Johnny Musicworks Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Whether he is playing in a meaningless fixture (Japan have the group won) is irrelevant. The evidence of the photos having been taken yesterday and the Japanese report saying he is back in training suggest he is still there. There are no reports of him having left the Japanese camp so I think we can assume he is likely to be back in the squad for their next game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hinsleburg Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Getting Adam Nagy DejaVu Injured his ankle on his debut for us (making a brilliant tackle on Eze and scoring!) Unavailable for us but then picked for some big Hungary games, came back more injured and never really got going after that. Without derailing this thread, I wish Nagy was signed to play with Pack and not his replacement, what a Midfield trio with Pack, Nagy and Brownhill, all complimenting each other's strengths and weaknesses... Back to Yu, I hope it's not too bad and I really hope he's not rushed back for us or Japan. The only way he will settle in this league is if he's not rushed and is fully fit, I'm concerned that as it's a loan we'll look to get him back ASAP to see if worth triggering the 'option' we think we have. Let the injury heal, let him settle and slowly integrate him in and think we need patience here as a club and fanbase. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View from the Dolman Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Nikkan Sports report: https://www.nikkansports.com/olympic/paris2024/soccer/news/202407290000287.html including direct quotes from the player himself Quote "Hirakawa Yu's amazing recovery ability: "I don't really understand it myself" "I have hope" for a return" [Nantes, France, 28th (29th Japan time) - Sato Sei] The Japanese men's soccer team for the Paris Olympics, which has advanced to the quarterfinals, arrived in Nantes, the venue for their third match against Israel (30th - 31st Japan time) from Bordeaux the day after their second group stage match against Mali, to prepare for the match. Midfielder Yu Hirakawa (23, Bristol City), who injured his right ankle after a vicious foul by the opponent in the first match against Paraguay, appeared on the pitch and demonstrated that he is making a steady recovery. After jogging in running shoes, he also worked on a routine where he touched a ball and changed into spikes to increase his speed considerably. Regarding his condition, he said, "When I got injured, I had a strong feeling that it would be difficult for me to take part in the Olympics. But with the help of medical staff, I've been able to return to the pitch little by little and my recovery is much faster than expected. I'm getting better every day, which surprises even me. I don't really understand why." He is showing his amazing ability to recover. Regarding the training that day, which was his first on the pitch since his injury, he expressed satisfaction, saying, "I was able to do more than I had imagined." Hirakawa's drastic treatment should come in handy on the Olympic stage. Looking back on his time in the tough Tokyo Division 1 League at Yamanashi Gakuin University, he said, "I was the type of person who would heal my ankle while I was playing. I didn't go to the hospital, and it was a daily routine to play without knowing what was going to happen. The artificial turf was also very bumpy in that league, so I guess it's durable." He says that his experience has helped him to withstand pain, and that he is "hopeful (about returning during the Olympics). I want to do everything for the team," as he continues to prepare to perform well from the quarterfinals onwards. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, assuming it's all true, it shows why people at the HPC shouldn't be divulging information to fans who then stick it on here as absolute fact (in good faith). Simply by undertaking a basic internet search, others have seemingly found information including quotes by the player himself that questions whether that "fact" has any truth to it. This wasn't a club statement that said he's out for a couple of months, it was a club insider putting it out there to fans who might well turn out to be chatting utter bollocks, in good faith or otherwise. Don't divulge it to your mates and you don't look like a dick. What I don't understand is how could the club be unaware this was all happening - the article is two days old. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a problem. We signed him knowing that would be the case anyway. We are very unlikely to see him starting in the first few matches whatever his ankle is like, whether it's 80% or 100%. He's done a single WEEK of training with the club which means we will spend a bit of time integrating him and also gives us time to make sure his injury is absolutely 100% cleared by the time he does his first 90 for us......... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been playing in the J-League, so is match sharp in that respect. The worry would more be latter stages of the season burnout had he not had this lay off. Obviously the injury will see him needing to do a little work to bring him back up to speed, but I'm sure that's what's happening in the Japan Olympic squad anyway. If you were meaning more along the lines of working with the boys on systems and tactics etc then it's no different from signing someone on the last day of the transfer window or in January and playing them straight away.
