The reverse side of HAGL

The almost absolute reliance on 11 main players will make Kiatisuk’s HAGL difficult if Cong Phuong or Van Toan do not play.
Each team has not only 11 people.

In addition to the number of starting players, clubs must have an extra force to prepare for situations that arise and injuries. In the V.League, teams usually have 25 to 30 players. HAGL also registered 26 players for this season. To win the V.League championship, coaches often have to maximize the capabilities of both the main squad and the reserve team. HAGL almost maintained an immutable roster after 10 rounds. Photo: Minh Chien. Official and reserve spreads After 10 rounds of V.League, no club has the difference in time between the main roster and the reserve team as much as HAGL. 6 HAGL players who have played all 10 games this season are Nguyen Van Toan, Nguyen Cong Phuong, Washington Brandao, Vu Van Thanh, Nguyen Huu Tuan and Huynh Tuan Linh. The other 5 people with 9 matches are Kim Dong-su, Damir Memovic, Nguyen Phong Hong Duy, Luong Xuan Truong and Tran Minh Vuong. They form a group of 11 main soccer players of coach Kiatisuk. All 11 people have more than 800 minutes in the V.League. Minh Vuong, who is the least player in this group, also has 750 minutes. In the opposite direction, 16 other HAGL players only played a total of 824 minutes, slightly better than Minh Vuong. The huge difference in the number of minutes played between the main and the reserve players led to the difference in contributions to the club. The first 11 people scored 19 goals for HAGL in the V.League. The remaining 16 people did not have one. Kiatisuk is doing very well with the main rock team. But the capacity of the reserve group has not been nearly verified. Or rather, they were not given a chance to show their abilities. We have too little data on Trieu Viet Hung, Nguyen Van Viet, Chau Ngoc Quang … under Kiatisuk. I don’t know how they will perform, what role they will play even though they are both national players, their qualifications are acknowledged. The 600-minute gap between the main team and the reserve team deepens the qualification gap between the two sides. Kiatisuk is not making full use of his abilities, while limiting the reserve group’s progress. More importantly, this will make it difficult for HAGL in the long distance race. In the V.League, HAGL is the only team that has this way of using this user. The second team Viettel also has players who play 900 minutes like Tran Nguyen Manh, Hoang Duc, but they also have players who kick 500, 600 minutes like Pedro Paulo or Jahongir Abdumuminov. The ability to use coach Truong Viet Hoang allows backup names like Vu Minh Tuan, Nguyen Trong Dai to find their own place. The proof is that Minh Tuan has scored and Trong Dai often shines when he is given the opportunity. If users like HAGL, Hanoi club in the 2019 season can hardly fight on 4 fronts. And players like Truong Van Thai Quy, Dinh Tien Thanh or Ngan Van Dai will forever stand in the dark. Kiatisuk needs to prepare for a situation in which Cong Phuong cannot play. Photo: Minh Chien. What team formation does HAGL play with An Giang? But this is just one shortcoming of HAGL. The top of the V.League table proves that Kiatisuk is still correct. He did a great job with the main squad and needed to achieve the same thing with the reserve team. The match against An Giang in the National Cup qualifier on the afternoon of April 23 was an opportunity for him. In the past, the big V.League did not take this tournament seriously. Almost certainly, Binh Duong, Da Nang, Thanh Hoa will launch the reserve squad. If you cannot do the same thing, defeating An Giang cannot be the complete victory for HAGL. Every team wants to beat HAGL now, not only An Giang. Coach Trinh Van Hau (An Giang) From the day V.League returned on March 14 to the match against An Giang, HAGL will play 9 matches in 41 days, averaging 4.5 days / match. They will play 3 more matches with the same intensity. In addition to the continuous travel schedule between the North and South ends and a tense gathering of Vietnam, how many of HAGL’s crystal feet will remain? To avoid that scenario, Kiatisuk will have to think of the reserve team. But how will those players who rarely play? Quang Nho, Bao Toan, Ngoc Quang only have a total of 57 minutes this season. How will they play if they get on the pitch for 90 minutes? Remember, apart from 11 main positions, no other player has scored for HAGL. No team can win the V.League with just 11 people, including HAGL. The confrontation with An Giang this afternoon will partly show Kiatisuk’s solution, which will greatly affect the fate of HAGL on the championship race. Kiatisuk: ‘Xuan Truong is the key player of HAGL’ Captain HAGL explained the reason why Xuan Truong cried after the match with the Hanoi team and praised the pupil.
