Park Ji-sung has silently achieved a feat that many cannot even think of - to play 200 games for
Manchester United. He completed the milestone when he was introduced as a substitute in United's
staggering comeback draw at Chelsea on last Sunday. The 30-year-old energetic midfielder who joined
Manchester United in 2005 from Dutch side PSV Eindhoven was considered a money-making venture by
many
Park Ji-Sung made his 200th appearance for United last weekend in our 3-3 draw with Chelsea.
When Park joined United for £2m in 2005 several people claimed it was just to appeal to the
Asian market in order to sell more shirts. Those people obviously didn't watch him play for PSV
against AC Milan in the Champions League a few months before we bought him.

It looked to be another long afternoon at the Emirates after Arsenal found themselves down two
to Aston Villa at halftime and on the verge of going out of the FA Cup. Relief came quickly,
however, as the Gunners scored three goals within 10 minutes to move on to the fifth round.

The subtext was Luis Suarez watching from the stand with Patrice Evra getting booed by the
Anfield crowd and all the lovely chanting between the two sets of fans about the existence of
racism. At the end, the Reds had the greater satisfaction of beating Utd, the second Manchester
club to suffer at their hands in three days.
Goals from Daniel Agger and Dirk Kuyt saw Liverpool get revenge for last season's FA Cup at Old
Trafford as they beat Manchester United 2-1 at Anfield. Elsewhere Chelsea beat QPR and Newcastle
were shocked by Brighton.
While the clash at Anfield got all the headlines this week, the biggest story took place on the
coast as Brighton boss Gus Poyet once again haunted Newcastle in the FA Cup.

Oh how it hurts to lose to one of the teams that we absolutely hate losing to; Liverpool. How the
faces got gloomy and sullen after a defeat like that. The emotions felt at this point of time

Dirk Kuyt's 88 minute strike put Liverpool into the fifth round of the FA Cup as they beat
bitter rivals Manchester United 2-1 at Anfield earlier today.
Daniel Agger gave the Reds the lead as United keeper David De Gea was again found wanting midway
through the first half before Park Ji Sung scored a deserved equaliser as United came out on top in
the possesion stakes, however possesion doesn't always win games and Dirk Kuyt's winner with just
two minutes of normal time on the clock proved that as the Kop went wild.

Liverpool 2-1 Manchester United FA Cup January 28th
With Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes going head to head with Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher, we
could've been back in 2000, although the constant booing of Patrice Evra by the Anfield faithful
belonged farther back in the dark ages.
Arsenal vice-captain Thomas Vermaelen has returned to fitness in time for this evening's massive
home fixture against Manchester United while there were also another two surprises in the Gunners'
starting line-up against the reigning champions.
The 18-year old summer signing Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain makes a memorable debut while Tomas
Rosicky also starts over Andrei Arshavin and Yossi Benayoun, who have previously been preferred to
him this season.
Things we lost in the center: The centre has always been the source of direction and control since
the beginning of ages. Isaac Newton will tell you, your movement and indeed of any other object, is
based on it's centre of gravity(which makes it clear that Park Ji-Sung's is somewhere in between
his butt cheeks).
Sir Alex Ferguson has spent 25 years as the manager of Manchester United and he has won the Premier
League 12 times, FA Cup 5 times, League Cup 4 times, the Champions League twice, 10...

Boxing Day is one of the most exciting days of the year for soccer fans as all 20 Premier League
teams take to the field over a two-day period and Monday's offerings did not disappoint.
Manchester United are now tied at the top of the Premier League title after a 5-0 destruction of
Wigan.
Manchester United took a big step towards their 20th league title by moving level on points with
leaders Manchester City, who were held 0-0 at West Brom, following a 5-0 victory against Wigan.
United, who thrashed Fulham 5-0 five days ago and Wigan suffered the same fate with the help of
Dimitar Berbatov's hat-trick (41, 58, 78).
Dimitar Berbatov delivered a late Christmas present to United fans, scoring three in a 5-0
demolition of 10-men Wigan, to send Ferguson's team joint top with Manchester City, albeit behind
on goal difference. Park Ji Sung and Antonio Valencia also got on the scoresheet, as Wigan were
furious with referee Phil Dowd, whose decision to [.

One of the bigger talking points has been the return of Ashley Young. James Milner showed class
by not celebrating at Eastlands recently, expect Ashley Young to do exactly the same today, but
preferably because he hasn't scored.
Either way, it's a tough game ahead and I suspect there will be a bigger interest in the manner
we McLeish approaches the game than any real expectation in getting much from it.
Ferguson punished for showing Palace a lack of respect
Bookies were offering odds of 12/1 on a Crystal Palace victory at Old Trafford last night, and
Sir Alex Ferguson's shock following his side's 2-1 quarter final loss showed that he expected his
Manchester United side to win as much as they did.
Manchester United midfielder Park Ji-Sung has lavished praise on manager Sir Alex Ferguson for his
ability to stay at the top of his game after 25 years in control at the Premier League giants.
"He knows past and present things about football," the former South Korea international told
the club's official website.
Park Ji-Sung has today claimed he hopes to spend the rest of his career at Manchester United
although recognises he can't take his position at the club for granted.
"When I came to United I didn't expect to be here for this long," he said. "Looking
back on my career I can't believe I've been here six or seven years.
Manchester United proved that the heavy defeat on the Derby have slowly been forgotten as after
getting a win in the Carling Cup, Sir Alex Ferguson, successfully beaten Everton at Goodison Park
thanks to Javier "Chicarito" Hernandez's goal.
Meanwhile, Chelsea gets even further from chasing the second place position after Andre Villas
Boas' team surprisingly crumbled in the hands of Arsenal despite playing at Stamford Bridge.
Former Liverpool defender Gary Gillespie has been singing the praised of Liverpool left-back Jose
Enrique, who put in another solid performance against Manchester United at Anfield last
Saturday.
Gillespie, who was himself a consistently good defender, enthused:
"I haven't seen him [Enrique] have a bad game to be honest.
Roberto Mancini had learned from the Fulham lesson and as David Platt said, Mancini freshened up
his team after the Champions League defeat at Munich. He rang in changes for the match against
Blackburn and the replacements repaid his faith in them by scoring four goals against Rovers.
Mario Balotelli, Samir Nasri and Adam Johnson together with David Silva were the difference in
another routine match for the Citizens.
Carlo Ancelotti has revealed his great admiration for Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson,
describing the Scot as a brilliant leader who knows how to delegate responsibility and develop
those around him.
Ancelotti, who was replaced by Andre Villas-Boas last summer following a trophyless season
in-charge of Chelsea, insists that he is enjoying life away from football but relishes the prospect
of managing in the same league as Fergie.
Park Ji-Sung has a reputation for showing up in the big games, scoring important goals against
tough opposition.
Last season, he scored the winning goal against Chelsea in the Champions League quarter-final,
moments after Didier Drogba had brought the opposition level.
However, Park believes it is his goal from the season before against Liverpool, where United
came back from 1-0 down to win 2-1, which is his best for the club.
Did you read that title in the voice of a Southern Belle high on speed? If so, then
congratulations, dear reader!
After our soul-crushing defeat to Manchester United last Sunday, it was only natural- and
expected- that Arsene Wenger and the Club finally realize that intensive investment in our
first-team squad beyond just Park Chu-Young was necessary, and we really needed more reinforcements
in our defense.
Defending champions Manchester United pummeled a depleted Arsenal by a score of 8-2 at Old Trafford
on Sunday in English Premier League action. Wayne Rooney (3), Danny Welbeck, Ashley Young (2), Nani
and Park Ji-sung scored for United in what was their best goal output since 1999. Theo Walcott and
Robin van Persie salvaged a [.

Manchester United thrashed Arsenal 8-2 at Old Trafford and Edin Džeko scored four as Manchester
City beat Spurs 5-1 at White Hart Lane.
Manchester City were impressive in the early kick-off as Edin Dzeko scored four times as he and
debutant Samir Nasri helped Manchester City put Tottenham Hotspur to the sword with a ruthless
display of attacking football.

Transfer Rumors: Arsenal To Sign South Korea Skipper - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Since signing from PSV Eindhoven in the summer of 2005, Park Ji-Sung has proven
to be a great bargain for Manchester United. Unheralded as he may be in comparison to some of his
teammates, Park has been an integral part of United's success over the last several seasons and is
almost always one of the first names Sir Alex Ferguson pencils in on the teamsheet for crucial
clashes.
Manchester United's former South Korean captain Park Ji Sung (30) has extended his
contract by another year which will see him contracted to the club until 2013.
Park who quit international football last season has scored 24 goals in 177 appearances for
the Red Devils including the winner against both Arsenal and Chelsea last season.
Park Ji-Sung has put an end to any rumours linking him with a move away from the club after
signing a new two year deal.
"I have enjoyed every minute of my time at United," said Park. "I'm delighted to be
part of the club during this latest stage in its history with another exciting young team being
built.
Cesc Fabregas is returning to Barcelona. Really.
The long-awaited transfer of Fabregas from Arsenal to Barcelona is on the verge of completion,
according to various reports in both England and Spain, although the signing is not official as of
yet.
Fabregas and Samir Nasri were left off the roster for Arsenal's Premier League opener this
weekend against Newcastle, lending more credence to the reports that both players are set to sign
elsewhere.

Chelsea have also been strengthened by an injection of youth while Sergio Agüero's creativity
will be vital if Manchester City are to offer a title challenge Manchester United Sir Alex Ferguson
has the gift of moving on ageing players at the right time, and replacing seamlessly.
