    By the way Nakamura was the first choice Keeper the hole season. Really didnt know that. How can he not be Japans Nr. 1 ? As a starter in a good European league?

    Didnt know much about him, but with a japanese keeper as a starter he maybe should have played for JNT even at the world cup? Maybe only for the european boost.

    What do you think?

    I think life has been harsh on his career, given the two major injuries in the Summer of the 2018 WC and the cold shoulders he's getting from the JNT in the last year.

    This past season was the first in which Kosuke played as Portimonense’s first choice keeper, after Samuel Portugal moved to Porto. It came a little too late to be integrated into the WC squad but his patience has paid off through recognition as one of the better keepers in the Primeira Liga, as well as reported interest from the likes of Lyon.

    Oh okay, didnt know that. Which means played a good season?

    Is he talented? Almost know nothing about him. Do you think he can become the No. 1 ?

    WTF?????

    Nakamura on the bench? There is no way.

    No matter how "bad" pre season is. When you are the top Keeper of the hole league last season you start next season. Thats it.

    Someone knows more? Maybe a little injured

    Is somebody knows more about Nakamuras bench Situation? I mean the keeper who plays actually comes from Brazils Serie A and was even there the second choice and plays almost zero games in his hole carrer as a professionel.

    The guy is 29 and has only 30 caps in his hole carer. He shouldnt be a Nr. 1 in any european Team.

    How it can be that he is in front of the best leagues GK last season? Or at least in the pool of the best GKS?
    There must be some other reason.

    Its like they made me to the Nr. 1 GK ^^

    I really have no clue about the club, so I dont nothing. But I imagine its nothing about performance?

    But I guess its only a question of time till Nakamura is back into the goal.

    Don't know what's happening, but easy on the "best goalkeeper of the league" my friends. It's just one opinion from an unofficial website among many many others.

    Yeah youre right, thats why I am saying that he is maybe not the best but surely in the pool as one of the best last season.

    Even when its unofficial it comes no from nowhere as a partner from bwin.

    And a 29y brazilian keeper with 0 games last season and only 30 caps in his hole carrer is maybe one of the worst GKs ever.

    Asked a portuguese friend if he heard something, told me that last year Nakamura basically saved from relegation one of the most awful team he witnessed in Portugal 1st division (he was being really honest, from the guts lol). Looks like he had offers from various clubs, including Lyon and Fenerbahce.

    He might be on the go, or just have lost his spot due to a failed transfer. We'll see.

    It makes sense if he lost the spot because he was negotiating a transfer.

    I thought something like this but the coach is an idiot then to bench Nakamura when he still stays and Nakamura is at this club for 2 years its okay to look for something other. But to bench maybe your best player out of that and replace him with a guy who almost has 0 games before is not a good choice which is shown in the incresible amount of goals they concede.

    2-3 games and maybe 5-15 goals more to concede and Nakamura will be a starter again with a new coach :). I bet he knows it.
