The national football team, which is training in Hainan, opened to the media this afternoon, and Li Xiaopeng's remarks in an interview with the media can hardly be said to be "full of resentment."
Q
What is the current situation of naturalized players?
A
We have been in close contact with the naturalized players, and now the situation is not very optimistic, we previously arranged that they must go to Dubai before the 10th to participate in the national team test, now it is difficult to achieve, the next step is to try to choose the players who train better here.
The goal of the last two games?
The goal of the training is to put the next four sentences (a thousand hammers and a hundred hammers!) Lay the groundwork! Can fight a good battle! Excellent style! To strive for landing, we must first use players with more hardness and better psychological state to participate in the game.
Will the remaining two games give young players a chance or will it be about achieving results?
Now let's not talk about the results, who can fight who.
Li Tie, the previous manager of the national football team, was once criticized for his ability to control his emotions and his ability to speak publicly, and Li Xiaopeng was also praised as a manager with high emotional intelligence when he took over. But from today's remarks, either the practice of four naturalizations is really excessive and outrageous, or the position of the national football coach is easy to make people angry.
After arriving in Hainan, the national football team only played one warm-up match with Yatai. Looking at the situation of this warm-up match now, it may be possible to explain to a certain extent where Li Xiaopeng's harsh words to guide today come from.
On March 9, the warm-up match between the national football team and Changchun Yatai ended with a score of 1-1. The national team composed of elite players from various Chinese Super League teams has just drawn with a Chinese Super League club, which is already an unsatisfactory result. However, after the game, it was reported that Changchun Yatai did not send all the main players. Foreign aid did not return to the team, Tan Long was in the national team camp, and domestic players Zhongshi Xiaotian, Yang Chaosheng, Zhang Yu, Chen Bailiang, Wang Jie, etc. have all left the team.
That is to say, the national football team and the second team of the Chinese Super League are barely equal.
Of course, the national football team can find excuses, which has only gathered for a week, and the state has not returned to the best stage. However, judging from Li Xiaopeng's answer, he seems to have attributed the reason to the team lineup and psychological state.
The national football team recruited 5 naturalized players in this training camp, Jiang Guangtai, Axon, Luo Guofu, Fernando and Alain. Jiang Guangtai is already in Dubai, training with the physical coach of the national team. However, the other 4 naturalized players refused to arrive in Dubai before the 10th and undergo a fitness test for various reasons.
There is a possibility that the coaching staff of the national team originally took into account the uncertainties of naturalized players and proposed the physical fitness test. The naturalized players who have been in the battle for a long time have not been able to participate in the follow-up round of 12 matches due to their physical fitness standards, and the naturalized players can also be understood, and it can also be confirmed that the national team has high physical requirements, which can be said to be a practice that both sides have faces. However, the naturalized players suddenly refused the physical fitness test, and even did not come, so that the national football team was passive, and it was not completely disgraceful to let the naturalized players "lead the nose".
The outside world has doubts about the sense of belonging of the naturalized players, which is represented by Fernando. Previously, due to injuries, he had not been able to play, and had flown to the transit city when he was called up in the last period of national football, and returned to Brazil for family health reasons.
14 hours ago, Fernando updated the social platform: "God, I know that nothing is easy, but I believe in you. I believe everything is the best arrangement. Then, with a photo of himself wearing the training uniform of the Chinese men's national football team when he participated in the national football training camp. Although naturalized players, including Fernando, are frequently loyal on social platforms, it is still difficult to reassure everyone without the performance of the field and training.
The practice of naturalized players is outside the plan of the national football team, affecting the overall preparation plan of the national football team, Li Xiaopeng has some small words that are also reasonable, and he as a head coach should also convey his attitude to several naturalized players through the media. But beyond that, other statements really don't need to be over-interpreted. For example, the sentence "Now don't talk about achievements, who can fight who", is really a pragmatic sentence. The Chinese team in the round of 12 has no capital to talk about results, and "hard work" is not a necessary condition for the country to fight?
