(Baonghean.vn) – With stable performance in V.League 2020, Nghe An players such as Nguyen Manh, Van Duc, and Cong Phuong could be the first names to be included in the training list by coach Park Hang-seo.

As planned, the Vietnam National Team and U22 Vietnam will gather in Hanoi in the next few days. This is a plan to prepare for the friendly match against Kyrgyzstan (October 8) and the away match in Malaysia (October 13) in the second qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup.

According to a VFF official, coach Park Hang-seo will call up the best players who are in good form as well as new discoveries because the training list will be up to 30 players.

On the other hand, goalkeepers Dang Van Lam, Nguyen Tuan Manh or strikers Ha Duc Chinh, Phan Van Long of Da Nang and Ha Minh Tuan cannot participate due to the Covid-19 epidemic. With the absence of Dang Van Lam, goalkeeper Tran Nguyen Manh will be the top choice in the calculation of the Korean coach.

This season, although Viettel's defense has been unstable, Nguyen Manh still has 10 saves in his new shirt, and his passing and attack initiation stats are all very high. Viettel Club's 2nd place in the rankings after 11 rounds has a great contribution from the goalkeeper from Nghe An.

In the 2019 training session, Nguyen Manh was called back to the national team to prepare for the match against Thailand in the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers but had to leave the team due to an elbow injury. Last season in the V.League, Nguyen Manh had 9 clean sheets in the Nghe An team's shirt.

In the case of goalkeepers Van Hoang, Van Toan or Van Cuong, in terms of performance, it will be difficult for coach Park Hang-seo to call them up, but in the context of good goalkeepers like Van Lam and Tuan Manh not being able to participate, a few people can be considered.

In the defense, in addition to the names that have already secured their positions such as Doan Van Hau, Que Ngoc Hai, Trong Hoang, Tien Dung, Thanh Chung, public opinion is thinking of new options with good performance like in recent times such as Viet Anh (Hanoi), Tan Tai (B. Binh Duong).

For players Duy Manh, Dinh Trong, Xuan Manh, because they cannot play again due to injury, it is difficult to be named. However, the possibility of them being gathered so that the team doctors can monitor their injuries is entirely possible.

In the midfield, in addition to players who have already established their positions such as Tuan Anh, Hung Dung, Hoang Duc, some new factors such as Khac Ngoc, Van Thuan, Hoang Thinh, Van Trien, Hong Quan are also very promising. Except for the case of Van Quyet, the Korean coach will call up many quality midfielders to test the 3-center midfield formation.

On the attack line, it will not be surprising if names like Cong Phuong, Van Duc, Van Toan, Tien Linh continue to appear. This season, Cong Phuong has scored 4 goals in V.League, 3 goals in AFC Cup, is a rare name that is flourishing among domestic strikers.

Midfielder Phan Van Duc, although only having 2 goals, but after 1 year of injury treatment, the SLNA player has completely regained his form and shown his class thanks to very impressive professional statistics.

According to commentator Quang Tung: “With the ability, state and what Van Duc is showing, I believe that in the eyes of Coach Park there is always a lot of room for him. He is a rare player in Vietnamese football, maybe not too thick in body but plays both attack and defense, plays with a lot of feeling, can play smoothly with both feet, can connect with the surrounding satellites. Has the determination to solve his own situations.

In the national team, Phan Van Duc can take on the role of second striker, winger. In the upcoming problem when the Vietnam national team's coaching board makes tactical changes, it will require the players to move and change to be more suitable. I believe Van Duc can adapt and improve himself to become an important factor for coach Park Hang-seo again."

As mentioned, the Vietnam national team is in the process of preparing many new tactics and can play with 2 strikers. The increase in the number of strikers and central midfielders creates more opportunities for players in good form. However, there is also information on the sidelines that Coach Park will call back striker Anh Duc.

It is expected that the official list of the first training session of the Vietnam National Team will be announced this week.
