule of the Chinese National Youth Team is also very bad. The first game is against Argentina, and the second game is against Spain. The opponents in the first two games are among the best teams in the world.

In a competition like this, if you want to qualify as No.3, you need at least four points—this has become the consensus of everyone.

So in this game, Ding Yu's goal is to focus on defense.

The starting lineup of the Chinese team is four-five-one, goalkeeper Wu Bufan, four defenders from right to left are Gao Zhifa, Zhang Jian, Li Jie and Long Xing, midfielders Hu Gandang and Jiang Qi are the double midfielders, surrounded by left, Zhang Yi is on the right, Dai Guangming alone undertakes the important task of organizing the attack, and Long Bisheng is at the front.

This tactic made Long Bisheng feel a little familiar. Naples adopted this tactic in the second half of last season. Long Bisheng was at the top, and behind him were three attackers with excellent speed and technique. The offensive line, which is composed of European players and played together since childhood, is Ding Yu's biggest asset in leading the team to participate in the World Junior Championships this time.

What worried him was the defense. The five main defenses in his mind came from five different clubs—Gao Zhifa from Shandong, Zhang Jian from Dalian, Long Xing who was loaned to Shenyang by Dalian, Li Jie from Hoffenheim, and Wu Bufan from Antwerp.

Fortunately, Zhang Jianlong star Jiang Qi was born in Dalian Oriental Football School, and Hu Gandang, Li Jie, and Wu Bufan came out of Yunjia Tianyu Football School. The two teams have played against each other quite a lot, so Ding Yu can use a month for them to gradually establish a tacit understanding.
