FIFA World Cup 2018 Qualifying: Oman - Iran @ Sultan Qaboos, Muscat; 08-10-2015

[inarsenewetrust]

the majority of members on pfdc are ultra pathetic. australia lost to jordan, germany lost to northern ireland, italy have been consistently losing to teams like belarus struggling with malta, netherlands are basically out and won't even go to Euros. Iran are in a strong position to qualify, didn't have their best day or their best player either (JB). Not that its an excuse, we should beat Oman but this is football, these things happen. We know TM's strengths are in big games anyways. We have one against japan coming up and that will be a true gage of TM's situation atm. And now for the morons saying CQ must go....Guess what, he is the best we can get, morons like Ghotbi and GN failed to get us to WC 2010, CQ is an amazing coach for iran who has made Iran a big game side, and could care less about the fallout of drawing oman away from home in crappy weather in a second round WC qualifier. We will still go thru, no our team is not shit, calm tf down. This happens whenever one of our players gets subbed for his club team or they lose....ppl freak out and can't seem to realize what happens after they freak out....TM goes on to put in some good performances and get some good results.Especally with the professional mentality of CQ. We have a coach with a professional,stable mentality maybe its time for our fans to have one too

Heard Australia lost today...they should get rid of everyone in their team and start over..(PFDC members mentality)..lol

Natije masalei nist, in baazihaa maomolan khar to kharan, amma agar dar Azadi ba Oman khoob baazi nakonim bayad team zire soal beravad.

Blah blah blah, this is the same swan song as the one people sang when Iran tied Turkmenistan. Iran is not Argentina, and Oman is not Ireland. Investment or not, youth development or not, current TM has the firepower and capability and could've won today's game.

This is the best you can do? blah blah blah? Please be respectful. No one said that Iran is Argentina, nor that Oman is Ireland. You were suggesting that we should win all our matches in our region since we are #1 in Asia, and I was trying to draw you a comparison in another region. So don't try to make it sound as though people are drawing comparisons between Iran and Argentina or Germany.

And based on what logic do you feel that we should wipe the floor with all other teams, because we've had such a professional footballing culture in Iran for decades upon decades, and our footballers have been nurtured and developed from youth and .....??

I assume you believe that it is the coaching and nothing else that is cause for our sub-par performances from time to time, right?

[mahestan]

We all know that the FIFA ranking doesn't mean diddlysquat! No way TM is currently #1 in Asia, but does not mean she can't be with proper investment!! Also, being #1 in a region does automatically equate to wining all of your matches!! By your logic, since Argentina is currently the number one team according to FIFA ranking, she should be wining all of her matches!! Right??

By the way, News flash: The World Cup Champs lost to Ireland today!!

Blah blah blah, this is the same swan song as the one people sang when Iran tied Turkmenistan. Iran is not Argentina, and Oman is not Ireland. Investment or not, youth development or not, current TM has the firepower and capability and could've won today's game.

omg its so annoying reading the crap that gets written here sometimes! It wasn't a great performance but it wasn't such a bad result either. a draw away actually is more to our benefit.

australia lost 2-0 to jordan today!
these things happen, take it easy guys.

[football.club]

Win: Guam, India
Draw: Turkmenistan (not arab), Oman

The group is still open so there is no need to worry, but if TM continue like this I dont think we can qualify to the World cup. So far very weak!!
CQ has no other plan than parking the bus. When we start to deviate from this "parking the bus" tactic we lose (Sweden, Bosnia and more...)

I think you're a little biased in your views. Voria made a lot of mistakes, dude. Better than Heydari, but he had a lot of errant passes/bad dribbles. He played with more poise than most of the rest of the team, but flawless... Our entire team performed poorly today. It happens, let's move on instead of trying to isolate who was good, and who was bad. Our defense was mediocre as a whole, and the rest were poor. Let's not fingerpoint and cause hashieh. We will do better in the upcoming games.

Thanks for your view but who/what am I biased against/for? To me, our players sucked so much, Pouria's game appeared flawless. None of our defenders marked the Omani players and the rest of the players just lost the ball the whole time. The midfield was dominated by Oman and they should have scored a few goals if they didn't suck. We could score a lucky goal and I'm thankful for that but IMO, a 1-1 draw did not reflect the game! This is not creating hashiyeh. This is something they should work on to change. I'm very very happy that the Japan game is just a friendly or else, in the state we're in, we'd have been in real trouble!

Baba stop with your bullshit. Germany lost to Ireland today but they dont whine like you guys do.

LOL i like how people like you (blind people who dont watch games properly) compare our losses to the losses of bigger teams.

Germany didnt lose to Ireland because they cant make 3+ passess. They lost because the ball was just not going to the back of the net for them.

We lost to Oman because we cant pass, defend, hold the ball, score, run and so on and so on.

So wake up and stop making yourself feel better by comparing our loss to greater teams. They play well and they lose. We play horrible and we draw. We dont deserve the ranking or the score-sheets we get in football.

1. I thought under CQ our defense had become good?!! or does it only count when we park the bus??

2. Our defenders (except Vouria Ghafouri) all even sucked individually!

3. Oman could and should have scored more goals (In that sense, they sucked too)!

4. When our first dangerous goal chance (the only one?) comes after Oman's goal at minute 53, you've gotta say you have a disaster of a team!

5. Lack of friendlies is so obvious!

6. Our only flawless player was Vouria Ghafouri!

7. What the h*ll was Dejagah doing during the whole game, making fouls and picking on Omani players?

8. Hajsafi has to play in LAM/LW!! We are in need of Pouladi very badly!
