You joke but I don’t think people realize how much fucking wonga the Koreans bring to the club. I went to Wolves at home in February, there were thousands upon thousands of Koreans there. I believe Wolves have Hwang Hee-Chan so it was both of their national team’s best players. Still, Son is like a national hero there, he’s way bigger and more culturally important to Koreans than most realize.

We’ve got tons of die hard Korean fans now and continuing his legacy is a very smart business decision. It’s why I wish we’d have gone for Kim Min-Jae.
Champions of business

You’ll never sing that
 
but fans also have a point, where are the first team game changing signings we need
Remember, the manager said "I want people who want to play here, not players looking for CL or the like".

I'd guess we're not getting the "first-team game-changing type of players", we're getting Ange's players.

I'm not fussed, I just want the team to click. I want us to work like the finest Swiss timepiece crossed with an angry BSDM dominatrix that forgot your safe word. All-out calculated and clinical assault without let-up.

"2 more to be completed anytime now. Not literally this week, but waiting go-ahead. Then 2 more is the plan before window closes"



So 4 more from here Herc? sureeee, sounds legit
 
Fab and POK break this news on Twitter.

10 mins later Hercules ‘confirms’ they are true.

Rob ‘the boss’ on SC then makes a comment about how they are all 1 month late with the ‘ITK’. Hinting they’ve known all about this deal for ages.

Why not fucking share it before Fab and POK then you tools?

They really have no fucking shame over there do they?

Donation drive incoming.
Should be investigated for fucking fraud. It's a total utter scam.

Then again, any div sending them money probably deserves to be mugged off for being so dense.
 
He looks OK but I wouldn’t get too excited given the quality of those K-League defenses.

Does he look any better than Moore? I can’t really tell I guess but it doesn’t really seem like he is. We may as well just buyback Jack Clarke if we are going for talent like this though.
I think that people are making way too big of a deal out of this.

He's recently turned 18 and is going to stay in Korea on loan until January, before he probably heads out on another loan.

He's one for the future and not a deal made for instant improvement of the team.
 
Remember when Mitoma was the hottest shit since sliced poo? Everyone was saying he's better than Son and the best Asian player in the world. Also moaning that our scouts are shit and Brighton are much better at scouting.


Now we have a secondary policy and budget like Brighton and the same fans are moaning about it. It's fucking insufferable levels of limp-whinge.
Can only be judged at the end of a window.

Signings like this are fine as long as we add some first team quality.

The fact he is joining the squad in Jan may be used as an excuse not to get another attacker this summer though.

Our fans were whining about how our scouting was shit and we needed to use data like Brighton, and to a lesser extent, Brentford.
Then we pulled the plug on Raya and signed Vicario.......

Moore is a completely different tier of prospect altogether. Moore is arguably the most talented young attacking midfielder for his age group in England, and if not for Lamine Yamal, I might even dare say Europe.

So I didn't make it up?

What d'ya know :mourloopy:


I fully get people wondering why we didn't get any first team signings done before the tour... but maoning about an 18 year old kid scouted from a league that very clearly shows we have extended our scouting programme... morons.

i don't think he can even qualify for a working permit yet. He'll probably be years away.

They love it, absolutely love it. Give them a cryptic and they go weak at the knees for it and start throwing money at them like it’s a strip club.

A&C has the cleanest Aristotle on the internet the amount of fucking tongues he has up it.

Herc word vomits and people treat him like a Demi god even though the cunt can’t spell to save his life.

Trix is never off the site and clearly has no life - they love it, can’t get enough of it.
