Street scene in Kunming
Following training yesterday, Charlton's Zheng Zhi has been ruled fit for today's clash with the Soccerroos in China's south-western city of Kunming, according to normally reliable ruling circle sources.
However, the Chinese authorities are relieved that Shao Jiyai from the Bundesliga is available again to play against the Australians in the so-called 'Group of Death'. The Aussies are complaining that the 1,900 metre altitude of the city gives the home side an advantage.
The People's Daily commented: 'Shao's return should give a boost to China's thinly spread offense, which had to rely heavily on England Championship club Charlton midfielder Zheng Zhi in its first match.'
Sources in China are indicating some interesting developments in relations between Charlton and potential Chinese sponsors.

I hope Zizi is not considered for the Wolves game. He came back from his last away trip with the Chinese team looking tired. He has not performed in 2008 at anywhere near the level we saw him play earlier. Either he's off form or he's tired. This trip can't help the situation.
