OFFICIAL: Lee Chung-Yong signs for Crystal Palace

Bolton Wanderers can announce that Lee Chung-Yong has signed for Premier League side Crystal Palace for an undisclosed fee.

The Korean international leaves Bolton after five-and-a-half-seasons, having made 195 appearances and scoring 20 goals.

He joined the club from FC Seoul in the summer of 2009 and has since gone on to represent Korea Republic in back-to-back World Cups as well as captain his nation on a number of occasions.

One of the attacking midfielder’s most memorable moments for the Whites came against Birmingham City when he scored a late winner in a 3-2 FA Cup quarter final victory at St Andrew’s in 2011.

The 26-year-old made his last appearance for the club against Huddersfield Town last month.

Bolton Wanderers would like to thank Lee for his contributions during his time at the club and wish him well in his future endeavours.

Chungyyy

Money grabbing ponce.

We will pass each other next season ..... we go up ...they come down..... Nice.

We carried a bloke all the way thru his injuries only for him to jump ship on us. I don't blame him though......this is business.

I don't blame him. With his ability and the age he is, he deserves another crack in The Premier League - whether or not he can still cut after his past, and no doubt future, injuries is another matter.

The failings of our board and their disastrous appointments of Lee and Freedman are to blame.

Saw Chungy get his debut whilst watching MOTD last night. 

He had a bit of a shocker for Hulls second goal. First he does a terrible cross which is headed straight back to him and then he just gave the ball away when he was intercepted and hull just ran up the pitch and finished the game off.

Not the greatest debut ever witnessed.

I agree. It was his woefully misplaced pass that led to Hulls second goal. He'll have to up his game if he wants to impress Pardew.

Grass....greener.......etc etc

I would imagine his first team appearances will be limited there.  Not what he wants I would presume. Remember Lennon got the best out of him but before that quite a few of us wanted to get rid anyhow.

It was an appalling mistake by Chungy on a day when ex-Wanderers were generally poor (apart from Nobby who did
ok in a poor West Ham performance) Notable amongst them was Matty Taylors penalty miss for Burnley that has pretty much got them relegated along with Sordell's missed header. Reminded me of why we got relegated from the Premiership.

Good to see his ponce ways picked up at Bolton haven't been lost. What a pathetic excuse for a footballer.

You found your level in the Championship, just accept it you twat.

Yeah, you're a fucking genius.

Who'd have thought someone going from a crap Championship club to a top half Premier League club wouldn't start every game?

As stated in another thread....you are in fact the fooking idiot on this board by universal acclaim.

that's him sitting in the reserves for the rest of the season then. The few times i have seen him he has looked average apart from that one screamer he scored a couple of months ago.

You just know some goon on the BN site is going to get hold of this and start posting "Get Chungy back!" in the comments.

I'd have him back if we could get him cheap enough wouldn't you? He's a darn sight better than the vast majority of what we have now.

He was utter shite for 90% of his Bolton career. Admittedly that's better than the 100% that seems to be the standard these days.
