"What is the situation in China now?"
Sitting in the office of China City training center in Madrid, through computer video, he contacted Xiang Tianming who was far away in Beijing and asked about the current situation of the national team.
As soon as Xiang Tianming heard Gao Han''s inquiry, his face immediately showed a helpless expression of bitter smile.
"The situation is very chaotic and there are many problems, both inside and outside."
After hearing this, Gao Han also showed a dignified look. Since the Asian Cup, Gao Han has not had too much contact with the Football Association. Even if he has, he has never involved the national team, which seems to have become a sensitive word, and the connection between Peilan and Gao Han has also been interrupted.
Some media believe that this is because pelan and the football association are intentionally or unintentionally playing down the influence of the high cold on the national team. The reason is that the voice of domestic fans calling for the high cold to take over is too loud, especially after the East Asia Cup. This voice is more and more obvious, and even many international players have revealed the same expectation in private.
Because of this, Gao Han never took the initiative to contact the football association and the national team, and the game was only broadcast live on TV, so he had no idea about the situation of the national team.
"The incident happened after the East Asia Cup against South Korea. At that time, the team had just lost and was going to play North Korea two days later. According to the feedback from the national team, pelan went to the bar after the rest of the team for entertainment. But many of my media friends said that pelan went to the bar more than once."
"The football association was very angry about this. It held six meetings before and after the meeting to communicate with each other, clarified many times and played down the matter intentionally or unintentionally. After that, it defeated North Korea 2-0 and drew with Japan 1-1, so the matter was gradually calmed down."
Gao Han nodded slightly. The event of going to the bar happened during the East Asia Cup. It was really embarrassing. Gao Han also saw the photos published at that time. There were several young women around Peilan, which caused more controversy.
Although it''s pelan''s private life, it should be a little restrained during the cup.
"According to the news I got, after the Asian Cup, pelan''s position has been consolidated, and his position in the eyes of domestic fans has also been greatly improved. He was even once held up in the altar and respected by people. The East Asia Cup was originally regarded as an insignificant event, but before the game, pelan said that he would win the championship in a high profile, but the result is..."
"Not only that, it is said that after losing to the South Korean team, pelan once adopted punitive training for the players, which made the players in the team very dissatisfied," he continued with a sigh
"As you know, the East Asia Cup is in early August. It''s not the national team match day arranged by FIFA. It''s also the intensive stage of the league. Originally, many people called on the national team to play as a substitute team. By the way, they inspected the bench team. But in the end, pelan played as the main force, just for his slogan of winning the championship before the match."
"The international players are paid by the club. If the player is injured, the football association does not compensate the club according to the international practice. The club is also very dissatisfied with the international players participating in the training of the national team in this case. If they are injured again..."
Alpine heard here, the heart is also secretly a sigh.
There have been problems between the club and the national team over the years.
Not to mention China, even in European football, it was not until a few years ago that the compensation system was formulated. However, it obviously did not work in China. I am afraid no club dares to ask the Football Association for compensation.
If in European football, dare to propose to transfer international players in August, the club will basically refuse.
As for the international players, they are really in a dilemma.
The slogan of patriotism is quite natural, but they are paid a high salary by the club. If they are injured in the training and competition of the national team, which leads to the loss of the club, what is the account? What do they do when they come back to the club?
Combined with the news provided to Tianming, Gaohan can fully imagine the current situation faced by the national football team.
To put it bluntly, some of pelan''s actions have been strongly resisted by the players, especially the punitive training after losing, which is unnecessary and will only increase the anger and dissatisfaction of the players.
"To tell you the truth, after the Asian Cup, pelan and before the Asian Cup, it''s like two people Xiang Tianming sighed and shook his head. "Of course, it''s not kind to blame pelan for all the problems. The problems of the football association and the players are also not small. To some extent, the internal and external contradictions have been intensified."
Alpine heart is also sad, the Football Association, the national football team and the international players have a long history of problems, pelan''s current situation also has his own problems and responsibilities, can only say, as the head coach, his ability is just like now.
Apart from other things, his attitude towards the cold, before and after the Asian Cup is two completely different faces.
"And now?" Gao Han asked again.
"Now the football association and the national team are discussing the home game against Hong Kong in September. It is said that pelan asked to put it in Shenzhen in order to go to Maldives a few hours earlier after playing Hong Kong. However, the football association hopes to put it in the north. After all, it is no different to put it in Shenzhen than Hong Kong at home. There are some contradictions between the two sides."
Gao Han laughs bitterly. He really doesn''t know what kind of expression to give.
"However, according to the information I got, although there is a lot of voice outside asking for pelan to leave class, there is still support for him within the Football Association. After all, the East Asia Cup is not important, as long as he plays well in the World Cup qualifier, not to mention that pelan is carefully selected by the football association and will not be so easy to leave class."
After hearing the news, Gao Han agreed with me. It''s too far from the mark to leave the class at any time.
It''s only one round in the World Cup qualifier, and it''s still a 6-0 away win. But now it''s a mess. People who don''t know think the national team is hopeless.
He really does not know what causes the national team to fall to the present situation, but it is definitely not a unilateral responsibility, it should be the result of the joint efforts of all parties.
"Now the domestic is also a bleak, but the voice calling on you to come out to coach is also growing
The corner of Gao Han''s mouth took out and began to smile bitterly.
Coach the national team?
Of course, he is willing and has been preparing for a long time, but he will not take the initiative, not only because of his position and influence, but also because he will not fall in front of the FA.
Sometimes, if you are too positive, you lose the initiative.

Time quietly entered late August.
After playing the two big cups before the season, the La Liga League also officially ignited the new season.
In the first round of the league, Chinatown challenged Athletic Bilbao away from home, and both sides were hard to break away. But in the end, Chinatown defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-0 with the goals of morata and Azar in the second half.
Zidane''s team made a good start to the new season.
However, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid both won at home. Barcelona beat wigoselta 2-1, Atletico Madrid beat Las Palmas 1-0, but Real Madrid was beaten by Sporting Gijon 0-0 away.
Ancelotti''s La Liga debut suffered the first blow.
A week later, Chinatown returned to their home court, beating Malaga 2-0 at home and scoring three points again.
Real Madrid beat Real Betis 5-0 at home and won a big win in the new season. Atletico Madrid won Sevilla 3-0 away. Barcelona also beat Las Palmas away.
After the two rounds of La Liga, in addition to Real Madrid, the other three top teams occupy the top of La Liga with two consecutive wins, but it is Ivar who occupies the leading position in the league. This small team leads the table with five goals in two games and one goal lost.
After two rounds in La Liga, the group stage draw and annual awards of the Champions League have been announced one after another.
China City in the new season''s Champions League group stage, draw the arsenal, Olympiacos and Dinamo Zagreb these three teams, including Dinamo Zagreb team there are two Chinese city players, Kovacic and halilovic.
Among the awards of the year, Azar beat Messi and was elected player of the year, which undoubtedly accumulated some popularity for the FIFA golden ball award six months later. The Belgian international was also excited to thank coach Zinedine Zidane and China city.
As for the draw in the group stage of the Champions League, Chinatown''s luck can only be regarded as average. After all, it''s a tradition for the Champions League to have two strong and two weak teams. Chinatown will try its best to compete with Arsenal for the first place in the group. Cantarello said in an interview with the media that as long as the team plays normally, there is still a lot of hope.

When the European League is suspended and the national team has two weeks to play, the national football team is also in the focus of the World Cup qualifiers.
The first home game was finally arranged in Shenzhen, which caused great controversy in China. Pelan and the national team explained that they hoped to shorten the trip to Maldives, so that the players could get a few more hours of rest.
Unexpectedly, when the football association decided to put the home court in Shenzhen, the Maldives suddenly heard that, in view of the serious impact on the turf of Maldives, Maldives chose to put the home court in Shenyang, China after negotiation with the Football Association, while the Football Association exempted Maldives from a series of expenses, such as venue rental, security fees and television signal production.
In this way, the national football team put its home stadium in Shenzhen, instead, it added a few hours of travel, which once again triggered protests from domestic fans.
To everyone''s surprise, in Shenzhen, the national football team even drew with Hong Kong, China.
This caused a great protest from all the fans in the country.
What''s more unacceptable is that Qatar''s 15-0 home victory over Bhutan made the national football team encounter an embarrassing situation in the second round of the last 40, and the platoon arrangement of coach Perrin was also strongly questioned.
Even after the game, pelan told the media that the team controlled the game and the main reason why they didn''t score was bad luck. The goalkeeper of the other side also played very well. He was satisfied that the team only got one point.
However, the domestic fans are furious, and the call for pelan to leave class is all-round. The fans are in a turbulent mood.
If we say that in the first round of the group match against Bhutan, the away performance was not good, but in the end, we saved the situation in the second half, and finally defeated our opponent 6-0, then this game against Hong Kong will not be satisfactory, because in the competition for the first place in the group match, the national football team has begun to lag behind Kartar, who is the leader of two wins in a row and has won 16 net goals.
Whether in the media or on the Internet, there are more and more calls for taking over the national team.
"It''s still time to change the commander!"
