* Two options for choosing the head coach of the national team

On February 22, 17/23 members of the Executive Committee (EC) sent ballots to the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) to give their opinions on the position of VFF General Secretary as requested by VFF.

In this submission, VFF has two nominations: 1. Mr. Ngo Le Bang. 2. Mr. Phan Anh Tu.

The members of the Executive Committee can choose one of two options or can nominate a third person if they want. However, most members of the VFF Executive Committee were quite hesitant when asked about the options for the position of VFF General Secretary.

The Brunei International Tournament - Hassanal Bolkiah Cup 2012 took place from February 24 to March 9 with the participation of ten teams in the region and divided into two groups. Group A consists ofSingapore,Myanmar,Philippines,Indonesiaand Laos. The U-19 Vietnam team is in group B and will meetMalaysia(25-2), Cambodia (27-2),Brunei(29-2) and EastTimor(3-3).

Specifically, Mr. Pham Phu Hoa - Deputy General Director of VPF - said: "VFF only proposed two options: Mr. Tu and Mr. Bang. Information from VFF also said that Mr. Tu refused. On the other hand, Mr. Tu is a member of the Executive Committee, and according to regulations, the general secretary cannot be a member of the Executive Committee. So there is only one option left, Mr. Ngo Le Bang, so I need more time to think and give my opinion."

Talk toYouth,Mr. Phan Anh Tu said he had refused when nominated.

Speaking to the press, Mr. Nguyen Trong Hy, President of VFF, said that some other candidates such as Mr. Duong Nghiep Khoi (VFF Deputy General Secretary) and Mr. Pham Ngoc Vien (Vice President in charge of professional affairs) were also nominated for the position of General Secretary. However, Mr. Hy said that the selection of who and how must be based on the opinions of the Executive Committee members and the meeting on February 28.

Mr. Hy also said that in this meeting, the VFF Standing Committee will discuss two options for choosing a head coach for the Vietnam national team as follows: 1- Immediately choose coach Mai Duc Chung for the position of head coach of the Vietnam national team.

2- There will be a head coach for two periods. In the second option, coach Mai Duc Chung will temporarily take charge of the Vietnam team from May to the end of August in friendly matches. Then, three months before the AFF Suzuki Cup 2012, Mr. Chung will probably continue to be the head coach with the help of young coaches such as Phan Thanh Hung and Nguyen Huu Thang.

Explaining the possibility of having a head coach for two phases, Mr. Hy explained: “Coaches Phan Thanh Hung, Nguyen Huu Thang... said they can only spend time with the Vietnam team in September after the 2012 National Championship ends. Therefore, choosing a head coach for two phases will ensure that the Vietnam team is best prepared for the 2012 AFF Suzuki Cup. However, this is only one of the options and will be discussed carefully at the executive committee meeting.”

On February 22, Coach Mai Duc Chung and the U-19 Vietnam team left forBruneiattend international tournamentBrunei- Hassanal Bolkiah Cup 2012. Responding to the possibility of leading the Vietnamese team, Mr. Chung said that for now he is only focusing on helping the U-19 Vietnamese team compete well in the above tournament and then consider the next steps.

Mr. Chung added: “I have not received any decision from VFF yet so it is too early to answer. Furthermore, on March 17, I will go toSlovakialearn football for a month at MSK Zilina Club”.
