WHAT IS SUITABLE FACTOR?
Fit in the basic concept, meaning many separate elements but when put together, fit together smoothly, perfectly. But in the world of football in general and choosing a head coach of a national team in particular, the category is very broad.
The first factor mentioned is probably finance. In theory, everyone wants the Vietnamese team to have a world-class coach, but with the current economic potential, Vietnamese football cannot have Mourinho or Zinedine Zidane even though they are unemployed. With a salary range of 50,000 - 60,000 USD/month, we can only have a certain number of coaches and are forced to choose one of them.
Coach Park Hang-seo ( right ) is successful with Vietnamese football, but Coach Troussier is not.
The second criterion that should be mentioned is a deep and clear understanding of Southeast Asian football, especially detailed knowledge of Vietnamese football. Priority is given to names that have worked in Asia or Southeast Asia. Many Vietnamese audiences have prejudices about European or South American coaches, and cite examples of the failures of former coaches such as Edson Tavares, Dido, Falko Gotz or Letard... But in reality, in addition to coach Park Hang-seo, who is considered the most successful from Asia, foreign coaches from Europe such as the late coach Karl Weingang, Alfred Riedl or the Portuguese coach Calisto have also made huge contributions to the development of Vietnamese football. Therefore, the story of nationality and ethnicity is a factor to be taken into account, but more importantly, the level of expertise and knowledge, vision and understanding of Vietnamese football.
Coach Calisto was successful when he led the Vietnamese team to win the 2008 AFF Cup championship.
Another important factor that needs to be mentioned is the appropriate playing philosophy, because Vietnamese football is in the lowland of Asian and world football. Vietnamese players, in terms of physique and physical strength, are far behind the top players in the continent. In terms of professional criteria, most Vietnamese players are agile, skillful, have great endurance, and a strong fighting spirit. However, the basic development foundation is not uniform, a few have a stable basic technical foundation, modern football thinking such as Nguyen Filip, Ngoc Hai, Hoang Duc, Quang Hai, Van Hau... can be counted on the fingers. The remaining generations of Vietnamese football always have serious shortcomings, good in one aspect but lacking in another. That is also the reason why Coach Troussier's proactive ball control style of play has failed.
EXTREMELY DIFFICULT CHOICE
Looking back at the most glorious periods of Vietnamese football, talented coaches like Coach Park Hang-seo or Calisto all have one thing in common: the way they build a united, cohesive, highly combative team, devoted to the flag and the shirt. In other words, they have the ability to "win hearts and minds", attract the attention, respect and love of the players, and then lead the entire team to fight for a common goal.
Coach Riedl also made a special mark in Vietnam.
In addition, the focus on personnel management is also the way these coaches use it effectively. For coach Calisto, it is freedom within the framework, encouraging players to boldly develop their full potential. He himself is always actively searching for and discovering new talents. As for coach Park, assigning tasks scientifically, in detail, and meticulously to all members of the coaching staff makes this team operate smoothly like a perfect machine. From the position of advisor, the right-hand man of the head coach to the members of the coaching team, each person has a task. From warm-up, personal training, correcting the posture and position of each player, being meticulous in each penalty or counter-penalty situation of the opponent.
After coach Troussier left his post, the candidates that can be considered are: Mr. Kim Sang-sik, Kim Do-hoon (Korea); Akira Nishino (Japan); Roberto Donadoni (Italy); Mano Polking (Germany) or Luisma Hernandez (Spain). Even coaches working in the country such as coach Chu Dinh Nghiem (Hai Phong Club), Velizar Popop (Thanh Hoa team) or Kiatisak (Hanoi Police team) are also being considered.
Of course, there is still time to choose, there may be more quality candidates. But perhaps the most important issue for the scouts, specifically the VFF, is to quickly complete the selection criteria. Because having specific criteria, clear goals and directions for the Vietnam team in the new period, we can choose the right coach.
