Once again, we witnessed the defeat of the national football team in the tournament, and this time the performance in the Asian Cup in Qatar disappointed everyone:Not a win, not a goal, as if sleepwalking. Such a result is undoubtedly chilling, not only because of the results, but also because we do not see hope and progress.
Faced with such a result, Coach Jankovic became the target of public criticism, and was finally decided to be dismissed by the Football Association. Although the change of coach seems to have become a norm, this change of coach shows us the deep-seated problems of the national football team and the Football Association. Jankovic has a performance assessment in his contractApparently, he did not live up to expectations。But will a change of coach really solve the problem?
The criteria for selecting a new coach are also quite puzzling, you must be familiar with Asian football, have an understanding of the Chinese Super League, and at the same time not be too demanding on the salary package. It's almost embarrassing, and it's hard to find the right person. If there were no salary restrictions, perhaps we could still expect big names like Queiroz or Scolari, but the reality isThey missed out on the national football team because of salary issues
Both Queiroz and Scolari are football heavyweights, and their experience and tactical vision are much needed by the national team. However, when the Football Association is unwilling to offer a reasonable salary, even the biggest teachers will choose to leave. This is not only disrespectful to the coach, but also irresponsible for the future of the national football team.
The Football Association once wanted to poach one of Xu Zhengyuan, Qiao Di, and Cui Kangxi from the Chinese Super League, but in the end they failed to do so. This situation reflects a kind of helplessness, and it is also the epitome of the long-term problems of the national football team. In the end, the possible choice is Ivankovic, a candidate who ticks all the boxes but is also a cause for concern. Whether it can lead the national football team out of the predicament is still unknown
The problem of the national football team is not only the coach, but also the entire football system and environment. A change of coach is like a change of knife, but if the fundamental problem is not solved, the future of the national football team is still a fog. The mood of the fans is understandable, every hope turns into disappointment, and every wait is in vain.
We love football and love football, but we want to see progress and hope rather than changing coaches and disappointment again and again. National football team, when will we stop "sleepwalking"? This is the question of all Chinese football fans, and it is also the call in the hearts of everyone who loves this sport. Hopefully, one day, we will be able to cheer for the victory of the national football team and applaud their progress. But before that day comes, we can only continue to support our national football team with deep helplessness and expectation.
