Positive side of things and moving forward, and alternatives

[sam20]

On principle alone, Iran should never agree to pay a lower ranked team any money for friendlies. Period! Fuck these greedy hyenas!

I wouldn't base it off the rankings, as Ecuador might actually be just as strong as us (or stronger), considering they only finished behind, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay in south america - would we have done any better?.....VERY LIKELY NOT

It's perhaps more about who is inviting who - If iran knocks on Ecuador's door requesting a friendly, they'll also have some money prepped to persuade them into it or Ecuador will say "ok, only if you pay us this much" & vice versa in opposite scenario

TBH I'm not an expert in this area but that logic would make sense to me.

Constructive proposal:
Play against well drilled clubs. Whats the difference when one thinks of it.

Its pre season and there are tons of clubs that would love facing Iran.

Just employ two young adults proficient in English and order them to start doing cold calls. Let Them work lists for a couple weeks eight hour a Day.

Random telephone underwear salesman would easily be able to land 20 high quality prospects.

Next steep is to force those risho hobos to clean Up, shave, wear a suit that doesnt date to pre revolution days in some depressing beige colour. After that they can bring some baklava and chai and start to negotiate.

How hard can it be?!

Also, have pre season cups arranged. You know those 4 team kind of tourneys. Let Iran be hosts and start mobilizing sponsors. Let it be annual cup.

For example we can have zam zam cola cup Peykan pro tournament. Iran Khodro, Pasargad bank or whatever.

If really ambitious they can take those influencing footballers om mini tours and that would be excellent promotion for tourism. Let teams visit Persepolis, visit hafez Grave etc and flood social media. Im sure they could ask for allocation from tourist ministry.

These preparations are so easily fixed it makes me wanna cry out of frustration.

Those alleged activist footballers that allegedly refused to play against Iran needed an excuse for keeping their kon goshad intact facing taremi, azmoun, arj, gholizadeh, allahyar etc.

some dude on twitter spaces came in and said you should be happy you are not playing Canada because Canada would have embarassed Iran and made irans confidence lower...not sure why nobody in the space called him out

Because people with delusions and ideas of grandeur should be referred to mental health specialists.

Positive is there is no positive. Iraq friendlies here we come

Iraq would be plenty good opponent and im sure they are looking for a chance to make mends for their recent spanking that we handed them at WCQ..?
But probably they got 3 other friendlies on their schedule already too..? 😂
