Review Guus Hiddink's coaching resume, however, he has never been a like quiet coach, he likes to try, he loves a challenge, this character seems to be born, it is said that the little boy at the age of six Guus Hiddink wants to become a singer, later because infatuated with the taste of the farm, he dreamed of being a farmer, then he is a player, is a football coach, the magic of the coach.

Hiddink was born in the quiet town of wasteland in the Dutch province of heartland, and became a famous coach. Hiddink lived in a beautiful and ancient place by the Amstel river. In the early 1990s, Hiddink, already famous in the Netherlands, left his hometown for the first time to embark on an adventure of his life, traveling to Fenerbahce in Turkey to continue his Eindhoven legacy.


In less than a season, however, Hiddink was the underachiever of Fenerbahce, finishing fifth with 12 wins, eight draws and 10 defeats, a record for the Dutchman's first adventure, a Lacklustre record for last season's runners-up.And then three years of travel to Iberia, also because of the internal turmoil of Valencia team some high open low taste, then standing at the Mestaria stadium Hiddink must be lonely and confused, the eyes of this explorer can not see the future, memories are unstoppable surge.

2.

Memories of the mestaria stadium fireworks gradually blurred in front of hiddink, the philips stadium is echoed in the ears of the song, the 42-year-old is standing in the dugout, if the conductor, said.Under his leadership PSV eindhoven have completed the title of the Dutch league, Gullit and koeman is the superstar is known here, in the Netherlands and the cup, hiddink's team play offensive football, attack like the tide, the Dutch football concept was fully developed.But in the champions league, Hiddink demanded a steady defence and a chance to fight back. Starting with the quarter-final, the team, who scored 117 goals in the Dutch league, advanced to the final with a series of draws before finishing Benfica on penalties to top Europe.


Stuttgart card inside the stadium deafening cheers as from yesterday, treble success, however, under the cold reality, turned to leave the mestalla fireworks, tulips are in bloom in the summer, to embrace, in the summer of 1996 after the era of the three musketeers Netherlands euro under Guus Hiddink beat in the race, and is seen as the favourites, but the Dutch internal different skin color, the contradiction between the club player has wrecked all this, feeling isolated even abused by coach Guus Hiddink, Davis and Davis was removed from the Netherlands.Such a solution could not hide the Dutchman's embarrassment, but hiddink and his children returned two years later, and hiddink himself graciously welcomed davies back into the squad.


The summer in France, guus hiddink, the Dutch football, kicked off the smooth and natural and unrestrained, they have elbowed over the favourites Argentina, even with Ronaldo's Brazil game for 120 minutes, finally defeat on penalties, Brazil manager Mr Gallo exciting career, but on the other side of the Guus Hiddink has completed his mission.

Hiddink would never have imagined that the group stage sweep of South Korea would have changed the course of his life until another summer four years later.

3. Hiddink led real Madrid to the Toyoda cup between 1998 and 2002, then was sacked for his league record and failed to lead betis to a relegation miracle.Without a contract from the far east, hiddink's magic would have come to an abrupt end.

There is little to say about South Korea's performance at the 2002 World Cup, which was shaped by referees and hosts.Having suffered such a heavy defeat in the 1998 World Cup, the Korean football association (kfa) began to invite foreign coaches. They even contacted French coach Jacques jacque, but failed.


Hiddink arrived in South Korea, found that the team reflects the internal hierarchy and factions, the veteran has absolute authority, and the locker room factions.After fully understanding of Korean culture, Guus Hiddink with "the promising talents with broken inside the team strange atmosphere, the work of his hands are not strong, very mild but with dignity, he will judge the players in the league, will appear in the university student league court side, Guus Hiddink in training to strengthen physical training, the advantages of the south Korean players to an extreme.

These are the real riches hiddink will leave to south Korean football, rather than that controversial last-four result.

Since the summer of 2002, Hiddink has become a legend in south Korean football, enjoying honorary national treatment, free taxis and free flights on two airlines.All of this is still valid after he refused chung mong-chun's blank blank check and insisted on not renewing his contract.

Guus hiddink is gone, but he will always be a football totem.

4.When hiddink again in our line of sight, is another four years after the summer, the late at night on June 26, 2006, millions of fans to remember a great left-back fabio grosso and francesco totti penalty winner, after the hustle and bustle, who will remember the World Cup for the first time in the history of Australia the knockout stages of the competition, and create the miracle is still guus hiddink, is the Dutch let Mr Kerviel, viduka this batch of talented players tasted the joy of into the World Cup finals.

Two years later, Hiddink brought the same magic to Russia, where Arshavin ended his native Netherlands at the European championships. Behind this miracle lies Hiddink's deep understanding of Van Basten and Dutch football.Before the arrival of the next World Cup, Guus Hiddink and even the national team and club a burden, because personal with Abramovich, he can't refuse the invitation of the Chelsea, even when Chelsea internal chaotic, as fire coach, Guus Hiddink will not only brought to the first three league team, won the fa cup, but also the native led Chelsea to the champions league semi-finals, they could go further.

Five years later, when Chelsea were once again lost, hiddink still used his courage and responsibility to put the team back on track.

In the corridor of Hiddink's Dutch home hangs a blues shirt with the words: "to huss, my great coach and a great man, thank you and good luck -- Frank Lampard."

I think that sums up hiddink's brief time at the bridge.

5 Today, the 72 - year - old Guus Hiddink came to China, before he came to China, he had expected China's youth development situation, but when he began to work only to find that the situation here than he expected, it seems, are still bad, only a handful of players can achieve his selection standard, he even also continue to correct these children's eating habits, the world of that a moment, a 72 - year - old name handsome like a kind grandpa.

Perhaps, the courage to challenge and explore has been deeply rooted in hiddink's heart, regardless of age, regardless of the environment can not change, it is because he experienced, so no fear.Because life, in fact, is nothing more than a complex of contradictions and choices, not right or wrong, but only whether we have the courage to choose between contradictions and bear all the consequences.
