A responsible, motivated, big-picture coach who has brought significant changes to the national team since he took over.
"First of all, we have added theory training to our set. Each training set will set aside a certain amount of time to take the video of the national team training, every game, even internal teaching matches to do theoretical training. Tell the players how they should treat each game in the future. The second big change is to cultivate the normal mentality of the players. The coach told the players that we definitely have the strength and determination. This determination is instilled in the players through theoretical training and on-field training, which I think is very important. The other thing is to strengthen the style of play and the quality of will, including inviting some psychologists to do psychological counseling.
"The training style and intensity (of the players) is different," said Chen Xuyuan."
Chen Xuyuan introduced the national team's coaching team, which includes specialized technicians, nutritionists, medical staff and intelligence analysts. "(Preparation) is not the head coach working alone, it's the entire Chinese

with the coaching staff.

Very team-oriented, he is absorbing the wisdom of the entire team and constantly enriching targeted technical and tactical drills. Why I say I have confidence in the Top 40, is based on these new changes, these changes to the team fighting strength is improved.

Criticized for "sacrificing the league for the national team".
"Why are we assembling five days early? It's not because of the fear of Guam and the Maldives team. This is due to the fact that since Li Tie took over the national team, (affected by the epidemic) six or seven training sessions did not have a national team (personnel) is neat. The coaching team many technical and tactical requirements, in the usual training has not been fully implemented. The main lineup must be further honed, not in the two games against Guam and the Maldives. If we follow the original plan to assemble on the 20th, the time left for the players is very limited." Chen Xuyuan explained.
Chen Xuyuan said that the early assembly is also hoping to let the national team players get a buffer time for adjustment. "If the team assembles immediately after the league is over, there are difficulties in terms of players' recuperation. Because the league has been closed for more than a month, and the next is closed for more than a month. The players' psychology and physiology will definitely be affected. Early assembly will allow players to go home for a few days to recuperate and then come back. Let the whole psychological and physiological situation of the players be more adapted to the next half-month (national team) matches. I hope we can understand it from this perspective."
In addition, Chen Xuyuan introduced China

There are still some fluctuations in the players' psychology, or some pressure." Chen Xuyuan said.
"That's when it occurred to me that the key is to get the players in the right frame of mind and we need to have confidence."
Chen Xuyuan recalled, "So at halftime, I told the girls to forget about the first half, don't think about anything else, think that we have the strength to beat them and we'll get it back in the second half. We must have a good mentality."
"I am especially thankful for the coaching staff including
