“So it would be a good thing for Chinese parents to instill enthusiasm among their kids for football. It’s a great game, not only regarding the emotions behind it, but it’s also a game for young people to gain experience of working in a bigger group and work to achieve goals.”

Success is not winning the World Cup. It may be a goal in your mind but success is having a team that is improving all the time.

You need players that stand for emotion in football. Football today is a game for television.

Without a healthy team spirit you won’t get anywhere in football.

First of all, it would be great for world football to have a competitive Chinese team as China traditionally has deep relation to sports in general.

If I walked on water, my accusers would say it is because I can’t swim.

Football is my life. I guess I can’t live without it.

Being successful means good results for the national team at first in the regional competitions like the Asian Cup and keeping in mind to go for Gold at a World Cup in the future.

I hate casual shooting. Every shot is preceded by working to get open and catch and shoot under game like conditions
