Yesterday, Chinese football officially announced the list of Li Xiaopeng's national football team phase 1, that is, the 2022 national football team phase 1 training list. The national football team has recruited a record 52 players and 15 assistant coaches in this training camp. This is placed in any corner of the world football, it is a super training team that has never been seen before, and I am afraid that it is also a super training team that has never come after. However, according to reporters, this is not the initial list, and the initial list is far more than 52 people.
Faced with such a super roster, some fans question the significance of its existence? Is it to make history, or to create jokes. As a fan, it is understandable that Li Xiaopeng has recruited so many players and assistant coaches at the same time. Because, in doing so, Li Xiaopeng's guidance can not only prevent the occurrence of the "Li Tie Incident" in advance, but also solve the serious problems faced by the national football team under the epidemic situation.
Let's first talk about the serious problems faced by the national football team under the epidemic. We all know that no matter which country's national football team will find several teams that are close to the style and strength of the opponent to warm up before the competition. Previously, when Li Tie was coaching the national football team, he complained many times that the lack of high-level warm-up matches was one of the reasons for the poor performance of the national football team. Regarding this point of view of Li Tie's coaching, I believe that as long as it is a fan who likes football, it can understand and agree. Nowadays, Li Xiaopeng's guidance to take over the whip of the national football team also needs to face such a problem.
Let's first look at the first opponent of the national football team in 2022, Japan, didn't we also set a warm-up match with Uzbekistan early? The Japanese team just wanted to find the best form through the warm-up match against Uzbekistan, and then on January 27, when facing the national football team, they could all score 3 points. However, man is not as good as heaven. Early this morning we received good news that Japan has refused entry to Uzbekistan players due to the global pandemic. As a result, the Warm-up match of the Japanese team was lost.
Looking back at the 52-person roster directed by Li Xiaopeng, you will find that it is really a skilled person. According to media and journalist reports, the 52 internationals will be divided into 2-3 groups, so that the national football training team will become 2-3 teams. You can then play an internal warm-up. In other words, what is the difference between the internal warm-up of the national football team and the warm-up of the same Chinese Super League team? Fans familiar with the national football team know that every time they warm up with the Chinese Super League team, the national football team can always win 2-3 goals. However, this is not that the national football team is really strong, but that people are sophisticated.
Nowadays, the national football team is warming up internally, and there is a competitive relationship between players. Players who perform well will naturally follow Li Xiaopeng's guidance to Japan and Vietnam to compete in the World Preliminary Round of 12, while those who perform badly will bear the reputation of being eliminated by the national football team. Therefore, the warm-up within the national football team is generally considered to be much higher than the warm-up quality with the Chinese Super League team. This is also a way out of the way, so I say that Li Xiaopeng's guidance skills are superior, and the problems encountered by the Japanese team and Li Tie's guidance will be solved.
After talking about the topic of warm-up, let's talk about another "hidden" function of the 52-person roster, that is, to avoid the "Li Tie incident" from happening again. We all know that the source of the "Li Tie incident" is the poor performance of the national football team, and the fans think that Li Tie's guidance is nepotism, and finally broke out in the cargo. Of these 3 factors, the most fatal is to carry goods, but the source is poor performance and cronyism. Poor results are really difficult for the head coach of the national football team to influence, and nepotism can be avoided.
This time, Li Xiaopeng guided the recruitment of 52 players into the national football training team, and it can be said that almost all the players who can hang on to the national football team have been recruited. Then, several local coaches who were favored by the fans were called in to help. It's these players, it's these coaches, who perform well and leave behind. Fans, the media, and the managers of various Chinese Super League clubs can all witness it with their own eyes. In this way, it is like giving everyone a preventive shot. The quality of the players is recognized by everyone, and in the end, they will bear a limited level of infamy at most, and will not be dug into the ground like Li Tie's guidance.
