    I said yesterday his pressing had a big hand in McGregor's goal. Look where he runs from to win it. Runs into the box, then runs from the penalty spot to the right wing to dispossess the hun, before the ball falls loose to McGregor.

    You can see it around 1:20 on this video.

    When we first signed Kyogo I remember watching him play for us and thinking * kind of pressing machine have we just signed.

    Then we were linked with Maeda and I saw his pressing stats and stats for number of sprints per game in Japan. His stats far far exceeded Kyogo’s. It was at that moment I knew we were signing an absolute head the ball lunatic of a man. And I absolutely love him for it.

    For all his energy on the pitch, he comes across as very calm off it. :)

    He's an absolute maniac. Superhuman levels of pressing.

    I hope he never wants to leave as nobody will be able to catch him.

    Absolute nightmare to play against, halfway across the pitch then * take their eyes off him and he just appears on their shoulder half a second later, like one of those * angels from doctor who.

    He is class. What he lacks technically, he well and truly more than makes up for it with the work he puts in. Him and Kyogo set the tone for the whole team to press.
