Due to the poor record of the top 12 matches, the attitude of domestic public opinion towards naturalized players has begun to show a negative trend, which of course can not be blamed on some media and fans, after all, this policy has been controversial from the beginning, and after not achieving the desired effect, people certainly have reason to criticize and be dissatisfied. Recently, however, there have been a few things that may have led to a certain change in attitude towards naturalization, starting with Axon retaining his Chinese citizenship after returning to Brazil to play, then Luo Guofu taking similar actions, and former national football coach Lippi again claiming in a recent interview that he thinks naturalization is important to the Chinese team.
Lo Joined Mineiro Americas on his return to Brazil, and it is worth mentioning that his jersey name is Luo GF, which is the abbreviation of his Chinese name Lo Guofu. Talking about his Chinese team prospects, Luo Guofu said that if he is called up by the Chinese team next, then he will have a good discussion with the coaching staff and board members around him. In addition, he also said that he liked the nickname given to him by Chinese fans, and he also liked the meaning of Luo GF on his jersey.
In addition, Lippi also talked about his views on the naturalization policy of the national football team. The former national football coach pointed out that for the Chinese national team, the naturalization policy is very important and will certainly play a very important role in the future, but it is necessary to be patient, which is very important.
Lippi's words may be correct, in fact, the reason why the national football team adopted the policy of naturalization was largely because he urged the Football Association to carry out such a work direction. Therefore, to this day, he still believes that naturalization will greatly help the Chinese team, which is also a normal idea. When Chinese fans are almost desperate, the practices of Axon and Luo Guofu may also make many Chinese fans feel a little warm.
But should we affirm the policy of naturalization in this regard? The answer, of course, is no. The thing to see is that Axon and Luo Guofu are still the best attitude and professionalism among the original naturalized players, and the attitude of their 2 does not represent others. Alain's attitude on the field is also good, but compared to these players, Fernando, who did not play a game, and Gaulat, who is now in a hurry to regain his Brazilian citizenship, his approach is chilling. This means that among the multiple players who are naturalized at the same time, there must be some players whose views are not at all as positive as these 2 people think.
In addition, Lippi's view is also correct, but his perspective is purely based on the opinion and attitude of a coach, he can only care about the team's performance, but other aspects he has no reason to consider. As for the policy of naturalization, because from the beginning it was not simply who entered the national team, but there were too many other meanings involved behind it, so Lippi's view was only from the simplest football perspective, and did not take other aspects into account.
Therefore, no matter how correct the recent approach of Axon and Luo Guofu is, no matter how the views of the authorities seem to be fine, the thing we must see is that the naturalization policy has not brought us the actual improvement of achievements, and there are many troubles on the sidelines, so the FA should decisively abandon this bad policy in the future, pay attention to the foundation, and vigorously develop the young growth of local players.
