Official 2014 Japanese NT Thread

For someone with no European experience, that was what a Dortmund supporter thought when i chat with him in a pm in Redcafe newbie. He said that Kakitani was too old with no European experience unlike Mkhitaryan or Aubemeyang and he preferred De Bruyne over Kagawa returning as De Bruyne was 2 years younger.

 

Then why not Endo in Europe after the WC? He can be a hit!

 

Thank you for the reality check Gordon, I agree with you. But the rest of the forum might not be ready to hear that truth.

 

All hail the words of a Dortmund supporter on Redcafe.
Nothing more can be said on the subject. This source is infallible.

PS I also heard Nakamura, Nakata, and Ono were failures in Europe and needed years to adjust.

 

The way the fans of these clubs think is different from what posters thnk here as posters here has the

Just giving you a rough idea of how different people think or at least fans of Bundesliga. To them, 24 years old without any European experience is old. Of course, there are players like Thiago Silva.

 

Yea Inter fans also downrate Nagatomo.
And Celtic message boards were also quite harsh to Naka; though they didn't realize what they had til he was gone.
Nobody really cares what the fickle message board fans think, however. That was never germane to the conversation. If Aria wants to go to Europe, there are still chances for him regardless of what random fools on message boards think.

 

I dunno about Scotland and other countries but believe me when I told you that Nagatomo/whichever asian player is really downrate by italian fans (not only from message board but from real life discussions) cuz he's japanese/asian and nothing more.

The only exception to this can be little club like Perugia for Nakata or Reggina for Nakamura or more rarely middle club like Roma for Nakata again (not valued high but with some sort of "simpathy").

 

I think it's time to stop discussing Aria Jasuru Hasegawa in Europe, I think it's time to stop discussing Aria Jasuru Hasegawa on the NT thread, I think it's time to stop discussing Aria Jasuru Hasegawa.

Instead.

 

Even Naka publicly stated that he was subjected to a lot of racism in Serie A once he was at Celtic.
Unfortunately I can never see the images that Saku2 posts =/

 

Back on topic people.

Someone tell me what's Osako-senshu been up to?

 

WOAH, nice one! But I think Uchida could replace Yoshida there, he's more like a "rockstar" and has a better haircut

 

just cant believe there are still no newer fan made videos for JNT team going to Brazil



but here is something "new"

 

Have you seen this video about Asian teams?

 

I just love the way Honda plays football. I wish we had him in our team along other technical players. Honda would have been a golden pair with Ali Karimi!

 

Is Karimi still playing international football?

 

He played for Iranian NT up to 2013. He is still playing for a famous club, but he gave the room to younger players to move Iranian NT forward. He is 35 now. He still plays very well, scores goals and moves a the team alone, because he is a beast. My all time favorite after Ryan Giggs is Ali Karimi. Now I like Ansarifard (Teraxtor), Sardar Azmoun (Rubin Kazan), and Honda (Milan)... I liked the way Nakata used to play, but I respect Honda more.

 

Barring injuries, do you guys think that Endo and Hasebe have lost their place in the starting eleven to Yamaguchi and Aoyama ?

 

Aoyama heh

 

One favourite of mine, Keigo Higashi, how far away from a WC place is he? How is he doing this season?

 

WC place --> Honda - Kagawa - Okazaki ---Kiyotake ---------> Saito -----------------> Masato Kudo ----> Genki Haraguchi------------>Usami, Yasushi Endo, Kashiwagi, Takahagi, Minamino, insert few other names------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> Keigo Higashi


Thats how far

 

YEak okey.

6 of those are regular players so. I meant as a reserve.
