So Close to Having an Iranian player in Holland

[chichinaldo]

Someone brought up Reza Ghoochannejad (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reza_Ghoochannejhad) who plays now for Cambuur in Holland's second division. Well, I looked up to see if his team made it to promotion play-offs and it looks like, they came so close to being in the finals which is going on today. They tied Zwolle, another popular team and only missed out on Penalties. He's a real talent, and has scored 15 goals in 37 appearances. Possibly a good candidate for Team Melli.

Who Aghil Etemadi?

Last I heard, was when he had his trial at the beninning of this season with Steel Azin. They went instead with Sosha Makani, maybe a decision that they regret now!:eyebrows:

[teammelli1]

^ Lol believe me. Even with Aghil Etemadi, their goals would have been opened 50 times or even more. That team had no organization. It was just a mess in every aspect.

hes not good enough to play in the eredivise? based on what ive seen from him in the passed, he definately seems to have a promsing future. hope he can make a move to a bigger club and play for tm

[Carlos Queiroz]

African WC Teams always have players from 3rd French league in their teams,I bet this player can at least be invited to the 60 man list of Queiroz,the problem is that IFF is overchallenged with their jobs. There are 4-5 players I can name who could be in Iran beeing tested now but its not Queiroz fault yet.

I definitely think that he's good enough to play in Holland's top division. This kid has been scoring pretty close to .4 goal/game for his teams in past 3 years. I think Reza might have a bit of a temper issue off the field as I've seen him get into it with opposing team's players a few times!

Still only 23 years old, Reza Ghochannejad is definitely someone to keep our eye on. Eredivisie was one of the top profiting leagues in the world last year, I'm sure they're top teams have a very good eye for talented players in their league and the lower leagues. Once they spot a good player with a couple of years experience and with U-21 national team record, they'll be interested to see how he measures up against the big boys in AJAX and PSV.
