Siavash Bakhtiarizadeh, in an interview with Tasnim news agency’s sports reporter, said about the latest situation of the Khuzestan football team: Although the football team had problems in the middle of the last season, it ended the season almost well. In the new season, even though the Foulad team lost some good players in the transfers, good players were also recruited and it can be said that Foolad was one of the most active teams in the market.
Regarding the two consecutive defeats of Khuzestan Football Club in the 22nd season of the Premier League, he stated: In the first week, considering that Football Club had gone through six weeks of physical training, the team’s technical staff did not choose a suitable strategy and plan to face Golgohar and the team Sirjan took full advantage of this. At the beginning of the game, Mansourian’s students showed good pressing, but it was very stressful. Therefore, after 20 high-pressure minutes, whatever happened in the course of the game, Golgohar became more dominant in the game and won a big win.
Havashi messed up Foolad’s concentration before the Khuzestan derby
The veteran of Khuzestan Steel Club continued: In the second week, Foolad had the privilege of hosting and expected to compensate for the result of the first week. On the other hand, the oil industry could not have a good show in the first week and suffered a heavy defeat. Therefore, both teams entered the field with great motivation, but the events and incidents that happened two days before the match between the two teams in Ahvaz had disturbed the concentration of Mansourian and his students. The emergence of these fringes is not the wish of any Iranian or human being, but in the end it happened and left negative effects. I want to say realistically, maybe if there was no refereeing error, the oil industry could have scored more goals. In the second week, Abdallah Vaisi was able to recover his team well and enter the field with a suitable spirit and motivation.
Even Ali Parveen did not go to the audience
Bakhtiarizadeh said about Mansourian’s conflict with the spectators present in the stadium: When the coach goes to the stadium, he must wait for an event or a reaction from the spectators at any moment. One day, Ali Parveen said goodbye to all that greatness as the head coach of Persepolis at Azadi Stadium and said that he will not return to football. Although some 14- or 15-year-old spectators of Persepolis criticized at that time, even Parvin, the “Sultan of Iranian football”, did not go to the audience. Therefore, the coach should calmly go to the stadium and maintain his concentration. In addition, unfortunately, the personality and charisma of Mansourian’s assistants are not such that they can be at the top of the embankment and attract criticism.
He said about the expectations from Foolad: Khuzestan Foolad has many possibilities. Also, this club is well supported financially and has a very strong management structure. Considering these issues, we expect Foulad to compete with Saudi clubs in terms of facilities and reach the top ranks of the Premier League.
Foolad fans may not accept Gol Mohammadi and Ghalenoi
In response to the question of how he evaluates the rumors of the change of the head coach and CEO of the club, the veteran of Foulad football team stated: I met with Shabani, the CEO of Foulad once, near the middle of last season, and wished him health and success. In the same meeting, I asked him to choose a foreign head coach according to the wishes of the fans. Maybe if the most successful coaches of the Iranian League, such as Yahya Golmohammadi and Amir Ghalenoui, are not accepted by the fans of Folad. Although Mansourian is one of our football greats and is familiar with our league, the board of directors and the CEO of Foulad should from now on look at the possible options for hiring a foreign coach and think about crisis management. In any case, one day, either Mansourian’s contract will expire or he may be fired for any reason. Therefore, we should go ahead with the crisis management and not let the hump become the hump.
In the end, Bakhtiarzadeh said: CEO Shabani and the members of the board of directors of Foolad Club should enter the recent fringes around the team and collect them and of course take urgent action. If they do not do this, the shards of these margins will reach the management body of Foulad Club.
