Should we keep CQ if we end up with 0 or 1 point in next WC?

[Persian-Pride87]

We are in the toughest group and certainly the TOUGHEST group we have ever been at a WC. Our best points total at a WC is a grand total of 3. It is unrealistic for some of you to expect CQ to get at least 3 points from this group.

Some of you argue that why keep a world class coach if he can't get us out of the group stage? The reason is simple. Thanks to CQ, our footballing culture is changing. We are more organized, professionalism is becoming slowly the norm and we have become the best side in Asia and have been so for several years now. Our football by all objective measures has improved significantly during CQ's reign.

CQ has no control over how much the country spends on facilities/infrastructure or how our football leagues operate. He has had so many other factors go against him (ie. geopolitical tensions, sanctions, conflicts relating to release of SS/PP players) and despite all this, he has turned Iran into the best side in Asia by a large margin.

Also what other coach could give some of the intangibles that CQ brings to the table? Our friendlies this time leading to the WC are our best ever. Many of these friendlies occurred simply because of CQ's connections. Intangible factors such as this should also be considered when determining if TM should part ways with CQ after the WC or not.

I think a more accurate test of CQ's coaching abilities should be the Asian Cup, not the WC with Iran in the toughest group.

Lets see how CQ does in the Asian Cup (if he ends up staying with TM and being our coach).

As an Arsenal fan I respect Arsene for his past achievements with us, but we should definitely be getting a younger, hungrier manager with fresh ideas.
We need someone to keep improving on the progress we’ve made after CQ leaves, and I see that happening more realistically with someone young like Jurgen Klopp.

We need an authoritarian coach! Someone both the players and IFF respect! Someone who would not back out when facing problems with IFF and other authorities, not the least the Iranian football mafia and media. For all that, the coach needs to be experienced enough to be able to handle different situations. He needs to have experienced all different problems that can arise withing football. The young hungry coaches are good for already established professional teams. For Iran and the environment there, I'm not sure a young coach can be successful. I think Wenger would suit TM perfectly!

I know IFF has already sent him a contract. I however think it is time for a new if he doesn't get at least 3 points. He has been working on this team for 6-7 years and it is time that we demand a bit more than a WCQ win. If he takes us to next round he should stay.

I have been saying this for a long time

We need to at least beat Morroco and only then I do agree with keeping CQ till the AC.

If he wins it then offer him another 4 year contract.

I support that %100

Depends on how Iran performs on the 3 games and not just based off the results. If we play hard against Portgual and Spain like we did in the Argentina match, then I will still be happy with CQ

One win or two ties will do the job as the least.
If he stays for Asian cup even as scare crow (matarsag) he will scare the koreans and shekhdoms of the Persian Gulf and everyone else. So if we want a cup keep him.
Any new coach will have a hard time getting to know the players in a short time. And if the new coach is mihani then player selection will be based on emotions and grudges. so , i conclusion I suggest for a reported to get anonymous opinion from TM coaches as their 23 men team. then collect the data and post it here and see how different it is from what CQ chooses. To do the survey, it should be done before CQ announces his list. by this survey we will know chand mardeh hallajand those mihani coaches. someone needs to assure them that the coache's name will not be disclosed to avoid any potential animosities. We lost in the past because of lajbaazi partibaazi va dava va jadaal.

At least 2 points was not an option....

[scuderia]

Guys I've said this before. I'll repeat it. CQ has already been offered a contract extension by the federation. It's been confirmed by the federation. He hasn't signed yet for one of two reasons. He's waiting to see how things go or he has already decided that he doesn't want to stay. So we don't have to speculate anymore.

Then why pay a world class coach 1.2 million euro every year, if we want to end up the last team of our group we can do that with Mayeli Kohan as well!

What is the point of having a world class coach, if we can not use him properly? Do we need a person like CQ to show good result in Asian competition? or a person like Schafer is enough for our team to gain that purpose?

So you think it's a gurantee we make the world cup everytime with any dummy as coach?
Were you under a rock in 2002 and 2010?

We need this survey:
| Team Melli players would be chosen if he was the coach instead of CQ

Italy Netherlands Chile USA didnt make the world cup this time and some of you ni99az just assume we should beat Morocco LOL

Morocco is a good team and can play anyone in the world

Viera was hired for the play-off stage (Japan and then Australia games). MK got us to the play-off stage. Tomislav stepped in after we already qualified.

Getting to the play-off stage in that garbage group was not an achievement. We lost to Qatar who was Bangladesh level at the time despite our team being one of our most talented in history.

[persian_pooya]

I'm leaning on voting to keep him anyway, but I think it's premature to make that decision now. Because I'm ok with keeping CQ as our coach even if we get 0 points as long as we put up good performances. But if we don't get any points and play poorly at the same time, then I don't believe he would be worth the price tag.

[scuderia]

lol you guys don't read the previous posts :s

[Surenas]

Baba The has an agenda against CQ, we should focus on the WC, all three teams are tough, we can beat Morocco and against Portugal especially Ronaldo and Spain we need miracles, you guys expect we beat them with Amiri, Khanzadeh, Aghai? Are you serious guys?
