Iranian of the Day

Do not get your hopes

Do not get your hopes up!

Schäfer had great success with Cameroon in the world cup when his talented team played with passion and displayed modern, attractive and attacking football.

Which brings me to the sentence I started this post with, namely the Cameroon players were a group of young, talented and passionate players who were willing to learn and tear their guts out for the national team. You look at the Iranian national team performances in the past say 10 years and you rarely can come up with a performance that meets those categories. You can blame the coaches all you want but it is the player who is on the field and playing. The Iranian side is a quarreling-ground between different factions who have only their own interests at heart (mainly financial) and nothing else, just like the regime. So in a way they are the true representatives of this regime (and not the Iranian people).


I am sure even god (if he finds the time) can not cure the problems of Iranian football, never mind Schäfer.

WINI SCHÄFER

has done good job. Now he is not the joungset one. On the other side it is not easy to find a good coach in this job. Unfortunately sport is commercialised and the fans act sometimes rather wildly. For example the former coach of german 12 Voigt. He could not bring the team weid enough in the worldgames. as he came back home he was treated so badly that he was depressed and could not work for a weil. what I do not understand is: why is the coach fault, when the team looses? why a coach is sposed to make the appropriate !Input" by the player in order they will win in any case. Now to Schäfer as a foreigner: I think every country must be obliged to choose the national players and the national coach unter the ones who have its only nationality. The germans for example have the Iranian player ASHKAN in their nationa jouth team. As he said as a Iranian he does not play in and against the team of Palestine occupying regim,there was a lavine of most aggressive kritik against him in the "demokratic" media. Even the german secretary for internal afairs did critisie him publicly. Weeks later he was supposed and asked to play against Island und Luxemburg. he accepted this. Now let us see what schäfer brings. As he had been in the emirates may be he is adoppted to the life in Persian Golf Area. And he, as a sportteacher knows that alkohol does not help at all. so he will have no difficulties. Greetin
