Just a short time after leaving Becamex Binh Duong due to heart disease, Coach Phan Thanh Hung returned when he accepted to replace Le Huynh Duc at SHB.DN. Perhaps the reason why Viet Thang left the Han River team was because his "senior" was no longer in charge.

Wayne Rooney: A legendary player is not necessarily a good coach

Of course, Rooney fans need only know that he took over at Derby when they were rock bottom and now they are back in the top flight. That is an undeniable step forward.

Rooney is still quite green as a coach.

A deep dive into Rooney's journey at Derby. He was promoted to take charge of the team on November 15. In his first 13 games, Rooney's Derby won only 3 and lost 6, including a defeat to direct rivals Rotherham.

But two months later, Rooney was appointed as Derby's permanent manager, not just as an interim manager. This enthusiasm helped the team win six of the next eight games. Derby climbed to 18th place with 38 points.

But Rooney's tactical impact was very weak. He lacked the ability to keep his players focused, resulting in a series of silly mistakes. Rooney was not sensitive to changes, so when key midfielder Krystian Bielik tore his ligament and was out for the rest of the season in January, Derby struggled with a midfield without a leader.

The scant evidence so far suggests Rooney is not a natural manager, even though he was a leader on the pitch as a player.
