Coach Lee spoke about his determination for the new season and his thoughts on taking office at the 2024 K-League Winter Training Media Camp held at the Bareve Hotel in Seogwipo, Jeju on the 5th.
Coach Lee, who led the promoted team Gwangju last season and took on the challenge of K-League 1, caused a sensation by finishing in 3rd place in the league. In particular, Coach Lee was at the center of attention as a strategist who could control the results while playing hot attacking soccer.
This year, the second year of the first division challenge, the heightened expectations for Director Lee may act as a burden, but Director Lee says he does not care.
He, who is famous for his refreshing speech, said, “Gwangju is a strong team. Now, our opponents will make a lot of effort to defeat us. “I’m really looking forward to seeing how our opponents will approach to defeat us,” he said. “I’m not sure how far we will go. “I’m really looking forward to it,” he said.
When it was pointed out that the expectations of those around him were bound to be higher than before, he said, “It’s okay. “The expectations I have for our players are greater than the expectations of those around us,” he said.
Last season, Coach Lee became a big issue by asking the opposing team's coach, "How much salary do you get?" and also saying, "I'm angry that we lost to a team that played that kind of soccer."
Director Lee said, “I am a person with many shortcomings. A lot of effort is made to fill in the shortcomings. The same goes for interviews. “I also analyzed the interview and reflected on it,” he said. “I have no intention of attacking others first.” However, if someone criticizes my soccer too much, I am ready to provoke at any time,” he said, pouring out ‘hot remarks’.
Coach Lee, who was ranked 3rd in the league last season and even participated in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League (ACL) next season, did not say anything about his goals for the new season, saying, “I haven’t shared them with the players yet.”
However, “I think that as a coach, he should ultimately aim for the championship trophy. “I am preparing with the goal of winning the championship within the next few years,” he said, revealing a bit of his big ambition. 안전 토토사이트
