Masoud is officially our Captain

[Farhad21]

Nice haircut 😎

[Iranianarsenal11]

I have a weird feeling he's gonna go off tomorrow!! Hope I'm right!!!

[Bandar Hamal]

Please don't play like how you did in WC 2014 where people in Iran were cussing you out. I really don't want to hear the people at the viewing party foosh bedan.

-Don't do silly dribbles like you did against Argentina

-Don't make dumb fouls

-Don't go for the glory and PASS

Best of luck!

in 2014 he created some of Iran's best chances against Argentina

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does this guarantee him a starting spot? Or are we just assuming.

This doesn't guarantee him being a starter. However, the fact that Saeed is suspended and Ashkan not being fully fit - pretty much guarantees he'll start.

as much as I love Massoud, he aint a good fit for starting tomorrow's game, especially so as a DM...! CQ should save him up for (Spain and Portugal starts) and some minutes off the bench in 2nd half of tomorrow's game , if offensive need be..!! Or move him further up the pitch in more of a CAM position..!!
massoud is simply too lightweight as DM and he is very likely to get bullied physically, too eager to push-upfield so he could get caught out on the breaks and likely to be rushed into making errand passes that could turn out costly..!

for Morocco game, CQ needs to push up Cheshmi to partner HajSafi at DM and use Pejman in his place at CB..! Using Massoud again as DM is gonna be a HUGE Liability and even unfair to massoud who simply isn't cut out for such a position nor have the knack for it..!

[Sam van Dam]

its always been masoud, after all he's the one that presented ali daei with a jersey in turkey.

[scuderia]

This probably means that Dejagah won't play much at all.

i feel that dejagah would be subbed in around 60th minute and either him or hajsafi will wear the captains band

With the game vs Turkey I would say Dejagah was the better player vs Shoajei!

agreed! even tho masoud was out of position.

the team really meshed together once dejagah, ghoddos, and gucci came in.

[Irandoust]

You said it Ghermez agha.

[Irandoust]

From the build up and all the way to finishing shot, it was a great football all around.

I don't think masoud is starting at CDM tomorrow. I think it's going to be Ebrahimi at CDM with Hajsafi and Masoud in front of him.

Dej should start. Subbed out and not subbed in. given the potential injury it would makes sense to sub out rather than sub in.
Haj safi never opens his mouth. so better to not have him as captain. He may not speak english...

Hajsafi should not take free kicks. Not sure why he did repeat it. Dej also should avoid those long balls and free kicks. Pulling a hamstring again is possible...

[Adesor Vafaseya]

Shojaie played in Spain for a few years.

A good choice to interface with the Iberians.

How is he with free kicks?
