Coach Troussier's hopes faded when he returned to V.League
In the first round of V.League 2023/24, most of Mr. Troussier's favorite players on the national team played very poorly. In the opening match, veterans such as Ngoc Hai, Duy Manh, Hung Dung or Tien Linh could not play because the match between Hanoi and Binh Duong had to be postponed because the capital team was competing in the AFC Champions League. Meanwhile, Hoang Duc and Van Khang were also absent from Viettel's away match at Vinh Stadium.
The remaining young players and rookies selected by coach Troussier for the Vietnam national team such as Hoang Van Toan, Truong Tien Anh, Nguyen Thai Son, Nguyen Dinh Bac, Pham Van Luan or Trieu Viet Hung did not play really impressively in the opening round of V.League 2023/24.

Man United have not finished so low since the 1989/90 season when they finished 13th. The team had their worst start to a season after 7 rounds with 4 defeats to Tottenham, Arsenal, Brighton and Crystal Palace.
