With Manchester United being the talk of the transfer market at the moment, with speculation over players coming in and out almost every day, Manchester United must not forget a gem they have in their ranks – Park Ji Sung. Park Ji Sung is a firm fans favourite, a player that plays for the jersey. Park is a player for the big games and have proven his worth to Manchester United since his move from PSV in 2005. With Antonio Valencia out until the new year, is it time for Sir Alex Ferguson to place more faith in Park Ji Sung.
Park netted only his second goal of the season in Manchester United’s 3-2 Carling Cup win over Wolves on Tuesday. Speaking to Sky Sports, Park Ji-sung spoke of Manchester United’s win.
“The win (over Wolves) was a satisfactory result and I am happy with my performance. “My recent form hasn’t been that good so it’s good to see progress.”
Park Ji Sung offers Manchester United a great deal. His attitude and fitness are second to none in the squad. Park has an engine and never stops working for the team. He is a selfless individual who put his team before individual goals and accolades. The midfielder has proven himself a class act in his attitude at Old Trafford. He accepts his managers decisions – without fuss nor drama. There have been times where Park has undeservedly been dropped but he has got on with it and has come off the bench and shown his talent on the pitch – not the media room. This is why he is a cult hero at Old Trafford. Park Ji Sung offers nothing less that 100% for his club. Park is clearly very proud to play for a club like Manchester United and its great to see humility from a professional footballer today.
The problem is do Manchester United fans truly believe that Park can ever offer Manchester United more than a consistent, reliable performance. Park has many top class attributes but will he ever be a match winner on a consistent basis for Manchester United. Where Nani, and to a certain degree Valencia have blown hot and cold at Old Trafford, they have produced magic to either set up winners or score them, themselves. Is this ultimately Park’s downfall?Does he have enough about him to command a regular place in the United first team. Most fans would agree that Park Ji-Sung should score more goals. He gets into some very good positions but a combination of either a lack of ability in front of goal or lack of composure has let the South Korean captain down at times.
Manchester United’s destruction of Arsenal in the 2009 Champions League semi final has been Park’s finest game for Manchester United. Park scored the opening goal that night and imposed his style on the game. His link up play with Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo was impressive and he was given glowing praise from Arsene Wenger. Wenger after the game spoke to Sky Sports about Park Ji-sung.
“When you play against him, he’s a very hard working player who sacrifices for the team but as well has good skill and scores important goals, unfortunately, against us. I’m convinced by his quality. He has a top level attitude.”
Park’s work ethic and commitment to the game doesn’t go unnoticed outside of Old Trafford – and that is good too see. There has been speculation that Park could be a spare part in a deal for Tottenham’s Gareth Bale in the summer. It seems highly unlikely that Manchester United would sell Park at the current time. Commercially, Park is too important to Manchester United, more importantly you can’t put a price on his attitude. Youngsters at Old Trafford would do well to learn from Park Ji Sung
Park Ji Sung is a very talented footballer and is looking to reinvent his Manchester United career in a new central role. Park’s form along with Manchester United’s needs to improve. For now, Park has the abilities to replace Antonio Valencia. The South Korean has an ideal opportunity to cement his place in the team. If he can do this, he could end his career at Old Trafford. It is time for Park to stand up and show the Premiership his true qualities.
