やらないよりはやってみよう。

横浜FCの降格が決定しましたね。

英語の方には書かなかったこと（妄想）を磐田を中心に。

犬塚が左利きだったら浦和は即オファーですよ。上下動のスピードとスタミナがあるし。

ファブリシオはいい選手なのかそうでないのか。スピードや驚くようなパスセンスが
あるってわけでもないけど、中盤でのリーダーシップとカウンターのドリブルは光ってました。
PK終了後、岡田審判に延々と拍手を続けていたら逆鱗に触れたようでレッドをもらって
ました。あのレッドカードは来年の公式戦に持ち越すのかな？

一体、前田遼一の首はどういう構造になっているのか！？今日の得点はもちろん、
CKにファーからニアまで移動して自分の後方のゴールを狙う器用さを見せていたし。
体格のわりにはポジショニングと正確さでヘディングが強い。鹿島全盛期の
長谷川祥之を彷彿とさせる選手です。個人的には是非オシムジャパンに呼んで欲しい。

来年は清水と並んで静岡勢はかなり手強くなりそうだ…！

Honda of Kashima Antlers decided to quit.

Though he is not a player of Urawa, he is one of the players who gave me vivid impression. He is not a good dribbler, but his defensive effort contributed a lot to Japan national team of Kamo's era and of course to Kashima's victorious history. When ball players like Maezono in international matches were big names, he was not in spotlight, but his defensive attitude enabled them shine. In J league, when Brazilians in local matches show skills in front and fullbacks duo Soma and Narahashi deeply run flanks, Honda was meters away from the show, preparing next enemy strike.

As Yamaguchi, then Yokohama Flugels player, earned defensive midfield position in national team, he faded away from international career. I don't know much about his recent form and Kashima has been a bit dull so far in title battle since it was beaten by Urawa in Nabisco final. I guess he has been frustrated at being short of titles for years as he knows too much about winning history of Kashima and it is a bit sad that such a self-sacrificing player ends his career when Osim's philosophy of covering and moving is highly praised.

Anyway, I heard he would stay in Kashima as a staff and I hope his experience boost up the younger Antlers mentality and put the team in title race again.

Thank you for your devotion to local league and national team, Honda!

As the season closed, transfer market is opened in Japan.

Hiromi Hara returned back home and heads rolled on Yokohama's pitch. Brawling rumors seem never stopping in Urawa.

Let me pick some. Ahem, this is just my imagination and not based on any truth.

One. Will Abe join Urawa? As an Urawa fan, it sounds so exciting! If such a talented player join in, Reds defense can be more solid and attaking can be more tacful.
But, How about Abe joining Gamba Osaka, if Miyamoto transfers? Gamba Osaka can increase its attacking options, more than just replaces Miyamoto with another good DF. J title race will surely heat up!

Then, where is Nakanishi going? I don't know much about his recent form, but he is also a good utility player with experinece. It will be very interesting to see him lining up with other veterans in Yokohama FC! He is not a stranger to them and passing his own experience into younger players make the team stronger.

At last, Morioka is a good buy to a lot of teams, I guess. Though he could not do much in 2002, he was definitely one of the best contributors to fame of Asian Cup under Troussier. Honestly, I think he deserves Urawa's intrest, even though automatic starting slot is hardly warranted. He can be any DF in 3- or 4-line and his leading roll experience in Shimizu and national team do much in ACL, I believe.

Only God knows what happnes next....

65th.


I just met a friend and enjoyed talk so much.
I really admire her because she is always capable of finding positive sides of things and people, and always doing best even under difficult circumstances.
I don't say, I will do the same, but her atttude made me moved and happy.


Then.... Japan national team lost.
I just watched 2nd half and found Zico's squad surely lacked a luck. But more than just a luck, the Zico's choice still shows limited options of the players and I think that led to today's result.


Ogasawara is always in front when foregin-based playmakers are not available, but I wonder he deserved position today. Is it too much to expect others like Yokohama's Yamase or Omiya's Fujimoto or Sakurai to replace him?
Moreover, is Alex untouchable? Murai, today's backup, or Kashima's Araiba can't do the same or more?
Of course I want to see Japan win, but please don't forget to test the plenty of talents just like Tanaka and Maki were tested today.
