The team unexpectedly suffered a 1-5 defeat in a match against Wuhan Sanzhen, after which the team announced that manager Xie Feng had "resigned".
Subsequently, Sui Dongliang temporarily acted as the head coach and led the team to three matches, with a record of 2 wins and 1 loss, beating Wuhan Changjiang and Guangzhou City, but losing in the matchup with Shanghai Shenhua, and the overall performance still hovered in the middle level.
Halfway through the season, the arrival of a new head coach seems to have reinvigorated the team, but fans may be wondering: what kind of background does Stanley Menzo, have?
In fact, Stanley's relationship with
national security
is not the first time he has tied the knot. Back in 2019, he served as a
national security
coach of the reserve team and led the team to an AFC Cup 1/8 final victory over Chengdu Rongcheng of the Central League in the 2020 season.
It follows that Stanley's interest in

Has a deep understanding and is expected to quickly integrate into the team and implement his tactical strategy.
Further exploration of Stanley's background will reveal that he bears the imprint of Dutch soccer. In terms of soccer philosophy, Stanley was a true believer in Cruyff, and the all-attack, all-defense soccer philosophy was exactly what Cruyff advocated.
So, what is total offense and total defense? In short, it is the ten players except the goalkeeper on the field is not bound to the position, the pursuit of space changes, emphasizing the whole rather than the individual, the players have full freedom to play.
Stanley pushed the all-attack all-defense even affect the goalkeeper position, advocating that the goalkeeper can control the ball in the penalty area, and even rushed out of the penalty area to launch an attack, which is similar to Cruyff's pioneering goalkeeper coaching position.
The reason why Stanley was heavily influenced by Cruyff's soccer philosophy is closely related to his own soccer career. The 1963-born coach studied under Cruyff and another Dutch great, Louis van Gaal, during his playing days.
Stanley, 59, has won several championships as a starter for Ajax and has been a starter in the Bundesliga and Ligue 1.
After retiring in 1999, Stanley coached clubs in the Dutch B, Dutch Ligue 1, Belgian Ligue 1 and South African Premier League, and was part of the Dutch national team's coaching staff with the team in the Euro and World Cup.

The team has always adopted the Dutch soccer system, and Stanley, as a former reserve team coach, naturally became the ideal candidate, who is not only good at developing young players, but also extremely cost-effective.
Stanley probably wouldn't have made the decision to leave if it weren't for the lack of games during the epidemic and the inability to be with his family.
When Stanley left Beijing in December 2020, he bid farewell to the club and fans via video, saying in emotive Dutch: "

Well, Stanley coached

What will be the outlook for the future? This is something to really look forward to.
During his tenure as reserve team coach, Stanley faced the challenge of how to transform the "proposition essay" into the development of individual players' abilities. The 433 formation adopted by the team at that time aimed to enhance the individual abilities of players, which left room for Stanley's tactical innovation.
In addition, Stanley showed flexibility during his time in charge of the reserves, not unrelated to his early years of street soccer, and his philosophy of soccer was always dynamic.
Regardless, the current

The team was in dire need of a change and Stanley was just the man to bring it about, which is why the club ultimately chose him.
