All these crap puns and this gets ignored? Good work fella.
Lee Kang-In
- Thread starter UnitedSofa
- Start date
I think it was an underrated effort.
But can he shuffle?
Yeah, Young Lee Sharp our first east Asian player
Dunno what to make of this link, even though I like this player.
Kang-in is nifty and aesthetically pleasing, but not decisive enough to be a difference-making No. 10 in our scheme, at least for the time being.
In a 3—4—2—1, The No. 10s have to be hyper-productive in terms of goal-scoring and/or goal-creation, to unburden and unleash the center forward.
As an example, last season, Wirtz had 38 goals + assists for Bayer Leverkusen, Lookman had 27 goals + assists for Atalanta, Pote had 35 goals + assists for Sporting CP.
Feels like a Brandt, when now more than ever, we need someone along the lines of a Salah, Palmer, or even Mbeumo.
Then again, he is still relatively young; maybe he will become more decisive in the years to come.

Good player?
Exciting! We need some qualeety players, our season is truly kangin by a thread.
PSG signed him 6 months ago for €22m, doubt they'd sell him now. Funny we seemingly weren't interested when he was available for cheap though, classic United.
They signed him in 2023.
He might just add to our problems of leekang our tactics ! Do not want.
He’s fantastic in Mortal Kombat.
Feels a bit Mount-ish with the only difference being that we actually have 2 potential positions to play him in instead of one. But ultimately more of a sideways move than a clearly improving one. Will our squad be better if we added him into the mix? Yeah. Is he going to make a big difference? Not as likely.
Doesn't look realistic anyway, I think he's well liked at PSG and I'm not sure why they're going to be willing to let him go (unlike Ugarte)... and it's hard to tempt PSG with money alone (and he's probably not worth the money that it's going to cost us for them to even begin thinking about selling him).
Jesus time flies...
Wouldn’t be surprised by this given Amorims statement about preferring a left foot red attacker in the right 10 role and Amad the only suitable player there
At the right price, count me in.
Who's better, him or Rodrigo Mora?
Hopefully better than Lee Martin at least
It’s romanized Shapu in Japanese. But I guess he’s from Taiwan now.
Not in many systems, but he's born to play the RAM role in Amorim's system. We already have Diallo there but they are different and Diallo might even suit the RWB role better.
As long as he has two legs, he's better than what we have.
He would have been good to get from Mallorca for a modest fee, but doesn't seem like an obvious fit anywhere.
It's the role I see for him but we can't state that he is born for any role. Unfortunately for him, he hasn't been in a position to give certainties about his best role. Also as @Invictus stated, at the moment he isn't decisive enough in that AM role he would have to evolve mentally which isn't a given.
Probably him. Mora is 37 nowadays.
I would take him in a heartbeat. Especially for £30mil.
He's 17 and just debuted for Porto, scored 2 goals in matches and 1 assist. He reminds me of David Silva.
Looks weak. Sign Shang Tsung instead.
Is it Lee Kang-In or Kang-In Lee? They seem to have both in South Korea, Ji Sung Park/Park Ji Sung, Son Heung-Min/Heung Min Son, etc.
He is a tidy player but that's it, isn't really that exciting a player. Plus don't think he is quick enough for the league.
I like him. He's aesthetically pleasing to watch, technically very sound. Wonder if he has enough athleticism to play as a RAM though. If he does come, we maybe able to move Amad back to RWB.
He's better than this, to say he isn't dynamic is wrong he has more than enough pace to play the no10 role, very creative player and has a wand of a left peg. He would be a very good player for us for years. We need technically sound players like him in the squad, players who can hold the ball, make plays and execute. He would be a solid signing and affordable too.
Mentally he is quite strong. Also getting a bit unfairly treated by Luis Enrique atm as he got benched frequently after games where he shined. He still delivers when getting played. Also two years ago he had big physicality issues but it was impressive to see how he handled that. People said he can't play on the wings or as a CM but he showed he can do both. He's not a player you'd expect 20 goals, but with a CF like Gyokeres or Osimhen, he would shine with assists. He's great at set pieces, too.
Yes.
Kang-In is the first name and Lee is the surname. They seem to write the surname first.
That's not the point. I'm talking about his decisiveness, some players are helpers, others are creators. Today Lee Kang-In is the former and in our system we need the latter, in order for him to be a good fit he would have to change his mindset and become more ambitious in the final third. And while it's possible for a 23 years old player to evolve, it's not a given.
- Initial bit = patronymic or family name (almost always monosyllabic), and following bit = given name (typically, but not always, consisting of two syllables denoting the generational name and the actual individual name).
- In the most prevelant convention, given names are hyphenated but not fully capitalized to demarcate the syllables in English translations/approximations. Lee (patronymic name) Kang-in (hyphenated given name), Park (patronymic name) Ji-sung (hyphenated given name), Ban (patronymic name) Ki-moon (hyphenated given name) et cetera.
- In another, not-as-prevelant, convention, given names are separated and fully capitalized to demarcate the syllables in English translations/approximations. Yoon (patronymic name) Suk Yeol (seperated and fully capitalized given name), Kim (patronymic name) Jong Un (seperated and fully capitalized given name) et cetera.
- Among folk striving to seem more “westernized” or among people of Korean extraction living abroad, it's also not uncommon to come across the given name first and patronymic name last model or a modification/simplification of given names. Cho (patronymic name) Yo-Han (hyphenated given name) becomes John Cho (modified/simplified given name) Cho (patronymic name), Moon (patronymic name) Sun-myung (hyphenated given name) becomes Sun Myung (seperated and capitalized given name) Moon (patronymic name), Kim (patronymic name) Yeon-a (hyphenated given name) becomes Yuna (modified/simplified given name) Kim (patronymic name) et cetera.
We need him to strike up a lethal partnership with Chido Obi and it's one of the greatest football chants of all time!
How credible is the source? It’s interesting that PSG are going for Kvaratskhelia as his replacement potentially
It wouldn't be his replacement per say, they wanted Kvaratshkhelia this summer to replace Mbappé but couldn't find an agreement with Napoli.
They should get Rashford as his replacement
