TM-News-Vol. 7

Except, he didn't accept the job! He killed for it.

"killed for it" = Accepted to replace a coach who would have walked away on his own if he had an ounce of pride after his own captains publicly said they have no faith in him!

I also don't know what a "shotormorgh fan" is, but it's probably a genius who prefers a Fiat to a Ferrari and thinks the majority that don't must have dOuBLe sTanDaRds.

It could also mean another kind of genius who thinks tying Portugal and outplaying Argentina in the World Cup is an underachievement, but fawns over a coach whose greatest challenge was a home tie and an away loss against an Asian team that the previous coach was undefeated against.

These forums have literally been filled with posts by the same 3-4 members crying and lamenting since CQ was announced. It’s quite obnoxious. When Skocic took over, I just stopped posting here as much. Still watched the games, but didn’t care to come discuss much since the games depressed me. Maybe this small but vocal group can take a time out from posting about TM? It doesn’t seem like you’re positive about the move, so just watch it from a distance and see how it goes. Could you imagine me the day Skocic got hired posting relentlessly for weeks about it? It’s low class, some of you are higher than that. Just accept it’s reality at this point and let’s see how we do.

I’m sure if we get 1-4 points and miss out on the round of 16, we’ll never hear the end of it, so just bide your time until the failure comes since these folks seem to think it’s a foregone conclusion. I came back to PFDC when it was clear Skocic’s days were numbered. The team didn’t need incessant negativity towards Skocic from me and doesn’t need same now towards CQ. Either get on the wagon, or support TM in your own comfort away from posting negativity on the forum.

When was this taken?

I didn't see sardar at all. Is everything okay with him and mehdi and jahanbakhsh and karim ansarifard?

I've only seen a photo of him hugging CQ.

hes right in the middle of the pack joking around during the small sided possession. Seems like there were no long term effects from the head clash.

We don’t know how Skocic would’ve fared. Maybe there is a small chance he would’ve done well.

But, with CQ there is a SIGNIFICANT upgrade in terms of experience, preparation, overall knowledge, and, he already knows most of the players.

But most importantly, with CQ you know what you’re going to get. Which frankly, bodes well since this group is easier than the one from 2018.

It’s definitely unfortunate the way we parted ways with Skocic, but CQ is definitely a much safer choice for a tournament as big as the world cup. Players like ARJ, Taremi, and Ghoddos, have definitely been exposed to high standards of play, and they did not want to RISK wasting one of team melli’s golden generation on an unproven coach like him. And I do not blame them one bit.

We beat Bahrain in Bahrain for first time ever under Skocic. CQ can barely even beat Lebanon

You have to look at the bigger picture, aka his overall resume with team melli. Skocic couldn’t beat South Korea. CQ owned South Korea.

Roll the dice for the world cup on an unproven coach? Or go with the one who gave us the best results ever in our WC history?

Wow... didn't know Lebanon was in our World Cup group

Yes! Because an away win against a team that CQ beat 6-0 at home is far more impressive than outplaying Argentina, beating the reigning champs of Copa America, or coming within ONE missed chance from topping a WC group with Euro champs, African champs and a little team called Spain. Nothing suspicious about these lines of argument at all!

When Azmoun went against both Captains to back Skocic, and Taremi & JB referred to some people placing personal interests above the national team, I knew there was something going on with Sardar beyond just tactics. Sure enough, it turned out business was involved. Similarly, when we see a handful of "fans" care more about who the coach is rather than whether the team can win, you can bet more often than not there are "off the field" interests. Otherwise this much emotional investment in one man over your country and national team makes no sense in normal people.

We back CQ because has proven his greatness in two world cups against the absolute best. The Skocic lobby expects us to drool over an away win against the mighty Bahrain and one point out of six against a Korea that never beat us under CQ! Laughable, desperate and transparent.

[Hosseini]

Skocic supporters will scream the same arguments into the void until someone makes these great exact points and silences them for a few days because there is no legitimate response

Then repeat the process. Never-ending lunacy

Yuge achievements. Beat Bahrain in an empty stadium and took more than 90 minutes to beat Lebanon with 70% possession.
