Great blog.

It's interesting to note that Asia is a fairly miserly confederation, as I pointed out in my blog before last. The Japanese can't score, we don't really do so either, but for the most part we all defend reasonably well.

If you combined the best elements of the Australian and Japanese sides, you still wouldn't have strikers proven at an international level... unless you count Kewell.

That said; Jesus has done pretty well in Japan - maybe if they naturalised him they think they'd win the cup? :D
