If Karim's going to play center forward or behind Saman (as CF) in the center of the 3 behind him, I do like to see this combination. Shojaei, Ezi as DM's nice combination as well. Defensive line is obviously still getting fine tuned and let's see what Torabi does against a half decent opposition.

Overall, I would have liked to see a much more solid and less experimental side at this stage of our preparation but it's pretty obvious CQ is still playing catch-up and trying things IMHO that should have been tried in the 3 matches we played after qualification.

Hopefully, we'll be caught up after this match so if that ends up being the end result it will prove to be a decent PREPARATORY line-up - fingers crossed.

Agreed. He's still clearly using these games to assist with player selection and to test a few ideas. I feel like it's a little late for that, but this is Iran, after all.

So Shojaei as CDM or Ghoddos?!!!! Maybe neither and we'll play with only Ezatollahi as CDM, which makes this line up the most attacking line up I've seen during CQ's era!
