The world of Chinese style creates a prosperous era for girl groups

Xia Haoyang and the top management of the Guoan Club came to the restaurant at the Hongta Base, booked a private room, ordered some stir-fried dishes, and then Executive President Ma provided a list of player positions proposed by the head coach.

"According to the request of the Italian head coach Mr. Suarez, he believes that the Guoan team currently needs to introduce a goalkeeper, a full-back and two midfielders." Mr. Ma said very seriously.

Xia Haoyang nodded slightly. There were only player positions on the paper, but no specific player candidates. It was obvious that they had adapted to the talent selection method that Xia Haoyang required.

When Xia Haoyang raised his head and looked at the several senior Guoan officials sitting at the same table, everyone seemed to have a strange expression.

"Do you have any different opinions?" Xia Haoyang asked directly.

When Mr. Ma heard Xia Haoyang's question, he coughed, took a deep breath, and said with a serious expression: "Mr. Xia, our club's technical team does have different opinions after analyzing the strength of the first team, and they are far different from the head coach's opinion."

"Oh, is there such a thing? What does our technical team think?" Xia Haoyang was very curious.

The technical evaluation team within the Guoan team is basically composed of former players who have retired and are now playing for the club, such as Guoan Deputy General Manager Zhang Lu, first-team leader and former national goalkeeper Fu Bin, first-team assistant coach Tao Wei, youth team head coach Sui Dongliang, former international Xie Feng and other veterans.

"The list of first-team additions provided by our technical team is: buy a central defender and replace the current foreign central defender; replace the current foreign striker and add a midfielder sweeper."

"That means replacing two foreign players and purchasing a central defender and a midfielder?" Xia Haoyang looked at the second list in his hand.

"Yes."

"Don't we need to buy goalkeepers and full-backs?" Xia Haoyang compared the two lists, feeling the difference between them.

"The current main goalkeeper Hou Sen was trained by our Guoan Football Club since he was a child. He has an important position in the club and has played for the U2004 team since 15, and has been doing so for more than 20 years. Hou Sen's stable and outstanding performance over the years has made him one of the representatives of this city. Although he was injured for two months this year, he is still able to play as a main player after returning from injury. No matter how you look at it, there will be no problem for him to be the main goalkeeper in the next two seasons. The club has great confidence in him."

Xia Haoyang also said "hmm" when he heard the introduction.

"As for the full-backs, domestic players such as Li Lei in the team are also pretty good, and they were once international players. Although they are now over 30 years old, their physical condition is still good. They have also played for the team for many years and play an important role in the team."

Xia Haoyang understood that the full-backs and the main goalkeeper were both veterans of the team who had made great contributions for many years. If such players were used well and had feelings and were loyal to the team, they would be like a treasure in the team and could unite the newcomers and young people of the team and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. However, there would also be such veterans who, relying on their influence in the club, would bully some new players or undermine the head coach, thus causing the team to become unbalanced and lose combat effectiveness.

Xia Haoyang had never been with these players, so he couldn't tell for a moment whether these two veteran players, whom the head coach requested to be replaced and the club's top management recommended to keep, were the cancer of the team or the team's old Lian Po.

"As for the two foreign players, the central defender and the foreign striker, their performance this season has been unsatisfactory, with various mistakes. Our expert group strongly recommends buying back Bakambu, the former meritorious foreign player who is now in the Spanish Betis team. He has almost no chance to play in Betis now. He doesn't need a transfer fee at over 30, but he is more than enough to play in the Chinese Super League. As for the foreign central defender Endriu, it is really a disaster. He looks tall and has a good figure, but in fact, the performance of the defense this year, especially the air defense, is not as good as in previous seasons."

"Mr. Xia, here is a statistic of the club's goals scored and conceded in the past five years. You can compare it." Mr. Ma also provided some technical information.

"Okay, I'll take a look."

At this time, coach Suarez also came to the private room accompanied by an interpreter and others.

It took several minutes for everyone to exchange greetings and introductions.

"Mr. Xia, I need to introduce this person to you. He is Mr. Fu Hao, a veteran of Guoan. He joined Guoan as a translator during the Pacheco era and has been with the club for more than 20 years. He is the longest-serving staff member in our current team. Mr. Fu is also considered to be the best Portuguese translator in Chinese football. He is mainly responsible for the translation work of Spanish and Portuguese-speaking foreign players." President Ma was a little excited when he introduced him.

Upon hearing this, Xia Haoyang stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with the other party, "Thank you Mr. Fu Hao for your contribution to the team over the years."

"Mr. Xia, you're too polite. I'm just trying to make a living." Although Fu Hao is middle-aged, he seems to be rather shy and not a very strong or proactive person.

As for coach Suarez's translator Jiang Xiaojun, he is of course also an old Guoan man. He has been working for Guoan since the era of Joric and Old Peter, and has also been working for the team for more than 20 years. He is mainly the translator of Serbian and English within the team. Xia Haoyang has dealt with Mr. Jiang many times.

After everyone had lunch, coach Suarez, through translator Jiang Xiaojun, once again elaborated on the player reinforcements for Guoan's first team next season, which meant that they needed to purchase a goalkeeper, a full-back and two midfielders.

The middle and senior leaders of Guoan did not answer, but looked at Xia Haoyang.

Judging from the attitudes of both sides, it seems that Guoan’s middle and senior leaders have conflicts with head coach Suarez, and the two sides are not friendly.

Xia Haoyang spoke directly, "I just asked other people in the club, and they said that goalkeeper Hou Sen has the ability to continue to play for the club. I also know that the Chinese league does not allow the use of foreign goalkeepers, so among the current domestic goalkeepers, I wonder who Mr. Suarez prefers to take over the current main goalkeeper?"

When the translator translated Xia Haoyang's words to the coach, the coach seemed a little surprised, and then started talking quickly.

Mr. Jiang translated it into: The club only asked me to provide the position that the team needs to replace, and I am not allowed to provide candidates, so I have not thought about who can replace the current goalkeeper. This is your club's business. Mr. Hou Sen is the main goalkeeper of the first team. He is a bit old and his physical condition is not stable. He has been absent for a long time this season. It is also because of his absence that the club's performance has been affected. I don't want to be affected in the same way next season. After all, I am responsible for the results. "

It can be seen that head coach Suarez was a little excited and said a lot like a machine gun.
