Coach Miura has high ambitions: In V-League, you can't say anything good!
The former captain of Vietnamese football is confident that he will help Ho Chi Minh City FC enter the top 3 leading teams next season. Coach Miura's ambition is not without reason, but in V-League it cannot be said well...
When coach Miura is ambitious...
Obviously, the Japanese coach did not say that just to please his guests or to make them laugh during the farewell ceremony on the evening of March 13 in Ho Chi Minh City, when in reality, the team that Coach Miura holds the highest authority in terms of expertise is not bad at all.
A series of blockbuster contracts, even the most prominent in V-LeagueThe 2018 season was brought by Cong Vinh and the leadership of Ho Chi Minh City Club to serve the goals of Coach Miura.

There is even more reason for the Japanese coach to be more confident because earlier in his contract signing ceremony with the new team, Cong Vinh himself revealed that "all the contracts brought in were personally selected and reviewed by coach Miura before signing".
With a series of good players from domestic players such as Phi Son, Van Thuan, Sam Ngoc Duc, Ngoc Thinh... to foreign players such as Gonzalo (about to be naturalized), Paulo Daniel Fernandes Tavares, Gustavo..., it is clear that coach Miura also has more grounds for optimism.

Not to mention, with strong financial resources from sponsors, Coach Miura's team is quite comfortable with a prize fund considered quite large this season. Therefore, it is not surprising that both Cong Vinh and the Japanese captain confidently set high goals, as well as affirmed“will surprise”" at V-League 2018.
In V-League, it is not good to speak well.
With the potential and strength in hand, it is clear that coach Miura can completely believe in a successful season for himself and his team, not to mention the relatively good time to work and get acquainted with the V-League.
However, the Japanese coach's confidence in Ho Chi Minh City Club seems a bit... excessive, as well as not having too much information about the tournament he is about to lead his team to - a more difficult tournament, compared to taking the team to compete in a short tournament such as Asiad, SEA Games, AFF Cup...

This is true, because in reality, the V-League lasts a very long time and comes with a series of problems that arise throughout the season, not just simply finishing the game and then stopping. Not to mention, the 2018 season will also have sensitive breaks such as the pause to make way for the World Cup, for example.
Because of the many problems that arise, a team in the V-League sometimes only has talent, but also has to win the hearts of the people to be successful. The famous saying "four-legged coach's chair, three of which the player holds"still valuable after all these years, although not as popular as before.
It is not just an internal story, V-League is not simply “strong because of rice, bold because of money”. Because in reality, although there are no longer “devil alliances” like in the subsidy period, no one dares to affirm that the matches will be fair and straightforward.
And because of many factors behind the V-League, the captain's chair is always very hot and difficult to keep, especially for foreign coaches. To put it bluntly, for many years, no foreign coach has lasted more than 1 season, let alone completed a contract.
V-League is a tournament that is very good at changing coaches, as well as having a lot of hidden stories that outsiders like Mr. Miura cannot fully grasp and cannot tell well. Of course, shouting loudly to get the spirit for the new season is also fine...
Just wait and see, Coach Miura...
