After a series of poor results, Song Lam Nghe An is facing a high risk of relegation. To avoid the worst possible situation, the Nghe An team must quickly implement the necessary actions...

Add force

There is a saying "no flour can make glue", the power ofLam River Nghe AnCurrently, it is no different from the U21 team + 3 foreign players competing in the highest football tournament in Vietnam. In particular, the player level of the U21 Song Lam Nghe An team is not very good. The most obvious measure is in the recent National U21 tournament, U21 Song Lam Nghe An was eliminated right in the qualifying round. The quality of domestic players is both poor and immature, and foreign players are also not as expected.

This was verified after 9 rounds atV-League, center-back Zaracho of Song Lam Nghe An has left a big disappointment. Playing slowly, reading situations poorly, not really strong in the disputes are what was seen in the performance of the player from Paraguay. The presence of Zaracho in the squad did not help Song Lam Nghe An's defense to be stronger. The proof is that after 7 matches this player participated, Song Lam Nghe An conceded 8 goals. And it feels like, when the opponent attacks Song Lam Nghe An's goal, it falls into a red alert state.

Therefore, if they do not quickly find a foreign central defender capable of carrying the team's defense, the risk of leaving the game will become closer and closer for the Vinh team.

On the other hand, it can be said that the current lineup of Song Lam Nghe An is lacking in strength and composure in the way of implementing the playing style. According to analysis from experts, the Vinh team currently does not have a "backbone" with enough level and strength to play in the V-League. If the Nghe team had a player capable of recovering the ball, converting the state, and controlling the middle of the field, then there would certainly not be a situation where every team could score, or could not actively play against the opponent like today.

So, perhaps this is the time when Song Lam Nghe An really needs a capable foreign midfielder to help Song Lam Nghe An escape from the current situation.

When there is a solid "backbone" consisting of a central defender and a foreign midfielder, with Olaha playing highest in the attack, then the young domestic players will be able to fully develop their technical qualities. It is very possible that Song Lam Nghe An will show a completely different face, not weak and lacking identity as it is now.

And to do that, there is no other way, the sponsor of Song Lam Nghe An needs to pour money into their wallets soon, don't wait until the "cow is lost" and even if they want to "build a barn", it will no longer be effective.

Comprehensive change

In a response after the loss to Viettel in round 9 of V-League,Coach Phan Nhu Thuatsaid: "The upcoming work will be a lot for us". Indeed, even if we have more staff, Song Lam Nghe An still has a lot of work to do.

It is quite fortunate for Song Lam Nghe An that after round 9 of the V-League, there will be a 2-month break. This will be a golden time for coach Phan Nhu Thuat to rebuild the playing style for the Vinh home team. In particular, the Nghe coaching staff needs to quickly rebuild the team's tactics. Through 9 rounds, it can be seen that Song Lam Nghe An almost only uses the 3-5-2 formation, a formation that the players have practiced many times. And in fact, in some matches, Song Lam Nghe An has operated this formation quite smoothly. However, if only stuck to one familiar formation, it will be very easy for opponents to predict Song Lam Nghe An's playing style. As in the match against Viettel, coach Nguyen Duc Thang carefully studied Song Lam Nghe An's operation, which is why he effectively exploited the weaknesses that the home team revealed.

Therefore, Song Lam Nghe An needs to be more flexible in using diagrams and tactics to avoid the opponent's ability to predict.

Along with that, Song Lam Nghe An also needs to calculate the distance of each line and each position. In some matches, at many times, the distance of the Nghe team's formation is quite far apart. This has affected the ability to cover between lines and players. A clear example is in the match with Viettel, Song Lam Nghe An revealed many shortcomings, the main reason is that the players did not connect and support each other in time. Therefore, to increase the solidity in defense and be more effective in attack, closing the formation to play close together is an option that the coaching staff of Song Lam Nghe An needs to consider.

In addition, the players in the front line often have difficulty receiving the ball, or cannot create surprises in the attacking coordination, which is a problem that Song Lam Nghe An has revealed. The reason comes from the players' ability to move without the ball. The variation in the way they move and find space is something that Song Lam Nghe An has not seen much. This is one of the reasons why Song Lam Nghe An is very short of ideas in approaching the opponent's goal.

It can be said that a 2-month break is very long for a National Football Championship and it can affect teams that have been playing well such as Thanh Hoa, Nam Dinh or Hong Linh Ha Tinh. However, for Song Lam Nghe An, this break is like a panacea, helping the team to successfully cure existing diseases. Hopefully, when the V-League returns, Song Lam Nghe An will show a new face, with new vitality, thereby breaking out of the "red light" group as it is now.
