imagine being from Japan and having to put up with Ben Wilson..

bit of a culture shock

[SBT]

Who's creepily stalking the players? Grim.

I think this is why the team wasn’t exactly thrilled about fans shadowing them on every stage of this trip.

 

[SkyBlueSam01]

Who are these two?

Cian Tyler at the back

 

[Ccfcisparks]

BNC ?

It’s Batawani is it not

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

It’s Batawani is it not

If it is Batanwi why would he be hiding his face?

 

[Pusb1]

BNC played in a behind closed doors game for Arsenal against Watford today

 

[fatso]

Ay this rate by the the time he gets his bag off the carousel we'll have sold him to Feyenoord

Sporting have offered 17 million.
Doug said is 20 or fuck off.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

If it is Batanwi why would he be hiding his face?

Is he not on his phone, rather than hiding his face

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Is he not on his phone, rather than hiding his face

Looks to me as if he is bent over as opposed to on his phone

 

[mmttww]

If it is Batanwi why would he be hiding his face?

Because he's a kid, and probably doesn't enjoy some stranger he doesn't know taking his photo in an unfamiliar foreign airport.

 

[Fysnkysc]

Cian Tyler at the back

You sure? That kid stands at like 6ft 8” tall

No Jamie Allen. Not been back to pre season at all. Would assume he’s injured as remember him taking a knock in the final. Or…will he be on the move?

Take some cash for him after a reasonable season?

Personal reasons it’s been quoted fella

 

[CovLad94]

It’s Batawani is it not

Not Batanwi, looks like Obikwu he has long dreads, darker skin tone to Batanwi

 

[Pusb1]

So

what position are we expecting this guy to play?

RWB?
RW?
CAM

also he's left footed- so LWB?

 

[skyblueelephant76]

can't cofirm it 100% but what other japanese player is likely to be with the team?

Looks exactly like him

 

[Matt smith]

Looks exactly like him

It is him

 

[rexo87]

So so glad we are getting another CAM. Palmer, this geeza and Ohare competing for 2 spots (when Ohare is back) and we don't have to watch Allen try and play that role painfully

[Governmac]

It is him

You sure?

 

[Darth Robins]

Can anyone get close enough to pull a hair so we can get him DNA tested? I thought this place was supposed to be Sky Blue Stalk?

 

[Matt smith]

You sure?

Yes obviously

 

[skyblueelephant76]

In his video his says to call him Tatsu or Saka so we could always steal the Arsenal Saka song (David Bowie - Starman):

There's a starman

Running down the right

His name is Tatsu Saka

And he's f@#%&#@ dynamite

 

[Governmac]

Yes obviously

seem pretty confident it’s him lad. You in Portugal?

 

[False9]

You're probably right, it's bound to be another random Japanese player.

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

How about :

(To the tune of the entertainer)

Sakamoto, moto, moto
We’ve got the best Midfield in the World,
O’hare and Gustavo,
Sheaf, Allen and Palmer
Tatsuhiro Sakamoto!
(Repeat)

Robins is a huge Allen fan , he is often quoted as saying how intelligent he is as regards team set up and players roles .
While I don't think he will get much game time currently I don't think he will be sold , unless we get an offer we can't turn down

 

[Calista]

Genuinely couldn't understand what everyone was talking about, because I thought Ben Wilson was wearing a massive rucksack.

[Finham]

Some of the first touches and passes in that are sublime. Japanese footballers are great nowadays, amazing transformation from when Crisphead went out there. In particular they're very good technically (a legacy from the Brazilians who helped build the league) and they work and work-as you saw from some of his interceptions there. Exciting! I saw one article describe him as a wing-back and got excited at the idea of an inverted wing-back at Coventry! Think we might use him higher up though.

How about :

We stop the corny song suggestions altogether?

 

[rob9872]

Going loco with Tatshuri Sakamoto
His name is quite long
Going loco with Tatshuri Sakamoto
it's quite hard to fit in a song

Definitely best suggestion. Not sold on those particular lyrics, but the first line great shout.

Partypooper

 

[Alkhen]

Genuinely one the most entertaining showreels I've seen from a player linked to us! Could watch that all day.

Whether or not his style will work in our system or against Championship opposition is the key question but.. wow. he looks a bag of tricks

 

[Finham]

People laugh, but I guarantee we end up with some Japanese fans turning up next season! They travel to see their kin too, so not just based in Coventry is our catchment area. I remember some I knew going down to London to see Inamoto.

Of course if a few do turn up, the CBS will never have been tidier.
