ponsaelius Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Who was the South Korean player who was playing RW or RWB yesterday? Was about a foot taller than the rest of his team. http://www.donga.com/photo/news/200906/200906180230.jpg Just wanted to elaborate a bit more on one of my personal legends Du-Ri Cha is a bit of a cult hero over here. He's a complete freak of nature: an Asian with the speed of Martins and the strength of Drogba (runs the 100m in under 11 seconds, has actually tussled shoulder-to-shoulder with Drogba and knocked him over.) Just one thing: he cannot play football. At all. If he had even an ounce of aptitude for the game he probably would have been the greatest striker to ever wear a Korea shirt, instead he got shunted out to fullback midway through his career because his club manager realized that was the position where he'd be able to use his speed and strength while doing the least damage to the team as a whole. It's a bit mental at South Korea home games. We cheer whenever he picks up the ball, cheer whenever he steamrolls over an entire flank and runs through onto goal, and cheer even louder when he inevitably f***s it up in the most comical fashion imaginable. Absolute legend (and he'll be marking Messi by the way) Would love it for us to sign him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I though it crazy that Capello was given an extension prior to the world cup. So far it's not looking good for him. All his decisions seemed to go wrong. In spite of all that, we only missed out on winning because our goalkeeper threw the ball into his own net.

captainhaircut Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Andre Ayew and Anthony Annan would be very good signings for a Premier League club looking to spend. Both are at great ages and would be picked up for less than 5m for the two of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I'd love us to go after Annan after seeing more of him. He'd add so much dynamism to our midfield it's unreal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was such a powerful strike that he couldn't handle it. It took him into the net as well, iirc. It was like watching Shaolin Soccer. Looked like CGI.

Dokko Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Cha Du Ri Cheers. Was he wearing some other name on the back of his shirt? I think all the korean names were mushed together and in caps, so it would've been DURI. I think. Explains why i've been struggling to find out about him.

All his decisions seemed to go wrong. In spite of all that, we only missed out on winning because our goalkeeper threw the ball into his own net. Still had a full half of football do do something about the score and you failed too. If Joe Cole had been put on, or even Defoe at some point, your chances would have been far greater. From a coaching standpoint I felt it was a really poor performance. Don't understand why Rob green was picked in the first place. James is the most experienced and Hart is the most in form and neither of the two were picked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasnt disappointed so much the amount of chances we created. Lennon, SWP, Heksey were all put into very good goal scoring positions. Its natural and easy to say "player X" would have scored but its bloody annoying that 3 different players wasted good scoring opportunities. Heskey's in particular had me raging - smacking it straight at the keeper when clean through is unforgivable in my book. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicago_shearer Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 God I hate Alexi Lalas. Stupid ginger clown. Shut up about Tim Howard ffs. It doesn't make sense how far ahead of the competition Univision is. I'm switching. It's really a question of how you want to spend the time between matches.
