A League Rumors

Watched the first half of the Melbourne Victory game last night. Fucking rancid. Switched over to the Adelaide game which was much more enjoyable. Nathan Burns is a star.

1. Source have indicated that Scott Chipperfield may make his way to Melbourne Victory before the new season to strengthen their backline.Additionally, Bangkok news reports have stated that impressive Brazilian striker Ney Farbiano (who scored the first goal against Victory in their 3-1 Champions League defeat in Bangkok) will leave Chonburi FC after their next CL tie against Gamba Osaka and come to Australia. Melbourne Victory are the most likely candidate for this move, as they have had first-hand experience with Ney Farbiano.

2. Adelaide United have been monitoring the position of Troisi for sometime and have contacted his agent about becoming Adelaide's U23 Marquee with the imminent departure of Burns and Djite.

3. PERTH Glory have added two new names to the roster for next season with the signings of attacking midfielders Adriano Pellegrino and Argentinean Adrian Trinidad.Trinidad will link-up with Ivory Coast striker Eugene Dadi, Englishman James Robinson and local stars Jamie Harnwell and Nikita Rukavytsya in a revamped Glory attack that Coach Dave Mitchell is confident will register plenty of goals on a consistent basis.

4. Also check out the GSE giving some stick to those mofo's at SBS. http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/blogs/halftimeorange/cruyff-when-football-comes-second-110115/#article2

Question; Are Asian players considered foreigners, or are out of those restrictions because of our involvement now with the AFC?
