TM NEWS - VOL 8

[Artaxerxes]

Not sure if this was mentioned but apparently Ezatolahi is out for 2 months due to the injury from the Uzbek game the other day..

Thank you for the info, lucky in the unluck that it is "only " two months, fat or not Ezzat and Azmoun are our most important players.

We saw in the al ain cup that we cant score goals whitout Azmoun and that we lose midfield whitout Ezzat.

And I guess he's the player in the squad who commits most fouls.

He is also extremely careless with his forward passing & doubt anyone else in TM leads him in giveaways dept ..!!??? :/ id be scared to play further back on the Rwing 😬 a sloppy misplaced pass back there could well mean a conceded goal .! :/
Occasionally though when he gets stuck-in & locks in defensively he can still be a well experienced, menacing & combative defensive presence on the wing in a counterattacking overall Team shape ..!

[Artaxerxes]

Its official now that we will be in pot 2 for next fridays draw.

This would be a dreamgroup and save us from aberoorizi:

Canada
Iran
Panama
Curacao/Haiti

Nightmare group would be:

France/Spain
Iran
Norway
Ghana

With the World Cup draw taking place next week here is what i think will be the best/worst case for Team Melli (probably irrelavant as we will finish bottomwith 0 points but:

Best:
- USA/Canada/Mexico
- Iran
- Panama/South Africa
- Cape Verde/Curacao/Haiti/New Zealand

Worst:
- Spain/France/England/France/Argentina/Portugal/Germany
- Iran
- Norway
- Italy

[IRAN_TILL_I_DIE]

OK slight alteration, cant have 3 european teams in group so worst case , change Nrway with Egypt/Algeria/Paraguay/Ivory coast

If we cant beat haiti or curacao we should build a statue of GN to spit on.

[Nokhodi]

I want an exciting, technical, but slow group.

Argentina, Iran, Algeria, Italy.

I have a hunch thought that we'll be in Group A with Mexico.

Do you want Algeria before Panama and Italy before Haiti/Curacao?

We had the easiest group last World Cup and we couldn’t get out of it

only England was hard

USA and wales both at the same level ,

it doesn’t matter even if we get the easiest group possible, we still not going to do well anyway , the USA team we played against 4 years ago , is way stronger now , way stronger , they would beat us , Canada has too much athleticism for our back line , Mexico is Mexico, they kinda like us has ups and down , but cause they at home and they hosting there is no way they won’t get a penalty or a red card FIFa referees and Vars will help them go thru , all the other Pot A team , we going to lose too ,

so idk we have never every beat a Pot A team ,

[a_m]

Yea so easiest group would be

Pot A -any team doesn’t really matter
Iran
Scotland
New Zealand

this group I can see us getting out of , Pot A team going to beat all these teams , if we can be in a hot host city , New Zealand Scotland can’t survive there , so yes

[Nokhodi]

Do you want Algeria before Panama and Italy before Haiti/Curacao?

Yes, only way we will actually prepare well instead of goshadbazi.

[Artaxerxes]

Yes, only way we will actually prepare well instead of goshadbazi.

Dont matter how we prepare against these teams you chose whit this joke of a coach bro, we will lose all 3 games.

[IRAN_TILL_I_DIE]

yea i saw the interview where he said he wants Qatar, and he got told that they cant face Qatar as they are Asian
.
Imagine being a manager at the World Cup and not knowing one of ,if not, the most basic rules. Such an embarrassment!!

[persian-eagle-13]

I want group of death. the hardest group possible. with this team and coach it only serves them well to get raped.

[Nokhodi]

Dont matter how we prepare against these teams you chose whit this joke of a coach bro, we will lose all 3 games.

Doesn't matter. I want us to play important challenging games, instead of the usual "ama o agar' type permutations and "easy games type thinking that leads to complacency, arrogance and ultimately poor games.
