would be a great signing and great for marketing in Japan. Good back up and great for the bench.

he's been growing at such a rapid pace, I think He could be a starter soon. He was the ONE bright spot in VVV's fight against relegation last year. Cant recall him having a bad game.

They learn english in japan at school, i really would love a japanese player here. Real hard workers and their players amd national team are getting better and better

Interesting one this. By far the best defender in a very poor Dutch eredivisie team. Guess will only really be in for him, if Heitinga moves on.

We need to exploit the Asian markets.

LI Ties revenue was insane.

1 year left of his contract. Could be interesting.

Don't really think we need another centre-half unless Heitinga goes.

Very much doubt it, but having a player called Yoshi would be awesome.

Pies to be replaced with Sushi at half time ???? Yuk !!

Why would english be a pre-requisite in an EPL team at the moment...?

Haha, the exact same thing crossed my mind too.

This is one of those "random enough to be true" sort of rumours.

And it's not from Twitter. So it ticks every box for me.

If he can crane kick Gerrard in the derby it's a yes from me.

I'd love a Japanese player. I really like their national team because of it's professional, blue collar manner. That and they're the Blue Samurai. And I agree, have a player named Yoshi would be awesome.

I don't think it's as far fetched as people believe. It would allows him to develop and adjust as 4th choice cb. If this is distains last season. He could come straight in next season. Plus if he could play defensive mid as well. He would apply to moyes ethos of players playing a number of positions!
