His cousin Park has generated a silly amount for Man Utd and he doesn't exactly average a lot of games a season...
Thing about Chu though is he is actually a very good striker with a bloody good engine, who just so happens to be in some good goalscoring form.
At the very least, i would have expected a sub appearence in the league, then again, maybe AW so scared of changing things and us doing even worse, that he doesn't want to give him a run out...
Time for AW to grow a pair me thinks.
As far as I'm concerned the key is playing Chu-Chu. If we don't play him exposure in his country will peak for a minute and tail off, despite his "Royal" status (we've seen this "royalty" lark before with Vela. I'd wager we no longer make as much money from Mexicans as we did initially [if at all we did....]).
Certainly not enough reason to buy him for commercial reasons. Don't presume the Far East fans are senseless. They understand consumerism better than most.
Ji Sung Park may not play that much BUT, he plays in crucial games. That's what his signing a commercial success in that part of the world. If indeed they needed it at all....
Anyways, I'm sure we'll see him before too long.
