Chapter 1112 The butt decides the head
"It will take me a little longer to answer this question."
Gao Han was obviously mentally prepared for difficult problems and talked about them in the face of the media reporters present.
"I watched videos of all the Chinese national team's games in the past few years, focusing on all the games in the past two years, especially the first six games in the top 40s. I once again affirmed the conclusion I had posted on Weibo before, that is, Chinese players are not worse than players from other Asian countries."
"Even when facing the Asian team that everyone calls them, there is not a big gap in Chinese players in terms of personal abilities. So what exactly causes our players to integrate into a national team, but brings such obvious misunderstandings to everyone?"
This conclusion about Gao Han was mentioned long ago when he commented on the national team's game, which caused quite a lot of controversy at that time. Everyone felt that he overestimated the strength of the national team because neither the performance on the court nor the final result, the national football team did not reach the height Gao Han mentioned.
Of course, during the Asian Cup, the Chinese national football team once showed gratifying changes. At that time, many people thought they were criticized by Gao Han, but their performance after the Asian Cup completely broke all the fantasies, thinking that it was just an extraordinary performance with chicken blood.
And now, Gao Han said this again, obviously he really believed this.
"I noticed a very interesting phenomenon. Our club team is very strong and is very competitive in Asia. Not long ago, Chinatown played a game with our Hengda. We won three to zero, but it should be noted that Chinatown also defeated River Plate three to zero in the final and won the championship."
"From the feedback I have received, Chinatown has a very positive impression of Hengda, from scouts to coaches. At least I recognize that this is a team that can represent the level of top Asian clubs. Hengda's players perform well in club competitions, perform very confidently and passionately, and play their best side, even when facing Chinatown."
"However," Gao Han changed his tone, "the same group of players performed in the national team in a different spirit. I dare say that their performance in the national team did not reach half of the level of club competitions. This is not only a reflection in Hengda, but also other club teams."
Many media reporters below were a little uproar. Gao Han was criticizing the players for not doing their best for the national team?
Even Deputy Director Cai, who was sitting aside, couldn't sit still and looked at Gao Han, indicating that he should not take action against the international players as soon as he took office, which was very unfavorable to his next coaching.
But Gao Han quickly smiled slightly and waved his hand, "Everyone misunderstood what I mean. I'm not criticizing the international players for not doing their best. On the contrary, I'm not unfamiliar with them. I know that they have done their best."
After a pause, Gao Han smiled unpredictably and said, "So the question is, what causes such a gap?"
Everyone present couldn't help but show a thoughtful look. Could it be that the national team really has a curse?
"I think the main problem lies in two aspects. One is the psychological level. Everyone basically recognizes the outstanding performance of the Asian Cup. During the Asian Cup, the international players had the best mental state and the least pressure. They can play their best without reservation."
"There is a second reason, that is, the national team's skills and training have not fully played to their level, so we need to come up with a stable and suitable tactical style for players as soon as possible, because we don't have too much time to explore and prepare slowly."
"Of course, here, I also want to remind all players that in my opinion, playing for the country and wearing a jersey with the Chinese national emblem is the greatest honor and affirmation of a player and the head coach in his life. I will inspect the players in the next period of time. I want every player in the team to have enough self-discipline and overall awareness, so that the national team can form a more inseparable whole."
"If you want to become an international player, you must not only be able to play football on the court, but also have a sufficient sense of responsibility and national mission, dedication, and be able to shoulder the responsibility for the rise and fall of national football. If you do not have such courage, responsibility and determination, then I am sorry, no matter how good you play on the court, I will never let you enter the national team."
Gao Han's powerful and resounding statement undoubtedly made everyone see his determination.
He has enough confidence and enough power to decide and dominate the stay and departure of an international player, no matter who it is.
This is undoubtedly also a wake-up call for the international players.
"In the next period of time, my team and I will visit the training bases where the clubs are located, inspect the international players and communicate with the coaches of each team. I hope to get the advice and support of everyone, and create an effective tactical style for the national team as soon as possible. We will hold a two-week national team training camp in February."
"In the current Forty Group C of the team, our situation is not ideal. We have encountered considerable difficulties and the hope of qualifying does not seem to be great, but what I want to say is that giving up early is never my style, and in my dictionary, we have never given up this word."
"I will not consider whether I can qualify at the end of March, nor will I consider what to do next. I will only do one thing, focus on the national team and play the remaining two games. As long as we win in the last two games, the final result will not matter at all."
Gao Han's answer is indeed a bit long, but it can be seen that he is very frank and straightforward, without any twists and turns, and he points directly to the core of the problem. Even in his attitude towards players, he clearly gives his own material selection standards and specific requirements.
As for how to reverse the unfavorable situation in the top 40s, Gao Han's response is indeed not strong enough, but it is precisely because of this that he shows his honesty. On the contrary, if he keeps advocating that the team will definitely be able to qualify, it will be suspicious.
With the current situation of the national football team, if you win two consecutive victories, even so, you will still have to leave your fate after two consecutive victories.
It can be said that the only thing Gao Han can do is to play these two games well. As for the rest, he can't control it.
After Gao Han answered this question, a burst of warm applause rang out on the scene.
Media reporters are using their applause to repay Gao Han's confession and sincerity.
Many people regard the media as enemies and as beasts, but Gao Han always believes that in the current public opinion environment, living a peaceful relationship with the media is the most beneficial.
"Mr. Gao Han, I am a reporter for Spanish Marca. I have heard a lot of news about you recently, including the list of national players in the new training session. There are news that you may choose a lot of people from Chinatown. Is it true? Also, the Spanish Football Association is interested in inviteing Yang Xin to play for the Spanish national team. What do you think?"
Matayana did not come forward in person, but a reporter from Maca stood up to ask questions, which also caused an uproar at the scene.
It seems that Marca has received a lot of tips, and may even be far more than them.
"I want to reiterate a stake first. Everyone knows my relationship with Chinatown, but I can guarantee that Chinatown will not receive any special treatment in terms of international players."
All the media reporters present recorded it carefully.
"As I said just now, we will hold a two-week national team training camp in February. There will be more national teams selected this time. Of course, for long-term considerations, we will select a group of young international teams to participate in the training camp. Chinatown players are naturally within our consideration. We will announce the list to the public in the near future. I will call every player."
"As for Yang Xin, I know the environment he is currently in, and I also know that he is one of the most promising rookies in the world football world. As the head coach of the Chinese national team, I certainly hope that he can play for China, but I understand and respect all the decisions of him and his family. Regardless of whether he plays for China in the future, I hope that he can succeed in European football, and I don't want anyone to use this to attack him."
The reason why a group of young players is mainly for the future consideration.
With the current situation of the national football team, there is not much hope of qualifying for this World Cup, but Gao Han has to defend himself in advance. If he cannot advance to the top 40, there will be no major competition in the next four years. Training young players is Gao Han's top priority. Wang Lei, Zhao Jun, Gao Ren and others are naturally the key considerations.
What's more, he has a coaching system in hand and has great convenience in cultivating young players. After recruiting players to the team for inspection, he will consider giving players skill cards in the game to make the players' progress more obvious.
Therefore, many young players will appear in international players participating in the training camp in February.
But it is not easy for Gao Han to gather the players on the list.
The schedule of the Chinese Super League is different from that of the European League. In February, each team is still in the training stage, and many teams are abroad. At this time, Gao Han wants to draw their main players, and each club must refuse.
This is also the reason why Gao Han decided to inspect the club teams in the near future, and he wanted to lobby himself.
After all, he is a newcomer and is not familiar with the specific situation of the international players. Without the training camp in the past two weeks, he would have been very confident that he would be able to integrate the team by the end of March.
Sometimes when you think about it, Gao Han really finds it funny.
When he coached the club, he hated the national team's transfer of national players. He almost fought with the national team several times, but now after he became the head coach of the national team, he suddenly realized that being the head coach of the national team was also very depressed.
Just say that he will play the game at the end of March. Before the two key decisive battles, he only has one week to prepare for the game, which is far from enough, so he needs to organize a training camp in February. But the problem is that in February, the club is preparing for the pre-season and drawing their international players. The club's head coach must be cursing.
Think about it carefully, is this considered as a butt determining the head?
Gao Han then answered many questions raised by media reporters. The most eye-catching point is that he said that the Football Association will follow the mainstream of FIFA in the near future. Once the national team is injured in the national team game and affects the club's game, the Football Association will give corresponding compensation.
This is a consensus in international football, but it is still relatively new in Chinese football.
