...would he be anywhere near this United side?
No way! Downing can at least cross the ball.If he was English...he would remind me of Stewart Downing
I think you are all a bit harsh on park , he is a lot better than you lot are making out.No way! Downing can at least cross the ball.

Agree, Downing's a **** and only looks good in a very poor Boro side.I think you are all a bit harsh on park , he is a lot better than you lot are making out.
by the time this thread is over you will have him down as a championship player , leave the lad alone , i would not swap him for downing no way
Why does that mean he's a better player?Hmmmm...easy said, atleast park gets to play for Man utd! :whistling:
Where did i say he's a better player??Why does that mean he's a better player?
O' Shea is better than Gerrard, didn't you know?
Fair enough.Where did i say he's a better player??
All i said is he reminded me of Downing if he was an english player because as much as they are good, they just arent good enough but yet, park being park, he has the advantage of playing for man utd.
Actually incorrect. I read somewhere that Gerrard is the best player to have played in every position for his club.In terms of versatility yes..
I'm not talking about his value, as I too believe that English players are inflated.i really believe that if park was English he would be worth double his value at the moment id rate him at maybe about 5 million so if he was English id rate him at 10 million i think its almost a fact that(most) English players are over rated for me an example of this would be i believe that Vidic makes Rio look like a better player as he looks kind of shaky when playing with Evans but when Vida plays with Evans were more solid! i also think that Carvalho makes John Terry look a better player too!
so for me English Park>S.Koren Park
Reading and seeing is two different thing surely??Fair enough.

TBH i don't think if he came through our ranks here he would have made it as i don't think he would have been good enough to come through as we don't produce that many workers IMO! but i believe say he came through boro's youth academy i think we wouldn't have went for him as i think it was on the back of psv's impressive champions league run that we bought him and we wouldn't have got to see him in that light!I'm not talking about his value, as I too believe that English players are inflated.
The point I was making is, is that if he was an English headless chicken, would he be near the team or would he been transferred (let's consider him being a youth team product)? I think a major reason why he is part of the squad is because of his marketing puposes in Asia.
(I'm not saying he's shit and deserves to get rid, because he is very consistent and is an honest player and puts in a good shift when needed)
Once again this is a very harsh post he has had some great games for us , as for asian factor that was spot on for dong but not for park.Im not sure,I honestly doubt that he would have even been know had it not been for the Asian factor.We all know of the marketing side to Park Ji and the money he helps generate.Hes a decent worker but as far as having many strengths,his only one seems to be the work rate.He can be a menace,but when he has done all the hard work to win a ball back,he has no distribution skills so it fails.
talkin about Heskey were ya?i bet you cant give me a reason why he plays though:laugh::rofl:
i was just about to quote myself,beat me to it:laugh:talkin about Heskey were ya?
:whistling:
:laugh: and now he is going off injuredthat was a flipping sitter
so have i.....15mins ago:laugh:To be fair, I've seen them missed before.
If he was English he'd probably get more credit for what he does for us.
A winger's job is to attack and create chances, particulary by crossing. Defensive work comes second.Basically this.
Park is a wonderful player, so important to the team. People criticise him for his attacking side, but that isn't what he'a about. He's so much more, something some people do not understand.
and what?A winger's job is to attack and create chances, particulary by crossing. Defensive work comes second.
Same with a full back. A full back's job is to defend, and to defend well. Attacking comes second.
