National team head coaching change speculation
According to the latest news, the position of the head coach of our men's national team may be in for a change.
The end of the 12 tournament, the General Administration of Sport, the Chinese Football Association and even the national team have not issued any statement or opinion on the change of the head coach position, everything seems to have fallen into silence. However, this does not mean that things are over.
Recall Li Xiaopeng at the beginning of his appointment, the General Administration of Sport has high hopes for him, expect him to complete two tasks: First, lead the team to complete the final 12, when the national football team almost no hope of qualification, so there is no specific target, mainly hoping for a smooth transition, as far as possible, ideal performance, while ensuring that the national team does not have a problem; the second is to focus on the Asian Cup in 2023, as for the World Cup qualifying rounds in 2026, only as a preliminary consideration. But Li Xiaopeng also said that he hoped that the 12 strong subsequent four games as a test, in fact, for their own pressure.
At present, the attitude of the General Administration of Sport and the CFA is still unclear, but some sources say that Li Xiaopeng has a greater possibility to take the initiative to resign.
Objectively speaking, the situation of the national team at that time and Li Xiaopeng's hasty takeover, four games of the 12 strong match is difficult to be used as a basis for assessment. Although the national team itself did not appear to be a big problem, but the record is not ideal, a draw with Saudi Arabia is acceptable, but the loss to Vietnam triggered public concern.
There is plenty of time to change the head coach or not, and to choose a coach if it is decided to do so: the national team does not need to train from now until the end of the year, and the fixtures will become more intense when the league is postponed. the U23 national team actually assumes the role of the "second national team", especially as it can call up over-age players.
In fact, compared to whether to replace the head coach and the candidate after the replacement of the head coach, for the national team, more important is the mechanism. Take this 40 strong match and 12 strong match as an example, at first the "reserve head coach" is Cannavaro, but a China Cup of consecutive defeats, Cannavaro was eliminated. Subsequently invited back to the Lippi, but at the same time Chen Xuyuan also the same period of time, in the Lippi return to the issue of Chen Xuyuan's voice is not big, which appeared to cooperate with the level of embarrassment.
Li Tie (1977-), footballer
Is Chen Xuyuan "hand-picked" head coach, but after Li Tie dismissed, the General Administration of Sport took over the selection of the work, so once again the national team head coach is not the result of the selection of the Football Association. Decision-making power is not in the hands of the federation, the management is divided into two, the logistics basically by the federation is responsible for the management of the national team, the responsibilities and rights of the national team become unclear, it is also very easy to have problems.
In this case, whether Li Xiaopeng continue to coach, or choose a new head coach, all parties in fact should be in the management of the national team in terms of responsibility and rights to carry out a comprehensive communication, the only comprehensive communication, full understanding, to be able to manage the national team in a more clear and clear.
This mechanism should be considered is that the national football coaching, including other aspects of the CFA, there should be continuity, the role of professionals should be strengthened, not because of the relationship between the General Administration and the Association, as well as the Association's main leaders change and change, and in the past, "one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day. The phenomenon of "one leader, one official" was very common in the management of Chinese football in the past.
