To this day, in recent years, the Football Association of all kinds of strange tactics, dazzling. Whenever the FA makes another move, it will hardly come as a surprise. However, a recent ridiculous decision by the FA has left many fans, including me, shaking their heads in disbelief.
The Football Association (FA) recently announced that the match between Guangzhou Evergrande and Beijing Guoan in the fifth round of the Chinese Super League (CSL) will be postponed for two reasons: the majority of the national team members are from Evergrande and Guoan, and the upcoming World Cup qualifier between China and Guam. The FA decided to postpone the match in order to protect the national players.
First of all, this decision by the FA is too amateurish. Looking at the top five leagues in Europe, no league has ever postponed a match due to too many international players for one of the giants. The FA's move undoubtedly treats the Chinese Super League as an appendage of the national team. From a professional point of view, the professional league does not need to make sacrifices for the national team. At the same time, professional leagues do not have the responsibility to train young players. However, the FA has put the blame on the professional league, for example, youth training is the responsibility of the FA, but the FA failed to do a good job, but let the Chinese Super League to bear the loss.
Secondly, this move by the FA undermines the fairness of the league. If it's going to be postponed, why not all teams? This round of the national team not only has players from Evergrande and Guoan, but also Shenhua, Shanghai Hong Kong and Shandong. According to informed sources, these teams are not only not postponed this round, but also the players selected for the national team are not allowed to participate in this round of Chinese Super League matches, in order to avoid their injuries. Shenhua, Hong Kong and Shandong's leading players can not play, the impact on the team is obvious, so, the fairness of the Chinese Super League?
In addition, the first two rounds of this round of the World Qualifying Tournament for the national soccer team are Guam and Maldives, two teams whose players are mostly non-professionals, and in the past we were able to easily dunk a dozen or so goals on them in each of our matches. Is it necessary for the FA to make such a big deal out of it? After all, we are still home. In fact, from the time Lippi angrily resigned and the FA chose Li Tie, the rookie coach of the national team, it showed that the FA did not have much expectation for the national football team to enter the World Preliminary 12. Li Tie to name and seniority as an excuse, the FA first find a good backer, the two hit it off. But if you lose to Guam and the Maldives, the results and pressure can not be borne by anyone, so the FA is like a big enemy.
To take a step back, according to the FA's current standards, if we get into the Top 12, then shouldn't the Chinese Super League be suspended? Or in order to protect the national players, the FA directly introduced a new rule: other players in the Super League are prohibited from fouling the national players! Haha!
