I saw “Japan first country to qualify for 2026 Word Cup” and quickly clicked on the line-up for their win against Bahrain. Neither Daizen Maeda nor Reo Hatate made it off the bench.
Japan top their group with 19 points, Australia are second, nine points adrift. Reo and Daizen did not get into the team because Japan have an ever-expanding talent pool of excellent players to choose from.
Celtic used links to City Football Group to align with the Japanese market in 2021. Ange Postecoglou, Koygo, Daizen and Reo came and transformed the club. The years since would be unrecognisable without this influence from Japan. Despite this, Japan is no longer on our radar; Korea has also slipped from our scope.
We had First Mover Advantage in 2021. The value available may not be exactly the same as then, but it feels like we have walked away from the richest seam of talent we have seen pull on Celtic shirts in decades.

That was painful listening to the HT analysis, talking dross and blaming Tony for second goal when Robertson left the young Greek on his todd 🤔
Watching the Scotland game, kind of expected Greece to attack. Good to see Naismith, the failure trying to blame Ralston. Failed.
Anyway, not my first team , so …
All the old anti Celtic players in a Scottish jersey raises its ugly head again , how many
Times has us auld heads seen and heard this .
Shop window Christie sells the jersies😂
And that is the end of Scotland’s place in Group A.
What did I just say?
0-3
Oh well that’s that
0-3, must be Calmac’s fault.
Disappointed with Adam’s , Christie and McLean . Haven’t seen much of them tonight .
Willie Miller on the wireless far better analyst than the tv crew, said midfield found wanting
Any suggestions as to when Scotland last had a really good centre forward? A player that was true international class?
Haven’t paid much attention to internationals since the 90s, but the likes of Che Adams look awful compared to what we used to have up front.
He’s kept Christie on the pitch 😂
Crowd booing decision to withdraw Gilmour.
Living proof that newspaper headlines are given more attention than the game in front of you.
Guy has been dreadful.

The hun media looks for ways to blame the Tank for both goals. Naismith is a small brain stuck inside a baked potato.
‘small brain stuck inside a baked potato.’……….😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yip awful, those three taken off would be my choice too
Ferguson gives young Karatsas a backhander,
Just on…. booked
KT will get blamed for anything noo.
KT bringing a bit of width on the left side
Robertson’s had a stinker too.
Need to find a goal from somewhere, get a cross over to big Hirst
Lost interest now, aff to the history channels…
How much does the SFA charge these mugs to watch this?

McGinn and Christie been anonymous. Blood and snotters football failing against skilful Greeks.
Robbo aff
I rarely watch a Scotland game. What difference does it make it they stay in the top group?
KT has made a wee difference going forward, but final ball not quite there
Looks like a feta accompli
It’s been a Greek tragedy
What a terrible commentator McLeod on bbc Scotland is.

🫤That was bad…even for you

Virtually no difference other than easier group games in 2 seasons.
KT lines up long throw….Greeks retreat into box…
Nobody comes for the short throw in loads a space…

Jota asked Bada Bing for a selfie 😂
