Top Ten Worst Premier League Signings Of 2012/13

Posted by

6. Park Ji-Sung (Queens Park Rangers)

After an impressive seven year spell at Manchester United where he earned the trust of Sir Alex Ferguson as a big game player, Park Ji-Sung looked like an absolute steal for Queens Park Rangers when he signed for a fee of roughly just £2million, but he has failed to make any significant impact whatsoever on their disastrous relegation season. The South Korean was even made captain upon signing for Rangers, but has been anything but a leader for the club when they’ve needed him. It’s clear now that Park was benefited by being surrounded by top players at Old Trafford, rather than having much individual quality to lift a side by himself. While QPR players could easily have dominated this whole list, Park probably stands out as the worst of their many signings due to his reputation before joining the club. See also: Jose Bosingwa, Jermaine Jenas, Andrew Johnson, Fabio, Christopher Samba and Tal Ben Haim. Funnily enough, after failing so spectacularly to cement the team’s place in the top flight, these players will probably all leave the club in the summer, thinking themselves too big for the Championship.
