The person who has most clearly changed Quang Hai at this time is coach Kiatisuk. The Thai coach has helped Quang Hai rekindle his inherent class. At the age of 27, Quang Hai has shown signs of slowing down over the past year.

The national team's unsuccessful performance under coach Troussier had a significant impact on Quang Hai. The midfielder born in 1997 could not maintain his confidence and inspiration to play football with his left foot, which had become his trademark. Quang Hai was not a star under coach Troussier, and also played at an average level on the national team. The fact that Quang Hai was used and kept away from the team most likely caused the 27-year-old midfielder to lose confidence in himself.

At Hanoi Police, coach Kiatisuk revealed that he had to talk to his student many times. "Thai Zico" is experienced and understands what is happening to Quang Hai. After the victory over Thanh Hoa on the evening of February 27, coach Kiatisuk said: "Quang Hai has improved his spirit, fitness, and confidence in recent times. Quang Hai is a very important player of Hanoi Police Club. I always talk to him to improve his shortcomings, in addition to improving his strengths such as long-range shots and free kicks. Quang Hai is a leader and knows how to listen to improve."

At Hanoi Police, Quang Hai is still a difficult pillar to replace for coach Kiatisuk. This player is constantly on the starting field. However, it was not until the recent match at Hang Day Stadium that the 27-year-old midfielder was able to repay coach Kiatisuk.

Quang Hai is encouraged to operate widely and quite freely. Coach Kiatisuk allows Quang Hai to play as a left forward, or when necessary, he can move inside to play as an attacking midfielder. Quang Hai's second goal against Xuan Hoang shows that this midfielder's handling skills are still very standard.

Quang Hai only needed one precise step before getting into the momentum to beat Thanh Hoa's goalkeeper. The away team could not get up in time after this goal. Hanoi Police had 3 full points on the day they set the goal of returning to the championship race. 3 points after round 11 helped Hanoi Police temporarily take the 2nd place from Thanh Hoa.

Coach Kiatisuk's team is on the right track, partly because "Thai Zico" showed leadership qualities in the reigning champions. No longer in the erratic form, winning and losing like in the beginning, Hanoi Police are stable thanks to a team of domestic stars who know how to shine.

They won 4 consecutive matches to get 12 points and return to the race to defend the highest title of the tournament. In the victory against Thanh Hoa, 3 domestic players, Tan Tai, Quang Hai and Van Thanh, spoke up. In round 10, another player shined at the right time to help Hanoi Police defeat Song Lam Nghe An with at least center back Viet Anh. In round 8, Quang Hai and Tan Tai, 2 domestic players, also scored to help Hanoi Police beat B.Binh Duong 3-0.

The three foreign players in the attack line, Junior Fialho (3 goals), Jeferson Elias (2 goals) and Geovane Magno (1 goal), contributed 6 out of the total 19 goals of Hanoi Police after 11 matches. This shows the dominance of the domestic players in scoring ability. Coach Kiatisuk knows the strengths of Quang Hai and his teammates and he promises to help this club become stronger in the future.
