Found my man! And I have his email and MSN account as well so I can talk to him more. Only was able to talk to Herr Xu for about 10 minutes, but I hope to get more access to him online. Got 2 pictures with him, will post it when I get back to Kobenhavn.
He didn't play this year. He probably won't play next year. He still has one year left. I think Li Tie going back to China to play for Sheffield United's Chengdu Blades is the best option for all parties.
My optimistic guess is a loss in the finals vs. Australia. I really think the China squad is stronger than S. Korea and Iran, but probably not Japan or the Socceroos.

Zheng zhi created many chances for Charlton. But at the same time, He missed so many scoring chances himself. It would be funny to watch if someone makes a video compilation of all the one on one chances missed by him.
If they want to play that game, i agree with you. The games i've seen with Zheng , about 4-5 he were easily one of their best.
Pearce has been sacked by Man City... Wonder what the new coach will do and if he will value Sun Jihai the same way as Psycho...
Maybe it's time for Sun to move ? Another EPL club ? He said he and his family never really liked England.
^Well unfortunately, I don't think Sun is very highly rated here, and neither is Zheng Zhi. Dong isn't highly rated, but I've heard some positive comments. I feel Asians need to get rid of the 'only-here-to-sell-shirts' tag.
