Arsenal striker Park Chu-young insists he is ready to lead the club's attack next month when his team-mates go to the African Cup of Nations. The South Korea skipper has scored once since his summer move from Monaco in four appearances for the Gunners. Park, however, is set to be handed more appearances in January when Gervinho and Marouane Chamakh head off to represent their countries in the tournament. And having had the time to adjust to life in England, he is confident about being able to fill that breach.

Chances

"All my team-mates are great players," Park told Arsenal Player. "I do not expect a chance for me because a player is unavailable. I will do my best to prepare myself to take any random chances at any time. "I am new to this club and to the Premier League. I am trying hard to learn more and more. "I don't worry about getting used to everything or anything. My team-mates are nice to me and I do not have any problems at all regarding training."
