@leon_acm Just to let you all know, that Kenneth guy blocked me so I can’t reply. I’m not playing this game with him. Football is a team sport. Which team is better? Rate man for man Korea starting 11 vs Japan’s and no one in Korea gets in.
@BibimBallers@aboutkangin Koreans’ obsession with this average player is something out of this world. Meanwhile, Japanese players all over Japan are scoring on their respective debuts as well, but the reaction is a lot more grounded. Japan has far surpassed Korea.

🇩🇪💫 Keisuke Goto (21) announces himself to the Freiburg fans with a GOAL on his debut in the Conference League.
Scoring in the 98th minute to seal a 3-1 victory against Motherwell, just 18 minutes after coming on.
While at Anderlecht he scored on his Europa League debut too,.Goto just scores goals
Disagree. Mitoma, if not being hampered by injuries, is a more consistent performer. I’m a spurs fan and sometimes Son was frustrating. If he doesn’t score, he doesn’t really provide anything else to the team whereas Mitoma is a hard worker always pressing and forcing defensive errors. Yes, on his day, Son was superb. But week in and week out, Mitoma did what the best wingers do and did it every time ; stretch the defense, and constantly beat his man. He’s scored excellent individual goals on a similar level to Sonny as well, so you’re selling Mitoma short. There’s a reason Bayern and Arsenal are constantly inquiring about him and Brighton rejected a huge bid (don’t remember exact amount but was definitely over 60 million but that’s a low estimate ) from Saudi Arabia.
Let’s be real, acting like Korea's individuals are a tier above is wild. Mitoma, Kubo, and Tomiyasu are on the exact same level as Lee and Kim and that’s being generous as Mitoma has better individual stats compared to Lee. But as a collective? Japan is a far superior team. Look at the FIFA rankings and World Cup depth. It’s not even a debate anymore.
Korean fans need a reality check. Son is world-class, sure but Japan’s team play is world-class while Korea just got dumped in the WC group stage & dropped to 32nd in FIFA rankings. Japan is far superior.
@SamuraiWarriorz Are you forgetting that Mitoma scored against all the top sides in the PL? He’s had a much better individual career than Lee. I’m sorry but your take is ass.
