Dejagah: I have no intention to return to Europe

[Karimi 8]

I'm telling you guys, it's an Iranian footballing trait to be inconsistent. I don't know why.

The only player I feel plays consistently well is Andranik Teymourian. He is consistently hustling, and very rarely a non-presence in a game.

Haghighi, inconsistent. Nekounam, inconsistent. Shojaei, inconsistent. Dejagah, inconsistent. As of late, even Gucci, inconsistent.

There's a reason I love Ando so much. He's the most underappreciated TM player of all time. Without him, over these last few years cleaning up games that we were screwing up, I don't want to think of where we would be.

Hosseini is also very consistent

Hosseini is also very consistent

True, but Hosseini has had a bad habit of having jittery performances in important games. Against Iraq and UAE in AC, he seemed to make many dangerous passes, and seemed less confident, and we all remember that horrible pass against Bosnia that sealed our elimination from Brazil. He's one of our greatest defenders ever, but my point still stands. No Iranian player rises to the occasion in both unimportant and important matches like Ando Teymourian. He's mentally very confident and stable. I never seem to think he fears any player. Hosseini is great, but I wouldn't put him at that level of confidence.

The silly monkey was slapped off Shojaei's back and now it being a monkey has firmly latched on to Dejagah's back.

Since you quoted me precious, would you care to translate that into a human language?

As far as form and drive goes, Amiri is the best we have right now.

nobody can come close to Ando in consistent Form and Drive dept...! that dude is build like tank and got like 5-6 lungs..!?? ageh Karimi strength & stamina Ando ro daasht, Messi ham be tokhme champesh nemiresid..!! he woulda become the undisputed best player in the world bar none..!!

your correct on Amiri as well, he has a bit above average overall football skills but his immense CONFIDENCE and DRIVE, impressed me the most about that kid's game upon his TM debut...!( although many here, unjustly bashed his early TMperformances ..!! )
i especially love his cocky Confidence on the ball, he would take on and go right at anyone standing in his left wing..!! lol the kid has No fear nor reservation ...!! this was totally evident even vs Sweden & Chile..!!

ps

as far as getting cute on the ball o ye pa do pa, Shojaee has the edge over Dejagha but when it comes to EU-Quality, EFFECTIVE technicality to get by one's marker and having the physicality, strength, Pace and brute force to wrecken with Ashkan would blow Massud outa water..!!
overall Dejagha>>>Massoud ..!
currently Dejagha is just about the only feared attacking talent at disposal of TM amongst top notch opponents..!! he is about the only TM player who gets double/tripple teamed by our opponents and forced to be taken out of the game..!! he spends a lot of energy trying to shake off markers and get involved in our offense, and he doesnt have a very good stamina and fitness, hence he gets gassed and subbed out often early in TM games...!

Dejagah: I have no intention to return to Europe

A bit unrelated to Dejagah but just found it worth to put it out here.

Former Ajax coach Henk ten Cate has been very critical of winger Ryan Babel joining Al-Ain (UAE) recently.

I am quoting Henk ten Cate who coached in UAE: the level of the UAE league is comparable to the 3rd division of The Netherlands (semi-pro).

Just to give you an idea of competition our legionnaires have when joining these crap leagues.

^ Agree with Henk.

The sad truth is that IPL teams are currently struggling against these teams.

Football has become strictly a money business for Dejagah.

Idk why we are even following him.

At this rate he won't be in our 2018 World Cup squad.

[Tehranto]

Well if there is one coach that can start disconnecting from traditional legionaries who have opted for Arab Persian Gulf teams, it's Carlos Querioz.

What's the point of having a player in the squad who can only play 10 minutes each game?
