Nekounam: Our players are not like England under pressure / I hope the conditions for the Club Cup are ideal

According to Fars News Agency, Javad Nekounam in a press conference before the game with Fajrspasi Shiraz about this match, said: Considering the conditions that two teams have in the table, this game is important for both teams. During these few days, when we talked to the players, we told them that we should look at ourselves and our team, our steel, our fans and our club, and know that our position should always be the best and we should always strive for the best position. Like all games, we know we have a tough game and we have to be fully focused to be able to do our best on the pitch.

He continued: “The point that I would like our players to know tomorrow is that tomorrow the conditions of the game must go so that our focus and effort will make us successful. We know what we want from this game and I hope we have a good performance tomorrow so that we can achieve a good result.

Regarding the large number of injured players of this team, the head coach of Foolad said: “In any case, there are these injuries in Iranian football.” We are not English or Spanish or German Premier League players who have the ability to play every three or five days and be under pressure, constantly flying and enduring. These issues make things difficult. Another point is that I always put a lot of emphasis on the physical work and mental and physical fitness of the players, but anyway this year I was not with the team and the conditions of the players are not ideal for me. We have to finish the league with the same conditions, but thank God, after many injuries we had last week, three of our players have arrived and we hope that they can help the team tomorrow.

He added: “The important point is that none of our players are different from other players; Whether the player is injured or on the bench or on the podium, it is important to show that we are all a team and that all our players are important to us. Even players who are left out of the list have performed well when they play. Injuries and the absence of players do not worry us. I hope that the conditions of our team are ideal for the Club Cup because we have an important job there.

In the end, Nekounam, in response to the rumors of the Spanish player’s lawyer’s complaint against the club, stated: The player told us that someone is my program manager and I want to sign a contract with this program manager, and the Steel Club has signed a contract. Nothing else has happened.
