Park Makes Monaco Move

3
The week before the transfer window closes is always a busy one. This year it slammed shut on the evening of September 1. Clubs had to buy players before then or they are doomed to wait until January before they can add to their rosters. It can be frantic.

That wasn't the case for South Korean players until last week – it had been quiet, too quiet. Click to continue reading...

CL/UEFA Cup Draw: Luca Toni’s Reunion and Trips to Romania

1
The qualification rounds of this year's European competitions concluded yesterday. The good news is, that no Bundesliga team has been knocked out yet.

Why Pick Lee?

1
Young-Pyo Lee has joined Dortmund after the club agreed to terms with Tottenham Hotspur for the South Korean fullback. Lee's survival at Spurs this long has been something of a oddity for us Lilywhites as he had fallen behind Gareth Bale, Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Jamie O'Hara and Gilberto in Juande Ramos' estimation.
