Tan Tai and Van Thanh can absolutely play together in the Vietnam national team.
The Vietnamese team will enter the 2023 Asian Cup with only 5 players who participated in the 2019 Asian Cup: Quang Hai, Van Toan, Duy Manh, Hung Dung and Ho Tan Tai. With a squad that includes many young players, it is clear that the experience of the seniors who made their mark in the UAE 4 years ago will play a very important role.
But the question is whether coach Philippe Troussier can use the above 5 players at the same time in the matches of the Vietnamese team, along with the names that were absent from the 2019 Asian Cup due to injury such as Van Thanh and Tuan Anh?
Coach Troussier expressed his emotions and intimacy during the photo and video shoot of the Vietnam National Team with the Organizing Committee of the 2023 Asian Cup - video: VFF
As in the case of the two right wingers Ho Tan Tai and Vu Van Thanh, both are very experienced, capable and each has their own strengths. In fact, this is also a concern of many fans because it would be a pity if either of these two players had to sit out.
The versatility of the players will help coach Troussier be more proactive.
The answer for the Vietnamese team may come from the Hanoi Police Club (CAHN), when they eliminate the fear of waste by cleverly using Tan Tai and Van Thanh on the field at the same time.
Coach Gong Oh-kyun may not have been successful at CAHN. But at least the Korean coach will be recognized for exploiting the potential of both players in off-field positions, with quite good results.
Vu Van Thanh was freed from the right wing to play as a left-sided striker. That is his favorite position when he has space to penetrate the center and launch powerful shots, or create assists for teammates thanks to his excellent dribbling ability.
Van Thanh can play many positions well.
Meanwhile, Mr. Gong pulled Ho Tan Tai into the center to play as an anchor midfielder, as a shield for the central defenders to prevent counter-attacks thanks to his good ability to compete and fight in the air. In particular, Mr. Gong resolved the "oversupply crisis", helping Ho Van Cuong have the opportunity to play on the right wing.
Of course, each coach has his own way of looking at and using people. But the boldness of coach Gong Oh-kyun could open up an interesting suggestion for coach Troussier in planning to face the number 1 candidate for the 2023 Asian Cup, Japan, in the opening match on January 14, and the two following matches against Indonesia (January 19) and Iraq (January 24).
The fact that Van Thanh can play at least 2 positions: right back, left forward (Tuan Hai can confidently move inside to play as a center forward) or Tan Tai can play 3 positions (right back, central midfielder, right center back) will help coach Philippe Troussier be much more proactive in his calculations for the Vietnam team.
