JOMO Cup 2009 Roster Announced…

And FC Tokyo has nobody on it.  Neither do 8 other J.League teams.  Kashima has 6 players in the all-star lineup plus their manager, Urawa has 3, Gamba and Kawasaki have 2, and a smattering of other teams have one player.

My opinion?  Fuck it, let Kashima’s starting lineup deal with the jet lag and getting the smell of kimchi out of their clothes.  Nobody really seems to be giving Tokyo credit for their post-break comeback, and as far as I’m concerned the fewer teams that see us coming the better.

  • This squad is a real mess i think.
    Ishikawa would really deserved it to go on the pitch as a J.League-Allstar, but you can do anything against Oliviera..:/
    He just look at his own team and don’t see other quality players from Japan.

    Seems like everything is moving against Ishikawa, so he can’t make the next step in his career…
