[Artaxerxes]

From unemployed to our best legionnaire in just a few months. And as a bonus, making a fool of pfdc and the fat fucks in dubai. I love it!

Bro i really hope "alaf" is legal in the country you live in.

Any video of the assist?

[The]

Watched the whole thing.

He was good today. Had an assist (honestly should have had three).

Made a lot of key passes and read the game well.
His crossing is getting better, almost reaching the Pre-Brighton quality.

Had the chance to Ice the game twice, but the GK did really well to keep it out. Also hit the crossbar once.

You can also see his influence on the pitch from a leadership perspective. Guiding his teammates tactically. It's his Westbrook in D.C era.

Van Persie knows how to use him.

Starting against Sittard at home

[Essi]

He got a 6.4 rating on FlashScore. Only 2 other starters on his team had lower ratings!

And he got the very low 6.1 on Sofascore together with Smans. He must have sucked big time and he was subbed out.

That was the worst performance he's had in a Heerenveen shit. Completely shit offensively. Just long passes into man's land and turning the ball over. At times it felt like the opponent was going out of their way to make sure the attack comes from JB's side.

Hopefully he can recover from this disasterclass.

Classic ARJ lol, either playing like he just left a wheelchair or randomly scoring a clutch goal. He rotates between that every other game

They're down 1-0 to Ajax currently, game is on ESPN + for USA viewers

Okay so he was our best player overall stat wise but he didn't "Bring us the win", that's still Cheshmi more than anyone else in that particular game. You don't look at any of Messi or Ronaldo's best games and talk about how many passes they completed or their defensive contributions or how much ground they covered, that's all fine and dandy but the bottom line is about the difference a player makes in the result of a game.

I do agree that we tend to put too much pressure on our strikers and someone like Ezatollahi has to be more aggressive on offense, this is why it's silly when Beirandvand says we're the greatest generation. Don't have to go back far, just look up how many goals Bagheri or even Ando used to score in the CM/CDM position.

"Greatest generation" riding on coattails of Taremi, Azmoun, and ARJs contributions/moments of brilliance. Without those 3 this team would be the worst generation lol. Ezatollahi is good but overrated IMO.

[FeLFeL]

I agree he's not a clutch player, his best is when he gets a full 90 to have a few moments of brilliance. My point was that the Wales game was 50% Taremi. And I'm not saying it randomly, take a look at any stat website. He had the best stats of any Iranian player that game. He was actually highest rated player ( Even with Cheshmi getting MOTM for his goal). He had most key passes of either side, best defensive stats, biggest heatmap, etc. He also had more than double the touches of Azmoun (who was out of form the whole game).

Now when it comes to actually finishing, yeah he's been ghosting when it actually matters lol. But I'm not gonna sit here and pretend he didn't give his best WC performance for us in 2022, that Wales game was his best Iran game ever even if he didn't score, in terms of rating and stats. He produced more key passes (8) than the whole Wales team + the rest of our team combined. If Azmoun, Gholizadeh, Nourallahi, and Ezatollahi didn't have ED this guy could have 3-4 assists between the two games with how many times he set them up.

We love to constantly complain about Taremi and Azmoun but the truth is we need to start asking more of other players, like why the hell does Ezatollahi only have 1 goal for Team Melli in almost 90 caps. Or why has Beiranvand conceded 15 goals in 10 games.

Taremi brought us the 2022 Wales win??? I think he had a decent game, but if it wasn't for the poor clearance by the Wales defender and Cheshmi's quick decision making to take a great shot (98th minute!), the game was going to end a draw.

Again, he has never really been clutch. Clutch players with ice in their veins tuck these away (would at least be on target!); Taremi has never been that guy.

Mehdi brought us the Wales 2022 win and Sardar gave us the 2024 Japan win. Besides that both have been ghosting in major tournaments going almost 10 years at the next Asian Cup

Azizi's goal against Australia is a chance that Taremi would miss 7 or 8 times out of 10 in a big moment like that - There's some things like true grit that you just can't teach, you either have it or you don't.
