I'd be so surprised if Ghoddos was called up. Just like I was surprised when Atashkadeh was called up to a training camp, but him and Tafazolli must be looked at by our coaches, they may offer something different, I don't know if we need something different at this stage, or maybe we do. It's all about our coaches evaluating them first hand.

Originally posted by Ghermez Agha View PostProbably bc inviting a 30 year old CB with minimal international experience who has emerged very late on inhis career is not as lucrative of an option as an up and coming CB who could be an asset for TM in the near future. Pourghaz is decent but I wouldn't say he's anything special honestly. CQ likes him for his versatility and even played him at DM the last 15-20 min vs Macedonia last summer. Ppl who want Ryan (myself included) to get a call up are just talking about ideally what they'd want to see - it won't actually happen IMO. At least not right now

Looking at him objectively for Iran's needs, he can be serviceable in spite of his limitations. We are not likely to find a player of Jalal Hosseini's calibur instantly, and Montazeri is not getting any younger. Tafazolli is strong, tall, and decent defensively. He is not fast, but other than South Korea, we do not play many teams in Asia with the speed of Hazard or Willian (unless Qatar naturalizes them of course).
Tafazolli is probably good enough to be a rotation player for Iran at least. If he continues to play and improve, I do not see why he cannot become a starter someday. Paired up with a more active defender, he can sit back and just guard against chipped balls while the other CB chases strikers more actively. We will see, as I doubt he will be invited for this round of games, but I think we may see him at some point. He seems like a nice guy, so hopefully he gets a chance at the very least in a friendly.

Chelsea has been very strong recently, and I don't believe many of our defenders would have been able to alone be good enough to really have done great in Tafazolli's position in that game.
