“Lorenzotti” is a better option/ famous to experience coaching challenges – Mehr News Agency | Iran and world’s news
In an interview with Mehr reporter, Mahmoud Afshardoust said about the meeting of the technical council to select the head coach of the Iranian national volleyball team: The federation had invited volleyball experts to attend the meeting of the technical council so that we could follow up on the negotiations with the options for leading the national team. In this meeting, the resumes of Vital Heinen, Angelo Lorenzotti, Saeed Maarouf and Roberto Piazza were reviewed. Of course, there were a lot of people and we couldn’t talk much about the options.
He added: The experts talked about the options for four to five minutes and I have to see what the federation decides. According to Moradi’s words, the meeting of the technical committee is supposed to be held with a smaller number of people, and the results of the meeting of the technical council will be discussed there, and finally the option of leading the national volleyball team will be discussed in the meeting of the technical committee.
I think Lorenzotti’s choice is more correct for the national team
Afshardost considered Lorenzotti to be the best among the options proposed to lead the national team and said: I think Lorenzotti is the best option to lead the national team at this point in time. The League of Nations is the last chance for the national team to qualify for the Olympics, and we must put all our efforts into those competitions. On the other hand, we should try to change the shape and image of the team from a technical point of view in order to be in a better position in the ranking.
Most of the experts are of the opinion on recruiting a foreign coach
The Iranian volleyball expert stated: Most of the friends who were present at the meeting were of the opinion of hiring a foreign coach. Of course, at the time of the arbitration, the people present at the technical committee meeting also had the same opinion. Even in the last meeting of the board of directors during the refereeing, most of the experts were of the opinion of attracting a foreign coach, however, all of these friends have no doubts about Saeed Maarouf’s ability. He was a very good player and leader and has provided worthy services to volleyball, and there is no doubt that he can become a top level coach in the future.
Saeed must experience coaching challenges
A member of the Technical Committee of the Volleyball Federation emphasized: I think that Saeed Maruf can become one of the very good coaches in Asia and the world, all my friends had the same opinion. But at this point, the opinion of the volleyball people was that we should have a foreign coach for the time being, so that Saeed can be with the foreign coach and experience the challenges and atmosphere of coaching in front of a foreign coach if he thinks it is good.
He emphasized: Although he is a famous person and considering his name and position in the world, he may prefer to start his career as a head coach, which is not a bad wish and shows his high self-confidence. But my personal opinion is that he will start his career as a foreign assistant coach and soon become an ideal head coach.
With Iran’s ranking, the chance for the Olympics is low
Afshardost said about the national team’s schedule in the League of Nations and the determination of the opponents in this tournament: “There is no such thing as impossible in sports. On paper, according to the ranking, the national team has a small chance of advancing to the Olympics, but a small chance does not mean absolute zero, and it should be Let’s try harder. In the ranking, several teams were placed higher than Iran, and maybe their chances to climb are closer, but sports are unpredictable and nothing is impossible.
The task of promotion will be determined in the first week of the League of Nations
He said: Even though we have a difficult task ahead of us. In the first week in Brazil, we have difficult games ahead, and many experts may think that the task will be clear in the first week, because we need to win at least 8 games in order to qualify for the Olympics, and if those teams lose, Iran’s win is the only one. No, because their wins and losses will also affect our team’s position.
The Premier League did not have a high technical load in the half season
Afshardost said: Therefore, the national team and the federation should use all their efforts to be able to change the ranking conditions. The ranking situation is such that it is hard work and requires double effort, but this effort does not end only with the federation and the national team players. The background of all these efforts is the Premier Volleyball League, which should have a strong technical load. In the first half of the season, the league did not have a high technical load, and I hope that the technical conditions of the league will improve in the second half of the season to help the national team.
Club coaches must fix the technical faults of the players
He said: “During the meeting of the technical committee, many coaches criticized the national team, which was right, for example, we had problems in receiving the first 20 or more points or in attacking and returning the ball. Unfortunately, we still have these problems in the league. We see that those who raised these problems in the meeting of the technical committee are themselves coaches of the Premier League, that’s why I believe that helping the national team comes from the heart of the league, and the coaches should fix these problems in their club teams so that the conditions in the national team also improve. get better
