Not happy to see this...

[lytic]

Browsing throught the U20 South Korean team and I see this:

Hong-Tae Nam
297 000 US$, 18 years, passable form
Has wretched experience and poor leadership abilities
Belonging to fumpen


I did look at his players and Nam does have a number on his team... but for Nam to end up on the biggest day trader ever's team is quite disheartening... I already sent him an HT mail stating that if he isn't being trained he won't play.
The thing is... Nam is the #1 or #2 middie on the team (depends on form).

As for other things on the SK team... we have both keepers for sale. If anyone is a keeper trainer, the back up is set at a good value. He's currently going for $2k. He may never get play time, but if an injury occurs, he's the primary backup right now.

>he is going to get training .. im planing on training him for several seasons... and i hope he plays every game for the U20 South Korean team : )...


So I guess we'll see how this works out. I'm still a bit leary about it.

Well, on the bright side, lord knows he can afford an excellent coach. :)

I heard fumpen gave up the day trading due to the new 6.5 rules.

If that doesn't bother you, I'm more than willing to bid on him at that price.

is the backup still for sale? if he is, what's his name and number?

yeah- and that is the problem with overpaying for a U-20 player of this caliber, 2 teams could pull 17 year old solids next week and this player will be long forgotten....its a risk to buy and train this guy, but the experience bonous of being a Nat Team player is worth it (if i trained keepers, and had a spot open)

[Superman=#54]

I would train him if I had the money to. To bad I could have got him up to passable by the end of this season.

[lytic]

I'd rather have a solid or excellent coach training him.

and very valid point... he is very high risk!

[Mr. Wednesday]

No worries... figured you might, that was why I asked.

I'll let someone with a stronger training program take care of him.

[bigjdotcom01]

I've got a solid coach and was thinking of going back to Keeper training for the rest of this season.
