Doesn’t CQs departure feel like you’re Abandoned ??

Why do we need someone to care for us? Are we blind, choolagh, crippled, or what?

Iranians are capable people. Iranians are smart people.

Try to be active AND supportive. We will rise again. Nothing is forever. We loved CQ and will follow him because we want him to succeed. He was part of us for eight years. It hurts to see him go, but we shall rise again. We are Iranians.

Having watched TM since the early 2000s I gotta say this is as tough as a pill to swallow when you take in all the circumstances of us losing. It was painful enough to see one of our best TMs ever get knocked out by yet again an childish mistake. What makes this tough, is CQ departure. Going to social media 2-3 days after the game, and all you see are emotional and depressing pictures from CQ saying goodbyes. The reality is this is just the beginning of whats to come in the future. Knowing that we will probably revert back to bringing an unqualified coach. With our grassroots problems and other teams improving majorly on a regular basis as we seen in this tournament, who knows in a couple years well end up losing to India's and other minnows of Asia. There is no hope for Iranian football.
