Quote:Football is now a compulsory part of the national curriculum in China.

Its a game for everyone. Its not pale, male, or stale. It transcends race, gender, economic status. Its for everyone. - Tal Karp

It could be a massive issue for other Asian nations competing against China.

Wow. That country is really going to take strides forward.
I reckon the CSL is going to get a lot better over the years.

There might be a few more stumbles along the way, but it's pretty much an inevitability that China will become a dominant force, sooner or later.

They've got the population, they've got the money, and they've got the interest in the game, to leave aside their achievements in other sports and their general cultural disposition to work hard at careers they deem desirable. The infrastructure can't not develop with all the other interests in place in such a volume as China has. Might be 30, 50 or 80 years but yeah as I see it, it's a pretty basic inevitability, barring some massive global change that none of us can foresee. In 2050 two of the world's "big 5" leagues will be the CSL and the MLS (or their successors obv).

Bit worrying. China has it in them to be world-beaters in football. They've got the population, the enthusiasm, the money and can have the infrastructure to be world class at football.
When you think of China, Qatar (who, I heard tell, can wrought FIFA naturalisation rules to claim top class European/South American players), Japan and South Korea, Asia become bloody difficult.

The demographics and wealth are all there. Someone feel free to bump this in 30 years if I'm wrong though. :lol:

Economy is slowing down with every passing year. Lots of big companies axing jobs. China is where the wealth is at. I used to live there, and I've never seen a country grow and change so fast in my life. Lots of supercompanies who will take football teams on board. Look at Guangzhou. They're part owned by Alibaba, a giant electronics company. In fact, Alibaba's logo is all over the opening credits of the new Mission Impossible movie!

J-League will be slowing down, not ramping up.

India has potential, but they might need a bit of a shift first. The success of the recent ISL shows that it can happen, but this is only a very short tournament. If they can maintain average attendance of 20k + during a 6-9 month, then yes, absolutely.
