"The Wordsmiths, under the careful guidance of Xie Hui, have improved significantly and are a different team from last year. Throughout the tournament, we were caught in a passive position and the other team had the absolute advantage."

The duel with Xie Hui is not only a battle between master and disciple, but also a collision between two Shanghai coaches, and also a battle between two very different technical and tactical styles in the Chinese Super League this season.

The tactic is a very oppressive defense with quick transitions to find the opponent's cracks, which the fans call "ready to go".
Xie Hui, on the other hand, put forward the classic "strong pressure strategy" - he emphasized the high position pressing, and put pressure on the opponents with aggressive scrambling.
Currently, Shenhua is ranked third in the league, which is as high as the team can reach. And Dalian people do not need to worry about relegation for the time being, the points are 5-6 points above the relegation zone, as long as they maintain a stable scoring rhythm, relegation will also be a probable event.

Young coaches need to seize the opportunity

Having passed his 61st birthday, the young manager, who took over as Shenhua's head coach in his early 40s, has now become an old manager.
"I always tell Xie Hui, now is the stage for you to show your talent, take this opportunity to give more opportunities to Chinese coaches, who are working very hard."

He has assisted nearly 10 foreign managers, and worked with many foreign managers during his tenure as the club's technical director. He has become the representative of Chinese soccer's local managers in the last 20 years, and has repeatedly expressed his views on the dispute between local and foreigners.
After this game he said, "Seeing that the national soccer team is in a low period, it's an opportunity for Chinese coaches, and I hope that young coaches don't give up and work hard. I know Xie Hui works very hard and his understanding of soccer is extraordinary."
Xie Hui, who lost the game, looked a bit upset, "Overall, after scoring the goal, we didn't know how to continue the offense, this is not the first time, there have been five or six games with similar situations. It's clear that the level is still too high for some players, it's all about some low level mistakes."
"It's impossible to summarize mistakes like this and a lot of the effort on the field was offset by these cheap mistakes. We have so many problems in our back line and still need to improve through training."

In comparison, Xie Hui, who was born in February 1975, is not that young.
However, many fans and media still refer to him as a junior manager - perhaps more because of his experience in the field. Xie Hui's managerial career has only just begun, with less than three seasons under his belt, since he left Seaport in 2020 to fly solo and coach Nantong Zhiyun.
After coaching Nantong Zhiyun for one and a half seasons, he was dismissed because of the allusion to "pressing on"; in the 2021 season, he successfully applied for the job of Dalian Ren, originally thinking that he would just lead the team to play in the Central League, but he didn't expect Dalian Ren to get the qualification for the Chinese Super League by hand, and Xie Hui ushered in his first Chinese Super League season as the head coach.
In fact, there are many local managers born around 1975 in the league this season, all of whom were famous players in the early days of professionalization in A-A.
Qi Wusheng and Horton of the two sessions of the National Olympic team of the current players, Hao Wei coaching Taishan, Li Jinyu team Wuhan Yangtze River, Zhang Xiurui at the helm of Shenzhen, Li Wei Feng fire Guangzhou City, Zheng Zhi is currently the only one after 80 skipper.
Of course, born in August 1980, he does not yet have the professional-level coaching credentials required to coach in the top flight and can only be considered a substitute to gain experience.
Hao Wei has already led Taishan to the Super League title last year.
Compared to Korea, we still have a gap
However, compared to the same group of Korean managers, Xie Hui and Li Wei Feng have come to the professional manager late.
Born in 1973, Choi Yong-soo began coaching Seoul FC back in 2011, leading the team to the K-League title the following year and the AFC Champions League final in 2013.
Hong, who is the same age as Pham, already led the South Korean U20 national team to the top eight of the World Youth Championship in 2009.
A much more ideal timeframe would be to be coaching top league and national teams at around 40 and getting results.
In the A-A era, the academy's Zhou Sui'an also served as Guangzhou's head coach in his 30s, and in the Chinese Super League (CSL), Hao Wei, who is less than 33 years old, hung on to coach Changsha Jinde at the end of 2009, becoming the youngest head coach in the CSL.
In the same year, the 36-year-old Zhu Jiong managed to lead Nanchang to promotion and he was given the opportunity to coach in the top flight.
However, with the arrival of the Chinese Super League's golden dollar era, foreign managers have become a more mainstream choice, and the survival space for local managers is getting smaller and smaller ......
But like players, skippers also need more games to gain experience, and getting up to speed on coaching as soon as conditions allow will help improve their personal abilities.
And after the end of the golden dollar era, more and more clubs began to choose local managers, the proportion of local and foreign tends to be balanced. Then, whether the Chinese Super League can cultivate the leader of local managers in the future will be a huge question mark. (Surfing news reporter Song Chengliang)
