However, Zhou Xin's ability to lead Qingdao West Coast to complete the task of relegation from the Chinese Super League remains an uncertainty. Zhou Xin has no successful experience in relegation, and his only advantage is that he is familiar with the team and can get up to speed quickly. Some Qingdao West Coast fans believe that if the club wants to survive relegation this season, it would be better to hire Wu Jingui to coach the team. Wu Jingui has rich relegation experience in the Chinese Super League, and has certain human resources. He has coached Qingdao Yellow Sea, and with his pragmatic tactics, the team was relegated ahead of schedule.
Fans of Qingdao West Coast have always been confident in Wu Jingui's coaching ability, but Qingdao West Coast clubs don't quite agree with his ability. Especially after Wu Jingui resigned as Shenhua's manager this season, the relationship with his old bosses became very tense. He openly criticized Shenhua's core player, Teixeira, for his poor performance last season and even alluded to match-fixing. This made Wu Jingui the center of public opinion and made Qingdao West Coast finally give up the idea of inviting him to coach. The fact that Qingdao West Coast chose to entrust Zhou Xin with this important task shows that the local coach has unique advantages. It is hoped that after Zhou Xin takes over the reins of Qingdao West Coast, he will be able to lead the team to successfully accomplish the goal of relegation in the fiercely competitive Chinese Super League and live up to the club's trust.
