TM-News-Vol. 6

100% agree. Politics is the only way to sort out this problem! IFF can't do sh!t when it comes to this kind of matters.

i suspect the office of the foreign ministry has played at least some role on how rather professionally our rightful grievances against AFC has so far been presented ..??
a while earlier someone mentioned that Zarif was getting involved in the matter .... im more apt to believe that rumor now..!
we all know the usual goozoo's in IFF are simply incapable of properly handling such tasks .. seen it many times before their amateur attempts at similar matter..!

Just your daily reminder that the two best forwards to ever play for Iran are currently our starting forwards.

I agree on many criteria: Euro success, UCL participation/goals, league scoring titles, etc. But with total TM goals, gotta have Daei as a mention. Thus, I’d say they’re 2 of the top 3 best

[Bandar Hamal]

I agree with the sentiment to honour and appreciate two of the outstanding football players representing Iran and Iranian football at the moment -- Azmoun and Taremi. I'm hesitant as of yet to rank either of them ahead of Ali Daei who holds a world record for international goals, Iran's national record for goals, won a gold medal for Iran at the 2002 Asian Games, and (for what they're worth) two third place finished from Asian cups. I also think that players from the late 60's to late 70's are often forgotten because the eras they played in are derided, but they remain the only players to have won major honours for Iran; in particular I'm thinking of the strikers Behzadi (1968 winner and tournament top scorer) and Kalani (1968 & 1972 winner; 1972 tournament top scorer). Where I would rank each of these five is difficult for me to say, though I would lean towards giving Daei the number one spot, but I think it's likely by the end of their careers a top five Iran strikers list would have to surely include both Azmoun and Taremi. If they could win a tournament, even an Asian Games or something, it would really solidify those claims. It would be a waste if they couldn't christen their careers with silverware for Iran.

Some interesting stats I found earlier today:

Iran played 7 games away in Bahrain: lost 5, drew 2 and won 0. Iran has never won against Bahrain in Manama.

I do not want to be a pessimist here, but neither the stats nor the weather in June are in favour of Iran.

Hence AFC's insistence that Iran play all remaining WCQ in Bahrain. It's a calculated decision to keep Iran contained and potentially out of the WC. If Iran doesn't make it, it makes room for a chicken-little team like Bahrain to make it.

wow, for real..?
figured our record woulda been poor there but this is alarmingly bad..!! that is why its paramount to at a very least move the games to a neutral venue..!! gutter or even UAE is fine to me..! anywhere but in manama..!!

These type of records should not scare us. They are meant to be broken. We had an impenetrable fortress in Azadi until some b level Jordan beat us in 2006 WCQ.

We also never held a clean sheet in a world cup after 9 attempts. It took until the 10th game for us to get a clean sheet.

What we know is that while we have a task at hand in Manama, its no walk in the park for Bahrain to deal with our players now and if they show any sign of weakness our players will go for blood

Again its all about the mentality !

Get some good PSYCHOLOGISTS for TEAM Melli !

A late surge of form from Alipour and Delfi would be fantastic before the season ends, I hope it continues for them

I hope so too man, and I think we’re starting to see it in Alipour. That was a beautiful and smart assist by him yesterday. An unselfish move which will only help him remain in the starting 11.

I watch him and I see that he’s trying his best. He hasn’t had a great season but I believe that he’s understands now how European/Portuguese football works. He’s putting in effort. I’m optimistic about Alipour!

Any word on the deadline for CAS?

Any word on the deadline for CAS?

From an interview I just watched with the IFF lawyer, it’s Monday.

Some updates from Kish's football facility.
Apparently the pitch has been replaced and they are now fertilizing. Lighting is being upgraded along with some seating and architectural upgrades/changes.
IFF rep (Ghanbarzadeh) will apparently be there every day to make sure its ready in time.
It doesn't look great right now, but let's wait and see. They're at least trying.
Its clear though that the final TM camp before the summer qualifiers will be in Kish. Players will also be staying at Dariush hotel.
