TM List for Asian Cup


The list for the Asian Cup games was given out by Ghalenoei today. There are 30 players picked but only 23 make it to the final squad. Each team has 7 players, incase a player gets injured during training and is not able to participate in any of the games. In my opinion, the players that need to be taken out of the list are shakouri, asadi, badamaki, E. sadeghi, Nouri, S. Zareh, K. Rahmati. There is no use in having these many midfielders when we all know that karimi, teymourina, nekounam, mahdavikia, zandi, kaebi, and nikbakht are going to be the only players that will get a chance to play. I persoanlly thinl we should play with 1 forward or play karimi as the second forward because our midfield is really strong but we only have one good striker, who is Hashemian. The players are going to all report to camp on monday to get tested and then the trainings start on tuesday. These three weeks leading up to the games are going to be very important. We dont want to pick up any injuries like the preparation for WC, but we want to play a lot and having team chemisty. These are the players that made it to the squad at this time:

Goalkeepers:Taleblou, Rahmati, Roudbarian

Defenders:Nosrati, Hosseini, Rezaei, Aghili, Sadeghi, Shakouri

Midfielders:Zandi, Morteza Asadi, Mahdavikia, Badamaki, E.Sadeghi, Mobali, Nekounam, Teymourian, Mohammad Nouri, Shojaei, Nikbakht, M. Zareh, S. Zareh, K. Rahmati, Kaebi, Karimi

Strikers:Hashemian, Enayati, Rajabzadeh, Kazemian, Khatibi
