After selling the 1st team players
I think Al-Zawra have a problem..

Al-Zawraa should get Alaa Abdul Zahra and Ibrahim Khaldoon back from Mes Kerman. They don't even see any playing time over there. And it's a shame a world class goalie like Nour Sabri is on the bench over there. They seem to have too many foreigners in the first place and that's why the Iraqi trio doesn't see much playing time.

I agree with you.. and we have the AFC Champions league
so we need them so badly
