rick, thanks very much! makes it very easy for me! i asked rick to do a sprt of ranking on the list so i can know who i should be paying attention to. again, much obliged.
Whoa, what's up with the hate The title of the thread is Asians in Europe, it doesn't classify anything like what you've said. And obviously some people are interested like Bob. The thread was made originally to track all Asian based players no matter where you're playing. I smell some sort of complex Spase Dilevski is on here because those were his appearances for the 2010-11 season. Gulum is still there because he's still eligible. What exactly don't you like about listing third division players? They are proffesionals are they not? They are getting paid to play a sport, i'm sure a lot more than you've achieved in life and like I said at the beginning of this post, there are no restrictions on who to include at all. As far as Japanese players in Hungary or Latvia, list them! I don't begrudge players based on where they're playing unlike a certain someone. hint hint. And lastly, just to correct yourself. Shane Lowry - played in the Championship, not League 1 Adrian Madaschi - played in Serie B, not Serie C1 Trent McClenahan - played in the Championship and has been inactive for the last 6 months And hey, what's wrong with Alex Cisak, 21, playing proffesionally as a goalkeeper and is on the up, I like it. Certainly would rather be playing reguarly than sitting on benches especially for a goalkeeper.

Great stuff mate, but would also add Brent McGrath who plays for Brondby in the Danish Superliga, he even scored on the weekend And Christian Esposito who plays for Novara in Serie A albeit he hasn't kicked a ball for over a year because of injury. Scott Chipperfield still plays for Basel in Switzerland albeit he retired from the national team last year. And lastly, Matt McKay will join Rangers once his work permit goes through sometime this week!
Don't want to nitpick but you forgot Palestine's players in the Allsvenskan: Imad Zatara (MF, 26 years old) at Syrinaksa and Hicham Ali (MF, 20 years old) at Malmö FF.
Ryfa For the Philippines, you might also want to include: Dennis Cagara D 26 Lyngby FC Danish Superliga There are also a few young players playing in the top tiers of France(Alphonse Areola for PSG) and Sweden(Nazari brothers for Malmo) who can still potentially play for the Philippines, all of whom are alternates for their team.
