No need to explain. I simply don’t agree with you. That’s the great thing about a discussion forum, people can disagree and voice their own opinion.
CQ has been subbing Azmoun out at around the 70 min mark pretty much since the beginning of Azmoun’s TM career. Today’s game Dejagah was gassed out, instead of subbing him out, CQ subs a player who is having a good game and could possibly score a third goal.
CQ adores Azmoun and welcomed him back with open arms after his mini-retirement. Dejageh is gassed out because he's nearing the end of his career, but he is still key in the midfield. Azmoun needs to chase every single through ball and (along with Taremi) is the key to finishing and scoring (we witnessed this in both games). You simply don't flog your best race horse if you're already winning the game. Simple. And it's not only I who thinks this, but a 4 time WC coach who has taken 3 different nations to the WC stage. I think he knows better than both of us combined.
Carlos just couldnt go a game w/o bringing on his, well overrated, coach's pet Ansarifard on for at least a few minutes..!!seriously.. WTF is up with Carlos's obsession with Karim..??
and it was a mistake not to sub-off an obviously gassed out Ashkan and saved his legs for the vital iraq clash..!
Goals and Highlights:
Kanaani looked like someone had kicked him in his nuts
Liked the squad rotation honestly.
If we get to the final that means we have FIVE games to play in a short turnover period. IPL definitely doesnt play that many nor do our legionnaires respective leagues (except for Jahanbakhsh).
I had my doubts on Kanaani and hes def good enough for this competition anyway.
I expect CQ to come out with Shojaei as CAM against Iraq. Might even put Cheshmi as DM to rest Ebrahimi.
Only thing I have disagreed with CQ so far is not playing Milmo and not putting Hajsafi in midfield. That would take some pressure off Ebrahimi and really fortify our until now impenetrable defense
