SO nice to see Japanese players doing well this season…. but check out Gamba’s Leandro, staking a claim for Player of the Season if he carries on like this – certainly saving a team’s J1 status qualifies, no!? Let’s see if he can get another 6 or 7 goals and Gamba stay up in the last 7 games – if that happens there can be no other MVP for me!

What do YOU think?
