PLAYERS THAT ARE RUMOURED TO LEAVE BEIJING GUOAN Pacheco, Beijing Guoan's manager, has submitted a list of players he won't use to the management. The players are: - Ma Chongchong - Yan Xiangchuang - Zhang Sipeng - Ding Haifeng
i hope you guys all heard about shandong luneng's new coach: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henk_ten_Cate and didier drogba is rumoured to be heading to shanghai shenhua, with 80% of the move finalized already.
Tai Sheng, a defender from Liaoning, has just signed for Guangzhou Evergrande. He is the fifth signing of Guangzhou for this transfer.
Hay it looks like it's official that Shaanxi Chanba have decided to move to Guizhou. http://sports.163.com/12/0108/13/7N8FQJ0I00051C89.html Kind of feel sorry for the Shaanxi fans, there were quite a few of them and the club had one of the best attendances.
It's Qin Sheng. A somewhat surprising transfer since he has never been that impressive a player, but I think its a depth signing, someone to eat up minutes for them. Definitely a sad day, though I expect a club will be back in Xian sometimes soon.

My thoughts exactly. I don't see how the league moves a team that averages almost 28,000 people a game. How is the league supposed to grow if they move established teams. Coming from Seattle I can feel their pain
this is is chinese soccer for ya....a company buys a team, plays for a few year, gets bored and says f* it, we dont want to play no more. team either gets moved or worse yet, leaves CSL. happened to a lot of teams.
CONFIRMED: I am not sure how they renegotiated the deal. Dong Fangzhuo will join China second-tier club Hunan Billows FC for a two-year stint.

Good exposure for Shanghai Shenhua, but how many errors can you spot in this article? http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/jan/18/nicolas-anelka-shanghai-shenhua-china
Overall it's a decent article, but the comment about baseball outpacing football is really laughable. me too...argh, a month and a half until ACL begins...
Shanghai still hopeful of Drogba deal http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/s...'obstacles'-in-didier-drogba-transfer?cc=5901
Here's another Shanghai / Drogba article http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16628786.stm Did anybody spot the mistakes?
Ri Kwang Chon (north korea captain) in Tianjin Teda http://calciocorea.altervista.org/ri-kwang-chon-al-tianjig-teda/
All I want for Chinese New Year is the 2012 season schedule to be released sometime in February! Am I asking too much? Probably..
update: the North Korean captain is close to signing with Tianjin TEDA Li Weifeng, the Chinese captain and TEDA starter, thinks Ri Kwang Chon is a very good player (especially the north korean can play different positions). ri kwang chon has been invited to join the oversea training in turkey.
