After the Asian Cup, Perrin resigned and the World Cup qualifiers were imminent. The new national team and the new national football team became the focus of everyone's attention.
However, due to the huge earthquake in the Football Association, the national team and the head coach have not been able to say anything, making the fans anxious.
After finally waiting and waiting, I finally got such an explanation.
Xiao Qian?
who is he?
No, isn’t he engaged in entertainment culture?
Does he have a coaching certificate?
Public opinion from the outside world exploded, and criticism surged. Many people said sadly that Chinese football was finished.
The Football Association has also been under tremendous pressure, and many people have resentments in their hearts.
However, there was nothing they could do to change this outcome.
Because this is a decision made directly from above.
After talking to Xiao Qian that day, Li Jianguo became more cautious.
He was not easily persuaded by Xiao Qian, but secretly conducted an investigation.
He personally went to Heilongjiang to see the current football situation in Heilongjiang, and also communicated with Chu Dayou, Gao Xun and others.
What he didn't expect was that Chu Dayou and Gao Xun had the same views as Xiao Qian.
They all told Li Jianguo that if Longjiang Sports were to form the national team, it would be able to compete for the World Cup championship.
And if he wants to implement this move at the national team level, the head coach really must let Xiao Qian come.
Because of Xiao Qian's status and influence, with him here, the national team will not be interfered by the outside world and can fully exert its full strength.
Regarding Li Jianguo's doubts, Xiao Qian had no coaching experience, which made both Chu Dayou and Gao Xun very amused.
After listening to their introduction, Li Jianguo understood that today's Longjiang football team's playing style is completely unified from childhood to adulthood, and there is no need for a head coach to arrange tactics.
Heilongjiang's football style is true total offense, total defense, combined with ultimate passing control and tacit understanding, and its concepts and techniques are far higher than those in today's world football.
A real coach can win even if he has a dog on the bench.
After the on-site inspection, Li Jianguo completely strengthened his confidence. After returning, he started operations.
Amid the turmoil from the outside world, the Football Association quickly made an official announcement, confirming Xiao Qian as the head coach.
Xiao Qian could no longer hide in Ireland for leisure, so he immediately returned to China and began to perform his duties as head coach.
While still on the plane, he directly designated a list of candidates for the team leader and logistics. Unsurprisingly, they were all from the Heilongjiang Football Association. He did not want to use any of those people from the Football Association.
There were widespread complaints within the Football Association about his actions, and many people raised objections.
At this time, he could see the benefits of choosing him as the head coach. These pressures were like floating clouds to him, and he didn't care at all.
"I'm here to win the championship. Now that I've won the championship, hello to me and hello to everyone. If you don't want to, then go home and rest for a while."
In the internal meeting, Xiao Qian was extremely domineering and explained clearly and clearly.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"Mr. Xiao, do you think our Chinese team can win the World Cup?"
The Football Association officials had a hard time holding back their laughter, thinking that Xiao Qian was just having a wild dream.
Who doesn’t know the level of the Chinese team?
Xiao Qian stared at him and said bluntly: "There seems to be a big difference between the national team you think of and the national team I want to form."
Because the first game will start in June, Xiao Qian's national team roster was announced immediately after he took office.
It's okay if the list is not announced, but once it is announced, the effect is simply earthquake-level.
The fans are full of joy, thinking that with him as the head coach, they can finally see Lin Ke, Bai Siyu, Gao Junyi and others in the national team.
The result was none.
Neither are the regulars of the national team that fans are familiar with in the past.
Instead, all members of the new Longjiang Athletic Team were selected for the national team, a group of young players around the age of 19 or 20.
At the press conference, media reporters were full of fire and asked very pointed questions.
"Excuse me, Mr. Xiao, what are your criteria for selecting members of the national team?"
Xiao Qian is very plain.
"Choose whoever is stronger."
This answer made many people dumbfounded.
The last Longjiang Athletic Club disintegrated after winning the Triple Crown. Players left for Europe one after another. Almost everyone believed that this unreplicable super team would become history.
What I didn't expect was that the new generation of players promoted by Longjiang Athletics were still as strong as ever. They still maintained an 8:0 score in every game, not giving their opponents a single chance.
But reporters are not good at other things. The skill of Gonghuo is at the master level.
"Since whoever is strong will be selected, why are Lin Ke, Bai Siyu and others not selected for the national team?"
Xiao Qian had a hard time holding back her laughter.
"They have competitions in Europe, so they are quite busy, and running back and forth is very tiring."
He added another sentence.
"No, for a qualifier, do we have to get our best players back?"
These words were like a peerless sword that split open the boundless black clouds, leaving everyone immersed in shock for a long time.
When did Chinese football become qualified to say such things?
Haven't we been doing our best to compete in the World Cup?
Don't worry about grouping, the relationship between victory and defeat, even the goal difference against weak teams must be calculated carefully.
As a result, when Xiao Qian came here, he didn't even recruit the best players.
But when you think about the strength of the new Longjiang Athletic Team, even the least confident people don’t know how to refute it.
Another reporter came forward. I don’t know which club he was talking to.
"Mr. Xiao, we still have many outstanding players. But you only choose players from Longjiang Athletic. Isn't it too nepotistic?"
"who?"
The reporter was confused by this rhetorical question.
"Who?"
Xiao Qian asked sharply: "You said there are still outstanding players in China, who are they?"
The reporter blushed and had to argue: "There are many, Evergrande, SIPG, Guoan..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Qian was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.
"Whenever they can break through the gate of Longjiang Athletics, I will recruit them."
Just one sentence made everyone else laugh.
After the content of the press conference was announced, it aroused heated discussion from the outside world. However, many fans were impressed by Xiao Qian's frankness and domineering attitude.
[I am a fan of Evergrande, and I don’t think anyone in Evergrande is worthy of this national team.]
[Guoan fans agree, they are not from the same dimension at all.]
[Our captain plays football and wears a necklace. If he can get into this national team, then there is really no hope for Chinese football.]
Xiao Qian's national team is completely different from previous national teams. Because all Longjiang Athletic players are used, there is no training camp at all.
As a result, when the national team competition came, all the players who had not entered the national team had a relaxing holiday.
The Longjiang Athletic players only came to the scene three days before the game.
Li Jianguo got angry again and ran over to ask in person.
"Why doesn't your national team train?"
Xiao Qian was helpless.
"They train together in the club, so why do they need to train together? What's the point of training for these crooked people?"
Li Jianguo couldn't see his arrogance and snorted: "Look at you losing."
Xiao Qian simply pretended not to hear.
On June 16, the Chinese team ushered in the first round of the 2018 World Cup qualifying match and went away to play against Bhutan.
Xiao Qian only met his team members when they were on the field in Bhutan.
He gave a speech, very frankly.
"Unfortunately for you, I can't take you with me during the World Cup. You have to make way for the seniors, after all, they are the main force. What I only regret is, why is the World Cup not held every two years? In that case, I can say goodbye
I will lead you to participate in the World Cup main game. I have no choice but to leave the stage of the qualifiers to you young people. However, I will see your contribution, and the country and fans will also see it. I believe it.
I, the glory that belongs to you, will not be less at all."
The players were laughing and joking, but their emotions were not affected at all.
They also know very well that the stage of the World Cup main game must belong to seniors such as Lin Ke, Bai Siyu, Wang Shangyi, and Gao Zhunyi.
And the entire qualifiers will be taken care of by them.
This is the trouble caused by too many excellent players, and they can only be distributed like this.
In the match against Bhutan, the score was 8:0, which continued the consistent style of Longjiang Athletics and made the fans complain.
During the game, Xiao Qian didn't even get up once. She sat on the coach's bench and watched... "Tang Brick" with a tablet.
There was really nothing to direct. Except for the kick-off, Bhutan never touched the ball.
On September 3, the Chinese team played against Hong Kong, China in Shenzhen.
This game is what excites the fans the most.
Although the Chinese Hong Kong team defended with all their strength, they were still defeated by the Chinese team 8:0, with a 16-goal difference in two rounds.
The match against Qatar on October 8 is what Chinese fans are most concerned about.
Because Qatar is the strongest opponent in this group, but the 8:0 score completely made the fans put their hearts back in their stomachs.
8:0 in four games. What the Chinese team has shown is far beyond common sense.
Even the most timid fans have already begun to dream about the Chinese team's performance in the World Cup.
