In order to prepare for the last two matches of the top 12 matches, the national football team has begun training in Haikou. It is reported that Li Xiaopeng was very strict about the training of international footballers during this time, and some international footballers have complained about Li Xiaopeng's high-intensity training. Even, some international footballers complained that the weather in Haikou was too hot, and they would sweat when they moved during training.
All the domestic players have arrived and are all conducting high-intensity training in Haikou. However, the Brazilian naturalized players are still in Brazil and have not chosen to return to the country for training and preparation.
In the previous two games against Japan and Vietnam, the naturalized players were in a clearly poor state. Axon and Fernando did not return for various reasons, and Alain and Luo Guofu did not help the national football team much after they returned. So that the national football team lost to Japan and then lost to Vietnam, directly tearing the last fig leaf of the team.
Moreover, Fernando's temporary decision not to come, and the decision to return to Brazil was indeed speechless to the FA. This time, the FOOTBALL Association is ready to carry out a higher review of naturalized players, and can no longer have the embarrassing situation of the last time.
Before adding, Li Tie has been emphasizing the problem of Lack of physical fitness in Luo Guofu, so the Football Association has begun to find physical experts to assess naturalized players.
According to the news of Beijing Youth Daily, the Football Association has specially hired some foreign physical coaches to conduct physical tests on naturalized players, and only when the indicators meet the requirements will they be finally recruited by the national team.
There are also internal leaders of the Football Association who say: Players who represent the national football team in the World Preliminary Round must fight. If you fight the game, you must have physical and mental protection, otherwise, you can't recruit.
This view has been able to reflect that the FA is not satisfied with the performance of naturalized players in the past. But then again, the Football Association is also helpless this time, if you do not assess the naturalized players, forcing them to train at home, reserve physical fitness, then they are likely to have nothing to do and will not prepare for the game.
Previous reports have exposed that players like Fernando, Lo Guofu and others are on vacation at home. In particular, Luo Guofu, the latest news is to support the dream of female stars in Brazil and hold concerts. If domestic players also learn from Luo Guofu and support female stars at every turn, I am afraid that they will be killed by fans.
As a fan of the national football team, there is nothing wrong with supporting naturalized players, but looking at the age of several naturalized players, they really need to improve their physical fitness.
32-year-old Axon, 32-year-old Alain, 33-year-old Lo Guofu and 28-year-old Fernando have reached the end of their professional careers. Moreover, Brazilian players are in a very serious stage of decline in competitive status after the age of 30, and if they are not given physical training, there will be an embarrassing situation of not being able to run.
To sum up, the Football Association hired experts to assess the physical fitness of naturalized players this time, which is also a helpless move. Without physical reserves, even naturalized players can hardly play well on the field. However, the belief in naturalized players is undoubtedly a psychological shadow for the players, which may lead to naturalized players choosing to refuse to represent the national football team.
