January Transfer Window Report

In English football, there are two times when teams can make trades, the Pre-Season Transfer Window and the Mid-Season Transfer Window. Well the Mid-Season window just ended and here's a complete rundown of which players went where in the EPL:

For me Chelsea had the most interesting transfer window, off-loading a boatload of players including the marauding defender Branislav Ivanovic to Zenit St. Petersburg, and two players -- John Obi Mikel and Oscar -- to clubs in the Chinese Super League.

The Chinese Super League? Indeed. It seems the Chinese are really making a play to bulk up their league with European talent lately. Could the CSL be the new EPL? Hardly. But...is it time to start thinking about supporting a CSL team??
