Cant blame him. Playing a season on turf at his age is brutal and the misery of the season must have been almost as bad.

best of luck to him. he was probably our best midfield player last season but his lack of health at this point makes him really not such a great choice for us at this time

Well if he’s playing along with some friends in the same team then it’s worth it. They must be in it for the challenge of trying to win in a lower tier league, sound like fun. Hong Kong is a nice place to live in too I think with all those tall buildings and lights.

Actually, the food in Hong Kong makes it all worth it. Good luck to him.

Cheers

Matt, I was reading up on that when you posted. Quite the step down. But hey, its a once in a lifetime opportunity. Why not take it?

Not insulted at all. Good for him. Strange move, though. Kitchee play in the Hong Kong superleague, which is pretty far down the ladder, even for Asia.
