Does Kiyotake's departure mean Kakitani gets a starting spot now? Credit to the guys at Cerezo who scouted and trained the three stars, all in Europe now.
http://hochi.yomiuri.co.jp/soccer/jleague/news/20120526-OHT1T00044.htm Leandro could be back at Gamba.
They finally get it If he is back I think Gamba is saved and hope they learned an important lesson here
Pixy will be looking for "fresh blood" for Nagoya's first team. He feels the team has lost its character and, in particular, are lacking a cutting edge up front. I can't guarantee a timeframe, but he's definitely looking to sign some new players.
Given that Nagoya currently have only 3 Non-Japanese players, its likely one of the new players will be a foreigner. Let's hope it will be a top-quality player preferrably from Europe ( not that I am Euro-biased, but it will be good with more diversity anyway and currently there are way too many mediocre Brazilians in the league), and not another Burzanovic.
http://www.sponichi.co.jp/soccer/news/2012/05/31/kiji/K20120531003364310.html Atleast you'll be happy that its interest from Italy and not Germany.
just read the article, well, actually there's nothing "real" from what I read but let's see. I'm also glad other countries are noticing japanese players.
lol haha. You know that Sakai didn't want to go to Germany ? Because everybody went there. But Kroth and blahblah. About Ogihara, when I talked to him, he acknowledged it was a learning experience and I sensed like he was hungry for more. He had many up and down during a single match so I guess clubs were seduced by the rare bright moments.
I dont think Ogihara is ready for Europe. His role DMC is especially hard since it involves a lot of physical play, something which Japanese naturally lack. If he does go, Netherlands would be an ok distination. I would advise against Italy because of the said physicality of the game
It's true that Nagai/Kanazaki haven't fulfilled their potential yet and Tamada and Kennedy aren't getting any younger, but I reckon Grampus need a new CB to back up Masukawa and Tulio.
Pixy's looking for an "answer" up front, which is where he's particularly looking for said fresh blood, but it's always possible he'll try to sign another defender as well if someone special is available. As said, he feels the team has lost its character, so there might be new players right across the park.
http://www.ardija.co.jp/news/detail/2387.html So that's official - Zdenko Verdenik will be the new Ardija's coach.
Haha, I was talking with Zdenko Verdenik 1 month ago had an interview him and he ll probably help me write a book when he comes back from Japan Now this is something. Need to write him a text message right away
http://globoesporte.globo.com/sp/ca...-revela-negativa-lusa-e-ida-para-o-japao.html Renato Cajá is coming to Japan. "I'm signing with a Japanese club. I'm going there definitely in the next days. I still can't tell what club is, but it's from the first division and has an excellent structure. I'm very glad with this. The Chinese wanted to loan me to a Brazilian club, Portuguesa, but I didn't want.", he said in the link above. Cajá played for my team, Botafogo, in 2010. He is an offensive midfielder and was a decent substitute at most. He was bought by Guangzhou and loaned to Serie B last year, where he played for promoted side Ponte Preta. Whatever J1 club he signs for, I can just tell you to not expect much.
thanks! that's good info! I'm guessing he will either play for Consadole, Omiya or Nagoya! (Just wild guesses of course )
