How many games park played in the middle for us? Can't be more than 5 times in his entire time here. And now he's better than than out wide? OK.
Cleverly plays on the wing. So we have 4 players who act as covers for our main two. They can and do play out wide to good effect. But let's sign more just for the sake of it.
Cleverly and Obertan have yet to prove they are even good enough to be deputies so I don't think they'd feature in a decision over signing a high end player like Sanchez.
When was the last time you saw Park playing wide then ? After the Bayern game I didn't recall him starting on the wing... Only brought on the wings as a substitute. SAF stated himself that he found a new role for Park, so I'm just going with SAF.
Cleverly does play on the wing, no mistake on that but he has the skills to do better in a central role ( Thats what people who watch him day in day out are saying ) not that I totally agree with them but it does mean that he has the potential to move to a central role like Giggs.
I'm not saying to sign A.Sanchez, just stating that if SAF goes for him, it should be the reasons I mentioned to you.
If you don't agree then I don't really mind.
I'd love to see a player who'd step up and prove himself in the World cup... Talking footballing wise not muppet wise.
Muppet wise of course, I'd hope the next day E.Hazard would just hold the vacant Tosic shirt and would sign for us for just 15m.
After Bayern.. when was that? Back in August last year in pre-season? 
After playing him centrally in about 5 times in his whole time here, he's now a CM?
Cleverley did well playing out wide for Watford. He can play anywhere in the attacking third I guess.
Still, we have plenty of players who can play there. Two first teamers, one veteran, one squad, and two promising youngsters. And it's not like Nani and Valencia are that old. They're only around 24. If we're signing a winger, it'll be J.Cole on a free.

If you did watch the first leg vs Bayern... Park certainly played behind Rooney so take that laugh back Wan.
Just to remind you... Park Vs Liverpool, Park Vs AC Milan were his stand out matches last season coming all from playing behind Rooney.
What's his best position, right winger or striker?
Is it possible to position Sanchez as a wing back? In one instance, see how he shields the ball away from Villa in his own box.
You make it sound as if Park only plays behind Rooney or CM you call it by mentioning that Bayern game. I know very well which one, which is in April. Hardly long enough to say he's better off playing there. The joke is on you.
I'm not interested in talking to you anymorea as I did post " Park has done better in an CM role where he marks the oppositions playmaker... Still a good backup winger.. "
I did state he is still a good winger... go Wan.K yourself for not reading properly.

Park's best role has always been as a central player, he's been best there for South Korea and PSV. I'm not sure if Sir Alex did say he found a new role for him but h's talking out of his arse if he did.
You sounded as if it's been ages since Park played out wide.
Oh ho, so he's a good backup winger now. Funny you didn't mention that once. Just like Giggsy is these days. And we have Obertan and Cleverley as well. Let's sign another winger or two eh? See where I'm going?
Err...he kind of did. In the first post of his you quoted, I think.
He didn't even read the post properly, probably saw CM and just went Berserk or something.
Did I write anywhere that the muppet in me wanted to sign this lad ? I wrote, if SAF see's him qualtiy then I'm with this signing. FFS, try reading my post properly first and get a life.
From tomorrow's NOTW:
CHILE superstar Alexis Sanchez has his heart set on a move to Manchester United.
The Udinese winger has been forwarded as a potential replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo ever since the Portuguese icon was sold to Real Madrid.
And his performances at the World Cup have only enhanced his growing reputation, despite being surprisingly substituted against Spain.
Sanchez's sparkling form has reaffirmed Sir Alex Ferguson's interest in his services and sources close to the player claim he's dreamed of joining the Red Devils since his boyhood years.
"All Alexis wants is to play for Manchester United," revealed a Chile team-mate, who did not want to be named.
"He'd give anything for that."
Udinese insist they don't want to sell the 21-year-old, who is nicknamed 'El Nino Maravilla' (the Wonder Boy), but it's understood the wide man would jump at the chance to head for Old Trafford.
Antonio Valencia has replaced Ronaldo on the right flank for the dethroned champions but Sanchez's apparent desire to come to Manchester is certain to give Ferguson some food for thought.

You beat me to it. I think its good news.
He's said before that United are his dream club.
He'll end up at Madrid...Benzema's teammate said he was coming to United. 
Definetly wont be coming then.
So was Aaron Ramsey's & Jeremy Menez's. They proceeded with signing for another club.
Sure the guy is 21...no i know he's 21! They should at least do some research in to a player for us to actually believe their stories have some credibility!!! However, i'm sure it was just a typo error!!
I know, I was just pointing out that the supposed revelation from his unnamed teammate was nothing new.
its from 2008
Clearly he hasn't gotten around to learning the thousands yet.
Thanx for pointing that out. That's why my teachers always used to say read the WHOLE question before answering! .
15.8 million, now that's what I call value.
Yes but only if you need the player. If he could play more central then yes it would be value but 16m for a winger to compete with the several other wingers we have wouldn't be value.
This kid is exactly the type of player I could see Fergie going for and is one of the few transfer links this summer that looks semi legitimate.
Young, talented, and not likely to cost a massive amount in relative terms when the likes of Milner are being quoted at £20m and we sold Ronaldo for 80 odd million. He might play in a position when we have reasonable cover and options but that has never stopped Fergie purchasing players in such positions before.
In fact, Fergie's got a long history of doing this from signing Webb, Phelan and Ince together when we had Robbo, signing Evra when he had Silvestre and Heinze, signing Anderson when we had OH, Carrick, Scholes and Fletch, signing Berba when we had Rooney, Ronaldo and Tevez. If he thinks the player is worth the investment for the future he will do it.
Nani and Valencia did have both have good seasons last year but there is no guarantee that both will be as good this time around and it is always a good idea to build for the future and with Giggs soon to retire and Park creeping towards his 30's, another winger is not out of the question.
If we did sign this kid, I think there would be a good chance that would be our lot for the summer with Smalling and Hernandez already signed up. That won't meet the approval of the sign 'a cm at all costs brigade' but I'd be happy with our squad if that is all Fergie went for.

Who gives a damn... We never needed Rooney but we brought him anyway. Sanchez looks like if developed right he could really be a quality player.. Plays with no fear, which is hard to find these days. Last one we had we sold.
Better than Milner anyway.
We won't sign him. Feel free to bump the thread in September.
We could sign him. There is no real reason to as why we won't!
We dont need him. Thats the biggest and best reason why we wont sign him.
However, if someone came in with £50 million for Nani or Valencia and we decided to sell then he'd be at the top of the list of replacements.
I'm sure if fergie wants him we'll go for him.
We need more than just 2 wingers at our club, especially with the number of games we play. Yes people will say we have park and giggs but we will need a replacement, so why let our rivals have someone with so much potential?!
Do people on this forum understand that Sanchez is perfectly capable of playing centrally as well as on the wing? Because alot of the negative comments seem to overlook that fact.
