In the field of selecting soccer coaches, the Chinese soccer world has long shown a fierce competition between foreign coaches and local coaches, a situation that has lasted for decades. When foreign coaches fail to perform, they are often replaced by local coaches and vice versa. Recently, the team coached by Sung Yiu Tung has not performed well, which has led to a change in the leadership of the FA. According to analysts, the federation is likely to hire a foreign coach to revitalize the team's morale, rather than continuing to use a local coach. They know in their heart of hearts that domestic coaches are relatively lacking in level, and apart from the ability to follow directions and take responsibility, they don't seem to have much more to offer.
Sports commentator Huang Qiang once said that the future of Chinese soccer depends on the young generation, but although Cheng Yaodong has been in charge of all levels of the national youth team for seven years, his results have never been satisfactory. Now that his dismissal seems to be a foregone conclusion, people have been applauding the departure of the "soccer hero". How do you feel about this? People are looking forward to the next coach. According to informed sources, the Football Association prefers to hire a foreign coach. Looking back, Serbian coach Djurdjevic, who coached in China in 1999, was promoted to coach the men's soccer team in 2005. Apparently, it has become a consensus that the national Olympic team will also use foreign coaches. Not only the men's soccer team, but also the overall development of Chinese soccer seems to be inseparable from the help of foreign coaches.
