U-20 World Cup 2017

[St_Mark]

What's this "Neymar" you talk about? Sounds like a talent.

I am not a good and fair judge of short small players in general.
He is very short and small size. He play very well for his club and has skills & Speed. very likeable player.
As for future , as i said i have a bias and favor stronger taller forwards.
Wish he play , progress and shine .

My guess is that he'll probably be moved to the wings or CAM once he gets older

One player need to be removed from the list.
Current Dm players in the list are Soltanimehr, Taheran, shojaei and Khadempir.
Alternative option is to move Omid to Offensive MF position.

Noorafkan replaced Ali Taheran ( Tractorsazi).

Up front Mehdikhani (NZ) or Amir Roostaei ( Pykn) will start.
Peyrovani played neymar as reserve against senegal. Senegal coached made a positive remarks about shekari, Taheri and Him.

Wasn't Reza Jafari always the striker until now?

And he's done very well, one of the best player in the team from what I remember, became a consistent starter for Saipa afterwards and even scored crucial goals for them

Only player who play for Iran in both U17 & U19 World Cup

He is very good and during 2013 !! WCu17 played for Iran as well as youngest player at the time.
Peyrovani against strong team prefer 4-2-3-1 system with a single FW , When behind He change to 4-1-3-2.
When single forward he used to play Chaab or Mohammadkhani and played Jafari as L winger. Jafari had freedom to move forward when he had opportunity.
Wgen with 2 forwards,Peyrovani played both Chaab & Mehdikhani and played Jafari next to Shekari in MF.

If you recall versus Japan, Saudi Arabia , Korea Iran really did not have coherent formation and tactic except react.
Against Seneagal I think Formaton was 4-2-3-1

Adeli
Shahsavari ,Aghasi , Taheri, Razaghpour
Soltanimehr-Shojaei
Mokhtari-Shekari- Mehdikhani/Jafari
Roostaei

علی شجاعی، رضا شکاری ، مهدی مهدی خانی، ابوالفضل رزاق پور، محمد سلطانی مهر، نیما طاهری، شهاب عادلی، نیما مختاری، امیر روستایی، علی شهسواری و عارف آقاسی

[St_Mark]

Iran U20 will play 3 games for sure and more if advance.

Hopefully all 21 players get their chance to play even for few minutes but its unrealistic and few may not get the chance.
One area of competition for playing time is offensive line. Nima Mokhtari has played for U15-16-17 and ahead of Ghaedi but Ghaedi will get his chance.

One s from NW and rich club the other from SE poor club.
Different worlds but no such different taste

166 for a Gk seems very short and unrealistic. Is that a mistake by any chance?

was this some azzaDari or a supposed celebration of sort..!!?

fking mullahs, sure as shitt know how to suck the life outa any and all remotely joyous occasions..!!
reminds me of those nauseating AQR opening ceremony pics ...!!
i'd probably rather shoot myself in the face than to attend such mindfkingly annoying supposed ceremonies..!!

[inarsenewetrust]

not sure if anybody noticed but the players wearing pink are part of the u17's going to the u17 WC in India in august.

[Paradigm]

If Iran's team show some talent and focus, they can get out of the group stage. Need to go in determined and wanting to end up with a substantive result. Have respect for yourselves. Big audience will be watching at an international level; seize the chance!
