    I already suspect a few sentences aren't right because Google translate can't cope with languages that omit pronouns but leave no other clue about the subject of the sentence.

    It's interesting though, that the agent claims Mainz's manager didn't contact Jo, which was opposite of previous reports.

    The truth is that nobody really knows what goes on behind the scenes.

    I’ll be delighted if we can get him in.

    Oh that’s good to know. He’ll be straight into the squad then, that is a relief.

    One video posted long ago had a Korean say Jo's stomach looks like a grenade. Only his aerobic fitness right now might be debatable.

    After all I've said if we sign both I'll still be excited. Everybody loves a new striker...never mind 2.

    Getting both in should make it easier for them to settle too, can't underestimate how much it would have helped the guys coming over from Japan that there was a group of them rather than coming by themselves, asia to scotland must be a massive culture shock.

    Interesting that in the 10 most replied threads in this section, there's about a 50% signing success rate...

    Not sure how we're going to offer sufficient gametime if we sign 2 STs.. especially as both Cho and Oh look like they could come in with the view of making a impact straight away.

    Kyogo's the first choice in our system and it's obviously on whoever's behind him to challenge him.. third in the pecking order is hardly to play.

    Yep you called it mate. Only question now is, is he committed enough to get the vote of confidence from the big man? I guess we'll know soon enough.

    Can't see us signing two strikers either. No chance imo. The 3rd striker would play as many games up top as Maeda is doing.

    Only way i could see us sign two is if we loaned one out instantly.

    Daizen is ineffective Uptop. 1 striker gets bad injury and you are immediately down to 1 going into the final straight plus remember as ange says he is thinking about departures 1 to 2 windows down the line.

    I agree. I mean that a 3rd striker would play like 1 game every two months. Or at least way to few to keep him happy.

    There were rumours we wanted two. Oh can also play wide.

    I think we need 3 strikers at a club our size.

    He's been effective up top for Japan- although deployed as a pure pressing FW. I'm sure he'd manage if he had to start there for us.

    I love Maeda but with the way we peg teams back in a lot of games he's not best suited to being the main striker for us most of the time, though having him as a backup option is always a good thing. I think when he's in form there's a real case for him to start up top for us in europe, against stronger teams where we'd be seeing less of the ball, then he would be doing a similar job to what he was for Japan in the WC.

    We play in the SPL with body builders as center halves. Irrelevant point.
