You and some of your fellow media outlets should know that I have not come for an interview. This cannot be called a debate, because I am a fan and you are a media person. But we can discuss various issues, such as why some media outlets and various factors are against the local teams, including Tractor.

Mr. Ferdowsipour, I do not agree that you are fair. Your fairness has been questioned. I once told Mr. Taj: When you say that we are healthy, you are saying this only in financial terms. Each of you, the members of the federation, has a certain degree of attachment to something. As a media person, you were unable to separate yourself from your attachment and observe fairness in the media. You recently spoke with the coach of one of the clubs and asked questions about Tractor and the government. You wanted to take the issue to another direction. The second issue is that you interviewed Alves on a day when we were playing in Sharjah and you expected us to lose and you were surfing with Alves against Tractor. You could have chosen another day to interview this player.

Is it right in terms of the rules and fairness to give a podium to someone who was not there and say that you made Tractor champions and the others and Skocic were nothing? He was here two years ago, why didn't the team win? I will show the video of the contract signing and two other photos. I do not allow a player who has moved to another club to talk about his former club. Of course, this has also happened on other programs such as football nights. I have come here as a Tractor fan to speak for the fans. I have brought Mansour Azimi to the club for several years. Ricardo Alves had a close relationship with me and we sent the contract issue to FIFA.

He has sent me messages many times about the contract. Can he take it down? There were also incidents involving Rashid Mazaheri and Reza Shekari, where the disciplinary committee issued a ruling without sufficient care – such as checking the signature – and Alves was also told to enter this way. We have the video of the contract signing and FIFA accepts this. You analyzed Shoja Khalilzadeh as Iran’s best defender, who is to blame for the goals. Do you do this with other players? After all, players make mistakes when conceding goals. Didn’t other players make mistakes in other lines? For example, midfielders in creating plays and strikers in scoring goals? I have been managing teams for nearly 30 years. In my life, I consider Shoja Khalilzadeh to be the best player I have bought in terms of management.
