warm up talk for SOUTH KOREA and lebnon match

[oracle]

Shoja Khalilzadeh and Kanaani will start in the WC. I have seen people hoping that M.Hosseini and Pouraliganji will start.

Maybe those people forgot to look which players were warming the bench during WCQ in Bahrain?
That’s right, both Hosseini and Pouraliganji were warming the bench.

Pag was injured
if pag is healthy he must start

Hosseini was in the worst form of his career due to trabzonspor not playing him. PAG was injured/recovering.

Timing has really been helpful to Kanaani and Shoja.

We need to address the height issue in the world cup should we be grouped with the likes of Germans or Swedes or other tall teams. Shoja will not fit!

Sadly we have some short DFers . Majid hosseini and shoja are both same height . The only three tall ones I can think is PAG (1.87 and Kananizadegan ( 1.88m) and Siavash Yazdani (1.92). Siavash (not good enough) and PAG not sure if he is fit and can perform same as before.

So our DF right now is messed up !

He was a substitute against Bahrain and played 90 min against Cambodia(lol).
That's what you call a benchwarmer, not an injured player.

Timing has really been helpful to Kanaani and Shoja.

He was also invited later(while playing for Kayserispor) against UAE, S.Korea, Lebanon and Syria.
Warming the bench in all the games.

Baba you have it the other way around, Gholizadeh is better off the bench

[oracle]

Baba you have it the other way around, Gholizadeh is better off the bench

I am not sold on job scoring couple goals
Against 2nd maybe 3rd level Asian teams
. J can't dribble.. his shots are strong but barely goalies ever have to save them...how many goals our forwards have scored
Off his crosses?
Yeah he is good story been around big leagues
But he is just a name and u shall see in s.k match
We will be so much better with out him as he demands the ball
Too much and makes other stars disappear.
And that capitan arm band has story behind it too.
Instead of meditation or sardar(deserves it) fight over it
Skovic gave it to job to kill any beef.
Look at his tm production in all the games he has ever played
Stats don't lie... I am not sold over couple good games against Syria o Lobnon..
BUT IN THE WC
HE WILL START AND BE OUR CAPTAIN AND I WILL CHEER
FOR HIM.

About gholizadeh.
He is different player when sardar is around.
I know everyone is mad him including myself
Over his not passing the ball to medi and trying to score goals himself but when sardar is on the field he knows he can't do that ITS SARDAR TEAM MELLI.
Goli by far it's our best playmaker take him out of line up
There is nothing there skovic tried that and he realised his mistake
And inserted him right back in.

[M.U.F.C]

For Iran, yes. Since Pot 2 is on the line. For SK, not so much!!!

Iran will be in Pot 3 regardless of the outcome in next to games.

[M.U.F.C]

Is it worthwhile to call up your best players for these last 2 remaining matches after qualifying for the World Cup? I wonder if it's worth it or not. I am wondering for both Iran and Korea.

IMO It is worthwhile to call up most of your best players (not all) as long as you try at least 3 to 4 new players in each of next two games for the positions we have less depth. Also it does not matter to be in Pot 3 or Pot 4 for World Cup draw. As I said in my previous post, Iran will be in Pot 3 regardless of the outcome in next two games. What it matters the most for the draw is avoiding Germany and Netherlands from Pot 2.

[M.U.F.C]

Korea's stadiums have been near empty since 2020. It'll feel like a neutral stadium. Although South Korea never went through any lockdowns, the restrictions on how many can gather is very strict in certain areas.

Thank you for the info. The truth is that whenever the stadium is filled in Korea/Japan/China, the atmosphere is very amazing.
