[Albion] Alireza Jahanbakhsh joins Feyenoord

[Arvin]

All I can tell you guys is that although Ali didn’t play today, I sure as hell enjoyed watching this match with my father.

To be able to watch games with my dad again after so many years is a special feeling.

Him and I used to wake up and watch Osasuna matches on GolTV every Saturday or Sunday back in the day. So to watch and follow a club from a top European league who has one of our players again is a nice feeling. Even when say Masoud and Javad didn’t play we still supported Osasuna for our boys.

Anyways, I’m sure we will see more from Jahanbakhsh! He knows the English game is a different one and he will have to work even harder and to adapt. But he will because he’s Alireza Jahanbakhsh. The MOST professional Iranian football player today. God bless him! Such a great feeling

Great win by Brighton. The fact that ARJ didn't play doesn't mean much. There is an acclimation period and honestly, it will take a bit of time. Eredivisie to EPL is a huge leap, he needs time - but once he is settled, better believe your last dollar he will play a big positive part in Brighton's future.

Brilliant job by BHAFC. So happy for Alireza to be part of this ambitious team.

Keep calm and remain patient.

Alireza will eventually become a big part of this team. He is a professional, mature and gifted player, but needs time to adapt. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't start in the next 5-6 games.

Let's trust the club and the coach who have trusted Alireza and followed him for at least 3 years! He is not there to warm the bench for the whole season.

Here's just a couple posts from PFDC, the first I thought was particularly heart warming

ah well ...he's starting so we'll see in a while .....

To be fair to him, he put in a much better shift on Saturday.

For all Alireza 's fans he had a run out for Brighton's under 23s last night. Here is a link for the report in our local paper. I suggest for you to keep an eye on the Brighton Evening Argus.

So much spam on the BHAFC social media accounts, those Iranian kids really do love Jahanbakhsh.

Is it quantity, or quality that sounds with social media followers?

The Instagram meltdown of Iranian Ali J fans for him not playing against United is frigging hilarious! I've never been obsessed over a player like they are.

I imagine Paul Barber is in the process of opening a club shop in downtown Tehran as we speak

Honestly, if it were not the sanctions, Brighton would be making millions off of Jersey sales in Tehran alone.

At least the Africans have finally shut up about Percy Tau.

What have the Channel Islands got to do with it?

Great stuff and a lot more level headed than some of our regular posters on here......

Nice, some sensible and realistic posts, and it's great that the Iranians are so passionate about their footy.

Jnr Bobkin read that out last night when we were talking about the Albion's new social media following...

Yep, that explains the flask situation.

Very aware of the game situation and quite unselfish. Loved the near post flick.

If he plays, where does AK play? Been awesome of late.
