And So It Begins - Park Out For 3 Months

Just thought I'd squeeze this in before the Celtic game. Shamelessly taken from Soccernet. A couple more injuries like this and we can kiss our season goodbye.

Manchester United midfielder Park Ji-sung has been ruled out of action for three months with ankle ligament damage. Sir Alex Ferguson revealed on Tuesday that the 25-year-old South Korea international was going for a scan after picking up an injury in training but expressed the hope that Park could be fit for tonight's encounter with the Scottish champions. However, United officials confirmed Park will require an operation that could keep him out for three months, effectively ruling him out of all United's European group games plus 12 Premiership games. Coming less than a fortnight after the transfer window closed, Park's absence could cause a major disruption to an already stretched United midfield, which Ferguson revealed today he had tried to strengthen by making a bid for Villarreal's Marcos Senna on deadline day.
