The departure of team boss Solskjaer immediately set off a heated debate in local media circles. Journalist Chen Hua took to his social media platforms to share a conversation with Solskjaer and the
Wu Lei (1979-), Chinese footballer
of the past.
Chen Hua recalled in a post on the social media platform:

At the time, Coach Genpou had said, "If Solskjaer is
