SO he is being sold or its a loan?? IF I am not wrong, Debreceni is playing in qualifying rounds of Champions League.
I have no idea what you're talking about, considering I always said the opposite Glad to see he moved on to have a career somewhere. edit: besides this team even played Champions League in 2009-2010, so double fail
do you know something we don't, like that there's not a chance to get there again while he's there? I guess in the spanish third division instead, chances were higher lol at least now he has a chance to actually win an european league instead of battling to not get to the 4th division.
Should have just come back to Japan. He's wasting his time in Europe at this point. Even if he scores 15+ goals in Hungary, he's not going to get the same recognition as if he scores 10+ in Japan.
rotfl anyway, he doesn't need to go anywhere else. If he can find his dimension here, it's good enough to join a side that can win the league and play champions league PL or europa league playoffs every time. First thing he has to actually win a spot here. I'm not sure what gives you the right to think that he's wasting his time. Clearly he could've moved back to Japan, but if it was me, I'd make the move just to enjoy living in another country for a while, while I'm paid to play football in their top side. Besides, about the recognition, I doubt it. If he gets a chance to play Europa League with this side for example, that's 100+ times the exposition, just like it happened with Taku Ishihara.
Hungarian football is on the rise, apparently. Their national team had decent results in World Cup qualifying. Small steps toward recapturing the glory of the 1950's when they were the best in Europe.
Worked well for him. And yeah I maintain an excellent liga team's reserve is not far away from the best Hungarian club
Our beloved slenderman, the last time we seen him with the NT Jersey was just before Olympic Games 2012, and Sekizuka sacked him. I really hope he will explode there in Ungary and to see him finally with the Samurai Blue jersey since it seems we need a pole sometimes to get out of Greece-like match.
Valencia II plays in the Spanish third tier which is divided into four groups. In that group Valencia barely managed to stay above the water sufrace Valencia II can clean the boots to the likes of Debrecen
Yeah, Mizuno also moved from JLeague to Celtic and it worked well for him, those transfers from JLeague better stop. Let the guy have a chance to actually win something.
Unless JEF were engaged in the Europa League I don't see what you are talking about. I'm just saying Ibusuki going to Valencia 2 was not a mistake but just, as this move to Debrecen is, another step in his low tier career.
I'm talking about the fact that there is zero correletion between Ishihara not being good enough and earning a transfer through Europa League's visibility. Well, personally I'm saying it was a stupid mistake instead and that this is a way smarter step in his low tier career. If he's lucky, he'll even win the league and contribute to that, or maybe even get to play in Europa League. Debrecen just beat Olympique Lyon 4-2 in preseason a couple of days ago, and yes, I'm not that stupid, it's pre season and I bet OL had lots of reserves, but imagine if it was Valencia II who barely escaped relegation from the 4th division playing. That's like assuming Debrecen would have an hard time surviving in spanish third tier, come on now :/ scroll above, I think it was posted.
You made it sound like it made a huge difference for Ishihara, he just joined another low tier club and went even lower after that. Don't see it as an example for anything. It wasn't a stupid mistake but a risk, it was a player, bathed in Spanish culture, trying to work his way up in a big club and a place where the quality of life is better than the one in Hungary. Tried, never made his mark, now he's onto other things that will be much more obscure
If he enjoys living in Europe, then fair play to him. If he's happy in his environment then I can't fault him for doing what he did. The problem is that, from a career perspective, this is a terrible move. I'm assuming that he wants to be part of the national team in the future. It doesn't make sense to play in Hungary compared to Japan if he wants exposure. Aguirre is more likely to be seen at a J-League match rather than one in Hungary. Ibusuki may not be the player that Aguirre is initially scouting, but he may catch Aguirre's eye at a match in which he is not the intended target. If he expects to be scouted in Hungary, then he will need to put up some impressive numbers to even catch Aguirre's attention. In my opinion its all about ease of access and putting yourself out there. Why would you limit your opportunities to be seen in Hungary when you can be seen almost every week in Japan?
