Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Matsui set up the equalizer in yesterday's game. He is taking the first place again in the France League assist ranking. http://sports.fr/fr/football/d1/2006/passeurs/classement1.html 1 Daisuke Matsui Le Mans Milieu 27 7 Here is the video clip. It's awesome. http://youtube.com/watch?v=gn_goxuayqo

Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Nice movie. Matsui has probably been the best european Japanese player this season, no? He might not be as good as Nakamura on his day but he has been so consistant. He is surely a starter for Japan now.
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Indeed. He is the only Japanese who can dribble past class defenders in international level. But Zico favors Alex and didn't let Daisuke play any minutes in the last friendly, Japan vs Bosnia.
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 I think Hasebe is a good dribbler. Liked his move before crossing for an assist in the Urawa game.
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Hamburg is out of UEFA-Cup! They won 3:1, but in the first game they lost 0:2 Takahara didnt play
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Oh really? hmm..stupid me I didnt see, the match so i looked at the videotext and there i didnt saw that Takahara came in. thanks for info
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Takahara sucks. It's really shame that many people regard him as Japan's No 1 striker just because he plays for Hamburg. I hope he gets injured!!!!
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 He's better Yanagisawa and Suzuki...he's a good team player too who works hard. No comment on the injured part.
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Hamburg won away against Wolfsburg 0:1 Takahara didnt play and now im sure that he didnt play
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Agreed, but Me and ishikawa18 have a bais towards Takahara But Takahara was finally given his chance this season and did not take advantage. He should have left in winter
Re: Japanese Abroad 2005-2006 Are you Japanese , do you support Japan, i doubt it. if you did then you certainly wouldn't wish an injury for a fellow countryman
