The next Team China caretaker and permanent coach/2014 National Team thread

2-5 lebanon ended

 

Now a big 3-3 joke?

The last famous words? I hope they aren't.

 

The only manner to wash this is to make semifinals or final next january kangaroos home

 

FT Iraq 3 - 1 China

We qualify by the slightest of margins. A moment of magic where both China and Thailand scored.....

 

China qualifies for the AFC Asian Cup. What a relief...

 

And after Asian Cup a better Copa América than the 1999 japanese side

 

Let's see how Perrin can do with the team. I liked the intentions of the team, trying to play a short passing style, but our players were very poor today. I do think he's a step up from Camacho, but time will tell

 

If Lippi says the chinese national team hasn't the winning mentality, why he doesn't take the double charge?

 

i think perrin will do better than camacho and fu bo, he even took over the coaching in the middle of the match lol

 

I don't really rate Fu Bo. I think he's good with the players but as a coach i feel he's too lacking

 

Teeratep Winothai and Adisak Kraisorn from Thailand have done more for the Chinese national team then just about anyone else throughout this campaign except for Zhang Xizhe who had the balls to step-up and take the pen.

I'm incredibly sceptical about Perrin but at least he was willing to make changes and he did put on Zhang Xizhe who scored. I hope him all the best, he's gonna need it

 

are there any interviews from the chinese side? its ok if it is in chinese.

 

The AFC Asian Cup draw is tomorrow morning. Which teams do you guys want to see China get in their group?

 

So China is in group B with Uzbekistan, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea. North Korea should be an easy win, but the other two teams will be really tough.

 

I can see us getting two draws and a win in this group which would most likely see us advance. However given the history of us always choking when it matters, it wouldn't be too surprising if we go home with three losses. I'm excited for the Cup though, we could've gotten alot worse, advancing from this group is very doable, very much so for all 4 teams.

 

Any confirmed friendlies ?

 

interesting stuff

You guys might want to read this. Perrin looks likes he's going to try changing the entire system. Don't know if it's going to have a positive or negative impact though.

And what means whole system?

 

Well at least Perrin is taking his job seriously and doing his research on his players (unlike Camacho). I wouldn't have left out Zheng Zhi despite Perrin trying to go for a more youthful set-up because you still need experienced leaders in your team. Yes ZZ is not the long term solution to the captaincy of the team but with so many youngsters in this 50 man provisional squad having someone they trust lead them out can't be a bad thing. Personally I would have kept ZZ for a short while and phased him out while the team had settled.

 

can anyone explain the content of the first link please, its kinda difficult if u cant read mandarin.
I get, the second link is a 50 man roster...

Thank you
