Amir Abedzadeh @ Club Sport Maritimo | 2017

[The Farbod]

You guys are out of your mind. While he's not a world class keeper by any means, you are greatly exaggerating his shortcomings. He doesn't make as many mistakes as you think. His record is actually pretty impressive. He's started all 12 of Maritimo's games and all the teams that have let in less goals are in the top 7 of the league, and only by just a few goals. Also, he's only had 3 games where he's given up more than 1 goal, and its to the three best teams in the league. If he makes as many mistakes as you claim he makes, this wouldn't be the case. It's not like he has Maldini in front of him.

While its not the end all be all, Whoscored has him as the 8th best GK in Portugal and his rating 6.71 is not far behind Casillas 6.77.

Niazmand has everything it takes to become Iran next best keeper in 2 or 3 years, and challenge Beiranvand, but again Keeper is so unpredictable position.

Hossein Monadi from Saipa is also a good up and coming keeper.

I always wonder how this guy still hangs around TM. I don't care if its his last name, it still gives no excuse to keep inviting this guy. That's like NBA teams adding Jordan's sons to their team just because of the name.
Niazmand, Hosseini are all superior to him.. I would even put Makani and even a nowhere to be found Haghighi over him

Did you watch his last game? Singly handedly earned his team a point

Yes i did, and most of his mistakes in every single game are laughable.
A keeper in NT level can't do this dude.

He is a very average keeper at best, nothing close to European league level and i honestly still wonder how he gets the start!! He does many many amateurish mistakes that keepers in amateur level are not allowed to do. He is so risky, he has this braveness of his dad, but unless his dad, most of his risks are not calculated. TBH, i can name 7-8 keepers in Iran better than him, his issue is not only his height.

^ fully agree

as I said, Abedzadeh gets 100 for effort but he is just not good enough physically

[pdot]

Wow.. He killed it!!!
For those who are too lazy to watch the highlights, he had at least 4-5 nice saves and the only goal he allowed was a penalty (not his fault), in which he even dived right and almost saved it.
Great job Amir!

4 or 5 saves? There are three saves there (0:35 and 4:20) . He also messed up twice. Once on the corner and once on the last shot when he could have caught the ball. So in total two saves as the final save was because he made a mistake.
He is still weak on high shots and corners, because he is so short. Look at his first save and the corner. Professional scouts can see these glaring weakness and not even look at him twice. A goalkeeper weak on high balls is useless at top level soccer.

He pulled off the same mistake Beiranvand did during the World Cup, but unlike Beiranvand, Abedzadeh wasn't lucky enough for the other team to miss

[mistermo]

A bit shaky today, hopefully he can brush it off and maintain the great form he's had al season!

[Iran_19]

Lately he more and more looks like Amir Abedzadeh of Rah Ahan and his early years as keeper. I don't know what happened to him.

This is from his today's performance. TM, CQ or any future coach needs to invite Niazmand of Sepahan after AC at least. The kid has potential.
