Daizen-san. 親愛なる大善さん、私たちの特別なサッカーチーム、グラスゴー・セルティックF.C.の活躍を支えてくれた特別な技術と努力に感謝します。私たちサポーターは、あなたの誠実さ、勤勉さ、勝利への意欲が大好きです。あなたは紳士であり、セルティックF.C.の信用でもある。Thank-you so much, Daizen-san, for all you give to the Celtic team every time you wear The Hoops!!
Phenomenal player 💚🤍🧡
Another thing about the dude is if the floodlights ever go out we could just hook him up , he could power the whole of scotland!! I dont think ive ever seen someone as explosive but with the reserves of energy maeda has. He comes off the pitch not having broke a sweat and lookingblike hes ready foelr a jog home…..to japan! 😅
When or if he does part ways with his hair, Celtic tv should make a video of maeda and broony going for a baldy heed together sharing hun skelping stories. HH
Hes the fittest player i have ever witnessed … fitter than a butcher's dog ….he must have lungs the size of Tokyo ..he never is out of breath even after those 60+ yard sprints ,every game….jeez ! Its all so natural and easy to him ….
Hunskelper
Love Maeda he will be the hardest player to replace in this current squad not a single player on earth like him HH 🍀
Maeda might not be looked by clubs down south (thank god) bit he is priceless to us. King on the Wing!!! 🥰

Seems like he's in good spirits playing for Celtic this far. Keep up the good work man! Good luck on Sunday 👍
Joe hart said di kept himself to himself and he never got to know him. This guy is the terminator 😂
Daizen is like a machine. He never looks tired. A complete athlete. 💚🍀💚🎌🏴🎌
Kicked back with his feet up in CaptainDisappointed's head! Same again tomorrow Daizen!
Love Maeda. His work rate is inspiring.
He’s trying to get faster? 😳 oh ffs 😂
Some difference when the interviewer asks decent questions, instead of the crap we listen to week in week out with the Scottish journos.
