Now it seems that since the FA has staged a succession of shocking "god operation" in recent years, as long as the FA has any action, it seems to have been unable to stir up the waves in my heart. However, the recent introduction of a hilarious resolution, but still let me and other fans jaw-dropping, shaking his head more than.
The Football Association recently announced a mind-boggling decision: the postponement of the match between Guangzhou Evergrande and Beijing Guoan in the fifth round of the Chinese Super League. The reason, surprisingly, is that the vast majority of the national team's current members are from these two clubs, and with the upcoming World Cup match between China and Guam, the FA had to postpone the matchup between these two clubs in order to protect the national players.
First of all, this is simply amateurish on the part of the FA. In the five major European leagues, there has never been a precedent of postponing a match due to too many international players of a certain powerhouse. Such an approach is undoubtedly to regard the Chinese Super League as an appendage of the national team. From a professional point of view, the professional league does not have the responsibility to sacrifice for the national team, not to mention the responsibility to train young players for the national team.
Secondly, this move by the FA undermines the fairness of the league. If they want to postpone the game, why don't they postpone the games of all the other teams? This round of the national team not only has players from Evergrande and Guoan, but also Shenhua, Shanghai Hong Kong and Shandong. It is reported that not only are these teams not postponed for this round, the players selected for the national team are not allowed to play in this round of the Chinese Super League, in order to prevent them from getting injured. Such a practice has caused a serious impact on the fairness of the league.
Furthermore, the first two opponents in this round of WC are Guam and Maldives, two teams whose players are mostly non-professionals, and we've often been able to dunk a dozen or so goals on them easily in past matches. Is it necessary for the FA to get so worked up? Not to mention that we are still playing at home. In fact, from Lippi's angry resignation and the FA's choice of Li Tie, the rookie coach of the national team, it is enough to show that the FA does not have any expectations for the national football team to enter the 12-team World Qualifying Tournament. Li Tie hangs out, the FA first to find a good backer, the two hit it off, just like that! But if you lose to Guam and the Maldives, the consequences and pressure can not be borne by anyone, so the Association is like a big enemy!
Taking a step back, according to the FA's current standards, if we get into the Top 12, then shouldn't the Super League be suspended? Or in order to protect the national players, the FA might as well introduce a new resolution: all other players in the Chinese Super League are forbidden to foul the national players! Haha
