I mean Brighton plays in the EPL and pays their players well - did he shed any light on why he didn’t choose them specifically?

according to him in the interview, He was waiting on even better offers instead..!!?
but more likely the paypackage still paled in compari$on to what he was being offered to play in Gutter, and he wasnt keen on short term sacrifice in order to challenge himself in the best leagues of the world and dilly dallied too long, in silly and vain hopes of FCB/ManU come begging for his siggi and ended up stuck back in gutter goofing off with a bunch of camel jockeys...!!

Interesting interview. He confirmed having proposal from Caen (france), Gent, trabzonspor and brighton after wc2018.
He recognized he waited too long for better proposals, that's why he ended in Eupen
About living Eupen after 6 months. I can understand his points about belgium not giving visa to his family. But playing in Eupen against teams like brugge would have improved him more than playing in China

Thanks for these important notes from the interview. I always knew Pouraliganji had solid EU offers, he is one of our most decent CB's and it's a real shame he chose for the money. He could have been one of the few Iranian CB's that could make it in a solid EU league.

I think he's been after money since day 1. From a rural working class family to China, Qatar, Belgian Club owned by Qataris that can pay Qatari wages, Qatar round 2, China round 2.

His priorities are clear, he's not flashy with his money like some other players in those leagues, but he saw the $ and fell into that trap

ditto
despite his rather refreshingly genuine and sincere demeanor and rather straightforward honest answers he gave to most all other questions thrown at him in over an hour long interview. he clearly is your "Bird at Hand" sorta of a guy...! he knows he has a limited window of opportunity to make the big bocks in this line of work and isnt accepting of a challenging himself even for a reasonable limited time in a more challenging and higher exposure EU league in hopes of proving himself and then finally coming to Term$ with somewhat similar sorta money he is earning in Arab/china now..!!
he said it himself that "he could be only 1 serious injury away from being forgotten thing of the past and left alone to his vices", if there were any questions still towards his by enlarge Money Chasing mentality as clearly evident with his chosen career path so far, that statement clearly points to the fact that he is indeed Mr. PoolAliGanji...!

during the WC and watching from the stands perspective, Taremi's, Saeed's, PAG's and Amiri's performances came across to me as the most admiring overall in that order..! that was mostly because of their Drive, Confidence and selfless, non-stop hard work during Every minute on the pitch and then the general quality of their play all over..!! I had real real high hopes for his ensuing transfer to some good EU destination after WC and im now glad to know that earlier rumors about interest for him werent bs rumors..!
he shoulda really taken that BHA offer in hindsight ...!!? i dont know WTF he was thinking delaying, turning down an EPL club offer ..?? to me its for most part irrelevant what happened to ARJ there...!!? PAG coulda well been a shoe-in and easily a 3rd choice CB in the highly defensive BHA set-up of CH..!? furthermore he had the flexibility to play DM and wingbacks for them too where they were even more so in dire need of youth and quality..! probably the personal pay package were likely to be more lucrative than elsewhere in Europe too ? but off course no where near level of $aticefying his greedy ass..!!

ps
this was perhaps my favorite TM player interview ever..! professionally conducted by the host and especially pleasing because of PAG's Candid and no BS demeanor and rather admiring Vigor ...!!

he obviously still doesnt seem the grasp the value and importance of a short term SACRIFICE in order to achieve Greater things in life .... but ultimately that's ok by me, so long he keeps performing admirably in TM shirt for us fans at least..! at least he comes across Very Confident and Driven and that is very welcoming signs of success from my perspective..!! Best Wishes to him..!

Radio Offside Interview: Morteza Pouraliganji

That will be awful news if true. We really needed him for all 4 upcoming matches to be in tip top form as CB has been a major hole for TM in this round of qualification.

Unfortunately, Pouraliganji cannot play against Hong Kong due to yellow card accumulation (1 yellow card in Cambodia match and 1 yellow card in Iraq match), so he would be available at our use for the other 3 remaining fixtures.

Similar scenario happened with Taremi back in 2018 WCQ 2nd round where he got yellow 2 cards (against Turkmenistan and Oman I think), thus being suspended for home match against Turkmenistan.

Think you may have misread bro. he says its not a major injury and he will only be out for two weeks.

Not really a big deal if he misses syria friendly lol.

Ah you’re right I misread that thanks for clarifying
