Last Asia Cup 4 years ago, Son missed the first couple of games for Korea to minimize the time away from Spurs matches - I think Korea are one of the favorites and so the early games are pretty easy wins. We should be doing it again this year.
Who here has the number for the Korea FA and wants to give them a call?
I’m hearing through the grapevine we will get our business done super early this window, now pay me!

South Korea is ranked in mid 20's in the world, and they play in the group stages Bahrain and Jordan who are both ranked in mid 80's and Malaysia at 130.
So Son probably wouldn't be that missed - but sadly our best hope might be he stays on the bench for the opening matches !
Oh yawn. It’s predictable that when you can’t prove your point and obviously did not want understand to my point then you resort to cheap, childish insults – that’s an insult to human intelligence. May the Almighty bless you with maturity and intelligence,

My point was clear. You don't win the title with no CB's.
For the record, I did attempt to reply in a friendly way.
If you had to deal with Rabiot's mama in FM you'd never had signed him
One can only hope.
My own theory on it is the only reason Levy sanctioned it was because
a) Conte supposedly wanted him and Levy felt under pressure to deliver a big signing for him.
b) perhaps more importantly, Levy saw Richarlison as #PremierLeagueProven. Levy’s football knowledge is pretty much universally accepted as crap, so he probably felt in his ignorance that he was a relatively safe investment rather that spending 60 million on a player from outside the PL.
Either way, it was a daft signing and it encapsulates perfectly ENICs ineptitude that he is our record signing.

Believable until you said we will get business done early
The competition might make Romero buck his ideas in terms of being a bit rash knowing he’d lose his place and may not get it back.We need CB's
Romero is too unreliable.
Sign another player capable of being the main man at the back.
Let them fight it out for supremacy.
And then sign another CB
Title winning teams don't have to keep shuffling players from other positions into critical ones like CB all season long.
A bit of a bizarre list.
It was widely reported that Tosin didn’t want to join us in Summer and would have gone to Monaco if they could have agreed a fee. Don’t see that the CB injuries would change his stance.
Jack Clarke for 10 million — more than we sold him for — plus two promising strikers? For the record, I don’t see Parrott as having an EPL career but there’s no way we include Scarlett too.
I’m not sure if your post was pure sarcasm or otherwise.
Indeed said at the time why are we in for him? Surely an attacking forward who can beat people, has good skills and can chip in with decent qty of goals was needed for that price. The obvs 2 being ollise and eze both of who are better than rich. Having said that let’s see what Rich can do as main man when son is off to Asia cup.
Lol yeah she's supposed to be a right nightmare. That being said, it was mostly when her lad was at PSG and they're a friggin weird club, one that'd stop at nothing to discredit someone that doesn't play ball. Seem to recall reading not long ago about how they could go on trial for having recruited an army of twitter accounts to launch online attacks on people with adverse views of the club...or something along those lines. That Nasser and his mob are proper mafia type.If you had to deal with Rabiot's mama in FM you'd never had signed him
If true he's joining one of the most progressive clubs in MLS.
Rabid set of fans as well.
Young club less than ten years in the making and one that plays really good footie under Steve Cherundolo.
Good luck Hugo, loyal servant to us and a great keeper up their with our very best!
You’re 100% right according to this Athletic article in February.
“It is believed Daniel Levy did alot of the running for the [Richarlison] deal. A source close to the transfer said Levy recognised before pretty much every other Premier League club that Everton would in financial peril last summer and would be willing to sell Richarlison for a fair price. It felt like an opportunistic move rather than one that was based on 12 months of hard scouting and realization that Richarlison was the perfect fit.”
Levy found out the Everton was distressed seller and smelled a bargain - and went for the deal without regard to a philosophy, playing style or proper scouting. The usual story.
But credit where credit is due - The disastrous Jose/Nuno/Conte era seems to have taught Levy a lesson - and hopefully he’s stepped back from transfers / is letting football people recruit players that fit a playing style with minimal interference. Let’s hope it lasts and Levy sanctions the funds for a centerback early in the window.
Spurs signed Richarlison as a ready-made Premier League star — but where does he fit?
Spurs made Richarlison their record £60m signing in the summer — Antonio Conte says he is important, but he's anything but right now
