Luneng's ability to "turn over" the head coach contributed.

The team performed well, thanks to two coaches, Anthich and Zhang Wailong.

In the opening stage of the Super League in the new season, Luneng Taishan led the standings with four consecutive victories, and Qingdao Zhongneng ranked in the top three with three wins 1 draw. Qi Fawei, the Qilu brothers, is an unprecedented sight since their professionalization. From "Double Bear" to "Double Hero", Luneng and Zhongneng only spent one winter. Why did they sweep away the gloom of relegation last year, and what factors helped them successfully turn over from the trough?

A.

There is a saying in Bole's achievements that every soldier will make a nest, which is not only applicable to the battlefield, but also common on the football field.

The transformation of Luneng and Zhongneng has fundamentally found a suitable head coach. In the 20 12 season, the arrival of Ten Cake and the departure of Zhang Wailong made the Qilu brothers lose their discipline. The youth storm of the former gave Luneng Atai Mountain a passion, but the one-size-fits-all approach forced the morale of the army to chaos. Young people are under great pressure, and changing their lineups frequently makes people panic. More importantly, Ten Cake endlessly blamed the players, shirked responsibility and undermined the cohesion of the team. With these reasons, Wu Jingui acted as a "fire fighter".

After Zhang Wailong left, his ambition to qualify for the AFC Champions League became the "laughing stock" of the league. Last season, Yang Weijian replaced Baka as executive head coach. Zhongneng explained that he was "unfamiliar with the team and lacked communication with the players." At the same time, the life of Koreans in Albin is also miserable. They led the team for four rounds and announced their resignation only 1 15 days after taking office. Zhang Wailong's slogan of "leading Albin to win the championship in three years" also went up in smoke. The frustrated Zhongneng and Zhang Wailong "held hands" for the second time. A month later, Zhang Wailong reappeared his magic and dropped Zhongneng from the bottom of the list.

"Zhang Wailong's 7-second theory is not suitable for Albin, but it is very effective for middle energy. Zhang Wailong pays attention to the speed of counter-attack, while players in Zhongneng are just not good at controlling the ball. The characteristics of the two are very unified. " A Qingdao colleague who is very familiar with the team analyzed this. Antihi's success lies in his mind-reading skills that ordinary people don't have. Unlike Rutten Carter's overbearing and rigid style, Anthich's "smile theory" allows players to fully enjoy the happiness brought by football. "He has always stressed that everyone is equal. This is not empty talk. Everyone can really feel the coach's respect and affirmation for the players. This effect is far greater than tactics. " Wang Yongpo said.

B.

The gesture changed to "Welcome Anthich home". This is the slogan played by Luneng Club when Antialai worked economically. At first glance, it's a bit funny. There is no origin between the two sides, so there is no word "home".

Facts have proved that Antihi really regards Jinan as his second hometown. Look at Luneng again. It has first-class hardware facilities, a mature reserve echelon, and the first team has the best players of the same age in China, which provides a platform for An Shuai who is used to the world. He is similar to Tuba, and only the champion deserves his own team.

It must be pointed out that the attitude of the new collective leadership is also changing. Talking less and doing more is the key word of Liu Yu, general manager of Luneng. The setbacks in these two years have completely lost Luneng's noble temperament, especially his self-confidence. From a high-level point of view, the success or failure of a time cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Building a century-old club needs the support of achievements, but it is more important to standardize the mature operation mode, learn the business philosophy of European elite clubs, and make efforts in club construction, personnel structure, reward system and many other fields, instead of flaunting yourself with previous achievements, which is more pragmatic. The change of attitude ensures a good competition mechanism within the team, and also makes fans love their team more.

In terms of personnel structure, echelon construction and club details, Zhongneng can't compare with Luneng. The new season has played so brilliantly so far, in addition to the self-confidence established by Zhang Wailong to the team, there is also the accurate grasp of the positioning of Zhongneng Club. Due to the close strength of the teams in the Super League, China has almost no advantage in facing any opponent. Because there is no money, the amount of money that can be awarded in the lottery is also very small. They no longer have illusions, but attack their opponents step by step, while the attitude of the weak is just the opposite.

C.

Luneng's four-game winning streak is the embodiment of strength, but there are also many objective factors that make it better.

According to the original schedule, Luneng played Albin away in the first round. In view of the freezing weather in Northeast China in March, Luneng and Albin reached a mutual understanding between home and away. You know, everything is difficult at the beginning, especially away from home. In the next three consecutive victories, Luneng's only away game coincided with Guangzhou R&F, which was in poor condition. Judging from the confrontation record and overall strength, Luneng still has a great chance of winning against other opponents except Albin. More importantly, it is difficult for Kelvin Cui and Han Peng to save themselves at the critical moment.

On the other hand, Guangzhou Evergrande, Beijing Guoan, Jiangsu Shuntian and Guizhou Renhe. The opening of the league is not only distracted by the AFC Champions League, but also has many disadvantages in the schedule. The first four rounds met in advance one after another, which led to physical and mental exhaustion in the case of dual-track operations. Coupled with the face-to-face contest, this also provides Luneng with the opportunity to lead the standings.

It is worth noting that since the second round, Zhongneng has continued the track that Luneng has traveled. In other words, every time Luneng finishes playing a team, Zhongneng will meet this opponent. A football player once joked, "Luneng is like a striker. After all, any team will suffer some torture when they meet Luneng. In the end, once you lose, you will suffer a double blow, and Zhongneng will hide behind his big brother and take the opportunity to clean up the battlefield. "

It is a blessing for both sides that Qilu brothers "run wildly" in the standings. However, if we can't take a correct position and see the situation clearly, the crisis may break out at any time. After all, for Luneng and Zhongneng, the severe test is yet to come. Only when we are strong can we convince everyone.
