Intriguing - and possibly great - new signing. Good to see they haven't wasted any time telling us what to put on our replica shirts. And why not!

 

[Japhet]

Can see a boom in kiddie size shirt sales with his name on the back.

 

[Lilbaz]

Nice. Only 2 more to go.

Although dog owners in Tottenham might be worried.

The sole reason he was signed. (joke)

Don't you mean the Seoul reason he was signed ...

 

[UbeAstard]

Bit of excitement felt but also fear of another Soldado, Lamela, Paulinho, Chiriches or Fazio.

At last......that's the no.7 shirt filled....no.9 is still free and needs filling too!!!!! With Berahino (MP's first love lol) now being a no go this window (will it ever happen now with WBA Chairman slamming us yesterday) who other than Charlie Austin in still available? However does not sound like Poch will now settle for 2nd/3rd choice from what he said yesterday.

It was beneath me...

Yep. All import signings are risks. Hence the grow your own thinking.

Just read the Sky Sports profile for him and it appears he may have to carry out 2 years national service in the South Korean national forces.

 

[Greybeard]

Good news. A consistent striker and only 23. I just hope his military service situation can be sorted out.

I can't believe this, it would make this deal stupid.

I don't remember this being an issue with Y.P.Lee

There is always an out in these kind of things.

I would think that is something levy has looked into he would not enter a deal for a player he could not use for two years
this is a real value for your money deal
in the sun there is an article by steven howard saying that basically 86million pounds wasted.
approx. 9mil for soldado .9mil for capoue.5mil for chirices 9mil soldado=32mil thus leaving a shortfall of 54mil
spurs would not sell erricson for less than 30mil
spurs would want possibly 12 mil for chadli
spurs would hope to get 12mil for lamella
therefore no loss and no profit just another biased anti spurs/levy article

 

[buckley]

sorry my mistake the second soldado should read paulino

 

[Henry Percy]

Would expect that any national service would be delayed until he has finished playing football.

I like the look of this lad, his agile, quick and has a great shot. Something worthy of our no.7. Hope he adjusts to the premier league quicker than his 50m sprint
