Majid Hosseini and Ali Karimi @ Yukatel Kayserispor | 2022-2023

If all you see is vitriol then you are biased. What I would do differently is get fresh ideas in. No more CQ. Coaching jobs need to be earned. We hired CQ to be a coach...to win. He hasn't done it. All the other stuff biased folks like you argue are bonuses. Cq discovered players, set up this or that...who cares? His primary job is to win. His salary is to deliver results. How he does that is up to him...but he clearly has no results to speak of. Are we smarter more competent federation than the likes of Egypt or Colombia? How come we keep giving him chance after chance while no one else does?

Also yes, you had 2 matches to practice back 5. De Sa said they didn't do it and we all saw they didn't. Imagine any other profession at a critical moment you decide some new strategy...give it up with the CQ blind adoration. If I'm wrong Salah is wrong. If I am wrong Ronaldo is wrong. If I am wrong every FA cq has been at is wrong. Give it up! Vitriol my a$$. Like typical of a blind CQ supporters to attack his detractors. Surprised you aren't calling me bademjam or some other bs...biases biases biases. I mean now claims are made before CQ we never advanced out of AC group. All lies. In fact every AC but one since 1992 we were group winners. We had football before CQ and God willing we will have better days once this fraud is gone!

More importantly what we haven't seen from you or CQ faithful like yourself is one credible reason this guy has earned the privilege to continue as TM coach. No tangible results on the pitch which we have paid him millions for.

Forget that...just tell me why CQ was only coach to take 4 gk and leave a roster spot empty at Qatar 22? He must be smarter than 31 other coaches right? Lol fraud!

But this is what I mean! You can't just throw every insult at the man, ignore the good things, expect perfection (which is ridiculous considering what he has to work with), and then say: "Just WIN because we pay you!" C'mon man, use your critical thinking ability; no coach is perfect, even with the best players. I follow City, and I like Pep. Pep has screwed up so many times, but fans only know that in hindsight.

I don't know who is making excuses concerning the AC. It's not me, and don't bring it up in a conversation with me. Keep it relevant.

You keep bringing up peripheral reasons as to why he shouldn't be manager, and ignore all the great things he has done for team. For me, he made TM more professional, accountable on the field, and disciplined. That is tangible.I don't know how you can argue against it. Furthermore, he has brought the team to a state where we have a legitimate chance of getting a result against good footballing nations (e.g. Uruguay, who you so graciously keep mentioning). For me, that has not been the case with previous managers, or at least the chance of beating a big side was far less.

Btw, your absurd excuses of him with Egypt are getting tired. They make you look stupid. Egypt missed winning AFCON and qualifying for the WC in penalties against Senegal. Senegal is no joke. You make it sound like Egypt lost to a HS team.

And you know who missed a PK in that match. MO SALAH. So please, shutup about it already.

Furthermore, you know who wanted CQ to manage Egypt? Once again.. MO SALAH. (Please ask me for a source, so I can shut you up, again)

You know why MO SALAH didn't like CQ? Because CQ didn't include a player Salah wanted on the pitch. It's that simple, and that laughable. I like Salah, but he turns into a diva off the field.

Egypt isn't that great of a football power, and in context of CAF, they did well under CQ. They missed winning AFCON in PKs, and also missed-out on qualifying for the WC in PKs, both to Senegal. For me, that's not some catastrophic failure. Quite frankly, Team Melli is better than Egypt, at the moment.

And finally: who would you bring in, and what tactics should that coach employ? Furthermore, who should be called-up? I asked you this (in so many words), before, and you failed to answer. If you don't give something reasonable outside of the Homer Simpson response of frothing at the mouth like a fool: "DUR-HUR! COACH SHOULD WIN! DUR-HUR *SLOBBER SLOBBER* WE PAY DA COACH", then I'm just going to assume you're a hater, with little-to-no brains.

I know what the article said.
The point is that it didn't relay what you said it relayed; you said it stated they never practiced it.

Regardless, it doesn't matter at this point. And all I see from you is snarkiness and disdain for CQ. Okay.. everyone gets it. \

However, what I haven't seen from you (or anyone else who spews such vitriol, for that matter) is what you would do differently? Specifics.. not the generic "run a 4-4-2 and be more aggressive" rhetoric.

Article says we never attempted 5 back before. Not even during Senegal game and Uruguay...two chances to try it. Not like CQ didn't know England was our opponent right? So why wait till WC match to experiment?

Time...well all those who cried foul on Taj should be kissed and appreciated since they said this exact thing but so called PFDC Oracles and CQ apologists said this is CQ team. He only needs 5 minutes with them lolol

Uh.. that article doesn't say they didn't practice it. It quotes De Sa as saying they didn't have enough time, which is totally different. You insinuated it was never practiced, which doesn't seem to be true.

To be fair, CQ and the staff didn't have enough time (or friendlies) to implement much of anything with confidence. That being said, IMO, they should have gone with the most "vanilla" formation and tactics known to football: the 4-4-2. Against England, it really didn't matter who started at most positions.

Logic is being crippled by CQoolaide.

“Playing with five at the back, it was something that they [Iran] had never done before and we tried it out, we didn't have enough time to prepare and it failed … It was the game that the coaches put out and it didn't work at all,” admitted the coach.

“I must say that there was a stage when it got to 4-0, the only thing that you can think of on the bench is how do you stop the bleeding … I think the third and the fourth goal was so quick, you didn’t even have time to realize from 2-0 down to 4-0 that now this could be a record and we might be in the record book for the wrong reason,” he said.

lovely goal. He is finally playing after multiple years with bad injury troubles. For our standards he is a very technical, khosh-fekr CM. Too slow for the highest level, yes but if surrounded by the right pieces he can still be a great asset in AC and WCQ moving forward.

Also our only CM now playing at a respectable level in europe. Hope he can regain his starting xi place for rest of season and go from strength to strength

They lost 3-1.

Hosseini is out this game because of accumulated yellow cards. Karimi came in at the beginning of second half while they were down 2-0. He just scored a very nice goal from the top of the box after dribbling nicely past a guy and placing his shot nicely in the corner and out of reach of the keeper.

Makes sense. Saw the replay of the goal on twitter. Really nice goal

[Farzadfarhangni]

Ali Karimi on the bench today for them. Majid not even on the roster which is weird. Anyone know what’s up with him?
