Supposedly, with Li's trust and support for Luneng U23 players, these players should make a difference in the game and usher in an outbreak. However, apart from Zhao Jianfei, these U23s once contributed an assist to Luneng in the Super League, while other U23s' assists and goals in Luneng League were all zero. From the analysis of these two data, Luneng U23 players are indeed overestimated by the outside world and fans. Chen Kerui, the star of the commander, who is highly anticipated by Luneng fans, is the U23 player who is closest to Luneng's goal this season. Chen Kerui had two chances to score directly in this season's Super League, but unfortunately he didn't grasp it.
Luneng U23 players have fought on multiple lines this season, and the biggest contribution to the team is teenager Tian Xin. Tian Xin scored the winning goal in Luneng's FA Cup match against Zhejiang Greentown to help Luneng advance to the next FA Cup match. Tian Xin's goal is the only goal of Luneng U23 in multi-line combat this season. Judging from the overall performance of Luneng U23 this season, there are not many new stars who can really turn the tide in the competition.
So it is not difficult to explain why Hiddink rarely considers recruiting from Luneng when recruiting Olympic players for training. The overall strength and potential of these Luneng U23 players are not outstanding from their current performance in the league. A teenager who can really stir up the main force should be able to contribute assists or goals in two or three games. Obviously, the Luneng U23 players who have been reused by Li this season need to work hard in future competitions.
These Luneng U23 players are the future of the team, if they are not outstanding in the game. This shows that the overall quality of Luneng youth training is very general, which should arouse the attention and reflection of Luneng senior management. I hope that the players of Luneng U23 will perform well in future competitions and really challenge Luneng.
