[Albion] Alireza Jahanbakhsh - not a rumour!

[Stumpy Tim]

No, we tried to get Alireza Jahanbakhsh a couple of years ago.

Ah - I thought he meant Van Dijk!

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Surely he is holed up with the Iranian squad in a nuclear bunker somewhere in Russia though? Surely this couldn't be completed until after the w/c?

The club will have thought of that - maybe just 1 signature required this morning, or perhaps the paperwork is further advanced than we know.

Andone wasn’t at Lancing when he singed iirc

Think they just did a mock up of him in a shirt

Hopefully the man from Iran says YES

This! I seem to remember we signed Ryan when he was international duty and the Aus media team did the interviews etc

Naylor says we are interested in him again. I think a merger of both threads needs to be done doesn't it?

 

[el punal]

As a matter of interest, have we ever signed anyone from Del Monte?

Loving the defending for the 3rd goal there.

 

[Marshy]

Some cracking strikes though

 

[The Birdman]

The first one was with his left foot followed By his right foot that's good but the keeper must have had leasons from the Liverpool keeper

 

[Hugo Rune]

Some cracking strikes though

The world class left foot volley stands out as most of his other goals are with his right. He seems like a great decision maker in and around the box, knows when to shoot or pass and usually finds the net or his man (according to last season’s showreel and stats!).

 

[dingodan]

I guess it's pronounced [yahan-bakt].

 

[Mellotron]

He has Alireza on the back of his shirt. Maybe easiest if we all agree to call him that, yeah?

[dingodan]

£22M apparently.

 

[Icy Gull]

Too exciting, seems he scores goals that’s are just as amazing as some of Izquierdo’s. Will be very very chuffed if this transfer comes off

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Cold water - this guy reckons other clubs interested :

We'll need to get this done very quickly, or I suspect it won't happen.

 

[Barham's tash]

I hate to break it to you, but that was 5 or 6 years ago!

This.

Was not referring per se to Van Dijk merely that our recruitment team identified both from a potential perspective, tried to get both ahead of time but in each respective situation we weren’t viewed as being the right club at the time.

Difference being that hopefully this time we are, and despite the obvious increase in asking price I still see potential both in terms of what he can bring [clearly] versus the ‘value’ TB will see in signing him at that price which is where you can reignite the Van Dijk comparison:

VVD €3m -> £18m -> £75m

AJ >€3.5m -> €25m -> ?

So now you speak Dutch?

To be fair I can't speak Dutch but it's fairly easy to get the gist of that tweet.
