flyboy, in a lot of korean internet postings i see a lot of koreans get arrogant and make fun of chinese football. this is probably a big reason why a lot of chinese football fans dont like korean football. thats just my opinion. but i really belieive that chinese fans put too much pressuremon their players to perform. a simple google search can find entire lists of jokes that chinese fans make about their own team.
but football takes a long time to develope. it is like planting a fruit tree. Japan planted this tree a long time ago knowing that sacrifice was a neccessary investment for future soccer. Japanese mananger Okada was villified by his countrymen for steadfastly following JFA's goal to turn japanese football like spanish tikki takka football. Japan wasnt ready for it then and Okada took the blame. But we see their work today. The south korean super star jisung park of manchester united is a product of japanese football. he was rejected by korean teams, but japan's kyoto purple sanga gave him a chance. the rest is history. the purple sanga by the way also produced japanese national team superstars like mitsui.
The rise of chinese football parallel the rise of china's economic power since the reign of chairman Deng. But football takes a long time to develope. I think a lot of chinese people look at china's superb performance in the olympics and say, " why are the football players so bad?". a national team is just the tip of the iceberg. the true team includes managers, trainers, youth deveopers, etc. Chona's football infrastructure and football tradition will take time to develope.
But it doesnt help when fans start sending hate mails to their own team members.
i watched that game when china beat korea 3:0. they played beautifully. most korean posters i saw said something like, "now they can get over their complex". this will sound arrogant to you and is probably infuriating. but there is a lot of truth in it too. now chinese team members wont feel so much pressure from the fans.
when i see chinese football, i see korean football few years back. this isnt surprising. Koreans and Chinese are virtually identical in physical make up. culture is very similar as well as diet. many korean managers work in CSL as well as players. I think China's football will inevitably grow and i think that is common sense. But how fast it will grow depends on how much Chinese people will want it.
That being said, i think i can understand why you wouldnt like either korean or chinese football... but i will save that for next posting...
its my dream to travel with Indian Football Team whenever they enter in FIFA WC
