On November 24, according to media reports, former international Xu Liang "cried" about his injustice in the live broadcast and failed to participate in the A-level coach training class held by the Chinese Football Association.
According to the report, a total of 216 people signed up for the training course, and finally 24 people were admitted, and Xu Liang failed to enter the admission list. He said that except for a few players such as the former women's football international Lou Jiahui, he had not heard of the remaining more than ten people. "I think it's not fair, I can not learn this, every training course can be without me, even I can not do the relevant work, I just want to tell these things to everyone, let everyone judge." 」
Is it really unfair? First, let's take a look at the A-level coach training course held by the Chinese Football Association this year:
On May 14, the Chinese Football Association issued the "Notice on the Registration of the First A-level Coach Training Course in 2021", which clearly mentions the registration conditions, one is to obtain the B-level coach certificate for one year to register, if the B-level certificate qualification is more than 3 years, it is necessary to participate in the B-level coaches to continue training and pass the examination before registration; the second is that the on-the-job coaches coaches coached in the Chinese Super League, China A, China B, women's Super League, women's first team, reserve team and echelons at all levels are given priority admission Third, coaches with excellent sports experience are given priority in admission.
On June 28, the Football Association announced the admission list of 24 people, most of whom are retired football celebrities, including a large number of former internationals such as Wang Peng, Li Weifeng, Han Peng, Zhou Haibin, Hu Zhaojun, Wang Qiang, Jiao Zhe, and former international footballers such as Pu Wei.
On October 29, the Chinese Football Association issued a notice of registration for the second training course, and as of now, the official website of the Football Association has not yet announced the admission list.
This year, there were only two training courses, and the first list did not include Lou Jiahui mentioned by Xu Liang, so it can be determined that he signed up for the second training course, but was not admitted. As for who the 24 people who were finally admitted, the Football Association has not yet announced, and the list is currently only known to a small range of people.
Now let's see whether Xu Liang's fall on the list is unfair or reasonable. The registration conditions for the two training courses are the same, the first of which is a hard indicator, and there is a B-level certificate to register, and those who do not have it certainly do not meet the conditions, which is nothing to worry about. The latter two are relatively elastic, and it is difficult to say whether it is more advantageous to only meet the second one, or whether it is more advantageous to only meet the third article.
Of course, both have an advantage, and only comparing between the second and third articles, there will not be a standard answer. Specific to Xu Liang, he is a former international footballer who meets the third criterion, but he is not an on-the-job coach, and he is not superior to those applicants who only meet the second and do not meet the third criterion.
As Xu Liang himself said, having coaching experience is not a mandatory rule, and more importantly, he has the experience of an excellent international footballer, which is an untenable reason.
On Xu Liang's terms, comparing the first list, it is normal not to be admitted. In the second list, there may be some students who do not have much popularity, but it cannot be determined that Xu Liang should be admitted more than them. The coaches who coach the echelon in the lower clubs are much more obscure. It cannot be said that they must be behind the former internationals.
Of course, the Chinese Football Association has been questioned because their admissions have not been transparent enough to let the outside world clearly understand what the conditions are for the students who stand out in the fierce competition of 9 out of 1. Xu Liang, as an insider, does not understand the situation, is very unconvinced, the public does not understand the situation, and there are more reasons to suspect that the Football Association has the suspicion of black box operation.
