According to beiqing sports, Zheng Zhi, Li Jinyu, Shao Jiayi, Li Leilei, Sun Xiang and Zhao Junzhe are among the six former international footballers who have joined the new national football coaching team. An unprecedentedly large coaching team will work together to help the national football team participate in the final four rounds of preparation and competition of the top 12.
As soon as the news came out, it received widespread attention from fans. But then football reporter Zhao Zhen pointed out that the coaching staff built this time has 3 insiders, and the real situation is different from what fans think.
First, why build such a large and luxurious coaching team?
As we all know, the Chinese team will go to Japan and Vietnam on January 27 and February 1 to participate in the next stage of the round of 12, and on January 10, the national football team will also conduct a new training camp in Shanghai.
The number of players in the national football team is as high as 40 or more, and this list includes the newly added coaching team, which was actually determined on December 15.
Because as early as December 15, the AFC had already asked the teams participating in the round of 12 to turn in the list.
And these more than 40 internationals will be divided into at least 2-3 groups during the training, and this order of magnitude training is bound to have a large number of assistant coaches involved in the auxiliary, which is why so many former internationals have joined the coaching team.
The news was not reported on December 15 in order to ensure the normal progress of the already fragmented Chinese Super League.
Second, the new assistant coaches are temporary in nature and have not signed a formal contract
In addition to Li Xiaopeng, the newly promoted assistant coaches of the coaching staff are all temporary, and the purpose of their joining is only to cope with the training camps and the top 12 competitions in January and February.
Neither of them has signed a formal contract with the FA and will not sign it in the future. Unsurprisingly, the team will disband after February.
Because the final stage of the round of 12, especially the first two games, is very important for Li Xiaopeng, if the results against Japan are not good, if the results against Vietnam on the first day of the New Year are not good, Li Xiaopeng's own coaching position may not be guaranteed.
And these former internationals have served in the original Football Association, clubs, youth teams, and will have to go back in the future, in this case, how can it be possible to officially sign a contract with this team?
Third, the General Administration of Sport fully escorted the next two round of 12 matches
The recruited team is divided into three parts, including the management team, the scientific research team and the support team.
In addition to the many former internationals recruited this time, the management team also includes Gao Hongbo, vice chairman of the Football Association, and Li Xiaopeng's original assistant.
In addition to the management department, the scientific research team and the support team are mainly responsible for the team of Beijing Sport University.
This big list can be described as a collection of national strength to escort the next two top 12 matches, which shows the importance attached by the General Administration of Sports.
After all, the poor performance of the national football team some time ago and the Li Tie incident seriously damaged the image of Chinese football, and the top 12 matches that began at the end of the Spring Festival will be paid attention to by all of China, and the General Administration of Sport will naturally attach great importance to it.
