    Diego Forlan is still playing in Brazil and is already rumored to be in talks with a bunch of other Brazilian and MLS clubs. Drogba is still a major player for Galatasaray and they won't let him come here in the middle of the season. Ronaldinho is still a major fixture as well for his club and is the same as Forlan in terms of rumors. Del Pirlo is still a major player in the A-League and they won't let him go at all. Luka Toni is doing well in Serie A right now and again, won't be let go. Eto will never be let go by Chelsea for this. Anelka is at West Brom now.<div><br></div><div>The only ones who we have a chance on are Ballack and Crespo. </div>

    <font face="Arial, Verdana" size="2">If it is like the PLS then we could see some nice non-marquee foreigners. I remember PLS managed to get Santino Quaranta who was literally fresh out of MLS at the time (and at a reasonable age, however, only because he retired early). So we could see something good.</font>

  • On one hand the I-League clubs oppose the tournament by not releasing players and on the other they are planning to bid for the franchisee. What hypocricy...
