Choi Kangxi actually did not mean that the Taishan team was dawn. This was not only reflected in the Taishan team's 0-2 loss in Dalian, but also that many things were still being cut and messy. According to media reports, the latest signing of Taishan team was actually from the instruction of a senior executive of Taishan team, and the coaching staff was unaware of it. No wonder Han Peng made such a statement after losing to Dalian. It is obvious that outsiders and leaders of experts are the biggest root cause of the series of chaos in the Taishan team this year.

It is reported that on July 18, the club suddenly announced that it would sign 28-year-old Spanish central defender Luis Lopez in a free transfer. The 1.82-meter-tall former captain Zaragoza immediately replaced Brazil's foreign aid Kazar. Germany turned to Lopez, who was worth 500,000 euros, and became the first signing for the Taishan team in the summer window. However, judging from the data of new player Lopez, he averaged 1.2 interceptions per game, which is lower than Kazar (1.5 times). What's even more strange is that this signing decision was revealed to be not a request from the coaching staff. Interim coach Han Peng and his team never proposed the need to replace foreign players, but a lightning operation promoted by a senior leader of the club against the public. After Choi Kang-hee left office, the decision-making power of foreign players was transferred from the coaching staff to technical director Eric, who was Lopez's recommended person. You taste it, you taste it carefully.

Not long ago, Taishan lost to Dalian Yingbo 0-2 away, and Han Peng missed the coaching debut to get off to a good start. After the game, when talking about foreign aid issues, some media asked: Recently, Taishan team signed Spanish new central defender Lopez. When will this foreign aid appear? In response, Han Peng revealed: "Who will the new foreign aid replace? I still have to communicate with the club." It can be seen that Han Peng has no independent decision-making power at all.

After all, the biggest problem of Taishan team is not the players or the coach, but bureaucracy kills people.
