Ikon Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Not seen much of him from what I can remember. Going by what they are saying on RTG makes me feel positive about this though considering that they actually seem to think it's a good signing Sounds like a solid addition to the squad from what I've read.

KaKa Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Oldtype, from your detailed description above it sounds like he could be someone to rotate with Shelvey perhaps? Felt we missed a similar player to Shelvey when he was unavailable last season. Could that be his role maybe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 As an Aussie Korean who has been following Newcastle since the mid 90s, this is a dream come true. My favorite Korean player playing for Newcastle. I have followed ki throughout his career and I could write an essay. But I just need an outlet to say I am so farken happy. I’m now living in korea and woke up due to a mosquito. I check the news and now this. I can’t get back to sleep. Also so happy that I will be able to watch all Newcastle games on tv...and be able to buy kits and other stuff without ordering it from overseas. this is just Unreal. korea beating Germany and now this...Christmas has come early! Hahaha hahaha! I love this. Awesome for you man. The mosquito bit tickled me for some reason. Interesting way to get transfer updates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Look how good Shelvey and Diame were this year. Hopefully he can get the most out of Ki as well who seems to be talented. Rafa is King! Gets so much out of his players. (pls don't bring the Lascelles Diame up ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Random but pleasantly surprised. Guess this means Merino is off and we are going to shopping around the bargain basket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Random but pleasantly surprised. Guess this means Merino is off and we are going to shopping around the bargain basket. Probably. Seems like smart business. No matter how little we plan to spend this will free up a coin or two for other players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how little we plan to spend this will free up a coin or two for other players. thought he’d already agreed move abroad given how little talk there’d been of him being out of contract. Always like it when we sign a player from a country we’ve not had represent too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 As much as it is nice that out's of the blue i get the feeling it only is that way because it's a free transfer. Won't happen with anything else where significant money is involved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 It's not a bad signing, but doesn't get me excited at all. I'm always wary of signing players from teams who have been around the relegation zone for a number of seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't happen with anything else where significant money is involved. Nah we signed quite a few players without any prior media speculation last season. It also shows papers & twitter are full of shit barring a tiny fraction of the time. I would not be surprised at all to see a few other signings come out of the blue.

Wullie Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Haven't seen much of him in the last couple of years but was a big fan of his a few seasons ago. He completely embarrassed our midfield in one of the derbies under Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true, it was only joselu and manquillo that was out of the blue. All the others were pretty much in the press for weeks before they happened.

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 The interviewer on NUFC TV says "You could be the first Korean to play for Newcastle". Does the interviewer think we've got another Korean lined up? KI says he's good at dead ball delivery. Nice to have another option as at the moment it's only Shelvey or Ritchie.
