Tokyo, very central, work in Roppongi Hills
Most Japanese have no idea who we are, unless they know a bit about the Premier League, but with it being on at midnight, it's tricky unless they are ardent fans. Some friends who are quite into football still are not sure who we are, which on one hand I find astonishing but on the other hand I realise is simply due to everyone being into the big teams and the rest are simply 'the opposition'.
However, if you remind them that Kagawa scored a hattrick last season and then let them know it was against us, most of them have a better idea of who we are.
They have a morning update of what Kagawa did the day before, every day on morning TV...not sure it's very interesting but I don't watch it anyway; I only watch footy, blu-rays or PS3 on my telly; Japanese telly is tosh...
But simple fact is, if we bought a Japanese player, we would be live on telly every game. Same happened with the kid Bolton loaned from Arsenal - Bolton were on every week (I think it was Bolton...)
