Hi there, I would like to ask you about the previous coach of Kashima Antlers (From 2000-2005), Cerezo. what are his advantages? what is his preferred tactic(4-4-2/3-5-2/4-5-1/etc)? does he like defensing/attacking or balanced? does he have a strong/weak personality? I would be grateful if you could briefly describe him to me especially that you have seen him for 5 years. Thanks alot
Best players in J-League? Sorry for sounding like a complete newb to Japanese soccer, but I'm trying to follow J-League soccer this season, and have nooooo idea who the best players in the league are. Any help/assistance would be great. Domo Arigato.
Re: Best players in J-League? J.League Best 11 - 2006 GK: Yoshikatsu Kawaguchi (Jubilo Iwata) DF: Satoshi Yamaguchi (Gamba Osaka) Tulio (Urawa Reds) Akira Kaji (Gamba Osaka) MF: Keita Suzuki (Urawa Reds) Yuki Abe (JEF United Chiba) Hiroyuki Tanaguchi (Kawasaki Frontale) Kengo Nakamura (Kawasaki Frontale) Yasuhito Endo (Gamba Osaka) FW: Washington (Urawa Reds) Magno Alves (Gamba Osaka) Rookie of the Year Jungo Fujimoto (Shimizu S-Pulse)
Informations on J-League Do you know where i can find a list of injured players or unavailable players for each teams before the game on saturday and sunday? I am not really good in japanese so i can't use nikkansports...
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Pains me to say it, but probably yes. Albirix Nigata fans could give them a run for their money though
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Most of the J-league teams do have great support though. But yes, I'd say the Reds, maybe followed by Albirex and Frontale.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Actually Kashiwa has one of the best fans in J. However the problem with Kashiwa is that their stadium cap is very small (12K).
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? I'd like to see how many fans would follow Frontale if they move to a mid-chart, anonymous position... By the way, it hurts to say it, but Kansai teams' fans are not that great. The quality might be there, but the numbers are very low. It might be due to competition with the baseball teams... perhaps...
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? From someone who watches from afar, Id say Urawa Reds. They have n umbers, and thier coordination is extraordinary. Thier fans are one of the reasons Ive become a fan of J-league soccer, and the Reds. Us DC United supporters are damn good too, but we dont have the huge numbers. 20,-25,000 per game, but only 1000-3000 of that are the supporters clubs that stand, jump, sing.. etc.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Urawa easily. 2000 fans came from Japan for the Sydney VS Urawa match last month, the fans are very good. I'm looking to buy a Urawa scarfe on the internet
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? maybe you should come japan,for away game i'll be at the hard core stand Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? urawa,albirex,,kashiwa,shimizu,vegalta sendai that come first to add.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? I should be joining you on my trip there soon. Yeah, I think a lot of Frontale's rah rah probably comes from the insane success they've had these 2 seasons. Still, looking real good for now anyway.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Best, may be not, but most suffering fans award without a doubt goes to Cerezo Osaka.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Urawa do have the the best support but alot of their fan base in recent years has come from the fact that they are the most trendy team to support therefore people have jumped on the bandwagon, although even in their J2 days their fans were pretty rabid. With kawasaki its kinda the same, we've only become a stylish team to support since last season.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? well maybe if my team melbourne play urawa one day in acl i might go for away trip
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Fans from J 2 league may be. Despite of Japanese football quality (low), J 2 league fans are nice unlike fans from Turkey or China.
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? Personally speaking..........not counting Omiya, Shonan and Albirex are the nicest Verdy Jubilo and Urawa are the worst In terms of support Albirex, Urawa, and Sendai are probably the 3 best groups
Re: Who are the J.League's Best Fans? The happiest Fans award goes to Kashiwa Reysol promoted and now top o' the leaque
Please Help.... J-league info Hello, I have recently been on various team websites, and have tried to look for the clubs youth team office contact information but have had no such luck. Since I go to the english version of the page, i cant find any info, since this version is very barebone. If anyone can find any contact number that would be great!! Even if it is not a club, but rather another person that can help me find it, that would be appreciated. The language barrier is really taking a toll. Regards
Please Help.... J-league info Any J1- or high ranked J2 team. But preferably teams located in and around Tokyo like FC Tokyo Tokyo Verdy Yokohama Marinos Yokohama FC Omiya Ardija Urawa Reds But as of now, i will settle for any phone numbers or email addressess. Thanks!!
