Nah, they're rubbish. What have they ever done except make machine guns?
So basically if Sonny doesn't win this one we lose him for 2 years some time very soon? What a kick in the stomach that will be, especially seeing as he could have been exempt of having to do his Military service if Leverkusen had let him play in these games 4 years ago :s
Where would you rank South Korea on their strength compared to other teams in this tournament pal? With how it sounds it looks like the odds are stacked against Son from achieving what he needs to
Before the tournament, the team was praised as "one of the best U23 teams we've ever had". It turned out it is one of the worst teams we've had. By just looking at the players' names, SK is the strongest out of all, but this team has never played together bf (no chemistry at all) + this manager doesnt know what he's doing...
Not sure how to rank the team.. But it seems like Uzis will make it to the finals easily.
Well hopefully they get better as the tournament goes on. Winning group games etc is all well and good, it's when it gets to the knockouts where form picking up and pressure really kicks in so it's still probably all to play for. Are you South Korean? If so best of luck with the outcome of these games
It's very shrewd by our club. If Korea win the tournament, Son's value triples.
The Asian Cup is an official FIFA full international event, and as such he has to be released by his club team if he is called up. The Asian Games is a U-23 event, and thus we did not have to release him.
He's in this situation to begin with because Leverkusen declined to release him for the 2014 Asian Games which South Korea won.
In today's market for sure.
I would be suprised if the club didn't have some other form of certainty about this however.
The group stages seemed pretty meaningless though. Almost impossible not to get out of the group. It's only now you really get to see how good teams are. The Uzbeks got turned over by Palestine recently so they can't be that good.
Really? They've never appeared on my football radar, never looked like qualifying for the WC etc. In my ignorance I'd have had them in the same pool as the likes of Syria or Vietnam

They've been improving a lot lately. They cudnt make it to the WC bc of GD/1~2 points diff for the past 2 WCs.

duspurs now 2-0. It’s in the other matches thread.
Quality, should have checked there first!

There was a bit of horse trading that went on - we let him go to this, he doesn't go to a couple of friendlies later in the year and I think he goes later to the January games than he would have otherwise... added to the fact this may mean he avoids MS.
