When the national football coach Ivankovic took over the Chinese men's national football team, he made requests to the Football Association, one of which was not to use the Chinese coaching staff, but to use the coaching team he brought.
At that time, the Football Association did not directly agree, but said that the Chinese coaching staff is conducive to helping the new head coach get familiar with the Chinese football environment and players faster and more effectively, and also said that the existence of the Chinese coaching staff is only temporary, and the Chinese coaching staff will be disbanded when the work of the foreign coaching team is on the right track.
Now, the departure of Zheng Zhi, as the head of the Chinese coaching staff, also indicates that the mission of the Chinese coaching staff has been completed and should be disbanded soon, perhaps leaving only Shao Jiayi as the team leader. If this is the case, then the Football Association is doing the right thing, since it has hired foreign coaches, it is necessary to trust others unconditionally, boldly delegate power, hand over the work of game training and player selection to foreign coaches, and do a good job of logistics for the team.
With the departure of Zheng Zhi, Ivankovic also quickly started the player selection process, and he can finally select his favorite players according to his own ideas.
Li Titian, a player of the Zhejiang team of the Chinese Super League, is the first person newly recruited by Ivankovic to join the team.
Regarding Li Titian, every time the national team trains, the call for him to be selected for the national football team is very high, but the final selection is not much. This player has good skills at his feet, plays with his brain, has spirituality, and his shortcomings are that his body is slightly thin, his confrontation is poor, and he sometimes likes to stick to the ball, and he can often be seen in the middle and back of the field when the ball is broken, and then the opponent plays a counterattack. But when it comes to the frontcourt, Li Titian's accurate pass can still bring a lot of help to the attack.
I hope Ivankovic can fully observe the players, really select suitable players according to his own team building ideas, and build a men's national football team with characteristics and combat effectiveness!
