Mehdi Taremi @ Inter Milan Season 2024/2025

[FeLFeL]

Here comes Mehdi for Lautaro 80th minute

[KasraKhan]

Nice pass by Mehdi to Thuram in the box, but Thuram can't get the shot off.

good dummy and set up to thuram from mehdi
defense cleared

Spa seems to be satisfied with losing 1-0 hardly pushing for the equalizer... hence not many chances on counter for Inter and our our boy ..!:/

ft 1-0
big win, inter very likely qualify to top 8 and on to next stage..!!

Thuram missed a sitter (much like Taremi's recently). It happens to the best.

[The]

They were given clear instructions to run out the clock in the last 10 minutes. There was no opportunity for Mehdi to do anything noteworthy

I wonder if the Frenchies are ripping Thuram on their forums the way some of you rip Taremi after he missed a "sitter"...And BTW, there are NO sitters in football. It happens to ALL OF US.

Iranians are often their own worst critics/enemies. We love to tear each other down. And it's passed down from generation to generation by our own parents/aunts/uncles/etc.

On this forum specifically a lot of the older members hate him I noticed because he doesn't have "gheyrat" and because of Portugal/Qatar games. Iranians in general are constantly comparing him to past players like Mahdavikia, Hashemnejad, Karimi, or some other legionnaire. Instead of appreciating that we have a player in a top 5 clubs in the world, they are constantly stuck in the past. The amount of times I've seen discussions downplaying his career and comparing it to a past player is crazy.

He has a bad stretch of a season and he gets jumped and disowned like he committed war crimes

I don't know who is more annoying Asian moms who compare your accomplishments to your cousins or Iranians who constantly circlejerk history 😭🤣

One question, how many goals does Thuram have this season and how many goals does MT99 have?

I love Mehdi, have been a big fan of him since his Rio ave stint.

But facts are facts and does not care about feelings.

It’s really not that deep. Not sure why people have to take such extreme stances. 2 things can be true at once. 1. Taremi is one of the greatest players Iran has ever had and 2. Taremi at Inter has failed and if we were not Iranian, we would not want to keep giving him chances either. Both of these statements can be true and idk why us fans are getting shamed for criticizing players we follow. As fans we have the right to come to a site like this and critique the guys that don’t know we exist but we follow their every move for years. I strongly disagree that we MUST ALWAYS glaze our players and MUST ONLY post positive things about them as if we are their parents. I think it is fair to celebrate when he has performances like the one against Milan AND criticize when he has performances like the other 90% of matches

TLDR: Taremi is one of the best things to happen to Iranian football AND he is not playing well at Inter

I was reading a few match reports of Taremi a few years ago...

His poor finishing has not changed. What has changed is he was not afraid to take wild shots. He was always hungry.
Now he is constantly cautious. He needs to believe he is better than all of his teammates. Once he's an arrogant monster, he'll be better.

Very true. This is exactly what Klinsman said about him as well yesterday.

Damn, I have noticed that Lautaro takes every opportunity he gets with the ball to shoot and also, for some strange reason, he manages to get most of his shots on target. I guess thats why he manage to socre lot of goals. I wish Mehdi had guts to take some shots.

[mehdi13]

Damn, some of you guys were really raised with participation trophies. Sad.

Way too early to say he has failed.
He is the 3rd choice which is where we expected him to be.
If he becomes 1st or 2nd choice, then he has punched above his weight and is ahead of the best striker from the world's no. 1 and no.2 national teams.
