Ali Daie is an intelligent and hard working man. He is one of the very few Iranian players in recent year who has a university degree. What separated Daie from the rest of Iranian players was not his talent but his dedication to his work and him being a hard worker.
He gave 110% to every opportunity that was given to him and therefore was successful in almost everything in his career except coaching.
As a person Ali Daie is a religious man and therefore part of the system in Iran. He always maintained good relationship with IR government and this is how he was able to be so influential in national team and very successful business man. Some might call him opportunist but I think he just shares the same ideology with regime and in his heart, he agrees with them.
Based on his relationships and not his talent and credential, he took a National team coaching job. Again, I believe he knew he may not have enough knowledge for this job but he decided to take a risk!!!
If the risk would have paid off, t would have made him a legend but now that it has not, well, he is paying the price for it.
Was he selfish to take such a risk and play with millions of people emotion and dreams to reach his own personal goals and agenda??
In my personal opinion, yes, I think he rushed into it and did not do his homework. He decided to be selfish and put himself before Iran. There are a lot of people like Ali Daie in our country and even in our board who would have done the something.
Have we seen the end of Ali Daie? No, we have not. If you are part of this system, you will be given opportunities after opportunities especially if you are as influential as Ali Daie. He will be back in some shape or form in near future.
Did his latest endeavour tarnish his legacy? I don’t think so. People, who loved Daie, still love him and people who hated him still do. But more importantly is I don’t think he cares!!!
Yesterday when he said to the reporter that , you were all waiting for Daie to Fail, shows that all he thinks is himself and his accomplishment and not Iran and fans and ....
