CQ revealed his true intentions and goals for the WC

yes. Shojaei wouldnt be suitable for that formation. He would rather be a good sub to slow the game down, if we want to defend the result; which is neccessary at times!

btw, Michael Cox intreprets the line up of Queiorz exactly as I did!!!..hehe....
except he calls it 4-4-1-1 whle I called it 4-4-2 with ashkan hanging behind Gucci, which is the same thing.

its a good read, I just saw it in general forum in TM news thread.
ignoring Shojaei in the line up, the rest is exactly as I have interpretated... he might be spying on me, he published it one day after my post here

i do not believe the colors had anything to do with CQs selection but I have my suspicions about Nekonam's influence.

There is widespread rumor than Nekonam has a great control over TM and CQ (something like Daie's control over Branko) and that is the main reason why players like Karimi were sidelines.

I initially supported Karimi's inclusion as a possible late substitution. However, I think for the sake of team unity, his exclusion is probably justified. He has an "alpha male" personality that tends to clash with others.

I have watched TM in all its previouse world cup games....I have never felt as good about TM defense as I do now.
