Breaking News: TM List for Lebanon and Syria announced (11/2022) *TAREMI DROPPED*

[Nokhodi]

Surprisingly our idiotic khale zanak media has been relatively quiet. Dirt bags make a mess and then go quiet.

I'm too happy drunk right now to be as annoyed abiut this as I would under sober circumstances.

Best part about this is we will never know who is right in this scenario, considering that with Skocic in charge our results with or without Taremi in the line-up is a group stage exit in the WC.
Basically I feel like Mehdi is correct to recognize that we have a dollar store coach in charge who's probably running high school P.E drills with the team, and has the tactical planning equal to that of what you'd see from a league two team manager.


Do I respect that he unlike the other players had the balls to call the watermelon salesman out? yes.
Do I think that at this stage it makes a difference that he did it? no. Unless Skocic loses majority of his next matches, he will be the person leading the team in the WC.

He was the key player in last qualifiers and did well this time so far. But as o said before no one is bigger than TM.

No player is bigger than TM, but Taremi is certainly bigger than Skocic.

I’ll ask this again, where was Taremi when Wilmots was single-handedly taking TM to it’s worst qualfiction result since 1990?

He is not.
He is player and Sko is THE COACH. Like him or not(and i am not his fan).

The coach has the right to pick his player. Having said that in this case I support Taremi. Skocic is not a high caliber coach to talk about out team or league. Even CQ knew that and never disrespected the players or the league.

[Philosophy_King]

Wished Taremi would have wait with his criticism until we had qualified. Now things became complicated, since he is without doubt our best player.

[The Realist]

Firstly, I like Dragan and what he’s done for TM, especially after WillyMouse disaster and YES Taremi was wrong to openly attack/defend TM or Iranian players against his manager. But two wrongs don’t make a right! Yes CQ quite rightly made an example of Madonnas but he never openly criticised his players ability; technically, physically or tactically. We know we have these issues but that should not have been brought out in an interview!? Instead he should be working on them on the training pitch.

Cq questioned and criticized the league a lot. Nostalgia.

Pretty sure CQ has criticised IPL - IFF - IPL Coaches a LOT

کارلوس کی*روش سرمربی تیم ملی ایران تاکید کرد که سطح بازیکنان داخلی تیمش مطلوب نیست و این بازیکنان به آماده سازی ویژه*ای قبل از جام جهانی روسیه نیاز دارند.

Translation:
The head coach of the Iranian national team, Carlos Queiroz, stressed that the quality and level of his team's domestic players is not good and that these players need special preparation before the World Cup in Russia.

he even asked to close the league

One example

I’ll ask this again, where was Taremi when Wilmots was single-handedly taking TM to it’s worst qualfiction result since 1990?

Couple of different factors:

- Mehdi wasn't familiar enough with the high caliber of coaching as he is now while Wilmots was in charge. He had just moved to Portugal when Wilmots started with Iran. Now that he is training at champions league level, he can more clearly see the difference between micky-mouse coaching and proper coaching.

- Maybe after his experience with Wilmots he felt like he need to nip things in the butt since staying silent during wilmots almost got us eliminated.

- As far as I know, Wilmots never "put down" down Iranian league/players, so there was never a reason to "call him out".



With all that said, there's a different possibility. Mehdi was taking shots at the federation with his comment, and the federation pressured Skocic to not invite him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

so why didn't he quote the federation instead of Skocic?

In response to Skocic's comment, He could have been pointing out that the reason Iranian league isn't at it's full potential is because of IFF.

[Leicester City]

No player is bigger than TM, but Taremi is certainly bigger than Skocic.

Then is that why Taremi is dropped? Usually if someone is bigger than you, then you'd be afraid of doing anything that would be a threat to their position of superiority (in this case Skocic NOT being hesitant to drop Taremi).
