He's a f,ucking beaut Wenger. Oh my God!!!!!!! I don't believe he actually has the audacity to sing some unknown piece of c,rap just to say he signed somebody and keep the AKBs on board.
Wenger you absolute SCUMBA,G!!!!!! GO NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A man does what he must - in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures - and that is the basis of all human morality.

Is he any good? He's hardly the stellar name I was looking for.
Heaven forbid with 25652 billions pounds in the bank we should buy a fking striker with pedigree.

I think it's will be a good move to capture S.Korean fanbase, Ryo will be helpful for Japanese fanbase..
Anyway, it may not even be true. He may even be very good.
Best reserve judegement I suppose until:
a) We've signed him
b) We've seen him play
Who the fk is he again???

Looking at his wiki is grim reading too showed lots of promise as a kid but hasnt really d fulfilled it.the only good thing is he scored 12 goals in 33 games last year in a team that got relegated but hardly setting the world alight is it
from tw@tter
Lille president Seydoux on Park: "We are stunned by this unacceptable behavior in terms of human qualities."
Lille Pres. Michel Seydoux: "Park went to England, apparently to Arsenal. We are stunned by this unacceptable behaviour."
Apparently the Lille president went to meet Park after his medical, only to find his hotel room empty. Lille suspect he's off to Arsenal.
Park Chu-Young was ready to have Lille medical this morning, but unknown to Lille officials he's left France to fly to London for #AFC talks
Some reports that Arsenal have gazumped Lille for Korean striker Park Chu-Young
IF TRUE - LOL

I'm sure he'd be a fine signing for Everton, Sunderland or West fking Brom.
Only wenger could do this!
Not exactly the marquee singing i had hoped for FFS.I am sure Cahill,Kaka and Sneijder are already packed and begging to get to the Emirates now.
he is bendtners replacement in the squad

Looks like the emirates won't be the garden of Eden than.
looks good on that youtube clip - all sorts of goals, right foot, left foot, headers, penalites and freekicks
Captain of his country and scored a couple at the world cup

saw it as the same, probably better than Bendtner.
looks like a useful squad player
nothing at all wrong with that
if he works half as hard as ManPoos park, then he could be a decent addition

He was just chosen as national team captain.
If nothing else, he can add leadership qualities to the team ... Thereby marking a huge improvement over bendtner on that score.
Seems like a useful addition ... and a cheap one, too!
His stats are sh*t and was a target for Fulham, say no more.
A cheap waste of time who will add no more than Bendtner.

I like that we're playing it dirty like Man C and Barca. Big fish eat small fish! 
This is his entry for his career 2011 in wiki:
"

On August 27, 2011, Park came to my place and hit some dank chronic. "
Nice.

If he makes a good impact player like Park at United, I'll take him. But I do hope Wenger makes at least two quality signings before the window closes.
This is crazy. Why dies he have to sign playersnobody has hears of all the times. Are there no good strikers available that are recognised European top quality? There's probably a reaso nobody has heard of this guy, he doesn't warrant the medias attention.
All I can say is sender had better turn him into a megastar.

When we signed Adebayor from Monaco people were like "wtf we want Baptista!" So I'll reserve judgement till he plays and settles
Adebayor also had very dismal stats, yet he netted 30 goals in his second full season with us.
Stats are irrelevant.
Stats are irrelevant.
They're not really though, are they? They give you an indication of who's best. Like the team with the most points over a 38 game period are the champs. That is a stat.
Good signing by Arsene
Just like Chamakh was last season

I think its pretty obvious what I meant.
It was obvious and of course players can start scoring sh.itloads of goals....but they usually don't.
No mention of this on SSN
- until Wenger moves on, they'll always be the also-rans in the major competitions. A club in elite purgatory. Always good enough to make it to the big race, never fast or smart enough to push over the finish line in first place. That's all about the manager. Until he changes, Arsenal fans will continue to celebrate glorious failure.

Lets trust Wenger's judgement. Today i watched mata and he turned the game around for chelski, now thats a player chelski signed only because they heard wenger was willing to pay 17m on him. Also, i watched lukaku, a player wenger wasnt interested in at all, and he isnt much better than JET in my opinion but he's been bought for a ludicrous amount of money. The other day some idiot pundits were condemning gervinho simply cos they don't know him. Now, its clearly wenger knows best and the media knows f.CkAll.

No mate. The reason they payed £17m for him is because he's amongst the best young talents in Europe, and has been tearing up the Spanish league despite being a teenager. Star in u21 Euro champs this summer too
Wake the f-ck up
Yeah..AVB and Chel$ki has never heard Mata's name before they Knew Wenger is after him! DeTimes is classic..
There's a difference between knowing a player exist and trusting him that he can succeed elsewhere enough to invest millions on him.

Here why the f,uck does everyone think he'll be anything like utd's park? Because they come from the same country and have the same name? For christ's sake.
De Times, you're a card.
PK, you're a c.unt.

Thanks Jack, but they dont seem to be running on the TV version, but maybe they are giving transfer news a rest for the action

well perhaps Wenger could go and work as a scout for Chelsea then because he's fast turning into an extremely sh*t football manager.

Let it go Jack, he aint ever coming.
Because he would cost about twice as much as our previous record signing.
If he has a leg amputated we'd have a chance.

Lets give Park a chance to show what he can do for Arsenal. Korean footballers have come a long way since the success of Cha Bum-Kun in the Bundesliga. They are a hard working lot, tough as nail and have superb fitness. He might surprise a few here.
Well there will be no Bendtner or Campbell this season. So we need a backup for RVP that's better than Chamakh.
What's with all these ppl whining that have never even seen him play. I'm sure it's the same ppl that want Hazard but have never seen him play either.

What's happening Jack? Where's your optimism? You surely can't be losing faith in Wenger?
Don't worry we'll sign three superstars at 11.59 pm August 31.

Looks like Chelsea are signing Dutch star Van Der Wiel.
Rumoured he was in London and could be an Arsenal signing for 32 million. As if. Course he's going to a club with ambition.
Top of the league in May is looking further and further away, (for Arsenal, not Chelsea).
