Cho Gue-sung

They’re just trying to be uber Tims.

It’s really ironic, as the Green Brigade has a giant anti-Lawwell flag at home games. They must be trolls too.

 

Shut up ya *

 

Nobody is shutting down cristicism of Lawwell, we're telling you to * up dragging him into the conversation now for no reason, when he has no influence on what's happening.

He * up plenty when he was CEO. Lennon should have only been a short term appointment. He's not CEO now. He's not involved in our transfer negotiations. How many times does it need to be said?

 

Dunces. Dunces everywhere.

 

And I'm telling you to * up right back. Who do you * think you are, Dermot Desmond or something? You're acting like you're on the * board.

 

* going on here

 

And whit you on about asking why people are draggin this up now? Cause this the the first deal we're trying to get over the line since the * was appointed chairman.

 

Wait a minute. Just figured it out. You're not on the board - you just install heated driveways.

 

If he does sign he's sure to be the star of the cho...

 

I didn’t want Lawwell back. We can wait and see how much he will be involved.

But I don’t think anyone can speak with authority and say Lawwell will definitely not be involved in our transfer negotiations, or any other aspect of the club.

How does it help to make bold statements like that with such certainty? Unless you’re close to Lawwell or part of the executive.

 

@McGrory1888 you heard anything? Speaking to guy this morning said big mick flew down London yesterday to meet with park ji sung and Cho British agent who Park has recommended

 

McKay?

 

If it’s true there’s a release clause in JJ’s contract, get big Dom back out the door again

National soccer team striker Cho Kyu-seong (25, Jeonbuk Hyundai) recently received an official offer from Germany’s Bundesliga FSV Mainz 05. It's not just a matter of interest. It has been confirmed that an official offer, including a specific ransom price and options, has been delivered to K-League 1 (Part 1) Jeonbuk <Sports Donga 7th Exclusive Report>.


It is known that Mainz delivered Jeonbuk an amount exceeding the 2.2 million pounds (approximately 3.35 billion won) set by Celtic FC (Scotland), which is also interested in signing Cho Kyu-sung. The first offer from Mainz arrived around Christmas last year and has already been discussed several times. While Park Ji-sung, technical director of Jeonbuk, is currently staying in London, England, and is in charge of negotiations with Mainz, the 'final negotiation table' is expected to be set up soon.




Cho Kyu-sung is a life-changing case in Qatar. He was almost unknown until the World Cup, but he caught the attention of numerous scouts who visited Qatar with multiple goals in the second group match against Ghana (2-3 Korea loss). He was the first player to score multiple goals in a single World Cup match in Korean soccer history. In particular, the second header goal scored with a much higher RBI than Ghana's defense was strong enough to be selected as the 'Best Goal' by the International Football Federation (FIFA).


It was around this time that Mainz paid attention to Cho Kyu-sung. Other clubs also salivated. Celtic, Stade Rennes (France), Anderlecht (Belgium), Fenerbahce (Turkey), and even Hungary and US teams showed interest.


Mainz was more specific than these. At the beginning of last month, when the Qatar World Cup was in full swing, the club's ransom was exposed through foreign media, so much effort was put into recruiting Cho Kyu-seong, and at the winter transfer market opened on the 1st, he was selected as a candidate for 'reinforcement first' and then contacted Jeonbuk.



Mainz, which is undergoing battery training in Spain ahead of the second half of the Bundesliga race in the 2022-2023 season, which will start with an expedition to Stuttgart on the 21st (Korean time), needs reinforcement of the attacking team. Midfielder Lee Jae-seong (31), a senior in the national team of Cho Kyu-seong, has poor offensive power to the extent that he is tied for third in the team’s scoring rankings (two goals), and three out of five strikers in the first team are not in normal condition due to major or minor injuries.


In particular, the absence of Karim Onisiwo (Austria), who is recording the most goals (4 goals), is painful. Mainz coach Bo Svensson said in an interview with German media during his training in Spain that he was "requested to sign a striker," and the target was Cho Kyu-sung.


Mainz has a steady relationship with Korean football. Following Cha Doo-ri (FC Seoul Youth Enhancement Office), Koo Ja-cheol (Jeju United), Park Joo-ho (Suwon FC), and Ji Dong-won (Seoul), Lee Jae-seong is now the main player. In addition to decent skills, the image of Korean players who have sincerity and affinity is quite good. Such a friendly atmosphere can be a great driving force for Cho Kyu-seong, who hopes to transfer to Mainz.

 

Soooooo Mainz still in for him then aye?

 

Just * off, Mainz

 

I presume you meant Nicholson, in which case yes.

Some progress made over the weekend (or on Friday) with structure of deal. Positive talks with agent and “more of less” everything agreed. It’s really just a waiting game, but as I’ve said before I’d be very, very surprised if we don’t sign him this month.

 

Aye sorry dom is a * cause I was talking about him in the JJ thread!

 

Meant to say Nicholson

 

So we are in Souza territory lol
