I agree. I went to all Arsenal Carling Cup games last season and every game I saw, he did put a shift in and he score a neat little curler vs Bolton. I'd actually be happy for him to stay one more year iif he plays like he has been during the Olympics and performs consistently. I mean, the dude needs to play. We cannot base our opinion of him on a run of games which tally to SIX.

Park's been stripped of the number 9 and given number 30.

Not sure if it means anything in relation to a transfer thought it probably might.

Means the Number 9 shirt is still cursed and if we are lucky we will see him on the bench in the Cattle Cup, along with myself. :lol:

Of course it was for shirt sales, it coincided with our new tours of Asia pre season. It has actually cost us a fair bit - £2m transfer fee and wages of I would guess around 30k a week? Not exactly cheap. and quite how never playing the guy is supposed to make us popular in the far east??

Maybe we will start holding Starcraft II tournaments then...

The sad thing is, this guy may end up getting a few games for us this season should injuries/suspensions hit us.

He was a Gazidis signing as were nearly all that came in on he last day 2 years ago as wenger had thrown his dummy out of the pram and went off the switzerland on the last day .

He doesn't even train with us and wasn't on the squad list a few weeks ago ,hes been added back in with a different number . Whether that will change like bendtner now the windows closed im not sure .

To be fair, does he deserve to be in the team less than Bendtner, I haven't read the whole thread but as far as I know he hasn't thrown a strop or not on mega money, he had the whole national service thing hanging over him before but I think this is sorted, as South Korean international with over 60 caps can he be that bad

Hmm, fair point, I remember in about June when the fixtures came out, joking to one of my mates that we'd sign no-one and we end up playing at Old Trafford (the injury crisis should be in full sway by then) that we'd end up starting with Bendtner and Park up front, I should change my fucking name to Nostradamus

Wan*er was very happy with his goal. Not sure what went wrong later between him and club. He looks fine in front of the goal on tube.

Can't think of anybody that's looked less like a professional footballer play for us.
