Quang Hai's journey at Pau FC has ended after the 2022-2023 season. In just 1 season playing in Ligue 2, the 26-year-old midfielder played 12 matches (2 starts), played 256 minutes and scored 1 goal. After the 2022 AFF Cup, Quang Hai mainly played for Pau FC's B team, while the former Hanoi FC midfielder was not registered to play in the first team.
At the age of 26, Quang Hai is facing an important crossroads. Continuing to play abroad or returning to the V-League, first competing in the second phase of the 2023 season, the right choice at this time will help Quang Hai regain his form.
Quang Hai returns after 1 year at Pau FC
Talking about the reason why Quang Hai was not successful at Pau FC, expert Doan Minh Xuong stated his opinion: "Quang Hai's acceptance of the challenge and playing abroad shows the progress of Vietnamese football. However, Quang Hai played little, first of all because he could not integrate in terms of culture, language, and lifestyle. As for expertise, Ligue 2 is the second division of France, but the level of skill is still very high, requiring a lot of speed and physical strength. Quang Hai did not meet this requirement. 1 year at Pau FC is a lesson, a useful experience for Quang Hai's future. In the near future, the 26-year-old midfielder will have the right choice and one that is more suitable for him."
Expert Doan Minh Xuong analyzed that at his peak age, the very little playing time in the past year has greatly affected Quang Hai's performance and professional level. Without regular playing time, players are at risk of slowing down, not to mention going backwards, and the AFF Cup 2022 is proof. Quang Hai's problem is that he has to play. That is the deciding factor. Where he plays is not important. He must have a suitable team and play regularly to regain his form after the past year.
The player wearing the number 19 shirt will most likely choose Hanoi Police Club - a rising team in V-League 2023. Although a rookie in the tournament, Hanoi Police team has invested heavily, bringing in national players such as Doan Van Hau, Phan Van Duc, Ho Tan Tai and Vu Van Thanh. Currently, this team is ranked second in V-League 2023, only 1 point behind the leading team Thanh Hoa .
Expert Doan Minh Xuong analyzed: "Quang Hai has many options, but V-League is a destination worth considering. The schedule of V-League 2023 is very suitable for Quang Hai at this time, returning home means being able to practice and compete immediately with matches in phase 2 (instead of having to wait until September to start the new season in Europe). The number of matches in V-League phase 2 is not much, but just return to compete to regain form. The schedule of V-League in the near future is also suitable for the training schedule of the Vietnam national team. When V-League 2023 ends, then Quang Hai will have a wide way to calculate for the future".
Quang Hai needs to regain his form
At the press conference on June 5, Coach Troussier reminded and gave advice to Quang Hai: "I understand and sympathize with the players, because living and playing abroad is not easy. There are many difficulties, because going abroad means getting used to a different living environment, climate, food, culture, there are conflicts in communication and language, not to mention professional requirements. For example, Quang Hai. In Ligue 2, the professional requirements are faster and stronger, requiring Quang Hai to push himself, get used to the intensity of competition and make quick decisions.
I don't have any specific advice, but from the beginning, the club and the players need to understand and support each other better, how to support players in a new environment such as translation, creating favorable conditions for them to limit difficulties. When Vietnamese players go abroad, it is more suitable to go to Korea, Japan, Thailand first."
Hopefully after the experience at Pau FC, Quang Hai will make the right choice to return to his peak form.
