Syria - Iran game

[Doctor DOOM]

My take on the game :

First half :
Pretty shoddy job by almost the whole team.
The team looked very loosely incoherent and too cautious.
Nothing much to say about the 30-35 minutes I saw. ( I missed the first 10-12 minutes )

-----------

Second half1- Sattar ( Mr. turn-over) zarehbehind ONE HAND !!
My good god, the guy is solely responsible for about 80% of our turn-overs and loss of possessions !! How bad can you get in passing a ball? Really !

2- Sadeghi
He, too, was in poor form , again. Although a bit less invisible for his one pass and one shot. But one pass and one shot shd never justify a player playing for 90 minutes and doing next to nothing !

3- Shojaei training sessions . But judging from what we see in the games ( which matter far more than the sessions), I say Jabbari deserves to start games waaayyy before shojaei.

Also, this is the third or fourth consecutive game where shojaei is assigned as the player for set pieces !!! and we still see over-hitting of balls that fly past everyone !
If this had happened in the first game, we could excuse the wrong decision to keep him the responsible player for set pieces.
Second game this happens, we could say ok, maybe he has learnt his lesson and the coach has instructed him what to do and what not to do.
But there is NO EXCUSE for such wastage of set pieces and poor kicks by the third or pathetically, the fourth games !!!
The guy is NOT good at set pieces. Either assign someone else or bring someone else in to take care of them.
This is the lajbaazi we talk about.


4- Nekunam
The guy is on his way back to his old high performance self. We can clearly see the improving trend in his performance with each passing game. He performed quite well today and I guess we can now claim the old nekunam is back.

5- Rahmati 6- Zandi
He is hungry and a very classy player. Intelligent with a good sense of football. But he is NOT physically in shape for more than 45 minutes. Something has to be done.

Bottomline:

[zzgloo]

Bright sides were :

A-Rahmati,Kabei,Nekonam,Aghili,were graet..................
B-Rezai,Zandi,shojaee,Zare,Hossaini were accepeteble..........
C-TM is workeing together a little better..................
D-Ali Daei is finding out about 4-4-2 !

Negatives :

A-TM has a very elementary offense...........( They could not create decent chances against even a demoralized third rate team ).
B-coaching misread the opponant in the first half again.....
C-Syria had lost its sole in the secound half, and we should have done more.

Bottom Line :...Congradulations for qualification.....But we are still way behind!

[Nokhodi]

I think we all pretty much have the same viewpoints about the game.
1st half absolutely terrible.
2nd half, much better performance. The players were finding empty space and running at the right times.
I don't think Sadeghi is a bad player, but his lack of speed takes away from all other aspects of his game. Although good on him for the assist.
Nekounam was just great. Every time the Syrians got near him I knew he could take the ball.
Shojaei is very very weak physically. If he was a bit stronger he would win out on a lot of these 50/50 balls he loses and he could keep going for a longer time.
The main problem in my opinion still is lack of speed, especially in transition. The only moment we were ok in that was when we scored the last goal, although by then Syrians were crushed.

Overall I think the progress our team is making should be expected as the players are playing more and more alongside each other. Daei's inclusion of so many new players should give hope and motivation to many who for years saws TM being dominated by the same players.
This team now needs some solid friendlies, including a couple where we may lose heavily so our players can be ready against more speedy, physically ready and technical teams. Lets give this team time, and hope they will get the necessary tools needed for preparation and that they come out in the next round and surprise us all with great games and victories and eventual qualification to WC 2010.

[Doctor DOOM]

Nokhodi jan, I dont say sadeghi is a "bad player".
but at present, his form and performances have been VERY POOR.

every GREAT player will have a down time and low period. even the greatest of them. now, sadeghi may be as great as ronaldinho for all I care. but when he isnt producing, he is not called in or BY GOD NOT GIVEN STARTING POSITION. ronaldinho didnt get it, why shd sadeghi get it?


and my point is at present we have players ( albeit extremely "inferior" to our super-star sadeghi ) who ARE IN FORM and playing well. why shd they sit on the bench or not be called up, while he starts each and every game?

what's the logic in that ?

once our great sadeghi regains his magnificent form which rivals kaka and deco, then he can get called up or start games.
but NOT NOW.

[Mr.Good]

I have one question for Dr. Doom,

Lets assume Sadeghi is not inform. who do you suggest from the current squad to replace him, Teymorian? he is been out form also. Or should Daei call up new players? Do you propose that we change the squad every time a player is not in form and someone else is in form?
we all know that every players has his ups and downs of form. So if a coach like Daei is building a squad for the long term goals (Which I'm sure he is doing that), then he can not switch players and change the squad every other week.

[The-Red]

Jobe well done.
team needs much much work, abviously..
I still don't see enough in this team that can give me much hope of being in south africa in 2 year's time, but I have seen improvements in the last 3 games and that's a sign of better performances maye be coming..Daie is learning and that's good, he is recognizing his mistakes and acting upon them...however, we must still call up Kia, karimi and Hash for the next round, assuming they are fit and ready to join team with full-heart.

[yashar_fasihnia]

i was very disappointed in shojaei this game. he seems to either lack stamina or motivation or both!

sattar zare is clearly our weakest link in defense, although our other 3 defenders havent been doing much better themselves. i dunno if the other candidations are any better than he is though, but i wouldnt mind seeing guys like nosrati and asadi tried there.

i would also like to say, the 2nd goal was a result of our 3 above IPL standard players doing wat they do best:

andranik tackling and hustling for the ball and taking it in front,
jabbari giving one golden pass which immediately gets rid of all 3 syrian defenders,
and khalili finshing the golden opportunity.

the 3 players, 2 of which were ali daeis subs, were at the right positions at the right time and did the right thing they had to do, and we got a goal!

i know it sounds simple, but if our players really did wat they had to do, and had the quality as well, our TM can do really well!

[Mr.Good]

we should not forget that this team did not have a training camp or any long term training given it is a new team with uncoordinated players. In my opinion our first few games where like friendly games for us where different players were being tested in different positions. Remember in Bahrain friendly and then for the game against Kuwait we had different lineups. only after the UAE game that our lineup started to stabilize.

now that we are qualified, we need to go into the Kuwait game in two weeks as a friendly game, then giving a couple of weeks rest to the players and by then hopefully the draw would have been made and we will know who are we going to face. Then Daei will need to have a training camp for at least a month away from our cancerous media where the team can practice and have few friendly games.

[Doctor DOOM]

I have one question for Dr. Doom,

Lets assume Sadeghi is not inform. who do you suggest from the current squad to replace him, Teymorian? he is been out form also. Or should Daei call up new players? Do you propose that we change the squad every time a player is not in form and someone else is in form?
we all know that every players has his ups and downs of form. So if a coach like Daei is building a squad for the long term goals (Which I'm sure he is doing that), then he can not switch players and change the squad every other week.

Thank you for very good questions.

Let me start from the bottom, first

1- If the player is having a low period, depending on the track record of the player, I would either bench him or just plain replace him with another outsider. but will definitely NOT continue to START with him game after game and give him 90 minute games.
definitely not.


2- Yes, I expect a coach to tinker with his line up if someone is not performing. why did you ask that question? would you ask why does a coach SUB a player also? isnt that the exact tinkering we're talking about?
a part of ur machine is not working. you replace it with another. by persisting with the defective part you are NOT helping the machine's efficiency.


3- Why shd he be replaced by teymoorian ( unless we remove nekunam as well ) ?
in this last game we saw how more efficiently nekunam operated without getting tangled with a player with similar duties ( another def-mid ).
why shd we create ( or re-create ) the mess of 2 def-mids when they interfere in each other's duties and get in each other's way?

it goes even more fundamental than just names, for me.
I say why shd we play with 2 def mids in the first place (unless we are playing fantastically offensive teams like holland, portugal, brazil, .... and we need reinforcement in defense and midfield. but in asia, that too against B and C grade teams? NOT NEEDED ). and we have two very good players for the post: nekunam and ando.
at present neku beats ando hands down. when he isnt in form, we can use ando.


5- whom to use instead?
when we have a fantastic player like JABBARI sitting on the bench while sadeghi ambles around the pitch and appears & disappears as he likes, I'd say that's criminal waste of talent.

from outside?
we have many other MORE DESERVING players like Karimi, Mobaali, Kazemian, ... etc.


===========================

btw, who is TM's fitness trainer ?
why didnt Daei use Komaasi ?
Komaasi did a magnificent job with GN's team to AC07.
simply marvelous.

a team that for a few years was KNOWN to run out of gas ( even in the best of conditions ) and one of its biggest deficiencies was lack of physical stamina, was transformed into a team that ran like mad, even for 120 minutes, and in horrible conditions too.

why cant we use our experience and see when something has worked before, we use it again.
whoever is TM's phys-trainer, is obviously not doing a good job at all. look at zandi. he still runs out of gas after 45 minutes.
and there are others too.

what is this inane and infuriating lajbaazi that gets in the way of TM achieving its potential?
what's wrong with using the predecessor's trainer?
chizi azat kam misheh?
na , be khoda.
etefaaghan, kheili ham ziyaad misheh.

what is this childish insecurity that forces us to go the wrong way, as long as its a different way from our rival/predecessor/whatever ?

[Martin-Reza]

Sadeghi indeed had some unnecessary turnovers too many, but what we forget is that he was extremely active and dangerous in second half and that he created and directly assisted the very important first goal.

I also need to defend Zare again. He played the fourth consecutive game as leftback and for the third consecutive time we did't concede a goal and I personally must say I was satisfied with him - especially considering we had no real leftwinger and Zare had to participate a lot in offense and yet close down his side.

[Doctor DOOM]

hah !
concession of goals shd never be an alibi or excuse for a defender failing his duties.
it could mean many things, like :

1- if you watch the games again, you'd see how AGHILI is run ragged trying to cover his zone as well as zayeh's due to zareh's constant failure to block or intercept his man.

no wonder we see aghili get frustrated and commit more fouls than necessary. becoz he is in the same position that rahman was put due to badavi's constant missing in his post.
here, zareh is in his post, but is incapable of defending.

it's clear as day.


2- we also didnt concede becoz if you look at the games, the opponents didnt have good strikers. how does that justify zareh's failures ?
otherwise we saw great many crosses and passes and penetrations into our defense line from the left side, which DIRECTLY INDICATE the failure of the left side in blocking them.

3- rahmati also has been in great form. but how does that justify zareh's failures ?

no matter how we like to twists the truth, we just cant fight reality.
and the reality is that zareh has been a COMPLETE ( not even partial or average or .... ) FAILURE at LB.
COMPLETE.


look at how teams like kuwait, syria and uae penetrate and exploit this side. look at how often and easily their coaches discover our weakest zone and make it their autobahn for attacks. they pass the guy, or round him, dribble him, outrun him, .... as easy as a walk in the park ! and these arent even the A grade asian teams.

wanna discuss how he'll be torn to shreds against the tough, burly aussies? against the pacey koreans? against the technical japanese ans saudis?

-------------------

and all that is about half of his duties, which is defending.
wanna talk about his passing also? and his rate of turn-overs and loss of ball possessions ?
at least his passing and other magnificent attributes shd compensate for this failure to defend ( we've seen coaches try this ). but he fails in passing also !!!!! for god's sake, WHAT DOES HE BRING TO THE TABLE ?

heh ! I think in all these 4 games, you wouldnt find as many as 20 correct passes by him !
not even 20.
why shd a coach persist with a player who goes on surrendering the ball to the opponent again and again, hence putting even more pressure on his team?
( sometimes I wonder if daei needs glasses and his eyesight may be weak )


if he cant cope with syrian attackers, he has a snowball's chance in hell against the A grade attackers.
is he even defensible?
I shd not think so. alas ...... !



----------------

there is another factor about zareh too.
main team defenders as a general rule wear numbers from 2-5 and the subs/alternatives, anything from 12 - ... .
zareh is wearing 8.
who used to wear the 8 ? karimi.

is daei trying to say something here?
is he trying to irritate karimi?
I'd have brushed it aside as a non-issue had daei not said "we dont need karimi" recently.
is there something going on here ?
why give your best player's number to your worst ?
is there a point being made here ?

these are the EXACT same traits branko showed with his ridiculous gaffs and moronic claims about a player being the weakest in the team exactly when he was the better performing one. or claiming a player doing great when it was clear he was floundering and failing. not to mention his lajbaazi and illogical insistence on the wrong players no matter how many times they are proven to be the bad choices.
exactly the same traits and behavior here !!!

Thanks for your reply,

The question was, given the squad that we have. Assuming that Daei selected his players based on some tactics he had in mind. don't talk about bringing new players to camp. That was the question. Daei has 26 players in hand, and he wants squad harmony. Do you think he should replace players from outside the squad every other game when a player has a down period?

Benching is always a possibility, but from the current squad who you think should replace Sadeghi? Someone with similar qualities. Jabbari does not work , because he lacks big time in defensive qualities. Moving Shojaei to the right side is not that good of an idea unless you have two defensive midfielders to cover behind him. The only other option in Teymorian, but according to many, he is not in form also. Do you see the problem here? Sadeghi is the best choice and he proved it. He hustled so much and was always running in free spaces to receive passes and give passes.

Have you ever considered why Kaebi does not have trouble covering the right side, but Zareh has trouble covering the left side. did you ever check to see who is playing in front of them? Kaebi always had Kia, and now Sadeghi who are good in defensive phase of the game. But poor Zareh never had some one to help him. I remember a scene in second UAE game where there were two players attacking from our left side, Zareh covered one of the players, and Shojaei was marking the other one, Then Shojaei totally let go of the his mark, and they started passing the ball around Zareh, Tell me if it was Zareh fault now.
(btw, it is not nice calling Zareh names, He is there because he was called to the camp and he is fulfilling his duties toward his country, why call him names? I expected better from F+ members)

[Doctor DOOM]

1- the squad is not fixed. and the coach can bring in new players and replace the present ones.

any player can have an off game. nobody replaces players with just one game.
but when he is having a 2 month off period, then it's time to replace him.

2- jabbari has indeed proven you wrong again and again.
I dont know what games you watched but from what I see from sadeghi and jabbari, you can replace sadeghi with a wooden stick and you wont get much of a difference in the outcome.
secondly, jabbari can do many things in far superior manner than sadeghi can even imagine.

my god, an out of form ando would still be an upgrade from this sadeghi.
plz watch the games again.


3- kaabi doesnt have trouble ?
havent you seen how many crosses land in his side ?
it's a different matter that we've been facing inferior strikers who cant take advantage of all this, but put a japanese or suaid striker where the uae, syrian and kuwaiti strikers were and you'd see plenty of goals scored off kaabi's side as well.

THIS, my friends, is a clear case of IMPORTANT ISSUES BEING SWEPT UNDER THE RUG.
friends , just becoz they dont see goals scored, suddenly think our defense has been brilliant !
or just becoz our team wins a game, suddenly the team has performed excellently !

I suggest all of you WATCH the games again.
this time, you know the result, so your attention is not diverted towards what happens next. you dont have any stress either.
this time, for example watch how many times zareh is rounded and driblled or out-run .
or how many times kaabi's found wanting on his side as a defender.

dont go by the number of goals, coz that does NOT give you the correct picture. korean , japanese and ... strikers will NOT be as incompetent as the ones we've faced.

this attitude reminds me of a couple of years back, when many fans became so c0cky about TM's supposed unbeaten record that they never noticed the quality of opposition chosen for those records ... until we faced good quality teams and all our deficiencies were exposed !

===========

as I said in another post, we call players for what they bring to the table and the team.

when a defender cannot block or intercept the opponent, he is NOT fulfilling his primary objective. now, we have coaches who choose a player for defense, not so much for his defensive skills, but other attributes like offensive or passing or pace or heading or ... whatever.

again, zareh is not bringing anything else to the table. apart from his defending failing him, his passing also is failing him. so I wonder why is this guy there?
I mean, even if we keep some guy like borhani ( who is a wasteful player ) as LB, you still will not go very wrong compared to zareh.
forget borhani. if we keep mirzapoor as LB we still wont do that wrong.
afterall, he will probably end up getting out-run, rounded and dribbled .... much like zareh.
but at least borhani may bring in speed in counterattacks , which zareh cant.
or mirza can bring in height advantage, which zareh cant.

I am very serious. what happens if we replace zareh with someone totally unlikely like the little kolahkaj or oladi or .... ? NOTHING.
no difference. I mean you dont get worse than zero. but you have a possibility of +1 !


the point is I'm sure zareh and sadeghi are ok players and they try to do their job.
and sometimes, they do something out there.
fine.
but that is good for CLUB level.
NOT FOR NATIONAL LEVEL.
at national level you shd bring in a player who has NO BETTER among the rest. who produces MORE than anyone else. not just average players with average production. if we want average, we have 100's of average players at IPL.

[Mr.Good]

1- I know the squad is not fixed, but no coach on his right mind will change the squad every other game.
Again TM only played three games in one month after it got assembled, where did the two month come from?

for all that I care Jabbari can fly, but he cannot DEFEND.

2- Ball land in Kaebi area, because they are sent from the other side, most unbalanced and weak teams usually have stronger right side, that is one of the reasons they attack from Zareh's side and when they cross the ball, it will end in Kaebi's side. This means nothing.

The idea was that if you have a strong man like Teymorian or Sadeghi on right midfield, then behinde them you have the fast Kaebi, few teams will be able to penetrate from that side.
