Dude at this rate we will play the entire world and no one at the same time. Everyone associated with any management position with TM are idiots. Canada aside, if Uruguay was cancelled by Skocic and we don't play 2 half decent sides then Skocic is just as responsible as the IFF officials.
At this rate, let's hope our World Cup matches vs. England, USA and Ukraine/Wales/Scotland doesn't get cancelled!
"This is a totalitarian system whose presence people feel in their blood and in their flesh on a daily basis. 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 Sotoudeh
I wouldn't have minded all the complaining here if we knew what exactly happened, but no one really knows what really happened. Here are my guesses for what happened:
- Skocic asked that if we travel to South America (Similar to North America), for TM to have two friendlies. So, of course, IFF will negotiate with Uruguay and keep them on the hook while searching for another game. Once Uruguay demands an answer and IFF has not found a second friendly, they have to refuse. And blame goes to Skocic who refused a single game but would have travelled if there were two games. Can't blame Skocic or IFF for this scenario especially since the game had to be held on June 10th or 11th which kills the camp on June 6th probably. Camp only starts on the 2nd... So no real camp, lots of travelling and one game... Uruguay probably refused to hold the game on June 14. I think that would have been worth the travel.
- Skocic prefers two friendlies in Qatar or even one friendly in Qatar and a longer camp with less travel, to one very short camp and lots of travelling even against a stronger opponent.
- We have no idea what is happening in Sept. but it really affects what we do in June. Maybe they lined up two or three good friendlies in Sept. (Maybe a small tournament) and that can justify having a longer camp and less games in June.
We as fans, only see the games, but a lot of good happens in camps, as players gel and learn to implement coach's tactics... Getting players together from all around the world with one or two practice sessions before the match is not very useful. Previous world cups allowed lots of time for long camps and then many friendlies but for this world cup, we have to choose between camp duration and number of friendlies and travelling hurts both...
Ezatollahi looks to be sweating over trying to cover some of our more fit forwards..
Man im so sick of this guy being so unfulfilling. Its probably the most important role in our entire midfield, if he even met 50% of his potential we'd be such a heavyweight team... instead we are left with a more literal sense of the term

So you literally were able to tell his fitness level and his work rate by looking at a few pictures? Bravo my friend. You have a special talent.
