The 24th Persian Gulf Pro League® | 2024 - 2025

[Super Shojaei]

Pp should be banned for football for life after the whole bahoui fiasco. They should be disqualified from afc or relegated to lower division in PGL. Kasif Tarin teame Tarikh hastid. Ye roozi belakhare gande hame karatoon dar Miyad. Chandta jaame snapi baba masoud o Taj be nametoon zadan ?

What happened with bahoui? Was an odd signing to begin with tbh

[Nokhodi]

If Yahya don't come
Long shot he come
Karim will be on bench against sepahan sj,
Za and tt in the league

The more I think about it the more I think we should keep Bagheri - if we can't get Yahya or a truly elite coach.

Any coach other than Yahya would need time to figure out the team, how Iran works...
As you're aware we have an extremely difficult February. With the way things are we don't have a great chance as we can't get any new players.
If Sir Karim can get good results in the PGPL and ACL games then I think he will have done enough to be considered head coach permanently.

If he fails, that's ok. At that point we should rebuild entirely in the summer.

Man you guys run the federation and you have the audacity to say such things? Your team gives US dollars to domestic players, comes up with fake contracts for their wives... all to hide costs.

You don't think it's a coincidence this happens the week Darvish criticizes Taj and the federation?

sepahan is cleanest team in Iran. You guys are all brainwashed. Pp and Ss are most rigged teams in Iran. VAR sefareshi baratoon gozashtan. Open your fuxking eyes.

I'm going to try and do a summary of what's happening week by week in the league in this thread. Most is what I've just read in papers, or learned from the football 360 podcast.

- Persepolis is about to sign a French manager. I don't believe it but that's the rumor.
- Esteghlal cancelled training for 8 days. Fans are upset as Mosimane kept saying they have coniditoning issues, and this would have been the time to fix it.
- Most teams will have winter training in Kish Island. Foolad and Malavan will go to Dubai.
- IRIB Khuzestan finally upgraded broadcasting in Ahvaz. The games in Avhaz don't make you sick anymore. Just compare production of last year's Malavan-Foolad game, compared to the one from last week
- Azadi stadium's west wing is complete. However work needs to continue on the south, north, and east wings, and finally the pitch. I will make a separate post about that as I find it interesting.
- I don't know where Kheybar Khorramabad gets it's money from, but they're doing some nice work with their stadium they're building called "Lor Arena".
- Best young players of this season so far: Reza Ghandipour (Malavan), Bahram Goudarzi (Gol Gohar), Mohammad Khalifeh (Aluminium Arak), Mehdi Zare (Gol Gohar).
- Khuzestan continues to discriminate against women in stadiums. In addition to behind the scenes government baboons, there are tribes there that don't want to allow women into stadiums.
- Sepahan's Limouchi is picking up form. He along with Hashemnejad and Hosseinzadeh are all players who have been great this season, and are in the 24-25 age range, so I don't consider them "young".
- Winter transfer season will be busy.
- Teraktor is mid-season champion.
- Havadar FC has been the worst team by far,

I will add to this and say, Razzaghinia has also been an excellent player for Gol Gohar. Tall, technical CDM. Many people don't realize this but he has been consistently starting for Gol Gohar and playing full 90 outside of U20 camp since end October. He played full 90 against SS and Sepahan recently, doing a great job defending That's massive news for an 18 year old CDM. He also won "young player of the month" which is something strange PGPL has started doing recently lol.

Your're right. I completely forgot him. Playing in Gol Gohar means he gets less attention, but I agree he's one for the future. We really need a new DM who can defend and also set up plays, in the modern sense for our football.

I hate these stupid artificial teams like Havadar so much….truly pointless and always these teams are made up of mid to old age subpar PGPL players that battle relegation for a few years before they finally go down. All to take away mins and opportunities from young guys….at least if these no name/made up teams had something beneficial I wouldn’t hate on them but they literally never do. Hope Havadar continue to struggle and get relegated and replaced with a real team with a real fan base like Sanat Naft

[oracle]

Havadar will drop with most probably shams Azar

fajer shiraz
Peykan
Saipa
Sanat naft

2 of the above will come.

League 1 is fun to follow last 10 weeks.

Agreed. Their only positive is they are now forced to have youth teams, so at least some young kids get to play. Just a few days ago their youth team beat Esteghlal's 3-0
