Today we have a really make sense thing Today is a rainy day, but I still have a great passion for my assignment, to interview the coaches from the Premier League(英超). England is the origin of the modern football, three coaches from different clubs there have popularized their advanced idea in fifteen countries. This is the second time for the Premier Skills(学转英超) to come to Shanghai. Trainees are of two types, one is Chinese sports teachers, a nd the other is young football newbies. They can promote not only football skills including reflex, ball possession and force but also English level during five or six days’ closed training. There is always hearty laughter around the field today. JJ Gao (G高俊健) and I (W王煌) had a chance to interview the chief coach from Tottenham Hotspur (特托纳姆热刺), Tony Tilbrook (TT):
W::First I want to say congratulation to you, for your club had a good rank in the last season and has qualified the UEFA champions league (欧冠).
TT::Thank you.
W::I’d like to ask you a question. Why do you come here and teach them lessons?
TT:Premier Skills is a unique project. We have a new idea called football community(足球社区).A football community can be a city, a school, and even a family. All the people can join it, no matter you are young or old, slim or fat. A football community holds regular football matches to let players join in. Professional referees, medical personnel and audiences are all the members of it. Thus, most dwellers can play football while just a few people could play it in the past. Meanwhile, dwellers are getting healthy and strong, and the city’s software and hardware are getting better. Our coming is to develop football community in Shanghai, Beijing and two other cities. We select school sports teachers and teenagers because they are the new blood of a city. We have a good time these days. They hold a great passion to the training.
W::You have been here for five days. What do you think about Chinese football?
TT:Chinese football is kind of backward in fact. No matter the World Cup or the Olympic games, China seldom plays well enough to attract people’s attention, and the result is China has few chances to show their ability to the world. I think China should do better in the internation -al and Asian competitions to increase the visibility, and then China will be known and have more chances to develop their ability. Well, it’s hard to say, for China has beaten France recently (joke).
G:You mentioned the World Cup just now, so which team do you root for?
TT:Undoubtedly Spain because my family is in Spain. There are a number of talented footballers in this national team such as Xavi, Villa and Torres. I believe they are the best.
G:The South Africa World Cup finals will take place between Spain and Netherlands at tomorrow dawn. Can you predict which team will make history?
TT:I have to admit both these two teams are strong. It will be a fierce competition between Dutch total football and Spanish 4-2-3-1 formation. No matter which team will win the game, this team will be the 8th winner and make history. But I am Spanish, so I support Spain. I wish they can win the game.
W:That’s all. We are so honored to have this chance talking with you. I expect you will come to Shanghai a third time. Thank you. Have a good time.
TT:The same to you. Bye.
G:Bye.
