Mehdi Taremi @ FC Porto | 2023/24

[BacheLot]

60plus min gone still no Mehdi ..

this GolTv announcer dude's english is dodgy AF and his commentary is nonsensically wack n all over the place
doesnt stop him from constantly kososhering though..!!
his only saving grace is that he likes and praises our boy every chance he gets..

[DR Strangemoosh]

Taremi comes on - quite a few boos and whistles from Porto fans but less than last game, mainly as it's an away match so less audible

Still that was a big kick in the balls for him to score the winner in the previous game to keep them in the battle for 3rd place, and then keep him on the bench for this long in his final league game in this club.

Galeno goal but VAR is looking at it

Great work by Taremi for the assist

[Clockwork]

Mehdi does not pass it forward blindly to the runner... he doesn't force it. Instead, he passes the defender to the left and plays an inch-perfect through ball for Galeno to curl into the far post. Our boy is one of the best passing forwards in the world, and I really mean it... I don't think there is a Persian bias.

Goal stands - wasnt offside

Taremi's assist was phenomenal, just saw it a few more times

[BacheLot]

on the breakaway, mehdi tries another velvet touch througball
this time touch was bit too heavy ... almost

[KasraKhan]

Really happy and proud of him for finishing the season strong through all the adversity. He's in good form now which will serve him well when he joins Inter.

FT 1-0 victory
mehdi with the decisive brilliant assist
putting khoreno 1v1 with keeper for the winner..!!

coulda scored too but khoreno and other teammates ballhogged way too much on the break instead of replicating his selflessness..!

Great assist by Taremi. More vision than all of Porto’s team combined.

F Porto and any of their fans who don’t like Taremi.

[Tarsal Claw]

Wow. Just wow. Brilliant pass by MT for the winner. The guy that was marking him, played horrible defense, and showed no effort, but nonetheless, that pass was just absolutely delicious. I hope he brings this form to Italy

[diz]

Great angle of the assist. He threads the needle of the defense like a seasoned sartorial magician.

[inarsenewetrust]

very difficult pass to first imagine (given the other obvious options that were there - none of which would have resulted in such a clear opening but certainly would have been explainable decisions) and then execute. Ozil-esque.

We are really fortunate that both sardar and mehdi are great passers/high IQ CFs. Complimented by the speed of mohebbi in behind and if we get the midfield combo right (emergence of hosseinNejad, hopefully more regular PT of Saman, emergence of ghorbani) we can still definitely cause most teams issues...

GN bigger problem will be introducing younger profiles to the backline and providing a respectable structure for these guys to do damage.
