Thanks for sharing!
In my opinion, a more fluid system is better when you have players at the level Hansi Flick has. Still, this is more applied for when your team has the ball. Even Barcelona defends in a structured way.
Rigidly structured teams are better for less-than-stellar players...
I think/hope is just exhaustion. I think/hope what Ashito is feeling is cramps and not pain because of a possible injury. Of course, exhaustion increases the chances of an injury, but let's hope for the best.
However dramatized it is in here, I can resonate with this. I believe had enough talent to be a professional football player, but ultimately, I didn't make it. I saw some of my teammates who had less talent than me become professionals.
The main difference was that I had other alternatives...
I feel bad for Seok-Kyung. For some reason, she likes MC, but he treats her as just a tool of convenience. I'd love to see if the author used her to bring some humanity to the MC since he's like a robot.
I think it's a bit dramatized since it's a manga. Usually, the cuts are made at the end of the season or just after the preseason, based on my own experience and those of other people I know. Of course, I didn't play for Barcelona or another team of that calibre, so I can't tell for sure.
I don't really like the MC. He's too aggressive and insensible yet people are kind to him. It seems there will be character development of some sorts and I'm looking forward to it.
Thank you, @princess_daphie (and to the author as well)!
It was so sweet and it ended well, but I'd love to see he solving his relationship issues with his daughter.
I'm finding this manga hilarious, though I didn't read the original Hokuto no Ken and don't get most references to it. The other premises are so good they left me wanting more. I'm even tempted to start reading Hokuto no Ken.
