[Archived] Korean International Set For Rovers Trial

[Korean John]

Don't know if this deserves a new topic or not...

But it is all over the Korean media that 20 year-old midfielder Gu Ja Cheol has been offered a trial with the Rovers.

He is currently in South Africa with the national team and will head to Blackburn later in the month.

The player, his club and national team coach have all confirmed it.

And this is a picture of him talking about "Blackburn's Lovecall"

[alexanders]

Can you tell us more about the guy?

Is he any good? What position? Is he going to play for the Koreans in the coming world cup? What price bracket?

[Mr. E]

The usual questions would be "well if he's any good why haven't a bigger club come in for him?", but at least we're looking in the right direction.

Maybe useful, cant understand him though!!

How far can he kick the ball???

[Korean John]

He's a box-to-box midfielder and highly-rated. Don't know if he's ready for a move overseas though.

Not sure how he'll get a work permit as he's only played a couple of games for the national team though he'll be playing a few more over the next few weeks. He could go to the World Cup but won't be in the starting eleven.

Korea have a lot of good young players and he is one of the most promising and one for the future.

His agent says that he will go to Blackburn after Korea play Finland on January 18.

[Hughesy]

What type of midfielder is he - Winger, attacking midfielder, defensive?

Maybe help us to get a few extra fans over there too? And some new media interest & possible sponsors?!

[bob fleming]

Having read that article he can forget it. Bang out of order.

Which article? Can you read Korean?

[S15]

Wooooooooooosh.

[ultrablue]

Interesting one this - seems like a similar deal to N'Zonzi. He is a young midfielder who plays for a pretty mediocre club team, so would jump at the chance to come to the premiership. Get him in and bulk him up and he might just be quality in a few years.

As for what he says in the article, it's fairly standard footballer talk. Apoligies to Korean John as I'm sure he'd do a better job of this but here goes.

"After 2 years under contract at Jeju United (his club) it's been a great experience. I'd like to thank them for giving me the opportunity to go" "Playing in the Premier League is a dream of mine. I hope I will succeed."

[Hughesy]

The blokes a nut-job - Has a plan for his enemies & he seems like he may have an illness (an airborne imbalance due to suffering from poor scoring anti-reversal functioning)

[rovgers]

I just used google toolbar to translate the article and it came up with this interesting quote from him

"l enough to envy the GUJARATI chaenggyeobo EPL games this season, but his head looked white enough to be excited."

Must be an korean saying!

[Craigman]

News of the world

[Hughesy]

I dont trust him!!

[ultrablue]

Sorry to get all technical, but I'm trying to learn the flippin language!

Thats the problem with Korean - lots and lots of synonyms.

Ja Iron is the translation of his name. Cheol = Iron,

Mouth only test is actually "to go on trial".

Jeuo-8, through a press release last December 21, Blackburn this ja iron talks about a doctor and his enemies actively support plan.

Actually means "Blackburn confimed their intentions in a press release on December 21st last year." The word for doctor and intention are the same

[Hughesy]

Thankfully my head is still white enough, thus I remain excited.

[broadsword]
