Chris Hughton has warned Brighton fans they may have to wait until next season to see the best of £17million record signing Alireza Jahanbakhsh.
Iran international Jahanbakhsh was top goalscorer in Holland last season but has endured a frustrating time with Albion since his summer switch from AZ Alkmaar.
The 25-year-old has been restricted to just four Premier League starts and not featured for the club since November 3, partly due to his recent involvement in the Asian Cup with his country.
He was in back in training with Brighton on Friday after returning from the international tournament.
When ARJ joined Az Alkmaar, he struggled with injuries and took him a whole season to get going. CH knows what he is talking about. We will see the real ARJ most likely next year.
CH “We hope we can develop that from now through to the end of the season.
“Because of the way the season has gone it might be next season that we see the best of him.
“But I’d like to think that might be in this final three or four months of the season.”
My comment: next season starts when we get 40 points 2018-19 season and are safe from relegation
Brighton going with the same line-up that got molested by Fulham.
CH such a frustrating conservative old man...Forget AJ, how are Stephens, Bong and Locadia in the line-up?
Guys, any links please?
I love JB only because he is our only Iranian in EPL. Other than that, I’m more than happy to admit he is absolutely Rubbish. Anyone who wants to argue that is dillusional or just hasn’t watched EPL long enough to know that a player either has it or doesn’t have it. I’m sorry, JB’s first touches are dreadful. This has nothing to do with injury or whatever BS excuse you can come up for him. He shined in Netherlands, great for him. Now he wants a seat at the big boys table, but there aren’t any high chairs available for this kid at this table.
