Super Marshal

"You guys know my phone number."

Gao Han's Weibo post quickly caused a storm in China.

First, it triggered crazy likes and reposts from netizens and fans across the country on the Internet. Then it quickly aroused heated discussions in the media circle, and even many authoritative domestic media and TV stations reported on it.

A simple sentence expressed all Gao Han's thoughts.

He is willing to risk his life's honor and disgrace to come forward at such a critical moment to clean up this mess!

*******,******.

This is the evaluation given by China News Service on Gao Han’s Weibo post.

Commentators said that given Gao Han's status in world football today, he is absolutely highly respected. His disciples who were influenced by Gao Han's tactical concepts are all over the five major European leagues, even FIFA President Sepp Blatter and UEFA Chairman Platini treated Gao Han extremely politely.

Chinatown has defended the UEFA Champions League for two consecutive seasons. Fifteen years after its establishment, Chinatown has successfully joined the ranks of European giants. Its youth training is even more proud of the European giants. It has invested in multiple youth training centers in China. Gao Han's net worth is as high as several billion euros.

For an expert at his level, there is absolutely no need to go into the muddy waters of the national football team. He can completely be a bystander, but he has extended an olive branch to the national team again and again, even now. In this critical moment, he still risked his life's honor and disgrace without hesitation.

Is he coveting the fame, fortune and status that comes with being the head coach of the national team?

wrong! He loves football from the bottom of his heart, and he hopes from the bottom of his heart that Chinese football can stand proudly among the world's football powers like his Chinatown.

"I once had the honor to interview Gao Han face-to-face. He told me many stories about coaching in Europe. He said that whenever it comes to the national team match day, he always feels particularly heavy, not only because his international players have to play for the national team. He travels for national team matches because the national team in his home country always disappoints."

"He once told me poignantly that Chinese football is not the football of the Football Association, not anyone or any organization, but football that belongs to all Chinese people, and his biggest wish in life is to one day be able to see China with his own eyes. Football rises.”

"Now, when the national team is in a life-or-death situation, Gao Han has made a choice with his actual actions and proved his determination to everyone. This sentiment is worthy of admiration from all of us."

However, China News Agency also stated in its comments that Gao Han's Weibo also revealed another meaning. He is willing to bet his life's honor and disgrace on the national team, but he is definitely not a chess piece that can be manipulated by just anyone. This point begins with his request. It is evident that the Football Association took the initiative to call him.

"Gao Han made a very courageous decision. He is willing to take over the national team, but does the Football Association dare to accept it?"

Following Gao Han's Weibo post, the whole country fell into a heated discussion.

Almost everyone called on the Football Association to fire Perrin and invite Gao Han to coach the national team.

But before the huge noise, the news from the Football Association was as quiet as a stone sinking into the sea.

No one came forward, no one responded, and even the originally routine press conference was quietly cancelled.

Only Gao Han, who was far away in Spain, received private calls from many leaders of the General Administration of Sports and the Football Association, including Deputy Director Cai. They all reluctantly told Gao Han that the General Administration of Sports and the Football Association had held many internal discussions, but nothing happened. One result can be drawn. It is obvious that the internal opposition to Gao Han taking over is still very strong.

This is normal. The General Administration of Sports and the Football Association are not monolithic. Some people support Gao Han, while others naturally oppose it.

Especially considering that Gao Han's methods and strength will definitely cause damage to the interests of some people after taking office, it is naturally impossible for them to agree to let Gao Han get his wish.

Gao Han also understood this and felt that some things had begun to change quietly.

Since there was no hope of coaching the national team, Gao Han turned all his thoughts to other aspects.

The first step is to strive for further cooperation between China and Spain in football. For example, Chinese players can play and compete in Spain without occupying foreign aid quotas.

As early as September last year, the cooperation project signed between China and Spain included Chinese national-level teams participating in Spanish low-level leagues, and also included young Chinese players receiving training in Spain. The lifting of foreign aid restrictions for Chinese players is undoubtedly a good idea. An upgraded version of this series of projects.

After careful selection by Chinatown, only three players from the youth team of BJ Chinatown were able to stay on the team. Gao Ren, Wang Lei and Zhao Jun. The other players may have been assigned to other La Liga or La Liga teams. Trials, or trials with teams in other European leagues, the most popular ones are France, the Netherlands and the Portuguese Super League. Mendes has the widest contacts in these countries.

If that still doesn't work, but the players are eager to study abroad, Mendes will continue to arrange for them to go to league teams in other countries such as Croatia, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, and Austria.

As for the three Chinese players who stayed in the team, plus Yang Xin who was already in the team, they directly entered the youth team in Chinatown, along with Mbappe, Dembele, Ceballos and Asensio. Together with others, he represented Chinatown’s second team in the Spanish third-tier league.

Gao Han and Cantarero also attach great importance to these young players, especially Gao Han, who frequently appears in the second team's games to watch the performances of several young players, and often communicates with them after the game. But there will be no special treatment for several Chinese players, but equal treatment.

After all, Gao Han believes even more that strength must speak for itself on the court.

Fortunately, these three players are also good enough. The frontcourt attack combination composed of Yang Xin, Gao Ren, Mbappe and Dembele made the Chinatown Second Team stand out among the others in the third-level league, defeating them with big scores. Opponents, the call to enter the first team is very high, Zidane also said that he will give young players a chance in the King's Cup.

If they can represent the first team in the Copa del Rey, it will undoubtedly create a new record.

But for this group of young players, Gao Han and Cantarero focus more on protection, especially in terms of physical health and injuries, because they all know that injuries are the biggest enemy of genius.

After two weeks of national team competition, the team returned to the eighth round of La Liga.

China Town welcomed Rayo Vallecano at the Royal Stadium. As a result, at home, with Hazard's hat trick, Dybala and Morata's goals, they beat Rayo Vallecano 5-1 and won a game. A wonderful victory, very proud.

Since this season, Chinatown's offense has been criticized, especially after selling Firmino and Griezmann, the outside world has expressed concerns about Chinatown's offense in the new season.

But only Zidane and the club's top brass know that Dybala and Morata are fully capable of replacing Firmino and Griezmann, plus Jese, Martial, Kingsley Coman and With Jesus and other young players, Chinatown's forward line is still full of talents, and offense is not a problem at all.

The reason for the poor performance at the beginning of the season is that the team did not have enough time to adjust this summer.

And this five-to-one victory seemed more like igniting Chinatown's offensive enthusiasm.

In the third round of the Champions League group stage in the following midweek, Chinatown defeated Arsenal 2-0 in an away game. The Gunners suffered a three-game losing streak in the group stage. Wenger's team encountered many problems this season, even losing consecutive games. The hope of qualifying for the Champions League group stage has become increasingly slim, which has surprised everyone.

After returning to La Liga, in the ninth round, Chinatown once again defeated Eibar 3-1 at home.

A week later, in the tenth round of La Liga, Chinatown welcomed the Madrid Southern Suburbs Derby and beat Getafe 5-0 away from home.

In the middle of the week, Chinatown narrowly defeated Arsenal 2-1 at home, advancing from the top spot in the Champions League with its fourth consecutive victory. This also made all fans feel Chinatown's strong confidence in the Champions League. .

Becoming the first team to successfully defend the Champions League since the restructuring has made Chinatown feel more confident. Even against giant clubs like Assen, Chinatown can handle it with ease.

After returning to La Liga, it was the eleventh round. Chinatown welcomed Villarreal at home.

Jese's brace and Jesus' goal helped Chinatown beat Yellow Submarine 3-0 at home.

After eleven rounds, Chinatown ranked first in La Liga with a record of nine wins and two losses, followed by Barcelona and Atletico Madrid with one point behind, and Real Madrid ranked fourth with 24 points.

The top four teams in La Liga can be said to be in a league of their own. From the beginning of the season, they have shown that they are more than a step ahead of other teams.

Valencia, which invested more than 100 million euros this summer, only ranked eighth after eleven rounds.

This once again proves an iron law of European leagues, money alone cannot buy a championship.

After the eleventh round, La Liga was suspended again, ushering in two weeks of national team match days.

November 12, Changsha.

In the fifth round of the World Cup qualifying round, China slaughtered Bhutan 12-0 at home.

This hearty victory injected a shot of stimulant into the long-suffering Chinese football. The domestic media and fans were very excited. Everyone knows that Bhutan is not strong, but the national football team has been in decline for a long time and can play ten games at home. The two-goal victory undoubtedly rekindled everyone's hope.

Maybe, we can still win the next three games?

But just when everyone was rekindling hopes for the national football team, a week later on the 19th, the national football team was once again tied with their opponents 0-0 in Hong Kong, missing the three points that were guaranteed in the original plan.

The opponent, Qatar, advanced to the top 12 with six consecutive wins in the group stage.

This draw completely exploded domestic public opinion.

All fans are unprecedentedly angry, and no one can accept that the national team ended in this way. This is more like a humiliation to the fans.

Whenever people lose confidence in the national football team, they can always give better performances, but when the fans give them confidence, they always ruthlessly destroy or even trample them again and again.

Two games against Hong Kong, China, zero to zero. What kind of slap in the face is this?

Even after the game, the national football team, the coaching staff and the Football Association all believed that it was the referee's misjudgment that caused the national football team to fail to win the away game in Hong Kong, China, but no one wanted to pay attention to such an explanation.

Because this is the second zero-0 draw with Hong Kong.

Domestic media and fans launched a verbal attack on the Football Association and the national team. The clamor for Perrin's dismissal became louder again. Many fans even angrily suggested that China should disband the national team.

"We can no longer afford this."

"We are physically and mentally exhausted from coming here every four years."

"We can't even make up jokes about the national football team now. There is really no one who can be so bad that 1.3 billion people are exhausted."

Not only were the fans unprecedentedly angry, but even the most authoritative party newspaper wrote an article criticizing the national team's performance.

"Even the best signing in history can't save the national football team. Who else can we rely on to save you?"
