Navidkia: I deserved to be rated as the worst player of the week

Q)     The worst player in week number 11 was NavidKia, what are your thoughts about that?

A)     I deserved the criticism.

Q)    Do you wish to justify your bad play?

A)     Not by any means.  We thought we were untouchables and that cost us.

Q)    What happened?  Can you add some details?

A)     If 4 or 5 players had played their usual football we could have easily won.  Only Armenak played well on our side.

Q)    Was this a bad play on your side or a good performance made by the opponent team?

A)     Yes, they also deserve some credit.  They tried hard and won the game ultimately.  As for myself I believe I played hard and performed better than the average.

Q)    It looked at times that you wanted to get rid of the ball as soon as you got it, regardless of who would get the ball ultimately?

A)     When you have a bad day these sorts of situations happen.

Q)    Some believe that you should have been substituted?

A)     Only the coach can decide that.  I never think that I should always be the fixed player.

Q)    You mentioned that your team regarded themselves as untouchables. How much of that do you share personally?

A)     We had defeated both Esteghlal and Persepolis.  I am hesitating to say this but when I was playing against their captain, I was thinking he should try to cover me.  I learned quite some lessons out of this game.

Q)    One positive point about this game was although your team was loosing the game they did not lost their poise?

A)     Our coach always teaches us to use our god given brain instead of emotions.

Q)    What do you think about the next match against Fajr Sepasi?

A)     We have to re-organize.  Nevertheless there are few things that I personally should learn.

Q)    What were the reactions of the fans?

A)     They did not expect the loss and naturally were upset.  I am hoping we can make up for this loss this week.

Q)    And what about TM?
