    I agree we need 4 major signings but there's literally nothing easily achievable in those 4 names..

    Dislike him as a player. I think we can do better. And if we want to improve then we have to.

    Can’t wait for the big ride to bless himself at Ibrox, after 90 mins of sending Cantwell into mid air.

    Even considering the usual profile of Asian CB, Kobayashi wasn't even much rated in Japan before he arrived here.. average defender coming off a poor season at Kobe.

    Aye. Knew it wasn’t a good sign when at the first Google of his name, a different player altogether shows up. :56:

    Welcome.

    We do need another strong defender.

    Arrogance on Anges part that any * with a bit of technical ability from the J League could fit into our side..

    All the successes (Hatate, Kyogo, Maeda etc) were the best players in the league before coming here.

    Being fair the only issue I have with signing Kobayashi is the length of contract. He was a free on relatively low wages but he should never have been given a 5 year deal.

    We are now in the situation where we need to suss out what to do with him. Surely he will at least leave on loan until January when we can hopefully sell him back to Japan or allow one of those teams to just take him back.

    Alternatively STVV in Belgium sign some amount of players from Japan would they take him on loan, with an option to buy.

    The last option I would consider is send him to Admira Wacker to play regularly and see what comes of that he is still only 23.

    A bigger concern for me would be that we apparently had been scouting for a left footed centre back and he was the best option we could come up with.

    As you say if you sum up our transfers from J league Kyogo was top scorer at the time, Maeda ended the season joint top scorer and Hatate was in team of the year. Iwata (jury is still out) but voted league MVP. Ideguchi there was even the reasoning he had been a standout the season before particularly against Ange’s team and he cost less than £1m to try but Kobayashi for 5 years was a strange one.

    First time Rodgers has said he knew the player before we signed them. Looks great
