Quality and depth
Preparing for the 2025 Southeast Asian U22 tournament, coach Kim Sang Sik owns a young midfield with the most potential in recent years in Vietnamese football.
Not only having a large number, the midfield of U22 Vietnam also gathers many experienced faces who have fought in V-League and international tournaments, or have worn the Vietnamese national team jersey in the past few years.
U22 Vietnam currently owns many quality midfielders.
Khuat Van Khang, Victor Le, Thai Son are the most notable names as they have just had an impressive season at their club in the V-League. Besides, Mr. Kim Sang Sik also has Van Truong, Phi Hoang, Duc Viet... although not as bright as the above teammates, they are quite experienced.
With a strong and quality "supply team" for the strikers to score goals, the opportunity for U22 Vietnam to win the U23 Southeast Asian Championship for the third time is extremely bright.
Headache for Mr. Kim Sang Sik
When the players are all in good form, have good physical strength and are eager to perform, although it gives coach Kim Sang Sik peace of mind, choosing the official midfield frame is a fierce, even "uncompromising" battle.
With his philosophy, good squad, and deep capabilities in the upcoming U23 Southeast Asian tournament, coach Kim Sang Sik will let his team play with a 3-4-3 attacking formation.
That's why coach Kim Sang Sik is both reassured and has a headache...
The choice for the defense, striker or goalkeeper is considered done. But it can be seen that choosing any of the above names for the midfield for coach Kim Sang Sik is not easy.
The Korean strategist is facing a myriad of tactical and personnel options for U22 Vietnam. Each option has its advantages, but also means having to leave some quality names on the sidelines – something that is not easy to handle psychologically in a highly competitive environment.
However, this is also an opportunity for the U22 Vietnam midfielders to show their desire to rise up. Because only those who truly stand out and fit Mr. Kim's philosophy can stay in the main squad.
This competition, if properly regulated, will not only improve individual quality but also help U22 Vietnam have depth and flexibility in the long journey ahead of the U23 Southeast Asian tournament.
