Football News: Guoan has lost 4 of the past 5 games. The team will definitely not be able to get out of the trough just by changing the coach.

, Guoan, who changed coaches, lost 1-2 to Xinpengcheng, who also changed coaches, and suffered four defeats in the past five rounds. "Football" newspaper wrote an article saying that the team will not be able to get out of the slump immediately just by changing coaches.

For Guoan, although it had withdrawn from the championship competition before, it still lost against the relegation team, and there were many problems on both offense and defense. This once again proved that the team could not immediately get out of the slump just by changing coaches.

As Setién’s first assistant, Ramiro knows better than anyone what it means for him to take over the leadership role left by his predecessor. The current Guoan coaching position is a very "butt-burning" chair for anyone. If you do well, you will at least win the FA Cup or win all the league and AFC Champions League this year; if you do poorly, it goes without saying that you will not win the FA Cup. Even if you do not perform well in the league or AFC Champions League, you will be nailed to a cross.

Therefore, Ramiro showed a strong "desire to survive" in his first game since taking office. The first is to resolutely switch to 4 defenders in the starting lineup, which also shows his attitude of "complying with public opinion and following the flow of good things". Including requiring the frontcourt attack to speed up during the game, and choosing a simple and effective 45-degree bombing if the pass in the middle cannot open the situation. This very clearly tells the outside world: the current team has undergone obvious changes from the past.

Especially when trailing 0-2 in the first half, Ramiro immediately replaced three players on the back line. This kind of speed and courage were in sharp contrast to Setien's period. It should be said that these three substitutions were very targeted. It was difficult for Fan Shuangjie and Wang Gang to guard against the opponent's arrowheads in the first half, and they both made mistakes. It was very correct to replace them with Ngadewu and He Yupeng. At the same time, replacing Jiang Wenhao with Fang Hao was also to increase the offense. If these three substitutions were made in the past, they might have been delayed for at least 15 minutes before being implemented.

It should be said that Guoan still achieved results after the substitution, especially after replacing Zhang Xizhe in the second half. Even in the face of the Shenzhen team that shrank its defense across the board, Guoan still scored a goal through clever cooperation in the frontcourt. This shows that Ramiro's adjustments in the second half still achieved results.

If Setien had not sent out a mysterious starting lineup in the AFC Champions League 2 match against Macarthur, he might still have remained as Guoan's coach. In fact, this also shows that within Guoan, or Guoan's core management, it is still very clear that the team's poor performance in the second half of the year is not just a problem with the coach. Therefore, they also know that a coaching change will not solve all problems immediately.

After Setien left, a clear requirement the club put forward for the team and Ramiro was to have a different mental outlook than in the past, and he must be energetic. It should be said that Guoan did fight until the last minute in the 34-degree high temperature weather in Zhaoqing. It was obvious that the players did not want to lose the game. However, facing the Shenzhen team that was also fighting for relegation and desperately trying to hold on to victory, Guoan could only say that it had tried its best. Although everything was changing in a positive direction, it would take time to return to the Guoan team that was undefeated in 16 rounds.

There is another difference between Ramiro and Setien. When the team lost before, Setien usually expressed that the opponent played very well, while Ramiro admitted: In fact, Guoan played worse.

For Guoan, now from a technical and tactical level, whether playing three or four defenders, it is difficult to immediately change the passing and control concept that has been practiced for a season. This is also the reason why Guoan cannot win when the ball possession rate is still significantly dominant. Besides, from a mental level, we cannot say that the players are not fighting hard, but when there is no desire to win the championship and the opponents are fighting for survival, it is still difficult for the players to show their fierceness.

Next, Guoan will face several other relegation teams in the league. How to inspire a stronger desire to win than the opponents and come up with ways to crack the opponent's defensive counterattack is a problem that the coaching staff and the club need to solve together.
