@younggungblog Chu-Young is South Korea's captain. Can play on either flank or up front. Offers reliable back up at a good price. Win:Win.

Fee confirmed, medical completed, sorting out player terms. Fastest bit of business we've done in years.

He also adds to our collection of national team captains.

I know theres fews days left but Wenger is driving me crazy, cba with last day drama...

No football score spoilers on here please. If you want to post something about it, give a vague description of what it is about and then put the spoiler in spoiler tags. Thanks.

Look, let's be optimistic about this guy. Maybe he will fail the medical.

[Master Splinter]

We need to get rid of this guy before the window closes.

Park signing could be because Campbell didn't get work permit.

And if Monaco are "baffled" about Young signing for us, then doesn't that suggest something dodgy is going on? Surely ourselves and Monaco need to agree on a fee first? I also hope the deal breaks down to be honest, and Wenger realises that he needs to stop fucking about in the bargain basement and go for a real quality striker who can actually provide competition for RVP, and when stepping in for him when he gets injured, can actually do atleast as good as job as him (hopefully better)

which I am sure will give you another excuse to jump on your moral high horse!

If this is the only signing we make until the end of the window then yeah, it's bullshit and something big needs to change at the top, as I said I doubt this guy was at the top of our list but if we think he can do a job and he's cheap, why not sign him?

Yep, I'm with you on this. I'm hoping that Park Chu Young is the lowest profile of the 3 signings Arsene plans to make. I won't lie, I'm not comfortable with our attacking options outside of RVP but Park Chu Young should be given a chance.

From the little i've seen of him he's looked fairly good, mobile, technically very good, not bad in the air either.

Hopefully the CB & CM signings we all crave are Cahill and M'Vila.

Park signing could be because Campbell didn't get work permit.

Bit of a stereotype there I think. Koreans are hard workers whereas there's no point giving a Costa Rican a work permit. Very racist of you really. Unpleasant. I'm offended.
