Park Ji-Sung

Kuyt is a striker, why you comparing him to Park?

But i would never pick Kuyt ahead of Park if i wanted someone to play RW.

Kuyt plays on the right for the Dutch international team, and for Liverpool, the most successful side in English football history. He is not a winger in the traditional sense but neither is Park, I didn't ask who you would pick. I could have guessed for myself.

He's first choice for United because Nani is shit.

He was first choice before we even signed Nani but he picked up a serious knee injury which meant he was out for 9 months.

And you had to play Nani?

I doubt it, we just signed Riera and he's doing ok, plus Babel.

Why?

Babel isnt a left winger. He's a gibbon you throw onto the pitch for our amusement.

I'm not sure that's true. He's had some good games on the left, although it's probably not his best position, I don't think we'll be signing another left winger.

Middlesbrough are probably going to be relegated this season.

Once relegated we will be in the market for a gibbon. Do you think you'd sell?

your rat-faced manager will fill the side with Steve Gibbson's inbred ginger nephews, there'll be no room for a player like Babel.

There is always room for a gibbon.

Park plays as a winger in a 4-4-2. Not sure about Kuyt.

I don't think he's underrated at all. We can talk about running and work rate and effort all day long, but at the end of the day, how many goals has he actually scored or directly assisted? Can't remember the last one tbh. Useful as a tactical option when you want a player that can assist others to do their job, but not exactly one to bring on as a sub to change games. A player who would stand out at a small club (I think he'd be like Tuncay at Boro), but blends in and isn't noticed much at a big club.

Direct assists and goals are not a measure else Hleb will probably end up lower then most attacking mids, he is a very good player no doubt.

Hleb is a very good player. Park is ok.

Hleb is definitely better but Park is not that bad, Hleb doesnt do too much assists or scores that many goal either by the way.

I'm not evaluating how good or bad Park is, but instead whether he's underrated. Considering he doesn't contribute anything concrete in an attacking sense, I think he's rated just right - a hard working decent but nothing special player.

Far better than Kuyt, and I'd have him at WHL in a heartbeat.

Seriously underrated as a player because of his race. Most teams would be lucky to have him.

He's actually similar to Kuyt in that their work rate and tactical discipline make them very useful in big games, but both are not good enough to be regular starters(week in week out) for a top 4 club.

Who should Manchester United & Liverpool play instead of Park and Kuyt week in and week out? both may not be ‘world stars’ but have been integral to their sides making up the top 2 so far this season, in fact I believe Kuyt has failed to start 1 game in the league this season.

You should ask Benitez and Ferguson who should start in place of those two, but what I do know is they aren't good enough to be regulars for a top 4 side.

But there teams are 1 and 2nd, Proff.

We were leading for most of last season with Eboue as our RW, did that make him good enough for that position?

If you end up with that position after the season is finished then yes.

What would Arsenal know about being a top four side?

What does Southampton know about being a Premiership side?

My point is that Agooner has cheered on virtually every moment of Wenger's slow ruin of your club over the last few years, which has turned you from unbeaten champions to a side who may not even finish 5th.

So he'd know fuck all about the requirements of top four sides. Essentially, I mistyped.

Mistyper.

What's so fucking funny you bread-headed buffoon?

You're a mistyper, you are.

And you're a chuff-faced chaffinch but you don't hear me banging on about it.

You'd mistype it if you tried to

I'll mistype you in a minute...
