I would be very suprised if Italy will eliminate France. Not to say this as if it will be an easy game for France.
Ok, enough talk. When do we sign Lee Sueng-woo up for KNT? I've been asking for this since last year?
hes a) had a successful u20 campaign and b) looks to be on his way of getting regular playing time at senior level. pretty much the two criteria fans agreed hed have to checkmark before he can become eligible for the senior team but id rather not expose him to the shitshow national team is right now. i specifically do not want him to ever have to interact with the dumbass korea has in charge right now. theres no telling what the midas touch might do to the kid if senilike is fired after june and shin taeyong (or whomever else) takes over itd actually be a good pr move to pick him. takes some attention off the new hiring. though i am not sure if there is room for his use against a bunkering iran or during a do or die match in uzbekistan
I would wait till a) he gets playing time at Barca B (or whatever pro team he ends up) and b) after the whole shitty qualifiers are over and the reign of the old German is ended. Who knows, he might end up being maknae at the WC2018 (unless we go crazy and nominate Kangin just to troll the Japs )
dont know what you mean by getting bossed around but he wont be treated any differently than hed be at other senior teams. if anything koreans do 막내 stuff right hed just be the young kid that has to prove himself worthy of his spot. no one including the coaching staff is going to pander to him and they shouldnt.
Let's not talk about the things Ahn Ik-Soo did to him. Letting him carry bags, etc. Imagine that man had become this team's head coach. We'd have been kicked out already.
He let LSW and PSH buy coffee and ice cream for the other players just to show them that "this is Korean culture".
can one of you please explain the phobia korean abroads have with korean cliques? did an older korean 똥침 through your anus too hard or something? were you stressed out because they asked if you can get them some cup noodle one time after knowing you for 7 years and you arent up for this chore bullshit? nothing bullish/crass happens. ahn iksu is an outlier that most korean fans actively criticize still to this day
My mistake for not being clear about being "bossed around". What I meant was LSW's physical side of the game. I am worried about LSW's lack of playing time against senior players (and his size) leading to his plays being negated.
I only cited what really happened. I don't think under any other manager or team mates, LSW will have the same problem again. Edit: and no, I don't have any problems nor phobia.
also...but if what Aeh said it's true...i got a feeling that they played an awful tournament on purpose.
No. It was Ahn Ik Soo's tactical deficits that led to that result. And of course you are mentally affected if your coach doesn't trust you and plays a style that doesn't fit you. Also, they lacked match fitness back then unlike now.
