Branko Ivanković Appreciation Thread

[diz]

Thank you Branko. You are a great IPL coach. enjoy your rewards, but please stay in your lane and leave CQ alone so he too can win with TM.

[irani8perspolis]

Ill take 1 cq over 100 branko

I would too, but that doesn't mean we can't appreciate what he has accomplished with this team.

I don't know why people are hating, 1x ACL semi-final, 1x ACL final, 2x League champion..... he is the most successful Persepolis manager of the PGPL era.

I know, it's a dumb mentality. I appriciate both managers where they exactly are and what they're doing for Iranian football.

Agreed, I feel as if the fans in between all this are children of the divorced parents (Branko and Carlos)

I bow down and say my prayers to a small figurine of CQ behind numerous lit candles in my bedroom on a daily basis but I've seen enough PP games of late to know that their team is absolute shite through and through outside of Beira and that for Branko to get them to the ACL final is a top achievement.

Would be lovely if him and CQ could quash their beef and work in harmony but alas, it won't happen.

Nobody says he's a bad coach. This "either you hate branko or hate CQ" mentality is so dumb and doesn't promote objectivity. He's a good coach for Asian standards and did well for IPL and ACL. However, that's where he reaches his limit. I'm totally happy having him promote our league and our clubs as he is making it better for sure but I want him nowhere near TM.

Branko wins back to back championships and takes PP to the ACL final.


Iranians be like:” but but 2006. He’s a fluke”

Shireh Branko.

the haters will hate because they are ignorant of the facts and think they know better than the fucking guy who has been coaching for 25 fucking years.

Perspolis had no business being here. the ONLY reason they are here is Branko. You don't have to believe this, just wait until Branko is gone and let's see how long it will take Perspolis to reach this point again.

Especially on a freaking APPRECIATION THREAD! Come on what ever happened to respect? Like I said I give the players credit to, but it was the manager who puts the player in the starting 11!

Persepolis's win should be because of coach, players, and fans.

I am happy Persepolis won. In the past, many close games have gone against our teams. This is a proud moment for us.

[BacheLot]

almost nothing in today's game suggested it was the tactical mastery of the coach that is responsible for the result..!
if i had to pick out the most influential was the ruckus proverbial 12th man..!! and PP players laying all on the line to clinch final birth..!!

i dont want to see brangoh anywhere near the TM coaching position EVER AGAIN, regardless of what he ever does in PP or elswhere..!!In fact, a small part of me was ok with PP loosing today, if that meant just that..!

[Ali Doust]

Brankos success is kind of a fluke.

Had they not had been sanctioned from fifa. This would be another year where Iranian teams make bunch of moves in the offseason and lose all the team chemstry in time for the second part of the champions league(which falls into the next season) We have had good oppertunities whith different teams over the year but the constent changing of personels wether it being managers or players will never give time for real team chemstry. Which is what PP has right now. This PP team is the same team that picked up the pieces when R.I.P Hadi Norouzi the captain of PP passed away. The team came together and played together for Hadi and that same mentality has taken them this far. Branko just happened to be at the right place at the right time.

Wait, wait... Improved the fitness? The guys were out of puff at what? The 70minute? The goal they conceded was embarrassing. Guys u are exaggerating. I'm glad Perspolis and therefore Iran won. But that wasn't Brankos credit. I was a bit of luck and the one of the best goalies at the moment our very own Beiranvad.

which was an error between two players. Nothing to do with fitness. Yes, if you watched the game you would notice a clear difference between this years PP and last years PP, even though that version had more quality. They were able to close down spaces even late in the game to prevent al sadd from getting many clear cut opportunities. There is no doubt they rode their luck at times, but to give Branko no credit would jsut be petty
