    Is this just a shorts channel now? Not that the video is bad or anything, but I liked the long stuff that was put out.

      Yea I don't know what's happened, I just to love tifo irl but, since it's became athletic FC it's gone downhill. We even see JJ and John less now, it's a lot athletic journalists.

    Reuben was such a highlight of the later episodes of the TIFO football podcast, it’s a shame that the channel has gone the way it has tbh. Clearly a very intelligent bloke and his humour really shone through alongside JJ bull. RIP tifo, Alex leaving was the sign of the end

      Ofc, K League is my favourite Asian league when I started playing FIFA 14. I love how the league is fully licensed while Serie B is just awful and unlicensed.

    • @SomalieDXB
      @SomalieDXB 5 месяцев назад +3

      In Turkey, he gets to play in a top 10 European League with a high chance of playing in the Champions League or Europa. If he performs there well, maybe he gets an offer from a top 5 European league. Although I doubt he has anymore motivation to compete in the highest level.
      Saudi Arabia would have a been a good fit from a financial perspective, and only if he got offers from Al Hilal, Al Ittihad and or Al Nasser. Because those clubs are big from an Asian perspective as well.
      Overall I think Seoul is a good fit for hi. If he under performs in Turkey or Saudi Arabia, the media there will be tough on him.

      k league is arguably the poorest league to have teams competing in the asian champions league. The prize money for being a k league 1 champion is less than 300k pounds. 2nd place gets 60k. Money is the last reason why a player with Jesse Lingard's credentials would join the k league.

      ​@@slothman8233You're ignoring his commercial benefits and opportunities he's getting to go there. There's definitely an ego element to it aswell where he can actually be a star again like he was in 2016/17. Wolves would've made the most sense for him or staying at West ham instead of going to Forrest
