Chapter 164 Press Conference
At the beginning of the press conference, the person in charge of the Football Association spoke first. The main content was that the Chinese Football Association will terminate the contract with Camacho from now on, and Camacho will no longer serve as the head coach of the Chinese national team.
Then mainly introduced the details of the cooperation with Stan. The contract signed by the Football Association and Stan lasts for 2 and a half years. From January 2012, 1 to the end of the World Cup in Brazil, Stan will also serve as the head coach of the club in the first year. From the second year, Stan will become the full-time head coach of the Chinese national team. Stan's main task is to lead the Chinese national team to the World Cup qualifiers.
After making a routine introduction, the person in charge of the Football Association handed over the time to Stan, looking at the expectant eyes below.
The Chinese have waited too long for this moment. For nearly 10 years, the coaching position of the Chinese national team has been changing like a revolving lantern, with names flashing in their minds. Now the head coach of the Chinese national team has ushered in a Yugoslavian. The whole of China is looking forward to it.
Stan first thanked the Football Association for its trust in him, and then Stan started his own style. Yes, he was going to tell everyone that the Camacho era is over, and now it is my era.
"Hello everyone",
Then Stan holds out his hand, making a gesture to check the time.
"BJ Time, December 2011, 12, 19:8 PM, Stan Era Begins",
After hearing Stan's words, there was thunderous applause. It is no exaggeration to say that the atmosphere was more lively than that of the Spring Festival Gala.
"I hope the Stan era lasts a little longer, at least longer than Camacho",
The reporters below all laughed, and there were sporadic applause in response to Stan.
"The last Yugoslavian who sat as the head coach of the Chinese national team was Milu. It was a long time ago, but I heard that he did a good job."
Still sporadic laughter.
"I wish I could do better than him",
As soon as this remark came out, no one laughed, because everyone understood that this sentence meant that the minimum goal of Stan leading the team was to enter the World Cup, and judging from the current situation, this goal is not easy.
"What is Milu's football philosophy"?Stan asked.
"Attitude is everything", many people answer Stan.
Yes, this sentence spread all over China, not only in the football circle, but also in many schools. Teachers used this sentence to encourage their students. The Chinese national team invited many foreign teachers and said a lot, but this sentence is really the only one that is regarded as a classic.
Stan snapped his fingers and said: "Yes, but besides this sentence, Milou has a football philosophy".
At this time, everyone couldn't answer.
"That's fun football," Stein said.
"And Milu not only said that, but also did so. I remember that during the Korea-Japan World Cup qualifiers, the last game was against Uzbekistan. The Chinese team had already qualified ahead of schedule. Milu sent a substitute goalkeeper "Ou Chuliang". He wanted every player to have a chance to play and feel the joy of football."
Even many professional football reporters on the scene may not remember this period of history, but Stan can tell it eloquently, which makes many people admire it.
"I also like happy football. I think football should bring happiness to people, so I hope it will bring you a lot of happiness in the future," Stein continued.
After listening to Stan's words, most of them have been convinced by him. Although Camacho also said when he took office that he wanted to bring happiness to the fans and take the team to Brazil, etc., everyone didn't believe his words.
But after hearing Stan's words, many people naturally believed it.
It's almost finished, Stan looked at the reporters below with a smile, and said: "You must have been holding back for a long time, and you can ask questions now."
As soon as the words fell, hundreds of hands were raised at the same time. Stan looked at the posture, made a surprised expression, and said, "You all got number plates when you came in."
Many people nodded.
"That's good, I will randomly say the number, and those who are called by me will stand up and ask questions."
This is a very fair approach, and no one at the scene objected.
"No. 7, this is a number that Westerners like very much."
The reporter who was called stood up and asked questions.
"Coach Stan, we all know your coaching ability, but now the Chinese national team has 20 win and 1 losses in the top 2 matches, and the qualifying situation is precarious. Do you have any ways to lead the Chinese national team to break through the encirclement?"
"First of all, I don't think the situation is in jeopardy, because we still have 3 games, as long as we win all of them. Besides, what do you think I can do? I think I will focus on the details. It's not convenient to say specific things. Let's watch my team's game then."
Careful people may have noticed the change in Stan's words. He didn't mean the Chinese national team, but my team. This is Stan's style.
"Next, number 9",
"Coach Stan, will Li Qiao, who was expelled from the national team, come back"?
"Of course", Stan said these two words firmly.
The reporter looked at Stan, as if it meant that I finally got a question, so you should say a few more words anyway.
"I remember that I once said that it is a stupid thing not to let the person who scored a hat-trick in the AFC Champions League final play. So, let me ask you, do you think I am stupid?"
Everyone laughed, obviously Stan's meaning was very clear, but many people thought in their hearts: "Li Qiao is too good at the backstage".
"The next number is 67, I will choose a bigger number",
"Coach Stan, what is your style of play after you took office? Will you copy Guangzhou Tianbao's style of play?"
"Certainly not. Every team is different. I will formulate the most reasonable tactics based on my next observation of the team. Again, let's watch the game then."
"The next number 108, I like Water Margin",
Everyone was having fun again. Stan's tricks from time to time really made the atmosphere of the press conference a lot easier. It seems that the reporters responsible for reporting on the Chinese national team will not be bored in the near future.
"Coach Stan may be too early to ask this question, what is your coaching goal?"
"Your question is very good, my goal is to go to Brazil."
Stan's words are very big. If it weren't for Stan's brilliant record in the club, everyone would even think he was bragging, because even if he made it to the top 10, there are Australia, South Korea, Japan, Iran and other strong teams waiting for the Chinese team. It is indeed too difficult to enter the World Cup.
Because judging from the tone of the Football Association, their original words are "leading the Chinese national team to compete in the World Cup qualifiers", that is, as long as they enter the top 10, the Football Association is basically satisfied. What you need to know is that in the past two World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team did not reach the top 10.
"What if the goal is not achieved"?The reporter asked.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became embarrassing. How could anyone ask such a sharp question for the first time? Could it be that Stan will dismiss get out of class immediately after losing to Iraq?
But Stan still smiled. He looked at the person in charge of the Football Association, looked at the reporter friends below, and said: "If it doesn't happen, then I won't get a penny of salary."
This is earth-shattering news, because this item was not written into the contract at all, and it was proposed by Stan himself, but the Football Association considers such a big country, so it can’t be like this, and there is no goal in the world that will not pay the coach if the goal is not achieved.
But at this time, Stan said these words in front of hundreds of reporters and live broadcasts across the country, which means that it is more effective than writing them into the contract.
"Are you sure?" The reporter's voice visibly trembled a little. He was afraid that he might have caused trouble, or that Coach Stan had spoken out in anger.
"I'm sure," Stan said firmly.
Stan looked at his watch, felt that it was almost there, and asked, "Any more questions?"
Having said all of this, what else could be wrong?Everyone thinks that Stan is really a character, or the same sentence, let's watch the game then.
*****
Back at the hotel, Stan immediately called his video analyst "Rock". When the phone came "beep, beep, beep", Stan suddenly remembered that he had just given the coaching team a holiday today, but sometimes Stan was a little unreasonable about work.
After a few minutes of waiting, the call finally connects, and Stan hears loud "heavy metal" music that Rock is presumably playing in a nightclub.
"Locke",
"Stan",
"have time"?
"Isn't it a holiday now?"
"Yes, but I need your help temporarily",
Locke doesn't want to continue the conversation, knowing that the domineering Stan will eventually deprive him of his vacation.
But Locke still said helplessly: "What's the matter?"
"I want all the video materials of the Chinese team in the past 5 years. After you deal with it, give it to me the day after tomorrow."
"What should you do if you meet such a boss? You can only think that you are unlucky," Locke thought.
Before Locke could answer, Stan hung up the phone.
After finishing the video data, I still need player data, turn on the computer, connect to "one`football" (a well-known football game database software), and start searching for all the personnel data of the Chinese national team in the past 5 years.
Looking at it, a person came into Stan's sight. His name is Wei Xiao, he is 22 years old, 185cm tall, and he is currently playing for Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League as a central defender.
Stan knows that "Tottenham Hotspur" is a strong team in the Premier League, whether they play for Tottenham Hotspur as the main force or not, at least they must have strength.
Stan clicked the mouse on the "National Team" column and found that this kid Camacho was selected for the Chinese national team, but he was a substitute and had no playing experience. Stein wondered why Camacho didn't use him.
The "one`football" software has a disadvantage, that is, the photos of the players are not complete. Stan doesn't know what Wei Xiao looks like, so he opens the search engine and enters "Tottenham Wei Xiao". When Stan sees Wei Xiao's photo, he begins to understand why Camacho doesn't use him.
Many people don't like Chinese football, I understand, but you must know that in the 90s, when "Captain Tsubasa" was full of hype, Japanese football was not as good as Chinese football, but now they have their own Ozora wing, I think Chinese football will definitely have our "Li Qiao"
