I presume no accident he's tweetin to KJC in his first tweet in almost two months...

 

Han kook young is also talking to kjc
on twitter and on the phone

 

JDW must be buried as Wickham is now the only one of the two getting reserve minutes.

 

Nothing happening?

 

It's November...still got over a month until the transfer window opens.

 

Seemed a little more appropriate. Our KPA's have really got to do a better job picking their situations.

 

Except JDW had nothing to do with Bruce getting sacked.

 

Some more strong indications Ji is headed to Augsburg:

hopefully if MON is/isnt canned, jdw still gets to escape.

This confirms the rumors. Augsburg director openly admitted to Augsburg press of his interest in Ji. I guess they've contacted him but didn't put in an offer yet.

I believe it was PSV that was the main competitor.

 

yeah it was psv vs. sunderland. most of us here wanted psv over sunderland too...

 

yup and when JDW picked sunderland over psv the entire forum was like...

 

I'm not sure, but I do remember a lot of us being happy about his move to Sunderland. The only gripe was the transfer saga between Sunderland and Chunnam (buy-out fee vs market value).

 

Actually, no. PSV didn't match Sunderland's offer (1 mill vs 3.5 mill).

at the time... no brainer move to sunderland imo. If it was like 1.5 sunderland i'd go to psv. 2 mil... i'd think about it. Keep in mind Bruce brought him there not Martin oneil. JDW is unlucky.

 

You can be football smart and talk about development but you can't take away $$ and the dream of playing in the PL. if you had his contract in front of you i doubt you'd sign up with PSV.

 

Eh, from what I know, every Korean footballer who has ever played with PSV has gone on to play in the Premiership... on top Premier League teams. It's not the means of being football smarts or development. It's picking a manager, situation, and system in which you can fit well in. Every dream without a well-laid plan will fail.

 

except Huh-Jung-Moo
