Suggestion on twitter he played wing back last season

The skill at 3:57 here is particularly impressive

So glad I checked that timestamp

Does look like the sort of player who might disappear for periods in a game.

F*ck the skills; I want some of those goalposts that flash bright pink when someone bangs one in.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

He’s said goodbye to his team mates

After a nice meal and past his curfew?

Based on what exactly?

 

[woody11462]

Would. ove if they brought in a Japanese commemtator alongside Eakin.

I take it you didn't check the timestamp.

My first thought watching that clip. Have the option of Japanese commentary on iFollow. Winner.

 

[napolimp]

Cheeky bastard!


Can see him getting his legs broken if he tries that at Millwall or Leeds.

Sakamoto getting a hand from Fadz next season...

Waiting for Andy Turner to run an exclusive on this thread later today.

And have him go large like match of the day

 

[Marty]

Never heard of him, but should be a massive commercial success for the club. Make shirt sales to the Japanese as easy as possible.

Looks like a great player, I would happily have him here.

Has this ever been a thing outside Football Manager?

 

[ovduk78]

Looks like he always wears number 17 so that's Vik's shirt number taken

Just look at the crowd at a Spurs game and you'll have an answer.

The volume of South Korean fans and flags at games to see Son is testament to it.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Does this mean we will have a sushi food outlet on the concourse

Interesting bit of useless trivia . KV Oostende have a nightclub built within their stadium that is open till 5am on night games
Come on Doug , what you waiting for

Coventry has a decent sized student population from the Far East. I wonder what the breakdown of it is by nationality? Mostly Chinese I guess?

Think there's a fair number of Koreans as well but my guess would be Japanese numbers are fairly small compared to those two.

Son is a huge celebrity and national hero in South Korea, where the Premier League is already very popular. We really expect something similar for a guy with two Japanese caps playing in the Championship?

If only he owned the stadium.

He's got a good hilights reel on YouTube, he must be decent.

No absolutely not.

I meant more that the experience isn't limited to FM generally and that Asian markets can be incredibly lucrative.

Can’t move for KV Oostende shirts in Kyoto!

Chinese or Korean students would definitely not be interested in a Japanese player.

But he would be a great signing. Any Japanese overseas players generate huge interest in Japan as they are all seen as potentials for the national team. If he makes an impact, we could expect Japanese TV crews at the CBS on a regular basis.

Any new Japanese supporters would be fanatical.

No red cards either.

Yes though he's a massive star there isn't he

Big expert on Japanese media trends are you then, Harry?
