U-23 Championship (2015 WAFF)

[St_Mark]

Khakpour is not my choice for Olympic team but i recall CQ friend before him, Vingada.

Since he could not enter Iran, they help to pay his tax and gave him a solid contract while he was not in Iran but UAE.

IFF ended up firing him after worst disaster for Olympic team, he was a failure for Omid team even with much stronger squad.

IFF refuse to pay khakpour 1/2 of what he paid Vingada. I can't recall for sure but vingada salary was $24,000.00 while base on a report Khakpour was getting $5,000.00 monthly.

I absolutely hate the games most Iranian coaches play. Khakpoor knows he will choke as a coach in Olympics qualifiers. So he quits ahead of the competition not to tarnish his so perceived winning record after winning one tournament. No Guts. No Glory.

Its obvious that Khakpour did not get the what Vingada got mainly becuase he didnt have the same experience and coaching license, irrespective of achievements, but now that he came home with the trophy, IFF needs to reward the effort and revise the contract to reflect such achievement, also Khakpour needs to go back, get his B or A license and shut the critics up.....Something few Iranians involved in Football do....

people in iran however should be glad to not get eaten up alive of this cannibal regime....fairness pishkesheshoon...

A Reminder:

Khakpour has resigned but IFF or Olympic committee has not yet accepted his decision.

I doubt IFF has any alternative but him.

I would love to see Mansourian back at the helm of Team Omid. Afshin Ghotbi wouldn't be such a bad choice either.

If I remember Mansourian left for the specific reason that he didn't have enough support for the IFF, so I doubt he will come back.

[Paradigm]

IFF should provide for Khakpour to stay at the helm of U-23 for the next few months. The olympic qualifiers are soon enough, and he needs to build on the team until then. Don't ever change a winning combination!

He has his "A" license, but as far as I know it's US issued. I know AFC did not originally recognize it (like any other professional license of any kind going from one continent to another) but I thought the issue has been resolved.

At any rate, no coach of TM Omid or even Team Melli has ever had a higher license (i.e. UEFA Pro) as far as I know - haven't been able to find any info to the contrary even about CQ. Hell, I don't even know if Vingada had an "A" license - the guy sucked anyway.

I think Hassan Rowshan has A license. He got it from England.

Fair enough.
But by the same token, is it not fair to expect superior results than our usual coaches too? Like atvleast reaching the final of Asia cup, instead of getting eliminated in quarters.
Like doing better than the previous 3 points in the world cup, instead of being near the rock bottom rank with 1 point?


How come when it comes to the salary and fees, we bring in all the big names, the fame, the history and .... but when it comes to our rightful expectations, we suddenly lower it to the absolute MINIMUMS achieved by vatani coaches?

When you people do this, then you better expect criticism of every little thing he does.
You can't have all the rights and privileges but none of the responsibility

How can you put blame on the coach when we get d*cked by the referee and have to play with 10 men for over an hour??

Furthermore, how many friendly matches did TM get before the World Cup and Asian Cup compared to our competitors??

When the coach cannot get his preferred players such as bakhtiar rahmani, rafiee, abdolazadeh, pouladi because of sarbazi issue how is that his fault??

How many global professional coaches would be willing to put up with this nonsense like CQ has over the past years??

These are aspects out of his power. Sorry I just don't buy that argument!

Despite all these shortcomings and lack of resources provided to CQ I believe he has done reasonably well. You can't provide sub standard support to a coach and expect top results.

Even if you brought Pep Guardiola to TM and didn't support him with his requirements, you can't expect him to work at full capacity and get the best out of the team.
