The man who was death SG South korea qualified for the 2006 world cup even though they lost to saudi arabia 1-0. Coach Jo bonfrere is under fire for lacklustre displays in world cup qualifiers and last month's shock last place finish in the east asian football championship. With just 10 points from six matches in world cup qualifiers, Bonfrere will hope his under performing stars can lift themselves at the 2006 world cup. North korea beat bahrain 3-2 but that result was of little importance as it didn't change the standings in group B of qualifiers. north korea is last place in gr b
miss_soojung SG Do you think Man U signed Park Ji-sung on for his footballing skills or for a piece of the Asian market pie?
The man who was death SG Both!! Metz in french ligue probably more guilty of having a slice of the asian pie by signing ahn jung hwan
The man who was death SG i dun think so, more about nakata's skill than the money he brings in. Nakata got experience and if bolton wanted to jump on the bandwagon, they wouldn't have waited until now
miss_soojung SG Maybe Death'll help us ... when he drops by in between teasing the girls over at Club 30
eemtij SG I have to disagree. Nakata is a big name in Japan. Can sell 1 million pcs of Bolton jersey overnight. Skillwise not suitable for English game. Now not fast enough. Bolton definitely in it for the Asian market. When they were in Bangkok, they SAW the potential which is why Nakata was conformed after their Asian trip. My opinion only hor...
miss_soojung SG Poor Nakata ... one of the clothes horses (new term I learnt last night watching ESPN) I remember when Junichi Inamoto was at Fulham his Jap fans flocked the stadium! There's another Japanese player over at Celtic now, right? Nakamura?
miss_soojung SG Since the 2002 World Cup, Korean footballers playing outside of Asia - Lee Yong-pyo (MF), PSV Eindhoven Park Ji-sung (MF), Man U Ahn Jung-hwan (FC), FC Metz Seol Ki-hyun (FC), Wolverhampton Wanderers Cha Du-ri (FW), Eintracht Frankfurt Any others?
The man who was death SG Nakamura is doing well at celtic, already a fan's fav there. Inamoto is good too just that he doesn't get enough games, at least he scored against man u at old trafford
miss_soojung SG Watched Park Ji-sung in action for the second time. He looks pretty good. There's apparently a very promising young striker who's been picked to join the World Cup '06 squad - Park Chu-young? 19 or 20 yrs old.
Båseline SG Yeh, I tght Park Ji Sung had a good workout against Aston Villa. Had a shot saved by the keeper and he was lively thruout the attacking half of the field. But was substituted instead of darren Fletcher. Geee.
miss_soojung SG He was all over the place in the Everton game too. Such a pity he didn't get a goal for all the effort he put in.
The man who was death SG yeah but i think he's a midfielder and not a striker, played in the world U-20 championship and very promising.
