In the dazzling Asian Cup, the absence of the Chinese national football team was like a lost star, which made countless fans sigh. Once upon a time, the national football team was soaring on the green field in Asia, but now it has been reduced to a marginal spectator, what kind of gap is this, when a new army like Tajikistan can make history, our football road seems to have entered the fog.
The cruelty of reality has forced the entire national football team to withdraw to the country and disband on the spot, which is not only the banishment of the players, but also a huge irony of the entire national football management. The bell for Jankovic's dismissal has been ringing, and the Football Association's plan to change the manager is in full swing. At this moment, the eyes of China and abroad are closely watching this change.
It's not just a football loss, it's more like the finale of a drama. The eyes of the fans are full of unwillingness and confusion, and the discussion in the circle of friends on the field of play is even more enthusiastic. Everyone who loves football is asking: where should our national football team go? Jankovic's farewell is as if an unfinished movie suddenly lost power, and the audience has not yet come to their senses, and the protagonist has left the scene gloomily. This sudden vacancy is like an answer sheet to be filled, which has triggered countless speculations and expectations.
It is reported that the Chinese Football Association is planning to start a new round of national team coach selection around the Spring Festival. This time, the sight of the coach seems to be more inclined to overseas, and the name of the foreign coach frequently appears on the shortlist. But among the many foreign coaches, is there really a holy hand who understands the context of Chinese football and can immediately integrate into and save the declining trend? This is an unknown full of variables.
At this critical moment, Gao Hongbo, who has coached the national football team twice and led the team to miraculously advance in times of crisis, has once again become the focus of public opinion. His deep understanding of Chinese football, as well as his previous experience in the national football team, makes people wonder if the local coach will "be in danger" when the national football team needs it most.
Speaking of Gao Hongbo, he undoubtedly left a strong mark in the history of Chinese football. He once coached the national football team at the critical moment of the World Preliminaries, and with his excellent scheduling and tactical arrangement, the Chinese team entered the top 12 again after many years. Although after the first four rounds, he was sacked due to poor results, but this did not weaken the fans' trust in him.
In domestic football, Gao Hongbo's name has always been accompanied by respect and expectation. From his annual salary to his coaching philosophy, from his past achievements to his familiarity with Chinese football, he seems to meet the requirements of a good local coach in every way. On social media, former international player Fan Zhiyi's remarks made the fans even more emotional, and his support for Gao Hongbo and his outspokenness to the Football Association undoubtedly added a bit of aura to the local coach.
Until recently, former international player Yang Xu sat in front of the camera with media heavyweight Zhao Yu and seasoned commentator Liu Jianhong discussing the intricacies of selecting a coach like a football version of Game of Thrones. As soon as the show opened, Zhao Yu threw out a shock bomb: "The new coach of the national football team tends to coaches who have achieved certain results in Asia, and they are currently locked in Queiroz, Sanchez, and Ivankovic." ”
The list of foreign coaches is full of shining stars in the Asian arena, and their records and experience are like football pyramids. However, the styles of these three coaches are very different, and who can become the helmsman of the national football team has become a question in everyone's mind.
In this case, whether the national football team should still give local coaches a chance, although Zhao Yu's news is clear, no one can predict the changes in the football world. What the national football team needs is a leader who can stabilize the morale of the military and lead the coquettish. Domestic coaches understand the national conditions, the psychology of players and the domestic league environment, which are difficult for foreign coaches to quickly develop. But it seems that the balance of the Football Association has shifted in favour of more expensive and internationally renowned foreign coaches.
It's no secret that fans expect Gao Hongbo, and the support for him on social media is louder than waves. The affirmation of the former international, combined with the cries of the fans, seems to make up a strong solidarity team. But behind this, the attitude of the Football Association is still confusing, and it is still unknown whether Gao Hongbo will be able to take on this important role again.
When it comes to Gao Hongbo, it can always evoke fans' memories of the glorious moments of the past. His football philosophy is like an old book, and every time he opens it, there is always a new revelation. Every appearance of his national football team is accompanied by anticipation and hope. Even in the midst of ups and downs, he can bring a trace of stability to people.
The discussion among fans on social media is as hot as a national derby, with Gao's name echoing around every corner. What they use to type out on the keyboard is not only the support for a coach, but also the vision for the future of the national football team. But whether it can really go to the climax according to the fans' script, it is still up to the Football Association to reveal this suspense.
In Gao Hongbo's discussions with foreign coaches, the choice of the Football Association seems to have become two ends of the scale. The emotional inclinations of the fans collide with the realistic needs of football in this choice. Everyone has a "football bible" in their hearts, but which prophet can lead the national football team out of the desert is an unknown worth looking forward to.
