The condition of Esteghlal's championship in the Premier League; Brokers give advice to Mosimane!

According to Mehr reporter, the Esteghlal football team of Tehran finished the first half of the season with 18 points and being in the 10th place, and the fans of this team hope that by passing the half-season holidays and recruiting new players, Pitsu Musimane can improve the team's conditions. improve in the second half of the season and this team will reach the top ranks of the Premier League standings.

Farshad Falahatzadeh, a football expert and former player of Esteghlal team, in a conversation with Mehr reporter, examined the conditions of this team in the first half of the season and evaluated the general situation of the blue players.

Esteghlal players are not fit for championship

Regarding the conditions of Esteghlal in the first half of the season, Farshad Falahatzadeh said: The conditions of Esteghlal were such that at the beginning of the season, the team was closed with the thoughts of Javad Nekonam, and when a head coach chooses a team, problems will arise for him with the arrival of a new head coach, and it is possible. He can't work with some players, but in general, everyone worked hard, but the people in Esteghlal are not compatible and the players are not in a form that can lead the team to the championship and to the top of the table.

Necessity of good consultation for buying players

He continued: Esteghlal must recruit players for the second half of the season who are in accordance with Musimana's thoughts. Of course, some names are mentioned and suggested that I think Mr. Musimane has not even seen their game. But they should be careful that the player who is recruited must be at the level of Esteghlal and know what their position is and what team they are coming to, and this issue requires good advice. The officials of the club should be careful that brokers do not give advice to Musimana.

Independence requires a change of tactics

Falahatzadeh said regarding the list announced by the club to withdraw or recruit players: I think one of these people is Hardani, who is a player who has passed his test and is a capable player. But in general, Esteghlal needs to change tactics. Stop playing “Kesh Kesh” and free kicks, and use technical players and those who can take the player directly in front and help the team. Esteghlal needs a fast player and a player who can work on the ground.

He further said: The system of direct play and the use of long balls, which was used in the last two seasons, has become clear for the rest of the teams, and when they play with Esteghlal with several tall defenders, they neutralize Esteghlal's attacks. While Esteghlal now needs a technical player.

This veteran football player said regarding the criticisms of the 8-day closure of the team's training: Anyway, this issue is according to the thoughts of the head coach, and the team must have needed this rest mentally.

The changes have not had a positive effect

Regarding the management changes in Esteghlal, he said: I think these changes have not been successful. For example, in the basic teams, they brought Mr. Ziyai, who is not independent. He was Mr. Persepolis Factory. Mr. Musimane is right that he works and works hard, but he is not a first-rate coach and works to the best of his ability. I think that the activities, plans and purchases made by the club management were not to the liking of the audience.

He continued: The events that happened to Javad Nekonam and they brought him to the team in one way and left him in another way was not a beautiful thing. Mr. Nekonam also worked hard and would have become the champion last year if there was no injustice. These people are the assets of the club and they should not have been treated like this.

Sattar Hamdani will be more successful than the current managers

He continued: Now the issue of Mr. Sattar Hamdani's CEO is discussed, which should be taken as a good omen. Anyway, he is a football and independent person and I think he will be much better than the current players. Mr. Alami works as a supervisor with a football background in the team and all the veterans are also happy. If Mr. Hamdani comes, he can be more successful than the group that is working now.

Independence was deprived of the blessing of hosting

Farshad Fallahatzadeh, in response to a question about the effects of Azadi Stadium's unavailability on Esteghlal team's performance, said: Anyway, Esteghlal players are not familiar with Shahr Quds Stadium. When the opposing teams come to Azadi Stadium and see a lot of spectators, they automatically feel as if they are behind by one to zero, and this is true for both Esteghlal and Persepolis. But the stadium of Quds city is in such a way that it is not as if Esteghlal is the host.
