At present, Chinese soccer has become a pot of porridge. For the first time, the current head of the Football Association, Chen Xuyuan, did not show up at the championship winning ceremony in Wuhan Sanzhen. He is said to be planning to resign on his own accord, while Sun Wen, the vice-chairman of the FA, has become a popular candidate. In particular, Sun Wen's strong support for Shui Qingxia as the head coach of the Chinese women's soccer team to win the Asian Cup has made her the Chosen One in the public's mind.
However, Sun Wen herself doesn't seem to be a fan of taking over the FA. She posted via her circle of friends a skeptical refusal to take over the FA. The full text is below:
Recently, there is a feeling: look at heaven and earth to know that you are small, look at the world to know that you are shallow. The person who plays soccer may not teach soccer, the person who teaches soccer may not participate in the game, the person who spreads the word may not finance, the person who finances may not understand management, and the person who manages may not understand leadership.
Generalizations, cognitive errors, the public blind feeling blind worrying, we are anxious. Diversification of the profession, belonging to the profession belongs to what kind of profession. Respect for the profession is to be loyal to their duties, resting in their place, read more and learn more.
In my opinion, Sun Wen's apparent statement that she specializes in technology is actually an expression of her resistance to taking over the Football Association. "People who play soccer may not teach the game, and people who teach the game may not participate in the game ......" Obviously, she stated that she is not a full-timer, and that she can't save Chinese soccer. Think of the fans at the beginning of the media used to shout that Chinese table tennis is so successful, with the management of the national table tennis to save the national soccer team, but really put Cai Zhenhua in charge of the Football Association, the media, the fans from the beginning of his term of office, scolded him to resign. China's men's football deep water king more, who now understand that ten or twenty years can not save the men's football, never willing to sit on this powder keg.
On the other hand, Sun Moon also said that the national soccer team is a systemic meltdown with an overall lack of talent that needs to be pushed back and started over. Her words touched on youth training, leagues, marketing and other aspects. Chen Xuyuan is completely down and useless in Chinese soccer. If she wants to pull Chinese soccer out of a big hole, she is too weak on her own. According to media reports, the soccer association has actually backed a huge team of over 1,450 people. The interests of so many people depend on soccer, who is difficult to reform. Sun Wen doesn't want to take over, surely she understands the difficulties better than the average fan, and it's understandable that such a hot potato doesn't want to take over.
On the other hand, the head of the national team is negotiating with Stojkovic for coaching. According to reports, he may start coming to China in mid-January. Stojkovic is familiar with Chinese soccer and has led the team with pretty good results, but now everyone understands that it's useless for anyone in the national soccer team to be the head coach, even if Luo Jinxian comes. The fact that Lippi voluntarily resigned with such a high salary is enough to prove how bad the level of the national soccer team is. The current players have no potential to be tapped at all. Spending money on foreign coaches is purely a blind man's light for the FA - a waste of money.
Domestic coaches are even more unreliable, and Li is now expected to be very keen to stay away from the national soccer team. Whoever leads the national soccer team is chastised and earns a grueling amount of money is chastised. The only way to turn the men's soccer team around now is to rely on youth training, but no one in the current environment is engaged in youth training. I can only hope that the next president of the soccer association will be stronger and dare to break the mold and pay close attention to youth training and the national soccer team can retain a little fire.
