Looks like he played pretty well but didn't have his shooting boots on! Don't like seeing him getting kicked about either.5:57. What a sprint.
Not soon enoughWhen is he back?
When is he back?
Don't like that!!!After Korean Football Association abusing Sonny for another full 90 min for the next stupid friendly on Tuesday by and through the newly appointed Korean national squad manager named Paulo Bento Desperado
Doubt he will be ready to start Sunday thenAfter Korean Football Association abusing Sonny for another full 90 min for the next stupid friendly on Tuesday by and through the newly appointed Korean national squad manager named Paulo Bento Desperado

Long flights and jet lag are tiring, but I'm an unfit pensioner who is usually back to normal within two nights sleep. As long as we're not expecting him to play the minute he gets off the flight, surely he should be ok. Having said that, he is their main man and does push himself for the whole 90 minutes.I understand the concerns about Sonny's game/travel time, but honestly, how different is any of this to Kane or any other player seen as irreplaceable by their national team?
Aren't some perhaps being a bit precious.... ?
Does a few extra hours tagged onto his flights mean he's somehow more prone to injury or burn out?

I guess this was my main point... This scenario exists with most int. teams who have game changers yet aren't blessed with depth...
e.g.
Bale/Wales
Zaha/Ivory Coast
Feels like there's a slightly patronizing undercurrent where somehow we need to protect 'gentle', 'wee' Sonny whereas the other lads should just 'be men' and 'get on with it' (subject to flight lengths).
I think you felt wrong. sort of little too defensive and twisted?
whatever ugly get back to your maskShhhh fanboy.... Yids are talking.
