Dude we have two players for every position, no other team rotates as much as Queiroz does, and you are worried about fatigue?
Can you believe this guy?
5 players injured? Who? Everybody is fit and Jahanbakhsh is coming back slowly.
I'm far more worried about temperament and mentality than squad depth.
CQ has developed a robust system of play and squad that can adapt to both the opponents and the players we have available that is perfect for this type of draining tournament football.
From our showing so far I think we need to improve the mental aspect significantly - both with respect to remaining calm and not reacting to opposition or referee provocation and being resilient and confident enough to believe we can beat any team.
Ideally we need some sort of Tibetan guru to lead the team on a group mindfulness session before each game.
Very true. During the Vietnam game it felt like each time there was a foul called everyone just kept pestering the ref. Lets not forget the first game when Azmoun launched the Yemeni's defender when he was getting pestered during the Dejagah free kick goal. Our guys need to keep it cool and just play with a level head.
I'm worried that our bench is little too deep!
