Reluctant Striker 134 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 1 hour ago, Panna King said: Not really a problem with goal scoring, the Dutch were one of the Top scorers in the qualifying with Depay as joint top scorer with Kane. Depay & the team may well have scored a few Vs Turkey, Norway (3rd even with Haaland), Montenegro, Latvia & Gibraltar. And I'm not sure Senegal, Ecuador & Qatar will be much of a step up from that. But I do very much doubt him & them later on. Strangely I had near enough this exact conversation with a young Dutch person around the time van Persie was getting on a bit. He disagreed. Netherlands didn't qualify for the 2018 World Cup.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they fucking weren’t you spastico, They were made fun because they picked fucking FRED as their main forward after Neymar. I actually knew a Brazilian guy at the time and he had zero hope and that was the overall feeling that they were underdogs and the only reason they could win was because they had home advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 1 player under 25. Not sure how relevant that is, but it's a stat I guess. Azmoun & Taremi have good scoring stats for Iran. Taremi also has a good record with Porto. Jahanbakhsh is a name that was being talked about for Iran around the last world cup, doesn't seem to be as much noise around him now but can't have lost all his talent. Maybe England shouldn't take Iran's attack so lightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero 5,267 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Haha can’t forget when the Brazil manager took David Luiz and Maxwell over Miranda and Filipe Luis when the latter two were arguably the best CB and LB in the world at the time.

Maybe England shouldn't take Iran's attack so lightly. Azmoun & Taremi are by far and away the best players in the side - but Azmoun's suffered a bad injury recently and I don't think he's quite fully recovered. Only recently returned to training I believe - so I think it's a bit of a risk for Iran to have only brought 2 fully fit strikers. Jahanbakhsh isn't really quite the same player he was before his move to Brighton, he doesn't offer a whole lot going forward. But his defensive workrate from a wide player is huge and he's probably one of the most consistently hard workers in the Iran side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
