2021-25 Furuhashi | Hatate | Maeda | Yamada | Inamura @ Celtic F.C. (SCO)

nah, Ueda is always the starting striker when fit. His hold up play, link play, finishing and set-piece advantage is too big. And on the wing Maeda is competing with Mitoma and Nakamura. So likely he will be a sub as usual, but could start depending on the matchup.

 

Maeda scores again, to equalize. 1-1 in Motherwell. If we lose, it's totally over, mathematically. We need to win tonight to take it to the last game.

 

Daizen is the god of Scottish football. Time running out, and he scores to put us 2-1 up.

 

Yes !!!! Maeda is the best ! What a form he have !

My friend is sitting in a pub in Ireland right now, he text my right now, he never see people freaking and celebrating that out .

 

Italian commentators said that Scottish PL give player of the year prize too early. Maeda deserved it.

As now Ueda + Maeda = 39 goal

Probably 40+ goals at the end. I hope they can score some at WC.

 

Maeda is in incredible form. 7 goals + 1 assist out of the last 5 important games.

 

Maeda truly a special player, what a way to end the season and win the title with his goal, will no doubt go down as a club legend

 

I dub the last 6 games the "Last charge of the Samurai". What form, and what timing for it.

 

MON called Daizen's last 6 games Larsson-esque. Now, in the Cup final, he chipped the keeper, like Larsson had done to Rangers once.

 

Maedas form the last month is ********ing fantastic. He will be a legend after this.
And to think it was not the case in the beginning of the season.

 

Let's say Maeda's focus is like this for Japan, and I see no reason it wouldn't be, he's a serious, focused man. There will be Bayern, At. Madrid etc. fighting for him! And Japan will win the WC!

 

In this form Maeda should start for Japan instead of Ueda. Crazy that have the luxury to say that ^^. Especially against Netherlands, his pressing and work rate is unreal and now he scores crazy goals like prime Okazaki and smile also that way.

 

3-5-2 with both of them up top. I think very few defenses would survive.
