2011/12 Shinji Okazaki @ VfB Stuttgart (GER) Thread [R]

i want him back as a striker and not a midfielder or winger...

 

As long as Labaddia holds on to Cacau as a sure starter (who had his captain's armband voted off by the team btw), there'll be no change for Okazaki (or Harnik).

 

Too bad he does not play him as a striker. No one can expect him to score more than 5-6 goals each season that. He is not that good as a winger.

Funny he is not aloud to play striker since he is always scoring as hell for the NT.

 

He plays at RM for JNT. Though it's more flexible and he runs a lot so it sort of can be interpreted as RWF.

It'd be great if he got a chance to play at the top of the formation. His strength is his runs in behind the defence and obviously that's more difficult to do from a midfield position.

I guess I was right.

 

Leading 4-0 at HT, he scored 1 goal.

It's funny, Cacau is not here and all of a sudden, the team looks good. Guess why.

 

Nice header.

 

Still, Okazaki is Stuttgart's second best goalscorer with 5 goals after Harnik. Not a bad number for a player who mostly plays as winger. I predict he'll score 6~8 goals in the end.

 

Hope so.

 

Okazaki says in an Intervie that he want to score 10+ goals.When his Team continue to play better and with Sakai on his side i think he can score 8-12 goals.Hope he can get some assists

Bit better quality clip of his goal (and Kagawa's).

After his goal Okazaki celebrated with the team 'rocking a child'-style (not to be seen in the clip unfortunately) as Gotoku's second child was born the day before.

 

Gotoku's second child!

How old was he when the first child was born?

 

Finally! He puts it in the way we know he can!

More crosses directed at Shinji's head please!

 

Okazaki just scored a sick bicycle kick!

 

Okazaki just scored a stunning bicycle kick against Hannover to make it 2:4 with 10 minutes to go.

 

Can't wait to see his goal.
