Who else is missing Team Melli in Euro 2016 ?

Frank Ocean, which is worse: your singing or your thread?

As I stated Iran "can" beat a few teams. I still wouldn't put it against Iran to win a close game against any of those teams. Poland might be hardest test out of those teams, but we would still have a chance.

Iran would have a hard time winning a single game. Iran should focus on winning the Asian cup before we get to cocky about their ability

lol the damn arabs will never allow iran to win the asian cup.

Thanks for this thread bro. You made my day!

[Dreamer]

We should be very happy we're not a part of UEFA, else we'd have more difficulty making it to the World Cup than we already do.

Poland and Northern Ireland you are joking, right?
But you know what, I'm sure Iran would have turned Turkey into Pastirma/Basturma. Croats were unlucky not to win over them 10-0.

LOOL
You're not following the Euros are you

We almost beat Argentina. I don't understand why you think these teams are so much better.

Iran only lost 1-0 to Albania a few years ago and that was before CQ.

Have been watching every single Euro Game so far and just thought the same yesterday about TM participating in the Cup. With good Tactics from CQ we could easily at least be on the same level as 8-12 Teams in the Tournament! For example we should definately be able to beat Austria,Hungary,Russia,Ukraine,Island,Romania,Alba nia,Wales,Turkey,Ireland. Im not saying that well definately beat them but as said...with good tactics and a good performance as we showed against Argentina for example in 2014 we should have pretty good chance to go for a win against these teams. On a good day dont be surprised to even give Teams like Portugal,Switzerland and Croatia a good run for their Money!On the other side on a bad day all the above mentioned Teams can teach you a lesson. Regardless of our recent Asian Cup and WQC Performances.....WC 2014 showed us that we can compete with even the biggest Teams...Nigeria was Africa Champion as they faced us.....they failed to score....Argentina just missed the Title by a few inches....and only Messi made the difference....give Dejagah the deserved penalty and there you go Round of last 16!

The entire time I'm watching Euros, I'm thinking to myself, Team Melli is on the same level, at least, with several of these teams.
Maybe it's the carelessly optimistic Team Melli in my core, but how can you say that Team Melli is not on the same level as Albania? Iceland? I think it's safe to same that we are on the same level as Albania and Iceland.
Iran has beak Ukraine (1-0 back in 2003-2004), Russia 1-0 (a few years ago), and Slovakia 4-3 (back in 2001, Nikbakht-Vahedi with a hat-trick).
On a "good" day, Iran could hang with any of those teams, but on a "bad" day, Iran can lose to Lebanon. That's exactly what makes Team Melli so lovable, exciting, charming, and completely unpredictable.

It was the wizard who scored a hattrick on Slovakia.

Iran can beat Brazil and Argentina as well. But if I was a betting man, of the teams you listed there only Albania in it's present form would I bet large on Iran beating. The rest, sure their is a chance, as much a chance as perhaps Vietnam or Thailand has beating us presently. What saddens me, is that in 2 WC's Albania will be on par with Bosnia or Croatia and we will still be discussing skin and teeth qualification to WC.

Sweden is one of the weakest teams in this tournament, and we lost 3-1 to them. I think it says enough about how we would perform at EURO 2016. Although I admit we played an attacking game and didn't stick to our defensive mindset, or perhaps we would have tied Sweden.

So what could we expect from WC2018 except a 3rd/4th place in the group stage?
