On October 20, in a roundtable interview organized by the Bundesliga, Bundesliga legend Shao Jiayi and the media began to exchange and share activities, the former international who had played in the World Cup qualifiers said: "The round of 12 is not simple, but I think the Chinese team still has hope. We're back at home and we have to take advantage of the home field. I also believe that our team and teammates can play a satisfactory football and hope to bring more happiness to the fans. ”
In the first four group matches of the round of 12, the national football team has a record of 1 win and 3 losses. Shao Jiayi said: "Although there are a few games that are not played very well, but on the whole, our team is still there, this strength is still there, and I also believe that head coach Li Tie can adjust the team." ”
Shao Jiayi, who played in the Bundesliga and Bundesliga for 9 years, encouraged Chinese players to "go out", "I think many of today's Chinese players are very powerful, like Wu Lei has now gone out, the first step is very important, and there are many players in the national team now who have such abilities." Of course, Liu Yang also needs patience, like Sun Xingyu, who has performed well in the past two years, in fact, he has played in the Bundesliga in Germany in 2008, 2009 and 2010, and he has also achieved today's achievements after more than ten years of tempering. Of course I would like more players to be able to go abroad, because only then can our players get a quick promotion. I believe that the future (foreign players) is also the biggest help for the Chinese national team. ”
For the new season of the Bundesliga, Shao Jiayi believes that the biggest improvement is some changes in techniques and tactics, "The Bundesliga teams are paying more and more attention to the use of tactics, even in the games of middle and lower teams like Cologne and Fürth, I can feel the changes brought by the coaches' clear tactical thinking to the team, and the old teams such as Freiburg are more abundant in the game than before, which is also a very important factor for the Bundesliga to become more attractive." In addition, Shao Jiayi said that the performance of some coaches also made him "bright", "such as Wolfsburg head coach Van Bommel, he came and won all three games." I think there will be a lot of good players transforming into coaches in the future, and I'm also looking forward to this aspect, and I want to learn about the changes that their good players can bring to the team after they transform into coaches. ”
Despite having been away from Germany for a long time, Shao Jiayi still misses German football culture very much, "I remember there is a statistic in Germany that 80% of Germans are direct or indirect football enthusiasts. I remember when I was playing in Germany, if I won the game, I would walk down the street with my head held high when I went out. If you lose, I'll be honestly at home the next day, because there must be fans on the street who are accusing you and scolding you, which is definitely not the same as China. In fact, the pressure on the players in the real five major leagues is also very large, which is why I especially hope that our fans can go out more, so that they can really experience the atmosphere of advanced football countries and feel the feeling of playing in that environment. I also hope that in the future, as our football performance and football population continue to increase, we will continue to improve our football performance, and I believe that we will also make a good improvement in this regard. ”
