You know when it' easy to tell you're £#%&!ed, sarcasm becomes your weapon of choice, as you aren't intelligent enough to do anything else.

The difference between us is I can see, understand and appreciate what both players bring to the team, the job they are there to do and what they are capable of. Players, incidentally, I was watching and wanted United to sign before they ever arrived at Old Trafford.

Tevez is more creative than Park, hence he's a striker, Park is better defensively and joining in with open interplay, hence he is a midfielder. No mess, no fuss, wins the ball, passes it, finds space. Everything you want from a player. Nearly scored twice tonight too. He will start having some luck in front of goal and get 3 or 4 in quick succession as he did in 2006 before he got injured.

I think both are superb and am delighted to have them at OT.

You, are a #@&%!.

A massive cheesy one at that.

you werent the only one wishing we would sign park. had him earmarked to replace giggs before he played so well against milan and was so made up when we opened up our warchest and spend £3.5m on him.

park is a central midfielder that we use on the wing. he'd be box to box too if we ever played him there. his intelligence is as good as teddy's used to be, his selfless running is a credit to our attacking play and his graft is a dream for the likes of carrick. his stats infront of goal arn't impressive but then again, we dont rely on him to win us games.

he's a very important cog.

Good, I'm glad we got that one out of the way, 1 down 2 to go.

Now, do you want to tackle - 'Anderson and why he has a lot more to do to prove he is a worthy squad player, let alone a £20m 1st team midfielder', or , 'Dimitar Berbatov and why he is better than Zlatan and is our No.2 Striker behind Wayne Rooney', next?

Park has proven in the past that he is capable of creating and scoring goals. In his first season, I believe he had numerous assists (I'm not sure if he was top of the list, but he wasn't far off).

I'm not sure someone who constantly bleats on about Anderson should be slagging off other players for their lack of goals and assists. Especially players who have shown they are capable in the past, when Anderson has shown next to nothing.

judging his ability to create goals on his first season and not the current one.
good point and makes your the rest of your post NOT hypocritical.

No, 'cos he's not a striker you simple £#%&!er.

Tevez works like a trojan, harasses CB's and FB's for the ball, never giving them a minutes peace, starting centrally, up against the defence, he wanders into wide and deep positions to collect the ball and puts strain on defences by running at them with varying degree's of success. His touch sometimes lets him down and his selection and delivery of final pass are suspect at times. He interchanges well with the players around him, using his strength to hold the ball up. His finishing is erratic and is mostly of the 'leather it and hope' variety, hence he misses his fair share of chances. He has performed very well for United gets his fair share of goals as a striker, but it is fair to say that he hasn't reached the heights and performances he did earlier in his career. And I for one hope we sign him permanently in order for him to have chance to find his true best form and improve and mature as a player.

Park works like a trojan, harasses CB', FB's, CM's and wide players for the ball, never giving them a minutes peace, starts in wide positions to collect the ball and puts strain on defences by running at them with varying degree's of success, he also adept at picking up space centrally and in the oppositions penalty area. His touch sometimes lets him down and his selection and delivery of final pass are suspect at times. He interchanges well with the players around him, using his tricky footwork to engineer space and link up with his team mates. His finishing is erratic and is mostly of the 'leather it and hope' variety, hence he misses his fair share of chances, as he tends to get a touch anxious and scuffs the ball, meaning his goal return is not what it should be, but that is not his primary function. He can operate on either side of the pitch ad the extra work he puts in enables other players to concentrate on the more creative side of the game.

Fair descriptions?

you say -

park has proved he can create goals in his first season meaning it would be wrong to criticise him for it now.

im saying -

i agree and your post about anderson showing next to nothing is spot on because if you judged him on his first season (like you did park) you would see he has proved NOTHING and was completely useless in terms of assists.

we are in agreement here mate.

Correct. Anderson didn't prove anything in terms of assists. Decent passing at times, but nothing really incisive. He may have got 1 assist, I think that was about it.
