I am worried about Ashs situation. Having no club a year prior to the WC is actually a disaster to be honest. What happened to the Greece rumours?

In last 3 years how many competitive games he played other than TM matches? I wouldn't take this guy to Russia next year if he doesn't find a club soon and doesn't play much....Comment

The ultimate price for going to Qatar...Comment

You guys keep forgetting how good this guy is even without a club. Remember our last match against Korea? He was a beast in that game

From a highly rated Bundesliga and EPL player to his current situation....
He made awful decisions and I'm not sure if he ever gets the second chance to perform at the highest level. More realistic option is going to a second tier league like Greece, Netherlands or Turkey to play regularly and remain fit for Russia.Comment

He kind of knew about his knee situation and wanted to secure his family financial situation, i understand that, but why he can't even find a mid table Greek, Belgian team is just weird!!Originally posted by Kiarash View PostComment

"Dejagah: Fulham In My Heart
Friday 28 July 2017 17:15
When Ashkan Dejagah found out that Fulham were hosting VfL Wolfsburg in a pre-season friendly, he was quick to book a flight back to London.
The Iranian represented both sides with distinction in his career, and he’s looking forward to seeing them go head-to-head at the Cottage on Saturday.
“When I heard about the friendly game, I was like ‘I have to be there!’” Dejagah told fulhamfc.com. “It’s nice, Wolfsburg versus Fulham, so I am coming tonight until Sunday.
“I think it will be a great friendly game for the supporters and all the players. It’s a great test for Fulham, and Wolfsburg will try to do well in this game because they know the league is starting soon and they want to find their first XI.
“I expect it will be a great game. I follow Fulham on Instagram and I see they’re working very hard, and last season they did really well. I think it should be a great test for both teams.
“It will be my first time back at the Cottage since I left. To be honest, I am a little bit nervous! But Fulham was a great time for me, so I am looking forward to it.
“I know the team has changed a lot, but I know some of the staff, like the physios, are the same and I’m looking forward to seeing them.”
Dejagah went down in Wolfsburg folklore when he was part of the side that won the Bundesliga title for the first time in the club’s history.
“It was a nice time at that moment,” he recalled. “It was my first move from Hertha Berlin to another team and it was great for me, those five years.
“We won the league once, and we also played in the Champions League and the Europa League, so it was a good experience for me.
“There were big players in that team like Edin Dzeko, Grafite, [Andrea] Barzagli from Italy, so it was a great team.”
The season after lifting the Bundesliga trophy, the Wolves found themselves up against Fulham in the Quarter-Finals of the UEFA Europa League.
Dejagah came off the bench in each leg, but couldn’t prevent his future employers from securing a famous 3-1 aggregate win.
“Both games were tough,” he admitted. “It was of course a special year for Fulham. They did very well, and it was not easy to play against them with all their good players, but it was still a nice experience.
“Getting to play at Craven Cottage for the first time was special for me. Unfortunately in that moment, Fulham qualified and we were out. I still remember the game exactly, when Damien Duff scored his goal, our last minute header after the corner-kick, everything.”
That feeling of running out at the Cottage would soon become a regular occurrence for the winger, as he joined the Whites little more than two years later.
“The Premier League was always a dream for me,” Dejagah stated. “After all my time in the Bundesliga, I wanted to be in the Premier League in England. I watched a lot of games in England when I was in Germany.
“Then Martin Jol gave me a chance and it was maybe the best time of my career, those two years. I really enjoyed my time at Fulham.”
While 2013/14 was a productive one personally for Dejagah as he netted six goals, which were often screamers, it ended in heartbreak for the Club.
“At Fulham it was the first time I had experienced relegation,” he explained. “It was hard to accept because we actually had a good team. If you count the names, it was a great team, but football is not easy.
“We tried everything, especially for the supporters. It was sad for them because it was always fantastic to play in Craven Cottage, with them behind us. They tried until the last game to support us, and so relegation was not easy to accept.”
A move to Qatar beckoned for the Iran international after the Whites’ drop into the Championship, but it was with a heavy heart that he left SW6.
“I had a great time at Fulham, so it was not easy for me to leave,” Dejagah said. “It was a really difficult situation for me because Fulham was like a family club. In my two years they really were in my heart.
“It’s the same with Wolfsburg, I also had a good relationship with their supporters. I always tried to give my best, at Wolfsburg and Fulham. For me, the first thing was to make sure I gave everything on the pitch for the club.
“I’m still following Fulham, I still get a lot of messages on my Instagrams from Fulham supporters. I just want to say thank you to them, and I hope they saw I was always trying to give everything for the Club.”"
