He's really really good and would be perfect for Guardiola Play Style. I really think it's the best solution for the player and the trainer. | ||

re: why everyone is watching korean u-20 team - typical korean pride, also a lot of people (including NT members themselves) are grossly annoyed at uli stielike and want him out of the setup, presumably replaced by the u-20 manager shin tae-wook. damn his english is good. | ||

There is aparently a U-20's World Cup going on in Korea right now and England are playing Korea in front of 35,000 in Suwon. It's hard explaining to my Korean friends we don't give a shit about U-20's football and the game isn't even on the tely in England and if the game itself was in England there would only be about 500 people watching it. The England players must be wondering what the hells going on. I am confused as to whether Korea just cares a lot more about youth football or maybe they just heard Korea vs England and don't realise it's not the actually the national teams. Anyway quite a big cultural difference. Maybe we should care more about youth football. edit: I don't like the use of the word youth there. It sounds like I am talking about kids. Can't think of a better way to phrase it. koreans have much more interest in national teams and i said this before, but players also seem to play with much more pride compared to european teams. theres added interest this time though because of a couple rising stars who we are hoping can carry the senior team eventually. the korean barcelona players especially draw much attention | ||

Man City now have Bernardo Silva and David Silva to cause confusion to those not paying enough attention. I was dissapointed Exeter didn't sell out St James Park for our Play off Semi final victory we got 7,000 in and usual attendance is normally between 3,000-4,000, So I guess that's pretty good. Blackpool couldn't quite get 4,000 people in for their biggest game of the season. WTF 4,000 weren't they in the Premier League? edit: Oh Blackpool fans were boycotting the game. That makes semse. Out of boredom today since I had to go to school but most of my lessons were cancelled I was looking at the WIki article about one club men. I guess they will become few and far between in the modern era. I actually didn't know Messi and Iniesta came through the youth academy and never played at any other club. That's pretty impressive. I was under the impression Madrid and Barcelona just bought the best players but I stand corrected. | ||

Agreed, although making 41m off an 89m transfer is a bit absurd for the middle man, and the rules need to be looked at. And Raiola is a despicable turd of a man. But the point is that there was apparently something wrong somewhere in the transfer financing... and as punishment they have to pay complete peanuts in comparison to the money they made. | ||
