Creativity in repeating mistakes

We always miss the right diagnosis, and unfortunately, we take decisions in the wrong way, which is what happens with football departments in national teams and clubs, so we find the error is repeated and continues, but there is “creativity” in repeating the mistake, but in different ways.

With regard to the work of the “previous” national teams’ committee, its tasks and the process of evaluating the coach’s work, its decisions were not correct, because the evaluation was not correct. The coach insisted on repeating the same method, and with the same tools, from the players implementing his plans.

If the results are positive, then the committee, the sports street, and the media have no right to interfere in the coach’s work, but the loss of one opportunity after another angered everyone from the Football Association, the coach and the players, and unfortunately we hear that those present are the best in our league, which confirms that the administrative thought is very weak It is unfair that the fate of the Emirates football is mortgaged to this thought, and they do not know that there are those who need an opportunity to prove existence, but unfortunately the coach manages the administration and the player manages the coach and management, so the player has become the leader in the system, while the “media and the sports street” do not understand anything. .

The resignation of the head and members of the “previous” national teams committee, and its acceptance may not achieve much, in light of the continuation of the main executors (the coach and the players) without account or punishment, and the problem is that decisions are personal and not institutional, meaning they change with the change of people, then we discover that the next does not find room Except to work with the same methodology or to invent a personal ijtihad that can be right or wrong, and thus becomes the weakest link because he needs to convince the system to work according to his plans.

Are there restrictions in the coach's contract?

Are there criteria that enable the committee to evaluate the player’s performance and hold him accountable before rewarding him?

Were the privileges defined for those who have the honor to represent the name of the Emirates in regional and international forums?!

Gentlemen, honorable ones, changing names and the game of chairs is the basis of the error. Although the UAE celebrates its fiftieth year of construction, stability and excellence, sports thought is still going back despite the unlimited support. The football players receive large sums, but the actual returns are very weak, and they may not They deserve 5% of what they get.

With my respect to them, they will not be better than the minister, the doctor, the engineer, the soldier...and others, and certainly the club administrations are a partner in the competition for a commodity whose consumption is local only in light of the disappointing results of our clubs in Asia.

Changing names and a game of chairs are the basis of the error.
