Recently, all kinds of news about Chinese soccer keep coming. As fans, we are both happy and sad. We are happy that Chinese soccer has finally won those black sheep. Sadly, Chinese soccer has entered another unsolvable cycle. Once upon a time, when the Southern Leader and Leader Xie won, fans naively thought that Chinese soccer would usher in a spring, unfortunately, fans still feel too naive. When the programmers won, fans realized that Chinese soccer was back to square one. The arrest of Chen leader of the CFA caused a shock in Asian soccer. Japanese and Korean media and even Vietnamese media spared no effort to ridicule Chinese soccer.
Before the Japanese and Korean media satirized Chinese soccer, we really had nothing to say, after all, people are really strong, but now even the Vietnamese media can satirize us and see how much we stink, just stink. In the past, no matter how unbearable the national soccer team was, facing Vietnam, we could still easily sweep, with the rapid development of Vietnamese soccer, their level is the same as ours, Li Tie national soccer preliminaries, the national soccer team lost to Vietnam, and we still have naturalized players, showing that not only have we not developed in recent years, but we are still retreating.
In the early stages of the decision to go down the naturalization route, fans had high hopes for the national soccer team because success was a template in their eyes. Guangzhou Evergrande could kill it in Asia with their domestic fans as a team, supplemented by a couple of former foreigners. If the national soccer team naturalized a few powerful foreigners, they could compete with the men's soccer teams of Japan and South Korea. The ideal is very rich, but the reality is very bony, under the leadership of Chen leader and Li Tie, the most powerful national soccer team in paper history has created dazzling results. From now on, such results are not caused by power, but more likely due to money.
The old saying, "A gentleman loves money and takes what he can get" really suits Lippi, why? Because he could leave hundreds of millions of people and voluntarily resign from his position as the head coach of Chinese men's soccer. Lippi publicly said, "My annual salary is very high, but I don't want to rob money." If a man can make such a decision, he must be very angry. With the failure of Li Tie and the programmers, Lippi once again mentioned Chinese soccer in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport Rome. Lippi believes that the 2022 World Cup in Qatar is the best chance for Chinese soccer to influence the World Cup because there are several strong naturalized players in the league. As for his resignation, the main reason is that his job is not going well.
When Lippi learned that Li Tie and the programmer were arrested, Lippi was a bit excited. He said he has a deep affection for Chinese soccer and the fans are very passionate. Speaking about his coaching of the Chinese men's soccer team, he said, "There are always people interfering with his work, especially when it comes to candidates and who to put on the field. If I don't believe in me, why was I invited? This is what I can't figure out." As we all know, Chinese soccer's naturalization policy is a product of the Cai era. Before the programmer became the top leader of the CFA, he was strongly against naturalization. After entering the CFA, although the programmer became ambiguous in dealing with the naturalization issue, he said, "What's the point of Evergrande winning so many titles? Chinese soccer still can't go up." More or less, one can smell his contempt for naturalization. Conversely, the head coach of the FA leadership also interferes with the selection and employment of head coaches. With such a top boss, Lippi had a difficult job at the time. At that time, Lippi voluntarily resigned and many fans criticized Lippi for not having the ability to resist pressure. It seems we really misjudged Lippi.
