    I assume the two I mentioned above were taken. Shin Tae-yong and the coaching staff chose the last one on the list: New Peterhof Hotel/Spartak Stadium Training Ground as our base camp.

    Uli should be grateful. We made a Sunday league coach and made him look like he actually knew what to do when in reality his head was so far up his ass he could see the ********ing sun.

    He's practically shitting on himself considering he's the one who drove our team into the ground.

    You were also part of that regression that led to our 2nd ever loss to China back in March.

    People need to stop giving this senile fool a platform.

    I feel sort of bad for him since the only silverware he ever won as a manager was the EAFF Cup 2015 with us.

    Pretty informative. There are other clips from LKH's appearance about his failed PSG and Euro moves, etc on the channel as well. This guy has some pretty insightful appearances about KNT I have to say.

    SHM may score a bucket load of goals, but I wouldn't put it past our defence to concede more than SHM scores.

    I seriously think its open between SK, Sweden and Mehico. So much plays in, dayform, luck etc. Then on the other hand I can see Sweden stealing points from Germany on a good day.

    SPOTV interview with Fernando Morientes. Morientes is currently in Korea for La Liga's 'El Clásico' viewing party.

    [​IMG]

    You've finally made an appearance after having worked as the manager of CF Fuenlabrada of Segunda División B. Any thoughts on returning to management?

    Of course, I want to be a manager again, although I am currently working on various projects, I am also waiting for management opportunities as well. I believe I will be back to doing management work soon.

    I know that you've tested Korean players during your time at Fuenlabrada, and there are Korean players within Spain's lower divisions and youth teams. What are your thoughts regarding the potential of the Korean players?

    There were Korean players that have played in the Spanish youth teams, semi-pro, and professional stages. From the Korean players that I've seen, they were fast and agile, as so there were big players as well, and all of the players played well through the lines: striker, winger etc. the Korean players are doing well in various areas. All of the players in Spain were the types with good ability at breaking the balance, as well as agile on 1v1 situations. There's a lot of players that have very interesting traits, so I believe that there are players that can sufficiently build a career in Europe.

    There are still Korean players actively playing in Europe. How well do you know them?

    Isn't one currently at Tottenham? Son Heung-min, I also know that there's a Korean player at Dijon FCO (Kwon Chang-hoon), and I also know that there were Korean youth players at Barcelona (Baek Seung-ho, Lee Seung-woo, Jang Gyeol-hee), I watch a lot of Football (Laughs). It's difficult to say that I know about all of the Korean players 100%, but I have an interest regarding the Korean players that play in Europe. First off, Korean players are fast, and the game tempo in Europe is fast, so if the level of Asian leagues can get higher, then I believe you'll have a greater success at adapting to European leagues.

    Korea, Germany, Mexico, and Sweden are mixed into one group at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. What advice would you give to the KNT?

    First of all, one's own football philosophy is important, Germany in particular is a very strong team and perhaps the best World Cup winner, so it's important to play with the mindset of having nothing to lose, because inevitably everyone will think that Korea will lose to Germany. It will be better off to prepare your mind with the thought of having nothing lose rather than to go out negatively thinking that we are the weakest team. I want Korea to play with the belief that they can win and that all teams are equal, especially if Korea's own football philosophy is established, then it will be helpful to their performance.

    Coach Toni Grande is currently the KNT's assistant coach, whilst Javier Mińano is working as the physical coach, and I understand that you've worked with them during your time at Real Madrid. What are your thoughts?

    Both coaches have outstanding professionalism and are excellent leaders. Coach Toni Grande was not only manager Vicente Del Bosque's most complete colleague, but the two were also the best coaching staff combination. He was a very special coach and from the top of my memory, he is a coach with excellent knowledge of the game, not only did play a big role in manager Del Bosque's decision making, but he also has a great understanding of the game as well, so it definitely must've been a big help given the fact that a coach like him was next to manager Del Bosque. Real's coaching staff role was very big. Coach Javier Mińano was good at following the new trend of football, and he would apply new concepts to the physical training, as well as I also know that he played a big part with the Spanish national team. I believe that Korea hired two great coaches. Now, since both the assistant coach and physical coach are Spanish, how about letting me be the manager? (Laughs)
