2016/17 Squad Thread

[Jeterpool]

Can anyone explain the benefit to me of Lee forcing us to sign a Chinese player who's not even good enough to crack our starting line-up?

I can't make any sense of it whatsoever. I certainly wouldn't start following a crap Chinese team because some random young Aussie was sitting on the bench.

Is there a possibility this kid might actually help us?

I'm not seeing them joinging is all about contributing on the field. Rightly or wrongly, it's about increasing our exposure and support in China.

People in China are streaming and viewing our games. This player will sell shirts. This could also help attract more sponsors from overseas into our club.

The Chinese player is more than simply what they will add to the squad. And I think there's a good chance they could add something to the squad. They aren't a kid (27) and they have been playing in Portugal 2.
