Changchun Yatai became the first team to change the coach of the Chinese Super League this season because of its poor start record. Chen Yang led the team to 1 win and 5 losses, fulfilled his commitment to take responsibility, and took the initiative to lead the coaching staff to resign. Soon Changchun Yatai Club officially announced that Xie Hui became the coach of the team, and Xie Hui returned to restart his coaching career in the Chinese Super League after experiencing a downturn last season. Changchun Yatai's strength on paper is okay, much better than last season's Dalian people, the midstream level is still there, if Xie Hui plays normally and there is no problem with relegation, it is very possible to bring it to the midstream at the end of the season.
In the case of foreign coaches playing better and more people this season, the living environment of local coaches has been further compressed. There are not many local coaches to choose from, world football is changing rapidly, and most local coaches have backward styles, making it difficult to keep up with the pace of mainstream football in the world. Xie Hui's style is more European, but his style of play is also a bit aggressive, which is a double-edged sword. But if relegation is the mainstay, then there are better options, such as Wu Jingui.
It is reported that Changchun Yatai also considered Wu Jingui before looking for Xie Hui, although the ability is decent, but Wu Jingui is a professional in firefighting and maintenance, which is more suitable for the current situation of Changchun Yatai. However, Wu Jingui was finally given up by Changchun Yatai because of his previous accusations of Teixeira playing match-fixing, and then chose Xie Hui. Wu Jingui said in public that his former players did not work hard and may even play match-fixing, which is irresponsible for both the player and the club. The club doesn't want to find a manager who is open-mouthed and bombards without evidence.
Xie Hui's words are actually very idealistic, and it is reported that when he was a teaching assistant in Shanghai Port, his salary was very high, fluctuating between 6 million and 8 million yuan per year. This annual salary is more than the annual salary of many Chinese Super League team managers, and the work of the harbor is quite stable, but Xie Hui gave up the position of assistant coach with an annual salary of 6 million in order to become the head coach, and instead chose the position of coach of Nantong Zhiyun with an annual salary of 2 million. This incident shows that Xie Hui still has ideals and ambitions, and this time he came to Changchun Yatai to coach, and his annual salary will most likely not be higher than that of the harbor period, or even the same.
Xie Hui's coaching style is more aggressive, fighting for aggressive attacks without dragging the mud, such a tactic will be better at least in terms of ornamentation, but there will also be more mistakes, which in turn will lead to a threat to the defensive line. Therefore, he led Changchun Yatai, which is nothing more than two situations, playing a highly ornamental game, steadily improving the results, and there is also a possibility that Dalian collapsed last season. Changchun Yatai players need to adapt to Xie Hui for a period of time, and it is estimated that there will be a period of pain.
