Nope can't be us.
It said mid-table...not last place

i read he wanted DP money but noone wants to pay it. Curious to see what hes still capable of and whether we put a bid in.

[ensco]

The MLS city with the largest Korean population (by far) is Los Angeles. That's where he should go.

[Jack]

Why does it always have to be about the ethnic community?

What about the fact that he's a damn good player?

I guess Schelotto should go to Miami because they have the most Argentines?

[Pryu]

Lot's of Koreans in New York and Chicago.
I'm Korean,...and I don't want him here in Toronto. He's old news.

[SLBuu]

did anyone read that his former team 'Perugia' FIRED him after he scored against Italy in the WC.........

That is so PATHETIC!!!!

[Yohan]

Ah yes. The 'Lord of the Ring'.

I dont think he's the answer we're looking for. Doesn't score often, has lost a few steps due to age. He does score clutch goals and like most SK players, will play his heart out. He plays more as an attacking midfielder, playing just behind the lead striker. Can create a little, but IMO nowhere near Guevara level

Who the hell gave him the nick name 'Asia's Beckham'?

I think he's worth a trial, but def no DP material

nah, its usually to settle a player should they come from a place thats unlike the one they are headed to but in some cases they want to get away and be a nobody on the street. I think the dude would do fine here in TO to be hoenst we have a korean community that could prob provide to his needs should he have any and would prob otherwise leave him alone (ie not mob him in the streets)

Isn't Nakamura holding the Asian-Beckham crown?

Old News BLOOOOOOOOOO really old LOL. Like I heard about it like the day that it happened thats how old it is LOL.

Yep, though he's likely to go back to Japan at the end of the season.

Which is pretty weird considering he was a big advocate for foreign players. He even wanted to have a woman on the team. He apologized after and the dude was offered a contract again.

I am pretty sure that Toronto has more! :D

[SLBuu]

APOLOGIZED FOR WHAT!!!!!! Scoring a goal for his country?

i would tell them to fuck right off and go suck a donkey dick if i was in his shoes.

LMAO! that is ridiculous. lol

[Keegan]

If Guevara or Marshall scored against Canada this cycle I would have expected nothing less than for their contracts to be terminated immediately.......

Jokes of course haha

Nakata is long gone now. Retired pretty young but was all hype no quality. Definitely Asia's Beckham. Only success he found was at Perugia, the same team Ahn played for.

[SLBuu]

Perugia's president apologized.

AH! OKAY!

That makes more sense.
