Your two preferred DM/CM out of the following players? Why?

[Sarbaze-Vatan]

Ezatolahi does not include in this list. So please do not choose him as your two preferred DM/CM.

1. Omid Ebrahimi
2. Ali Karimi
3. Ehsan Hajsafi
4. Ahmad Abdollahzadeh
5. Roozbeh Cheshmi
6. Omid Noorafkan
7. Others

[KeonKish]

1. Omid Ebrahimi
2. Ali Karimi
3. Ehsan Hajsafi
4. Ahmad Abdollahzadeh
5. Roozbeh Cheshmi
6. Omid Noorafkan
7. Others (Do not include Ezatolahi)

Ebrahimi is the only one that can control the flow and tempo in the midfield

I think he’s the most well rounded midfielder we have ATM besides EZ.

Hajsafi is a good distributor but doesn’t have the same vision as Ebrahimi.

Abdollahzadeh seems to be a good option as well, good short passer.

Ali Karimi is a good holding midfielder

So who are your preferred two without Ezatolahi?

I would take Ali Karimi and Ebrahimi.

Ali Karimi will be needed to fill in Ezatolahis shoes, especially the first game.

None of the other midfielders have the body or strength to play that role.

Ebrahimi because he’s proven and has paired well with pretty much everyone in the midfield.

I was never Ali Karimi fan. I still think he is not TM material. I would take Ebrahimi and Cheshmi.

CDM: Abdollahzadeh
CM: Hajsafi

[Sarbaze-Vatan]

CDM: Abdollahzadeh
CM: Hajsafi

Both of them are left foot. IMO one of them should be right foot. IMO right side of CM should be a right foot player but the left side of CM can be either.

[Ab-Gosht]

none of them we are so lacking quality in CM. crazy we had nekou and ando back in the days

Omid Ebrahimi and Hajsafi I would say.

Assuming CQ will take at least 3 pure DM/CMs so excluding Hajsafi, I would go for Ezzatollahi, Ebrahimi and Ali Karimi.

Cheshmi will be taken as a CB. If Noorafkan makes the WC squad it will probably be as a LB, he currently competes with Aghaei as the backup LB in TM.

The thing is, anyone correct me if Im wrong, but Abdollahzadeh is not getting much play time at the moment for some reason

[Sly]

Haji Safi

Abdollahzadeh

[Sarbaze-Vatan]

I thought there will be more discussion on this. I hope Noorafkan starts against Tunisia. What do you guys think about your two preferred DM/CM out of available players except Ezatolahi at the moment?

[PersianLegion]

Saman Ghoddoos, Cheshmi, Musalman, Karimi. I don't have confidence in Omid Ebrahimi.

Mosalman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PersianLegion]

Mosalman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes Mohandes is a good ball distributor and creative MF. I prefer him over Ebrahimi. I know CQ won't pick him but I still prefer him.

I do not think Mosalman is national team material. Cheshmi is an interesting one for DM position but CQ uses him as CB most times. I do not have confidence in Ali Karimi at all. I do not have confidence in Abdollahzadeh either. Noorafkan has the talent but he should be tested more. Also he is still very young. I hope he starts in the next match. For me at the moment, Ebrahimi > Mosalman, Ebrahimi > Karimi, and Ebrahimi > Abdollahzadeh. Btw, I really hope Dejagah gains his full fitness soon. We really need him.
