When you think about it, the move is pretty great. He doesn't go to China to earn 15 million a year. Doesn't go to a dubious club in Qatar. This isn't about money or even competitive football. It's about him enjoying life.

Liverpool would be impossible. Ale's a juventino. It would not go down well.

I checked Sydney's squad and I was like "wtf, I can't believe this 
"
I won't give you promises, but I think I can arrange some of you Aussies here to meet Del Piero. One of their new signings is a die hard Juve fan. I think he'll faint when he'll see Ale next to him in training.
The guy was on my wedding. Beat that!

There's a regular season, followed by a finals series.
The teams that finish at the top of the table and the two teams that contest the final go into the AFC Champions League.
If i remember it correctly they based it on the Swiss league.
There is a Premier at the end of the regular season, followed by a 5 or 6 team finals series. The final game is a one off final played at the home ground of the highest places team going into the final.
The winner of the final series and the runner up play in the following season's Asian Champions league, which starts at the end of the next season (bullshit really as often 12 month wait).
Fairly weak league where speedy and strong players are still often favoured over skillful players. Most clubs are broke and the entire league relies on Australia qualifying for the world cup to remain financially stable. They are currently negotiating the next TV Rights deal that will last for the next 5 seasons (Following the one about to start) and that will hopefully provide much needed cash for the clubs...
The league itself is only 8 years old and replaced the old National Soccer League as it was seen that that league was too reliant on old ethnic ties of clubs. Basically they decided to make a league where all the clubs are the same and it just feels very artificial...
It's not as bad as i make it out to be. The league is competitive enough and probably at the level of the MLS pre-beckam. The fact that the game here is very similar to that of the english game it makes me biased against it.
ADP want's to be the face of a league like becks. He has done everything in the game, therefore this is something new and probably exciting for him. He will be the centre of the whole a-league. big fish in a small pond sort of thing. If Benito Carbone came here and tore it up i'm sure ADP will take the game in Australia to a new level.
I'm sure there are plenty of streams for a-league games.
