CQ will leave after Chili & Sweden Games

[ashkan24]

LOL dude's first post is an insult followed by a term of endearment...then we wonder what's wrong with everything affiliated with us and our society Sometimes we must look within to begin solving the issues out there!

I simply corrected his rather pathetic, and "atmospheric" - - comment and reminded him to place that soil on top of his own head and not to make unilateral decisions about "soiling" other people due to his emotional entanglement with his idol CQ. I would go on to suggest that he'd slap himself as well and make a vine and upload it on the net for my personal viewing pleasure as well.

Well at least you are talking about soil on head and not poop on head.

[persiangodfather]

doesnt make sense why he would even coach these 2 games and then quite

[ashkan24]

First of all, this is a political stunt, CQ isn't going anywhere. No one wants him and certainly no one would pay him as much as we do given his pathetic track record and his inability to play attractive football. CQ is a pathetic spoiled 60 year old to whom his personal gain is more important than Iranian national interests, hence this #teamomidgate scandal. I would also point towards his shenanigans prior to the WC with TM kit sponsors that resulted to international headlines regarding Iran being a piss poor country that can't afford proper jerseys for their national TM. That is CQ's biggest contribution to Iran and TM, tainting our image even further internationally because he was begging for more sponsored money.

As Bi-honar, and DD have mentioned some of you are simply idolaters when it comes to CQ and treat any criticism towards him, irrespective of its rationality as blasphemy as is highlighted throughout this thread.

I am glad he decided to pull this stunt, and I hope it backfires and he loses his job permanently. His only other option is coaching a random South African club team anyhow, and that's where he belongs.

Now let's talk about replacements.

I want everyone on PFDC to pay close attention to how attitudes are about to change. All the CQ critics of today, in about 1 year, will cry and beg and wish for the "good ol' CQ days".

All those critics will begin to call the 4 years under CQ "our golden years". Just watch and see. It'll show you how fickle TM fans are!

What a loss. Khak tu sareh IFF, they can't do anything right. I don't think CQ had exceptional demands, I think he had normal demands and it was very clear that IFF couldn't meet them because they're too incompetent, underfunded and unprofessional.

[persepolisfan]

CQ was too stubborn for his and TM's own good. I'm curious to see who will replace him now. I bet Mansourian will be the intern coach, while we look for a 2nd rate Euro coach to take over in the next couple of months.

BTW Sale No Mobarak, to all of you guys I hope that this new year will bring about plenty of happiness and success into your lives.

Golden years? Which golden years? He won 1 point at the world cup and lost at the quarter finals on the asian cup. Everyone is talking here like he beat Brazil with 7:0. Sure, he is a good coach but don't exaggerate. He went away because he did not want to lose Jahanbaksh and Azmoun. What the hell! First of all, these players are needed to beat Saudi Arabia. This qualification is need to be sealed and is much more important then those friendly games. Qualifcation for the olympics will open a book for a whole new squad. Maybe Azmoun en Jahanbaksh will not even play against Sweden and Chile (Think about that). Geez, and stop threating Carlos Queiroz like a king.

Wouldn't mind him being an interim coach, however, that's unlikely. He has grown quite a bit since the Russian game, and would likely want a head coach title which is ridiculous given how inexperienced he is. Mansourian, and Golmohamadi are both good, young, up and coming coaches with respectable TM records as players. But it's 10 years too early for either of them to stand at the helm of TM. They need to prove themselves in high tides of the Persian Gulf League before earning that honor, and opportunity. There is no need for another "Daie or Ghotbi" scandal in TM.

Right now the only Iranian coach qualified for the job is GN, but then again he's a polarizing figure and his tenure as a TM couch would be clouded by a constant array of criticism before he's even offered the job which would be too toxic for TM. So, realistically, we're looking at another foreign coach. But before that there is a need for a new IFF head, someone with gravitas that wouldn't be played with like a fiddle as Kafashian was under the reigns of CQ.

[Doctor DOOM]

I see a lot of ppl say IFF went over his head and chose the players for Omid team.

It seems some of us have forgotten exactly WHO WORKS FOR WHOM here.

CQ works for Iran. It's not the other way round. So the ultimate priority is certainly not keeping CQ satisfied with his temper tantrums. It is WHAT BENEFITS IRAN. Which includes our Olympic team.

This is why I say some of us treat an individual way beyond what's correct and norm. In our desperate attempt to deliver our obedience, we seem to forget the bigger picture. It's IRAN. Not CQ or any other individual. Get your heads out of our a****s

[Karimi 8]

Not the news I wanted to hear

[sarbaz]

I love CQ and I want him to stay but
What i dont undrestand is why didnt CQ just let the Omid team have Azmoon and Jahanbakhsh ???
They usualy come of the bench any way and we dont have any official TM games its just a couple of friendlies ???
Omid team and going to Olympic is very important right ???

[Paradigm]

Give the team to Faraki right now before the friendlies so he can fine tune things. I know his coaching and managing abilities from Foolad days. He deserves the job.

Faraki deserves jack.

[Paradigm]

Faraki deserves jack.

Let's not talk down one of our best coaches. If we don't believe in own abilities and resources, others will always take the upper hand.

CQ was not really dedicated to the job and frankly tactically not the right coach for Iran. I am still hurting from the Bosnia (World Cup) and Iraq (Asian Cup) losses, and how he screwed up the minute he tried to try anything other than a defensive counter-attacking football.

[Bijans]

I don't know about you, I do like CQ but I don't think he is a genius either. Our football is corrupted and no matter how we do and what we do we cannot make this work unless it changes from ground up. What's the point of qualifying to the world cup and lose all games or get a 1 point. We did that in 1996 as well. We have to look forward and see how we can improve. At this stage nobody can help our corrupted football federation. So any coach domestic or 2nd tier foreign will have the same result with our team.
