Given that TM will play the USA plus one to two more English speaking teams with arguably at least somewhat similar playing styles,
would it not make sense to increase the priority level to evaluate USA and Canada based players eligible to play for Iran?Comment

With the US being in our group I really hope Beitashour’s much needed return is actually considered and testing out Kaveh Rad is also on the table. Having guys in the locker room who have a strong level of familiarity with the US team can go a long wayTeam Meli Iran

Baba TM needs you as a scout you have a great level of familiarity with these North American prospects and this thread is the evidence of thatOriginally posted by Team Melli Fan View Post
Realistically tho I don’t see any of them being at TM level by WC time besides Stevie boy and kaveh (if he can break into SKC squad consistently). The others would be worth an invite if they can make it to MLS and put in some good shifts but until then the USL and Canadian domestic league are very very weak and not near the standard of what anyone close to TM should be in.Team Meli Iran

Yeah I don't think any of them will make it for the WC but a lot of these players are young and could be long-term prospectsOriginally posted by Ghermez Agha View PostBaba TM needs you as a scout you have a great level of familiarity with these North American prospects and this thread is the evidence of that

And it’s one that does not grant freedoms of any kind, or accommodate people’s demands in any way. What is increasingly clear is that there is clear demand for change in the regime. What the people want is regime change, and no return to the past. There is a very real possibility of regime change." - Nasrin SotoudehComment
