Shinji Okazaki

Post by MrTopTier » Wed May 08, 2019 7:02 pm

Released by Leicester, age now 33. Always a name that gets banded about at a transfer window. Should we be interested?

No we shouldn’t. Not by any stretch whatsoever.

Can lock this thread now, shouldn’t be any more to add...

We desperately need youth not these old age pensioners ( in football terms)

Always liked his industry but he doesn’t score goals. A few years ago I’d have been interested but we’ve moved on and he’s got older. Not a chance.

Yes, sign him and several other Japanese players, guaranteeing live coverage of every game here in Japan. Just keep him on the bench.

No. He didn't score at all in 2018 or 2019. Peter Crouch has scored two Premier League goals since Okazaki last scored one.

Him and Crouch up front with Charlie Adam playing behind them would be good

Definitely not as we can't afford to give up 350 seats to the Japanese media
