Bento kept trying to play possession football when we dont have many technically skilled players. Shin at least knew that our strength is to play direct and fast. Not possession.
We would've beat Qatar today if we had Han Kwang Song and Pak Kwang Ryong in our team. We must accept Kim Jung Eun's terms and field a joint Korean team starting from the WCQs. /s.
Sad how we do this after every manager "Well at least STY... Stielike... HMB... CKH... CKR... didn't xyz" basically all the back to Hiddink. Last manager people were semi-satisfied with was Friendship Raddish.
I'd say we basically already are Sunderland with how we've operated for 15+ years. Should have hired Gunes and been done with it
And then they will titillate us post-WC with all these "standards" for hiring a competent foreign coach. Media will up the hype by spreading rumors that a "well known former EPL coach" has taken a "great interest" in the KNT. But by the end of the month, KFA will announce a mediocre European manager whose last gig was at a mid-table Qatari or Chinese club and say that no manager wants to come to Korea, etc. Cue the closing of BSK "New Manager" thread and hopeful masturbation aided by string of ostensibly impressive results in international friendlies (e.g. beating/drawing jetlagged CONMEBOL teams).
I honestly do not see Bento changing his ways, nothing will change, so do we want to stick with him for another 2-3 years? If not we have another problem as KFA also needs a revolution otherwise same old merry go round.
Bento, the team and KFA all failed. Only a revolution can really make a change. Korea's football skill level is not that great, we need to stop riding the false sense that we are one of Asia's top dog, we are not. I would rate Korea's skill level to be B grade at very best, really it's C grade level. There is no true leadership in this current team as well.
Shin would've done the same thing in some Asian Copa. LOL. If you can't figure out that they got the exact same game plan, go to bed.
i can respect that some peoples coping mechanism is to pretend no coach can do any better with koreas shit players but just a reminder that shin taeyong didnt struggle with raising morale of the players mid tournament or seeing that the team needed changes. in his first international tournament he got the team to play better each match (big comparison to the guy who just went 5 consecutive matches with zero hints of progress in between). i dont want shin taeyong back but people need to stop being so dismissive of him
I don't know if I should be giving advice to fans of a rival team but for what it is worth, I don't think Bento has done poorly with S.Korea. The Koreans didn't look great at the Asian Cup, but they weren't poor either. They didn't have the glaring weaknesses in defense that were clearly visible during the last WCQ campaign. The Koreans attack, while not stellar, was still sharper than that period as well. Overall, there were enough indications that S.Korea will be one of the top teams in Asia still and little to indicate that they were suffering from poor tactical decisions or coaching issues.
If he has the same tactics and same player selection in the next two international cycles, he should be sacked. If he has the same tactics and different player selection, he should be given more time. If the same tactics are shit for the next few cycles and the players are still l poor, he should definitely be sacked.
I seriously want to know what drugs you're on, because it's doing a serious amount to your delusions. The only three matches that were even considered good under his tenure were the two international friendlies vs Colombia and Serbia(The 4-1 destruction of Japan at their Home turf was satisfying, but then again it was with our B-team), and the historical win over Germany, but that's it. We played poorly/pussified vs Sweden, a match we should've won baring the Swedes barely done anything outside of their own box, we played a tad bit better vs Mexico, and it wasn't until our last group match vs Germany where our players played with pure grit and 투혼. Also, can you really say that it was Shin Tae-yong behind raising team morale and what not? as far as his management is concerned, it's quite obvious that the majority of the help/tactics etc. came from the 71 year old Toni Grande, not to mention it was he who saw Ko Yo-han's capabilities at CDM, or Cho Hyun-woo being the better keeper. Let's also not forget about the shitshow being Honduras in the QFs of Rio Olympics in 2016, so many blown chances against a weak Honduran side, only to lose 1-0 off a simple counter, or blowing a 2-0 lead vs Japan at the finals of the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship, a tournament we clearly were the favorites to bury it away, and don't even get me started with the other matches as well. I understand that you hate the criticisms towards Shin Tae-yong, especially that being coming from me(Mostly), but there's nothing to be dismissive about when he hasn't made that much of a big impact as a manger in general. Wake up and smell the coffee, the reality is that Shin Tae-yong isn't a better manager by whatever margin you're deluding yourself into believing, he simply can't manage. Also, weren't you the very member who listed Bento as a candidate the KFA should look into during our managerial search?
Hey man. Bento already said he's gonna keep playing some Leeyong Messi shift. So why two more games? What does two more mean? Why not 3? Why not 30? What is the significance of two?
Shin is in every way, a better coach than Shietler. But Shin is a vagina. I don't think I will ever, ever see a team play 7 back against Svedven.
This was the ironic part, he deployed an attacking 4-3-3 only for our team to play passively and defend against a team with tactics to defend 90 minutes of the match.
Man the poll doesn't make any sense now that I saw it. The two choices are the same and we don't have any options unless it meants firing Bento in the middle of the tournament. Also what does it mean after the AC, like few years from now or like the month after AC? What about the option of not firing him? Or waiting?
I mean, it's really not ironic. Shin is just a vagina. And he tricked himself to think he's not by playing some 4-3-3.
I'm just pissed they shut down my old thread and this dude took my idea and went with it. And yes I want to keep him until two more matches.
