The new coach of the national football team is non-stop, delineates responsibilities with the Football Association, and works with Zheng Zhi to reshape!
Four helpers please! Is this to embarrass the Football Association? Or will he work with Zheng Zhi?
Chinese football sometimes does badly, largely because of the large number of people! There is an old Chinese saying: If there are more people, the home will collapse! For example, when a football association hires a foreign coach, it often has a strong team of Chinese assistant coaches. As a result, the cost of communication between the two sides will be greatly increased, and there may even be disagreements, leaving players with an embarrassing situation where they do not know which side to listen to. For example, when Jankovic was in the national team, Zheng Zhi held a tactical board and talked about tactics to the players in the World Cup, leaving Jankovic aside.
However, to the surprise of fans, the new coach Ivankovic surprised the Football Association as soon as he took office, which means that Chinese football clubs are likely to dissociate themselves from the coaches. Especially an assistant coach like Zheng Zhi, I'm afraid that at that time, he will be an assistant coach for the national team.
The new national football coach will work with Zheng Zhi and the Chinese assistant coaches to develop a concrete work plan.
According to reporter Ma Dexing, Ivankovic agreed to all the conditions proposed by the Chinese Football Association, including leading the Chinese national team to 18 rounds, continuing to maintain the Chinese assistant coach team, and so on. Ivankovich himself put forward the same conditions.
When Ivankovic was in the national team, he had to have a group of assistant coaches. It is reported that when Ivankovic was in charge of Oman, there were a total of 6 assistant coaches, including physical coaches, psychologists, goalkeeper coaches and so on. This time, Ivankovic only picked four assistant coaches, and these four assistant coaches are the most critical.
Ivankovic is also apprehensive while leading his four assistant coaches to manage Chinese football. Many fans felt that he probably didn't want too many Chinese players to join his coaching roster. He used to be the coach of the Taishan team of the Chinese Super League, and he is all too familiar with the characteristics and atmosphere of Chinese football.
If the Chinese assistant coaches were to adopt the same approach as the national team coaches in terms of tactical arrangements, personnel selection, physical training, etc., then their role would be greatly reduced.
Zheng Zhi is currently the strongest assistant coach in China. Given Zheng Zhi's offside behaviour in the Asian Cup, Ivankovic can fully focus on Zheng Zhi and the rest of the team to let them know which are the assistant coaches of the Chinese national team and which should not be done. If this is not the case, there is a good chance that Ivankovic will repeat the mistakes of Jankovic.
