Nasser Hejazi: “I cancelled my trip to Dubai so that I won’t be accused of obstructionism”

PLDC - Nasser Hejazi after refusing to comment about Esteghlal team, said: “They do not recognize me as a specialist to ask my opinion.” Hejazi told reporters yesterday:" I was going to travel to UAE for the Asian Club championship games, but the papers wrote that I am going there because Al-Ain club has asked me to go, and I will tell them Esteghlal’s secrets, I decided to cancel my trip so if Esteghlal loses, they do not blame me for it.
I will talk about Esteghlal after the games, and I wish them success. About Perspolis, Hejazi told reporters:” Since Perspolis’s group is not as tough as Esteghlal’s, I assume that Perspolis’s only real opponent will be the host team because of the cold weather of the area.
Perspolis should be able to defeat the other teams but since they have not signed any high-quality strikers this season, I’ll give them a %50 chance of advancing.”
Hejazi continued:” Perspolis must arrange its team according to its opponents, and that’s only possible they have seen tapes of the other teams, otherwise they will have to walk in with no knowledge of the opponent and closed eyes. Since only one team will advance from each group, Perspolis has a difficult task, and the players must work together in order to achieve success.”
At the end Hejazi talked about Minavand and said:" He is a national team player and has enough experience, if he gets ready physically, he will not have a problem against the Asian opponents.”
