Jalal Hosseini -- New Star!

[Bauvafa]

How impressive can Hosseini get considering his limited international experience. It becomes more evident when you compare him to Rezaie with tons of internation experience in TM and club level. He was solid again against China despite his lack of speed which he makes up for by his intelligence and positioning. With Rezaie retiring, this could be one of the best things happening to TM. I like to see Hosseini and Nosrati/Aghili against Malaysia, also a chance to rest Rezaie.

Hope to see many many more games from Hossieni.

He's very natars, I love his game. He's had two brilliant games, and played a good tournament before that. But the challenge with all Iranian players is as soon as they play good they get an inflated sense of themselves and either perform poorly or inconsistantly. So yes, he's a star now, just like Andranik, Nekounam, Karimi and others who think just by being in Europe they've proved themselves. But it's not sufficient to be a star like these players, we need Hosseini to be like a Mahdavikia, who plays consistantly sold every game. If he does that he'll be a team super-star, not just a star like some of our other players who just shine from time to time.

old stars fading yet luckily new starts are rising to take their place.

hosseini aghili and nosrati can be trusted to hold their own when rezaie is gone end of this tournoment.

Very true. I believe it won't take more than one year and we will see Hosseini playing in Europe.

i hope he stays motivated , dont let the praise go to your head.

 

[ardy]

We've got a new solid gold people. Nosrati and Hosseini can easily secure us for at least another Asian Cup.

 

[Kaesra]

very true , This guy is also more useful in corner-kicks and free-kick

Spot on! I can't believe it -- its like you stole the words outta my mouth.

I think Jalal is a more humble fellow though. (or at least, hope)

 

[Jaguar]

i think he played awsome so far. cleared a LOT of balls in the defense and had good scenes on corner kicks as well (also the goal against uzbekistan).

mashallah jalali.

 

[Iranalltheway]

I loved his game as well, he perfectly covered for Rezai at times and filled up the space behind him acting as the sweeper. Not to mention he was brilliant in the air, he won every airball there was. Where the hell was he until now?

 

[Khabalood]

He has been a dominant player for Iran for a long time now. Some like myself had even advocated his presence during Branko's time as coach. His U23 teammate Montazeri also has potential although I have not seen him play for a year.
