Masoud is officially our Captain

[Essi]

He's officially our captain (as long as he's playing).

He said it in the press conference "Be here as the captain is an honor"

شجاعی: بازیکنان باتجربه در جام جهانی استرس بیشتری دارند
مسعود شجاعی

کاپیتان تیم ملی فوتبال ایران می*گوید ملی*پوشان ایران مشتاقانه منتظر شروع جام جهانی و دیدار با مراکش هستند.

به گزارش خبرنگر اعزامی ایسنا، مسعود شجاعی کاپیتان تیم ملی فوتبال ایران در نشست خبری پیش از دیدار با مراکش حاظر شد و اظهار کرد: همه می*دانند جام جهانی مهم*ترین تورنمنت ورزشی دنیاست و طبیعی است که بازیکنان باتجربه استرس خاص خود را داشته باشند. جام جهانی هیجان خاص خود را دارد. به عنوان کاپیتان خوشحالم که این*جا هستم و این پنهان کردنی نیست.

وی افزود: مشتاقانه منتظر بازی اول خود هستیم تا از کاری که می*خواهیم انجام دهیم لذت ببریم.

شجاعی درباره تجربه*اش از حضور در سه دوره جام جهانی گفت: فکر می*کنم همان طور که گفته شد سه دوره در جام*جهانی را تجربه کردم و تجربه خوبی در فوتبال دارم. قول پیروزی قبل از بازی را نمی*دهم اما در هر سه بازی از جان مایه می*گذاریم تا پرچم کشورمان را بلند و دل مردم را شاد کنیم.

Great choice ..!

This man has been the most outspoken figure on social media about women being allowed to enter stadium, told the president of IR himself to his face, gave IR another f**k you by playing football no matter who the opposition is, has been one of the most well liked guys in the team over the last 12 years he’s been in TM - idk if we can think of anyone more deserving to be our captain and the first ever Iranian to play in 3 world cups. Damet garm Masoud! (Just please don’t take penalties )

[Tehranto]

Masoud, gol mekyaheem, aghyeh Gol!

[Paradigm]

Shojaie played in Spain for a few years.

A good choice to interface with the Iberians.

How is he with free kicks?

[Bandar Hamal]

Masoud for the love of god please pass to the right players tomorrow

[Under Lahaf]

may Masoud's experiences from the previous world cups help him and guide the team to excellent results.

Good luck to our Captain.

Masoud Captain, Hajsafi second in line?

Masoud Captain, Hajsafi second in line?

I think Hajsafi is third in line after Ashkan.

Masoud jaan . Just don't lose the ball and throw yourself on the grass. Where you can make an easy pass just do that ... don't dribble towards our own player please .. play simple and give " sure" passes. Thank you . Oh .. and no foul near own 18 yards. You have done that so many time in the past.

Play quick, dictate tempo vali ziadi leftesh nade

Dont make retarded fouls and get carded

Thank you and see you tomorrow aghaye capitan

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does this guarantee him a starting spot? Or are we just assuming.

Thanks for the response. I guess another way of putting it: is there precedent for a captain not starting for reasons other than injury/suspension?

[Leicester City]

Please don't play like how you did in WC 2014 where people in Iran were cussing you out. I really don't want to hear the people at the viewing party foosh bedan.

-Don't do silly dribbles like you did against Argentina

-Don't make dumb fouls

-Don't go for the glory and PASS

Best of luck!
