I agree whit almost everything you wrote besides that our football wont change whit a new government, if we flush I.R down the toilet and install a new iranloving government instead of a iranhating" let this land burn as long as islam prevails " government we will get all of those things you wrote and our football also would get infrastructure, youth acadamies, proper people in the federation that have footballKNOWLEDGE instead of I.R apes that dosent know the difference between football and lacrosse and last but not least it will also open the door for more good quality foreign coaches to be willing to live and work in a free Iran that can help us build and educate our own coaches so we can learn and invest that in our own leauge so our vatani coaches get better quality wich will lead to much better players in our domestic leauge.Originally posted by Nokhodi View PostComposure and consistency. We don't have that.
Let me put it it this way.
Qatar will play a similar level of football 4 times out 5. It may not be the best football, they may not have a player who can ever perform on a world elite level, but they know what they're comfortable with and what they can perform. They know their limits too and work to mitigate those. They don't surprise unless their opponent underperforms.
Iran on the other hand, has a very high capability. Iran is a team that as we're all very aware can put together a world class performance one game, and then lose any focus and completely s**t the bed the next game. That is what happened today.
Even with our players disappearing, wrong tactics, and elementary mistakes, we still were competitive. A TM that performed even at 50% capability today would have won. We didn't have that. Because Mitoma and Kubo were in our pockets last game, we think Afif can't do that.
So again, Lack of composure and consistency due to mental weakness.
Now I'm going to say something that is going to upset some here. Iran needs a new government. None of us here like the regime. Changing the regime and replacing it with a proper government (big ask, I know) would result in an improved economy, standard of life, personal freedoms,... but it won't change the football!
Why? Simply because our coping and problem solving skills (regardless of ideology) for most of us are way too hot and cold. Just look how we treat kids who make mistakes. Look how we sulk, or how we have the worst fights and then make up with gol o shirini the next day. That doesn't lead to people who can make good decisions under pressure consistently. It doesn't lead to stoicism in the face of adversity. It's a lot of hot air.
Even our players who have spent the vast majority of their careers in Europe can't really overcome these issues.
Until we fix that, we will have these failures at high pressure moments.
Good results in tough moments for us in football, as long as we're like this, will be nothing but exceptions to the rule.
GN: 5 - his starting line up was correct, however Qatar immediately changed their formation and GN didn't adjust. The tactics in the 2nd half (first 20 min) were absolutely correct. We then went to long ball football and that was wrong and rushed with so much time left.
Beiranvand - 4 - his positioning is off. I don't care about his distribution issues, that's part of the game when you build up, I can't stand that he is in the wrong place on weak shots so often.
Ramin - 5 - he was ok defensively but killed us on the offside, and his crosses were so poor. Unacceptable at this level. Would prefer he slowly be phased out thorugh qualifers.
Kanaani 5 - his legs are gone. He is too stationary and always backtracking when speedy players press.
Shoja - 7 - He was very good. Covering for Omid and Kanaani and others who were often out of position. Had no choice on the red.
Hajisaif - 5 - very poor. Wrong choice for a team that was going to run direct at him and use the wings. Another to be phased out through qualifiers.
Ebrahimi - 3 - Should not have been selected. Was very poor. Time to retire. Thank you Omid. Both goals were his fault.
Ezatollahi - 7 - had a couple of brain farts, but he was winning alot of balls, distributing well...
Saman - 5 - he was a 3 in the first half, and 7 in the 2nd half. So many chances wrecked in the first half because his touch disappeared.
Jahanbakhsh - 7.5. He was our MOTM. Composed. Would give him higher but his crosses were so bad. That shot that hit the post - that is the summary of Iranian football
Still can help TM in the future.
Taremi - 3 - where were you man? So disappointing. However he should not have been subbed off. He has enough quality that one moment of brilliance would have gotten us an equalizer.
Azmoun - 6 - great goal, not serviced well.
Mohammadi - 7 - He was able to handle Afif better than his predecessor.
Mohebbi - 6.5 - wish he took his man on but he can't. At least he physically gave the Qataris a challenge.
Asadi/Moghanlou - no good. I get the plan was high balls, but these 2 were rendered useless because the quality of our crosses were so poor.
Look forward to the gradual rebuild. It is going to be a roller coaster probably. Be prepared for football similar to what we saw from 2008-2011.
TM broke our hearts again, but like an idiot, I'll continue to cheer for and support them.
The mental part will also get better when coaches properly knows how to install that in our players from a very young age in a democratic Iran whitout all of the s*it they grow up whit in that cage of a society.
Our Iran is in real shambles and our football is a tiny reflection of it.
If we ever want to see happiness as a nation I.R must go down in the trashcan just like in Ardalans avatar, no Ifs and buts, I.R is a cancer in every departement in Iranian society.
Our mentality is so fu*ked up because of the cage and djungle I.R Iran is.Comment

We started complaining about the ref before it started and if anything he gave a very harsh penalty for us, and gave Shoja a yellow initially. Our players went up 1-0 then chose to turn on the ref and completely collapsed in the first half ?! Who does that when a goal up wtf man. Zero composure.Originally posted by Abtin View Post
we started pointing fingers before the start of the match , when in reality we Only Have ourselves to blame!
it takes a special type of fucked up weak mentality to collapse after scoring a goal EARLY against the host nation… all the pressure was on them.
on top of that, we also jsut we’re so unlucky man that’s what hurts. Their deflection goes in, but how on earth JB’s shot ddint hit the post and go in, is beyond me.--------------------------Beiranvand-------------------

What I'm saying is the cultural issue is around longer than regime. It was there before, and it will be after.Originally posted by Artaxerxes View Post
Again, look at how Iranians who have grown up outside of Iran (and are anti-IR) react to day to problems. Screaming, yelling, hot and cold....
It is not meant to be a defense of IR. We shouldn't miss the forest for the trees.

I always say this. Historically our teams mental collapse in important games has been the biggest barrier. Our teams seriously need to start thinking of hiring psychologists for the players and even the coaches. Most Persian Gulf Arab teams know this flaw and well know how to take advantage of it.Originally posted by Ostad_Goosfand View Post
