I'm ready to get rid of my tears.
Now, all eyes are on the possibility of success. Jeonbuk Hyundai has a clear goal after transforming into "big name" Gus Foyet. It aims to get rid of the stigma of being on the verge of a demotion and make a splendid comeback in the 2025 season.
It is true that Jeonbuk's outlook for the new season is not as bright as it is.
In 38 matches this season, Jeonbuk had just 10 wins (12 draws and 16 losses). It scored 49 points but allowed 59 runs. In terms of average score per match, it scored 1.29 goals while conceding 1.55 goals. The traditional team color of "Dakgong" has disappeared, and the defense issue has become more serious. Amid this development, veteran wingback Kim Jin-soo is reported to be moving to FC Seoul soon, while Sports Chosun exclusive reports on Dec. 19 are reported.
Jeonbuk's problems in 2024 were complex.
However, under Petrescu's system, Jeonbuk's tactics drifted without a clear color. It failed to make use of the traditional bat, and the defense continued to be sloppy. After a slump, he eventually broke up with Petrescu and switched to an acting system, but there was no rebound. Most of the evaluations were that not only did they lack response to the tactics, but they also failed to raise the team spirit.
Jeonbuk, which broke up with former coach Kim Doo-hyun, brought in Foye, not the domestic coach, as the next head coach, because it is intended to renew this atmosphere. Having built his career steadily while serving as a head coach and coach in England, and experienced various soccer while experiencing leagues in Greece, Spain and Uruguay, we have expectations that he will be able to solidify the faded color of Jeonbuk again. In addition to Foye, Jeonbuk's presence of head coach Mauricio Tariko, as well as the son and analysis coach Diego, can be interpreted to mean that it fully supports coloring.
Foye will officially start his career as Jeonbuk coach with an inauguration press conference in Jeonju on March 30. He will lead the team to depart for Thailand via Incheon International Airport on March 2, and then conduct winter training sessions in Hua Hin and Bangkok.
Jeonbuk will play its first match of the round of 16 strongest teams in the Asian Champions League 2 against Port FC, which will take place at BG Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Feb. 13 (Korea time). The team should take 40 days or so to figure out its teams and establish basic tactics before the match. It is hard to say that the time given is by no means large.
However, he has mounting pressure to display performance in a short period of time. Expectations are high for Jeonbuk, which has crumpled up its pride while surviving the promotion and playoffs.
What Foye will focus on is strengthening teamwork and teamwork. In order to overcome the tactical problems revealed last season and lack of stability in offense and defense, elevating the team spirit is inevitably the first goal. To this end, chances are high that the team will start by redefining the culture of its players, focusing on communication during the winter training period. Experience gained by coaching a number of teams will become an asset. In the process, how much the players sympathize with Foye's communication methods and philosophy will likely accelerate his success.
The key is how much Jeonbuk supports Foye in the ongoing transfer market.
Many rumors are circulating, but Jeonbuk has no concrete reinforcement. If the focus has been on the appointment of Foye, it is now necessary to select players who match the tactical color pursued by the new coach while supplementing the problems revealed last season. 먹튀검증
"It was not an easy decision because there were many good coaches at home and abroad. We made the decision after a lot of consideration considering both the current situation and the mid- to long-term perspective of the team," said Lee Do-hyun after the appointment of Foyet. "We put high empathy and communication skills for the club's vision and philosophy as the most important criteria for appointment, and we were impressed and trusted by Foyet's clear direction for soccer and his passion for the team."
In the end, Jeonbuk's focus is on rebuilding the team from a mid- to long-term perspective. For Foye, the team should not only produce results in a short period of time, but also find promising young players and replace the generation that was deemed to have fallen short of expectations. Success or failure of Jeonbuk will depend on how much investment it makes and how patient it is to display in the process.
Fan spirit can also be an important key to Foye's success. This is Jeonbuk's fandom, which collapsed due to lackluster performance and poor performance during the last season. However, it was also the Jeonbuk's fandom that sent out loudest cheers to the pitch at a time when the coach was dominating the K-League. It is also noteworthy how attractive Foye's soccer, which will be established through winter training, will be to such fans in Jeonbuk.
