Chapter 1052 Great Bitter Lord
"Boss, I got the news from the Football Association, and the head coach has basically confirmed it."
It was still in the distant video that Xiang Tianming, who was in Beijing, conveyed the latest news to Gao Han.
"Who?" Gao Han asked with concern.
This time, the Football Association's coach selection was hidden deeper. Even in the end, it was clouds and mist. Before the last moment, except for the core senior executives of the Football Association, few people really knew what the final result was.
Even Gao Han, during his time in Madrid, during his meeting with the Football Association bosses, he basically only knew that two of the six German interviewers were finally identified, but Gao Han was not very clear about who it was.
"Alan Perlan." Xiang Tianming said.
After hearing this, Gao Han nodded slightly, "He is a good coach. With his ability, there is definitely no problem in coaching the national football team."
This sentence does not mean that Alan Perrin is such a clever head coach. With his coaching ability, he may not even be in the front line among the head coaches in European football, but it is definitely more than enough to coach the national football team.
This is also very consistent with what the national football team said before. This time, the coach selection is indeed very pragmatic and does not blindly pursue fame. It is more important to consider fitting the coach position of the national football team as the primary consideration, so that Alan Perlan will be chosen.
In the words of the Football Association boss, it is a good match.
Wear the big hat as big as your head, which is also a good choice.
What's more, Alan Perlan will definitely cherish the opportunity to coach Chinese football more and will be more attentive.
"Boss, there is still a lot of controversy in China now."
"Why?"
"Everyone wanted you to coach the national team before, but suddenly he became someone else. If he was a world-famous coach, then that would be fine, but it was the unknown Alan Perlan. Many people think that the Football Association picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons."
Gao Han smiled after hearing this.
He is grateful for the fans' appreciation and affirmation, and he is even willing to coach the national football team. In addition to fulfilling a dream in his heart, if he insists on saying for someone, it must be for the majority of Chinese fans.
As a Chinese, Gao Han knew in his heart that many people cursed the national football team and the Football Association, but they chased every national team game and watched it. In their hearts, they still hope that their scolding could play a role and make the national football team successful.
Gao Han understands the feeling of regret that he cannot make a steel.
But the national football team's current strength is really not good. Not to mention playing in the World Cup, even in Asia, it does not have much competitiveness.
"I have learned about Alan Perrin. You know, Drogba has played under him, and I have also known him with many French industry insiders, such as Zidane and Marklele. They have a good evaluation of Alan Perrin. They must have coaching skills. I hope he can lead the national football team to play at a level."
Gao Han did not feel regretful about not being able to coach the national team because this was a choice he took the initiative.
In fact, from the Football Association extending an olive branch to him through Xiang Tianming, Gao Han knew that as long as he compromised in some matters, the Football Association chose him to coach without hesitation, but he was unwilling, so he politely declined through Xiang Tianming before.
Now, Alan Perlan coaches the national football team, Gao Han also sincerely hopes that he can succeed.
Gao Han's evaluation of the Football Association's coaching selection this time is quite high.
Xiang Tianming also understood Gao Han's mood, and also knew that his blessing to Alan Perrin was also from the bottom of his heart.
The coaching ability meets the requirements and whether it can succeed is a two-part matter.
Whether in a professional club or a national team, there are too many factors that affect the success or failure of coaching and cannot be quantified at all.
It's like Martino, his performance in the first half was outstanding and eye-catching, right?
But what is the result?
With Barcelona's increasingly fierce internal strife, Martino is basically out of class after the end of this season. With internal and external troubles, it is difficult to explain how far Barcelona can go this season.
Maybe when Barcelona suddenly collapsed, who knows?
In the European football world, where professionalism and football industry are very professional, this is the case, and the risk of Alan Perrin coaching the national football team will not be small, and it can even be said to be full of crises.
"After the Football Association announced, I will post a Weibo post to support Alan Perlan," Gao Han said.
He only hoped from the bottom of his heart that Alan Perrin would succeed.
Xiang Tianming nodded. At this time, he was able to get Gao Han's support was definitely a great help for Alan Perlan.
"By the way, the Football Association working group will go to Spain again in a few days, and there are also senior executives of several domestic clubs accompanying me. I have some things here and I can't go there at that time." Xiang Tianming said.
Gao Han nodded, this was planned in advance.
The Football Association Working Group mainly came to negotiate football cooperation projects with the Spanish Football Association, the Professional League and the Spanish government, including youth training, coach training and referee training.
Such negotiations will continue to appear in the next six months until the final agreement is reached, and then the cooperation agreement will be signed under the witness of the country's supreme leader during the visit of Spanish Prime Minister Rajoy.
After turning off the video with Xiang Tianming, Gao Han looked worried.
He is optimistic about Alan Perrin. Whether it is the word of mouth he hears or the investigation with sharp eyes, it proves that Alan Perrin is a capable head coach, but...
Gao Han finally breathed heavily.
I wish him good luck!

Media around the world look the same.
When Chinatown failed to win two games, all media exaggerated Chinatown as a pity, as if it would collapse at any time. When the team finally won one game, they all pulled public opinion back.
When Chinatown defeated Schalke 04, 6-1 away in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals knockout match, Chinatown's reputation once again exploded in the mouths of all media reporters.
Morata, Hazard and Griezmann all scored twice, including Morata and Hazard, and Montoya also contributed an assist, completing an amazing bloodbath on the away game.
Schalke Zero Four only scored a goal in the 91st minute, Dutch center Hunteral scored and regained its face.
After winning such an overwhelming victory, Chinatown was full of morale, and media reporters praised Chinatown as overwhelming, but this was just the beginning.
Three days later, after returning to Spain, he welcomed his 26th round of opponents at home. Granada and Chinatown played with a half-substitute lineup, and defeated Granada four to zero at home.
Within a week, three games, twelve goals and one goal was conceded. Such an amazing record made Chinatown receive crazy praise.
More importantly, in the 26th round, Atletico Madrid drew Real Madrid 2-2 at home, causing a loss-making situation again. However, due to Barcelona's four-to-one home victory, Chinatown's lead was still only seven points.
But the good times didn't last long. A week later, Chinatown challenged Valencia away, and Zidane made another rotation, but this time he was tied by the Bats team one-to-one away game. With a 61% possession rate, he still failed to break Valencia's goal.
Barcelona is also unlucky, with Zero Biyi's away game losing to Valladolid, which encountered a big upset, but Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid both won one after another.
As a result, Chinatown's lead is still only seven points, but the second-ranked team has changed from Barcelona to Atletico Madrid.
In the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals 16 knockout match in the mid-week, Chinatown defeated Schalke zero four three-to-one and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals with a total score of 9-2.
The opponent this time was the Bundesliga team, Klopp's Dortmund.
But on the weekend, Chinatown encountered another tenacious sniper from the opponent away.
With one more person than the opponent, he failed to turn the defeat into victory and finally drew with Villarreal one-to-one away.
Once the coaching target of Chinatown, Marcellino proved his coaching ability with a wonderful sniper battle and also won valuable points for Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.
After this round of battle, Chinatown's lead was narrowed to five points.
Barcelona and Atletico Madrid both caught up, especially Barcelona's 7-0 victory over Osasuna at home, which was even more admirable.
A week later, in the 29th round of La Liga, Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 4-3 away, Chinatown defeated Getafe 1-0, Atletico Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-0 away, and the league points remain unchanged.
But in the 30th round of La Liga in the middle of the week, Chinatown drew Elche 2-2 away, Barcelona beat Vigo Celta 3-0 at home, and Atletico Madrid also beat Granada 1-0 at home.
Chinatown's lead continued to narrow to just three points, and the lead against Barcelona, the third-place league, was only four points.
Three days later, in the 31st round of La Liga, Chinatown welcomed Atletico Madrid at home.
For the mid-week Champions League, Zidane once again rotated the squad.
Just six minutes into the game, Griezmann took the lead in scoring a goal for Chinatown, but Torres equalized the score in the 22nd minute, and then the two sides were in a stalemate.
After the second half of the game, in the 64th minute, central defender Devry received his second yellow card and was sent off with a red card.
This completely broke the balance of power on the court, with Atletico Madrid scoring a goal by Herrera in the 85th minute.
In the end, Chinatown lost 1-2 at home.
Barcelona, who also played the derby, beat Espanyol 1-0 away, while Real Madrid defeated Vallecano 5-0 home games.
After playing 31 rounds, Chinatown had to accept an uncomfortable result, that is, Atletico Madrid finally caught up with Chinatown in the standings, and the two teams also scored 76 points, but because Atletico Madrid defeated Chinatown twice this season, it finally beat Chinatown in the standings to the top.
Barcelona ranks third by one point difference, while Real Madrid ranks fourth with six points behind Barcelona.
Throughout February and March, all media's evaluation of Chinatown was shaking with the ups and downs of their performance. They gave extremely high praise when winning, and even took advantage of the situation after losing.
Especially in the 31st round, after losing to Atletico Madrid, he gave up the top spot in the league, which put Zidane's team under tremendous public pressure.
From being ahead of seven points to being tied now, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are in a state of unstoppable momentum, while Chinatown has retreated step by step and lost points continuously.
Although this has something to do with Chinatown's younger lineup and excessive rotation, it is also related to the strong strength of its competitors. After all, Chinatown has lost three games so far this season.
