Zheng Zhi has won a series of honors as a player, he has won the Asian Footballer of the Year, the winner of the Golden Ball, and the former national team coach once said: "Give me 11 Zheng Zhi, I can lead the Chinese team to the top 18 of the World Cup!" ”
However, Zheng Zhi was quite controversial when he served as the Chinese coach of the Chinese men's football team, especially in the round of 36 of the World Preliminaries, facing Thailand and South Korea, many media accused him of overstepping his responsibilities and not taking the head coach seriously, and even attributed the home loss to Thailand to the inaction and chaos of the Chinese coaching staff!
After Ivan was elected as the head coach of the Chinese men's football team, it is said that he resolutely refused to be equipped with a Chinese coaching team.
The national football team advanced to the top 18, after the draw and grouping ceremony, the news of Zheng Zhi's transfer from the Chinese coaching staff was once again in the dust, and some fans even claimed that as long as the Chinese coaching staff did not interfere and Zheng Zhi left the team, the probability of the Chinese men's football team entering the World Cup would increase by more than 50%.
Objectively speaking, Zheng Zhi's performance in the player era was still quite good, especially in the area of consciousness, which was a leader in the Chinese team at that time.
As for the ability to coach, I haven't shown it yet.
Personally, I think that if the team that selects the coach thinks that Zheng Zhi is suitable for the position of head coach of the national football team, they will boldly let him go and lead the Chinese men's football team to the World Preliminaries.
When we spend a lot of money to hire a foreign coach to take charge of the Chinese men's football team, we let people do it, and we don't need to use suspicious people, at least the experience of the previous sessions tells us that the allocation of the Chinese coaching staff has not improved the performance of the Chinese men's football team, in this case, why not change a strategy? How bad can the result be?
The coach is our choice, but we are not willing to let people do it, and if the results are not good, they will become the backstabber, and if they change it, they will leave with a full harvest, what will be left for Chinese football?
Of course, it is the responsibility of the head coach to lead the team to poor results, if you want to say that it is the responsibility of others, they may not even be able to make decisions about the selection of players and the arrangement of the lineup!
I think if the Chinese men's football team can engage in a contracting system, the performance is directly linked to the performance of the Football Association, and the rewards and punishments are clear, the national football team should have been a frequent visitor to the World Cup a long time ago, right?
