Vietnamese fans have mixed opinions regarding coach Troussier
At the 2024 Asian Cup, following two losses once morest Japan and Indonesia, Vietnam is currently at the bottom of Group D and became the first team to be eliminated. In particular, the defeat once morest Indonesia caused the Vietnamese team to lose many points and drop to 100th on the FIFA rankings.
At 6:30 p.m. tomorrow (January 24), Vietnam National Team will meet Iraq National Team in the final match of the group stage. If they continue to lose in this match, Vietnam will almost certainly fall out of the world’s top 100 for the first time since November 29, 2018.

More worryingly, the playing style of the Vietnamese national team under Coach Troussier’s reign is not as effective as expected. The tactics and starting lineup used by Coach Troussier were completely different when Coach Park Hang-seo was still attached to Vietnamese football.
On social networks, many fans believe that coach Troussier made the wrong choice with the Vietnamese team. Coach Troussier’s attempt to apply ball control and over-reliance on many young players is considered by Vietnamese fans as unable to bring the Vietnamese team to its highest goal of winning tickets to the 2026 World Cup. .
However, there are also many fans defending Coach Troussier. These fans think that Coach Troussier’s playing style is worth watching and everyone needs to be more patient, so that he can focus as much as possible on improving Vietnamese football.
