What is wrong with Ehsan Hajsafi?

[IranPowned]

Not only Hajsafi, Ghafouri has the same story, he is only what older.

[Nariman]

Like many other iranians, he is too kun goshad to leave his confort and his star status in Sepahan. In some years, he will wake up and maybe with a bit of luck (like the one Ansarifard has with Neku in Osasuna) he will get his chance in Europe. But it will be too late, he will struggle like Ansarifard and his 0 goal season in 2nd division.

These kind of iranians have 0 ambitions and even with a euro move in their late career, they won't be anything than an average player at international stage.

Maybe I missed something but show me one offer Hajsafi rejected and I will agree. Until then you are absolutely wrong on this, it’s exactly the opposite! Hajsafi is one of the few players that still knows what loyality & gheyrat is! If he cared about comfort and money he would not stay in Sepahan all the years and work hard like that to stay in top form each season winning trophies left & right. You are right on Ansarifard (& many others), but you own an apology to Hajsafi for that harsh and unfair comment. As already said, the fact that he managed to survive in PGL after all the years just proves he is anything else than koon-goshad, the man has done a phenomenal job to stay in shape.

Don't just spew nonsense when you have no clue what you're saying. Hajsafi has always stated his intention of wanting to play in Europe, and even went to England last year (where conditions did not permit him to play in the league). Not going to Europe does not mean he is koon goshad but rather that the conditions have not fortunate. Whether he plays in Europe or not, Hajsafi is a quality Iran-based player (similar to Hosseini). Given all the effort and hard work he's put into his career so far, I doubt he's going to slow down right now (especially since he's on the verge of becoming TM's captain).

Maybe cuz he didn't play

[rezabmehr]

My three favorite current TM players:
Ando, Haj Safi and Amiri. They respect the TM jersey and play with all they have every time.

Maybe he should no longer play as LB because he lacks defensive skills.

That's the point and the answer to why he could not play to his full potential. The LM of TM should fully be his. Using him as a defender (LB) is the biggest mistake IMO, just watch how is tearing the league apart in Sepahan when you put him on his real position. His destructive runs, precise crosses and rocket shots are above PGL level by far!

[YeCheesi Tala]

Thanks for bringing attention to this. Ehsan Hajsafi is the next big Iranian Captain in the same club as Kia,Neku and Daie.

Also, the reason why his game is off most of the time is because he is placed in LB. Even though he is placed in his weaker position he is still able to showcase his amazing talent.

[Kiarash]

Maybe cuz he didn't play

Haha I realized that, but my point about the other games is pretty clear I think.

[ali alipour]

During the UAE game he was invisible

Maybe cuz he didn't play
