The Argus – BRIGHTON, ALIREZA JAHANBAKHSH has been backed to boost Albion’s goals tally.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u00a317 million record signing was top scorer in the Dutch top fight with AZ Alkmaar last season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He almost broke his duck for the Seagulls when striking the bar against Huddersfield during what manager\u00a0Chris Hughton\u00a0regarded as the Iranian winger’s best performance for the club so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yes and I am hoping we are going to see more,” Hughton told The Argus. “He is a goalscorer and that is why we brought him in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Particularly in a 4-3-3, you know you can get goals from your number nine but we are missing Jose’s goals from last year from the left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Jurgen is a different player, Anthony hasn\u2019t been a big goalscorer for us, so you like to think that with Alireza in the team we can get more goals.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jahanbakhsh and the recalled Bernardo behind him at left-back face a test from Crystal Palace’s potent combination of Wilfried Zaha and Aaron Wan-Bissaka at Selhurst Park on Saturday after Hughton played them together against Huddersfield for the first time in the Premier League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hughton said: “Bernardo was in good form before he got injured, and I don’t think Gaetan has done badly at all, but on balance Bernardo got the nod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Alireza is now back from the Asian Cup, he has been with us a while and he is a player we value and brought here for big money.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
