People look at comps all wrong. Everyone looks good in highlights (apart from Emerson) but I look at things like ballstriking, aggression, agility close control etc. the level of the opposition has little effect on these things.
Would have been hard to resist the offer given the combination of Sonny, Big Ange, EPL and Big 6 club.
Just FYI, South Korea's flag literally has a Yin and Yang right in the middle of it...Yeah, I'd LOVE to say that's a perfectly balanced opinion, but you do know that concept is from CHINESE philosophy, not Korean??
Jesus people, we're ALL as bad as eachother!!!

Nah, that's just a subliminal PEPSI logo with stripes on!!
I know what you mean, and yes, it does definitely have a Yin/Yang symbol...
Maybe THEY stole the idea from the Chinese???
Or maybe, just MAYBE, they all have similar philosophies based on the same original beliefs??
Gil’s highlights in Spain were of him being a very orthodox LW who rarely did any shooting. Dribble, Cross with the odd through ball
Yang is very different, stockier and is more of an all-round forward. He looks to have natural aggression and physicality, and he’s an excellent natural presser.
Oh for sure.
We obviously talk about the pressure about succeeding Kane. But succeeding Son, as another South Korean prospect no less, will put just as much if not more weight on the poor kids shoulders.
I don't see why we have to compare him to Son just because they have the same nationality.
We dont have to but he inevitably will.
I think that the pressure from SK media will be by far the toughest for him.
Sonny's been arguably the best footballer in Asia for like a decade. and here comes this 18 year old that plays in the same position to the same club that Sonny made his name at. There will sadly be comparisons drawn.
It be like comparing GLC to Ardiles, just because they're both from Argentina
More than simply Chinese it comes from Confucianism which has been widely practiced in Korea since around the 4th century AD.Yeah, I'd LOVE to say that's a perfectly balanced opinion, but you do know that concept is from CHINESE philosophy, not Korean??

Maybe Bentancur saw this coming!!
The 3 criteria we are judging him on are:
Criteria 1: is he any good?
Criteria 2: How much did he cost?
Criteria 3:Where is he from?
There IS no criteria 3!!!9n
The groups of three lines around the ying-yang symbols are called "trigrams" and are the basis of the I-Ching, the oracle which dates back to China in the 9th-century BC and which had a significant influence on Confucianism.
Difference is there's not much superstar talent from South Korea like Son who also plays in similar positions. Happens in Australia too, next Harry Kewell etc.
I wonder how much influence Ange has in deals like Veliz, Bergvall, Gray, and now this lad, it says to me he's planning on sticking around at least for the next 3-4 seasons and seeing some of these guys blossom into elite young players in their early 20s? We saw exactly what Conte thought of "club" signings like Spence, but we've seen more of these types of deals by far under Ange than we did with Conte, maybe there is an acceptance by the club that unless we secure additional funding from investors as we are touted to be trying for then the best we can do is kick the can down the road another 3-4 years and hope we have a golden generation come through all at once. I'm not necessarily against that line of thinking, but for sure our next couple of moves need to be senior players that improve the first team, because CL qualification is there to be had next season with question marks over Liverpool and Chelsea under new management, Pep seeming to lose interest at City and their court case pending, United keeping Ten Hag and INEOS purchasing the minor stake are causing a lot of noise, if we are dining at the top end of the table you can see extensions for guys like Romero and VDV being much easier to sort out.
Is it right he's not actually gonna arrive until January?
If so, there's little point working out where he'll fit into the squad this season, 'cos in all likelihood, he probably won't...
But good to know for the future!
We all know WHY we're bringing him in, and if so, that's fair enough... 'cos if he's anywhere NEAR as effective for us as Sonny has been, then it will be a marketing strategy that ALSO pays off!

Isn’t he 17 or something? This isn’t a signing for this season.
That invert the wing guy is SUCH a dick
He's actually a Spurs fan right?
Guess so . He is one of those that sees himself above the tribalism, moans non stop about Spurs fans and pretends to watch Nigerian and Ecuadorian 3rd division football to look intellectual. Pretends to be a coach and/or agent but is obviously a neckbeard in his mum's spare bedroom.He's actually a Spurs fan right?

He's got a lot to live up to!
“I also remember reading a report from a data analysis expert, and the player comparison in that article was Anthony Gordon of Newcastle.”
