    He is still a world class manager. Remember, he was fired by Colombia, not the Mozambique National Team...

    He will find another coaching gig soon. Let's hope it's a club team so he can bring some of our players in, although I'm pretty sure he doesn't enjoy coaching club.
    Ironically he is from Mozambique himself.

      I wish CQ all the best. If he wants to continue to coach (I hope he does), I want him to look forward and not to the past. TM and Iran are in his past. He did the best he could, with what he was given, and won the love of 80 million people. Not many coaches can say that. His legacy is written in stone in Iranian football forever. Thank you CQ and may you find happiness in the next chapter of your life.

        Winning hardware is imo the rule of thumb. CQ never did that yet continuously got extensions.

        Yes...we definitely were but thats only with a Moroccan own goal. Where would we have been without that own goal? Still a Taremi shot away? Doubtful.

        If ifs and buts were candy and nuts we would all be full and happy...

          You could also argue Talebi in 1998 had 1 victory and more goals scored with TM while CQ only had 1 goal scored and no victories in 2014. So does that mean Talebi had been robbed of 4 more years? What you are saying is nonsensicle in the sense that you play football to win...CQ didnt win at seniors mens level coaching our NT anymore than the coaches before him.

          nonsensical is subjective here! I beg to differ.

          Playing to win vs playing to achieve a new standard.
          If its purely to win for the sake of it, you have a point. But qualifying to two WC, going almost an entire campaign with clean sheet! Holding a clean sheet vs Argentina till min 89, almost doing the same vs Spain. Holding clean sheets in two WCs (vs Nigeria 2014, vs Morocco 2018) is setting new standards.
          I choose new standards vs purely better winning statistical percentage.

            Your response implies that winning hardware isn't the sole reason for being offered a chance/contract extension since none were won in this case. With that in mind what caused the IFF to offer CQ a chance and an extension while other TM coaches weren't offered a chance and an extension?

            Edit: while we have a difference in opinion regarding specific cases but I think we both are touching upon something else namely why have we not achieved success in the past 40 years. I'll open a thread about my thoughts on that in a bit and I hope you will contribute to it.

              Ok. Holding a clean sheet vs Nigeria is great...how about in that same WC you only score 1 goal in 3 matches. Thats also a record low for us in any WC competition...? Curious how you rationalize this?

                CQ fails when he tries to appease fans of attacking football.
                In Real Madrid, Colombia and even Iran from 2011-12 he tried attacking football and failed. He is more comfortable with defensive tactics and psychology.
                To say he’s a bad manager is unfair.

                  I rationalize it in the following way,
                  the same WC (2014) that we did better than prevoius (2006) and afterwards progressed much better in 2018.
                  I call this progress.
                  This progress is what I call setting new standards as compared to better winning statistics.

                    Did we do better in 2014 than 2016? We drew in both WC. We lost twice. We scored more in 2006 and had better possession. Until 2014 we never lost to Bosnia.

                    And so for CQ the bar of comparison is Branko and 2014? I think we should compare CQ to the teams and coaches of the same period. When it counted we lost in AC and didn't advance past round 1.

                      O-ZoNe, can you please remind me, who was our coach for our best WC performance ever? (On a percentile basis, KC jan). I am not sure where you're getting this "CQ didn't win" opinion from.

                      By your logic, you rate a WAFF trophy higher than a WC finalist. Sure, you made the WC finals, but you didn't win any "hardware", thus, the WAFF trophy holds more weight/prestige.

                        On the first paragraph is where our opinion differ.
                        We played vs Argentina a great game and so did we play also a great game against Spain and Portugal. The results of these games are not what matter to me. That loss vs Argentina and Spain and the way we played were for me far better achievement than the winning records of coaches prior to CQ!


                        Yes, I compare CQ vs Branco and Talebi, because you say CQ had 8 years, so that is why he brought us to two WCs, which implies Branco and Talebi would have done the same had they had 8 years. I beg to differ.

                        In any case, your assessment is based on winning statistics, mine is based on setting new standards. Thats were we differ. Its fine. We don’t have to agree!

                          Of course not. But declining WAFF participation with aim of securing a medal in AC and failing at that is a failure. You rail on Branko and praise CQ but at least Branko won a WAFF and a bronze in AC. Of course I don't prefer Branko over CQ but I also don't think CQ should ever come back to TM as his time is past and in my opinion was not a successful one.

                            How was our game against Argentina great? In 2014 we set some of the wc lowest all time possession and offensive chances. Is football just defending? Since when?

                            In 2018 we played all 3 matches similar to 2014...we lacked any creativity up front during CQ era and teams figured us out. Look at how easily Asia's #1...a source of pride for CQ unraveled at AC.

                              On your first paragraph, I think the way we see football is different, hence why we disagree.
                              Football is not just defending, neither did TM defend 90 mins. In fact we created more chances to score in second half than Argentina did. I regard that game great. You regard that game poor. Its fine. As I said we don't have to agree.

                              In 2018 we played the toughest WC group we ever had and in my opinion we did great. Again we don't have to agree.

                              Maybe you are right, maybe I am wrong! Maybe the more I think about it I change my opinion. But right now, I don't think I will.
                              Its OK to disagree.

                                You do realise that TM is not Brazil right? Just had to ask this question as it is not clear to me that you do...

                                Yes by Asian and Iranian standards we played a great game against World Cup finalists Argentina with a Messi who was by far the best player in the world back then and who only managed to score a last minute goal (due to Nekounam's mistake). With a bit more luck we could've drawn or even beaten Argentina as we should've been rewarded a penalty and had Nekounam just kept his head cool instead of trying to dribble right in the middle of the field, we may have beaten them, regardless it was a close game whereas normally any top Asian side would've been trashed by Messis's Argentina of 2014.

                                Regarding Branco, don't even get me started, the man did not even know how to manage a team, and losing to Mexico 3-1 and Portugal 2-0 and drawing a weak Angola 1-1 is not nearly as good as beating Morocco, drawing Portugal and narrowly losing to Spain, where also in that game with a little bit of luck we could've drawn or beaten Spain.
