Maya Yoshida moved to Southampton to grow as a player in the Premier League
10:01am Tuesday 18th September 2012 in Sport Exclusive By Sean Carroll
Maya Yoshida in action for Saints at Arsenal
HE may have had a baptism of fire in his earlier-than-expected debut at Arsenal on Saturday, but any Saints fans who caught a Japan match at the London Olympics will have reason to believe that in signing Maya Yoshida the club have completed an astute piece of business .
As well as being the main man at the heart of defence for the full national side – who are well on the way to qualifying for the Brazil 2014 World Cup finals and have conceded just once in their four games in the final stage of qualifying – Yoshida was also selected as an over-age player and entrusted with the captain’s armband as Japan finished fourth at this summer’s Games.
Speaking after his country’s 1-0 victory over Iraq in Saitama last Tuesday, the 24- year-old was eager to get acquainted with his new teammates as quickly as possible.
“I’m really excited to play for Saints in the Premier League, but first I have to know what I should do and how the team are going to play,” he said.
“I’m already a little late to join the team so I need to communicate well with my teammates.”
Jos Hooiveld’s injury in the opening half-an-hour at the Emirates Stadium meant Yoshida was thrown straight in at the deep end, and there can’t be many tougher games to make your first appearance in.

In the longer-term, though, the former Nagoya Grampus player shouldn’t have too many problems with communication, as he speaks excellent English having spent two years in Holland with VVV Venlo.
He agreed that his time in the Eredivisie had helped on that front, although is a little concerned that the difference between the lowlands and south coast versions of the language may differ slightly.
“I think I’m too used to speaking Dutch English, so I’ll have to study native English again,” he said with a grin.
“The Premier League is one of my great targets and, of course, Tadanari Lee is playing [for Saints] as well and I think that will help me.”
Yoshida has sounded out his compatriot Lee, pictured left, who missed the end of last season and start of this due to a broken metatarsal but is now available for selection again, about anything and everything ahead of the move.
“Of course, I asked him many things: about housing, the teammates, the coach and the culture,” Yoshida said.
“Southampton is a very nice place.
“In the south, not far from London and I think I can buy Japanese food. And nearby there’s a port, so there will be a nice view, I think.”
Japanese players moving to England are often wary of the local cuisine, but Yoshida is keen to embrace all aspects of his new surroundings and is confident that it may actually be an improvement on his diet for the last couple of years.
“I will try, and I hope English food is much better than Dutch food,” he said. “I think many people say that English food is not so good but [that’s true of] Dutch food as well.”
On top of his advice from Lee, Yoshida has also received words of encouragement from Japan’s star player Keisuke Honda.
The CSKA Moscow player’s career has followed a similar path to that of Saints’ new defender, and having left Nagoya for Venlo and then moved onto bigger things the bleached-blond midfielder is sure his countryman has what it takes to be a success in England.
“I think he has the confidence to play in the Premier League and I think he’ll play well,” he said during Japan’s recent training camp.
“The most important thing is that he should have confidence.
“He shouldn’t change anything, he should just believe in himself.”
There should be few concerns on that front, and Yoshida himself is well aware of what he needs to do to help Saints achieve longterm success back in the top flight.
“I think the Premier League is a much, much higher level than the Eredivisie, so I have to get used to the speed and physicality,” he said.
“That’s why I chose the Premier League and I think I will grow up more – for myself and for the World Cup in Brazil.”
As well as focusing on what he needs to do personally, the 6-foot-2-inch defender also made sure that he knew all about his new club before his arrival, watching clips of their games and swotting up on some recent history.
“I saw highlights [of the Manchester United match],” said Yoshida. “Of course they conceded two goals right at the end of the game but before that they played very well, I think.
“The Saints came from the second division but [previously] they stayed for a long time in the Premier League.
They had a financial problem and went down to the third division but two years later they came back to the Premier League – they have a lot of ambition.”
He is hopeful that he can now help the club complete its recovery and once again become a top flight mainstay.
“There are new owners and they have good ambitions, and I have also,” he declared.

another chapter to the deathly saga of the blue fewer and fewer.
Mr. Bassini, formerly Bazini, took over Watford Football Club in a £440,000 takeover, on 31 May 2011 when the club's previous parent company, Watford Leisure PLC was de-listed from the London Stock Exchange.
Bassini was made bankrupt in 2007 following the failure of a business, The Fox at Ibstone near High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, which is now the Fox Country Inn. He was bankrupt for about a year and it was because of this bankruptcy, that he changed his name from Bazini to Bassini to "have a fresh start"
Bassini was due to meet the fans at the annual Fans Forum on 8 November 2011 but had to cancel due to illness. He had to also cancel a subsequent phone in on 22 November 2011 - again due to ill health.
In June 2012, Bassini sold Watford Football Club to Giampaolo Pozzo, owner of Udinese and Granada.
Strikes me they are made for each other. I was in the Chainrai camp but this has definately swayed me!

Bassini has been working with a certain Mr Andrew Andronikou.

Truth was Jesus was at New Fratton Park and fed all the bestest bestest ever anywhere bestest in the world ever fans (TM) with 5 loaves and 2 fish - infact there was quite a bit left over due to the Fewness of them.
Unfortunately, although usually known for their honesty, the bestest etc distorted the story over the generations in embarrassment of their poor numbers (even though they were greater back then having just bought the Gospel Cup).
There is a darker side to the story in circulation regarding events involving the fish but I shall save that for another time due to the deletion police!

Reporting on Newsnow, Saints are considering making a move for Craig Gordon and dropping K D. They would be able to do this as Gordon is a free agent. Gordon states he has got over his injury problems and is ready for a fresh challange.
Any comments from you guys ??.
KD is OK but OK isnt good enough.And to be honest we have no backup.
If he is over his injuries ,and he,s had a few,its just his wages to contend with.
Bit of a no brainer .
NA should be a good judge of his ability.

No offence meant - I like loads of the stuff he's done: the earth, the planets, the animals, the people... they're all top TOP inventions. I just think his reactions are a bit over the top sometimes.
whats he ever done for us!!
Plus of course - the Saints.
I wonder why He didn't think to make sperm taste like chocolate?

Reporting on Newsnow, Saints are considering making a move for Craig Gordon and dropping K D. They would be able to do this as Gordon is a free agent. Gordon states he has got over his injury problems and is ready for a fresh challange.
Any comments from you guys ??.

The future is bright with the MIGHTY SOUTHAMPTON.
After watching everton's work rate last night - I won't accept those that say we cannot compete with teams that have spent millions on players.
We have also spent millions - our 2 most expensive players add up to 20 million worth of spending.
We need to be ready for Villa.
The Saints Supportes DEMAND A WIN and will be behind the manager and Team.
wet spam are doing well with limited spending and although they have not played the Top Teams they have points in the bag.

I have it on good authority that the 'feeding of the multitude' is in fact a myth.
Truth was Jesus was at New Fratton Park and fed all the bestest bestest ever anywhere bestest in the world ever fans (TM) with 5 loaves and 2 fish - infact there was quite a bit left over due to the Fewness of them.
Unfortunately, although usually known for their honesty, the bestest etc distorted the story over the generations in embarrassment of their poor numbers (even though they were greater back then having just bought the Gospel Cup).
There is a darker side to the story in circulation regarding events involving the fish but I shall save that for another time due to the deletion police!

No, I thought not; selective amnesia just like Twadkins on TV on Saturday night claiming that you have "scored in every game" this season. (Wigan anybody?) As for the subject of the original article: "leregation crause? What does it mean about saraly after leregation?"Come on Swindon.
Like the comment earlier about Saints being Arsenals training kit. Remember when you were ? ...2009...only difference is you were at home HAHHAHA

Completely unrelated point which quite surprisingly noone has actually mentioned yet. Anyone remember Spurs a few years ago? 2 points from 8 games. Going on how their season ended up we should be in the champions league by the end of the year.

I sincerely hope not.
But I have felt the threat of foreign coach coming here since just before the Champions League Final. I think Nicola would prefer a European to an Englishman if he sees Saints as a top 6 team with a host of imported players.

The Daily Star says Saints are after Rafa Benitez to replace Nigel.
I sincerely hope not.

But I have faith that he has enough class about him to give the current boss and his newly created squad time to sort things out.
I truly beleive that any speculation is just a press puff. I do not think Adkins has anything to worry about unless we are bottom at Christmas. I also believe with equal passion that we will be at least seven places higher than where we are now by Christmas and at least eleven places higher by the end of the season.
It's all about belief, passion for the club, and perspective.

You hire a function room, give everyone loads of wine, gather people together for a quick reading and then ask a couple of people if they'll agree to watch out for the child in question and then everyone carries on drinking wine. It's essentially the same as a christening but without a priest bringing the mood down by banging on about 'sin' or pouring water all over the baby.
