    Although I could see where your frustration is coming from, in this game, we had the ball the entire game and we were trying to score, even up to the very last sec...and defending well and keeping clean sheets can't be a bad thing! it's not always beautiful but it's result driven and time and time again CQ has proved that it works just fine.

      Has anyone noticed that our set pieces are not as good as before when you compare it to WCQ of 2014 and Asian Cup 2015. Ando was fantastic with his dangerous crosses and JB has been really poor with most of his corner kicks. I would prefer Masoud to take the corner kicks just like he does with free kicks.

          I hope Brazil doesn't win today, so we can become the first team to qualify for the world cup by defeating Uzbekistan in June

            By far our best player was shojaei. His class was head and neck above everyone else.
            1) He created so many chances for us. his passes were accurate and deadly.
            2)He was a true captain. talking to the players instructing them what to do something javad did very well as well
            3)Not sure why he got the yellow
            4)He was working very hard and pressing, but choosing when to work hard and press and when to lay back and be like riquelme. Masood's experience and smart decision making was so evident today.
            I would rate masood a 9 for this game. yes a 9 and that's because of a few poor passes, none of which caused us any problems or messed up a good goal scoring opportunity.
            second I'd have to say miMo was our second best.
            3rd pejman montazeri
            I was disappointed in jahanbakhsh this game. so many mistakes and poor decision making. needless foul and yellow card. destroyed a great chance by holding on to the ball. A player of his caliber should not be making these mistakes. Let me be clear I am a big fan of jahanbakhsh, but have been disappointed in him the last two games, especially today
            Taremi was another disappointment again. He squanders too many chances. As long as he scores he will be excused and I won't totally bash him, but he is so frustrating to watch. He doesn't understand the value of a goal scoring chance. He made two very poor decisions that wasted a good opportunity. He is our new arash borhani with the exception that he converts 1/4 or 1/5 chances where arash would be 0/6 or 0/7. I am not counting his bicycle attempt but his poor weak shot and his needless hacking of the ball where he could have passed to gucci for an easy tap in.
            beiranvand scared me again once this game when he punched the ball rather than grabbing it, like the time he dropped the ball against qatar but quickly recovered. I hope he works on his butterfingers.
            ezatollahi had a few very poor decisions as well. needless handball and needless dribbling that almost cost us which made carlos furious. I love his style of play but again these poor decisions against a strong team will cost us the game. I do not expect these poor decisions from a player of his quality.
            ghafouri was solid but I prefer ramin to him
            omid ebrahimi was solid,
            gucci was making more use of the ball and did well. He knows the value of his chances and makes the most of them
            all subs were the right call. azmoun worked hard but didn't really have much of a chance. He should have headed the ball on target but it was offsides anyways.
            rezaian and amiri were excellent subs and did have some impact on the game.

              Jahanbakhsh had the worst game I've seen him play. Stupid decision making and bad corners.

                It's not carlos' fault that taremi wastes chances and jahanbakhsh holds on to the ball to destroy a goal scoring chance. We could have easily won this and qatar game by 3 goals each if the players would make use of their chances and let me remind everyone that one of our best if not the best player ashkan was missing last two games and we haven't had any friendlies or real warmup/camp.

                  atmosphere was incredible! Tabrik to everybody watching and at the stadium, they put on a show! Pitch looked great as well.

                  Mohammadi was excellent. This kid is a beast defensively and offensively. PAG and Montazeri were rocks. Ghafouri wasnt that great, I think rezaian will end up being the number one right back.

                  ARJ was poor, and offensively we were again not in sync. Clearly, we still need dejagah to coordinate that offense, but good news is, we can win without him, but we arent in the same flow offensively.

                  Thank you CQ. The iranian machine rolls on! On to Russia!

                    don't get me wrong, i love queiroz and appreciate the work he is doing. i'm just confused about our offensive impotence. its not like we don't have the personnel to play more fluidly in the attacking third, it just seems we are more unprepared in that department. i understood it when he was new, he doesn't want to take risks with an unfamiliar squad, but its been 5 or 6 years now. i feel like we should have advanced more. i mean there was several attacking scenarios against both qatar and china (the bottom two teams in the group!) where they outnumbered the defenders and they looked hesitant and confused.

                        dude its not his fault. We are getting in to great positions consistently on the offensive end, but the forwards seem unsure and stressed, unlike they do on their club teams. With three more games that will be lower stress, plus hopefully some good friendly matches, that should be ironed out. Obv CQ is aware of the issue, and i think he will make sure it is addressed.

                            As the great Sir Charles Barkley says if you don't like what you see, you can turn off the TV.

                              forgot to mention PAJ was solid as always, our 3 CB are all stellar, jalal, pejman, PAJ.

                                Our offense isn't polished the way it's probably supposed to be at this point, you are right but we haven't had that much preperation, these Qatar and China games are literally our friendlies! I feel like we are operating at 40-50 % of what we are really capable of with this much talent and Like I said I understand where you're coming from. I am not one of those people who close their eyes and worship CQ like he is a God who can't do no wrong and anybody who criticizes anything that has to do with CQ is a traitor in their eyes who must be hung in public!

                                The reality is that we do have a lot of talent and we should play much better than this but I think we'll get there just in time and right now we are getting the results we need so that's all that matters.

                                And always think about who would ever replace CQ? Yup. The alternatives aren't too attractive at all...so patience my friend. patience.
